The proton charge radius

Nucleons (protons and neutrons) are the building blocks of atomic nuclei and are responsible for more than 99% of the visible matter in the Universe. Despite decades of efforts in studying its internal structure, there are still a number of puzzles surrounding the proton such as its spin and charge radius. Accurate knowledge about the proton charge radius is not only essential for understanding how QCD works in the nonperturbative region but also important for bound state QED calculations of atomic energy levels. It also has an impact on the Rydberg constant, one of the most precisely measured fundamental constants in nature. This review examines the latest situation concerning the proton charge radius in light of the new experimental results from both atomic hydrogen spectroscopy and electron-scattering measurements, with particular focus on the latter. Further, theoretical backgrounds and recent developments concerning the determination of the proton charge radius using different experimental techniques are also presented. Upcoming experiments are discussed, and the deuteron charge radius puzzle is mentioned at the end.

The broad-band X-ray spectrum of Cygnus X-2

Cygnus X-2 was observed with the broad-band X-ray spectroscopy experiment, HEAO 1 A-2, in the energy range 0.4-18 keV for four intervals of approximately 31 s over the course of 5 days in 1977. The spectra can be adequately represented by single-temperature thermal bremmstrahlung continua with temperatures ranging from 3.7 x 10 to the 7th K to 6.4 x 10 to the 7th K. An examination of the spectra and the spectra-luminosity relationship effectively rules out one degenerate dwarf model for the X-ray emission. The far-UV continuum emission could be dominated by this continuum component during X-ray high states, an effect which would be detected in optical UV line observations. A Comptonized X-ray cloud around a neutron star remains a viable model for the observed X-ray spectra.

Effects of Neutron Irradiation on the Micro/Nano Scale Structure and Fission Product Distribution of TRISO Coated Particle Fuel Kernels from AGR Experiments

The Advanced Reactor Technologies (ART) Program at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) includes the Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) fuel development and qualification program that consists of fuel fabrication, experiment irradiations, post-irradiation examination (PIE) and safety testing to assess tristructural isotropic (TRISO) fuel performance during normal irradiation and under potential accident conditions. Advanced microscopy work on selected AGR-1 and AGR-2 unirradiated and irradiated fuel specimens is performed as part of the PIE effort. PIE work on fuel from the first experiment irradiation, AGR-1, began at INL in April 2010, and AGR-2 PIE began at INL in July 2014. This work scope includes University of Florida (UF) performing advanced electron microscopy examination and analysis using facilities at the Center for Advanced Energy Studies (CAES), INL or UF’s electron microscopy facilities. Electron microscopic examination and analysis may include scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area diffraction (SAD), electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), electron dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and atom probe tomography (APT) on the fuel kernels of TRISO-coated fuel particles. The electron microscopy lamellae will be provided by INL and will be available at CAES or Irradiated Materials Characterization Laboratory (IMCL).

Characterization of in-situ and ex-situ ion-irradiated additively manufactured 316L and 316H stainless steels

Additively manufactured (AM) 316 stainless steel (SS) differs from its wrought counterpart in its unique dislocation cell structure and the presence of segregation and oxide particles at the cell walls. This work investigated the evolution of the microstructure in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) 316L and 316H SS under in-situ 1 MeV Kr ion irradiation at 600 °C to 5 dpa, and ex-situ 4 MeV Ni ion irradiation at 300 °C and 600 °C from 0.2 dpa to 10 dpa, with a dose rate for all experiments of 10 -3 dpa/s. The results reveal that the dislocation cell structure results in heterogeneous formation of dislocation loops and voids, particularly at 600 °C, where loops tend to form within the cell interiors while voids form at the cell boundaries. LPBF 316H has a reduced level of swelling compared to LPBF 316L due to prolonged incubation. Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) mapping indicates Ni and Si segregation at void surfaces due to radiation-induced segregation. At 300 °C, where voids are absent, the distribution of dislocation loops and stacking fault tetrahedra appears to be uniform. Dislocation cell structures mostly disappeared by 2 dpa for all conditions in this work. M 23 C 6 carbides were observed in LPBF 316H at 600 °C as early as 0.2 dpa, but not in LPBF 316L. Nanoindentation was performed to obtain the hardness of irradiated materials. In conclusion, this work illustrated the influence of additive manufacturing processes on microstructure evolution under irradiation, revealing the differences as well as the similarities as compared with wrought 316 SS, and the AM-related phenomenon that can potentially occur under neutron irradiation in nuclear reactors.

Hercules X-1: Spectral Variability of an X-Ray Pulsar in a Stellar Binary System

A cosmic X-ray spectroscopy experiment onboard the Orbiting Solar Observatory 8 (OSO-8), observed Her x-1 continuously for approximately 8 days. Spectral-temporal correlations of the X-ray emission were obtained. The major results concern observations of: (1) iron band emission, (2) spectral hardening (increase in effective x-ray temperature) within the X-ray pulse, and (3) a transition from an X-ray low state to a high state. The spectrum obtained prior to the high state can be interpreted as reflected emission from a hot coronal gas surrounding an accretion disk, which itself shields the primary X-ray source from the line of sight during the low state. The spectral hardening within the X-ray pulse was indicative of the beaming mechanism at the neutron star surface. The hardest spectrum by pulse phase was identified with the line of sight close to the Her x-1 magnetic dipole axis, and the X-ray pencil beam become harder with decreasing angle between the line of sight and the dipole axis.

An Atom Probe Tomography Study of the Through Wall Attenuation Effect on Cu-rich Precipitate Formation in a Reactor Pressure Vessel Steel

In this study, high-Cu weld material harvested from an ex service reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steel from Unit 1 of the decommissioned Zion Nuclear Generating Station has been characterized using atom probe tomography. Samples taken from 4 different positions through the thicknesses of the pressure vessel wall from the water-side to the air-side were characterized, along with an unirradiated baseline material. In the baseline material, no precipitates were found and the Cu was observed to be fully in solid solution; however, scanning transmission electron microscopy combined with energy dispersive spectroscopy (STEM-EDS) revealed the presence of ϵ -Cu that form during processing of the material and results in the concomitant decrease of matrix Cu. Following irradiation, a high number density of nano-scale Cu-rich precipitates (CRPs) were observed, uniformly distributed throughout the matrix. The Cu content within the CRPs was found to be ~30-35 at.% regardless of location in the wall. No statistically significant variation in the compositions, mean radius, number density, or volume fraction as a function of location within the wall was observed. The measured matrix Cu level excluding CRPs contribution was found to be ~90 appm higher than the solubility limit suggesting that further nucleation and growth of the CRPs under continued operations would have occurred. These results clearly demonstrate that the neutron energy attenuation has no significant effect on the precipitation kinetics of CRPs regardless of location in the wall in high-Cu RPV steels under irradiation.

Metal Mixing in the r -process Enhanced Ultrafaint Dwarf Galaxy Reticulum II

The ultrafaint dwarf galaxy Reticulum II was enriched by a single rare and prolific r-process event. The r-process content of Reticulum II thus provides a unique opportunity to study metal mixing in a relic first galaxy. Using multi-object high-resolution spectroscopy with VLT/GIRAFFE and Magellan/M2FS, we identify 32 clear spectroscopic member stars and measure abundances of Mg, Ca, Fe, and Ba where possible. We find $72^{+10}_{-12}$ of the stars are r-process-enhanced, with a mean $\langle$[Ba / H]$\rangle$ = -1.68 ± 0.07 and unresolved intrinsic dispersion σ [Ba/H] <0.20. The homogeneous r-process abundances imply that Ret II’s metals are well mixed by the time the r enhanced stars form, which simulations have shown requires at least 100 Myr of metal mixing in between bursts of star formation to homogenize. This is the first direct evidence of bursty star formation in an ultrafaint dwarf galaxy. The homogeneous dilution prefers a prompt and high-yield r-process site, such as collapsar disk winds or prompt neutron star mergers. We also find evidence from [Ba/H] and [Mg/Ca] that the r-enhanced stars in Ret II formed in the absence of substantial pristine gas accretion, perhaps indicating that ≈70% of Ret II stars formed after reionization.

X-ray spectroscopic investigation of crystal fields in Ce 2 Rh 1 − x Ir x In 8 heavy fermions

The higher dimensionality in the crystal fields of the Ce 2 M In 8 ( M = Rh , Ir ) compounds and its interplay with hybridization and disorder are key ingredients to understand the complex phase diagrams by this family, which have been explored extensively by macroscopic techniques. Here, we present an investigation of the crystal-electric field schemes of Ce 2 Rh 1 − x Ir x In 8 using x-ray absorption spectroscopy. Our full multiplet calculations for the 4 f 1 configuration of Ce 3 + to describe the temperature-dependent linear dichroism in Ce 2 M In 8 are consistent with a Γ 7 1 = 1 − α 2 · | ∓ 3 2 〉 − | α | · | ± 5 2 〉 ground state containing a predominant | ± 3 / 2 〉 contribution that increases further with x . This enhancement is believed to favor superconductivity in Ce-based heavy fermion materials, observed in previous results in the Ce M In 5 family. Our recent observations shed light on the unexpected emergence of the ambient-pressure superconducting dome in the center of the composition phase diagram and its subsequent suppression on the Ir-rich side due to the early onset of fluctuations associated with the structurally more disordered state, inferred from previous neutron magnetic diffraction experiments.

Correlating Broadband Photoluminescence with Structural Dynamics in Layered Hybrid Halide Perovskites

The emission of white light from a single material is atypical and is of interest for solid-state lighting applications. Broadband light emission has been observed in some layered perovskite derivatives, A 2 PbBr 4 (A = R-NH 3 + ), and correlates with static structural distortions corresponding to out-of-plane tilting of the lead bromide octahedra. While materials with different organic cations can yield distinct out-of-plane tilts, the underlying origin of the octahedral tilting remains poorly understood. Using high energy resolution (e.g., quasi-elastic) neutron scattering, this contribution details the rotational dynamics of the organic cations in A 2 PbBr 4 materials where A = n-butylammonium (nBA), 1,8-diaminooctammonium (ODA), and 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA). The organic cation dynamics differentiate (nBA) 2 PbBr 4 from (ODA)PbBr 4 or (GABA) 2 PbBr 4 in that the larger spatial extent of dynamics of nBA yields a larger effective cation radius. The larger effective volume of the nBA cation in (nBA) 2 PbBr 4 yields a closer to ideal A-site geometry, preventing the out-of-plane tilt and broadband luminescence. In all three compounds, we observe hydrogen dynamics attributed to rotation of the ammonium headgroup and at a time scale faster than the white light photoluminescence studied by time-correlated single photon counting spectroscopy. This supports a previous assignment of the broadband emission as resulting from a single ensemble, such that the emissive excited state experiences many local structures faster than the emissive decay. Furthermore, the findings presented here highlight the role of the organic cation and its dynamics in hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites and white light emission.

Origin of gaplike behaviors in URu 2 Si 2 : Combined study via quasiparticle scattering spectroscopy and resistivity measurements

In this work, we address two long-standing questions regarding the hidden order in URu 2 Si 2 : Is it associated with the hybridization process, and what are the distinct roles played by the localized and itinerant electrons? Our quasiparticle scattering spectroscopy reveals a hybridization gap ubiquitous in the entire phase space spanned by P and Fe substitutions in URu 2 Si 2 , including the no-order and antiferromagnetic regions, with minimal change upon crossing the phase boundary. This indicates its opening is not associated with the ordering, and thus localized electrons must be the major player. Towards a consistent understanding of all the other gaplike behaviors observed only below transition temperatures, we analyze the electrical resistivity using a model in which gapped bosonic excitations are the dominant scattering source. With their stiffness set to follow an unusual temperature dependence (decreasing with decreasing temperature), this model fits all of our resistivity data well including the jump at the transition. Remarkably, the extracted gap increases slowly with increasing Fe content, similarly to the gap detected by inelastic neutron scattering at $Q_1$ = (1.4, 0, 0), suggesting a common origin. Such a model can also naturally explain the Hall effect temperature dependence without invoking Fermi surface gapping.

Resonant Tender X-ray Scattering for Disclosing the Backbone Conformation of Conjugated Polymers

The backbone conformation of conjugated polymers (CPs) is essential to their performance in electronic applications. Contrast-variation small-angle neutron scattering (CV-SANS) techniques were used to assess the CP’s backbone conformation, which relies on synthesis of deuterated polymers. Such a technique has been proven mature and effective. One drawback is that deuteration labeling might subtly alter polymer’s physical properties due to structural modifications. To address these challenges, we introduce a novel approach utilizing tender Xray scattering near the sulfur K-edge to distinctly evaluate the backbone versus whole chain conformation for a low-bandgap donor−acceptor CP, poly[(5,6-difluoro- 2,1,3-benzothiadiazol-4,7-diyl)-alt-(3,3‴-dialkyl-2,2′;5′,2″;5″,2‴-quaterthiophen-5,5‴- diyl)] (PffBT4T). For PffBT4T dissolved in trimethylbenzene (TMB), the sulfur K-edge is identified at approximately 2477 eV using near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS). Tender X-ray scattering conducted at presulfur K-edge and on-sulfur K-edge at elevated temperatures facilitated the distinction between the backbone and whole chain conformations. The results demonstrate that for highly flexible polymer, the backbone’s persistence length could be lower than that of the whole chains, suggesting a more flexible backbone. This rapid, label-free method enhances our ability to characterize CP’s backbone conformation efficiently, offering significant implications for the design and optimization of CPs for advanced electronics.

The ultraviolet spectrum of the Crab Nebula

Ultraviolet spectroscopy of the Crab Nebula done by the International Ultraviolet Explorer satellite is described, and an estimate of the carbon abundance is made, noting data reduction to remove spectral defects caused by radiation hits. The important C IV 1549, He II 1640, and semiforbidden C III 1908 emission line intensities were measured and upper limits placed on other ultraviolet features for the brightest filamentary region in the Nebula. The emission lines imply an average ionic abundance ratio n(C+2)/n(O+2) in the range from 0.4 to 1.5 in the observed gaseous condensations. The elemental abundance ratio of carbon to oxygen is probably in the same range. Analysis shows that there is no perceptible excess of carbon due to presupernova nucleosynthesis in the observed region. The large helium abundance, small carbon and oxygen abundances, and presence of a neutron star in the Crab Nebula suggest that the presupernova star had a mass close to eight solar masses.

Impact of Backbone Rigidity on the Thermomechanical Properties of Semiconducting Polymers with Conjugation Break Spacers

There remains a lack of fundamental understanding in theroleofbackbonerigidityonthe thermomechanical properties of conjugated polymers. Here, we provide the first holistic approach to understand the fundamental influence of backbone rigidity on an n-type naphthalene diimide-based conjugated polymer, denoted by PNDI-Cx, through insertion of a flexible conjugation break spacer (CBS). CBS lengths are varied from fully conjugated with zero alkyl spacer (PNDI-C0) to a seven- carbon alkyl spacer (PNDI-C 7 ), with the CBS engineered into each repeat unit for systematic evaluation. Solution small-angle neutron scattering and oscillatory shear rheometry were employed to provide the first quantitative evidence of CBS influence over conjugated polymer chain rigidity and entanglement molecular weight (M e ), demonstrating a reduction in the Kuhn length from 521 to 36 Å for fully conjugated PNDI-C0 and PNDI-C6, respectively, as well as a nearly consistent Me of ~15 kDa upon the addition of CBS. Thermomechanical properties, such as elastic modulus and glass-transition temperature, were shown to decrease with an increasing length of CBS. An extraordinary ductility, upwards of 400% tensile strain before fracture, was observed for high-molecular-weight PNDI-C4, which we attribute to a high number of entanglements and disruption of crystallization. Furthermore, the deformation mechanism for PNDI-Cx was studied under strain through X-ray diffraction, polarized UV-vis spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Overall, this work sheds light on the important role of backbone rigidity in designing flexible and stretchable conjugated polymers.

A multi-channel x-ray temporal diagnostic for measurement of time-resolved electron temperature in cryogenic deuterium–tritium implosions at OMEGA

Electron-temperature (T e ) measurements in implosions provide valuable diagnostic information, as Te is unaffected by residual flows and other non-thermal effects unlike ion temperature inferred from a fusion product spectrum. In OMEGA cryogenic implosions, measurement of T e (t) can be used to investigate effects related to time-resolved hot-spot energy balance. The proposed diagnostic utilizes five fast-rise (~15 ps) scintillator channels with distinct x-ray filtering. Furthermore, titanium and stepped aluminum filtering were chosen to maximize detector sensitivity in the 10 keV–20 keV range, as it has been shown that these x rays have similar density and temperature weighting to the emitted deuterium–tritium fusion neutrons. Initial data collected using a prototype nosecone on the existing neutron temporal diagnostic demonstrate the validity of this diagnostic technique. The proposed system will be capable of measuring spatially integrated T e (t) with 20 ps time resolution and <10% uncertainty at peak emission in cryogenic DT implosions.

Updated constraints from electric dipole moments in the MSSM with R-parity violation

We revisit the electric dipole moments (EDMs) of quarks and leptons in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with trilinear R-parity violation (RPV). In this framework, EDMs are induced at the two-loop level via RPV interactions. We perform a comprehensive recalculation of several classes of Barr-Zee type diagrams in a general Rξ gauge. While we find general agreement with previous analytic results in the literature, our work provides a valuable independent cross-check of the complicated calculations. We also point out some subtleties in the intermediate steps and in the choice of the flavor basis for the numerical evaluation of the expressions. By confronting the theoretical predictions with the latest experimental limits on EDMs, we derive updated constraints on combinations of RPV couplings. We highlight an approximate, testable correlation between the proton and neutron EDM that emerges within the considered class of RPV models, offering a distinctive signature for future EDM experiments.

Molecular simulations and NMR reveal how lipid fluctuations affect membrane mechanics

Lipid bilayers form the main matrix of functional cell membranes, and their dynamics underlie a host of physical and biological processes. Here we show that elastic membrane properties and collective molecular dynamics (MD) are related by the mean-square amplitudes (order parameters) and relaxation rates (correlation times) of lipid acyl chain motions. We performed all-atom MD simulations of liquid-crystalline bilayers that allow direct comparison with carbon-hydrogen (CH) bond relaxations measured with NMR spectroscopy. Previous computational and theoretical approaches have assumed isotropic relaxation, which yields inaccurate description of lipid chain dynamics and incorrect data interpretation. Instead, the new framework includes a fixed bilayer normal (director axis) and restricted anisotropic motion of the CH bonds in accord with their segmental order parameters, enabling robust validation of lipid force fields. Simulated spectral densities of thermally excited CH bond fluctuations exhibited well-defined spin-lattice (Zeeman) relaxations analogous to those in NMR measurements. Their frequency signature could be fit to a simple power-law function, indicative of nematic-like collective dynamics. Moreover, calculated relaxation rates scaled as the squared order parameters yielding an apparent K C modulus for bilayer bending. Our results show a strong correlation with K C values obtained from solid-state NMR studies of bilayers without and with cholesterol as validated by neutron spin-echo measurements of membrane elasticity. The simulations uncover a critical role of interleaflet coupling in membrane mechanics and thus provide important insights into molecular sites of emerging elastic properties within lipid bilayers.

Two-neutron knockout as a probe of the composition of states in Mg 22 , Al 23 , and Si 24

Simpson and Tostevin proposed that the width and shape of exclusive parallel momentum distributions of the A - 2 residue in direct two-nucleon knockout reactions carry a measurable sensitivity to the nucleon single-particle configurations and their couplings within the wave functions of exotic nuclei. We further report here on the first benchmarks and use of this new spectroscopic tool. Exclusive parallel momentum distributions for states in the neutron-deficient nuclei Mg 22 , Al 23 , and Si 24 populated in such direct two-neutron removal reactions were extracted and compared to predictions combining eikonal reaction theory and shell-model calculations. For the well-known Mg 22 and Al 23 nuclei, measurements and calculations were found to agree, supporting the dependence of the parallel momentum distribution width on the angular momentum composition of the shell-model two-neutron amplitudes. In Si 24 , a level at 3439(9) keV, of relevance for the important Al 23 ( p , γ ) Si 24 astrophysical reaction rate, was confirmed to be the 2 2 + state, whereas the 4 1 + state, expected to be strongly populated in two-neutron knockout, was not observed. This puzzle is resolved by theoretical considerations of the Thomas-Ehrman shift, which also indicates that a previously reported 3471-keV state in Si 24 is, in fact, the ( 0 2 + ) level with one of the largest experimental mirror-energy shifts ever observed.

ROADRUNNER MiniFuel Experiment: Irradiation Target Design and Sample Characterization

High-density uranium nitride (UN) is a fuel candidate for several advanced nuclear reactor designs currently under development. Because there are limited UN performance data relative to fuel fabrication impurity and density variation, an irradiation campaign has been developed as part of a collaborative effort among the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), Westinghouse Electric Company, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), and Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) under the Nuclear Science User Facilities program. This project, entitled ROADRUNNER, or Research On ADvancing the peRformance of UraNium Nitrides in Extreme enviRonments, aimsto support UN fuel qualification for advanced reactors by investigating the impact of density and impurity variations on UN performance as a function of irradiation temperature and burnup. The MiniFuel experiment vehicle developed by ORNL, which leverages the High Flux Isotope Reactor, was selected to perform this accelerated separate-effects irradiation testing. The experiment test matrix consists of six MiniFuel targets containing miniature UN fuel disks, and targets three distinct burnup levels (37.5, 60, and 75 MWd/kg U) and three distinct temperatures (600, 900, and 1200°C). Neutronics and thermal analyses were performed to determine the experimental parameters needed to meet the desired irradiation conditions and to predict the experiment components temperatures. UN pellets were fabricated at LANL with tightly controlled parameters to produce specimens with three distinct densities and three levels of carbon content. The pellets were then thinned down by UTSA to the experiment-required thickness. The pre-characterization of the specimens includes density measurements, carbon and oxygen contents, microstructure analysis, and x-ray computed tomography. The selected specimens will be assembled into the MiniFuel experiment, and the first ROADRUNNER MiniFuel targets are intended for HFIR insertion during the Fall of 2024. After irradiation, the targets will be shipped to ORNL’s hot cell facility for disassembly. The post-irradiation examination on the fuel specimens includes fission gas release measurements, visual inspection, fuel swelling measurements, gamma spectroscopy, and microstructure analysis. The data collected post-irradiation will be used to develop fuel performance models.
