Efficient Preparation of Dicke States
Here, we present an algorithm utilizing midcircuit measurement and feedback that prepares Dicke states with polylogarithmically many ancillae and polylogarithmic depth. Our algorithm uses only global midcircuit projective measurements and adaptively chosen global rotations. This improves over prior work that was only efficient for Dicke states of low weight or was not efficient in both depth and width. Our algorithm can also naturally be implemented in a cavity QED context using logarithmic time, zero ancillae, and atom-photon coupling scaling with the square root of the system size.
Predictive Model for Starlink Maritime Performance Using Multi-Horizon RandomForest
Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite systems have become a crucial enabler of broadband access for maritime industries, where traditional networks are unavailable. However, the high mobility of LEO constellations and constantly changing weather conditions result in unpredictable link fluctuations, limiting the ability of maritime platforms to plan bandwidth usage proactively. To the best of our knowledge, no prior work has developed a short-term predictive model for maritime LEO connectivity using real experimental field measurements. This paper proposes a data-driven forecasting model that predicts future downlink throughput using multi-horizon RandomForest regression. The model is trained using real experimental coastal measurement data incorporating recent throughput history, network-layer indicators, and environmental variables. The proposed approach reduces mean absolute error by approximately 31% compared to a persistence baseline for 15-minute horizons. It maintains a measurable improvement at 30 minutes, despite increased stochasticity. These findings confirm that proactive bandwidth awareness is feasible on maritime platforms and can effectively support operational decisions such as adaptive streaming, routing, and resource scheduling. The performance gap between forecasting horizons also highlights the need for expanded offshore datasets to improve prediction robustness under harsher maritime environments.

What to Support When You’re Compressing
Over the last nearly 20 years, lossy compression has become an essential aspect of HPC applications’ data pipelines, allowing them to overcome limitations in storage capacity and bandwidth and, in some cases, increase computational throughput and capacity. However, with the adoption of lossy compression comes the requirement to assess and control the impact lossy compression has on scientific outcomes. In this work, we take a major step forward in describing the state of practice and by characterizing workloads. We examine applications’ needs and compressors’ capabilities across 9 different supercomputing application domains. We present 24 takeaways that provide best practices for applications, operational impacts for facilities achieving compressed data, and gaps in application needs not addressed by production compressors that point towards opportunities for future compression research.
Epitaxial Growth of 2D Core‐Crown SnS 2 /SnSe 2 Heterostructure Through Interfacial Modification with Polyvinylpyrrolidone
Abstract Developing generalized strategies for controlled synthesis of 2D heterostructures remains a significant challenge because the existing approaches often suffer from poor reproducibility and scalability. In this study, a solution synthesis approach for epitaxial core‐crown heterostructures with controlled band alignment, that overcomes these challenges is reported. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) is used as a structure‐directing agent to reduce lattice mismatch between SnS 2 and SnSe 2 (10‐10) surfaces and direct epitaxial growth of SnSe 2 crown on SnS 2 seed. Additionally, PVP adsorption to the basal plane prevents van der Waals stacking and stabilizes 2D heterostructures during synthesis. Driven by interfacial thermodynamics, the formation of the core‐crown heterostructure is highly reproducible and the size of the 2D heterostructure and relative areas of the core and the crown can be precisely controlled in a two‐step process by varying synthesis times for the seed and the crown. The identified growth pathway for 2D heterostructures can be generalized to other combinations of van der Waals materials to provide a platform for synthesizing micron‐size epitaxial heterostructures with a desired electronic structure for catalysis and microelectronics.
Advanced Scientific Computing Research Exascale Requirements Review. An Office of Science review sponsored by Advanced Scientific Computing Research, September 27-29, 2016, Rockville, Maryland
The widespread use of computing in the American economy would not be possible without a thoughtful, exploratory research and development (R&D) community pushing the performance edge of operating systems, computer languages, and software libraries. These are the tools and building blocks — the hammers, chisels, bricks, and mortar — of the smartphone, the cloud, and the computing services on which we rely. Engineers and scientists need ever-more specialized computing tools to discover new material properties for manufacturing, make energy generation safer and more efficient, and provide insight into the fundamentals of the universe, for example. The research division of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Office of Advanced Scientific Computing and Research (ASCR Research) ensures that these tools and building blocks are being developed and honed to meet the extreme needs of modern science.

Atomate2: modular workflows for materials science
High-throughput density functional theory (DFT) calculations have become a vital element of computational materials science, enabling materials screening, property database generation, and training of “universal” machine learning models. While several software frameworks have emerged to support these computational efforts, new developments such as machine learned force fields have increased demands for more flexible and programmable workflow solutions. This manuscript introduces atomate2, a comprehensive evolution of our original atomate framework, designed to address existing limitations in computational materials research infrastructure. Key features include the support for multiple electronic structure packages and interoperability between them, along with generalizable workflows that can be written in an abstract form irrespective of the DFT package or machine learning force field used within them. Our hope is that atomate2's improved usability and extensibility can reduce technical barriers for high-throughput research workflows and facilitate the rapid adoption of emerging methods in computational material science.
