Activation of CO 2 by Actinide Cations (Th + , U + , Pu + , and Am + ) as Studied by Guided Ion Beam and Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry

Reactions of CO 2 with Th+ have been studied using guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometry (GIBMS) and with An + (An + = Th + , U + , Pu + , and Am + ) using triple quadrupole inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (QQQ-ICP-MS). Additionally, the reactions ThO + + CO and ThO + + CO 2 were examined using GIBMS. Modeling the kinetic energy dependent GIBMS data allowed determination of bond dissociation energies (BDEs) for D o (Th + -O) and D o (OTh + -O) that are in reasonable agreement with previous GIBMS measurements. The QQQ-ICP-MS reactions were studied at higher pressures where multiple collisions between An + and the neutral CO 2 occur. As a consequence, both AnO + and AnO 2 + products were observed for all An + except Am + , where only AmO + was observed. Here, the relative abundances of the observed monoxides compared to the dioxides are consistent with previous reports of the AnO n + (n = 1, 2) BDEs. Comparison of the periodic trends of the group 4 transition metal, lanthanide (Ln), and actinide atomic cations in reactions with CO 2 (a formally spin-forbidden reaction for most M + ground states), and O 2 (a spin unrestricted reaction) indicate that spin conservation plays a minor role, if any, for the heavier An + metals. Further correlation of Ln + and An + + CO 2 reaction efficiencies with the promotion energy (E p ) to the first electronic state with two valence d-electrons (E p (5d 2 ) for Ln + and E p (6d 2 ) for An + ) indicates that the primary limitation in the activation of CO 2 is the energetic cost to promote from the electronic ground state of the atomic metal ion to a reactive state.

How the Hydrophobic Interface between a Perfluorosulfonic Acid Polymer and Water Vapor Controls Membrane Hydration

Stable hydration in perfluorinated polyelectrolyte membranes such as Nafion is essential to maintain good ion conductivity and manage permeation, especially in vapor-fed devices where water content depends on relative humidity in a gas stream. Extensive studies in the literature have shown that Nafion hydration in water vapor is controlled by its interfacial transport resistance. Nafion forms a fluorine-rich layer at the polymer-gas interface, and it has been proposed that this layer blocks water transport due to its hydrophobicity. To develop a molecular-level description of the physics underlying transport resistance in this system, we have performed a computational reaction-diffusion kinetics study of water evaporation from Nafion. Two distinct models are examined, one mimicking the blocking function proposed in the literature and the other assuming that there is no blocking, treating instead water evaporation as a dynamic balance between uptake from the gas and desorption from the polymer surface. Simulation results are compared to time-dependent infrared data over a range of 100-0% relative humidity from the literature. Only the dynamic model successfully reproduces experimental observations. This indicates that the physical nature of interfacial transport resistance is not slow diffusion across an interfacial layer; rather, it is due to the competition between dehydration and rehydration. The simulation data provide details on the accompanying water distributions throughout the membrane and on interfacial kinetics, showing that they are characterized by strong fluctuations.

Characterizing Defects Inside Hexagonal Boron Nitride Using Random Telegraph Signals in van der Waals 2D Transistors

Single-crystal hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is used extensively in many two-dimensional electronic and quantum devices, where defects significantly impact performance. Therefore, characterizing and engineering hBN defects are crucial for advancing these technologies. Here, we examine the capture and emission dynamics of defects in hBN by utilizing low-frequency noise (LFN) spectroscopy in hBN-encapsulated and graphene-contacted MoS 2 field-effect transistors (FETs). The low disorder of this heterostructure allows the detection of random telegraph signals (RTS) in large device dimensions of 100 μm 2 at cryogenic temperatures. Analysis of gate bias- and temperature-dependent LFN data indicate that RTS originates from a single trap species within hBN. By performing multi-space density functional theory (MS-DFT) calculations on a gated defective hBN/MoS 2 heterostructure model, we assign substitutional carbon atoms in boron sites as the atomistic origin of RTS. This study demonstrates the utility of LFN spectroscopy combined with MS-DFT analysis on a low-disorder all-vdW FET as a powerful means for characterizing the atomistic defects in single-crystal hBN.

π-Extended Ligands in Two-Coordinate Coinage Metal Complexes

Two-coordinate carbene-M I -amide (cMa, M I = Cu, Ag, Au) complexes have emerged as highly efficient luminescent materials for use in a variety of photonic applications, due to their extremely fast radiative rates via thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) from an interligand charge transfer (ICT) process. A series of cMa derivatives were prepared to examine the variables which affect the radiative rate with the goal of understanding the parameters that control the radiative TADF process in these materials. We find that blue emissive complexes with high photoluminescence efficiency (Φ PL > 0.95) and fast radiative rates (k r = 4 x 10 6 s -1 ) can be achieved by selectively extending the π-system of the carbene and amide ligands. Of note is the role played by increasing the separation between the hole and electron in the ICT excited state. Analysis of temperature dependent luminescence data along with theoretical calculations indicate that the hole-electron separation alters the energy gap between the lowest energy singlet and triplet states (ΔE ST ) while keeping the radiative rate for the singlet state unchanged. As a result, this interpretation provides guidelines for the design of new cMa derivatives with even faster radiative rates as well as those with slower radiative rates and thus extended excited state lifetimes.

Luminescent Bimetallic Two-Coordinate Gold(I) Complexes Utilizing Janus Carbenes

A series of bimetallic carbene-metal-amide (cMa) complexes have been prepared with bridging biscarbene ligands to serve as a model for the design of luminescent materials with large oscillator strengths and small energy differences between the singlet and triplet states (ΔE ST ). The complexes have a general structure (R 2 N)Au(:carbene—carbene:)Au(NR 2 ). The bimetallic complexes show solvation-dependent absorption and emission that is analyzed in detail. It is found that the molar absorptivity of the bimetallic complexes is correlated with the energy barrier to rotation of the metal–ligand bond. The bimetallic cMa complexes also exhibit short emission lifetimes (τ = 200–300 ns) with high photoluminescence efficiencies (Φ PL > 95%). The radiative rates of bimetallic cMa complexes are 3–4 times faster than that of the corresponding monometallic complexes. Analysis of temperature-dependent luminescence data indicates that the lifetime for the singlet state (τS 1 ) of bimetallic cMa complexes is near 12 ns with a ΔE ST of 40–50 meV. Here the presented compounds provide a general design for cMa complexes to achieve small values for ΔE ST while retaining high radiative rates. Solution-processed organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) made using two of the complexes as luminescent dopants show high efficiency and low roll-off at high luminance.

Hydrological Perspectives on Integrated, Coordinated, Open, Networked (ICON) Science

Hydrologic sciences depend on data monitoring, analyses, and simulations of hydrologic processes to ensure safe, sufficient, and equal water distribution. These hydrologic data come from but are not limited to primary (lab, plot, and field experiments) and secondary sources (remote sensing, UAVs, hydrologic models) that typically follow FAIR Principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable: (go-fair.org)). Easy availability of FAIR data has become possible because the hydrology-oriented organizations have pushed the community to increase coordination of the protocols for generating data and sharing model platforms. In addition, networking at all levels has emerged with an invigorated effort to activate community science efforts that complement conventional data collection methods. However, it has become difficult to decipher various complex hydrologic processes with increasing data. Machine learning, a branch of artificial intelligence, provide more accurate and faster alternatives to better understand different hydrological processes. The Integrated, Coordinated, Open, Networked (ICON) framework provides a pathway for water users to include and respect diversity, equity, and inclusivity. In addition, ICONs support the integration of peoples with historically marginalized identities into this professional discipline of water sciences. This article comprises three independent commentaries about the state of ICON principles in hydrology and discusses the opportunities and challenges of adopting them.

Ferroelectric phase-transition frustration near a tricritical composition point

Phase transition describes a mutational behavior of matter states at a critical transition temperature or external field. Despite the phase-transition orders are well sorted by classic thermodynamic theory, ambiguous situations interposed between the first- and second-order transitions were exposed one after another. Here, we report discovery of phase-transition frustration near a tricritical composition point in ferroelectric Pb(Zr 1-x Ti x )O 3 . Our multi-scale transmission electron microscopy characterization reveals a number of geometrically frustrated microstructure features such as self-assembled hierarchical domain structure, degeneracy of mesoscale domain tetragonality and decoupled polarization-strain relationship. Associated with deviation from the classic mean-field theory, dielectric critical exponent anomalies and temperature dependent birefringence data unveil that the frustrated transition order stems from intricate competition of short-range polar orders and their decoupling to long-range lattice deformation. With supports from effective Hamiltonian Monte Carlo simulations, our findings point out a potentially universal mechanism to comprehend the abnormal critical phenomena occurring in phase-transition materials.

Alternative stable states of the forest mycobiome are maintained through positive feedbacks

Most trees on Earth form a symbiosis with either arbuscular mycorrhizal or ectomycorrhizal fungi. By forming common mycorrhizal networks, actively modifying the soil environment and other ecological mechanisms, these contrasting symbioses may generate positive feedbacks that favour their own mycorrhizal strategy (that is, the con-mycorrhizal strategy) at the expense of the alternative strategy. Positive con-mycorrhizal feedbacks set the stage for alternative stable states of forests and their fungi, where the presence of different forest mycorrhizal strategies is determined not only by external environmental conditions but also mycorrhiza-mediated feedbacks embedded within the forest ecosystem. Here, in this work, we test this hypothesis using thousands of US forest inventory sites to show that arbuscular and ectomycorrhizal tree recruitment and survival exhibit positive con-mycorrhizal density dependence. Data-driven simulations show that these positive feedbacks are sufficient in magnitude to generate and maintain alternative stable states of the forest mycobiome. Given the links between forest mycorrhizal strategy and carbon sequestration potential, the presence of mycorrhizal-mediated alternative stable states affects how we forecast forest composition, carbon sequestration and terrestrial climate feedbacks.

Optimal reference genes for RNA tissue analysis in small animal models of hemorrhagic fever viruses

Abstract Reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays are frequently used to evaluate gene expression in animal model studies. Data analyses depend on normalization using a suitable reference gene (RG) to minimize effects of variation due to sample collection, sample processing, or experimental set-up. Here, we investigated the suitability of nine potential RGs in laboratory animals commonly used to study viral hemorrhagic fever infection. Using tissues (liver, spleen, gonad [ovary or testis], kidney, heart, lung, eye, brain, and blood) collected from naïve animals and those infected with Crimean–Congo hemorrhagic fever (mice), Nipah (hamsters), or Lassa (guinea pigs) viruses, optimal species-specific RGs were identified based on five web-based algorithms to assess RG stability. Notably, the Ppia RG demonstrated stability across all rodent tissues tested. Optimal RG pairs that include Ppia were determined for each rodent species ( Ppia and Gusb for mice; Ppia and Hrpt for hamsters; and Ppia and Gapdh for guinea pigs). These RG pair assays were multiplexed with viral targets to improve assay turnaround time and economize sample usage. Finally, a pan-rodent Ppia assay capable of detecting Ppia across multiple rodent species was developed and successfully used in ecological investigations of field-caught rodents, further supporting its pan-species utility.

NaCo 2 (SeO 3 ) 2 (OH): competing magnetic ground states of a new sawtooth structure with 3d 7 Co 2+ ions

While certain magnetic sublattices have long been known theoretically to give rise to emergent physics via competing magnetic interactions and quantum effects, finding such configurations in real materials is often deeply challenging. Here we report the synthesis and characterization of a new such material, NaCo 2 (SeO 3 ) 2 (OH) which crystallizes with a highly frustrated sublattice of sawtooth Co 2+ chains. Single crystals of NaCo 2 (SeO 3 ) 2 (OH) were synthesized using a low-temperature hydrothermal method. X-ray single crystal structure analysis reveals that the material crystallizes in orthorhombic space group of Pnma (no. 62). Its crystal structure exhibits one-dimensional chains of corner-sharing isosceles triangles that are made of two crystallographically distinct 3d 7 Co 2+ sites (Co(1) and Co(2)). The chains run along the b-axis and are interconnected via [SeO 3 ] groups to form a three-dimensional structure mediating super-exchange interactions. The temperature dependent magnetization data show a ferromagnetic-like (FM) transition at 11 K (T 1 ) followed by an antiferromagnetic (AFM) transition at about 6 K (T 2 ). Neutron-powder diffraction measurements reveal that at T 1 = 11 K only the Co(2) site orders magnetically, forming ferromagnetic zigzag chains along the b-axis. Below T 2 = 6 K, both Co(1) and Co(2) sites order in a nearly orthogonal configuration, with Co(1) moments lying inside the plane of the sawtooth chain while Co(2) moments cant out of the plane. The canting of the magnetic moments leads to a net ferromagnetic component along b-axis, parallel to the chain direction. The ordered moments are fully compensated in the ac-plane. Inelastic neutron scattering measurements reveal crystal field excitations that are consistent with the presence of a spin–orbital entangled pseudo-spin state J eff = 1/2 for the Co 2+ ions. Low-energy spin-wave excitations are observed below the second magnetic transition. The analysis of powder excitation spectrum suggests complex exchange interactions that go beyond a Heisenberg Hamiltonian model with nearest neighbor couplings. Our results demonstrate the richness of the magnetic properties of sawtooth-type structures and encourage the study of similar structures with different oxyanion groups.

Calibration of a versatile multi-energy soft x-ray diagnostic for WEST long pulse plasmas

A compact multi-energy soft x-ray diagnostic is being installed on the W Environment in Steady-state Tokamak (WEST), which was designed and built to test ITER-like tungsten plasma facing components in a long pulse (~1000 s) scenario. The diagnostic consists of a pinhole camera fielded with the PILATUS3 photon-counting Si-based detector (≲100 kpixel). The detector has sensitivity in the range 1.6–30 keV and enables energy discrimination, providing a higher energy resolution than conventional systems with metal foils and diodes with adequate space and time resolution (≲1 cm and 2 ms). The lower-absorption cut-off energy is set independently on each one of the ~100 kpixels, providing a unique opportunity to measure simultaneously the plasma emissivity in multiple energy ranges and deduce a variety of plasma parameters (e.g., T e , n Z , and ΔZ eff ). The energy dependence of each pixel is calibrated here over the range 3–22 keV. The detector is exposed to a variety of monochromatic sources—fluorescence emission from metallic targets—and for each pixel, the lower energy threshold is scanned to calibrate the energy dependence. The data are fit to a responsivity curve (“S-curve”) that determines the mapping between the possible detector settings and the energy response for each pixel. Here, the calibration is performed for three energy ranges: low (2.3–6 keV), medium (4.5–13.5 keV), and high (5.4–21 keV). We determine the achievable energy resolutions for the low, medium, and high energy ranges as 330 eV, 640 eV, and 950 eV, respectively. The main limitation for the energy resolution is found to be the finite width of the S-curve.

Effects of oxidation and impurities in lithium surfaces on the emitting wall plasma sheath

The use of lithium as a surface coating in fusion devices improves the plasma performance, but the change in the wall properties affects the secondary electron emission properties of the material. Lithium oxidizes easily, which drives the emission yield well above unity. We present here simulations demonstrating the change in the sheath structure from monotonic to the nonmonotonic space-charge limited sheath using an energy-dependent data-driven emission model, which self-consistently captures both secondary emission and backscattering populations. Increased secondary electron emission from the material has ramifications for the degradation and erosion of the wall. The results show that the oxidation leads to an increased electron energy flux into the wall and a reduced ion energy flux. The net transfer of energy to the surface is significantly greater for the oxidized case than for the pure lithium case. High backscattering rates of low-energy particles lead to a high re-emission rate at the wall.

Estimation of plasma properties using an extended Kalman filter with plasma global models

A physically-constrained extended Kalman filter (EKF) is applied to various zero-dimensional global models for the estimation of plasma properties using time-dependent experimental data such as the plasma density or ion flux. The capability of the EKF is demonstrated to estimate unknown system states simultaneously, such as reaction rate coefficients and the absorbed electron input power, which can be difficult, if not impossible, to measure experimentally. Global models accounting for pure argon reactions and argon-oxygen reactions are used in this work to demonstrate the ability of the filter to estimate dynamic and complex systems. Furthermore, the results obtained from the EKF plasma global model illustrate that model-data fusion techniques can be used to estimate plasma properties and processes for time-varying systems, such as pulsed discharges.

Constraining ΛCDM cosmological parameters with Einstein Telescope mock data

ABSTRACT We investigate the capability of Einstein Telescope to constrain the cosmological parameters of the non-flat ΛCDM cosmological model. Two types of mock data sets are considered depending on whether or not a short gamma-ray burst is detected, and associated with the gravitational wave emitted by binary neutron stars merger, using the THESEUS satellite. Depending on the mock data set, two statistical estimators are applied: one assumes that the redshift is known, while the other marginalizes over it assuming a specific redshift prior distribution. We demonstrate that (i) using mock catalogues collecting gravitational wave signals emitted by binary neutron stars systems to which a short gamma-ray burst has been associated, Einstein Telescope may achieve an accuracy on the cosmological parameters of $\sigma _{H_0}\approx 0.40$ km s−1 Mpc−1, $\sigma _{\Omega _{k,0}}\approx 0.09$, and $\sigma _{\Omega _{\Lambda ,0}}\approx 0.07$; while (ii) using mock catalogues collecting all gravitational wave signals emitted by binary neutron stars systems for which an electromagnetic counterpart has not been detected, Einstein Telescope may achieve an accuracy on the cosmological parameters of $\sigma _{H_0}\approx 0.04$ km s−1 Mpc−1, $\sigma _{\Omega _{k,0}}\approx 0.01$, and $\sigma _{\Omega _{\Lambda ,0}}\approx 0.01$, once the redshift probability distribution of GW events is known from from population synthesis simulations and/or the measure of the tidal deformability parameter. These results show an improvement of a factor 2–75 with respect to earlier results using complementary data sets.

Mapping the three-dimensional fermiology of the triangular lattice magnet EuAg 4 Sb 2

In this paper, we report the temperature-field phase diagram as well as present a comprehensive study of the electronic structure and three-dimensional fermiology of the triangular-lattice magnet EuAg 4 ⁢Sb 2 , utilizing quantum oscillation measurements, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, and first-principles calculations. The complex magnetic phase diagram of EuAg 4 ⁢Sb 2 highlights many transitions through nontrivial AFM states. Shubnikov-de Haas and de Haas-van Alphen oscillations were observed in the polarized ferromagnetic state of EuAg 4 ⁢Sb 2 , revealing three pairs of distinct spin-split frequency branches with small effective masses. A comparison of the angle-dependent oscillation data with first-principles calculations in the ferromagnetic state and angle-resolved photoemission spectra shows good agreement, identifying tubular hole pockets and hourglass-shaped hole pockets at the Brillouin zone center, as well as diamond-shaped electron pockets at the zone boundary. As the temperature increases, the frequency branches of the tiny hourglass pockets evolve into a more cylindrical shape, while the larger pockets remain unchanged. This highlights that variations in exchange splitting, driven by changes in the magnetic moment, primarily impact the small Fermi pockets without significantly altering the overall band structure. As a result, this is consistent with first-principles calculations, which show minimal changes near the Fermi level across ferromagnetic and simple antiferromagnetic states or under varying on-site Coulomb repulsion.

Superconducting dome and structural changes in LaRu 3 ⁢Si 2 under pressure

LaRu 3 ⁢Si 2 is of current research interest as a kagome metal with a superconducting transition temperature, 𝑇 𝑐 ∼7 K, and higher-temperature charge density wave orders. Here we report on electrical transport and x-ray diffraction measurements on LaRu 3 ⁢Si 2 under pressure up to 65 GPa and 35 GPa, respectively. The superconducting transition temperature 𝑇 𝑐 first gets slightly enhanced and reaches a maximum ∼8.7 K at ∼8.5 GPa. With further applied pressure, 𝑇 𝑐 is initially gradually suppressed, then more rapidly suppressed, followed by gradual suppression, revealing a superconducting dome. Two possible pressure-induced structural phase transitions are also observed at room temperature, from the original hexagonal phase to another hexagonal structure above ∼11.5 GPa, and further to a structure with lower symmetry above ∼23.5 GPa. These transition pressures roughly correlate with features found in our pressure-dependent transport data.

Magnetic glassiness in noncentrosymmetric Sm 7 Pd 3 : Interplay of magnetic frustration, long-range order, and frozen domains

Here, we present a comprehensive investigation of the intricate spin dynamics in the noncentrosymmetric compound Sm 7 ⁢Pd 3 , revealing the coexistence of spin-glass, domain-glass, and ferromagnetic (FM) behaviors. Magnetic field-dependent measurements indicate large coercivity, suggesting ferromagnetic domain formation below the Curie temperature (𝑇 C ≈ 173 K), while temperature-dependent magnetization data point to antiferromagnetic (AFM) coupling, highlighting the competition between FM and AFM interactions. Detailed ac susceptibility, isothermal remanent magnetization, and aging effect measurements demonstrate the presence of two distinct types of glassiness in the sample, and their possible origins are discussed extensively. Magnetization measurements reveal the mixing of the 𝐽 = 5/2 ground state of Sm 3+ with the excited 𝐽 = 7/2 multiplet, lying 965 K above. The specific heat data show further crystalline electric field splitting of the 𝐽 = 5/2 state into a ground-state doublet and a fourfold-degenerate excited state.

Above room temperature multiferroic and magnetoelectric properties of (1‐Φ) PZTFT‐Φ CZFMO particulate composites

Magnetoelectric (ME) composites of suitable ferroelectric and magnetic materials can display elevated magnetic and ferroelectric operational temperatures, along with substantial ME coupling, compared to conventional single-phase multiferroics. Herein, we describe the synthesis of (1-Φ) PZTFT-Φ CZFMO, Φ = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 (PZTFT: [0.6(PbZr 0.53 Ti 0.47 O 3 )–0.4(PbFe 0.5 Ta 0.5 )O 3 ] CZFMO: Co 0.6 Zn 0.4 Fe 1.7 Mn 0.3 O 4 )] particulate (0–3) composites and report on the magnetic as well as ferroelectric phase transitions and magnetoelectric coupling. The phase formation and the induced strain in these composites are investigated via Raman spectroscopy. A large bifurcation of the zero-field cooled-field cooled magnetization curves confirms the highly anisotropic behavior of the composites. These curves also identify spin glass behavior in the CZFMO phase at ≈230 K. The magnetic phase transition of the composite (Φ = 0.2) is reported to be ≈532 (± 10) K. The temperature dependent dielectric data displays the ferroelectric phase transitions from the PZTFT phase and the broad relaxation peak from the CZFMO phase. The quadratic relationship between the magneto-capacitance and the magnetization confirms the existence of biquadratic magnetoelectric coupling in the systems. The collective results are consistent with the presence of a direct magneto-electric effect in the composites, i.e., by the application of magnetic field, the magnetic phase is strained, and this induced strain is responsible for changes of ferroelectric order parameter in the piezoelectric phase. As a result, this attribute makes the current composite structure a promising candidate for multiferroic data storage and processing technologies.
