Development of a Space-Flight ADR Providing Continuous Cooling at 50 mK with Heat Rejection at 10 K

Future astronomical instruments will require sub-Kelvin detector temperatures to obtain high sensitivity. In many cases large arrays of detectors will be used, and the associated cooling systems will need performance surpassing the limits of present technologies. NASA is developing a compact cooling system that will lift heat continuously at temperatures below 50 mK and reject it at over 10 K. Based on Adiabatic Demagnetization Refrigerators (ADRs), it will have high thermodynamic efficiency and vibration-free operation with no moving parts. It will provide more than 10 times the current flight ADR cooling power at 50 mK and will also continuously cool a 4 K stage for instruments and optics. In addition, it will include an advanced magnetic shield resulting in external field variations below 5 T. We describe the cooling system here and report on the progress in its development.

Characterization of 10-ft. Diameter Aluminum Alloy 2219 Integrally Stiffened Cylinders

The integrally stiffened cylinder (ISC) process, pioneered by NASA Langley Research Center, offers significant savings for launch vehicle structures. The ISC process is a near net shape, advanced manufacturing method for fabrication of single-piece, thin-walled barrels with internal longitudinal stiffeners, eliminating the need for longitudinal welding and machining. A cost-benefit analysis of the ISC process estimated a 50 % reduction in manufacturing costs and a 10% weight savings over the current multi-piece, machined and welded construction approach for stiffened barrels. In 2017, commercial-scale manufacturing trials were pursued, leading to a successful manufacturing demonstration of 10-ft. diameter ISC barrels fabricated from Al alloy 2219. Some cracking was observed in the stiffeners during fabrication. Optical metallography was performed to evaluate the as-formed microstructures to identify potential causes of cracking, along with mechanical testing to evaluate formability. Results revealed that cracking in the stiffeners was attributed to three likely causes: 1) large Al-Cu stringer particles, 2) stick-slip friction between the mandrel and ISC due to non-optimized lubrication, and 3) differences in material flow rate between the wall and stiffener locations. Testing to gauge formability revealed a significant decrease in ductility in the longitudinal directional for the as-formed condition, attributed to reduced ductility due to the large Al-Cu stringer particles. These results provide guidance toward materials and processing modifications for future ISC forming trials.

Upping the Ante: The TESS Mission Shortens Full Frame Images to 10 Minutes and Introduces a Twenty-Second Data Collection Mode

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) recently completed its initial two-year, near all-sky survey, identifying over 79 exoplanets and over 2000 exoplanet candidates. The mission is well on its way to find at least 50 small, nearby exoplanets for which masses can be ascertained and whose atmospheres can be characterized by ground- and space-based follow-on observations. TESS has unveiled a plethora of exciting non-exoplanet astrophysics results, such as asteroseismology, asteroids, and supernova. In the extended mission, TESS is collecting full frame images (FFIs) at 10-minute intervals rather than at 30-minute intervals, as was the case for the two-year primary mission. TESS is also collecting and providing photometry for up to 1000 20-sec targets in addition to the 20,000 target star postage stamps collected at 2-min intervals. The extended mission will also feature a five-month interval in which the 24°x96° field of view (FOV) will be rotated by 90°from its normal North-South orientation to observe a swath of the ecliptic plane. The FOVs for the remainder of the extended mission will be offset in latitude from those of the prime mission to help fill in the gaps in the full sky coverage. We discuss the performance and behavior of the data products generated by the TESS Science Processing Operations Center (SPOC) at NASA Ames Research Center and highlight the new 20-sec data mode and the 10-min FFIs. The TESS Mission is funded by NASA's Science Mission Directorate as an Astrophysics Explorer Mission.

Toward 10-Milliarcsecond Infrared Astrometry

Infrared astometry at the 10-milliarcsecond (mas) level is applicable to experiments in stellar evolution astronomy, solar system dynamics, relativistic gravitation, and deep space laser tracking. We are pursuing astrometry with the U.C. Berkeley Infrared Spatial Interferometer (ISI) on Mt. Wilson to demonstrate a 10-mas capability for tracking stellar and solar system objects. Astrometric data from the ISI, taken and analyzed over the last 5 years, have shown that instrumental and atmospheric effects limit current demonstrations.

FLEET and PLIF Velocimetry Within A Mach 10 Hypersonic Air Flow

Femtosecond laser electronic excitation tagging (FLEET) and planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) velocity measurements utilizing molecular tagging velocity (MTV) methods from three recent test campaigns conducted at the 31-in Mach 10 Air Tunnel at the NASA Langley Research Center are highlighted within. The FLEET measurements reported here include the first direct measurement of freestream velocity at this hypersonic wind tunnel facility. Measurement challenges were exasperated by the low gas density of the Mach 10 air freestream (~0.4% of standard temperature and pressure conditions) and even lower gas densities within the hypersonic wake of a 70-degree sphere-cone model. In addition, the hypersonic freestream and very low speed velocities in the wake also tested the measurement dynamic range. To complement the FLEET measurements in the wake of the sphere-cone model, PLIF velocimetry using seeded nitric oxide was also performed. While NO-PLIF velocimetry has been performed at this facility several times by previous researchers, the use of a 1D diffractive optical element for NO-PLIF velocimetry is reported here for the first time. The 1D DOE enabled the generation of up to 75 laser lines simultaneously and improved the spatial extent of the measurement three times compared to previous work. This enabled a wide velocity measurement plane of approximately 130 mm x 130 mm. The velocimetry methods demonstrated here are expected to improve wind tunnel characterization, provide critical data to validate CFD codes, and improve the design of flight vehicles for planetary entry.

Evaluation of 10‐m Wind Speed From ISD Meteorological Stations and the MERRA‐2 Reanalysis: Impacts on Dust Emission in the Arabian Peninsula

Mineral dust is one of the most important aerosols when studying the radiative balance and climate of the planet. There are different dust emission schemes utilized by the atmospheric modeling communities, many of which disagree on basic output quantities such as mass of dust emitted and distribution of mass among size bins. In this work, we examined mineral dust emission from a leading model scheme, the Goddard Chemistry Aerosol Radiation and Transport (GOCART), as utilized in the Modern-Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications, Version 2 (MERRA-2) Reanalysis and compared it to dust emissions calculated using wind measurements from ground based weather stations located in the Arabian Peninsula that are included in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) integrated surface database (ISD). An intercomparison of 10-m wind speed is shown for the Arabian Peninsula region, differences of the observed and modeled wind field are quantified, and impacts of differences on dust emissions are calculated. This analysis shows 10-m winds in the ISD were generally lower than MERRA-2 winds, which propagated to dust emissions errors. Our estimate of one of the most significant mass impacts in dust emission is 0.178 Tg/year/grid box with a percent change of over 200% to the recalculated dust emissions from MERRA-2. These differences in wind speed propagated to a difference in dust mass emitted by the use of a static source function which aids in scaling the mass emitted by the availability of dust in each grid. Additionally, the magnitude of these differences varies seasonally.

Optimization of a 10–Step Reduced CH₄/O₂ Combustion Mechanism for RDRE Applications

A 10-step, 9-species reduced mechanism for methane/oxygen combustion is evaluated and optimized for use in rotating detonation rocket engine (RDRE) simulations at an operating pressure of 10 bar. The mechanism is assessed against GRI-Mech 3.0 for ignition delay times, adiabatic equilibrium temperature and species, Chapman-Jouguet (CJ) detonation parameters, and laminar flame speed. A sequential Nelder–Mead optimization procedure is applied to the rate constants of reactions R1, R4, and R5, targeting ignition delay agreement over the equivalence ratio range φ = 1.0–1.4 and temperature range T = 1400–2000 K. The optimized mechanism achieves ignition delay agreement within 28% of GRI-Mech 3.0 for the temperature range relevant to RDRE operation (τ ≥ 5 μs). Adiabatic equilibrium temperatures and CJ detonation parameters are reproduced within 0.15% of GRI-Mech 3.0 values, confirming thermodynamic consistency of the mechanism. Laminar flame speed predictions deviate significantly from GRI-Mech 3.0, which is attributed to the absence of HO₂ chemistry in the reduced mechanism; this limitation does not affect RDRE simulation fidelity since laminar flame propagation is of secondary importance in RDREs.

A Measurement of νe Appearance and νµ Disappearance Using 10 Years of Data from the NOvA Experiment

NOvA is a long baseline neutrino experiment with an 810 km baseline, using the NuMIbeam at Fermilab, and a functionally identical near and far detector operating at an angle14 mrad off axis from the beam. NOvA jointly measures muon neutrino (and antineutrino)disappearance and electron neutrino (and antineutrino) appearance to make a measurementof sin2θ23, δCP, and ∆m232, including its sign, the mass ordering.This dissertation reports a new measurement from NOvA, using 10 years of data, with a totalexposure of 26.6 ×1020 POT of neutrino beam and 12.5 ×1020 POT of antineutrino beam.This represents 95.6% more neutrino beam exposure since the last NOvA analysis. Aspects ofthe analysis are discussed in detail, including neutrino energy estimation, analysis systematicuncertainties, including the implementation of systematics new to the NOvA analysis, andthe Bayesian fit infrastructure using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC).The analysis yields the following credible intervals for the oscillation parameters assumingthe normal ordering: δCP = 0.930+0.210−0.290 π ∪0.150+0.150−0.110 π,∆m232 = 2.424+0.035−0.040 × 10−3eV2,and sin2θ23 = 0.55+0.02−0.06, with a 76% preference for normal ordering using a prior for sin2(2θ13)using Daya Bay’s measurement. If the Daya Bay sin2(2θ13) vs ∆m232 constraint is used as aprior instead, an 87% preference for normal ordering emerges.

The first crystal structure of a xylobiose-bound xylobiohydrolase with high functional specificity from the bacterial glycoside hydrolase family 30, subfamily 10

Xylobiose is a prebiotic sugar that has applications in functional foods. This report describes the first X-ray crystallographic structure models of apo and xylobiose-bound forms of a xylobiohydrolase (XBH) from Acetivibrio clariflavus. This xylan-active enzyme, a member of the recently described glycoside hydrolase family 30 (GH30), subfamily 10, phylogenetic clade has been shown to strictly release xylobiose as its primary hydrolysis product. Inspection of the apo structure reveals a glycone region X-2-binding slot. When X-2 binds, the non-reducing xylose in the -2 subsite is highly coordinated with numerous hydrogen bond contacts while contacts in the -1 subsite mostly reflect interactions typical for GH30 and enzymes in clan A of the carbohydrate-active enzymes database (CAZy). This structure provides an explanation for the high functional specificity of this new bacterial GH30 XBH subfamily.
