CTAP REPORT. Commercialization of Power Spectrum Analysis (PSA) Technology

Power Spectrum Analysis (PSA) is a Sandia-developed, non-intrusive, electrical technique that captures distinct frequency-domain signatures of microelectronics devices using an innovative, unconventional biasing scheme (off-normal biasing). PSA can identify subtle differences in devices and is applicable in various areas such as device screening, counterfeit identification, reliability assurance, and trust authentication. From October 2020 to April 2021, Sandia worked with entrepreneurs from a new start-up company, Chiplytics, to commercialize PSA technology through NNSA-sponsored FedTech Program. In September 2021, Sandia received funding through Covid-19 Technical Assistance Program (CTAP) to provide technical assistance to Chiplytics for commercialization. Under the CTAP Statement of Work, Sandia was tasked with providing technical assistance to Chiplytics in PSA pilot testing for Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) at Crane and other pilot participants. Sandia was also tasked with assisting Chiplytics in hardware development and evaluation of Chiplytics prototype system.

Studies for the selection of fully contained muon neutrino CC events in the ICARUS T600 detector at Fermilab

The ICARUS T600 LAr-TPC detector has started its new physics runs in June 2022 at Fermilab within the SBN program. This detector is recording neutrino interactions from the Booster BNB neutrino beam in order to definitively clarify the open questions related to the possible existence of sterile neutrinos, as suggested by numerous observed experimental anomalies. In addition the neutrinos events recorded from the NuMI off-axis beam are under study in order to perform neutrino-Argon cross section measurements. At Fermilab, ICARUS is facing a challenging experimental condition: the detector is presently installed essentially at Earth surface where cosmic ray particles can become a serious source of background for the neutrino event search. This condition makes it necessary to deploy suitable automatic tools for the identification, selection, and measurement of the neutrino events among the millions of events triggered by cosmics. In this contribution, two automatic selection procedures devoted to the identification of fully contained muon neutrino interactions in the BNB neutrino beam will be presented, together with the first results of their application on simulated and on recently recorded events in the T600 detector.

Investigation of the modes of NO adsorption in Pd/H-CHA

This study investigates NO adsorption on Pd-exchanged chabazite (Pd/H-CHA), a promising passive NO x adsorber (PNA) for capturing cold-start NO x emissions of gasoline- and diesel-powered vehicles. Here, temperature-programed desorption (TPD) and IR spectroscopy are combined with theoretical calculations to elucidate how and where NO is stored, and how water and O 2 affect this process. NO adsorption on Pd/H-CHA produces two TPD features, around 423 and 753 K, and IR bands centered at 1860 and 1810 cm –1 . Calculated NO stretching frequencies and maximum-desorption temperatures reveal that Pd 2+ and Pd + sites are responsible for these low- and high-temperature features, respectively, and that while the IR feature at 1810 cm –1 is due to NO adsorption on Pd + , the 1860 cm –1 feature contains contributions from both weakly-bound NO on Pd 2+ and more strongly bound NO on Pd + , consistent with experimentally observed effects of water and O 2 .

Overview of International Activities in Hydrogen System Safety in IEA Hydrogen TCP Task 43

Safety and reliability have long been recognized as key issues for the development, commercialization, and implementation of new technologies and infrastructure, and hydrogen systems are no exception to this rule. Reliability engineering, quantitative risk assessment (QRA), and knowledge exchange each play a key role in proactive addressing safety - before problems happen - and help us learn from problems if they happen. Many international research activities are focusing on both reliability and risk assessment for hydrogen systems. However, the element of knowledge exchange is sometimes less visible. To support international collaboration and knowledge exchange, the International Energy Agency (IEA) convened a new Technology Collaboration Program, "Task 43: Safety and Regulatory Aspects of Emerging Large Scale Hydrogen Energy Applications" started in June 2022. Within Task 43, Subtask E focuses on Hydrogen Systems Safety. This paper discusses the structure of the Hydrogen Systems Safety subtask and the aligned activities and introduces opportunities for future work.

Celestial holography meets twisted holography: 4d amplitudes from chiral correlators

We propose a new program for computing a certain integrand of scattering amplitudes of four-dimensional gauge theories which we call the form factor integrand, starting from 6d holomorphic theories on twistor space. We show that the form factor integrands can be expressed as sums of products of 1.) correlators of a 2d chiral algebra, related to the algebra of asymptotic symmetries uncovered recently in the celestial holography program, and 2.) OPE coefficients of a 4d non-unitary CFT. We prove that conformal blocks of the chiral algebras are in one-to-one correspondence with local operators in 4d. We use this bijection to recover the Parke-Taylor formula, the CSW formula, and certain one-loop scattering amplitudes. Along the way, we explain and derive various aspects of celestial holography, incorporating techniques from the twisted holography program such as Koszul duality. This perspective allows us to easily and efficiently recover the infinite-dimensional chiral algebras of asymptotic symmetries recently extracted from scattering amplitudes of massless gluons and gravitons in the celestial basis. We also compute some simple one-loop corrections to the chiral algebras and derive the three-dimensional bulk theories for which these 2d algebras furnish an algebra of boundary local operators.
