The facile synthesis, crystallization behavior and magnetic property of FeNiP amorphous nanoparticles

Highlights: • A facile chemistry method was proposed to synthesize amorphous FeNiP nanoparticle. • Phase transformation happened during sintering the amorphous nanoparticle. • Ni nanospheres and monoclinic (Ni,Fe){sub 3}[PO4]{sub 2} nanorods appeared at 800 °C. • Crystallization behavior is α-FeNiP → Ni + FeNi{sub 3} + Ni{sub 3}P → Ni + (Ni,Fe){sub 3}[PO{sub 4}]{sub 2}. • Sintered powders have varied magnetic properties due to phase proportion change. - Abstract: Amorphous FeNiP nanoparticles with homogeneous composition are synthesized by reduction of aqueous Fe{sup 2 +} and Ni{sup 2 +} with sodium borohydride (NaBH{sub 4}) and hypophosphite at room temperature. These amorphous nanoparticles can be crystallized by heating up to 300 °C to form FeNi{sub 3} and Ni{sub 3}P crystals. Ni phase appeared at the sintering temperature of 500 °C, and a special net structure was formed at 700 °C due to the joining and diffusion among different nanoparticles. At a higher temperature of 800 °C, phase transformation happened and only pure Ni nanospheres and monoclinic ((Ni, Fe){sub 3}[PO{sub 4}]{sub 2}) nanorods can be observed, which should be governed by the long-range diffusion in the net structure. The amorphous FeNiP nanoparticles have excellent soft magnetic property with Ms of 13.2 emu/g and Hc of 0.7 Oe. However, the sintered mixing nanoparticles show varied magnetic properties due to the phase transformation and proportion change among different phases involved in.

Microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis of zinc oxide particles starting from chloride precursor

Graphical abstract: Schematic of the mechanism for ZnO nanoparticles obtained by the calcination. Highlights: Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer Nanocrystalline ZnO particles were successfully prepared by a microwave-assisted method. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer Sponge-like morphology of ZnO change to a net-like structure after thermal treatment. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer The PL spectra exhibited a nearband-edge emission at 393 nm. -- Abstract: Zinc oxide (ZnO) was synthesized using a microwave assisted hydrothermal (MAH) process based on chloride/urea/water solution and under 800 W irradiation for 5 min. In the bath, Zn{sup 2+} ions reacted with the complex carbonate and hydroxide ions to form zinc carbonate hydroxide hydrate (Zn{sub 4}CO{sub 3}(OH){sub 6}{center_dot}H{sub 2}O), and the conversion from Zn{sub 4}CO{sub 3}(OH){sub 6}{center_dot}H{sub 2}O to ZnO was synchronously achieved by a MAH process. The as-prepared ZnO has a sponge-like morphology. However, the initial sponge-like morphology of ZnO could change to a net-like structure after thermal treatment, and compact nano-scale ZnO particles were finally obtained when the period of thermal treatment increased to 30 min. Pure ZnO nanoparticles was obtained from calcination of loose sponge-like ZnO particles at 500 Degree-Sign C. The analysis of optical properties of these ZnO nanoparticles showed that the intensity of 393 nm emission increased with the calcination temperature because the defects were reduced and the crystallinity was improved.

Multiple temperature-induced magnetization reversals in SmCr{sub 1−x}Fe{sub x}O{sub 3} system

Graphical abstract: - Highlights: • Multiple temperature-induced magnetization reversals were observed in x = 0.1. • Coexistence of normal and inverse magnetocaloric effects was observed. • A reasonable model was proposed to explain the magnetization reversals. - Abstract: The structural and magnetic properties of the SmCr{sub 1−x}Fe{sub x}O{sub 3} (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) system have been investigated. Multiple temperature-induced magnetization reversals were observed in x = 0.1. The high-temperature magnetization reversal is due to the special spin structure, in which the net canted moment of the Cr-rich regions and the net moment of the Fe–Cr ordered regions orient in opposite direction; while the low temperature one can be ascribed to the spin reorientation. The sample with x = 0.5 exhibits the highest compensation temperature. Coexistence of normal and inverse magnetocaloric effects was observed in all doped samples. Potential applications in magnetic refrigeration based constant temperature bath near room temperature (∼286 K) have been demonstrated.

Drifts, currents, and power scrape-off width in SOLPS-ITER modeling of DIII-D

The effects of drifts and associated flows and currents on the width of the parallel heat flux channel (λ q ) in the tokamak scrape-off layer (SOL) are analyzed using the SOLPS-ITER 2D fluid transport code. Motivation is supplied by Goldston’s heuristic drift (HD) model for λ q , which yields the same approximately inverse poloidal magnetic field dependence seen in multi-machine regression. The analysis, focusing on a DIII-D H-mode discharge, reveals HD-like features, including comparable density and temperature fall-off lengths in the SOL, and up-down ion pressure asymmetry that allows net cross-separatrix ion magnetic drift flux to exceed net anomalous ion flux. In experimentally relevant high-recycling cases, scans of both toroidal and poloidal magnetic field (B tor and B pol ) are conducted, showing minimal λ q dependence on either component of the field. Insensitivity to B tor is expected, and suggests that SOLPS-ITER is effectively capturing some aspects of HD physics. Absence of λ q dependence on B pol , however, is inconsistent with both the HD model and experimental results. As a result, the inconsistency is attributed to strong variation in the parallel Mach number, which violates one of the premises of the HD model.

Validation of SOLPS-ITER and EDGE2D-EIRENE simulations for H, D, and T JET ITER-like wall low-confinement mode plasmas

Both experiments and simulations with SOLPS-ITER and EDGE2D-EIRENE show that the onset of detachment for the low-field side (LFS) divertor – defined here as the line-averaged upstream density (〈n e 〉 edge ) at which the plasma flux to the LFS target (I LFS-plate ) starts to decrease with increasing 〈n e 〉 edge – is independent of the isotope mass. However, there are three major simulation-experiment discrepancies: (i) the absolute values of I LFS-plate and the electron density (n e ) in the LFS divertor at the onset of detachment are significantly lower in simulations, i.e., approximately a factor of 2 for I LFS-plate and a factor of 3-4 for n e ; (ii) the degree of detachment – defined here as the difference between I LFS-plate at the onset of detachment and at an 〈n e 〉 edge value close to the density limit – is smaller in simulations compared to experiments; and (iii) the experimentally observed larger degree of detachment for D and T plasmas compared to H plasmas cannot be clearly distinguished from the simulation results. There are strong indications that discrepancy (i) is to a large extent caused by neglecting Lyman-opacity effects in our simulations. The simulations predict a similar net volumetric recombination source for all isotopes due to the fact that molecule-activated recombination (MAR) compensates for the reduced electron–ion recombination (EIR) for H, whereas MAR is negligible for D and T. This similar net volumetric recombination source for all isotopes leads to an isotope-independent degree of detachment in simulations. An analysis of the Balmer-α and Balmer-$γ$ emission confirms the underestimate of MAR in simulations (especially for D and T) for the JET metallic wall, which was previously observed for devices with a carbon wall. The underestimate of MAR is an important cause for discrepancy (ii) and the fact that there is a stronger underestimate of MAR for D and T than for H explains discrepancy (iii). Extending the plasma grid to the vessel wall increases I LFS-plate and n e at the onset of detachment by 25%, and the EIR source increases by 80% in detached conditions. Hence, while the extended grid results are closer to the experimental observations, the previously described qualitative discrepancies still persist.

Particle control via cryopumping and its impact on the edge plasma profiles of Alcator C-Mod

At the high n e proposed for high-field fusion reactors, it is uncertain whether ionization, as opposed to plasma transport, will be most influential in determining n e at the pedestal and separatrix. A database of Alcator C-Mod discharges is analyzed to evaluate the impact of source modification via cryopumping. The database contains similarly-shaped H-modes at fixed I P = 0.8 MA and B t = 5.4 T, spanning a large range in P net and ionization. Measurements from an edge Thomson scattering system are combined with those from a midplane-viewing Ly α camera to evaluate changes to n e and T e in response to changes in ionization rates, S ion ∙ $n^{sep}_e$ and $T^{ped}_e$ are found to be most sensitive to changes to $S^{sep}_{ion}$, as opposed to $n^{ped}_e$ and $T^{sep}_e$. Dimensionless quantities, namely α MHD and v*, are found to regulate attainable pedestal values. Select discharges at different values of P net and in different pumping configurations are analyzed further using SOLPS-ITER. It is determined that changes to plasma transport coefficients are required to self-consistently model both plasma and neutral edge dynamics. Pumping is found to modify the poloidal distribution of atomic neutral density, n 0 , along the separatrix, increasing n 0 at the active X-point. Opaqueness to neutrals from high n e in the divertor is found to play a role in mediating neutral penetration lengths and hence, the poloidal distribution of neutrals along the separatrix. Pumped discharges thus require a larger particle diffusion coefficient than that inferred purely from 1D experimental profiles at the outer midplane.

Cr plasma-material-interaction in PISCES-RF: D thermal release, retention, and erosion

Pure chromium (Cr) targets were exposed to high-flux deuterium (D) plasmas in the Pisces-RF linear plasma device, and measurements of D retention, release, and erosion were subsequently performed. Post-exposure D retention was quantified using temperature-programmed desorption on Cr targets irradiated by 50 eV ions over a broad range of exposure temperatures (423–873 K) and ion fluences (3 × 10 24 – 3 × 10 26 m −2 ). The retained D inventory was observed to decrease rapidly with increased exposure temperature, from approximately ∼7 × 10 20 m −2 at ∼ 420 K, to then saturate near ∼ 10 20 m −2 for exposure temperatures above ∼550 K. Separately, at fixed exposure temperature (∼450 K), D retention was found to have only a weak dependence on increasing ion fluence. Lastly, the erosion of Cr in D plasma was investigated for ion impact energies in the range 40 ≤ E i ≤ 250 eV. Erosion was inferred using optical emission spectroscopy (OES) from the ratio of emission lines (Cr I (425.4 nm)/D I (656.1 nm)) measured close to the target. Conversion of the OES yield data to net erosion yield was made with singular ion energy target mass-loss measurements. These net erosion yield data were then further corrected to obtain gross erosion yield by accounting for a re-deposition factor, computed using a simple model. The gross erosion yield is found to be 2–4 times lower than predicted by SDTrimSP, consistent with that typically observed for light-ion sputtering under high-flux plasma conditions.

Deuterium retention characteristics during lithium powder and granule injection in EAST

Fuel retention remains a critical challenge for magnetic confinement fusion devices. As a low-Z material, lithium plays a key role in tokamak wall conditioning and impurity control. In this study, the fuel retention behaviors associated with two lithium forms—powder and granule—are systematically examined using the gas balance method. Both forms of lithium injection significantly enhance fuel retention, shifting the wall behavior from net outgassing to net absorption. For lithium powder injection, compared with the reference discharge, a suppression efficiency exceeding 40% is achieved relative to the number of injected lithium atoms. Moreover, discharges with different injection rates show a monotonic increase in retained fuel with the injected lithium quantity. In contrast, repeated granule injections exhibit a pronounced cumulative effect, with the retention ratio varying from 0.16 to 0.65 over successive discharges, indicating progressive enhancement of wall absorption and deuterium retention. These results advance the understanding of wall behavior modification induced by solid material injection and provide insights for developing effective wall-conditioning strategies using low-Z materials in ITER and future fusion reactors, while the expected high retention may ultimately exclude the use of Li wall conditioning in future fusion devices.

Photovoltaic windows cut energy use and CO 2 emissions by 40% in highly glazed buildings

Buildings account for 30% of global energy use. The architectural trend across building sectors is toward more glass despite higher energy use and carbon emissions than opaque cladding alternatives. Numerous window technologies - low-emissivity coatings, triple glazing, dynamic tinting, and the more recently developed photovoltaic glass - have emerged in the last two decades as approaches to reduce building energy. However, a comprehensive understanding of where and how these window technologies can be installed to enable optimal energy savings under different climate conditions remains limited. Here we test window technologies using thousands of macroscale building-energy simulations for different climate zones and building designs to evaluate the associated net energy use and carbon-emissions reduction potential. Novel window technologies, especially photovoltaic windows with high thermal performance, offer energy savings in all climates, ranging from 10,000-40,000 GJ per year over substandard windows for a typical office building, resulting in up to 2,000 tons of annual CO 2 emissions reduction. Highly glazed, net-zero buildings are achievable via photovoltaic windows when combined with careful geometric considerations.

The hydrogen economy can reduce costs of climate change mitigation by up to 22%

In response to the urgent need to mitigate climate change via net-zero targets, many nations are renewing their interest in clean hydrogen as a net-zero energy carrier. Although clean hydrogen can be directly used in various sectors for deep decarbonization, the relatively low energy density and high production costs have raised doubts as to whether clean hydrogen development is worthwhile. Here, we improve on the GCAM model by including a more comprehensive and detailed representation of clean hydrogen production, distribution, and demand in all sectors of the global economy and simulate 25 scenarios to explore the cost-effectiveness of integrating clean hydrogen into the global energy system. We show that, due to costly technical obstacles, clean hydrogen can only provide 3%–9% of the 2050 global final energy use. Nevertheless, clean hydrogen deployment can reduce overall energy decarbonization costs by 15%–22%, mainly via powering “hard-to-electrify” sectors that would otherwise face high decarbonization expenditures. Our work provides practical references for cost-effective clean hydrogen planning.

Responsibility for emissions and mitigation capability should guide use of carbon removal offsets

M Gidden conducted this work prior to joining PNNL and no DOE OFFICE OF SCIENCE, OTHER DOE, OTHER FEDERAL, OR PNNL OVERHEAD FUNDING is being used. Stabilizing and then drawing down global temperature requires achieving net-negative CO2 emissions globally. Carbon removal is needed to offset “hard-to-abate” sectors that remain sources of emissions at net-zero and beyond. We argue the use of scarce carbon removal resources should be guided by the principles enshrined in the Paris Agreement.

Oxytocin modulates the expression of norepinephrine transporter, β3-adrenoceptors and muscarinic M2 receptors in the hearts of socially isolated rats

Social stress produces behavioral alterations, and autonomic and cardiac dysfunction in animals. In addition to the well-known roles of oxytocin on birth and maternal bonding, recent evidence shows that this neuropeptide possesses cardio-protective properties. However less is known about its role in the regulation of the autonomic nervous system. The direct influence of oxytocin on the cardiac catecholamine synthesizing enzyme, transport beta-adrenoceptors and muscarinic receptors in animals exposed to chronic social isolation stress has not yet been studied. In this study, we examined the influence of peripheral chronic oxytocin treatment on anxiety-related behavior, the morphology and content of epinephrine and norepinephrine, mRNA and protein levels of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), norepinephrine transporter (NET) and receptors 3 (β3-AR) and muscarinic 2 (M2 MR) in the right and left cardiac atrium and ventricle of chronically socially isolated male rats. Our results show that oxytocin treatment exhibits an anxiolytic effect, decreases the heart/body weight ratio and prevents the hypertrophy of cardiomyocytes in the wall of the left ventricle of stressed rats. Epinephrine and TH protein levels were unchanged after prolonged oxytocin treatment. Peripheral oxytocin administration led to the enhancement of gene expression of β3-AR in both atria, NET protein in the left ventricle and gene expression of M2 MR in the right atrium and the left ventricle of chronically socially isolated rats. The study provides evidence that oxytocin treatment in chronically socially isolated animals enhances norepinephrine uptake and expression of cardio-inhibitory receptors in cardiac tissues, which could have a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system under the increased activity of the sympathoneural system. © 2018 Elsevier Inc.

Anomalous-hydrodynamic analysis of charge-dependent elliptic flow in heavy-ion collisions

Anomalous hydrodynamics is a low-energy effective theory that captures effects of quantum anomalies. We develop a numerical code of anomalous hydrodynamics and apply it to dynamics of heavy-ion collisions, where anomalous transports are expected to occur. This is the first attempt to perform fully non-linear numerical simulations of anomalous hydrodynamics. We discuss implications of the simulations for possible experimental observations of anomalous transport effects. From analyses of the charge-dependent elliptic flow parameters (v$±\atop{2}$) as a function of the net charge asymmetry A ± , we find that the linear dependence of Δv$±\atop{2}$ ≡ v$-\atop{2}$ - v$+\atop{2}$ on the net charge asymmetry A ± cannot be regarded as a robust signal of anomalous transports, contrary to previous studies. We, however, find that the intercept Δv$±\atop{2}$ (A ± = 0) is sensitive to anomalous transport effects.

Probing the topological charge in QCD matter via multiplicity up–down asymmetry

Relativistic heavy ion collisions provide the possibility to study the topological charge in QCD matter through the event-by-event fluctuating net axial charge or nonequal numbers of left- and right-handed quarks they generate in the produced quark–gluon plasma. Based on the chiral kinetic approach for nearly massless quarks and antiquarks in the strong vorticity field produced along the normal direction of the reaction plane of non-central heavy ion collisions, we show that a unique signal for the topological charge in QCD matter can be identified from the asymmetric distribution of particles with momenta pointing to the upper and lower hemispheres of the reaction plane as a result of the fluctuating net axial charge.

Cyanate groups in higher oxidation state metal cluster chemistry: Mixed-valence (II/III) Mn 16 and Mn 18 clusters

Here, the employment of cyanato (OCN - ) group in high oxidation state manganese cluster chemistry, in conjunction with carboxylate ions and the organic chelating/bridging ligand 2-(hydroxymethyl)pyridine (hmpH), is reported. The syntheses, crystal structures, and magnetochemical characterization are described for [Mn 16 O 8 (OR) 4 (OCN) 4 (O 2 CMe) 12 (hmp) 6 (ROH) 2 ] (R = Me (1), Et (2)) and [Mn 18 O 14 (O 2 CR) 18 (hmp) 4 (hmpH) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ] (R = Me (3), Et (4)). The 2:1:1:1 reactions of Mn(O 2 CMe) 2 ·4H 2 O, hmpH, NaOCN and NEt 3 in solvent MeOH or EtOH afford the isostructural complexes [Mn 16 O 8 (OR) 4 (OCN) 4 (O 2 CMe) 12 (hmp) 6 (ROH) 2 ] (R = Me (1), Et (2)). The [Mn 16 (μ 4 -O) 4 (μ 3 -O) 4 (μ-OMe) 4 (μ 3 -OR) 6 (μ-OR) 6 ] 10+ core of representative complex 1 comprises a Mn II 4 Mn III 4 double-cubane subunit attached on either side to two symmetry-related Mn II Mn III 3 defective dicubanes. A similar reaction of Mn(O 2 CR) 2 ·4H 2 O, hmpH, NaOCN and NEt 3 , but in solvent MeCN, led instead to the formation of [Mn 18 O 14 (O 2 CR) 18 (hmp) 4 (hmpH) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ] (R = Me (3), Et (4)). Compounds 3 and 4 are very similar to each other and can be described as a central [Mn III 4 (μ-O) 6 ] rodlike subunit attached on either side to two symmetry-related [Mn 7 O 9 ] subunits. Variable-temperature, solid-state dc and ac magnetic susceptibility studies revealed the presence of predominant antiferromagnetic exchange interactions in all compounds, and possible S = 2 or 1 (for 1 and 2) and S = 0 (for 3 and 4) ground state spin values. The combined results demonstrate the ability of cyanato groups to facilitate the formation of new polynuclear Mn II/III complexes with structures different than these obtained from the use of the related azides.

Benchmarking the accuracy of coverage-dependent models: adsorption and desorption of benzene on Pt (111) and Pt 3 Sn (111) from first principles

Bimetallic catalysts have demonstrated properties favorable for upgrading biofuel through catalytic hydrodeoxygenation. However, the design and optimization of such bimetallic catalysts requires the ability to construct accurate, predictive models of these systems. To generate a model that predicts the kinetic behavior of benzene adsorbed on Pt (111) and a Pt 3 Sn (111) surface alloy (Pt 3 Sn (111)), the adsorption of benzene was studied for a wide range of benzene coverages on both surfaces using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The adsorption energy of benzene was found to correlate linearly with benzene coverage on Pt (111) and Pt 3 Sn (111); both surfaces exhibited net repulsive lateral interactions. Through an analysis of the d-band properties of the metal surface, it was determined that the coverage dependence is a consequence of the electronic interactions between benzene and the surface. The linear coverage dependence of the adsorption energy allowed us to quantify the influence of the lateral interactions on the heat of adsorption and temperature programmed desorption (TPD) spectra using a mean-field model. A comparison of our simulated TPD to experiment showed that this mean-field model adequately reproduces the desorption behavior of benzene on Pt (111) and Pt 3 Sn (111). In particular, the TPD correctly exhibits a broadening desorption peak as the initial coverage of benzene increases on Pt (111) as well as and a low temperature desorption peak on Pt 3 Sn (111). Furthermore, due to the sensitivity of the TPD peak temperature to the desorption energy, precise alignment of experimental and theoretical TPD spectra demands an accurate calculation of the adsorption energy. Therefore, an analysis of the effect of the exchange-correlation functional on TPD modeling is presented. Through this work, we show the necessity of incorporating lateral interactions into theoretical models in order to correctly predict experimental behavior.

Techno-economic analysis of the water, energy, and greenhouse gas emissions impacts from the adoption of water efficiency practices in the U.S. manufacturing sector

Water is a critical resource for all of manufacturing. As such, mitigating risks to the supply of water to manufacturing plants facilitates maintaining a vital manufacturing sector. Reductions in water use through water efficiency is one method for mitigating risk, however little is known about its potential in the United States (U.S.) manufacturing sector. Herein, we address this gap and calculate the water reduction potential in U.S. manufacturing from commercially available water efficiency opportunities specific to the manufacturing sector. A list of water efficiency measures specific to the manufacturing sector is compiled and applied to estimates of U.S. manufacturing water withdrawals. The energy and carbon dioxide equivalent (CO 2 e) emission impacts from implementation of these measures are also quantified to better inform the resource, environmental, and economic trade-offs from implementation of these measures. We find that the water savings potential from the evaluated measures is up to 60 percent of U.S. manufacturing water withdrawal for certain subsectors, with the energy and emissions impact dependent on the measure. Further, we calculate the levelized cost of conserved water for several water efficiency measures (-$\$4,000$ to $\$85$/thousand m 3 , where negative values indicate net cost savings and positive values indicate net cost expenditures) and compare them to the levelized cost of alternative water sources ($\$600$ to $\$3,400$/thousand m 3 ). The results show significant opportunities for water and energy use reductions at levelized costs at least one order of magnitude lower than alternative water supplies, with some being revenue-generating.
