Velocity Dependence of Rate‐And‐State Friction in Granular Fault Gouge and Implications for Slow‐Slip Events

Abstract The standard rate‐and‐state friction (RSF) has extensively captured frictional behaviors, but it fails to explain the velocity dependence of frictional stability transition and widespread slow‐slip events (SSEs) in experiments and nature adequately. An alternative microphysical Chen‐Niemeijer‐Spiers (CNS) model can well describe the velocity dependence of frictional behaviors of granular gouges. Using the original CNS model, standard RSF parameters can be quantified microphysically. However, some micro‐parameters are not easy to estimate quantitatively, making it difficult to extrapolate to natural and experimental conditions. Here, we simplify the microphysically‐derived RSF parameters including direct effect a , evolution effect b , and critical slip distance D c , as well as equivalent values ( a eq , b eq , and D eq ). The simplified friction parameters directly illustrate their velocity dependence, namely the essentially constant a , a eq , and D c , negatively velocity‐dependent b and b eq , as well as varying D eq for different laws. They are roughly consistent with experimental results in various fault gouges. A modified CNS model is further derived from the original CNS model, establishing a direct link between the standard RSF and CNS models. The modified CNS model exhibits virtually identical frictional behaviors to the original CNS, but differs from the standard RSF at large velocity perturbations. Moreover, the linearized stability analysis indicates that the critical stiffness for the modified CNS model is velocity‐dependent. Compared with the standard RSF, the modified CNS model not only explains the velocity dependence of frictional stability transition, but also exhibits a more gradual transition for SSEs with a broader range of stiffness ratios.

A constraint-based framework for exploring the impact of multireaction dependencies on metabolic functions

Abstract Metabolism operates under physico-chemical constraints that result in multireaction dependencies. Understanding how multireaction dependencies affect metabolic phenotypes remains challenging, hindering their biotechnological applications. Here, we propose the concept of a forcedly balanced complex that allows to efficiently determine the effects of specific multireaction dependencies on metabolic network functions in constrained-based models. Using this concept, we found that the fraction of multireaction dependencies induced by forcedly balanced complexes in genome-scale metabolic networks followed power law with exponential cut-off. We identified forcedly balanced complexes that are lethal in cancer but have little effect on growth in healthy tissue models. In addition, these forcedly balanced complexes are largely specific to models of particular cancer types. Therefore, multireaction dependencies resulting from forced balancing of complexes represent an innovative means to control cancers that, we argue, can be implemented via transporter engineering. The presented constraint-based approaches pave the way for using multireaction dependencies in metabolic engineering for diverse biotechnological applications.

Layer and material-type dependent photoresponse in Se 2 /WS 2 vertical heterostructures

Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) heterostructures are promising for a variety of applications in photovoltaics and photosensing. Successfully exploiting these heterostructures will require an understanding of their layer-dependent electronic structures. However, there is no experimental data demonstrating the layer-number dependence of photovoltaic effects (PVEs) in vertical TMD heterojunctions. Here, by combining scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM) with optical probes, we report the first layer-dependence of photocurrents in WSe 2 /WS 2 vertical heterostructures as well as in pristine WS 2 and WSe 2 layers. For WS 2 , we find that photocurrents increase with increasing layer thickness, whereas for WSe 2 the layer dependence is more complex and depends on both the layer number and applied bias (V b ). Further, we find that photocurrents in the WSe 2 /WS 2 heterostructures exhibit anomalous layer and material-type dependent behaviors. Our results advance the understanding of photoresponse in atomically thin WSe 2 /WS 2 heterostructures and pave the way to novel nanoelectronic and optoelectronic devices.

Phylogenetic distribution and experimental characterization of corrinoid production and dependence in soil bacterial isolates

Abstract Soil microbial communities impact carbon sequestration and release, biogeochemical cycling, and agricultural yields. These global effects rely on metabolic interactions that modulate community composition and function. However, the physicochemical and taxonomic complexity of soil and the scarcity of available isolates for phenotypic testing are significant barriers to studying soil microbial interactions. Corrinoids—the vitamin B12 family of cofactors—are critical for microbial metabolism, yet they are synthesized by only a subset of microbiome members. Here, we evaluated corrinoid production and dependence in soil bacteria as a model to investigate the ecological roles of microorganisms involved in metabolic interactions. We isolated and characterized a taxonomically diverse collection of 161 soil bacteria from a single study site. Most corrinoid-dependent bacteria in the collection prefer B12 over other corrinoids, while all tested producers synthesize B12, indicating metabolic compatibility between producers and dependents in the collection. Furthermore, a subset of producers release B12 at levels sufficient to support dependent isolates in laboratory culture at estimated ratios of up to 1000 dependents per producer. Within our isolate collection, we did not find strong phylogenetic patterns in corrinoid production or dependence. Upon investigating trends in the phylogenetic dispersion of corrinoid metabolism categories across sequenced bacteria from various environments, we found that these traits are conserved in 47 out of 85 genera. Together, these phenotypic and genomic results provide evidence for corrinoid-based metabolic interactions among bacteria and provide a framework for the study of nutrient-sharing ecological interactions in microbial communities.

Nonlocal and nonadiabatic Pauli potential for time-dependent orbital-free density functional theory

Time-dependent orbital-free density functional theory is an efficient ab initio method for calculating the electronic dynamics of large systems. In comparison to standard time-dependent density functional theory, it computes only a single electronic state regardless of system size, but it requires an additional time-dependent Pauli potential term. Herein we propose a nonadiabatic and nonlocal Pauli potential whose main ingredients are the time-dependent particle and current densities. Our calculations of the optical spectra of metallic and semiconductor clusters indicate that nonlocal and nonadiabatic time-dependent orbital-free density functional theory performs accurately for metallic systems and semiquantitatively for semiconductors. This paper opens the door to wide applicability of time-dependent orbital-free density functional theory for nonequilibrium electron and electron-nuclear dynamics of complex materials.

Layer-dependent optically induced spin polarization in InSe

Optical control of spin in semiconductors has been pioneered using nanostructures of III-V and II-VI semi-conductors, but the emergence of two-dimensional van der Waals materials offers an alternative low-dimensional platform for spintronic phenomena. Indium selenide (InSe), a group-III monochalcogenide van der Waals material, has shown promise for optoelectronics due to its high electron mobility, tunable direct band gap, and quantum transport. In addition to these confirmed properties, there are predictions of spin-dependent optical selection rules, suggesting the potential for all-optical excitation and control of spin in a two-dimensional layered material. Despite these predictions, layer-dependent optical spin phenomena in InSe have yet to be explored. Here, we present measurements of layer-dependent optical spin dynamics in few-layer and bulk InSe. Polarized photoluminescence reveals layer-dependent optical orientation of spin, thereby demonstrating the optical selection rules in few-layer InSe. Spin dynamics are also studied in many-layer InSe using time-resolved Kerr rotation spectroscopy. By applying out-of-plane and in-plane static magnetic fields for polarized emission measurements and Kerr measurements, respectively, the g factor for InSe was extracted. Further investigations are done by calculating precession values using a k · p model, which is supported by ab initio density functional theory. Comparison of predicted precession rates with experimental measurements highlights the importance of excitonic effects in InSe for understanding spin dynamics. In conclusion, optical orientation of spin is an important prerequisite for optospintronic phenomena and devices, and these first demonstrations of layer-dependent optical excitation of spins in InSe lay the foundation for combining layer-dependent spin properties with advantageous electronic properties found in this material.

Revisiting shear stress tensor evolution: Nonresistive magnetohydrodynamics with momentum-dependent relaxation time

This study aims to develop second-order relativistic viscous magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) derived from kinetic theory within an extended relaxation time approximation (momentum/energy dependent) for the collision kernel. The investigation involves a detailed examination of shear stress tensor evolution equations and associated transport coefficients. The Boltzmann equation is solved using a Chapman-Enskog-like gradient expansion for a charge-conserved conformal system, incorporating a momentum-dependent relaxation time. The derived relativistic nonresistive, viscous second-order MHD equations for the shear stress tensor reveal significant modifications in the coupling with dissipative charge current and magnetic field due to the momentum dependence of the relaxation time. By utilizing a power law parametrization to quantify the momentum dependence of the relaxation time, the anisotropic magnetic field-dependent shear coefficients in the Navier-Stokes limit have been investigated. The resulting viscous coefficients are seen to be sensitive to the momentum dependence of the relaxation time.

PVEMC: isolating the flavor-dependent EMC effect using parity-violating inelastic scattering in SoLID

In order to better understand the EMC effect, we propose a clean and precise measurement of the flavor dependence of the EMC effect using parity-violating deep inelastic scattering on a 48 Ca target. This measurement will provide an extremely sensitive test for flavor dependence in the modification of nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs) for neutron-rich nuclei. A measurement of the flavor dependence will provide new and vital information and help to explain nucleon modification at the quark level. In addition to helping understand the origin of the EMC effect, a flavor-dependent nuclear pdf modification could significantly impact a range of processes, including neutrino-nucleus scattering, nuclear Drell-Yan processes, and e-A observables at the Electron-Ion Collider. The parity-violating asymmetry A PV from 48 Ca using an 11 GeV beam at 80 μA will be measured using the SoLID detector, proposed for a series of measurements in Hall A at Jefferson Lab. In 68 days of data taking, we will reach 0.7–1.3% statistical precision for 0.2 < x < 0.7 with 0.6–0.7 systematic uncertainties. Here, the goal is to make the first direct measurement of the flavor dependence of the EMC effect. The precision of the measurement will allow for quantification of the flavor-dependent effects, greatly improving our ability to differentiate between models of the EMC effect and constraining the u- and d-quark contributions in neutron rich nuclei.

Mathematical Modeling of the Potential and Time Dependence of Ir Dissolution from Hydrous Ir Oxide Oxygen Evolution Catalysts

One of the main degradation mechanisms of hydrous iridium oxide acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts is dissolution and loss into the acidic membrane. While degradation models have been proposed, there is a gap in understanding the potential and time dependence of the iridium dissolution reaction and its mechanistic underpinnings. In this work, Ir dissolution rates measured as a function of time and potential via time-resolved inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) in aqueous acidic electrolyte are used to establish a mathematical model for Ir dissolution. The mathematical model is generated using proposed formation and dissolution reactions for Ir species. Through comparison with the ICP-MS data and existing information on the potential-dependent Ir phase, we find that the potential and time-dependence of dissolution can be modeled as dissolution of an oxide phase, here represented as IrO 2 , with potential dependent kinetics and formation of a passivating species, a process with a rate-limiting step that is not potential dependent. This understanding of the potential dependence of dissolution and passivation kinetics using aqueous electrolyte half-cell measurements can be used to predict the degradation of Ir oxide in operating energy conversion devices relying on the OER, such as proton-exchange membrane water electrolyzers.

Effects from Time Dependence of Ice Nucleus Activity for Contrasting Cloud Types

Abstract The role of time-dependent freezing of ice nucleating particles (INPs) is evaluated with the “Aerosol–Cloud” (AC) model in 1) deep convection observed over Oklahoma during the Midlatitude Continental Convective Cloud Experiment (MC3E), 2) orographic clouds observed over North California during the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Cloud Aerosol Precipitation Experiment (ACAPEX), and 3) supercooled, stratiform clouds over the United Kingdom, observed during the Aerosol Properties, Processes And Influences on the Earth’s climate (APPRAISE) campaign. AC uses the dynamical core of the WRF Model and has hybrid bin–bulk microphysics and a 3D mesoscale domain. AC is validated against coincident aircraft, ground-based, and satellite observations for all three cases. Filtered concentrations of ice (>0.1–0.2 mm) agree with those observed at all sampled levels. AC predicts the INP activity of various types of aerosol particles with an empirical parameterization (EP), which follows a singular approach (no time dependence). Here, the EP is modified to represent time-dependent INP activity by a purely empirical approach, using our published laboratory observations of time-dependent INP activity. In all simulated clouds, the inclusion of time dependence increases the predicted INP activity of mineral dust particles by 0.5–1 order of magnitude. However, there is little impact on the cloud glaciation because the total ice is mostly (80%–90%) from secondary ice production (SIP) at levels warmer than about −36°C. The Hallett–Mossop process and fragmentation in ice–ice collisions together initiate about 70% of the total ice, whereas fragmentation during both raindrop freezing and sublimation contributes <10%. Overall, total ice concentrations and SIP are unaffected by time-dependent INP activity. In the simulated APPRAISE case, the main causes of persistence of long-lived clouds and precipitation are predicted to be SIP in weak embedded convection and reactivation following recirculation of dust particles in supercooled layer cloud.

Tail Dependence as a Measure of Teleconnected Warm and Cold Extremes of North American Wintertime Temperatures

Current models for spatial extremes are concerned with the joint upper (or lower) tail of the distribution at two or more locations. Such models cannot account for teleconnection patterns of 2-m surface air temperature ( T 2m ) in North America, where very low temperatures in the contiguous United States may coincide with very high temperatures in Alaska in the wintertime. This dependence between warm and cold extremes motivates the need for a model with opposite-tail dependence in spatial extremes. This work develops a statistical modeling framework that has flexible behavior in all four pairings of high and low extremes at pairs of locations. In particular, we use a mixture of rotations of common Archimedean copulas to capture various combinations of four-corner tail dependence. We study teleconnected T 2m extremes using ERA5 of daily average 2-m temperature during the boreal winter. Further, the estimated mixture model quantifies the strength of opposite-tail dependence between warm temperatures in Alaska and cold temperatures in the midlatitudes of North America, as well as the reverse pattern. These dependence patterns are shown to correspond to blocked and zonal patterns of midtropospheric flow. This analysis extends the classical notion of correlation-based teleconnections to considering dependence in higher quantiles.

Energy-dependent and Energy-integrated Two-moment General-relativistic Neutrino Transport Simulations of a Hypermassive Neutron Star

Abstract We compare two-moment-based energy-dependent and three variants of energy-integrated neutrino transport general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics simulations of a hypermassive neutron star. To study the impacts due to the choice of the neutrino transport schemes, we perform simulations with the same setups and input neutrino microphysics. We show that the main differences between energy-dependent and energy-integrated neutrino transport are found in the disk and ejecta properties, as well as in the neutrino signals. The properties of the disk surrounding the neutron star and the ejecta in energy-dependent transport are very different from the ones obtained using energy-integrated schemes. Specifically, in the energy-dependent case, the disk is more neutron-rich at early times and becomes geometrically thicker at later times. In addition, the ejecta is more massive and, on average, more neutron-rich in the energy-dependent simulations. Moreover, the average neutrino energies and luminosities are about 30% higher. Energy-dependent neutrino transport is necessary if one wants to better model the neutrino signals and matter outflows from neutron star merger remnants via numerical simulations.

The anaerobic fungus Caecomyces churrovis produces H 2 via a non-bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme complex

ABSTRACT Hydrogenosomes are mitochondria-derived organelles that produce ATP and H 2 to support energy metabolism in anaerobic eukaryotes. H 2 production allows reoxidation of reduced cofactors generated during fermentative metabolism; however, the metabolic mechanisms for H 2 production in anaerobic eukaryotes remains incompletely understood. In particular, it remains unclear whether anaerobic fungi (AF) hydrogenosomes use a ferredoxin-dependent pathway or a distinct mechanism to regenerate NAD(P) + and link electron transfer to H 2 formation. Here, by combining genomic search, proteomic analysis, and enzymology, we reveal the molecular mechanism for H 2 production in the AF strain Caecomyces churrovis . Our enzyme assays on the organelle fraction of C. churrovis revealed the activity of H 2 :NAD + oxidoreductase but not pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase, which is usually linked to H 2 formation. We identified genes encoding [FeFe] hydrogenase (Hyd) and NADH dehydrogenase subunits E and F (NuoE, NuoF) in C. churrovis , and confirmed their expression in the isolated hydrogenosomal fractions by proteomic analysis. Combining the individually purified enzymes, we found Hyd and NuoEF proteins formed H 2 directly from NADH independently of ferredoxin, functioning as a non-bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme rather than an electron-bifurcating enzyme. We identified homologs of hydrogenosomal NuoE, NuoF, and Hyd in many other AF, indicating this pathway is commonly shared among the AF. This work demonstrates the existence of a non-bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme complex in eukaryotes. Moreover, this complex could potentially be exploited as a target for controlling AF H 2 production and altering fungal metabolism. IMPORTANCE H 2 production is a prominent feature of anaerobic energy metabolism, yet our understanding of eukaryotic mechanisms remains limited. Anaerobic fungi (AF) are key decomposers of lignocellulose and contribute to hydrogen flux in anaerobic environments. Although it has been more than 40 years since the H 2 production from AF was first reported, the molecular mechanism for hydrogenosomal H 2 production and redox balance remains unclear. We demonstrate that AF produce H 2 from NADH utilizing a non-bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme complex rather than an electron-bifurcating, ferredoxin-dependent variant. We show that this enzyme complex is conserved across multiple AF lineages and thus demonstrate the occurrence of a non-bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme in eukaryotes. This discovery expands our understanding of eukaryotic hydrogenosomal metabolism, reveals a previously unknown strategy for redox balancing, and highlights potential targets for manipulating H 2 production. These insights have broad implications for microbial energy metabolism, anaerobic ecosystems, and bioengineering of H 2 -producing systems.

Extracting dependencies between network assets using deep learning

A network analysis tool receives network flow information and uses deep learning—machine learning that models high-level abstractions in the network flow information—to identify dependencies between network assets. Based on the identified dependencies, the network analysis tool can discover functional relationships between network assets. For example, a network analysis tool receives network flow information, identifies dependencies between multiple network assets based on evaluation of the network flow information, and outputs results of the identification of the dependencies. When evaluating the network flow information, the network analysis tool can pre-process the network flow information to produce input vectors, use deep learning to extract patterns in the input vectors, and then determine dependencies based on the extracted patterns. The network analysis tool can repeat this process so as to update an assessment of the dependencies between network assets on a near real-time basis.

Energy Dependence in the Neutrino Scattering Data of MINERvA

As we prepare for lower neutrino energy beams where physics is highly energy-dependent, it is important to isolate factors that can contribute largely to these low energy neutrino experiments. The world of neutrino oscillation experiments uses a wide range of energies: from 0.7 GeV beam of T2K and MicroBooNE, 2 GeV beam of NOvA, to the 0.6 to 6.0 GeV beam produced by DUNE in the future. MINERvA’s data are currently the best place to test the upper end of the range for DUNE and can be extrapolated into both DUNE’s and NOvA’s oscillation maximum. The goal of the research is to constrain energy dependence in the neutrino scattering experiment using data from MINERvA and then determine what factors contribute to the observed energy dependence. The research is divided into two parts. First, I will analyze different theoretical models in different channels of interaction, such as the quasi-elastic and delta resonance channels, in terms of neutrino energy dependence. The goal is to study the models at the level of the structure functions, which emphasizes the W2 structure function (the C function for QE) dominates the MINERvA data, but the W3 is increasingly important for NOvA and DUNE. The second half of the research is data-driven and focuses on the different detectors and systematic effects. An experimental effect, the angle acceptance, is larger than the structure function effects. However, it is a detector geometry effect and is well measured and well modeled. Other effects such as the muon energy scale are small and localized. Additionally, the research will determine if the MINERvA GENIE model correctly predicts all of the energy dependence seen in the data, and identify the remaining unmodeled energy dependence between the MINERvA data and its best simulation.

Energy Dependence Analysis of Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions in Scintillator for MINERvA

This thesis is on the intrinsic energy dependence in neutrino-nucleus interaction models, especially quasielastic scattering and 2p2h process, and the implications for understanding data from MINERvA, NOvA, and DUNE. Neutrino-nucleus interactions are modeled using fve structure functions, W1, W2, W3, W4 and W5, and each structure function contributes diferently to the energy dependence once it enters the cross-section calculations. The energy independent term in the calculations contains only W2 and the next lower order term (of the order 1/E) contains W3 also. In this thesis, we show that W2 is good enough to describe MINERvA data and energy dependence coming from the cross-section directly is small. However, W3 will be signifcant for lower energy experiments such as NOvA and DUNE (especially at and below the oscillation maximum). We have also developed a method to extract structure functions directly from MINERvA data though we find that systematic uncertainties present in the data are too big to successfully determine 1/E Term. In addition to this, we have applied muon angle cuts on MINERvA data and MC, which have their own energy dependent effects. An apparent energy dependent discrepancy comes from known shortcomings especially in the pion production model. Finally, because the energy dependence analysis has similarities to the low-$\nu$ method, we have evaluated discrepancies between the data and MC in light of diferent fux constraint techniques. The results suggest including MINERvA s low-$\nu$ method constraint is an improvement.

Phase-field modeling of rate-dependent fluid-driven fracture initiation and propagation

The rate-dependent behavior associated with deformation and fracturing of materials, such as natural rocks, poses significant challenges for modeling. In addition to the complications of the viscoelastic response, the speed of fracture propagation reflects micromechanical mechanisms in the fracture process zone(FPZ). In order to represent these complicated behaviors, a thermodynamically consistent, rate-dependent fracture model is required. Based on rigorous thermodynamic principles, we derive a rate-dependent phase-field mechanical model coupled with single-phase fluid flow in both the matrix and the fracture. The model is guaranteed to satisfy energy conservation during fracture propagation. Here, the system of equations is solved using the introduced solution procedure and a novel preconditioner that accounts for the complex fluid-structure interaction. The proposed phase-field model is tested against several benchmark problems on solid-fluid coupling, fluid-driven fracture propagation and rate-dependent viscoelastic deformation. The model serves as a strong basis for investigating rate-dependent fracturing experiments and for making predictions of material behaviors under new conditions.

Resiliency-based restoration optimization for dependent network systems against cascading failures

Due to the increasing importance of large-scale and complex network systems and the potential for massive cascading failures in these real-world systems, modeling of system resiliency and optimization of restoration strategies to mitigate system performance loss caused by diverse disruptions is of significant interest among researchers and practitioners. Although society has experienced many incidents that demonstrate the influence of cascading failures aggravated by dependencies inside network systems, existing resiliency-based restoration optimization research rarely if ever jointly considers the impact of system dependencies on cascading failures. In this paper, different restoration prioritization strategies are applied to network systems subject to cascading failures that take into account system dependencies. By conducting case studies on synthetic networks and the U.S. airport network system, the effects of restoration strategies are evaluated using a system resiliency metric and two system performance measurements. Furthermore, the influence of system dependency characteristics and the interplay between them and restoration strategies on system resiliency regarding cascading failures are also investigated. This work demonstrates the distinct effects of restoration prioritization actions against cascading failures to mitigate the performance loss in network systems with different properties. It also provides insights about restoration improvement by considering dependency impacts to effectively reduce the intensity and extent of cascading failures.
