ESCARGOT: Mapping Vertical Phase Spiral Characteristics Throughout the Real and Simulated Milky Way

Abstract The recent discovery of a spiral pattern in the vertical kinematic structure in the solar neighborhood provides a prime opportunity to study nonequilibrium dynamics in the Milky Way from local stellar kinematics. Furthermore, results from simulations indicate that even in a limited volume, differences in stellar orbital histories allow us to trace variations in the initial perturbation across large regions of the disk. We present ESCARGOT , a novel algorithm for studying these variations in both simulated and observed data sets. ESCARGOT automatically extracts key quantities from the structure of a given phase spiral, including the time since perturbation and the perturbation mode. We test ESCARGOT on simulated data and show that it is capable of accurately recovering information about the time since the perturbation occurred as well as subtle differences in phase spiral morphology due to stellar locations in the disk at the time of perturbation. We apply ESCARGOT to kinematic data from data release 3 of the Gaia mission in bins of guiding radius. We show that similar structural differences in morphology occur in the Gaia phase spirals as a function of stellar orbital history. These results indicate that the phase spirals are the product of a complex dynamical response in the disk with large-scale coupling between different regions of phase space.

D-Band EPR and ENDOR Spectroscopy of 15 N-Labeled Photosystem I

For billions of years, nature has optimized the photosynthetic machinery that converts light energy into chemical energy. Key primary reactions of photosynthesis occur in large membrane protein-cofactor complexes. The light-induced sequential electron transfer reactions occur through a chain of donor/acceptor cofactors embedded in the protein matrix resulting in a long-lived transmembrane charge-separated state. EPR is the method of choice to study electron transfer and the interaction of protein environment with redox-active cofactors. However, the spectra of organic cofactor radicals typically are not fully resolved and severely overlap at conventional X-band EPR. Even at Q-band EPR, this overlap is present and often a serious problem. As a result, there is a large variation of the reported EPR data and limited understanding of electronic structures of several redox-active cofactors. These serious problems can often be overcome by the excellent spectral resolution provided by high-frequency EPR (HF EPR). In this work, we study the electronic structure of the primary electron donor P 700 and the secondary electron acceptor A 1 of Photosystem I (PSI) using 130 GHz (D-band) EPR and Electron-Nuclear-Double-Resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy. PSI was isotopically labeled with 15 N (I = $\frac{1/2}$) to avoid quadrupolar interactions in the most abundant nitrogen isotope 14 N (I = 1) and simplify the ENDOR spectra. ENDOR spectroscopy is central for determining the hyperfine coupling of nitrogen atoms of the two chlorophyll molecules comprising oxidized P 700 and the involvement of protein nitrogen atoms with reduced A 1 . While HF ENDOR of A 1 - allows identification of two nitrogen atoms, HF ENDOR of P 700 + still does not permit unique assignment of the recorded hyperfine couplings.

A fast multi-fidelity method with uncertainty quantification for complex data correlations: Application to vortex-induced vibrations of marine risers

Here we develop a fast multi-fidelity modeling method for very complex correlations between high- and low-fidelity data by working in modal space to extract the proper correlation function. We apply this method to infer the amplitude of motion of a flexible marine riser in cross-flow, subject to vortex-induced vibrations (VIV). VIV are driven by an absolute instability in the flow, which imposes a frequency (Strouhal) law that requires a matching with the impedance of the structure; this matching is easily achieved because of the rapid parametric variation of the added mass force. As a result, the wavenumber of the riser spatial response is within narrow bands of uncertainty. Hence, an error in wavenumber prediction can cause significant phase-related errors in the shape of the amplitude of response along the riser, rendering correlation between low- and high-fidelity data very complex. Working in modal space as outlined herein, dense data from low-fidelity data, provided by the semi-empirical computer code VIVA, can correlate in modal space with few high-fidelity data, obtained from experiments or fully-resolved CFD simulations, to correct both phase and amplitude and provide predictions that agree very well overall with the correct shape of the amplitude response. We also quantify the uncertainty in the prediction using Bayesian modeling and exploit this uncertainty to formulate an active learning strategy for the best possible location of the sensors providing the high fidelity measurements.

Atomic cooperation in enhancing magnetism: (Fe, Cu)-doped CeCo 5

Developing permanent magnet alloys with decreased critical elements (e.g., Nd, Dy, and Co) requires identifying compositions and structures with uniaxial magneto-crystalline anisotropy energy (MAE), large magnetization, and a high ferromagnetic transition temperature (Curie temperature - T C ). One approach to minimizing the critical elements in potential permanent magnet alloys is to use overly produced Ce, which is less critical. Furthermore, reducing Co content in RCo 5 (R = Rare Earth) alloys is necessary since Co is also a critical element. An obvious choice for decreasing Co content is a substitution with non-critical Fe. However, the Fe is not stable in the lattice due to the reduced number of d -electrons. Concomitant substitution of Cu stabilizes Fe substitution. Employing first-principles electronic structure theory, we identify the weakly localized nature of cobalt in CeCo 5 , which causes high uniaxial magnetic anisotropy of ~10 MJ/m 3 . In contrast, substituted Cu delocalizes the Co’s 3 d -states, resulting in lower anisotropy. Calculations show that 10% Cu can stabilize 20% Fe subsituted for Co, which significantly enhances magnetic moment in the Ce (Co, Fe, Cu) 5 . We report this prediction is in good agreement with a single-crystal experiment in which the optimal composition was identified to be 15% of Fe and 12% Cu. The competitive non-equivalent Co sites preferred by Cu and Fe, a unique electronic structure including exchange and crystal field splitting, and rigid band shift variation are borne by 3 d states of Co, Fe, and Cu around the Fermi level, all play an essential role in tuning the magnetic properties.

Implication of rare genetic variants of NODAL and ACVR1B in congenital heart disease patients from Indian population

Highlights: • Screening of 300 CHD patients revealed two rare missense variants (p.P51L & p.D327E) in NODAL. • A novel missense variation p.M345I was identified in ACVR1B. • Bioinformatic analyses suggested that these variants could have deleterious role. • Three-dimensional modelling suggested conformation changes in the mutated proteins compared to wild-type. • In vitro studies demonstrated that missense variants affect the function of NODAL and ACVR1B. NODAL signaling plays an essential role in vertebrate embryonic patterning and heart development. Accumulating evidences suggest that genetic mutations in TGF-β/NODAL signaling pathway can cause congenital heart disease in humans. To investigate the implication of NODAL signaling in isolated cardiovascular malformation, we have screened 300 non-syndromic CHD cases and 200 controls for NODAL and ACVR1B by Sanger sequencing and identified two rare missense (c.152C > T; p.P51L and c.981 T > A; p.D327E) variants in NODAL and a novel missense variant c.1035G > A; p.M345I in ACVR1B. All these variants are absent in 200 controls. Three-dimensional protein-modelling demonstrates that both p.P51L and p.D327E variations of NODAL and p.M345I mutation of ACVR1B, affect the tertiary structure of respective proteins. Variants of NODAL (p.P51L and p.D327E) and ACVR1B (p.M345I), significantly reduce the transactivation of AR3-Luc, (CAGA){sub 12}-Luc and (SBE){sub 4}-Luc promoters. Moreover, qRT-PCR results have also deciphered a reduction in the expression of cardiac-enriched transcription factors namely Gata4, Nkx2-5, and Tbx5 in both the mutants of NODAL. Decreased expression of, Gata4, Nkx2-5, Tbx5, and lefty is observed in p.M345I mutant of ACVR1B as well. Additionally, reduced phosphorylation of SMAD2/3 in response to these variants, suggests impaired NODAL signaling and possibly responsible for defective cell fate decision and differentiation of cardiomyocytes leading to CHD phenotype.

Smooth Modified Surfaces of Silicon for the Study of Ionic Liquid Interfaces by Neutron Reflectometry

Silicon surfaces with termination of hydrogen (H–Si), quartz, native silicon (native-Si), and chemically deposited (Au–Si) cd and sputtered gold (Au–Si) s were fabricated with roughness less than 6 Å to study the solid–liquid interface of the ionic liquid (IL) methyltrioctylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [N 1888 ][TFSI], by neutron reflectometry (NR). The modifications made to the silicon surface were to obtain a native positive or negative charge similar to a charged surface in electrochemical systems. The differences in scattering length density (SLD) based on mass density and composition of IL were examined. Perpendicular to the substrate surface, a distinct transition between the first ion layer and the bulk liquid is resolved out of the reflectivity data for the gold surfaces and in particular the chemically deposited Au–Si. Other interfaces are best described by a diffuse transition between regions of different SLDs. The diffuse transitions between SLDs observed here suggest that the interfacial structure of IL, while ordered, is best described by a continuous variation in composition as opposed to distinct layers of ions.

Au and Pt Remain Unoxidized on a CeO 2 -Based Catalyst during the Water–Gas Shift Reaction

The active form of Au and Pt in CeO 2 based catalysts for the WGS reaction is an issue that although it has been widely studied remains unclear. On one hand, ionic species might be responsible of weakening the Ce-O bonds increasing the oxygen mobility and WGS activity. On the other hand, the close contact of Au or Pt atoms with CeO 2 oxygen vacancies at the metal/CeO 2 interface might provide the active sites for an efficient reaction. In this work, by using in-situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy, we demonstrate that both Au and Pt remain unoxidized during the reaction. Here, remarkable differences involving the dynamics established by both species under WGS atmospheres were recognized. For the pre-reduced Pt catalyst, an increase of the conversion coincided with a re-structuration of the Pt atoms into cuboctahedrical metallic particles without significant variations on the overall particle size. Contrary to the relatively static behavior of Pt 0 , Au 0 nanoparticles exhibited a sequence of particle splitting and agglomeration whilst maintaining a zero oxidation state, even though not being located in a metallic environment during the process. High WGS activity was obtained when Au atoms were surrounded by oxygen. The fact that Au preserves its unoxidized state indicates that the chemical interaction between Au and oxygen must be necessarily electrostatic being such electrostatic interaction fundamental for a top performance in the WGS process.

Peak Ground Velocity Spatial Variability Revealed by Dense Seismic Array in Southern California

There are an infinite number of locations where seismic waves interact with Earth's surface, yet seismologists can only record a finite set of ground motions. This requires assumptions about how known measurements or predictions can be extrapolated to nearby locations. We test to what extent extrapolation is viable using an array of 1,108 geophones installed 10–20 m apart within a 0.36 km 2 study area for 1 month atop the San Jacinto Fault in Southern California. Measuring ground motions from 38 small local earthquakes, we observe peak ground velocity (PGV) variations up to 22% across the array. We find the basin structure consistently traps energy, amplifying the seismic velocities, and that the damaged region within the fault reduces the PGVs. Comparing surface and borehole measurements (148 m deep), we find PGVs recorded at the surface are 3–10 times greater than the measurements at depth. We attribute these differences to amplification from soft sediments within the basin. We show that by leveraging information from >1,000 measurements per earthquake the ground motion velocities can be tightly constrained. These results suggest the spatial extrapolation of PGVs in regions of known faults and basins, even across a small area, should be done with caution.

Atomic-scale 3D imaging of individual dopant atoms in an oxide semiconductor

The physical properties of semiconductors are controlled by chemical doping. In oxide semiconductors, small variations in the density of dopant atoms can completely change the local electric and magnetic responses caused by their strongly correlated electrons. In lightly doped systems, however, such variations are difficult to determine as quantitative 3D imaging of individual dopant atoms is a major challenge. We apply atom probe tomography to resolve the atomic sites that donors occupy in the small band gap semiconductor Er(Mn,Ti)O 3 with a nominal Ti concentration of 0.04 at. %, map their 3D lattice positions, and quantify spatial variations. Our work enables atomic-level 3D studies of structure-property relations in lightly doped complex oxides, which is crucial to understand and control emergent dopant-driven quantum phenomena.

Global centroid moment tensor solutions in a heterogeneous earth: the CMT3D catalogue

SUMMARY For over 40 yr, the global centroid-moment tensor (GCMT) project has determined location and source parameters for globally recorded earthquakes larger than magnitude 5.0. The GCMT database remains a trusted staple for the geophysical community. Its point-source moment-tensor solutions are the result of inversions that model long-period observed seismic waveforms via normal-mode summation for a 1-D reference earth model, augmented by path corrections to capture 3-D variations in surface wave phase speeds, and to account for crustal structure. While this methodology remains essentially unchanged for the ongoing GCMT catalogue, source inversions based on waveform modelling in low-resolution 3-D earth models have revealed small but persistent biases in the standard modelling approach. Keeping pace with the increased capacity and demands of global tomography requires a revised catalogue of centroid-moment tensors (CMT), automatically and reproducibly computed using Green's functions from a state-of-the-art 3-D earth model. In this paper, we modify the current procedure for the full-waveform inversion of seismic traces for the six moment-tensor parameters, centroid latitude, longitude, depth and centroid time of global earthquakes. We take the GCMT solutions as a point of departure but update them to account for the effects of a heterogeneous earth, using the global 3-D wave speed model GLAD-M25. We generate synthetic seismograms from Green's functions computed by the spectral-element method in the 3-D model, select observed seismic data and remove their instrument response, process synthetic and observed data, select segments of observed and synthetic data based on similarity, and invert for new model parameters of the earthquake’s centroid location, time and moment tensor. The events in our new, preliminary database containing 9382 global event solutions, called CMT3D for ‘3-D centroid-moment tensors’, are on average 4 km shallower, about 1 s earlier, about 5 per cent larger in scalar moment, and more double-couple in nature than in the GCMT catalogue. We discuss in detail the geographical and statistical distributions of the updated solutions, and place them in the context of earlier work. We plan to disseminate our CMT3D solutions via the online ShakeMovie platform.

Local Ferromagnetic Resonance Measurements of Mesoscopically Patterned Ferromagnets Using Deterministically Placed Nanodiamonds

Nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond have recently been established as effective sensors of the magnetization dynamics in vicinal ferromagnetic materials. Here, we demonstrate sub-100-nm placement accuracy of nitrogen-vacancy-containing nanodiamonds and use these as local sensors that probe optically detected ferromagnetic resonance in mesoscopically patterned Permalloy islands. These measurements reveal variations in the ferromagnetic resonance signal at different sites on these structures with distinct behavior in the edge and the bulk of patterned features. These test measurements establish an easily implemented approach for spatially targeted measurements of spin dynamics in mesoscale ferromagnets. In principle, the methodology can also be extended to local studies of nanoscale ferromagnets, such as single magnetic nanowires and nanoparticles.

Vibrational properties and thermal transport in quaternary chalcogenides: The case of Te-based compositions

Vibrational thermal properties of CuZn 2 InTe 4 , AgZn 2 InTe 4 , and Cu 2 CdSnTe 4 , derived from binary II-VI zinc-blendes, are reported based on first-principles calculations. While the chalcogenide atoms in these materials have the same lattice positions, the cation atom arrangements vary, resulting in different crystal symmetries and subsequent properties. The compositional differences have important effects on the vibrational thermal characteristics of the studied materials, which demonstrate that low-frequency optical phonons hybridize with acoustic phonons and lead to enhanced phonon-phonon scattering and low lattice thermal conductivities. The phonon density of states, mode Grüneisen parameters, and phonon scattering rates are also calculated, enabling deeper insight into the microscopic thermal conduction processes in these materials. Compositional variations drive differences among the three materials considered here; nonetheless, their structural similarities and generally low thermal conductivities (0.5–4 W/m K at room temperature) suggest that other similar II-VI zinc-blende derived materials will also exhibit similarly low values, as also corroborated by experimental data. Finally, this, combined with the versatility in designing a variety of motifs on the overall structure, makes quaternary chalcogenides interesting for thermal management and energy conversion applications that require low thermal conductivity.

Low-Memory, Discrete Ordinates, Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Radiative Transport

The discrete ordinates discontinuous Galerkin (SN-DG) method is a well-established and practical approach for solving the radiative transport equation. In this paper, we study a low-memory variation of the upwind SN-DG method. The proposed method uses a smaller finite element space that is constructed by coupling spatial unknowns across collocation angles, thereby yielding an approximation with fewer degrees of freedom than the standard method. Like the original SN-DG method, the low-memory variation still preserves the asymptotic diffusion limit and maintains the characteristic structure needed for mesh sweeping algorithms. While we observe second-order convergence in the scattering dominated, diffusive regime, the low-memory method is in general only first-order accurate. To address this issue, we use upwind reconstruction to recover second-order accuracy. Finally, for both methods, numerical procedures based on upwind sweeps are proposed to reduce the system dimension in the underlying Krylov solver strategy.

Geophysical and Environmental Monitoring Data, and Subsurface Flow Modelling Results for Chicken Bone Meadow, Mt. Snodgrass, Crested Butte, CO

This dataset includes geoelectrical monitoring data acquired between October 2021 and November 2022, soil moisture and temperature data, groundwater data obtained from borehole SNIB covering the period from June 2021 to September 2022, and hydrological modelling results. The data were acquired to investigate how variations in bedrock type and topography, and vegetation cover control subsurface flow dynamics. To provide insights into the subsurface flow dynamics and their controls, a monitoring transect was installed at the Chicken Bone Meadow, Mt. Snodgrass, Crested Butte, CO, measuring the spatio-temporal variations of soil moisture, soil and snow temperature, subsurface electrical resistivity variations, and groundwater dynamics. Field data are organized in a folder structure, with Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) data being provided as one file per measurement, and data of the soil moisture and temperature sensors being provided as text files covering the entire monitoring period. The ‘Locations.csv’ file contains the location of all sensors, given in NAD83 – UTM Zone 13N. ERT monitoring data has been processed to filter data based on reciprocal errors (data with errors > 30% were removed), a linear error model was fitted to each survey, and to ensure a constant set of measurements for time-lapse inversion, filtered data were interpolated and assigned a 100% measurement error. Soil moisture and temperature data were acquired at 15 min intervals, and averaged to provide 1h data. Weather data and borehole data (groundwater depth, conductivity and temperature) were acquired at 30 min intervals, and are provided as daily measurements; all measurements are averaged, except of precipitation values, which are given as daily accumulation. The hydrological model was set up along the ERT monitoring transect, and net infiltration was used as surface boundary condition and derived from the weather data. Four different results are provided, (1) results for a parameterization using hydraulic permeability and porosity as derived from the ERT data through petrophysical relationships, and (2) three simplified model results, using 1 to 3 geological layers above the bedrock. Modelling was performed using PFLOTRAN, and for each model the PFLOTRAN input files are provided. The result files include weekly hydrological modelling results (e.g., saturation, velocities, pressures), as well as the model parameterization. The dataset additionally includes a file-level metadata (flmd.csv) file that lists each file contained in the dataset with associated metadata; and a data dictionary (dd.csv) file that contains column/row headers used throughout the files along with a definition, units, and data type.

Generalizing synthetic data-trained acoustic predictive models to real-world measurements

Acoustic Resonance Spectroscopy (ARS) is highly sensitive to structural properties such as material, geometry, and environmental conditions; as a consequence, it can noninvasively measure internal properties that are unobservable by most other methods. Because of its sensing capabilities and low implementation cost and complexity, ARS has potential as a paradigm shift in noninvasive sensing, characterization, and monitoring applications. However, extracting specific properties from ARS measurements, comprising the vibration spectrum of a test object, is challenging due to the sensitivity of the spectra to other structural changes not being measured, e.g. manufacturing tolerances, component coupling, environmental variation, etc. Neural Networks are promising tools for identifying trends in ARS measurements, but their training typically requires large datasets, which are often impractical to obtain for real-world systems. Synthetic data can be simulated efficiently, but discrepancies between synthetic and real-world data frequently lead to poor generalization when testing on the real-world data. We propose a novel ARS model training framework that enables networks trained exclusively on synthetic ARS data to generalize effectively to real-world measurements. Our approach leverages the Correlation Alignment (CORAL) technique to enforce the extraction of features common to both synthetic and real-world domains. As a case study, we demonstrate noninvasive ARS-based pressure measurements in sealed systems. Finite element method (FEM) simulations were used to generate synthetic training data across diverse vessel configurations and pressure conditions, and model performance was then tested on real-world measurements. We demonstrate that robust machine learning models for ARS can be developed without large real-world datasets, significantly broadening the applicability of ARS for noninvasive sensing. Moreover, the approach is extensible to other sensing modalities where synthetic data are abundant but real-world data are limited.

Single-Step Fabrication of Au-Fe-BaTiO3 Nanocomposite Thin Films Embedded with Non-Equilibrium Au-Fe Alloyed Nanostructures

Nanocomposite thin film materials present great opportunities in coupling materials and functionalities in unique nanostructures including nanoparticles-in-matrix, vertically aligned nanocomposites (VANs), and nanolayers. Interestingly the nanocomposites processed through a non-equilibrium processing method, e.g., pulsed laser deposition (PLD), often possess unique metastable phases and microstructures that could not achieve using equilibrium techniques, and thus lead to novel physical properties. In this work, a unique three-phase system composed of BaTiO3 (BTO), with two immiscible metals, Au and Fe, is demonstrated. By adjusting the deposition laser frequency from 2 Hz to 10 Hz, the phase and morphology of Au and Fe nanoparticles in BTO matrix vary from separated Au and Fe nanoparticles to well-mixed Au-Fe alloy pillars. This is attributed to the non-equilibrium process of PLD and the limited diffusion under high laser frequency (e.g., 10 Hz). The magnetic and optical properties are effectively tuned based on the morphology variation. This work demonstrates the stabilization of non-equilibrium alloy structures in the VAN form and allows for the exploration of new non-equilibrium materials systems and their properties that could not be easily achieved through traditional equilibrium methods.

Noether currents for Eulerian variational principles in non-barotropic magnetohydrodynamics and topological conservations laws

We derive a Noether current for the Eulerian variational principle of ideal non-barotropic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). It was shown previously that ideal non-barotropic MHD is mathematically equivalent to a five function field theory with an induced geometrical structure in the case that field lines cover surfaces and this theory can be described using a variational principle. Here we use various symmetries of the flow to derive topological constants of motion through the derived Noether current and discuss their implication for non-barotropic MHD.

High-precision Galaxy Clustering Predictions from Small-volume Hydrodynamical Simulations via Control Variates

Abstract Cosmological simulations of galaxy formation are an invaluable tool for understanding galaxy formation and its impact on cosmological parameter inference from large-scale structures. However, their high computational cost is a significant obstacle for running simulations that probe cosmological volumes comparable to those analyzed by contemporary large-scale structure experiments. In this work, we explore the possibility of obtaining high-precision galaxy clustering predictions from small-volume hydrodynamical simulations such as MillenniumTNG and FLAMINGO via control variates. In this approach, the hydrodynamical full-physics simulation is paired with a matched low-resolution gravity-only simulation. By learning the galaxy–halo connection from the hydrodynamical simulation and applying it to the gravity-only counterpart, one obtains a galaxy population that closely mimics the one in the more expensive simulation. One can then construct an estimator of galaxy clustering that combines the clustering amplitudes in the small-volume hydrodynamical and gravity-only simulations with clustering amplitudes in a large-volume gravity-only simulation. Depending on the galaxy sample, clustering statistic, and scale, this galaxy clustering estimator can have an effective volume of up to around 100 times the volume of the original hydrodynamical simulation in the nonlinear regime. With this approach, we can construct galaxy clustering predictions from existing simulations that are precise enough for mock analyses of next-generation large-scale structure surveys such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument and the Legacy Survey of Space and Time.
