Interplanetary planar magnetic structures associated with expanding active regions

Planar magnetic structures are interplanetary objects whose magnetic field cannot be explained by Parker's solar wind model. They are characterized by two-dimensional structure of magnetic field that are highly variable and parallel to a plane which is inclined to the ecliptic plane. They appeared independently of interplanetary compression, solar flares, active prominences nor filament disappearances, but the sources often coincided with active regions. On the other hand, it has been discovered by the Yohkoh Soft X-ray telescope that active-region corona expand outwards at speeds of a few to a few tens of km/s near the Sun. The expansions occurred repeatedly, almost continually, even in the absence of any sizable flares. In the Yohkoh Soft X-ray images, the active-region corona seems to expand out into interplanetary space. Solar sources of interplanetary planar magnetic structures observed by Sakigake were examined by Yohkoh soft X-ray telescope. During a quiet period of the Sun from January 6 to November 11, 1993, there found 5 planar magnetic structures according to the criteria (absolute value of Bn)/(absolute value of B) less than 0.1 for planarity and (dB)/(absolute value of B) greater than 0.7 for variability of magnetic field, where Bn, dB, and the absolute value of B are field component normal to a plane, standard deviation, and average of the magnitude of the magnetic field, respectively. Sources of 4 events were on low-latitude (less than 5 degrees) active regions from which loop-like structures were expanding. The coincidence, 80%, is extremely high with respect to accidental coincidence, 7%, of Sakigake windows of solar wind observation with active regions. The last source was on loop-like features which seemed to be related with a mid-latitude (20 degrees) active region.

Expanded Equations for Torque and Force on a Cylindrical Permanent Magnet Core in a Large-Gap Magnetic Suspension System

The expanded equations for torque and force on a cylindrical permanent magnet core in a large-gap magnetic suspension system are presented. The core is assumed to be uniformly magnetized, and equations are developed for two orientations of the magnetization vector. One orientation is parallel to the axis of symmetry, and the other is perpendicular to this axis. Fields and gradients produced by suspension system electromagnets are assumed to be calculated at a point in inertial space which coincides with the origin of the core axis system in its initial alignment. Fields at a given point in the core are defined by expanding the fields produced at the origin as a Taylor series. The assumption is made that the fields can be adequately defined by expansion up to second-order terms. Examination of the expanded equations for the case where the magnetization vector is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry reveals that some of the second-order gradient terms provide a method of generating torque about the axis of magnetization and therefore provide the ability to produce six-degree-of-freedom control.

Double Layers in Expanding Plasmas and Their Relevance to the Auroral Plasma Processes

When a dense plasma consisting of a cold and a sufficiently warm electron population expands, a rarefaction shock forms. In the expansion of the polar wind in the magnetosphere, it has been previously shown that when a sufficiently warm electron population also exists, in addition to the usual cold ionospheric one, a discontinuity forms in the electrostatic potential distribution along the magnetic field lines. Despite the lack of spatial resolution and the assumption of quasi-neutrality in the polar wind models, such discontinuities have been called double layers (DLs). Recently similar discontinuities have been invoked to partly explain the auroral acceleration of electrons and ions in the upward current region. By means of one-dimensional Vlasov simulations of expanding plasmas, for the first time we make here the connection between (i) the rarefaction shocks, (ii) the discontinuities in the potential distributions, and (iii) DLs. We show that when plasmas expand from opposite directions into a deep density cavity with a potential drop across it and when the plasma on the high-potential side contains two electron populations, the temporal evolution of the potential and the plasma. distribution generates evolving multiple double layers with an extended density cavity between them. One of the DLs is the rarefaction-shock (RFS) and it forms by the reflections of the cold electrons coming from the high-potential side; it supports a part of the potential drop approximately determined by the hot electron temperature.

Double Layers in Expanding Plasmas and Their Relevance to the Auroral Plasma Processes

When a dense plasma consisting of a cold and a sufficiently warm electron population expands, a rarefaction shock forms [Bezzerides et al., 1978]. In the expansion of the polar wind in the magnetosphere, it has been previously shown that when a sufficiently warm electron population also exists, in addition to the usual cold ionospheric one, a discontinuity forms in the electrostatic potential distribution along the magnetic field lines [Barakat and Schunk, 1984]. Despite the lack of spatial resolution and the assumption of quasi-neutrality in the polar wind models, such discontinuities have been called double layers (DLs). Recently similar discontinuities have been invoked to partly explain the auroral acceleration of electrons and ions in the upward current region [Ergun et al., 2000]. By means of one-dimensional Vlasov simulations of expanding plasmas, for the first time we make here the connection between (1) the rarefaction shocks, (2) the discontinuities in the potential distributions, and (3) DLs. We show that when plasmas expand from opposite directions into a deep density cavity with a potential drop across it and when the plasma on the high-potential side contains hot and cold electron populations, the temporal evolution of the potential and the plasma distribution generates evolving multiple double layers with an ,extended density cavity between them. One of the DLs is the rarefaction-shock (RFS) and it forms by the reflections of the cold electrons coming from the high-potential side; it supports a part of the potential drop approximately determined by the hot electron temperature. The other DLs evolve from charge separations arising either from reflection of ions coming from the low-potential side or stemming from plasma instabilities; they support the rest of the potential drop. The instabilities forming these additional double layers involve electron-ion (e-i) Buneman or ion-ion (i-i) two-stream interactions. The electron-electron two-stream interactions on the high-potential side of the RFS generate electron-acoustic waves, which evolve into electron phase-space holes. The ion population originating from the low-potential side and trapped by the RFS is energized by the e-i and i-i instabilities and it eventually precipitates into the high-potential plasma along with an electron beam. Applications of these findings to the auroral plasma physics are discussed.

Expanding the Operational Use of Total Lightning Ahead of GOES-R

NASA's Short‐term Prediction Research and Transition Center (SPoRT) has been transitioning real‐time total lightning observations from ground‐based lightning mapping arrays since 2003. This initial effort was with the local Weather Forecast Offices (WFO) that could use the North Alabama Lightning Mapping Array (NALMA). These early collaborations established a strong interest in the use of total lightning for WFO operations. In particular the focus started with warning decision support, but has since expanded to include impact‐based decision support and lightning safety. SPoRT has used its experience to establish connections with new lightning mapping arrays as they become available. The GOES‐R / JPSS Visiting Scientist Program has enabled SPoRT to conduct visits to new partners and expand the number of operational users with access to total lightning observations. In early 2014, SPoRT conducted the most recent visiting scientist trips to meet with forecast offices that will used the Colorado, Houston, and Langmuir Lab (New Mexico) lightning mapping arrays. In addition, SPoRT met with the corresponding Center Weather Service Units (CWSUs) to expand collaborations with the aviation community. These visits were an opportunity to learn about the forecast needs of each office visited as well as to provide on‐site training for the use of total lightning, setting the stage for a real‐time assessment during May‐July 2014. With five lightning mapping arrays covering multiple geographic locations, the 2014 assessment has demonstrated numerous uses of total lightning in varying situations. Several highlights include a much broader use of total lightning for impact‐based decision support ranging from airport weather warnings, supporting fire crews, and protecting large outdoor events. The inclusion of the CWSUs has broadened the operational scope of total lightning, demonstrating how these data can support air traffic management, particularly in the Terminal Radar Approach Control Facilities (TRACON) region around an airport. These collaborations continue to demonstrate, from the operational perspective, the utility of total lightning and the importance of continued training and preparation in advance of the Geostationary Lightning Mapper.

Dynamics modeling of molten salt reactor with reduced and expanded representations of delayed neutron precursors

Molten salt reactors (MSRs) present unique challenges in dynamic behavior due to the mobility of their fuel. In these reactors, delayed neutron precursors (DNPs) drift with the fuel circulation through the primary loop. As a result, a fraction of DNPs decays outside the core, effectively reducing the available delayed neutron population for reactivity control. Consequently, precise modeling of the distribution and behavior of DNPs is critical for accurate reactor dynamics simulations. In this study, the System Dynamics Analysis Tool (SDAT) was used to simulate a thermal-spectrum MSR under steady-state conditions and following transients. The effects of using reduced and expanded representations of DNPs with fewer or more groups than the conventional 6-group model were investigated. Their impact on the simulated distribution of precursors in the primary loop, reactivity loss value, and reactor response to transients was analyzed. Simulation results showed that reduced models lead to the loss of the actual DNPs distribution data, resulting in less accurate estimates of reactivity loss. Reactor power predictions using these reduced models showed significant deviations compared to those using the conventional 6-group model in transient simulations. Expanded models offered a more accurate representation of the distribution of DNPs and reactivity loss estimates. Reactor power predictions using expanded models showed minimal deviation from the conventional 6-group model during the simulated transients.

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Air Radiation in Superorbital Expanding Flow

To investigate air radiation in expanding flows and provide experimental data for validating associated computational models, experiments were conducted in the X2 expansion tunnel facility at the Centre for Hypersonics of the University of Queensland. A 54 turning angle wedge model was employed to generate steady expanding flows with in flow total enthalpies of 50.7, 63.4 and 75.4 MJkg. VUV spectra from 118 to 180 nm were acquired across the wedge at three equispaced distances away from the top of the model, as well as through its top surface. High speed filtered images were also obtained by coupling a Shimadzu 1 MHz high speed camera to a bandpass filter to obtain calibrated images of the 777 nm oxygen triplet. Both the across-wedge VUV spectra and filtered images of the 777 nm atomic oxygen were compared with NEQAIR simulations, which were performed using flow field data from two-dimensional CFD simulations with two-temperature 11-species air chemistry utilizing the in-house Navier-Stokes flow solver Eilmer3. Data extracted from consecutive frames of the filtered high speed images confirmed up to 8 s of available test time for the flow conditions tested. For the strongly radiating 149 and 174 nm atomic nitrogen lines, large disagreement between experimental data and NEQAIR predictions can be observed from the start of the expansion fan where the electron-ion recombination process commences. The spatial extent, or spans of the radiance profiles of the 149 and 174 nm N lines are significantly under predicted by NEQAIR, and are very close to those of N, N+ and electron number density profiles, which follow that of flow density. The electron-ion recombination process is proposed as the main reason for these discrepancies. The comparisons between NEQAIR simulations and filtered images of the 777 nm oxygen triplet show good agreement in the post-shock compression region and the start of the expansion fan for the 63.4 MJkg condition, but with up to a factor of three over prediction by NEQAIR further downstream, which is attributed to electron-impact excitation. Similar trends are found with the 75.4 MJkg condition, with reduced level of agreement in the compression region, which can be due to uncertainties in inflow condition.

Building an expanded bio-based economy through synthetic biology

The field of synthetic biology is essential to the continued development of a bio-based economy, creating mechanisms to supply carbon needed in the economy by both converting existing end-of-life wastes as well as by creating novel, purpose-grown and sustainable feedstocks. Here, we first discuss the near- and long-term resources available for use as feedstocks for bioconversion as well as the output molecules needed for building the foundation of an expanded bio-based economy. We then outline the organisms and phenotypic traits that are needed for the performance-advantaged chassis organisms of the future. Furthermore, we detail the advances, challenges, and opportunities in both microbial and plant synthetic biology relevant to expanding the bio-based economy. Finally, we explore technologies that have and will further enable advances in synthetic biology and the greater bio-based economy.

Expanding the interlayer spacing of MXene through nanoarchitecture design

MXenes, a diverse class of two-dimensional transition metal carbides and nitrides with distinct surface chem istries, offer remarkable electrochemical and physicochemical properties. Yet, their performance can be hindered by the intrinsic restacking of layers, which restricts surface activity. This review outlines recent advances in interlayer spacing modulation strategies designed to overcome this limitation. A wide range of guest spe cies–including mono- and polyatomic ions, small molecules, low-dimensional nanomaterials, and polymers–are discussed with respect to their intercalation mechanisms, structural effects, and capacity to introduce functional enhancements. These intercalating species interact with MXene via electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonding, redox reactions, or covalent linkages, resulting in stable, expanded nanoarchitectures. The influence of expanded spacing on capacitive behavior is briefly highlighted to illustrate its practical relevance. Although Ti 3 C 2 T x is currently the most extensively investigated MXene, applying these interlayer engineering strategies to other MXene compositions will be essential for accessing a wider range of properties and functionalities.

Expanding Configurational Complexity through Dipole Dilution in Pseudohalide Argyrodite Ion Conductors

The advantageous properties of (pseudo)halide argyrodite ion conductors of the formula Li 6 PS 5 X (X = Cl – , Br – , I – , CN – ) have motivated extensive studies of their structure-transport relationships, particularly as they pertain to the role of atomic site disorder. The argyrodite structure can accommodate additional configurational complexity to promote ion transport via extended three-anion site mixing and the potential for orientational disorder of molecular anions. In this work, we explore a ternary anion system including the cyanide anion, expanding site disorder and introducing dipolar orientations as an additional degree of freedom. We prepared the series Li 6 PS 5 (CN) 1–x Br x , in which the dipolar cyanide anions are systematically diluted with bromide. We find that anion disorder, as determined by synchrotron and neutron diffraction and quantified by configurational entropy (S config ), is correlated with lowered activation barriers and increased lithium ion conductivity. We propose that S config describes the electrostatic heterogeneity of the Li environments, flattening the energetic landscape for ion transport. While anion substitution strongly impacts the activation barrier for transport, the temperature-independent Arrhenius prefactor does not follow the same trend. Through heat-capacity measurements of attempt frequency and deconvolution of terms within the prefactor, we rationalize the apparent decoupling of activation energy and prefactor to strong cyanide-lithium interactions that increase the entropy of migration. Together, these results expand the structure–property relationships in the argyrodite family to encompass multiple facets of disorder and the subsequent impact on lithium ion transport.

Design, Manufacturing, and Installation of DIII-D Lower Hybrid Current Drive Outer Wall Waveguides and Expandable Vacuum Interface

High field side lower hybrid current drive (HFS LHCD) is promising method for efficient, off axis current drive. To operate this system, development of an expandable combination radio frequency (RF) and vacuum interface was necessary to allow the long (~2 m) waveguides to thermally expand with respect to the DIII-D 0 degree R-1 port extension without damage to the waveguide or excessive force on the vacuum seals which was previously observed when baking the waveguides during operations that were installed in 2024. Design of a custom bellows assembly with RF feedthrough that allows >20mm of waveguide thermal expansion is presented. Fabrication of this bellows assembly required simultaneously vacuum brazing multiple 304 stainless steel flanges to an oxygen free high conductivity copper waveguide section which required significant manufacturing development.

Directed evolution expands CRISPR–Cas12a genome-editing capacity

CRISPR-Cas12a enzymes are versatile RNA-guided genome-editing tools with applications encompassing viral diagnosis, agriculture, and human therapeutics. However, their dependence on a 5'-TTTV-3' protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) next to DNA target sequences restricts Cas12a's gene targeting capability to only ∼1% of a typical genome. To mitigate this constraint, we used a bacterial-based directed evolution assay combined with rational engineering to identify variants of Lachnospiraceae bacterium Cas12a with expanded PAM recognition. The resulting Cas12a variants use a range of noncanonical PAMs while retaining recognition of the canonical 5'-TTTV-3' PAM. In particular, biochemical and cell-based assays show that the variant Flex-Cas12a utilizes 5'-NYHV-3' PAMs that expand DNA recognition sites to ∼25% of the human genome. With enhanced targeting versatility, Flex-Cas12a unlocks access to previously inaccessible genomic loci, providing new opportunities for both therapeutic and agricultural genome engineering.

Expanding the genetic toolkit: adenine and cytosine base editors for gene disruption in Aspergillus niger

Despite revolutionizing fungal genetic engineering, conventional CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockouts rely on DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), which can cause unwanted insertions and deletions, chromosomal abnormalities, and cytotoxicity. Base editors such as adenine base editors (ABEs), which convert A‧T to G‧C, and cytosine base editors (CBEs), which convert C‧G to T‧A, offer a safer alternative by enabling predictable, target-specific single-nucleotide changes without introducing DSBs. To overcome the limitations of traditional genome editing in filamentous fungi, we developed efficient base-editing systems in Aspergillus niger . For the first time, we constructed an ABE in A. niger , achieving up to 80% editing efficiency and inducing predictable A-to-G mutations at the intended intron sites, disrupting gene function through mRNA mis-splicing. We also developed a highly efficient CBE system, capable of introducing premature stop codons with 50–100% efficiency. To broaden the editing scope, we implemented a Cas9-NG variant recognizing a relaxed PAM sequence requiring only a single guanine (G), enabling editing at start codons and splice sites. Leveraging this expanded scope, we established gene disruption approaches by targeting start codons via ABE-mediated A-to-G conversions (ATG-to-GTG and ATG-to-ACG) and CBE-mediated C-to-T conversion (ATG-to-ATA). Additionally, our base-editing systems enable multiplex gRNA delivery and marker-free editing of multiple genes. Collectively, the scope-expanding strategies increase the number of genes targetable for disruption by base-editing in A. niger by 26.3% and enable near-complete coverage of 96% of the coding genes. Overall, this work demonstrates the potential of ABE and CBE systems as versatile, efficient, and safer alternatives to DSBs-based gene disruption in filamentous fungi.

Testing of High S Matrix Glasses to Expand DFHLW Glass Compositional Ranges (Rev.1)

Gaps in glass composition-property data for direct-feed high-level waste (DFHLW) have recently been identified. One such gap is the region of high sulfur solubility since previous, pretreated, high-level wastes contained very little sulfur. Filling this data gap will significantly broaden the range of process flowsheet options including minimal washing and will allow for optimized waste loading in DFHLW glasses. This report summarizes the data collected during the characterization of the DFHLW High S Glass Matrix (HS24). A glass matrix of 50 glass compositions was developed to evenly cover the DFHLW composition region for high sulfur glass. Matrix glasses were designed to expand the composition region outside the current component concentration and property limits so as to reduce uncertainties at the limits. The 50 matrix glasses were fabricated and tested for properties important to the success of DFHLW vitrification including: compositions, canister centerline cooling (CCC) crystallinity and isothermal crystallinity, density, viscosity, electrical conductivity (EC), product consistency test (PCT) response, toxicity, and sulfate solubility. Melter materials corrosion testing is reported elsewhere. These glasses were intentionally designed to have high SO 3 solubilities (0.7 to 2.2 SO 3 wt%) in compositional regions that had not been previously explored. Forty-eight glasses showed the measured SO 3 content retained >80% of the target SO 3 and the densities of all the glasses ranged from 2.49 g·cm -3 to 2.74 g·cm -3 . While the model predicted nepheline formation in 5 glasses, one of the tested 50 CCC glasses formed nepheline, and 35 glasses formed Cr-containing phases such as spinels and eskolaite. Only five glasses were amorphous after CCC treatment where 44 glasses with detectable crystals contained =10 wt% crystals and only one glass had > 10 wt% crystals. None of the glasses exceeded the allowable T 2% for spinel crystal formation at 950 ºC (i.e., no glasses had >2 wt% spinel at 950 ºC) during isothermal crystal fraction tests where 10 glasses showed no crystalline phases at or below 950 ºC. All the glasses (except one which failed being slightly lower than the target) satisfied the SO 3 constraint while 98 glasses did not meet the viscosity constraints and 4 failed the EC constraints. Six quenched (Q) and six CCC glasses failed the Defense Waste Processing Facility (DWPF) Environmental Assessment (EA) glass PCT threshold and 3 Q and 4 CCC failed the PCT design constraint. One glass exceeded the WTP delisting limits for Cr via EPA Method 1311 (i.e., Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure, TCLP). It should be emphasized that some of these glasses were specifically designed to approach or even exceed certain property constraints, as filling data gaps in these regions will provide the greatest benefit for future model development by improving accuracy and reducing uncertainties. These insights will ultimately support the development of more robust glass formulation strategies, enabling higher waste loading, reducing operational risks, and expanding the processing envelope.

Expandable Log Analyzing Framework

Prior to my internship, I was informed that a previous intern had built a tool to analyse MongoDB logs and look for invalid access attempts, which served as a great reference point for my project. I was initially tasked with expanding on her prototype and filling in the gaps such as integrating it with the main monitoring tool the lab uses. Eventually, the scope grew, expanding to support other databases and a growing collection of tools. I organized the framework around an observer pattern, meaning one point in the program sending updates to the rest of the framework. Every time a log was read and parsed, it was sent to be processed by the tools, using the type of event as a means to determine which tools should get a chance to act on the log. This decouples the tools from the log reader, making future updates and additions much easier. The framework processes MongoDB logs at ~135,000 entries per second and PostgreSQL logs at ~170,500 entries per second, accurately detecting anomalies such as slow queries and connections from unknown addresses. This framework serves to fill gaps in database monitoring tools currently implemented at the lab, such as tracking failed authentication for PostgreSQL and MongoDB which had very minimal or none before this framework. National labs such as Fermilab hold sensitive data and valuable computing resources, making them attractive targets. Monitoring intrusion attempts on databases is made much easier by this comprehensive monitoring suite.
