Exploring the MeV sky with a combined coded mask and Compton telescope: the Galactic Explorer with a Coded aperture mask Compton telescope (GECCO)

The sky at MeV energies is currently poorly explored. Here we present an innovative mission concept that builds upon the heritage of past and current missions improving the sensitivity and, very importantly, the angular resolution. This consists in combining a Compton telescope and a coded-mask telescope. We delineate the motivation for such a concept and we define the scientific goals for such a mission. The Galactic Explorer with a Coded Aperture Mask Compton Telescope (GECCO) is a novel concept for a next-generation telescope covering hard X-ray and soft gamma-ray energies. The potential and importance of this approach that bridges the observational gap in the MeV energy range are presented. With the unprecedented angular resolution of the coded mask telescope combined with the sensitive Compton telescope, a mission such as GECCO can disentangle the discrete sources from the truly diffuse emission. Individual Galactic and extragalactic sources are detected. This also allows to understand the gamma-ray Galactic center excess and the Fermi Bubbles, and to trace the low-energy cosmic rays, and their propagation in the Galaxy. Nuclear and annihilation lines are spatially and spectrally resolved from the continuum emission and from sources, addressing the role of low-energy cosmic rays in star formation and galaxy evolution, the origin of the 511 keV positron line, fundamental physics, and the chemical enrichment in the Galaxy. Such an instrument also detects explosive transient gamma-ray sources, which, in turn, enables identifying and studying the astrophysical objects that produce gravitational waves and neutrinos in a multi-messenger context. By looking at a poorly explored energy band it also allows discoveries of new astrophysical phenomena.

Accurate estimation of angular power spectra for maps with correlated masks

A common procedure when analyzing maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) or other cosmological signals is the need to remove ("mask") regions of the maps that are heavily contaminated, e.g., by non-cosmological foreground emission. After applying such a mask, one must account for its effect when inferring statistical properties of interest, such as the angular power spectrum of the field in the original map. A widely used approach to correct for such mask-induced effects was presented by Hivon et al. (2002), now widely known as the "MASTER" formalism. However, it is often the case that the map and mask are correlated in some way, such as point source masks used in CMB analyses, which have nonzero correlation with CMB secondary anisotropy fields and other mm-wave sky signals. In such situations, the MASTER approach gives biased results, as it assumes that the unmasked map and mask have zero correlation. While such effects have been discussed before with regard to specific physical models, here we derive a completely general formalism for any case where the map and mask are correlated. We show that our result ("reMASTERed") reconstructs ensemble-averaged angular power spectra to effectively exact precision, with significant improvements over traditional estimators for cases where the map and mask are correlated. An important consequence of our result is that for maps with correlated masks, it is no longer possible to invert a simple equation to obtain the true power spectrum from the observed (masked) power spectrum. Instead, our result necessitates the use of forward modeling from theory space into the observable domain of the masked power spectrum. We publicly release our software implementation of these results.

Mask-side Hyper-NA EUV imaging on the SHARP microscope

Hyper-NA, the prospective successor to high-numerical aperture (NA) extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) could be inserted soon after 2030. Hyper-NA poses a number of challenges, including reduced depth of focus, amplified mask three-dimensional effects, and increased mask-side angular range. A Hyper-NA capable extreme ultraviolet (EUV) mask-imaging tool can address these challenges and accelerate research and development toward Hyper-NA. The Sharp High-Numerical Aperture Actinic Reticle Review Project (SHARP) EUV mask microscope is supporting mask-side high-NA imaging since 2015. Implementing mask-side Hyper-NA imaging in 2024 enables research and development toward the corresponding nodes of EUVL. Hyper-NA zoneplates at 0.75 4x/8x NA with a 6.7-deg chief ray angle and 0.85 4x/8x NA with a 7.4-deg chief ray angle are added to the SHARP microscope. Imaging at mask-side Hyper-NA is demonstrated. Imaging of 5-nm half-pitch (wafer scale) horizontal lines and spaces is demonstrated using dipole illumination. Imaging of 5-nm half-pitch (wafer scale) vertical lines and spaces is demonstrated using frequency-doubled imaging of 40-nm hp (mask scale) lines and spaces. Normalized image log slope (NILS) and modulation of Hyper-NA image data match closely to simulations for horizontal lines and spaces. A reduction in NILS of 0.3 or less is observed for vertical lines and spaces in the two-beam imaging regime. Through-focus image data are discussed, comparing different dipole sources and mask-side NAs. Mask-side Hyper-NA photomask imaging has been implemented and demonstrated on the SHARP microscope and is now available to users of the instrument.

Universal parameters of bulk-solvent masks

The bulk solvent is a major component of biomacromolecular crystals that contributes significantly to the observed diffraction intensities. Accurate modelling of the bulk solvent has been recognized as important for many crystallographic calculations. Owing to its simplicity and modelling power, the flat (mask-based) bulk-solvent model is used by most modern crystallographic software packages to account for disordered solvent. In this model, the bulk-solvent contribution is defined by a binary mask and a scale (scattering) function. The mask is calculated on a regular grid using the atomic model coordinates and their chemical types. The grid step and two radii, solvent and shrinkage, are the three parameters that govern the mask calculation. They are highly correlated and their choice is a compromise between the computer time needed to calculate the mask and the accuracy of the mask. It is demonstrated here that this choice can be optimized using a unique value of 0.6 Å for the grid step irrespective of the data resolution, and the radii values adjusted correspondingly. The improved values were tested on a large sample of Protein Data Bank entries derived from X-ray diffraction data and are now used in the computational crystallography toolbox ( CCTBX ) and in Phenix as the default choice.

Benchtop assessment of sealing efficacy and breathability of additively manufactured (AM) face masks

The onset of the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) led to a shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE), medical devices, and other medical supplies causing many stakeholders and the general public alike to turn to additive manufacturing (AM) as a stopgap when normally accessible devices were not available. However, without a method to test these AM constructs, there continued to be a disconnect between AM suppliers and the community’s needs. The objective of this study was to characterize the pressure drop and leakage of four different publicly available AM face mask models with two filter material combinations, as well as to investigate the impact of frame modification techniques including the use of foam strips and hot-water face forming to improve fit when the masks are donned on manikin head forms. AM face mask frame designs were downloaded from public repositories during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. AM face masks were fabricated and tested on manikin head forms within a custom chamber containing dry aerosolized NaCl. Pressure drops, particle penetration, and leakage were evaluated for various flow rates and NaCl concentrations. Results indicated that filter material combination and frame modification played a major role in the overall performance of the AM face masks studied. Filter material combinations showed improved performance when high filtration fabric was used, and the cross-sectional area of the fabric was increased. AM frame modifications appeared to improve AM face mask leakage performance by as much as 69.6%.

Using High-Resolution NSRDB Data to Evaluate Cloud Mask Forecast from WRF-Solar EPS

Validating spatiotemporal distributions of cloud forecasts using numerical weather prediction (NWP) models is difficult as this requires high-quality cloud-property at significantly high spatial and temporal resolution over extended periods of time. Observations of cloud properties, such as cloud mask, cloud optical thickness, and cloud type, are vital for assessing the capability of NWP models to forecast various types of clouds. Using the National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB), this research evaluates ensemble cloud-mask predictions from the WRF-Solar ensemble prediction system (WRF-Solar EPS). From the WRF-Solar EPS, day-ahead solar forecasts for the contiguous United States (CONUS) for 2018 are simulated. Given the NSRDB data is accessible at a resolution of 2 km, we can calculate the cloud fraction across the 9-km grid of WRF-Solar EPS. This allows us to spatially assess the cloud-mask forecasts using two methods against the high-resolution NSRDB: (a) considering all 2-km NSRDB clouds in the forecast domain (EMAll), and (b) using a minimum cloud fraction threshold of 50% to designate a pixel as cloudy (EMP50). The low-resolution cloud masks from WRF-Solar EPS are evaluated directly against the cloud-resolving scale gridded observations from NSRDB using EMAll. With EMP50, we presume that scenes with less than 50% cloud cover from the 2-km NSRDB are clear. Thus, this assessment approach allows for a fair comparison with WRF-Solar EPS resolved to a 9-km grid. A method of point-by-point verification is used to evaluate dichotomous (yes/no) cloud mask predictions against the NSRDB. For each pixel of model extent, cloud frequency and traditional metrics (e.g., probability of detection, false alarm rate, and hit rate, etc.) are computed and compared with satellite-derived data sets. Mismatched cloud frequency (MCF) is computed to measure the present capability of WRF-Solar EPS in representing various types of clouds, which are categorized using three levels of cloud top height (CTH) and cloud optical depth (COD) across entire CONUS. Preliminary results show that the WRF-Solar EPS provides MCF values ranging from 9% to 46%, 16% to 33%, and 8% to 27% for low-level, middle-level, and high-level clouds, respectively, for three CTHs. The model produces MCFs ranging from 27% to 46%, 13% to 34%, and 8% to 19% for thin, medium-thickness, and thick clouds, respectively, for three CODs. The presentation will include a detailed description of the current outcomes as well as potential future extensions. The evaluation approach established in this study is readily extensible to the evaluation of cloud predictions from different ensemble NWP models. In addition, the findings of the suggested evaluation technique aid in identifying model weaknesses and will ultimately lead to advances in WRF-Solar EPS's skill in predicting clouds and solar irradiance.

Can disposable masks be worn more than once?

Disposable facemasks are a primary tool to prevent the transmission of SARS-COV-2 during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, plastic waste generated from their disposal represents a significant environmental problem that can be reduced by maximizing the service life of disposable masks. We evaluated the effect of repeated wearing on the fitted filtration efficiency (FFE) of N95, KF94, KN95, and procedure/surgical masks. The FFEs of masks were compared following extended wearing with and without washing. Results reveal that most disposable facemasks can retain a high level of their baseline FFE after extended wearing, even after 40 h of wearing. Laundering disposable masks degraded FFE in some instances. We conclude that the durability of disposable facemask performance is considerably longer than their intended single use indication, suggesting that reusing disposable masks is a safe means of reducing plastic waste in the environment.

Enhancing Nanoparticle Detection in Interferometric Scattering (iSCAT) Microscopy Using a Mask R-CNN

Interferometric scattering microscopy (iSCAT) is a label-free optical microscopy technique that enables imaging of individual nano-objects such as nanoparticles, viruses, and proteins. Essential to this technique is the suppression of background scattering and identification of signals from nano-objects. In the presence of substrates with high roughness, scattering heterogeneities in the background, when coupled with tiny stage movements, cause features in the background to be manifested in background-suppressed iSCAT images. Traditional computer vision algorithms detect these background features as particles, limiting the accuracy of object detection in iSCAT experiments. Here, in this paper, we present a pathway to improve particle detection in such situations using supervised machine learning via a mask region-based convolutional neural network (mask R-CNN). Using a model iSCAT experiment of 19.2 nm gold nanoparticles adsorbing to a rough layer-by-layer polyelectrolyte film, we develop a method to generate labeled datasets using experimental background images and simulated particle signals and train the mask R-CNN using limited computational resources via transfer learning. We then compare the performance of the mask R-CNN trained with and without inclusion of experimental backgrounds in the dataset against that of a traditional computer vision object detection algorithm, Haar-like feature detection, by analyzing data from the model experiment. Results demonstrate that including representative backgrounds in training datasets improved the mask R-CNN in differentiating between background and particle signals and elevated performance by markedly reducing false positives. The methodology for creating a labeled dataset with representative experimental backgrounds and simulated signals facilitates the application of machine learning in iSCAT experiments with strong background scattering and thus provides a useful workflow for future researchers to improve their image processing capabilities.

Robustness of the Galactic Center excess morphology against masking

The Galactic Center excess (GCE) remains an enduring mystery, with leading explanations being annihilating dark matter or an unresolved population of millisecond pulsars. Analyzing the morphology of the GCE provides critical clues to identify its exact origin. We investigate the robustness of the inferred GCE morphology against the effects of masking, an important step in the analysis where the gamma-ray emission from point sources and the galactic disk are excluded. Using different masks constructed from Fermi point source catalogs and a wavelet method, we find that the GCE morphology, particularly its ellipticity and cuspiness, is relatively independent of the choice of mask for energies above 2–3 GeV. The GCE morphology systematically favors an approximately spherical shape, as expected for dark matter annihilation. Compared to various stellar bulge profiles, a spherical dark matter annihilation profile better fits the data across different masks and galactic diffuse emission backgrounds, except for the stellar bulge profile which provides a similar fit to the data. Modeling the GCE with two components, one from dark matter annihilation and one tracing the Coleman bulge, we find this two-component model outperforms any single component or combinations of dark matter annihilation and other stellar bulge profiles. Uncertainty remains about the exact fraction contributed by each component across different background models and masks. Furthermore, when the Coleman bulge dominates, its corresponding spectrum lacks characteristics typically associated with millisecond pulsars, suggesting that it mostly models the emission from other sources instead of the GCE that is still present and spherically symmetric.

High-purity Polypropylene from Disposable Face Masks via Solvent-Targeted Recovery and Precipitation

The high use of disposable face masks since the start of COVID-19 has globally generated 4.68–6.24 million tons per year of waste from personal protective equipment. Disposable face masks are generally disposed of in landfills. Polypropylene (PP) is the main component in face masks, which is one of the least recycled plastics but has a high market value. In this work, we extract high-quality PP from face masks using solvent-targeted recovery and precipitation (STRAP) with 90 wt% recovery. N,N-Dimethylacetamide removed the color from the recovered PP to produce a clear high-purity PP, as verified by CIELAB color space. The decolored PP shows similar thermochemical properties and color to virgin PP resin. Here, a techno-economic analysis of the process indicates that high-purity PP recovery can be economically viable at a scale of 5000 tons per year or higher.

Face mask integrated with flexible and wearable manganite oxide respiration sensor

Face masks are key personal protective equipment for reducing exposure to viruses and other environmental hazards such as air pollution. Integrating flexible and wearable sensors into face masks can provide valuable insights into personal and public health. The advantages that a breath-monitoring face mask requires, including multi-functional sensing ability and continuous, long-term dynamic breathing process monitoring, have been underdeveloped to date. Here, we design an effective human breath monitoring face mask based on a flexible La 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 (LSMO)/Mica respiration sensor. The sensor’s capabilities and systematic measurements are investigated under two application scenes, namely clinical monitoring mode and daily monitoring mode, to monitor, recognise, and analyse different human breath status, i.e., cough, normal breath, and deep breath. This sensing system exhibits super-stability and multi-modal capabilities in continuous and long-time monitoring of the human breath. We determine that during monitoring human breath, thermal diffusion in LSMO is responsible for the change of resistance in flexible LSMO/Mica sensor. Both simulated and experimental results demonstrate good discernibility of the flexible LSMO/Mica sensor operating at different breath status. Our work opens a route for the design of novel flexible and wearable electronic devices.

CAMIS: A Cylindrical Active Mask Imaging System

Detecting and locating radiological and nuclear materials at distances of 10 m or more in urban and cluttered environments continues to pose challenges in nuclear security and proliferation detection. Previous approaches have focused on large-area radiation imaging using planar configurations of detectors and passive masks. However, these approaches suffer from limitations such as limited field-of-view (FOV) and reduced detection efficiency due to absorption in the mask. To address these limitations, we have developed the cylindrical active mask imaging system (CAMIS). This system comprises 128 NaI(Tl) (10 cm)3 detectors. These detectors are arranged in a cylindrical configuration, enabling gamma-ray imaging with a full 360° azimuthal FOV. The active mask elements within the system are arranged in a pseudorandom configuration, providing unique encoding for all incident directions within the FOV. CAMIS offers an effective detection area of approximately 1 m2 across the entire 360° FOV in the horizontal plane, achieving a mean angular resolution of 10.9° in the azimuthal direction and 12.9° in the polar direction measured by taking the full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of a cross-section at the maximum reconstructed intensity.

Zone plate-based extreme ultraviolet mask microscope with through-pellicle imaging capability

Mirror-based and zone plate-based imaging systems are being used in actinic extreme ultraviolet (EUV) reticle review tools. With regard to zone plates, a short working distance is advantageous in terms of the required spectral bandwidth, manufacturability, and potential throughput and imaging performance. Zone plates therefore typically have a short working distance. The industry has adopted the use of an EUV pellicle to protect the photomask. Imaging photomask through-pellicle requires a working distance larger than 2.5 mm. A zone-plate-based EUV mask microscope with a 3-mm working distance has been commissioned at beamline 11.3.2 of the Advanced Light Source. Through-pellicle imaging at an exposure time of 2 s is demonstrated. The instrument achieves an image contrast of 95% on large features on a photomask with a tantalum-based absorber. Imaging down to 45-nm half pitch (mask scale) is demonstrated. A NILS of 2.55 is achieved on 60-nm half-pitch (mask scale) lines and spaces. These results demonstrate that zone-plate-based imaging systems can meet the requirements of an actinic EUV mask review tool in terms of imaging performance and throughput in an instrument compatible with EUV pellicles.

Evaluating WRF-Solar EPS cloud mask forecast using the NSRDB

Improving the accuracy of day-ahead solar forecasts using numerical weather prediction models requires improving the forecasting of cloud occurrence and properties. Validating cloud forecasts is challenging because this requires evaluating different types of clouds over a wide variety of regions. This study analyzes the cloud occurrence (or cloud mask) over the contiguous United States (CONUS), predicted by the Weather Research and Forecasting-Solar Ensemble Prediction System (WRF-Solar EPS), to identify the strengths and limitations of the model in reproducing cloud fields. To enable the in-depth analysis of cloud mask forecasts covering CONUS, we use satellite observations from the National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB). Two evaluation methods are implemented to consider all clouds and partially removed clouds from the 2-km NSRDB in evaluating the 9-km WRF-Solar EPS cloud mask. Cloud detection metrics as well as the frequency of cloud occurrence are used to quantify the monthly performance of WRF-Solar EPS. Mismatched cloud frequency (MCF) is used to assess the model's capability to predict different types of clouds, which are classified using three levels of cloud optical depth (COD) and cloud top height (CTH). The day-ahead forecasts covering the full year of 2018 demonstrate that WRF-Solar EPS produces MCFs ranging from 27%-46%, 13%-34%, and 8%-19% for thin, mid-thickness, and thick clouds, respectively. For three CTH levels, the model shows MCFs ranging from 19%-46%, 16%-33%, and 8%-27% for low-level, middle-level, and high-level clouds, respectively. This comprehensive characterization of model performance helps identify model weakness and will eventually lead to improvements in cloud and solar radiation forecasting.

Selective thermal neutron transmutation doping with Gd masks in GaN semiconductors

For the first time, selective neutron transmutation doping was successfully performed on GaN through Gd masks, showing the feasibility of patternable doping through neutron irradiations. In collaborating with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, GaN with Gd masks was irradiated by directional neutrons. By using the Gd properties with high neutron absorption cross-sections, it was confirmed that the area covered by Gd masks on GaN was completely shielded from neutrons, and the uncovered area was doped with the generated Ge and 14 C. Property differences were clearly identified in various ways when comparing the area exposed by neutrons and the area unexposed by neutrons. The discoloration by the ejected protons and elastic scattering of neutrons appeared only in the exposed area while the unexposed area remained the same as before irradiation. The aspect ratio of the patterned profile of GaN was estimated by comparing patterns on the front and backside. From energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy spectra and secondary ion mass spectrometry measurement, the concentration difference between Ge and 14 C as well as the exact concentration of produced 14 C was also checked. Further, Schottky barrier diodes on the selectively doped GaN were fabricated and investigated to study the electrical properties.

Validation of the DESI 2024 Lyman alpha forest BAL masking strategy

Broad absorption line quasars (BALs) exhibit blueshifted absorption relative to a number of their prominent broad emission features. These absorption features can contribute to quasar redshift errors and add absorption to the Lyman-α (Lyα) forest that is unrelated to large-scale structure. We present a detailed analysis of the impact of BALs on the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) results with the Lyα forest from the first year of data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). The baseline strategy for the first year analysis is to mask all pixels associated with all BAL absorption features that fall within the wavelength region used to measure the forest. We explore a range of alternate masking strategies and demonstrate that these changes have minimal impact on the BAO measurements with both DESI data and synthetic data. This includes when we mask the BAL features associated with emission lines outside of the forest region to minimize their contribution to redshift errors. We identify differences in the properties of BALs in the synthetic datasets relative to the observational data, as well as use the synthetic observations to characterize the completeness of the BAL identification algorithm, and demonstrate that incompleteness and differences in the BALs between real and synthetic data also do not impact the BAO results for the Lyα forest.

Masked Particle Modeling on Sets: Towards Self-Supervised High Energy Physics Foundation Models

Abstract We propose masked particle modeling (MPM) as a self-supervised method for learning generic, transferable, and reusable representations on unordered sets of inputs for use in high energy physics (HEP) scientific data. This work provides a novel scheme to perform masked modeling based pre-training to learn permutation invariant functions on sets. More generally, this work provides a step towards building large foundation models for HEP that can be generically pre-trained with self-supervised learning and later fine-tuned for a variety of down-stream tasks. In MPM, particles in a set are masked and the training objective is to recover their identity, as defined by a discretized token representation of a pre-trained vector quantized variational autoencoder. We study the efficacy of the method in samples of high energy jets at collider physics experiments, including studies on the impact of discretization, permutation invariance, and ordering. We also study the fine-tuning capability of the model, showing that it can be adapted to tasks such as supervised and weakly supervised jet classification, and that the model can transfer efficiently with small fine-tuning data sets to new classes and new data domains.
