AB Validating the calculations of kinetic resistive wall mode (RWM) stability is important for confidently predicting RWM stable operating regions in ITER and other high performance tokamaks for disruption avoidance. Benchmarking the calculations of the Magnetohydrodynamic Resistive Spectrum-Kinetic (MARS-K) [Y. Liu et al., Phys. Plasmas 15, 112503 (2008)], Modification to Ideal Stability by Kinetic effects (MISK) [B. Hu et al., Phys. Plasmas 12, 057301 (2005)], and Perturbed Equilibrium Nonambipolar Transport (PENT) [N. Logan et al., Phys. Plasmas 20, 122507 (2013)] codes for two Solov'ev analytical equilibria and a projected ITER equilibrium has demonstrated good agreement between the codes. The important particle frequencies, the frequency resonance energy integral in which they are used, the marginally stable eigenfunctions, perturbed Lagrangians, and fluid growth rates are all generally consistent between the codes. The most important kinetic effect at low rotation is the resonance between the mode rotation and the trapped thermal particle's precession drift, and MARS- K, MISK, and PENT show good agreement in this term. The different ways the rational surface contribution was treated historically in the codes is identified as a source of disagreement in the bounce and transit resonance terms at higher plasma rotation. Calculations from all of the codes support the present understanding that RWM stability can be increased by kinetic effects at low rotation through precession drift resonance and at high rotation by bounce and transit resonances, while intermediate rotation can remain susceptible to instability. The applicability of benchmarked kinetic stability calculations to experimental results is demonstrated by the prediction of MISK calculations of near marginal growth rates for experimental marginal stability points from the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) [M. Ono et al., Nucl. Fusion 40, 557 (2000)]. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

ID RESISTIVE WALL MODES; 2ND REGION; STABILIZATION; ROTATION
AB Global mode stability is studied in high-beta National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) plasmas to avoid disruptions. Dedicated experiments in NSTX using low frequency active magnetohydrodynamic spectroscopy of applied rotating n = 1 magnetic fields revealed key dependencies of stability on plasma parameters. Observations from previous NSTX resistive wall mode (RWM) active control experiments and the wider NSTX disruption database indicated that the highest beta(N) plasmas were not the least stable. Significantly, here, stability was measured to increase at beta(N)/l(i) higher than the point where disruptions were found. This favorable behavior is shown to correlate with kinetic stability rotational resonances, and an experimentally determined range of measured E x B frequency with improved stability is identified. Stable plasmas appear to benefit further from reduced collisionality, in agreement with expectation from kinetic RWM stabilization theory, but low collisionality plasmas are also susceptible to sudden instability when kinetic profiles change.

ID AXISYMMETRICAL TOROIDAL PLASMAS; SHEAR-ALFVEN EIGENMODES; WAVES;
EXCITATION; TOKAMAKS
AB Continuum resonance damping is an important factor in determining the stability of certain global modes in fusion plasmas. A number of analytic and numerical approaches have been developed to compute this damping, particularly, in the case of the toroidicity-induced shear Alfven eigenmode. This paper compares results obtained using an analytical perturbative approach with those found using resistive and complex contour numerical approaches. It is found that the perturbative method does not provide accurate agreement with reliable numerical methods for the range of parameters examined. This discrepancy exists even in the limit where damping approaches zero. When the perturbative technique is implemented using a standard finite element method, the damping estimate fails to converge with radial grid resolution. The finite elements used cannot accurately represent the eigenmode in the region of the continuum resonance, regardless of the number of radial grid points used. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB Three-dimensional kinetic simulations of magnetic reconnection for parameter regimes relevant to the magnetopause current layer feature the development of turbulence, driven by the magnetic and velocity shear, and dominated by coherent structures including flux ropes, current sheets, and flow vortices. Here, we propose a new approach for computing the global reconnection rate in the presence of this complexity. The mixing of electrons originating from separate sides of the magnetopause layer is used as a proxy to rapidly identify the magnetic topology and track the evolution of magnetic flux. The details of this method are illustrated for an asymmetric current layer relevant to the subsolar magnetopause and for a flow shear dominated layer relevant to the lower latitude magnetopause. While the three-dimensional reconnection rates show a number of interesting differences relative to the corresponding two-dimensional simulations, the time scale for the energy conversion remains very similar. These results suggest that the mixing of field lines between topologies is more easily influenced by kinetic turbulence than the physics responsible for the energy conversion.

ID KELVIN-HELMHOLTZ INSTABILITY; OMEGA-EP; TAYLOR; DESIGN; FLUIDS
AB In this work, we examine the hydrodynamics of high-energy-density (HED) shear flows. Experiments, consisting of two materials of differing density, use the OMEGA-60 laser to drive a blast wave at a pressure of similar to 50 Mbar into one of the media, creating a shear flow in the resulting shocked system. The interface between the two materials is Kelvin-Helmholtz unstable, and a mixing layer of growing width develops due to the shear. To theoretically analyze the instability's behavior, we rely on two sources of information. First, the interface spectrum is well-characterized, which allows us to identify how the shock front and the subsequent shear in the post-shock flow interact with the interface. These observations provide direct evidence that vortex merger dominates the evolution of the interface structure. Second, simulations calibrated to the experiment allow us to estimate the time-dependent evolution of the deposition of vorticity at the interface. The overall result is that we are able to choose a hydrodynamic model for the system, and consequently examine how well the flow in this HED system corresponds to a classical hydrodynamic description.

ID EQUATIONS; MODELS; TURBULENCE; TRANSPORT
AB An efficient and versatile non-Fourier method for the computation of Landau-fluid (LF) closure operators [Hammett and Perkins, Phys. Rev. Lett. 64, 3019 (1990)] is presented, based on an approximation by a sum of modified-Helmholtz-equation solves (SMHS) in configuration space. This method can yield fast-Fourier-like scaling of the computational time requirements and also provides a very compact data representation of these operators, even for plasmas with large spatial nonuniformity. As a result, the method can give significant savings compared with direct application of "delocalization kernels" [e.g., Schurtz et al., Phys. Plasmas 7, 4238 (2000)], both in terms of computational cost and memory requirements. The method is of interest for the implementation of Landau-fluid models in situations where the spatial nonuniformity, particular geometry, or boundary conditions render a Fourier implementation difficult or impossible. Systematic procedures have been developed to optimize the resulting operators for accuracy and computational cost. The four-moment Landau-fluid model of Hammett and Perkins has been implemented in the BOUT++ code using the SMHS method for LF closure. Excellent agreement has been obtained for the one-dimensional plasma density response function between driven initial-value calculations using this BOUT++ implementation and matrix eigenvalue calculations using both Fourier and SMHS non-Fourier implementations of the LF closures. The SMHS method also forms the basis for the implementation, which has been carried out in the BOUT++ code, of the parallel and toroidal drift-resonance LF closures. The method is a key enabling tool for the extension of gyro-Landau-fluid models [e.g., Beer and Hammett, Phys. Plasmas 3, 4046 (1996)] to codes that treat regions with strong profile variation, such as the tokamak edge and scrapeoff-layer. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB This work focused on a new application of the shock-and-release technique for equation of state (EOS) measurements. Warm dense matter states at near normal solid density and at temperatures close to 10 eV in diamond and graphite samples were created using a deep release from a laser-driven shock at the OMEGA laser facility. Independent temperature, density, and pressure measurements that do not depend on any theoretical models or simulations were obtained using imaging x-ray Thomson scattering, radiography, velocity interferometry, and streaked optical pyrometry. The experimental results were reproduced by the 2-D FLASH radiation hydrodynamics simulations finding a good agreement. The final EOS measurement was then compared with widely used SESAME EOS models as well as quantum molecular dynamics simulation results for carbon, which were very consistent with the experimental data.

AB Reaching ignition in direct-drive (DD) inertial confinement fusion implosions requires achieving central pressures in excess of 100 Gbar. The OMEGA laser system [T. R. Boehly et al., Opt. Commun. 133, 495 (1997)] is used to study the physics of implosions that are hydrodynamically equivalent to the ignition designs on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) [J. A. Paisner et al., Laser Focus World 30, 75 (1994)]. It is shown that the highest hot-spot pressures (up to 40 Gbar) are achieved in target designs with a fuel adiabat of alpha similar or equal to 4, an implosion velocity of 3.8 x 10(7) cm/s, and a laser intensity of similar to 10(15) W/cm(2). These moderate-adiabat implosions are well understood using two-dimensional hydrocode simulations. The performance of lower-adiabat implosions is significantly degraded relative to code predictions, a common feature between DD implosions on OMEGA and indirect-drive cryogenic implosions on the NIF. Simplified theoretical models are developed to gain physical understanding of the implosion dynamics that dictate the target performance. These models indicate that degradations in the shell density and integrity (caused by hydrodynamic instabilities during the target acceleration) coupled with hydrodynamics at stagnation are the main failure mechanisms in low-adiabat designs. To demonstrate ignition hydrodynamic equivalence in cryogenic implosions on OMEGA, the target-design robustness to hydrodynamic instability growth must be improved by reducing laser-coupling losses caused by cross beam energy transfer.

AB A long-pulse high confinement plasma regime known as H-mode is achieved in the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) with a record duration over 30 s, sustained by Lower Hybrid wave Current Drive (LHCD) with advanced lithium wall conditioning and divertor pumping. This long-pulse H-mode plasma regime is characterized by the co-existence of a small Magneto-Hydrodynamic (MHD) instability, i.e., Edge Localized Modes (ELMs) and a continuous quasi-coherent MHD mode at the edge. We find that LHCD provides an intrinsic boundary control for ELMs, leading to a dramatic reduction in the transient power load on the vessel wall, compared to the standard Type I ELMs. LHCD also induces edge plasma ergodization, broadening heat deposition footprints, and the heat transport caused by ergodization can be actively controlled by regulating edge plasma conditions, thus providing a new means for stationary heat flux control. In addition, advanced tokamak scenarios have been newly developed for high-performance long-pulse plasma operations in the next EAST experimental campaign. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB Alfven eigenmodes in up-down asymmetric tokamak equilibria are studied by a new magnetohydrodynamic eigenvalue code. The code is verified with the NOVA code for the Solovev equilibrium and then is used to study Alfven eigenmodes in a up-down asymmetric equilibrium of the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak. The frequency and mode structure of toroidicity-induced Alfven eigenmodes are calculated. It is demonstrated numerically that up-down asymmetry induces phase variation in the eigenfunction across the major radius on the midplane. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB The "High-Foot" platform manipulates the laser pulse-shape coming from the National Ignition Facility laser to create an indirect drive 3-shock implosion that is significantly more robust against instability growth involving the ablator and also modestly reduces implosion convergence ratio. This strategy gives up on theoretical high-gain in an inertial confinement fusion implosion in order to obtain better control of the implosion and bring experimental performance in-line with calculated performance, yet keeps the absolute capsule performance relatively high. In this paper, we will cover the various experimental and theoretical motivations for the high-foot drive as well as cover the experimental results that have come out of the high-foot experimental campaign. At the time of this writing, the high-foot implosion has demonstrated record total deuterium-tritium yields (9.3 x 10(15)) with low levels of inferred mix, excellent agreement with implosion simulations, fuel energy gains exceeding unity, and evidence for the "bootstrapping" associated with alpha-particle self-heating.

AB A non-perturbative magnetohydrodynamic-kinetic hybrid formulation is developed and implemented into the MARS-K code [Liu et al., Phys. Plasmas 15, 112503 (2008)] that takes into account the anisotropy and asymmetry [Graves et al., Nature Commun. 3, 624 (2012)] of the equilibrium distribution of energetic particles (EPs) in particle pitch angle space, as well as first order finite orbit width (FOW) corrections for both passing and trapped EPs. Anisotropic models, which affect both the adiabatic and non-adiabatic drift kinetic energy contributions, are implemented for both neutral beam injection and ion cyclotron resonant heating induced EPs. The first order FOW correction does not contribute to the precessional drift resonance of trapped particles, but generally remains finite for the bounce and transit resonance contributions, as well as for the adiabatic contributions from asymmetrically distributed passing particles. Numerical results for a 9MA steady state ITER plasma suggest that (i) both the anisotropy and FOW effects can be important for the resistive wall mode stability in ITER plasmas; and (ii) the non-perturbative approach predicts less kinetic stabilization of the mode, than the perturbative approach, in the presence of anisotropy and FOW effects for the EPs. The latter may partially be related to the modification of the eigenfunction of the mode by the drift kinetic effects.

AB Using simultaneous spectrally, angularly, and temporally resolved x-ray scattering, we measure the pronounced ion-ion correlation peak in a strongly coupled plasma. Laser-driven shock-compressed aluminum at similar to 3x solid density is probed with high-energy photons at 17.9 keV created by molybdenum He-alpha emission in a laser-driven plasma source. The measured elastic scattering feature shows a well-pronounced correlation peak at a wave vector of k = 4 angstrom(-1). The magnitude of this correlation peak cannot be described by standard plasma theories employing a linear screened Coulomb potential. Advanced models, including a strong short-range repulsion due to the inner structure of the aluminum ions are however in good agreement with the scattering data. These studies have demonstrated a new highly accurate diagnostic technique to directly measure the state of compression and the ion-ion correlations. We have since applied this new method in single-shot wave-number resolved S(k) measurements to characterize the physical properties of dense plasmas. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

ID INDIRECT-DRIVE TARGETS; LASER
AB High Density Carbon (HDC) is a leading candidate as an ablator material for Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) capsules in x-ray (indirect) drive implosions. HDC has a higher density (3.5 g/cc) than plastic (CH, 1 g/cc), which results in a thinner ablator with a larger inner radius for a given capsule scale. This leads to higher x-ray absorption and shorter laser pulses compared to equivalent CH designs. This paper will describe a series of experiments carried out to examine the feasibility of using HDC as an ablator using both gas filled hohlraums and lower density, near vacuum hohlraums. These experiments have shown that deuterium (DD) and deuterium-tritium gas filled HDC capsules driven by a hohlraum filled with 1.2 mg/cc He gas, produce neutron yields a factor of 2x higher than equivalent CH implosions, representing better than 50% Yield-over-Clean (YoC). In a near vacuum hohlraum (He = 0.03 mg/cc) with 98% laser-to-hohlraum coupling, such a DD gas-filled capsule performed near 1D expectations. A cryogenic layered implosion version was consistent with a fuel velocity = 410 +/- 20 km/s with no observed ablator mixing into the hot spot. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

TI Enhanced stopping of macro-particles in particle-in-cell simulations
SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS
LA English
DT Article
ID PLASMA; CODE; SHOCKS
AB We derive an equation for energy transfer from relativistic charged particles to a cold background plasma appropriate for finite-size particles that are used in particle-in-cell simulation codes. Expressions for one-, two-, and three-dimensional particles are presented, with special attention given to the two-dimensional case. This energy transfer is due to the electric field of the wake set up in the background plasma by the relativistic particle. The enhanced stopping is dependent on the q(2)/m, where q is the charge and m is the mass of the relativistic particle, and therefore simulation macro-particles with large charge but identical q/m will stop more rapidly. The stopping power also depends on the effective particle shape of the macro-particle. These conclusions are verified in particle-in-cell simulations. We present 2D simulations of test particles, relaxation of high-energy tails, and integrated fast ignition simulations showing that the enhanced drag on macro-particles may adversely affect the results of these simulations in a wide range of high-energy density plasma scenarios. We also describe a particle splitting algorithm which can potentially overcome this problem and show its effect in controlling the stopping of macro-particles. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB We report spatially resolved measurements of the oblique merging of two supersonic laboratory plasma jets. The jets are formed and launched by pulsed-power-driven railguns using injected argon, and have electron density similar to 10(14) cm(-3), electron temperature approximate to 1.4 eV, ionization fraction near unity, and velocity approximate to 40 km/s just prior to merging. The jet merging produces a few-cm-thick stagnation layer, as observed in both fast-framing camera images and multi-chord interferometer data, consistent with collisional shock formation [E. C.

AB Advances in hohlraums for inertial confinement fusion at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) were made this past year in hohlraum efficiency, dynamic shape control, and hot electron and x-ray preheat control. Recent experiments are exploring hohlraum behavior over a large landscape of parameters by changing the hohlraum shape, gas-fill, and laser pulse. Radiation hydrodynamic modeling, which uses measured backscatter, shows that gas-filled hohlraums utilize between 60% and 75% of the laser power to match the measured bang-time, whereas near-vacuum hohlraums utilize 98%. Experiments seem to be pointing to deficiencies in the hohlraum (instead of capsule) modeling to explain most of the inefficiency in gas-filled targets. Experiments have begun quantifying the Cross Beam Energy Transfer (CBET) rate at several points in time for hohlraum experiments that utilize CBET for implosion symmetry. These measurements will allow better control of the dynamic implosion symmetry for these targets. New techniques are being developed to measure the hot electron energy and energy spectra generated at both early and late time. Rugby hohlraums offer a target which requires little to no CBET and may be less vulnerable to undesirable dynamic symmetry "swings." A method for detecting the effect of the energetic electrons on the fuel offers a direct measure of the hot electron effects as well as a means to test energetic electron mitigation methods. At higher hohlraum radiation temperatures (including near vacuum hohlraums), the increased hard x-rays (1.8-4 keV) may pose an x-ray preheat problem. Future experiments will explore controlling these x-rays with advanced wall materials. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

TI Sharp transition between two regimes of operation of dc discharge with
two anodes and thermionic emission from cathode
SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS
LA English
DT Article
ID PLASMA
AB In a dc discharge plasma with two anodes and thermionic emission from cathode, the two anodes are used for plasma control. The main anode is placed between the cathode and the other auxiliary anode has a circular opening for passing electron current from the cathode to the second anode. It is experimentally demonstrated that a plasma may exhibit a sudden transition between two quasi-stable conditions as one increases the cathode-electron current collected by the auxiliary anode through an aperture, i.e., hole, in the main anode. In one regime, a bright glowing "ball-shaped double layer" appears on the plasma side having a potential drop of 10-15 eV and concomitant ionization in the neighboring region attached to the opening. The second regime is characterized by a uniform potential profile in plasma and an absence of the ball-shaped double layer. The transition between these regimes is accompanied by a significant change in plasma properties, such as the electron energy distribution function (EEDF). Controlling the EEDF is a valuable capability in technological applications. Increasing the gas pressure leads to the elimination of the first regime for sufficiently high gas pressure, the threshold being a few Torr. The disappearance of a regime transition can be explained by invoking an EEDF transition, from being nonlocal at low pressure to becoming local at high pressure. Local EEDF is determined by local values of electric field. Nonlocal EEDF is determined by electric field values elsewhere, and the electron can travel without energy loss over a path much longer than the discharge dimension. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB Experimental tests are in progress to evaluate the accuracy of the modeled iron opacity at solar interior conditions, in particular to better constrain the solar abundance problem [S. Basu and H. M. Antia, Phys. Rep. 457, 217 (2008)]. Here, we describe measurements addressing three of the key requirements for reliable opacity experiments: control of sample conditions, independent sample condition diagnostics, and verification of sample condition uniformity. The opacity samples consist of iron/magnesium layers tamped by plastic. By changing the plastic thicknesses, we have controlled the iron plasma conditions to reach (1) T-e = 167 +/- 3 eV and n(e) = (7.1 +/- 1.5) x 10(21) cm(-3), (2) T-e = 170 +/- 2 eV and n(e) = (2.0 +/- 0.2) x 10(22) cm(-3), and (3) T-e = 196 +/- 6 eV and n(e) = (3.8 +/- 0.8) x 10(22) cm(-3), which were measured by magnesium tracer K-shell spectroscopy. The opacity sample non-uniformity was directly measured by a separate experiment where Al is mixed into the side of the sample facing the radiation source and Mg into the other side. The iron condition was confirmed to be uniform within their measurement uncertainties by Al and Mg K-shell spectroscopy. The conditions are suitable for testing opacity calculations needed for modeling the solar interior, other stars, and high energy density plasmas. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB Two-dimensional space-resolved temperature and density images of an inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosion core have been diagnosed for the first time. Argon-doped, direct-drive ICF experiments were performed at the Omega Laser Facility and a collection of two-dimensional space-resolved spectra were obtained from an array of gated, spectrally resolved pinhole images recorded by a multi-monochromatic x-ray imager. Detailed spectral analysis revealed asymmetries of the core not just in shape and size but in the temperature and density spatial distributions, thus characterizing the core with an unprecedented level of detail.

AB We present a summary of recent experiments on focusing of laser target-normal-sheath-accelerated (TNSA) proton beam with a stack of thin conducting foils. The experiments were performed using the Phelix laser (GSI-Darmstadt) and the Titan laser, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The phenomena consistent with self-collimation (or weak self-focusing) of TNSA protons were experimentally observed for the first time at the Phelix laser user facility, in a specially engineered structure ("lens") consisting of a stack of 300 thin aluminum foils separated by 50 mu m vacuum gaps. Follow up experiments using the Titan laser obtained results consistent with the collimation/focusing observed in the initial experiments using the Phelix. The Titan experiments employed improved, 25 mu m- and 50 mu m-gap targets and the new fine mesh diagnostic. All the experiments were carried out in a "passive environment," i.e., no external fields were applied, and no neutralization plasma or injection of secondary charged particles was imposed. A plausible interpretation of the observed phenomena is that the combination of magnetic self-pinch forces generated by the beam current together with the simultaneous reduction of the repulsive electrostatic forces due to the conducting foils inhibits radial expansion of the beam.

AB Shock-driven implosions of thin-shell capsules, or "exploding pushers," generate low-density, high-temperature plasmas in which hydrodynamic instability growth is negligible and kinetic effects can play an important role. Data from implosions of thin deuterated-plastic shells with hydroequivalent (DHe)-He-3 gas fills ranging from pure deuterium to pure He-3 [H. G. Rinderknecht et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 135001 (2014)] were obtained to evaluate non-hydrodynamic fuel-shell mix mechanisms. Simulations of the experiments including reduced ion kinetic models support ion diffusion as an explanation for these data. Several additional kinetic mechanisms are investigated and compared to the data to determine which are important in the experiments. Shock acceleration of shell deuterons is estimated to introduce mix less than or comparable to the amount required to explain the data. Beam-target mechanisms are found to produce yields at most an order of magnitude less than the observations. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB The Z Facility at Sandia National Laboratories [Matzen et al., Phys. Plasmas 12, 055503 (2005)] provides MJ-class x-ray sources that can emit powers >0.3 PW. This capability enables benchmark experiments of fundamental material properties in radiation-heated matter at conditions previously unattainable in the laboratory. Experiments on Z can produce uniform, long-lived, and large plasmas with volumes up to 20 cc, temperatures from 1-200 eV, and electron densities from 10(17-23) cc(-1). These unique characteristics and the ability to radiatively heat multiple experiments in a single shot have led to a new effort called the Z Astrophysical Plasma Properties (ZAPP) collaboration. The focus of the ZAPP collaboration is to reproduce the radiation and material characteristics of astrophysical plasmas as closely as possible in the laboratory and use detailed spectral measurements to strengthen models for atoms in plasmas. Specific issues under investigation include the LTE opacity of iron at stellar-interior conditions, photoionization around active galactic nuclei, the efficiency of resonant Auger destruction in black-hole accretion disks, and H-Balmer line shapes in white dwarf photospheres.

DT Editorial Material
AB In the recently published paper "Magnetic geometry and physics of advanced divertors: The X-divertor and the snowflake" [Phys. Plasmas 20, 102507 (2013)], the authors raise interesting and important issues concerning divertor physics and design. However, the paper contains significant errors: (a) The conceptual framework used in it for the evaluation of divertor "quality" is reduced to the assessment of the magnetic field structure in the outer Scrape-Off Layer. This framework is incorrect because processes affecting the pedestal, the private flux region and all of the divertor legs (four, in the case of a snowflake) are an inseparable part of divertor operation. (b) The concept of the divertor index focuses on only one feature of the magnetic field structure and can be quite misleading when applied to divertor design. (c) The suggestion to rename the divertor configurations experimentally realized on NSTX (National Spherical Torus Experiment) and DIII-D (Doublet III-D) from snowflakes to X-divertors is not justified: it is not based on comparison of these configurations with the prototypical X-divertor, and it ignores the fact that the NSTX and DIII-D poloidal magnetic field geometries fit very well into the snowflake "two-null" prescription.

AB The interaction of a laser-driven super-Alfvenic magnetic piston with a large, preformed magnetized ambient plasma has been studied by utilizing a unique experimental platform that couples the Raptor kJ-class laser system [Niemann et al., J. Instrum. 7, P03010 (2012)] to the Large Plasma Device [Gekelman et al., Rev. Sci. Instrum. 62, 2875 (1991)] at the University of California, Los Angeles. This platform provides experimental conditions of relevance to space and astrophysical magnetic collisionless shocks and, in particular, allows a detailed study of the microphysics of shock formation, including piston-ambient ion collisionless coupling. An overview of the platform and its capabilities is given, and recent experimental results on the coupling of energy between piston and ambient ions and the formation of collisionless shocks are presented and compared to theoretical and computational work. In particular, a magnetosonic pulse consistent with a low-Mach number collisionless shock is observed in a quasi-perpendicular geometry in both experiments and simulations.

AB Hydrodynamic instability growth and its effects on implosion performance were studied at the National Ignition Facility [G. H. Miller, E. I. Moses, and C. R. Wuest, Opt. Eng. 443, 2841 (2004)]. Implosion performance and mix have been measured at peak compression using plastic shells filled with tritium gas and containing embedded localized carbon-deuterium diagnostic layers in various locations in the ablator. Neutron yield and ion temperature of the deuterium-tritium fusion reactions were used as a measure of shell-gas mix, while neutron yield of the tritium-tritium fusion reaction was used as a measure of implosion performance. The results have indicated that the low-mode hydrodynamic instabilities due to surface roughness were the primary culprits for yield degradation, with atomic ablator-gas mix playing a secondary role. In addition, spherical shells with pre-imposed 2D modulations were used to measure instability growth in the acceleration phase of the implosions. The capsules were imploded using ignition-relevant laser pulses, and ablation-front modulation growth was measured using x-ray radiography for a shell convergence ratio of similar to 2. The measured growth was in good agreement with that predicted, thus validating simulations for the fastest growing modulations with mode numbers up to 90 in the acceleration phase. Future experiments will be focused on measurements at higher convergence, higher-mode number modulations, and growth occurring during the deceleration phase. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

ID REVERSED-FIELD PINCH; RFX-MOD; MAGNETIC PERTURBATIONS; NEOCLASSICAL
TRANSPORT; TOKAMAK PLASMAS; STABILITY
AB A series of issues with toroidally confined fusion plasmas are related to the generation of 3D flow patterns by means of edge magnetic islands, embedded in a chaotic field and interacting with the wall. These issues include the Greenwald limit in Tokamaks and reversed-field pinches, the collisionality window for ELM mitigation with the resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) in Tokamaks, and edge islands interacting with the bootstrap current in stellarators. Measurements of the 2D map of the edge electric field E-r (r = a, theta, phi) in the RFX reversed-field pinch show that E-r has the same helicity of the magnetic islands generated by a m/n perturbation: in fact, defining the helical angle u = m theta - n phi + omega t, maps show a sinusoidal dependence as a function of u, E-r = (E) over tilde (r) sin u. The associated E x B flow displays a huge convective cell with v(a) not equal 0 which, in RFX and near the Greenwald limit, determines a stagnation point for density and a reversal of the sign of E-r. From a theoretical point of view, the question is how a perturbed toroidal flux of symmetry m/n gives rise to an ambipolar potential Phi = (Phi) over tilde sin u. On the basis of a model developed with the guiding center code ORBIT and applied to RFX and the TEXTOR tokamak, we will show that the presence of an m/n perturbation in any kind of device breaks the toroidal symmetry with a drift proportional to the gyroradius rho, thus larger for ions (rho(i) >> rho(e)). Immediately, an ambipolar potential arises to balance the drifts, with the same symmetry as the original perturbation.

AB The Trapped Gyro-Landau Fluid (TGLF) quasi-linear model [G. M. Staebler, et al., Phys. Plasmas 12, 102508 (2005)], which is calibrated to nonlinear gyrokinetic turbulence simulations, is now able to predict the electron density, electron and ion temperatures, and ion toroidal rotation simultaneously for internal transport barrier (ITB) discharges. This is a strong validation of gyrokinetic theory of ITBs, requiring multiple instabilities responsible for transport in different channels at different scales. The mystery of transport inside the ITB is that momentum and particle transport is far above the predicted neoclassical levels in apparent contradiction with the expectation from the theory of suppression of turbulence by E x B velocity shear. The success of TGLF in predicting ITB transport is due to the inclusion of ion gyro-radius scale modes that become dominant at high E x B velocity shear and to improvements to TGLF that allow momentum transport from gyrokinetic turbulence to be faithfully modeled.

AB Laboratory experiments have been used to investigate the fundamental interactions responsible for deuterium retention in lithiated graphite. Oxygen was found to be present and play a key role in experiments that simulated NSTX lithium conditioning, where the atomic surface concentration can increase to >40% when deuterium retention chemistry is observed. Quantum-classical molecular dynamic simulations elucidated this oxygen-deuterium effect and showed that oxygen retains significantly more deuterium than lithium in a simulated matrix with 20% lithium, 20% oxygen, and 60% carbon. Simulations further show that deuterium retention is even higher when lithium is removed from the matrix. Experiments artificially increased the oxygen content in graphite to similar to 16% and then bombarded with deuterium. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy showed depletion of the oxygen and no enhanced deuterium retention, thus demonstrating that lithium is essential in retaining the oxygen that thereby retains deuterium.

AB In order to achieve ignition using inertial confinement fusion it is important to control the growth of low-mode asymmetries as the capsule is compressed. Understanding the time-dependent evolution of the shape of the hot spot and surrounding fuel layer is crucial to optimizing implosion performance. A design and experimental campaign to examine sources of asymmetry and to quantify symmetry throughout the implosion has been developed and executed on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) [E. I. Moses et al., Phys. Plasmas 16, 041006 (2009)]. We have constructed a large simulation database of asymmetries applied during different time intervals. Analysis of the database has shown the need to measure and control the hot-spot shape, areal density distribution, and symmetry swings during the implosion. The shape of the hot spot during final stagnation is measured using time-resolved imaging of the self-emission, and information on the shape of the fuel at stagnation can be obtained from Compton radiography [R. Tommasini et al., Phys. Plasmas 18, 056309 (2011)]. For the first time on NIF, two-dimensional inflight radiographs of gas-filled and cryogenic fuel layered capsules have been measured to infer the symmetry of the radiation drive on the capsule. These results have been used to modify the hohlraum geometry and the wavelength tuning to improve the inflight implosion symmetry. We have also expanded our shock timing capabilities by the addition of extra mirrors inside the re-entrant cone to allow the simultaneous measurement of shock symmetry in three locations on a single shot, providing asymmetry information up to Legendre mode 4. By diagnosing the shape at nearly every step of the implosion, we estimate that shape has typically reduced fusion yield by about 50% in ignition experiments. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB I-mode is a high-performance tokamak regime characterized by the formation of a temperature pedestal and enhanced energy confinement, without an accompanying density pedestal or drop in particle and impurity transport. I-mode operation appears to have naturally occurring suppression of large Edge-Localized Modes (ELMs) in addition to its highly favorable scalings of pedestal structure and overall performance. Extensive study of the ELMy H-mode has led to the development of the EPED model, which utilizes calculations of coupled peeling-ballooning MHD modes and kinetic-ballooning mode (KBM) stability limits to predict the pedestal structure preceding an ELM crash. We apply similar tools to the structure and ELM stability of I-mode pedestals. Analysis of I-mode discharges prepared with high-resolution pedestal data from the most recent C-Mod campaign reveals favorable pedestal scalings for extrapolation to large machines-pedestal temperature scales strongly with power per particle P-net/(n) over bar (e), and likewise pedestal pressure scales as the net heating power (consistent with weak degradation of confinement with heating power). Matched discharges in current, field, and shaping demonstrate the decoupling of energy and particle transport in I-mode, increasing fueling to span nearly a factor of two in density while maintaining matched temperature pedestals with consistent levels of P-net/(n) over bar (e). This is consistent with targets for increased performance in I-mode, elevating pedestal beta(p) and global performance with matched increases in density and heating power. MHD calculations using the ELITE code indicate that I-mode pedestals are strongly stable to edge peeling-ballooning instabilities. Likewise, numerical modeling of the KBM turbulence onset, as well as scalings of the pedestal width with poloidal beta, indicates that I-mode pedestals are not limited by KBM turbulence-both features identified with the trigger for large ELMs, consistent with the observed suppression of large ELMs in I-mode.

AB We demonstrate that the occurrence of Edge-Localized-Modes (ELM) crashes does not depend only on the linear peeling-ballooning threshold, but also relies on nonlinear processes. Wave-wave interaction constrains the growth time of a mode, thus inducing a shift in the criterion for triggering an ELM crash. An ELM crash requires the P-B growth rate to exceed a critical value gamma > gamma(c), where gamma(c) is set by 1/(tau) over bar (c) and (tau) over bar (c) is the averaged mode phase coherence time. For 0 < gamma < gamma(c), P-B turbulence develops but drives enhanced turbulent transport. We also show that electron inertia dramatically changes the instability threshold when density is low. However, P-B turbulence alone cannot generate enough current transport to allow fast reconnection during an ELM crash. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB Bulk ion acceleration and particle heating during magnetic reconnection are studied in the collisionless plasma of the Magnetic Reconnection Experiment (MRX). The plasma is in the two-fluid regime, where the motion of the ions is decoupled from that of the electrons within the ion diffusion region. The reconnection process studied here is quasi-symmetric since plasma parameters such as the magnitude of the reconnecting magnetic field, the plasma density, and temperature are compatible on each side of the current sheet. Our experimental data show that the in-plane (Hall) electric field plays a key role in ion heating and acceleration. The electrostatic potential that produces the in-plane electric field is established by electrons that are accelerated near the electron diffusion region. The in-plane profile of this electrostatic potential shows a "well" structure along the direction normal to the reconnection current sheet. This well becomes deeper and wider downstream as its boundary expands along the separatrices where the in-plane electric field is strongest. Since the in-plane electric field is 3-4 times larger than the out-of-plane reconnection electric field, it is the primary source of energy for the unmagnetized ions. With regard to ion acceleration, the Hall electric field causes ions near separatrices to be ballistically accelerated toward the outflow direction. Ion heating occurs as the accelerated ions travel into the high pressure downstream region. This downstream ion heating cannot be explained by classical, unmagnetized transport theory; instead, we conclude that ions are heated by re-magnetization of ions in the reconnection exhaust and collisions. Two-dimensional (2-D) simulations with the global geometry similar to MRX demonstrate downstream ion thermalization by the above mechanisms. Electrons are also significantly heated during reconnection. The electron temperature sharply increases across the separatrices and peaks just outside of the electron diffusion region. Unlike ions, electrons acquire energy mostly from the reconnection electric field, and the energy gain is localized near the X-point. However, the increase in the electron bulk flow energy remains negligible. These observations support the assertion that efficient electron heating mechanisms exist around the electron diffusion region and that the heat generated there is quickly transported along the magnetic field due to the high parallel thermal conductivity of electrons. Classical Ohmic dissipation based on the perpendicular Spitzer resistivity is too small to balance the measured heat flux, indicating the presence of anomalous electron heating.

AB We demonstrate a high-sensitivity ultrafast emission spectrometer based on the optical Kerr effect that time resolves emission simultaneously in the ultraviolet and visible ranges. We show that using benzene as the Kerr medium leads to the optimal balance between time-resolution and sensitivity of the optical shutter with low losses due to ultraviolet absorption. Using this medium together with high contrast broadband polarizers and charge-coupled device detection, we achieve efficient detection of emission transients (bandwidth > 1.5 eV) in a time bin of similar to 500 fs. To highlight the distinctive insights that can be gained by resolving complex subpicosecond dynamics in a single experiment, we present UV-visible transient emission spectra of technologically relevant wide bandgap zinc oxide. With an enhanced broadband detection, subpicosecond effects such as thermalization, bandgap renormalization, and carrier trapping can be easily assessed, with ramifications for optoelectronics and energy-related technologies.

TI Superconducting magnetic Wollaston prism for neutron spin encoding
SO REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS

ID SCATTERING ANGLE MEASUREMENT; ECHO; FLIPPER; FILM; PERFORMANCE; DESIGN
AB A magnetic Wollaston prism can spatially split a polarized neutron beam into two beams with different neutron spin states, in a manner analogous to an optical Wollaston prism. Such a Wollaston prism can be used to encode the trajectory of neutrons into the Larmor phase associated with their spin degree of freedom. This encoding can be used for neutron phase-contrast radiography and in spin echo scattering angle measurement (SESAME). In this paper, we show that magnetic Wollaston prisms with highly uniform magnetic fields and low Larmor phase aberration can be constructed to preserve neutron polarization using high temperature superconducting (HTS) materials. The Meissner effect of HTS films is used to confine magnetic fields produced electromagnetically by current-carrying HTS tape wound on suitably shaped soft iron pole pieces. The device is cooled to similar to 30 K by a closed cycle refrigerator, eliminating the need to replenish liquid cryogens and greatly simplifying operation and maintenance. A HTS film ensures that the magnetic field transition within the prism is sharp, well-defined, and planar due to the Meissner effect. The spin transport efficiency across the device was measured to be similar to 98.5% independent of neutron wavelength and energizing current. The position-dependent Larmor phase of neutron spins was measured at the NIST Center for Neutron Research facility and found to agree well with detailed simulations. The phase varies linearly with horizontal position, as required, and the neutron beam shows little depolarization. Consequently, the device has advantages over existing devices with similar functionality and provides the capability for a large neutron beam (20 mm x 30 mm) and an increase in length scales accessible to SESAME to beyond 10 mu m. With further improvements of the external coupling guide field in the prototype device, a larger neutron beam could be employed. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

TI Robotic calibration of the motional Stark effect diagnostic on Alcator
C-Mod
SO REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS

AB The capability to calibrate diagnostics, such as the Motional Stark Effect (MSE) diagnostic, without using plasma or beam-into-gas discharges will become increasingly important on next step fusion facilities due to machine availability and operational constraints. A robotic calibration system consisting of a motorized three-axis positioning system and a polarization light source capable of generating arbitrary polarization states with a linear polarization angle accuracy of < 0.05 degrees has been constructed and has been used to calibrate the MSE diagnostic deployed on Alcator C-Mod. The polarization response of the complex diagnostic is shown to be fully captured using a Fourier expansion of the detector signals in terms of even harmonics of the input polarization angle. The system's high precision robotic control of position and orientation allow it to be used also to calibrate the geometry of the instrument's view. Combined with careful measurements of the narrow bandpass spectral filters, this system fully calibrates the diagnostic without any plasma discharges. The system's high repeatability, flexibility, and speed has been exploited to quantify several systematics in the MSE diagnostic response, providing a more complete understanding of the diagnostic performance.

AB Advanced ultrasupercritical steam conditions of up to 760 degrees C and 34.5 MPa have been investigated in various programmes around the world over the last two decades. To date, much progress has been made, and three candidate materials, namely ferritic, austenitic and nickel base superalloys, have been investigated for high temperature strength, corrosion resistance and weldability. In an earlier published paper, welding and weldability of ferritic alloys were discussed. This paper considers the unique weldability characteristics for utilisation of austenitic stainless steels in future advanced ultrasupercritical fossil power plant designs and covers topics such as fundamentals of austenitic stainless steel welds, including weldability, filler metals and dissimilar metal welds, and discusses the prognosis for this class of materials for advanced ultrasupercritical fossil fired power plants.

AB Africa is one of the less studied continents with respect to atmospheric aerosols. Savannahs are complex dynamic systems sensitive to climate and land-use changes, but the interaction of these systems with the atmosphere is not well understood. Atmospheric particles, called aerosols, affect the climate on regional and global scales, and are an important factor in air quality. In this study, measurements from a relatively clean savannah environment in South Africa were used to model new particle formation and growth. There already are some combined long-term measurements of trace gas concentrations together with aerosol and meteorological variables available, but to our knowledge this is the first detailed simulation that includes all the main processes relevant to particle formation. The results show that both of the particle formation mechanisms investigated overestimated the dependency of the formation rates on sulphuric acid. From the two particle formation mechanisms tested in this work, the approach that included low volatile organic compounds to the particle formation process was more accurate in describing the nucleation events than the approach that did not. To obtain a reliable estimate of aerosol concentration in simulations for larger scales, nucleation mechanisms would need to include organic compounds, at least in southern Africa. This work is the first step in developing a more comprehensive new particle formation model applicable to the unique environment in southern Africa. Such a model will assist in better understanding and predicting new particle formation -knowledge which could ultimately be used to mitigate impacts of climate change and air quality.

AB Anomalous microwave emission (AME) is believed to be due to electric dipole radiation from small spinning dust grains. The aim of this paper is a statistical study of the basic properties of AME regions and the environment in which they emit. We used WMAP and Planck maps, combined with ancillary radio and IR data, to construct a sample of 98 candidate AME sources, assembling SEDs for each source using aperture photometry on 1 degrees-smoothed maps from 0.408 GHz up to 3000 GHz. Each spectrum is fitted with a simple model of free-free, synchrotron (where necessary), cosmic microwave background (CMB), thermal dust, and spinning dust components. We find that 42 of the 98 sources have significant (>5 sigma) excess emission at frequencies between 20 and 60 GHz. An analysis of the potential contribution of optically thick free-free emission from ultra-compact H II regions, using IR colour criteria, reduces the significant AME sample to 27 regions. The spectrum of the AME is consistent with model spectra of spinning dust. Peak frequencies are in the range 20-35 GHz except for the California nebula (NGC1499), which appears to have a high spinning dust peak frequency of (50 +/- 17) GHz. The AME regions tend to be more spatially extended than regions with little or no AME. The AME intensity is strongly correlated with the sub-millimetre/IR flux densities and comparable to previous AME detections in the literature. AME emissivity, defined as the ratio of AME to dust optical depth, varies by an order of magnitude for the AME regions. The AME regions tend to be associated with cooler dust in the range 14-20K and an average emissivity index, beta(d), of + 1.8, while the non-AME regions are typically warmer, at 20-27 K. In agreement with previous studies, the AME emissivity appears to decrease with increasing column density. This supports the idea of AME originating from small grains that are known to be depleted in dense regions, probably due to coagulation onto larger grains. We also find a correlation between the AME emissivity (and to a lesser degree the spinning dust peak frequency) and the intensity of the interstellar radiation field, G(0). Modelling of this trend suggests that both radiative and collisional excitation are important for the spinning dust emission. The most significant AME regions tend to have relatively less ionized gas (free-free emission), although this could be a selection effect. The infrared excess, a measure of the heating of dust associated with H II regions, is typically >4 for AME sources, indicating that the dust is not primarily heated by hot OB stars. The AME regions are associated with known dark nebulae and have higher 12 mu m/25 mu m ratios. The emerging picture is that the bulk of the AME is coming from the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and small dust grains from the colder neutral interstellar medium phase.

AB We present the most extensive analysis of Fourier-based X-ray timing properties of the black hole binary Cygnus X-1 to date, based on 12 years of bi-weekly monitoring with RXTE from 1999 to 2011. Our aim is a comprehensive study of timing behavior across all spectral states, including the elusive transitions and extreme hard and soft states. We discuss the dependence of the timing properties on spectral shape and photon energy, and study correlations between Fourier-frequency dependent coherence and time lags with features in the power spectra. Our main results are: (a) The fractional rms in the 0.125-256 Hz range in different spectral states shows complex behavior that depends on the energy range considered. It reaches its maximum not in the hard state, but in the soft state in the Comptonized tail above 10 keV. (b) The shape of power spectra in hard and intermediate states and the normalization in the soft state are strongly energy dependent in the 2.1-15 keV range. This emphasizes the need for an energy-dependent treatment of power spectra and a careful consideration of energy- and mass-scaling when comparing the variability of different source types, e.g., black hole binaries and AGN. PSDs during extremely hard and extremely soft states can be easily confused for energies above similar to 5 keV in the 0.125-256 Hz range. (c) The coherence between energy bands drops during transitions from the intermediate into the soft state but recovers in the soft state. (d) The time lag spectra in soft and intermediate states show distinct features at frequencies related to the frequencies of the main variability components seen in the power spectra and show the same shift to higher frequencies as the source softens. Our results constitute a template for other sources and for physical models for the origin of the X-ray variability. In particular, we discuss how the timing properties of Cyg X-1 can be used to assess the evolution of variability with spectral shape in other black hole binaries. Our results suggest that none of the available theoretical models can explain the full complexity of X-ray timing behavior of Cyg X-1, although several ansatzes with different physical assumptions are promising.

AB Algae's high productivity provides potential resource advantages over other fuel crops. However, demand for land, water, and nutrients must be minimized to avoid impacts on food production. We apply our national-scale open-pond, growth, and resource models to assess several biomass to fuel technological pathways based on Chlorella sp. We compare resource demands between hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) and lipid extraction (LE) to meet 1.89E+10 and 7.95E+10 L yr(-1) renewable diesel targets. We estimate nutrient demands where post-fuel biomass is consumed as co-products and recycling by anaerobic digestion (AD) or catalytic hydrothermal gasification (CHG). Sites are prioritized based on fuel value relative to a set of site-specific resource costs. The highest priority sites are located along the Gulf of Mexico coast, but potential sites exist nationwide. Compared to LE, HTL reduces land requirements at least 50%, freshwater consumption at least 33%, and saline groundwater by 85%. Without recycling, nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) demand is reduced 44%, but remains significant relative to current U.S. agricultural consumption. The most nutrient-efficient pathways are LE + CHG for N and HTL + CHG for P (by 52%). Resource gains for HTL + CHG are offset by a 284% increase in N consumption relative to LE + CHG (with potential for further recycling). Nutrient recycling is essential to effective use of alternative nutrient sources. While modeling of availability and costs remains, for HTL + CHG at the 7.95E+10 L yr(-1) production target, municipal sources can offset up to 20% of N and 49% of P demand and animal manure could potentially satisfy demands.

AB In 36 climate change simulations associated with phases 3 and 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP3 and CMIP5), changes in marine low cloud cover (LCC) exhibit a large spread, and may be either positive or negative. Here we develop a heuristic model to understand the source of the spread. The model's premise is that simulated LCC changes can be interpreted as a linear combination of contributions from factors shaping the clouds' large-scale environment. We focus primarily on two factors-the strength of the inversion capping the atmospheric boundary layer (measured by the estimated inversion strength, EIS) and sea surface temperature (SST). For a given global model, the respective contributions of EIS and SST are computed. This is done by multiplying (1) the current-climate's sensitivity of LCC to EIS or SST variations, by (2) the climate-change signal in EIS or SST. The remaining LCC changes are then attributed to changes in greenhouse gas and aerosol concentrations, and other environmental factors. The heuristic model is remarkably skillful. Its SST term dominates, accounting for nearly two-thirds of the intermodel variance of LCC changes in CMIP3 models, and about half in CMIP5 models. Of the two factors governing the SST term (the SST increase and the sensitivity of LCC to SST perturbations), the SST sensitivity drives the spread in the SST term and hence the spread in the overall LCC changes. This sensitivity varies a great deal from model to model and is strongly linked to the types of cloud and boundary layer parameterizations used in the models. EIS and SST sensitivities are also estimated using observational cloud and meteorological data. The observed sensitivities are generally consistent with the majority of models as well as expectations from prior research. Based on the observed sensitivities and the relative magnitudes of simulated EIS and SST changes (which we argue are also physically reasonable), the heuristic model predicts LCC will decrease over the 21st-century. However, to place a strong constraint, for example on the magnitude of the LCC decrease, will require longer observational records and a careful assessment of other environmental factors producing LCC changes. Meanwhile, addressing biases in simulated EIS and SST sensitivities will clearly be an important step towards reducing intermodel spread in simulated LCC changes.

AB Plant cells are surrounded by a carbohydrate-rich extracellular matrix known as the cell wall. Primary cell walls are laid down around dividing and elongating cells and consist largely of the polysaccharides cellulose, hemicelluloses, and pectin along with approximately 10% protein. Specific cells such as xylem vessels and fibers lay down a secondary wall rich in cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, with lesser amounts of pectin. Most of the models depict the plant cell wall as a matrix of separate polysaccharides. However, the recent identification of a proteoglycan that contains covalently attached pectin and xylan indicates that at least some of these wall glycans exist as domains within a single glycopolymer and that current models of the wall need to be revised. Furthermore, several cell wall biosynthesis mutants, including the secondary cell wall mutant irregular xylem (irx) 8, are affected in multiple cell wall polymers making it challenging to define the biochemical function of the mutated gene. The goal of this review is to provide a background for studying genes which encode secondary cell wall biosynthetic proteins whose mutation affects multiple wall polymers including xylan and lignin. We first review the phenotypes of the irx mutants and then summarize the current understanding of the structure and synthesis of xylan and lignin along with a review of transcription factors known to affect secondary wall synthesis. This review is intended to serve as a resource for those studying genes that encode proteins involved in the synthesis of plant secondary wall lignin and xylan.

AB Cu-SSZ-13 has been shown to possess high activity and superior N-2 formation selectivity in the selective catalytic reduction of NOx under oxygen rich conditions. Here, a combination of synchrotron-based (XRD and XANES) and vibrational (DRIFTS) spectroscopy tools has been used to follow the changes in the location and coordination environment of copper ions in a Cu-SSZ-13 zeolite during calcinations, reduction with CO, and adsorption of CO and H2O. XANES spectra collected during these procedures provide critical information not only on the variation in the oxidation state of the copper species in the zeolite structure, but also on the changes in the coordination environment around these ions as they interact with the framework, and with different adsorbates (H2O and CO). Time-resolved XRD data indicate the movement of copper ions and the consequent variation of the unit cell parameters during dehydration. DRIFT spectra provide information about the adsorbed species present in the zeolite, as well as the oxidation states of and coordination environment around the copper ions. A careful analysis of the asymmetric T-O-T vibrations of the CHA framework perturbed by copper ions in different coordination environments proved to be especially informative. The results of this study will aid the identification of the location, coordination and oxidation states of copper ions obtained during in operando catalytic studies. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc.

AB Iron nanoparticles supported on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Fe-MSN) catalyze the hydrotreatment of fatty acids with high selectivity for hydrodeoxygenation over decarbonylation and hydrocracking. The catalysis is likely to involve a reverse Mars-Van Krevelen mechanism, in which the surface of iron is partially oxidized by the carboxylic groups of the substrate during the reaction. The strength of the metal-oxygen bonds that are formed affects the residence time of the reactants facilitating the successive conversion of carboxyl first into carbonyl and then into alcohol intermediates, thus dictating the selectivity of the process. The selectivity is also affected by the pretreatment of Fe-MSN, the more reduced the catalyst the higher the yield of hydrodeoxygenation product. Fe-MSN catalyzes the conversion of crude microalgal oil into diesel-range hydrocarbons. (c) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB We report experimental, theoretical and numerical results on the effects of horizontal heterogeneities on the propagation of viscous gravity currents. We use two geometries to highlight these effects: (a) a horizontal channel (or crack) whose gap thickness varies as a power-law function of the streamwise coordinate; (b) a heterogeneous porous medium whose permeability and porosity have power-law variations. We demonstrate that two types of self-similar behaviours emerge as a result of horizontal heterogeneity: (a) a first-kind self-similar solution is found using dimensional analysis (scaling) for viscous gravity currents that propagate away from the origin (a point of zero permeability); (b) a second-kind self-similar solution is found using a phase-plane analysis for viscous gravity currents that propagate toward the origin. These theoretical predictions, obtained using the ideas of self-similar intermediate asymptotics, are compared with experimental results and numerical solutions of the governing partial differential equation developed under the lubrication approximation. All three results are found to be in good agreement.

AB Thin [(x)Al2O3 + (y)TiO2] nanolaminates (NLs) films of various TiO2 and Al2O3 volume fractions were deposited on n-Si substrates at 250 degrees C using remote plasma-assisted atomic layer deposition. While the overall thickness of the dielectric was held relatively constant at similar to 16 nm, the relative ratio of Al2O3 to TiO2 in the NL was varied by changing the number of deposition cycles of each component. This permitted the evaluation of changes in the dielectric constant kappa, index of refraction N-f, optical band gap, E-g, and the electrical performance of the resulting oxides. Capacitance-voltage and current-voltage results on 100 mu m diameter circular capacitors were obtained. The data reveals that the high-content TiO2 films show limited evidence of oxide charge trapping and relatively large dielectric constants (k similar to 15) with reduced reverse-biased leakage current, whereas the high-content Al2O3 films offer a larger optical band-gap and excellent insulating character with reduced leakage currents. In addition, the authors present composition assessments of the oxides by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and electron energy loss spectroscopy.

AB The changes in direct current performance of circular-shaped AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) after Co-60 gamma-irradiation doses of 50, 300, 450, or 700 Gy were measured. The main effects on the HEMTs after irradiation were increases of both drain current and electron mobility. Compton electrons induced from the absorption of the gamma-rays appear to generate donor type defects. Drain current dispersions of similar to 5% were observed during gate lag measurements due to the formation of a virtual gate between the gate and drain resulting from the defects generated during gamma-irradiation.

AB Many Web portals allow users to associate additional information with existing multimedia resources such as images, audio, and video. However, these portals are usually closed systems and user-generated annotations are almost always kept locked up and remain inaccessible to the Web of Data. We believe that an important step to take is the integration of multimedia annotations and the Linked Data principles. We present the current state of the Open Annotation Model, explain our design rationale, and describe how the model can represent user annotations on multimedia Web resources. Applying this model in Web portals and devices, which support user annotations, should allow clients to easily publish and consume, thus exchange annotations on multimedia Web resources via common Web standards.

ID ACCIDENT
AB During the emergency response period of the accidents that took place at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant (NPP) in March of 2011, researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) conducted a number of studies using the MELCOR code to help understand what was occurring and what had occurred. During the postaccident period, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) jointly sponsored a study of the Fukushima Daiichi NPP accident with collaboration among ORNL, Sandia National Laboratories, and Idaho National Laboratory. The purpose of the study was to compile relevant data, reconstruct the accident progression using computer codes, assess the codes' predictive capabilities, and identify future data needs. The current paper summarizes some of the early MELCOR simulations and analyses conducted at ORNL of the Fukushima Daiichi NPP Unit 3 (1F3) accident. Extended analysis and discussion of the 1F3 accident are also presented taking into account new knowledge and modeling refinements made since the joint DOE-NRC study.

AB In response to the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station in Japan, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and U.S. Department of Energy agreed to jointly sponsor an accident reconstruction study as a means of assessing the severe accident modeling capability of the MELCOR code and developing an understanding of the likely accident progression. Objectives of the project included reconstruction of the accident progressions using computer models and accident data, and validation of MELCOR and the Fukushima models against plant data. In this study Sandia National Laboratories developed MELCOR 2.1 models of Fukushima Daiichi Units 1 (1F1), 2, and 3 as well as the Unit 4 spent fuel pool. This paper reports on the analysis of the 1F1 accident. Details are presented on the modeled accident progression, hypothesized mode of failures in the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) and containment pressure boundary, and release of fission products to the environment. The MELCOR-predicted RPV and containment pressure trends compare well with available measured pressures. Conditions leading up to the observed explosion of the reactor building are postulated based on this analysis where drywell head flange leakage is thought to have led to accumulation of flammable gases in the refueling bay. The favorable comparison of the results from the analyses with the data from the plant provides additional confidence in MELCOR to reliably predict real-world accident progression. The modeling effort has also provided insights into future data needs for both model development and validation.

Objectives of the project included reconstruction of the accident progressions using computer models and accident data, and validation of the MELCOR code and the Fukushima models against plant data. A MELCOR 2.1 model of the Fukushima Daiichi Unit 3 reactor is developed using plant-specific information and accident-specific boundary conditions, which involve considerable uncertainty due to the inherent nature of severe accidents. Publicly available thermal-hydraulic data and radioactivity release estimates have evolved significantly since the accidents. Such data are expected to continually change as the reactors are decommissioned and more measurements are performed. The MELCOR simulations in this work primarily use boundary conditions that are based on available plant data as of May 2012.

AB We study tear film dynamics with evaporation on a wettable eye-shaped ocular surface using a lubrication model. The mathematical model has a time-dependent flux boundary condition that models the cycles of tear fluid supply and drainage; it mimics blinks on a stationary eye-shaped domain. We generate computational grids and solve the nonlinear governing equations using the OVERTURE computational framework. In vivo experimental results using fluorescent imaging are used to visualize the influx and redistribution of tears for an open eye. Results from the numerical simulations are compared with the experiment. The model captures the flow around the meniscus and other dynamic features of human tear film observed in vivo.

TI Boussinesq approximation for Rayleigh-Taylor and Richtmyer-Meshkov

SO PHYSICS OF FLUIDS

ID INTERFACE; FLUIDS; ACCELERATION; STABILITY; AMPLITUDE; MODELS
AB We apply numerical and analytic techniques to study the Boussinesq approximation in Rayleigh-Taylor and Richtmyer-Meshkov instabilities. In this approximation, one sets the Atwood number A equal to zero except where it multiplies the acceleration g or velocity-jump Delta v. While this approximation is generally applied to low-A systems, we show that it can be applied to high-A systems also in certain regimes and to the "bubble" part of the instability, i.e., the penetration depth of the lighter fluid into the heavier fluid. It cannot be applied to the spike. We extend the Boussinesq approximation for incompressible fluids and show that it always overestimates the penetration depth but the error is never more than about 41%. The effect of compressibility is studied by analytic techniques in the linear regime which indicate that compressibility has the opposite effect and the Boussinesq approximation underestimates bubbles by about 14%. We also present direct numerical simulations of two compressible systems which have approximately the same A Delta v: a low-A air/CO2 system shocked at M-s = 1.57, and a high-A air/SF6 system shocked at M-s = 1.24. While the bubbles are approximately equal, the lower-A system has a shorter (less penetrating) spike; however, because its mushrooms are more tightly wound, the low-A system has the larger interface area.

AB Multifractal subgrid-scalemodeling embedded into a variational multiscale method is proposed for large-eddy simulation of passive-scalar mixing in turbulent incompressible flow. In this subgrid-scale modeling approach, subgrid-scale velocity and scalar field are directly approximated by amultifractal reconstruction process replicating the actual physics of turbulent flows. Problems from low to high Schmidt numbers (i.e., Sc approximate to 1 to Sc >> 1) are considered in this work. Starting from preceding work, in this study, multifractal subgrid-scale modeling is further detailed by refining the approximation process within the scalar field. Thereby, appropriate multifractal subgrid-scale modeling for passive-scalar mixing is derived in comprehensive form for the entire range of Schmidt numbers. The near-wall behavior of the multifractal subgrid-scale modeling approach is investigated for wall-bounded turbulent flows with passive-scalar mixing. The method is validated for passive-scalar mixing in turbulent channel flow for a broad range of Schmidt numbers in between 1 and 1000. Excellent performance is stated for all Schmidt numbers, in particular when comparing the results obtained with the proposed method to results provided by other methods widely used in the literature. An analysis of the subgrid-scale scalar-variance transfer highlights the influence of the multifractal subgrid-scale modeling within the variational multiscale method. The near-wall behavior of the proposed method is investigated via the transfer coefficient, for which results consistent with the theoretical correlation are obtained. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

AB We investigate the direct enstrophy cascade of two-dimensional decaying turbulence in a flowing soap film channel. We use a coarse-graining approach that allows us to resolve the nonlinear dynamics and scale-coupling simultaneously in space and in scale. From our data, we verify an exact relation due to Eyink ["Local energy flux and the refined similarity hypothesis,"J. Stat. Phys. 78, 335-351 (1995); Eyink "Exact results on scaling exponents in the 2D enstrophy cascade,"Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 38003803 (1995)] between traditional 3rd-order structure function and the enstrophy flux obtained by coarse-graining. We also present experimental evidence that enstrophy cascades to smaller (larger) scales with a 60% (40%) probability, in support of theoretical predictions by Merilees and Warn ["On energy and enstrophy exchanges in two-dimensional non-divergent flow," J. Fluid Mech. 69, 625-630 (1975)] which appear to be valid in our flow owing to the ergodic nature of turbulence. We conjecture that their kinematic arguments break down in quasi-laminar 2D flows. We find some support for these ideas by using an Eulerian coherent structure identification technique, which allows us to determine the effect of flow topology on the enstrophy cascade. A key finding is that "centers" are inefficient at transferring enstrophy between scales, in contrast to "saddle" regions which transfer enstrophy to small scales with high efficiency.

AB We rigorously derive a formula for the terminal velocity of a small bubble in a vertically vibrated viscous incompressible liquid starting from the full Navier-Stokes equations and the exact boundary conditions at the bubble surface. This formula is derived using a perturbation analysis in which the small parameter is the nondimensional amplitude of the pressure oscillation. The analysis does not assume that the bubble remains spherical but does assume that the bubble is axisymmetric. It is shown that the bubble terminal velocity can be computed to second order while computing the full solution only to first order by applying a compatibility condition on the first-order solution. To second order, the bubble terminal velocity is shown to be the net value from an upward steady term and a rectified term that can be downward or upward. The perturbation formula depends on the vibration frequency nondimensionalized by the bubble radius and the liquid kinematic viscosity. We show that our perturbation formula links two heuristically developed formulas for the rectified component, which we denote the velocity-averaged and force-averaged formulas. Our perturbation formula reproduces the velocity-averaged formula for low frequencies and the forced-averaged formula for high frequencies and varies monotonically between these limits for intermediate frequencies. We furthermore develop a high-resolution spectral code specifically to simulate this type of bubble motion. Results from this code verify that the perturbation formula is correct for infinitesimal oscillating pressure amplitudes and suggest that it provides an upper bound for finite amplitudes of the pressure oscillation.

AB We have used neutron scattering to investigate the influence of concentration on the conformation of a star polymer. By varying the contrast between the solvent and the isotopically labeled stars, we obtain the distributions of polymer and solvent within a star polymer from analysis of scattering data. A correlation between the local desolvation and the inward folding of star branches is discovered. From the perspective of thermodynamics, we find an analogy between the mechanism of polymer localization driven by solvent depletion and that of the hydrophobic collapse of polymers in solutions.

AB Nanoparticles transported through highly confined porous media exhibit faster breakthrough than small molecule tracers. Despite important technological applications in advanced materials, human health, energy, and environment, the microscale mechanisms leading to early breakthrough have not been identified. Here, we measure dispersion of nanoparticles at the single-particle scale in regular arrays of nanoposts and show that for highly confined flows of dilute suspensions of nanoparticles the longitudinal and transverse velocities exhibit distinct scaling behaviors. The distributions of transverse particle velocities become narrower and more non-Gaussian when the particles are strongly confined. As a result, the transverse dispersion of highly confined nanoparticles at low Peclet numbers is significantly less Important than longitudinal dispersion, leading to early breakthrough. This finding suggests a fundamental mechanism by which to control dispersion and thereby Improve efficacy of nanoparticles applied for advanced polymer nanocomposites, drug delivery, hydrocarbon production, and environmental remediation.

AB Metal nanoparticles exhibit unique optical characteristics in visible spectra produced by local surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for a wide range of optical and electronic applications. We report the synthesis of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) surfactant (PNIPAM-C18)-functionalized metal nanoparticles and ordered superlattice arrays through an interfacial self-assembly process. The method is simple and reliable without using complex chemistry. The PNIPAM-C18-functionalized metal nanoparticles and ordered superlattices exhibit responsive behavior modulated by external temperature and relative humidity (RH). In situ grazing-incidence small-angle X-ray scattering studies confirmed that the superlattice structure of PNIPAM-C18 surfactant-functionalized nanoparticle arrays shrink and spring back reversibly based on external thermal and RH conditions, which allow flexible manipulation of interparticle spacing for tunable SPR. PNIPAM-C18 surfactants play a key role in accomplishing this responsive property. The ease of fabrication of the responsive nanostructure facilitates investigation of nanoparticle coupling that depends on interparticle separation for potential applications In chemical and biological sensors as well as energy storage devices.

AB In this work, the operation of n- and p-type field-effect transistors (FETs) on the same WSe2 flake is realized,and a complementary logic inverter is demonstrated. The p-FET is fabricated by contacting WSe2 with a high work function metal, Pt, which facilities hole injection at the source contact. The n-FET is realized by utilizing selective surface charge transfer doping with potassium to form degenerately doped n+ contacts for electron Injection. An ON/OFF current ratio of >10(4) is achieved for both n- and p-FETs with similar ON current densities. A dc voltage gain of >12 is measured for the complementary WSe2 inverter. This work presents an important advance toward realization of complementary logic devices based on layered chalcogenide semiconductors for electronic applications.

AB We report low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy characterization of MoSe2 crystals and the fabrication and electrical characterization of MoSe2 field-effect transistors on both SiO2 and parylene-C substrates. We find that the multilayer MoSe2 devices on parylene-C show a room-temperature mobility close to the mobility of bulk MoSe2 (100-160 cm(2) V(-1)s(-1)), which is significantly higher than that on SiO2 substrates (approximate to 50 cm(2) V-1 s(-1)). The room-temperature mobility on both types of substrates are nearly thickness-independent. Our variable-temperature transport measurements reveal a metal insulator transition at a characteristic conductivity of e(2)/h. The mobility of MoSe2 devices extracted from the metallic region on both SiO2 and parylene-C increases up to approximate to 500 cm(2) V-1 s(-1) as the temperature decreases to approximate to 100 K, with the mobility of MoSe2 on SiO2 increasing more rapidly. In spite of the notable variation of charged impurities as indicated by the strongly sample-dependent low-temperature mobility, the mobility of all MoSe2 devices on SiO2 converges above 200 K, indicating that the high temperature (>200 K) mobility in these devices is nearly independent of the charged impurities. Our atomic force microscopy study of SiO2 and parylene-C substrates further rules out the surface roughness scattering as a major cause of the substrate-dependent mobility. We attribute the observed substrate dependence of MoSe2 mobility primarily to the surface polar optical phonon scattering originating from the SiO2 substrate, which is nearly absent in MoSe2 devices on parylene-C substrate.

AB This paper presents the experimental results of natural convection heat transfer for 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyliimide ([C(4)mim][NTf2]) ionic liquid (IL), in rectangular cavity with different aspect ratios. In addition to evaluating the natural convection heat transfer, thermophysical properties of [C4mim][NTf2] such as density, viscosity, heat capacity, and thermal conductivity were also experimentally measured. The results show that the density of [C(4)mim][NTf2] decreases with increased temperature within the investigated temperature range of 10-70 degrees C, the shear viscosity of IL reduces with increasing temperature in an exponential manner within temperature 10-70 degrees C. Its heat capacity increases linearly with temperature from 20 to 300 degrees C, and the thermal conductivity varies from 0.131 to 0.122 W/m K within the measured temperature range. A lower natural convection heat transfer coefficient is observed compared to that of the De-Ionized (DI) water for all aspect ratios (AR). Meanwhile, higher measured dimensionless Nusselt number is observed for the IL than that of DI water due to its lower thermal conductivity (approximately 21% of DI water) and higher viscous force. For the two aspect ratios, larger aspect ratio has higher natural convection heat transfer compared to the lower aspect ratio. Finally, the experimental results of IL for aspect ratios studied are expressed as the conventional natural convection correlation of the form of Nu = cRa(n) with different c and n values.

AB Non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) is the major pathway for repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in human cells. NHEJ is also needed for V(D)J recombination and the development of T and B cells in vertebrate immune systems, and acts in both the generation and prevention of non-homologous chromosomal translocations, a hallmark of genomic instability and many human cancers. X-ray crystal structures, cryo-electron microscopy envelopes, and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) solution conformations and assemblies are defining most of the core protein components for NHEJ: Ku70/Ku80 heterodimer; the DNA dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs); the structure-specific endonuclease Artemis along with polynucleotide kinase/phosphatase (PNKP), aprataxin and PNKP related protein (APLF); the scaffolding proteins XRCC4 and XLF (XRCC4-like factor); DNA polymerases, and DNA ligase IV (Lig IV). The dynamic assembly of multi-protein NHEJ complexes at DSBs is regulated in part by protein phosphorylation. The basic steps of NHEJ have been biochemically defined to require: (1) DSB detection by the Ku heterodimer with subsequent DNA-PKcs tethering to form the DNA-PKcs-Ku-DNA complex (termed DNA-PK), (2) lesion processing, and (3) DNA end ligation by Lig IV, which functions in complex with XRCC4 and XLF. The current integration of structures by combined methods is resolving puzzles regarding the mechanisms, coordination and regulation of these three basic steps. Overall, structural results suggest the NHEJ system forms a flexing scaffold with the DNA-PKcs HEAT repeats acting as compressible macromolecular springs suitable to store and release conformational energy to apply forces to regulate NHEJ complexes and the DNA substrate for DNA end protection, processing, and ligation.

AB Copper (Cu) metabolism is altered in rats fed diets high in molybdenum (Mo) and low in Cu. This 10-week study was carried out to examine the effects of supplemental Mo (7.5-240 mu g/g diet) on male Sprague-Dawley rats fed diets adequate in Cu (5 mu g/g diet) and to determine the susceptibility of Mo-treated animals to the environmental pollutant 3,3 ',4,4 '-tetrabromobiphenyl (TBB). After 7 weeks of dietary treatment, half of the rats in each group received a single IP injection of TBB (150 mu M/kg bw), while the other half received the corn oil vehicle. Rats sacrificed at 10 weeks showed no effects of Mo on growth, feed efficiency, or selected organ or tissue weights. Dose-dependent effects on plasma Mo (0-5.1 mu g/mL), plasma Cu (0.95-0.20 mu g/mL), and bone Cu (3.4-10 mu g/g) in control through the high dose were found. Cu sequestration in the bone of Mo-treated rats is a new finding. TBB treatment resulted in dramatic weight loss and loss of absolute organ mass. Relative organ weights were increased, except for the thymus. TBB altered the concentrations of certain amino acids. Compared to control rats, this polybrominated biphenyl congener significantly decreased plasma Cu and ceruloplasmin at higher concentrations of dietary Mo and promoted the process of plasma Cu decrease by Mo, suggesting a combined effect.

Selected reactivity of the aminomethyl substituent of 4 and 5, as well as complexation reactions of several of the compounds with lanthanide(III) ions are described. Molecular structures of three uniquely different complexes, {Pr{2-[HC(O)N(H)CH2]-6-[Ph2P(O)CH2]C5H3NO}(NO3)(3)(MeOH)}(2), {Eu{2-[(Me2N)(2)CN(H+)CH2]-6-[Ph2P(O)CH2]C5H3N(H)(+)}(NO3)(4)(OMe)} and {Er{2-[(C8H4O2)NCH2]-6-[Ph2P(O)CH2]C5H3N(O)}(NO3)(3)(MeOH)}(CH3)(2)CO, have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The observed and computationally modeled structures that employ bidentate and tridentate ligand/metal interactions are compared. These results suggest further ligand modifications that should provide improved solvent extraction reagents.

AB A challenge facing industrial control network administrators is protecting the typically large number of connected assets for which they are responsible. These cyber devices may be tightly coupled with the physical processes they control and human induced failures risk dire real-world consequences. Dynamic virtual honeypots are effective tools for observing and attracting network intruder activity. This paper presents a design and implementation for self-configuring honeypots that passively examine control system network traffic and actively adapt to the observed environment. In contrast to prior work in the field, six tools were analyzed for suitability of network entity information gathering. Ettercap, an established network security tool not commonly used in this capacity, outperformed the other tools and was chosen for implementation. Utilizing Ettercap XML output, a novel four-step algorithm was developed for autonomous creation and update of a Honeyd configuration. This algorithm was tested on an existing small campus grid and sensor network by execution of a collaborative usage scenario. Automatically created virtual hosts were deployed in concert with an anomaly behavior (AB) system in an attack scenario. Virtual hosts were automatically configured with unique emulated network stack behaviors for 92% of the targeted devices. The AB system alerted on 100% of the monitored emulated devices.

AB The proliferation of digital devices in a networked industrial ecosystem, along with an exponential growth in complexity and scope, has resulted in elevated security concerns and management complexity issues. This paper describes a novel architecture utilizing concepts of autonomic computing and a simple object access protocol (SOAP)-based interface to metadata access points (IF-MAP) external communication layer to create a network security sensor. This approach simplifies integration of legacy software and supports a secure, scalable, and self-managed framework. The contribution of this paper is twofold: 1) A flexible two-level communication layer based on autonomic computing and service oriented architecture is detailed and 2) three complementary modules that dynamically reconfigure in response to a changing environment are presented. One module utilizes clustering and fuzzy logic to monitor traffic for abnormal behavior. Another module passively monitors network traffic and deploys deceptive virtual network hosts. These components of the sensor system were implemented in C++ and PERL and utilize a common internal D-Bus communication mechanism. A proof of concept prototype was deployed on a mixed-use test network showing the possible real-world applicability. In testing, 45 of the 46 network attached devices were recognized and 10 of the 12 emulated devices were created with specific operating system and port configurations. In addition, the anomaly detection algorithm achieved a 99.9% recognition rate. All output from the modules were correctly distributed using the common communication structure.

AB A comprehensive gas puff capability is being developed on the Z pulsed power generator. We describe the methodology employed for developing a gas puff load on Z, which combines characterization and modeling of the neutral gas mass flow from a supersonic nozzle, numerical modeling of the implosion of this mass profile, and experimental evaluation of these magnetic implosions on Z. We are beginning a multiyear science program to study gas puff z-pinch physics at high current, starting with an 8-cm diameter double-shell nozzle, which delivers a column of Ar gas that is imploded by the machine's fast current pulse. The initial shots have been designed using numerical simulation with two radiation-magnetohydrodynamic codes. These calculations indicate that 1 mg/cm should provide optimal coupling to the driver and 1.6:1 middle: outer shell mass ratio will best balance the need for high implosion velocity against the need to mitigate the magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability. The models suggest 300-500-kJ Ar K-shell yield should be achievable on Z, and we report an initial commissioning shot at lower voltage in which 250 kJ was measured. Future experiments will pursue optimization of Ar and Kr K-shell X-ray sources, study fusion in deuterium gas puffs, and investigate the physics of gas puff implosions including energy coupling, instability growth, and radiation generation.

AB The objective of the field-reversed configuration heating experiment (FRCHX) is to obtain a better understanding of the fundamental scientific issues associated with high-energy density laboratory plasmas (HEDLPs) in strong, closed-field-line magnetic fields. These issues have relevance to such topics as magneto-inertial fusion, laboratory astrophysical research, and intense radiation sources, among others. To create HEDLP conditions, a field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasma of moderate density is first formed via reversed-field theta pinch. It is then translated into a cylindrical aluminum flux conserver (solid liner), where it is trapped between two magnetic mirrors and then compressed by the magnetically driven implosion of the solid liner. A requirement is that, once the FRC is stopped within the solid liner, the trapped flux inside the FRC must persist while the compression process is completed. With the present liner dimensions and implosion drive bank parameters, the total time required for implosion is similar to 25 mu s. Lifetime measurements of recent FRCHX FRCs indicate that trapped lifetimes following capture are now approaching similar to 14 mu s (and therefore, total lifetimes after formation are now approaching similar to 19 mu s). By separating the mirror and translation coil banks into two so that the mirror fields can be set lower initially, the liner compression can now be initiated 7-9 mu s before the FRC is formed. A discussion of FRC lifetime-limiting mechanisms and various experimental approaches to extending the FRC lifetime will be presented.

AB A new algorithm was developed, which reduces the self-force in particle-in-cell codes on unstructured meshes in a predictable and controllable way. This is accomplished by computing a charge density weighting function for a particle, which reproduces the Green's function solution to Poisson's equation at nodes when using a standard finite element method methodology. This provides a superior local potential and allows for particle-particle particle-mesh techniques to be used to subtract off local force contributions, including fictitious self-forces resulting in accurate long-range forces on a particle and improved local Coulomb collisions. Local physical forces are then computed using the Green's function on local particle pairs and added to the long-range forces. Results were shown with up to five orders reduction in self-force and superior intraparticle forces for two test cases.

AB Particle-in-cell (PIC) methods first made it feasible to simulate plasmas and microwave devices in two dimensions on 1960s computers. In this approach, the electromagnetic interactions between charged particles are mediated by a spatial mesh, on which currents and field are defined. The dominance of long-range forces in weakly coupled plasma means that the mesh and time-step do not have to resolve nearest neighbor interactions. Advances in algorithms and parallel computers have greatly expanded the applicability of PIC. We review this evolution, with particular emphasis on the contributions of Prof. Ned Birdsall and those he influenced.

AB The Warp code (and its framework of associated tools) was initially developed for particle-in-cell simulations of space-charge-dominated ion beams in accelerators, for heavy-ion-driven inertial fusion energy, and related experiments. It has found a broad range of applications, including nonneutral plasmas in traps, stray electron clouds in accelerators, laser-based acceleration, and the focusing of ion beams produced when short-pulse lasers irradiate foil targets. We summarize novel methods used in Warp, including: time-stepping conducive to diagnosis and particle injection; an interactive Python-Fortran-C structure that enables scripted and interactive user steering of runs; a variety of geometries (3-D x, y, z; 2-D r, z; 2-D x, y); electrostatic and electromagnetic field solvers; a cut-cell representation for internal boundaries; the use of warped coordinates for bent beam lines; adaptive mesh refinement, including a capability for time-dependent space-charge-limited flow from curved surfaces; models for accelerator lattice elements (magnetic or electrostatic quadrupole lenses, accelerating gaps, etc.) at user-selectable levels of detail; models for particle interactions with gas and walls; moment/envelope models that support sophisticated particle loading; a drift-Lorentz mover for rapid tracking through regions of strong and weak magnetic field; a Lorentz-boosted frame formulation with a Lorentz-invariant modification of the Boris mover; an electromagnetic solver with tunable dispersion and stride-based digital filtering; and a pseudospectral electromagnetic solver. Warp has proven useful for a wide range of applications, described very briefly herein. It is available as an open-source code under a BSD license. This paper describes material presented during the Prof. Charles K. (Ned) Birdsall Memorial Session of the 2013 IEEE Pulsed Power and Plasma Science Conference. In addition to our overview of the computational methods used in Warp, we summarize a few aspects of Ned's contributions to plasma simulation and to the careers of those he mentored.

AB A recently introduced algorithm for performing integrated kinetic simulations of the fast ignition approach to laser fusion is reviewed. The integrated algorithm uses a conventional fully electromagnetic relativistic particle-in-cell algorithm in vacuum and plasma up to a density well above cutoff for the incident laser, above which density the plasma is sufficiently collisional so that light waves and electron plasma waves are unimportant and a simplified physics model is justified that leads to improved computational efficiencies. Integrated comprehensive kinetic simulation of fast ignition is rendered more practical with this two-region algorithm. Professor C. K. Birdsall was a pioneer in computational plasma physics and enthusiastically championed the expansion of its use for discovery science and to simulate plasma phenomena in a wall-to-wall manner.

AB The pseudospectral analytical time-domain (PSATD) particle-in-cell algorithm solves the vacuum Maxwell's equations exactly, has no Courant time-step limit (as conventionally defined), and offers substantial flexibility in plasma and particle beam simulations. It is, however, not free of the usual numerical instabilities, including the numerical Cherenkov instability, when applied to relativistic beam simulations. This paper presents several approaches that, when combined with digital filtering, almost completely eliminate the numerical Cherenkov instability. This paper also investigates the numerical stability of the PSATD algorithm at low beam energies, drawing in many cases on the pioneering work of Prof. Ned Birdsall, in whose memory this paper is dedicated.

ID ATTILA CODE
AB According to Internationa Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) integration procurement arrangements, the installment of diagnostics in a port should not increase the shutdown dose rate (SDDR) in the port interspace area by no more than similar to 50 mu Sv/h above the baseline, assuming another 50 mu Sv/h is attributed to contribution from the port structure and other ITER in-vessel components, such that the upper SDDR limit of 100 mu Sv/h is not exceeded 10(6) s after shutdown. It was found that placing the initial design of the motional stark effect (MSE) and the charge exchange recombination spectroscopy (CXRS) in the equatorial port #3 resulted in an increase in the SDDR that far exceeded the limit. When we follow the optimization process discussed in this paper, substantial reduction in the port interspace SDDR was achieved. The results of this paper show that even when we combine the optimized CXRS and MSE diagnostics with a third glow discharge diagnostic, the excess of the SDDR over the baseline value did not exceed the allowed upper limit. This paper is based on utilizing the 3-D CAD-based ATTILA code for assessing the SDDR.

(TBR)
AB One of the main technology missions of a fusion nuclear science facility (FNSF) is to validate the performance of an integrated set of in-vessel components in prototypical fusion operating conditions prior to inclusion in demonstration and/or first-of-a-kind power plant. The FNSF developed by Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory will enable such integral testing of fusion technologies. The blanket testing and development strategy requires access for a number of test blanket modules (TBMs) and a base blanket installed in the available space surrounding the TBMs and heating/CD ports. A unique feature of the proposed strategy is that the TBMs play a key role and serve as forerunners for a more advanced version of the base blanket. The maximum achievable tritium breeding ratio (TBR), the shielding of all magnets, and the radial build definition are among the numerous design issues investigated in detail. Potential means to increase the TBR were also investigated.

AB Arsenic in soil is an important public health concern, but risk-based toxicity regulatory standards derived from laboratory studies should also consider concentrations measured away from obvious contamination (i.e., baseline concentrations that approximate natural background) to avoid unnecessary remediation burdens on society. We used soil and stream sediment samples from the USGS National Geochemical Survey to assess the spatial distribution of As over a 1.16 x 10(5) km(2) area corresponding to the state of Ohio. Samples were collected at 348 soil and 144 stream sites at locations selected to minimize anthropogenic inputs. Total As was measured by sodium peroxide fusion with subsequent dissolution using concentrated HCl and analysis using hydride-generation atomic absorption spectrometry. Arsenic in the soil and streambed samples ranged from 2.0 to 45.6 mg kg(-1). Sequential Gaussian simulation was used to map the expected concentration of As and its uncertainty. Five areas of elevated concentration, greater than the median of 10 mg kg(-1), were identified, and relationships to geologic parent materials, glacial sedimentation, and soil conditions interpreted. Arsenic concentrations <4 mg kg(-1) were rare, >10 mg kg(-1) common, and >20 mg kg(-1) not unusual for the central and west central portions of Ohio. Concentrations typically exceeded the soil As human generic screening level of 0.39 mg kg(-1), a value corresponding to an increase in cancer risk of 1 in 1,000,000 for soil ingestion. Such results call into question the utility of the USEPA and similarly low soil screening levels. The contrast between laboratory screens and concentrations occurring in nature argue for risk assessment on the basis of baseline concentrations.

AB Formation of Fe(II)-As(III) solids is suspected to limit dissolved As concentrations in anaerobic environments. Iron(II) precipitates enriched in As(III) have been observed after microbial reduction of As(V)-loaded lepidocrocite (gamma-FeOOH) and symplesite (Fe(II)(3)(As(V)O-4)(2)]center dot 8H(2)O) and upon abiotic reaction of Fe(II) with As(III). However, the conditions favorable for Fe(II)-As(III) precipitation and the long-term stability (relative to dissolution) of this phase are unknown. Here we examine the composition, local structure, and solubility of an Fe(II)-As(III) precipitate to determine environments where such a solid may form and persist. We reveal that the Fe(II)-As(III) precipitate has a composition of H7Fe4(AsO3)(5) and a log K-50 of 34 for the dissolution reaction defined as: H7Fe4(AsO3)(5) +8H(+) = 4Fe(2+) + 5H(3)AsO(3). Extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopic analysis of H7Fe4(AsO3)(5) shows that the molecular environment of Fe is dominated by edge-sharing octahedra within an Fe(OH)(2) sheet and that As is dominated by corner-sharing (AsO3)-O-III pyramids, which are consistent with previously published structures of As(III)-rich Fe(II) solids. The H7Fe4(AsO3)(5) solid has a pH-dependent solubility and requires millimolar concentrations of dissolved Fe(II) and As(III) to precipitate at pH <7.5. By contrast, alkaline conditions are more conducive to formation of H7Fe4(AsO3)(5); however, a high concentration of Fe(II) is required, which is unusual under alkaline conditions.

AB Measurement and modeling of gas flows in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) scale channels are relevant to the fundamentals of rarefied gas dynamics (RGD) and the practical design of MEMS-based flow systems and micropumps. We describe techniques for building robust, leak-free, rectangular microchannels which are relevant to micro-and nanofluidic devices, while the channels themselves are useful for fundamental RGD studies. For the first time, we report the isothermal steady flow of helium (He) gas through these channels from the continuum to the free-molecular regime in the unprecedented Knudsen range of 0.03-1000. On the high end, our value is 20-fold larger than values previously reported by Ewart et al (2007 J. Fluid Mech. 584 337-56). We accomplished this through a dual-tank accumulation technique which enabled the monitoring of very low flow rates, below 10(-14) kg s(-1). The devices were prebaked under vacuum for 24 h at 100 degrees C in order to reduce outgassing and attain high Kn. We devised fabrication methods for controlled-depth micro-gap channels using silicon for both channel ceiling and floor, thereby allowing direct comparisons to models which utilize this simplifying assumption. We evaluated the results against a closed-form expression that accurately reproduces the continuum, slip, transition, and free-molecular regimes developed partly by using the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. The observed data were in good agreement with the expression. For Kn > similar to 100, we observed minor deviations between modeled and experimental flow values. Our fabrication processes and experimental data are useful to fundamental RGD studies and future MEMS microflow devices with respect to extremely low-flow measurements, model validation, and predicting optimal designs.

AB CONSPECTUS: The importance of spin state changes in organometallic reactions is a topic of significant interest, as an increasing number of reaction mechanisms involving changes of spin state are consistently being uncovered. The potential influence of spin state changes on reaction rates can be difficult to predict, and thus this class of reactions remains among the least well understood in organometallic chemistry. Ultrafast time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectroscopy provides a powerful tool for probing the dynamics of spin state changes in organometallic catalysis, as such processes often occur on the picosecond to nanosecond time scale and can readily be monitored in the infrared via the absorptions of carbonyl reporter ligands. In this Account, we summarize recent work from our group directed toward identifying trends in reactivity that can be used to offer predictive insight into the dynamics of coordinatively unsaturated organometallic reaction intermediates.
In general, coordinatively unsaturated 16-electron (16e) singlets are able to coordinate to solvent molecules as token ligands to partially stabilize the coordinatively unsaturated metal center, whereas 16e triplets and 17-electron (17e) doublets are not, allowing them to diffuse more rapidly through solution than their singlet counterparts. Triplet complexes typically (but not always) undergo spin crossover prior to solvent coordination, whereas 17e doublets do not coordinate solvent molecules as token ligands and cannot relax to a lower spin state to do so. 16e triplets are typically able to undergo facile spin crossover to yield a 16e singlet where an associative, exothermic reaction pathway exists. The combination of facile spin crossover with faster diffusion through solution for triplets can actually lead to faster catalytic reactivity than for singlets, despite the forbidden nature of these reactions.
We summarize studies on odd-electron complexes in which 17e doublets were found to display varying behavior with regard to their tendency to react with 2-electron donor ligands to form 19-electron (19e) adducts. The ability of 19e adducts to serve as reducing agents in disproportionation reactions depends on whether the excess electron density localized at the metal center or at a ligand site. The reactivity of both 16e and 17e complexes toward a widely used organic nitroxyl radical (TEMPO) are reviewed, and both classes of complexes generally react similarly via an associative mechanism with a low barrier to these reactions.
We also describe recent work targeted at unraveling the photoisomerization mechanism of a thermal solar energy storage complex in which spin state changes were found to play a crucial role. Although a key triplet intermediate was found to be required for this photoisomerization mechanism to proceed, the details of why this triplet is formed in some complexes (those based on ruthenium) and not others (those based on iron, molybdenum, or tungsten) remains uncertain, and further exploration in this area may lead to a better understanding of the factors that influence intramolecular and excited state spin state changes.

CATHODE; STORAGE; POWDER; ALLOY
AB Next generation lithium battery materials will require a fundamental shift from those based on intercalation to elements or compounds that alloy directly with lithium. Intermetallics, for instance, can electrochemically alloy to Li4.4M (M = Si, Ge, Sn, etc.), providing order-of-magnitude increases in energy density. Unlike the stable crystal structure of intercalation materials, intermetallic-based electrodes undergo dramatic volume changes that rapidly degrade the performance of the battery. Here, the energy density of silicon is combined with the structural reversibility of an intercalation material using a silicon/metal-silicide multilayer. In operando X-ray reflectivity confirms the multilayer's structural reversibility during lithium insertion and extraction, despite an overall 3.3-fold vertical expansion. The multilayer electrodes also show enhanced long-term cyclability and rate capabilities relative to a comparable silicon thin film electrode. This intercalation behavior found by dimensionally constraining silicon's lithiation promises applicability to a wide range of conversion reactions.

AB To increase performance of organic solar cells, the optimization of the electron-accepting fullerenes has received less attention. Here, an electronic structure study of a novel covalently linked C-60-C-70-heterodimer in blend with the polymer PCDTBT (poly[9-(1-octylnonyl)-9H-carbazole-2,7-diyl]-2,5-thiophenediyl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole-4,7-diyl-2,5-thiophenediyl) is presented. Upon optical excitation of polymer: heterodimer solid films, the unpaired electron is shared between both C-60 and C-70 cages. In contrast, in the solution the electron is localized on one half of the dimer. Electronic structure calculations reveal that for the C-60-C-70-heterodimer two nearly isoenergetic minima exist, essentially the cis and trans conformers, which are separated by a thermodynamically accessible rotational barrier. In the cis conformation, the edge-to-edge distance between the two cages is ca. 4 angstrom and an unpaired electron is shared between two dimer halves, while in the trans conformation the separation between the fullerene cages is larger and favors electron localization on one half of the heterodimer. By comparison with the experimental data, it is concluded that the cis conformation is preferable in films, and the trans conformation in solution. Modification of the linking molecular bridge opens the possibility to influence the electronic properties of fullerene dimers, which in turn may have an impact on the charge carrier generation efficiency in solar cells.

AB Charge ordering and oxygen vacancy ordering are revealed in REBaMn2O6- (RE = Gd, Tb) oxides with perovskite-related structures. Electron diffraction and transmission electron microscopy results indicate a modulation of the crystal structure. The average oxidation state of Mn and the oxygen stoichiometry are determined by means of electron energy-loss spectroscopy, giving a REBaMn2O5.75 general formula. A 1:3 Mn4+:Mn3+ charge ordering model is confirmed by neutron powder diffraction, and oxygen vacancies-Mn3+ association is suggested by pair distribution function analysis. Direct imaging of the oxygen sublattice is obtained by phase image reconstruction. Location of the oxygen vacancies in the anion sublattice is achieved by analysis of the intensity of the averaged phase image. Both ionic conduction and multiferroic behavior are predicted from the crystal structures of these oxides.

AB The magnetic moments of magnetite nanoparticles are dramatically enhanced through the addition of zinc in a microbiologically driven synthesis procedure. The particles are produced through the reduction of Fe(III)-compounds containing Zn(II) by the iron reducing bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens. Results indicate a significant increase in the saturation magnetization by over 50% compared to magnetite at both room and low temperatures for relatively minor quantities of zinc substitution. A maximum saturation magnetization of nearly 100 emu g(-1) of sample is measured at room temperature. Analysis of the cation site ordering reveals a complex dependence on the Zn content, with the combined effect of Zn substitution of Fe3+ ions on tetrahedral sites, together with Fe2+ cation oxidation, leading to the observed magnetization enhancement for low Zn doping levels. The improved magnetic properties give superior performance in MRI applications with an MRI contrast enhancement among the largest values reported, being more than 5 times larger than a commercial contrast agent (Feridex) measured under identical conditions. The synthesis technique applied here involves an environmentally benign route and offers the potential to tune the magnetic properties of magnetic nanoparticles, with increased overall magnetization desirable for many different commercial applications.

AB Synthesis of a class of exotic interfaced dimers with high asymmetries in terms of composition, morphology, structure (solid versus hollow), and dimension of the individual nanoscale components in the dimers is successfully accomplished. Typical examples include the interfaced dimers made of solid Au nanoparticles and hollow bimetallic nanoshells with different compositions, such as Au/Ag, Pt/Ag, and Pd/Ag. The success of the synthesis relies on the combination of asymmetric overgrowth of Ag nanodomains on the partially passivated Au nanoparticles and a following galvanic replacement reaction between the Ag nanodomains and appropriate noble metal precursors. The entire synthesis is processed on the unique superparamagnetic colloidal substrates that offer many advantages, such as time-efficiency, scalability, and high yield. The Au nanoparticle and the bimetallic nanoshell in each interfaced dimer are in direct contact, resulting in the possible strong coupling between them as well as novel properties that cannot be observed in either the nanoparticle or the nanoshell. For example, dimers made of Au nanoparticles and Pd/Ag nanoshells exhibit enhanced catalytic performance toward Suzuki coupling reactions under illumination of visible light because the strong surface plasmon resonances in the Au nanoparticles can influence the catalytic activity of the Pd/Ag nanoshells through coupling between the nanoparticles and the nanoshells.

AB The increase of the band gap in Zn1-xMgxO alloys with added Mg facilitates tunable control of the conduction band alignment and the Fermi-level position in oxide-heterostructures. However, the maximal conductivity achievable by doping decreases considerably at higher Mg compositions, which limits practical application as a wide-gap transparent conductive oxide. In this work, first-principles calculations and material synthesis and characterization are combined to show that the leading cause of the conductivity decrease is the increased formation of acceptor-like compensating intrinsic defects, such as zinc vacancies (V-Zn), which reduce the free electron concentration and decrease the mobility through ionized impurity scattering. Following the expectation that non-equilibrium deposition techniques should create a more random distribution of oppositely charged dopants and defects compared to the thermodynamic limit, the paring between dopant Ga-Zn and intrinsic defects V-Zn is studied as a means to reduce the ionized impurity scattering. Indeed, the post-deposition annealing of Ga-doped Zn0.7Mg0.3O films grown by pulsed laser deposition increases the mobility by 50% resulting in a conductivity as high as sigma = 475 S cm(-1)

AB As a persistent organic contaminant, perfluorooctanesulphonic acid (PFOS) has been widely detected in the environment, wildlife, and humans. The present study revealed that zebrafish embryos exposed to 16 mu M PFOS during a sensitive window of 48-96 hour post-fertilization (hpf) disrupted larval morphology at 120 hpf. Malformed zebrafish larvae were characterized by uninflated swim bladder, less developed gut, and curved spine. Histological and ultrastructural examination of PFOS-exposed larvae showed structural alterations in swim bladder and gut. Whole genome microarray was used to identify the early transcripts dysregulated following exposure to 16 mu M PFOS at 96 hpf. In total, 1278 transcripts were significantly misexpressed (p < 0.05) and 211 genes were changed at least two-fold upon PFOS exposure in comparison to the vehicle-exposed control group. A PFOS-induced network of perturbed transcripts relating to swim bladder and gut development revealed that misexpression of genes were involved in organogenesis. Taken together, early life stage exposure to PFOS perturbs various molecular pathways potentially resulting in observed defects in swim bladder and gut development. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

AB This work presents a detailed review and comparative analysis of the process design and economics of n-butanol production using corn grain and corn stover. This includes reviewing the most recent n-butanol technologies; demonstrating the impact of key parameters (e.g. plant capacity, raw material pricing, yield) on the overall n-butanol process economics; and comparing how cellulosic biomass conversion technologies and challenges differ from traditional sugar-based n-butanol conversion technology. A major challenge of n-butanol production is the low n-butanol yield (compared to ethanol), resulting in higher production costs. However, recent research efforts have achieved significant yield improvements using a combination of genetic engineering, fermentation techniques, and integrated process development using continuous fermentation with online stripping to remove n-butanol during fermentation. This study presents the advances in n-butanol research for both sugar-based (corn) and cellulosic (corn stover) feedstocks, and also provides a comparison of overall process technologies and process economics. In addition, the results of a sensitivity analysis comparing various technologies, sugar yields, and coproduct distributions are discussed in order to provide research guidance.

AB The present study focuses on identification and micro-structural characterization of the hydration products formed in high-volume fly ash (HVFA)/portland cement (PC) systems using monochromatic scanning x-ray micro-diffraction (mu-SXRD) and SEM-EDS. Pastes with up to 80% fly ash replacement were studied. Phase maps for HVFA samples using mu-SXRD patterns prove that mu-SXRD is an effective method to identify and visualize the distribution of phases in the matrix. mu-SXRD and SEM-EDS analysis shows that the C-S-H formed in HVFA system containing 50% or more of fly ash has a similar structure as C-S-H(1) with comparatively lower Ca/Si ratio than the one produced in PC system. Moreover, coexistence of C-S-H(1) and stratlingite is observed in the system containing 80% of fly ash, confirming that the amount of alumina and silicate phases provided by the fly ash is a major factor for the formation of C-S-H(I) and stratlingite in HVFA system.

AB A combination of advanced characterization techniques: synchrotron X-ray micro- and nanotomography, micro-X-ray fluorescence, and micro-XRD have been used to characterize a commercial spent equilibrium fluid catalytic cracking catalyst (ECAT) at both the ensemble and individual particle level. At the ensemble level, X-ray microtomography was used to determine the average size, shape, and respective distributions of over 1200 individual catalyst particles. This information is important to determine performance in commercial operation. It is shown that a large fraction of the particles contained large internal voids (5-80m diameter), and these voids likely aid the accessibility for large hydrocarbon molecules. At the individual particle level, by using X-ray nanotomography, these voids were visualized at a much smaller scale (approximate to 100nm-12m in diameter). In addition, the individual phases that are present in the particle, for example, TiO2 and clay, are readily visualized in 3D. Micro-X-ray fluorescence (XRF) was used to map, and semiquantitatively determine, both the contaminant (Ni, V, Fe) and inherent (La) catalyst elemental distributions. The distribution of zeoliteY in the ECAT particle was inferred from the La XRF map. Micro-XRD determined the lattice constant of the zeoliteY at the individual catalyst particle level. This in-depth characterization study at the ensemble and individual ECAT particle level presents a robust methodology that provides an understanding of the ECAT at both the micro- and nanometer scales.

AB Functionalized graphene sheets (FGSs) comprise a unique member of the carbon family, demonstrating excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical strength. However, the detailed chemical composition of this material is still unclear. Herein, we take advantage of the fluorination process to semiquantitatively probe the defects and functional groups on graphene surface. Functionalized graphene sheets are used as substrate for low-temperature (<150 degrees C) direct fluorination. The fluorine content has been modified to investigate the formation mechanism of different functional groups such as CF, CF2, OCF2 and (CO)F during fluorination. The detailed structure and chemical bonds are simulated by density functional theory (DFT) and quantified experimentally by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The electrochemical properties of fluorinated graphene are also discussed extending the use of graphene from fundamental research to practical applications.

To evaluate the Coulombic interaction in the oriented attachment growth of tetragonal nanorods, we analyze the correlation between the Coulombic interaction and the important growth parameters, including: nanoparticle-nanorod separation, aspect ratio of the nanorods, and surface charge density. Our work opens up the opportunity to investigate interparticle interactions in the oriented attachment growth of tetragonal nanorods.

AB Applications running on leadership platforms are more and more bottlenecked by storage input/output (I/O). In an effort to combat the increasing disparity between I/O throughput and compute capability, we created Adaptable IO System (ADIOS) in 2005. Focusing on putting users first with a service oriented architecture, we combined cutting edge research into new I/O techniques with a design effort to create near optimal I/O methods. As a result, ADIOS provides the highest level of synchronous I/O performance for a number of mission critical applications at various Department of Energy Leadership Computing Facilities. Meanwhile ADIOS is leading the push for next generation techniques including staging and data processing pipelines. In this paper, we describe the startling observations we have made in the last half decade of I/O research and development, and elaborate the lessons we have learned along this journey. We also detail some of the challenges that remain as we look toward the coming Exascale era. Copyright (c) 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB The post-translational modification of DNA repair and checkpoint proteins by ubiquitin and small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) critically orchestrates the DNA damage response (DDR). The ubiquitin ligase RNF4 integrates signaling by SUMO and ubiquitin, through its selective recognition and ubiquitination of SUMO-modified proteins. Here, we define a key new determinant for target discrimination by RNF4, in addition to interaction with SUMO. We identify a nucleosome-targeting motif within the RNF4 RING domain that can bind DNA and thereby enables RNF4 to selectively ubiquitinate nucleosomal histones. Furthermore, RNF4 nucleosome-targeting is crucially required for the repair of TRF2-depleted dysfunctional telomeres by 53BP1-mediated non-homologous end joining.

AB Improving the energy efficiency of building stock, commercial equipment, and household appliances can have a major positive impact on energy use, carbon emissions, and building services. Sub-national regions such as the U.S. states wish to increase energy efficiency, reduce carbon emissions, or adapt to climate change. Evaluating sub-national policies to reduce energy use and emissions is difficult because of the large uncertainties in socioeconomic factors, technology performance and cost and energy and climate policies. Climate change itself may undercut such policies. However, assessing all of the uncertainties of large-scale energy and climate models by performing thousands of model runs can be a significant modeling effort with its accompanying computational burden. By applying fractional-factorial methods to the GCAM-USA 50-state integrated-assessment model in the context of a particular policy question, this paper demonstrates how a decision-focused sensitivity analysis strategy can greatly reduce computational burden in the presence of uncertainty and reveal the important drivers for decisions and more detailed uncertainty analysis.

AB Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been demonstrated as a viable option for reducing carbon emissions to the atmosphere. We consider a situation where a tax on emissions is imposed on carbon dioxide (CO2) producers to encourage their participation in CCS. Operators of CO2 transportation pipelines and storage sites enter into individual contracts with emissions producers to store CO2. We study the problem of selecting the optimal price and volume of these contracts under both cost and emissions uncertainty to optimize the storage operators expected profit. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

TI Evaluate Impact of Catalyst Type on Oil Yield and Hydrogen Consumption
from Mild Hydrotreating
SO ENERGY & FUELS
LA English
DT Article
ID FAST PYROLYSIS OIL; BIO-OIL; ACID; MODEL
AB Bio-oil derived by fast pyrolysis of biomass represents a potentially attractive source of hydrocarbon transportation fuels. Raw bio-oil, however, is unsuitable for application as a fuel due primarily to high organic oxygen content, which imparts a number of undesirable properties including high acidity and low stability. These problems can be overcome by catalytic hydrodeoxygenation; however, removing oxygen to very low levels by hydrotreating carries a strong economic penalty. Mild hydrotreating (where moderate levels of deoxygenation take place) coupled with coprocessing in a petroleum refinery represents an alternative to deep hydrotreating which may improve the economics of manufacture of hydrocarbon transportation fuels from biomass. This study reports on the effect of catalyst type on the quality of bio-oil produced via mild hydrotreating in a semibatch reactor at three severities. Sulfided Ni-Mo/Al2O3, Pd/C(activated), Pd/char, Pt/char, and Ru/char were compared. Speciation of oxygen functional groups in distillate and bottom products was carried out, and the form of much of the organic oxygen was determined. These results show that a 55% conversion of the carbon in the biomass pyrolysis oil to a low-oxygen (5%), low-acid, volatile, hydrocarbon-miscible liquid product can be achieved. This was, however, possible only with the NiMo-S catalyst. The precious-metal catalysts while producing oil with acceptable carbon conversion, miscibility, and oxygen content did not convert enough acid to produce oil with acid numbers below 15. Water washing was successfully tested for removing residual acids. The various catalysts have different advantages, and using a different catalyst for the two stages of the process may provide the best process-for example ruthenium for minimizing coke during stabilization and nickel or platinum for deoxygenation.

AB Primary alcohols (ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol) derived from biomass offer a sustainable fuel source that can improve efficiency while reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. However, the performance of these primary alcohols in spark-ignited engines is relatively unknown. In this work, the performance of primary alcohols was experimentally determined using the research octane number (RON) and the blending research octane number (BRON). The primary alcohol mixture, or "AlcoMix," consists of 75% ethanol, 11% 1-propanol, 8% 1-butanol, and 6% 1-pentanol and was approved by the U.S. EPA for use in blending with gasoline. This mixture is the probable outcome of the thermochemical conversion of biomass using Fischer-Tropsch chemistry with synthesis gas. The purpose of this research was to determine whether AlcoMix might be a suitable replacement for ethanol in fuel blending as an antiknock blending component for spark-ignited engines. As an indicative measure of knock resistance, the RONs of AlcoMix and ethanol were estimated using a modified, validated method in a CFR engine. The antiknock properties of AlcoMix as a blending component in gasoline were determined by estimating the BRON. The results show that the measured RON of the individual primary alcohols closely match published values. Additionally, the RON and BRON of the primary alcohol mixture nearly match those of ethanol. These results indicate that the primary alcohol mixture produced by thermochemical processes could be used as a substitute for ethanol as a primary fuel or as an antiknock blending component.

AB Injection of anthropogenic carbon dioxide into geologic formations is a technology that can be deployed in the relatively short term in order to avoid potential harm to the environment caused by excess CO2 in the atmosphere. Success of sequestering CO2 in underground reservoirs is strongly dependent on the prevention of leakage back into the atmosphere and the ability to mitigate should significant leakage occur. Both detection of leakage and reliable risk mitigation plans require a robust monitoring system. The space and time span of CO2 sequestration projects is large, which results in trade-offs between cost and robustness of monitoring. In order to make a cost-effective decision without compromising monitoring effectiveness, knowledge of CO2 transport in the vadose zone and seepage mechanisms into the atmosphere is essential. This study focuses on the simulations of hypothetical CO2 leakage into the approximate to 100m thick vadose zone at an actual site in the San Juan Basin, the United States. Hypothetical leaks were assumed to occur through abandoned wellbores whose integrity had been compromised below the water table. Results show that, at the leak rates analyzed, CO2 did not express itself at the wellhead for extended periods due to the extremely thick vadose zone. It was also seen that even after decades of simulated leakage, point measurements of CO2 flux into the atmosphere may not reach levels distinguishable from the background. The regional seepage pattern, however, is both measurable and distinguishable. This finding can be used for designing cost-effective and robust near-surface monitoring networks and algorithms.

AB Polyoxoniobates are exceptional amongst polyoxometalates in that they can potentially perform base catalysis in water, a process in which a proton is bonded to an oxo ligand, and a hydroxyl is released. Catalytic decomposition of chemical warfare agents such as organofluorophosphates that were used recently in the infamous civilian attacks in Syria is one opportunity to employ this process. Upon evaluation of the polyoxoniobate Lindqvist ion, [Nb6O19](8-), fast neutralization kinetics was discovered for the breakdown of the nerve agent simulant diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP). The polyoxoniobates were also tested against the nerve agents Sarin (GB) and Soman (GD). It was determined that different Lindqvist countercations (Li, K, or Cs) affect the rate of decomposition of the organophosphate compounds in both aqueous media (homogeneous reaction), and in the solid state (heterogeneous reaction). Small-angle X-ray scattering analysis of solutions of the Li, K, and Cs salts of [Nb6O19](8-) for concentrations at which the experiments were performed revealed distinct differences that could be linked to their relative reaction rates. This study represents the first demonstration of exploiting the unique alkaline reactivity of polyoxoniobates for nerve agent decontamination.

AB The genome sequence of the organohalide-respiring bacterium Dehalogenimonas lykanthroporepellensBL-DC-9(T) contains numerous loci annotated as reductive dehalogenase homologous (rdh) genes based on inferred protein sequence identity with functional dehalogenases of other bacterial species. Many of these genes are truncated, lack adjacent regulatory elements, or lack cognate genes coding for membrane-anchoring proteins typical of the functionally characterized active reductive dehalogenases of organohalide-respiring bacteria. To investigate the expression patterns of the rdh genes in D.lykanthroporepellensBL-DC-9(T), oligonucleotide primers were designed to uniquely target 25 rdh genes present in the genome as well as four putative regulatory genes. RNA extracts from cultures of strain BL-DC-9(T) actively dechlorinating three different electron acceptors, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,2-dichloropropane, and 1,2,3-trichloropropane were reverse-transcribed and subjected to PCR amplification using rdh-specific primers. Nineteen rdh gene transcripts, including 13 full-length rdhA genes, six truncated rdhA genes, and five rdhA genes having cognate rdhB genes were consistently detected during the dechlorination of all three of the polychlorinated alkanes tested. Transcripts from all four of the putative regulatory genes were also consistently detected. Results reported here expand the diversity of bacteria known to simultaneously transcribe multiple rdh genes and provide insights into the transcription factors associated with rdh gene expression.

AB Thermophilic microorganisms are attractive candidates for conversion of lignocellulose to biofuels because they produce robust, effective, carbohydrate-degrading enzymes and survive under harsh bioprocessing conditions that reflect their natural biotopes. However, no naturally occurring thermophile is known that can convert plant biomass into a liquid biofuel at rates, yields and titers that meet current bioprocessing and economic targets. Meeting those targets requires either metabolically engineering solventogenic thermophiles with additional biomass-deconstruction enzymes or engineering plant biomass degraders to produce a liquid biofuel. Thermostable enzymes from microorganisms isolated from diverse environments can serve as genetic reservoirs for both efforts. Because of the sheer number of enzymes that are required to hydrolyze plant biomass to fermentable oligosaccharides, the latter strategy appears to be the preferred route and thus has received the most attention to date. Thermophilic plant biomass degraders fall into one of two categories: cellulosomal (i.e. multienzyme complexes) and noncellulosomal (i.e. free' enzyme systems). Plant-biomass-deconstructing thermophilic bacteria from the genera Clostridium (cellulosomal) and Caldicellulosiruptor (noncellulosomal), which have potential as metabolic engineering platforms for producing biofuels, are compared and contrasted from a systems biology perspective.

AB The purpose of this study was to perform a biomechanics-based assessment of body borne load during the walk-to-run transition and steady-state running because historical research has limited load carriage assessment to prolonged walking. Fifteen male military personnel had trunk and lower limb biomechanics examined during these locomotor tasks with three different load configurations (light, similar to 6 kg, medium, similar to 20 kg, and heavy, similar to 40 kg). Subject-based means of the dependent variables were submitted to repeated measures ANOVA to test the effects of load configuration. During the walk-to-run transition, the hip decreased (P = 0.001) and knee increased (P = 0.004) their contribution to joint power with the addition of load. Additionally, greater peak trunk (P = 0.001), hip (P = 0.001), and knee flexion (P < 0.001) moments and trunk flexion (P < 0.001) angle, and reduced hip (P = 0.001) and knee flexion (P = 0.001) posture were evident during the loaded walk-to-run transition. Body borne load had no significant effect (P > 0.05) on distribution of lower limb joint power during steady-state running, but increased peak trunk (P < 0.001), hip (P = 0.001), and knee (P = 0.001) flexion moments, and trunk flexion (P < 0.001) posture were evident. During the walk-to-run transition the load carrier may move joint power production distally down the kinetic chain and adopt biomechanical profiles to maintain performance of the task. The load carrier, however, may not adopt lower limb kinematic adaptations necessary to shift joint power distribution during steady-state running, despite exhibiting potentially detrimental larger lower limb joint loads. As such, further study appears needed to determine how load carriage impairs maximal locomotor performance. Published by Elsevier B.V

AB This paper explores the governance options surrounding geoengineering-the deliberate, large-scale manipulation of the Earth's climate system to counteract climate change. The authors focus solely on methods that affect the incoming solar radiation to the atmosphere, referred to as solar radiation management (SRM). They examine whether an international governance framework for SRM is needed, how it should be designed, and whether it is feasible. The authors propose a governance regime that initially has small membership and weak legalization, and is flexible in that future institutional reforms allow for broader membership and deeper commitments. The article provides supporting evidence for key aspects of the regime through past international treaties in arms control and environmental protection, including the Antarctica, Outer Space, and Montreal Protocol treaty regimes. For these cases, acting early and treating the respective problems as part of the "regulation of unexplored territory" produced more effective outcomes than the "national appropriation" approach that characterizes arms control.

ID HEARTBEAT DETECTION
AB In this paper, we have built and tested a mixerless sub-terahertz (sub-THz) Doppler radar consisting of just a continuous wave (CW) source and a Schottky diode intensity detector based on optical interferometry technique. The reference arm features an oscillating mirror to modulate the low-frequency-band (LFB) Doppler signature to the high-frequency-band (HFB) centered at the reference arm frequency. The reference arm frequency needs to oscillate at a frequency that is higher than twice the Doppler frequency of the object to avoid overlapping of the LFB and HFB signals. Rigorous mathematical formulas have been derived to solve for both the amplitude and the unambiguous phase of the Doppler signal, by using both LFB and HFB signals. The unwrapped phase can be obtained in two ways: a simply phase unwrapping process and a universal fitting process. The Doppler frequency signature of a moving object can be obtained from the Fourier transform of the phase. Computer simulation was first used to show the validity of the derived mathematical formulas. Then a prototype at 0.15 THz was built and tested using a ball pendulum as target. Experimental scenarios for phase span of less than and greater than were studied. The measured amplitude and phase have been shown to agree well with the set up experimental parameters.

AB While models for conductivity in the terahertz regime are improving, there is limited data on the effects of submicrometer roughness features on conductivity. We present direct measurements of the effective conductivity of samples with periodic controlled roughness features using an open quasi-optical resonator at 400 and 650 GHz. The empirical results are compared with two closed-form models and a finite-element simulation. We find that the Mie-scattering-based model and finite-element approach are more accurate for samples that are smooth relative to the skin depth. For surface features greater than the skin depth, we found the Hammerstad and Bekkadal model to be a better predictor of effective conductivity. The observed discrepancies identify the need for further advances in theoretical understanding of the underlying physics. The empirical results of this study can be used to benchmark new and improved models of effective conductivity in the terahertz regime.

TI Side-band algorithm for automatic wind turbine gearbox fault detection

SO IET RENEWABLE POWER GENERATION
LA English
DT Article
AB Improving the availability of wind turbines is critical for minimising the cost of wind energy, especially offshore. The development of reliable and cost-effective gearbox condition monitoring systems (CMSs) is of concern to the wind industry, because the gearbox downtime has a significant effect on the wind turbine availabilities. Timely detection and diagnosis of developing gear defects is essential for minimising an unplanned downtime. One of the main limitations of most current CMSs is the time consuming and costly manual handling of large amounts of monitoring data, therefore automated algorithms would be welcome. This study presents a fault detection algorithm for incorporation into a commercial CMS for automatic gear fault detection and diagnosis. Based on the experimental evidence from the Durham Condition Monitoring Test Rig, a gear condition indicator was proposed to evaluate the gear damage during non-stationary load and speed operating conditions. The performance of the proposed technique was then successfully tested on signals from a full-size wind turbine gearbox that had sustained gear damage, and had been studied in a National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL) programme. The results show that the proposed technique proves efficient and reliable for detecting gear damage. Once implemented into the wind turbine CMSs, this algorithm can automate the data interpretation, thus reducing the quantity of the information that the wind turbine operators must handle.

AB For low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) modules targeting radio frequency applications, a near 0ppm/degrees C temperature coefficient of resonant frequency ((f)) ensures temperature stability of embedded filters. The base dielectrics of most commercial LTCC systems have a (f) in the range -50 to -80ppm/degrees C. By integrating co-fireable compensating dielectrics with an opposite (f) to that of the host dielectric, we demonstrated multilayer stripline (SL) bandpass filters with a (f) approaching 0ppm/degrees C using DuPont 951 LTCC. The effective dielectric constant of the SL in multilayer LTCC with dissimilar layered dielectrics was calculated using a variational method with transmission-line technique.

AB Carbon dioxide (CO2) will reach the storage formation at a temperature lower than that of the reservoir, especially for high flow rates. Thus, thermo-mechanical effects might jeopardize the caprock mechanical stability and cause induced seismicity. We perform thermo-hydro-mechanical simulations of cold (liquid) CO2 injection and analyze the impacts on the rock mechanical stability during a 30 year injection period. Injection of cold CO2 develops a cold region around the injection well that induces a thermal stress reduction in the reservoir due to its contraction. Stress redistribution, which occurs to satisfy stress equilibrium and displacement compatibility, causes the horizontal total stress to increase in the lower portion of the caprock. The thermal stress reduction in the reservoir decreases its stability when injecting a constant mass flow rate through a vertical well in normal faulting stress regimes. Such decrease in stability, if sufficiently large, might cause induced seismicity as well as enhancing reservoir permeability and injectivity. However, the caprock tightens due to the increase in horizontal total stress, improving its stability. After a significant improvement in caprock stability during the first years of injection, stability decreases gradually for longer injection times, but the stress state remains more stable than prior to injection, even for stiff caprocks. By contrast, in a reverse faulting stress regime, both the reservoir and the caprock are less stable during the first years of injection, but stability improves subsequently. On the other hand, injecting cold CO2 at a constant mass flow rate through a horizontal well does not significantly affect the caprock stability for the scenarios considered in this study (in both normal and reverse faulting stress regimes). We show that accounting for the thermal expansion of the grains is very important in low porosity formations to avoid simulating artificial porosity and total stress reductions in the cooled region of the caprock that yield unreal high mobilized friction angles in the lower part of the caprock in normal faulting stress regimes. Overall, injecting cold CO2 should not be feared because of the thermal stresses reduction, though care should be taken to avoid excessive induced seismicity. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB In this paper, we present model simulations of ground motions caused by CO2-injection-induced fault reactivation and analyze the results in terms of the potential for damage to ground surface structures and nuisance to the local human population. It is an integrated analysis from cause to consequence, including the whole chain of processes starting from earthquake inception in the subsurface, wave propagation toward the ground surface, and assessment of the consequences of ground vibration. For a small magnitude (M-w = 3) event at a hypocenter depth of about 1000 m, we first used the simulated ground-motion wave train in an inverse analysis to estimate source parameters (moment magnitude, rupture dimensions and stress drop), achieving good agreement and thereby verifying the modeling of the chain of processes from earthquake inception to ground vibration. We then analyzed the ground vibration results in terms of peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV) and frequency content, with comparison to U.S. Geological Survey's instrumental intensity scales for earthquakes and the U.S. Bureau of Mines' vibration criteria for cosmetic damage to buildings, as well as human-perception vibration limits. Our results confirm the appropriateness of using PGV (rather than PGA) and frequency for the evaluation of potential ground-vibration effects on structures and humans from shallow injection-induced seismic events. For the considered synthetic M-w = 3 event, our analysis showed that the short duration, high frequency ground motion may not cause any significant damage to surface structures, but would certainly be felt by the local population.

AB We present here a report produced by a workshop on Addressing failures in exascale computing' held in Park City, Utah, 4-11 August 2012. The charter of this workshop was to establish a common taxonomy about resilience across all the levels in a computing system, discuss existing knowledge on resilience across the various hardware and software layers of an exascale system, and build on those results, examining potential solutions from both a hardware and software perspective and focusing on a combined approach. The workshop brought together participants with expertise in applications, system software, and hardware; they came from industry, government, and academia, and their interests ranged from theory to implementation. The combination allowed broad and comprehensive discussions and led to this document, which summarizes and builds on those discussions.

AB The adoption of hybrid CPU-GPU nodes in traditional supercomputing platforms such as the Cray-XK6 opens acceleration opportunities for electronic structure calculations in materials science and chemistry applications, where medium-sized generalized eigenvalue problems must be solved many times. These eigenvalue problems are too small to effectively solve on distributed systems, but can benefit from the massive computing power concentrated on a single-node, hybrid CPU-GPU system. However, hybrid systems call for the development of new algorithms that efficiently exploit heterogeneity and massive parallelism of not just GPUs, but of multicore/manycore CPUs as well. Addressing these demands, we developed a generalized eigensolver featuring novel algorithms of increased computational intensity (compared with the standard algorithms), decomposition of the computation into fine-grained memory aware tasks, and their hybrid execution. The resulting eigensolvers are state-of-the-art in high-performance computing, significantly outperforming existing libraries. We describe the algorithm and analyze its performance impact on applications of interest when different fractions of eigenvectors are needed by the host electronic structure code.

AB The FLASH code has evolved into a modular and extensible scientific simulation software system over the decade of its existence. During this time it has been cumulatively used by over a thousand researchers to investigate problems in astrophysics, cosmology, and in some areas of basic physics, such as turbulence. Recently, many new capabilities have been added to the code to enable it to simulate problems in high-energy density physics. Enhancements to these capabilities continue, along with enhancements enabling simulations of problems in fluid-structure interactions. The code started its life as an amalgamation of already existing software packages and sections of codes developed independently by various participating members of the team for other purposes. The code has evolved through a mixture of incremental and deep infrastructural changes. In the process, it has undergone four major revisions, three of which involved a significant architectural advancement. Along the way, a software process evolved that addresses the issues of code verification, maintainability, and support for the expanding user base. The software process also resolves the conflicts arising out of being in development and production simultaneously with multiple research projects, and between performance and portability. This paper describes the process of code evolution with emphasis on the design decisions and software management policies that have been instrumental in the success of the code. The paper also makes the case for a symbiotic relationship between scientific research and good software engineering of the simulation software.

AB The variability of rainfall and drop size distributions (DSDs) as a function of large-scale atmospheric conditions and storm characteristics is investigated using measurements from the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM) facility at Darwin, Australia. Observations are obtained from an impact disdrometer with a near continuous record of operation over five consecutive wet seasons (2006-11). Bulk rainfall characteristics are partitioned according to diurnal accumulation, convective and stratiform precipitation classifications, objective monsoonal regime, and MJO phase. Findings support previous Darwin studies suggesting a significant diurnal and DSD parameter signal associated with both convective-stratiform and wet season monsoonal regime classification. Negligible MJO phase influence is determined for cumulative disdrometric statistics over the Darwin location.

AB A novel catalyst consisting of gold nanoparticles supported on an uncalcined (with template in) titanium silicalite-1 (Au/U-TS-1) and having a very long (similar to 10-20 h) and unique activation period for gas-phase propylene epoxidation in the presence of H-2 and O-2 is reported. Propylene oxide (PO) rate per gram of catalyst, H2 selectivity, and BET apparent surface area of the catalyst were all found to increase during the course of activation, indicating that the number of the active sites in the Au/U-TS-1 for the PO reaction increased together with the formation of nanopores near the surface of the U-TS-1. The activated Au/U-TS-1 catalysts showed high stability and slightly higher H-2 selectivity (similar to 40% vs. similar to 25%) relative to their TS-1 counterparts at the same gold loading similar to 0.04 wt%. Comparison of transient kinetic responses of the PO rate for the Au/U-TS-1 samples pretreated in different environments suggests that in situ hydrogen peroxide generated from O-2 and H-2 over the Au sites is the cause of template removal. The average gold particle sizes of the Au/U-TS-1 samples tested at different periods of time-on-stream (1, 7, 58 h) at similar to 200 degrees C were all found to be similar to 5-6 nm. Since (1) larger gold particles (>2 nm) have been found to be less active for the PO reaction in the Au/TS-1 system, (2) the average gold particle size does not correlate with the increasing PO rate during the course of the catalyst activation, and (3) there was an unexpectedly high surface Au/Si content (determined by XPS) for a spent Au/U-TS-1 sample with a low density of gold nanoparticles and large gold particles (similar to 5-6 nm), we propose that the migration of gold species into the in situ formed nanopores generates the active sites (Au-Ti) for the PO reaction in the sublayer of the U-TS-1 surface, resulting in the long induction time observed in Au/U-TS-1 catalysts. The mechanistic implication of this unique phenomenon is that gold clusters inside the nanopores in the TS-1 can serve as the active sites for the PO reaction, which is also supported by the similar apparent activation energies (28-36 kJ mole(-1)) observed among the Au/U-TS-1, Au/TS-1 and Au supported on S-1 coated TS-1 catalysts.

AB Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MCNTs) were used as a support for Rh-based catalysts for high pressure (20 bar) CO hydrogenation. 3 wt% Rh/CNTs catalysts were loaded with 1 wt% and 2 wt% Mn promoter, respectively, in order to study the effect of metal-promoter interactions for ethanol synthesis. Both STEM and EXAFS results showed similar to 1 nmRh particles in promoted as well as the unpromoted catalysts, STEM and EELS results verified the enhanced metal-promoter interaction when the amount of Mn promoter increased from 1 wt% to 2 wt%. The enhancement in the degree of metal-promoter interaction leads to an increase in the ethanol selectivity. Moreover, due to the nature of CNTs (low Z number), the Mn-Rh interactions could be observed at atomic resolution during the STEM-EELS characterization, and the promoter phase is confirmed as Mn(II) oxide by}CANES and EELS.

AB This study investigates the moisture budgets and resolution dependency of precipitation extremes in an aquaplanet framework based on the Community Atmosphere Model, version 4 (CAM4). Moisture budgets from simulations using two different dynamical cores, the Model for Prediction Across Scales-Atmosphere (MPAS-A) and High Order Method Modeling Environment (HOMME), but the same physics parameterizations suggest that during precipitation extremes the intensity of precipitation is approximately balanced by the vertical advective moisture transport. The resolution dependency in extremes from simulations at their native grid resolution originates from that of vertical moisture transport, which is mainly explained by changes in dynamics (related to vertical velocity ) with resolution. When assessed at the same grid scale by area-weighted averaging the fine-resolution simulations to the coarse grids, simulations with either dynamical core still demonstrate resolution dependency in extreme precipitation with no convergence over the tropics, but convergence occurs at a wide range of latitudes over the extratropics. The use of lower temporal frequency data (i.e., daily vs 6 hourly) reduces the resolution dependency. Although thermodynamic (moisture) changes become significant in offsetting the effect of dynamics when assessed at the same grid scale, especially over the extratropics, changes in dynamics with resolution are still large and explain most of the resolution dependency during extremes. This suggests that the effects of subgrid-scale variability of and vertical moisture transport during extremes are not adequately parameterized by the model at coarse resolution. The aquaplanet framework and analysis described in this study provide an important metric for assessing sensitivities of cloud parameterizations to spatial resolution and dynamical cores under extreme conditions.

AB We measure the large-scale cross-correlation of quasars with the Ly alpha forest absorption, using over 164,000 quasars from Data Release 11 of the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. We extend the previous study of roughly 60,000 quasars from Data Release 9 to larger separations, allowing a measurement of the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) scale along the line of sight cl(H(z = 2.36) r(s)) = 9.0 +/- 0.3 and across the line of sight DA(z = 2.36) / r(s) = 10.8 +/- 0.4, consistent with CMB and other BAO data. Using the best fit value of the sound horizon from Planck data (r(s) = 147.49 Mpc), we can translate these results to a measurement of the Hubble parameter of H(z = 2.36) = 226 +/- 8km s(-1)Mpc(-1) and of the angular diameter distance of DA(z = 2.36) = 1590 +/- 60 Mpc. The measured cross-correlation function and an update of the code to fit the BAO scale (baofit) are made publicly available.

AB We present Fisher matrix projections for future cosmological parameter measurements, including neutrino masses, Dark Energy, curvature, modified gravity, the inflationary perturbation spectrum, non-Gaussianity, and dark radiation. We focus on DESI and generally redshift surveys (BOSS, HETDEX, eBOSS, Euclid, and WFIRST), but also include CMB (Planck) and weak gravitational lensing (DES and LSST) constraints. The goal is to present a consistent set of projections, for concrete experiments, which are otherwise scattered throughout many papers and proposals. We include neutrino mass as a free parameter in most projections, as it will inevitably be relevant DESI and other experiments can measure the sum of neutrino masses to similar to 0.02 eV or better, while the minimum possible sum is similar to 0.06 eV. We note that constraints on Dark Energy are significantly degraded by the presence of neutrino mass uncertainty, especially when using galaxy clustering only as a probe of the BAO distance scale (because this introduces additional uncertainty in the background evolution after the CMB epoch). Using broadband galaxy power becomes relatively more powerful, and bigger gains are achieved by combining lensing survey constraints with redshift survey constraints. We do not try to be especially innovative, e.g., with complex treatments of potential systematic errors - these projections are intended as a straightforward baseline for comparison to more detailed analyses.

AB Direct measurements of peculiar velocities of galaxies and clusters of galaxies can in principle provide explicit information on the three dimensional mass distribution, but this information is modulated by the fact that velocity field is sampled at galaxy positions, and is thus probing galaxy momentum. We derive expressions for the cross power spectrum between the density and momentum field and the auto spectrum of the momentum field in redshift space, by extending the distribution function method to these statistics. The resulting momentum cross and auto power spectra in redshift space are expressed as infinite sums over velocity moment correlators in real space, as is the case for the density power spectrum in redshift space. We compute each correlator using Eulerian perturbation theory (PT) and halo biasing model and compare the resulting redshift-space velocity statistics to those measured from N-body simulations for both dark matter and halos. We find that in redshift space linear theory predictions for the density-momentum cross power spectrum as well as for the momentum auto spectrum fail to predict the N-body results at very large scales. On the other hand, our nonlinear PT prediction for these velocity statistics, together with real-space power spectrum for dark matter from simulations, improves the accuracy for both dark matter and halos. We also present the same analysis in configuration space, computing the redshift-space pairwise mean infall velocities and velocity correlation function and compare to nonlinear PT.

AB We introduce a Lagrangian-space Effective Field Theory (LEFT) formalism for the study of cosmological large scale structures. Unlike the previous Eulerian-space construction, it is naturally formulated as an effective field theory of extended objects in Lagrangian space. In LEFT the resulting finite size effects are described using a multipole expansion parameterized by a set of time dependent coefficients and organized in powers of the ratio of the wavenumber of interest k over the non-linear scale k(NL). The multipoles encode the effects of the short distance modes on the long-wavelength universe and absorb UV divergences when present. There are no IR divergences in LEFT. Some of the parameters that control the perturbative approach are not assumed to be small and can be automatically resummed. We present an illustrative one-loop calculation for a power law universe. We describe the dynamics both at the level of the equations of motion and through an action formalism.

AB We describe an electrostatically induced self-assembly method to prepare ultrathin Pd nanowires (NWs) surrounding individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes, i.e., Pd-NW/MWNTs, that are noticeable for improving performance in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) of their supported Pt-ML electrocatalyst. The carbonaceous by-products in MWNTs, rather than the nanotubes themselves, are modified with the oxygenated terminals to allow the negatively charged and hydrophilic surface while retaining the intrinsic nature of the MWNTs. Encompassing the nanotubes' length are 2-nm-thick Pd NWs that are closely packed and homogeneously dispersed due to the unique processes for preparing Pd-NW/MWNTs and its components. Although the crystal lattice of the Pd NWs expands somewhat, which should cause an unfavorable interaction with supported Pt-ML, this adverse effect is counterweighed by the shape-determined features of Pd NWs, including their high specific surface area, excellent contiguousness, and low-energy atomic configuration. Consequently, these distinct chemical and physical properties substantially expedite the desorption of the intermediates to refresh the active centers during the reduction of oxygen with the Pt-ML electrocatalyst while ensuring a desirable electron transfer rate, so improving the overall ORR kinetics. Indeed, Pt-ML/Pd-NW/MWNTs exhibits the Pt mass and specific activities of 1.45 A/mg(Pt) and 0.65 mA/cm(2) (Pt), respectively, each of which are several times those of the Pt/C and even higher than those of the Pt-ML supported on Pd nanoparticles. These high activities remained over a long-term stability test using the latest US Department of Energy-established protocol.

AB The wavelength down conversion approach to solid-state lighting (SSL) uses down conversion materials to produce visible light when excited by near-UV or blue emission from InGaN LEDs. This review discusses two classes of down conversion materials: phosphors and semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). Strong absorption of the excitation wavelength; high luminous efficacy of radiation, which enables white light with a high color rendering index and a low correlated color temperature; high quantum efficiency; and thermal and chemical stability are some of the criteria for down converters used in SSL. This review addresses the challenges in the development of down converters that satisfy all these criteria. We will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of several phosphor compositions for blue and near-UV LEDs. The use of core/shell architectures to improve the photoluminescence and moisture resistance of phosphors is presented. QDs are another class of down conversion materials for near-UV and blue LEDs. Strategies to improve the photostability and reduce the thermal quenching of QDs include strain-graded core/shell interfaces and alloying. We discuss Cd-containing II-VI QDs, and Cd-free III-V and I-III-VI QDs and their potential for SSL applications. Finally, a description of different methods to integrate the phosphors and QDs with the LED is given.

AB TiB2 powders were synthesized by borothermal reduction in nanoscale TiO2 with boron under vacuum. Reaction processes were investigated, and the effect of by-product B2O3 was evaluated. Results showed that TiO2 was firstly reduced by boron to form TiBO3 and Ti2O3, and then to produce TiB2 and B2O3 with increasing temperature. The reaction processes of TiB2 powders synthesis included two-step reduction in TiO2 by boron and the removal of B2O3. The presence of B2O3, which was previously reported as the most important factor in promoting the coarsening of ZrB2 and HfB2 powders by borothermal reduction, did not lead to significant coarsening of TiB2 powders. Due to the minor effect of B2O3, TiB2 powders with small particle size and low oxygen content could be prepared by direct heat treatment of TiO2 and boron at 1550 degrees C under vacuum for 1h. The particle size and oxygen content of synthesized TiB2 powders were similar to 0.9m and similar to 1.7wt%, respectively.

AB Nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) is a major constituent of the corrosion deposits formed on the exterior of nuclear fuel cladding tubes during operation. NiFe2O4 has attracted much recent interest, mainly due to the impact of these deposits, known as CRUD, on the operation of commercial nuclear reactors. Although advances have been made in modeling CRUD nucleation and growth under a wide range of conditions, the thermophysical properties of NiFe2O4 at high temperatures have only been approximated, thereby limiting the accuracy of such models. In this study, samples of NiFe2O4 were synthesized to provide the thermal diffusivity, specific heat capacity, and thermal expansion data from room temperature to 1300K. These results were then used to determine thermal conductivity. Numerical fits are provided to facilitate ongoing modeling efforts. The Curie temperature determined through these measurements was in slight disagreement with literature values. Transmission electron microscopy investigation of multiple NiFe2O4 samples revealed that minor nonstoichiometry was likely responsible for variations in the Curie temperature. However, these small changes in composition did not impact the thermal conductivity of NiFe2O4, and thus are not expected to play a large role in governing reactor performance.

AB We performed reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) modeling on neutron total scattering data and obtained an atomic structure consistent with the local and the average structures of the relaxor ferroelectric Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O-3. By analyzing the model structure from the RMC analysis, we found evidence for a significant off-centering of the lead ion that varied in magnitude and direction, leading to a partial ordering of polarizations over a few unit cells. We also estimated the static lattice distortion of the oxygen lattice from the bond-length distributions of atomic pairs.

AB Purpose This study aimed to test prospectively whether exercise is associated with lower brain cancer mortality in 111,266 runners and 42,136 walkers from the National Runners' and Walkers' Health Studies. Methods Hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) from Cox proportional hazards analyses of mortality versus metabolic equivalent hours per day of exercise (MET-hours per day, where 1 MET = 3.5 mL O-2 center dot kg(-1)center dot min(-1), or approximately 1-km run). Results The National Death Index identified 110 brain cancer deaths during an 11.7-yr average follow-up. Runners and walkers were combined because the brain cancer risk reduction did not differ significantly between MET-hours per day run and MET-hours per day walked (P = 0.66). When adjusted for sex, age, race, education, and cohort effects, the risk for brain cancer mortality was 43.2% lower for those who exercised 1.8 to 3.5 MET center dot h center dot d(-1) (95% CI = 2.6%-66.8% lower, P = 0.04) and 39.8% lower for those who exercised >= 3.6 MET center dot h center dot d(-1) (95% CI = 0.0%-64.0% lower, P = 0.05) compared with <1.8 MET center dot h center dot d(-1) at baseline. Pooling the runners and walkers who expended >= 1.8 MET center dot h center dot d(-1) showed a 42.5% lower risk of brain cancer mortality for the entire sample (95% CI: 8.0 to 64.1, P = 0.02) and 40.0% lower risk when three deaths that occurred within 1 yr of the baseline survey were excluded (95% CI = 1.3%-62.4%, P = 0.04). Conclusions The risk for fatal brain cancer decreased in association with running and walking energy expenditure. Our ability to detect an exercise-brain cancer relationship may relate to the use of cohorts specifically designed to detect exercise-health associations, and the calculation of exercise energy expenditure from kilometers per day walked and run rather than time spent exercising.

AB Purpose This study aimed to assess the relationships of running and walking to mortality in diabetic subjects. Methods We studied the mortality surveillance between January 1, 1989 and December 31, 2008, of 2160 participants of the National Walkers' and Runners' Health Studies who reported using diabetic medications at baseline. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were obtained from Cox proportional hazard analyses for mortality versus exercise energy expenditure (MET-hours per day, 1 MET center dot h similar to 1-km run or a 1.5-km brisk walk). Results Three hundred and thirty-one diabetic individuals died during a 9.8-yr average follow-up. Merely meeting the current exercise recommendations was not associated with lower all-cause mortality (P = 0.61), whereas exceeding the recommendations was associated with lower all-cause mortality (HR = 0.64, 95% CI = 0.49-0.82, P = 0.0005). Greater MET-hours per day ran or walked was associated with 40% lower risk for all chronic kidney disease-related deaths (HR = 0.60 per MET center dot h center dot d(-1), 95% CI = 0.35-0.91, P = 0.02), 31% lower risk for all sepsis-related deaths (HR = 0.69, 0.47-0.94, P = 0.01), and 31% lower risk for all pneumonia and influenza-related deaths (HR = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.45-0.97, P = 0.03). Running or walking >= 1.8 MET center dot h center dot d(-1) was associated with 57% reduction in cardiovascular disease (CVD) as an underlying cause of death and 46% lower risk for all CVD-related deaths versus <1.07 MET center dot h center dot d(-1). All results remained significant: 1) adjusted for baseline BMI and 2) excluding all deaths within 3 yr of baseline. Conclusions These results suggest that 1) exercise is associated with significantly lower all-cause, CVD, chronic kidney disease, sepsis, and pneumonia, and influenza mortality in diabetic patients and 2) higher exercise standards may be warranted for diabetic patients than currently provided to the general population.

AB This issue contains assessments of battery performance involving complex, interrelated physical and chemical processes between electrode materials and electrolytes. Transformational changes in battery technologies are critically needed to enable the effective use of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind to allow for the expansion of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) to plug-in HEVs and pure-electric vehicles. For these applications, batteries must store more energy per unit volume and weight, and they must be capable of undergoing many thousands of charge-discharge cycles. The articles in this theme issue present details of several growing interest areas, including high-energy cathode and anode materials for rechargeable Li-ion batteries and challenges of Li metal as an anode material for Li batteries. They also address the recent progress in systems beyond Li ion, including Li-S and Li-air batteries, which represent possible next-generation batteries for electrical vehicles. One article reviews the recent understanding and new strategies and materials for rechargeable Mg batteries. The knowledge presented in these articles is anticipated to catalyze the design of new multifunctional materials that can be tailored to provide the optimal performance required for future electrical energy storage applications.

AB The commercialization of lithium-ion batteries has intimately changed our lives and enabled portable electronic devices, which has revolutionized communications, entertainment, medicine, and more. After three decades of commercial development, researchers around the world are now pursuing major advances that would allow this technology to power the next generation of light-duty, electric, and hybrid-electric vehicles. If this goal is to be met, concerted advances in safety and cost, as well as cycle-life and energy densities, must be realized through advances in the properties of the highly correlated, but separate, components of lithium-ion energy-storage systems.

AB The success of high capacity energy storage systems based on lithium (Li) batteries relies on the realization of the promise of Li-metal anodes. Li metal has many, advantageous properties, including an extremely high theoretical specific capacity (3860 mAh g(-1)), the lowest electrochemical potential (-3.040 V versus standard hydrogen electrode), and low density (0.59 g cm(-3)), which, all together, make it a very,desirable electrode for energy storage devices. However, while primary Li batteries are used for numerous commercial applications, rechargeable Li-metal batteries that utilize Li-metal anodes have not been as successful. This article discusses the properties of Li metal in the absence of surface stabilization, as well as three different approaches currently under investigation for stabilizing the surface of Li metal to control its reactivity within the electrochemical environment of a Li-based battery.

AB Semiconducting pi-conjugated polymers have attracted significant interest for applications in light-emitting diodes, field-effect transistors, photovoltaics, and nonlinear optoelectronic devices. Central to the success of these functional organic materials is the facile tunability of their electrical, optical, and magnetic properties along with. easy processability and the outstanding mechanical properties associated with polymeric structures. In this work we characterize the chemical and electronic structure of individual chains of oligo-(E)-1,1'-bi(indenylidene), a polyacetylene derivative that we have obtained through cooperative C1-C5 thermal enediyne cyclizations on Au(111) surfaces followed by a step-growth polymerization of the (E)-1,1'-bi(indenylidene) diradical intermediates. We have determined the combined structural and electronic properties of this class of oligomers by characterizing the atomically precise chemical structure of individual monomer building blocks and oligomer chains (via noncontact atomic force microscopy (nc-AFM)), as well as by imaging their localized and extended molecular orbitals (via scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS)). Our combined structural and electronic measurements reveal that the energy associated with extended pi-conjugated states in these oligomers is significantly lower than the energy of the corresponding localized monomer orbitals, consistent with theoretical predictions.

AB Here we introduce a form of chromatography that can be imposed on the membrane of a living cell. A cell cell signaling interaction is reconstituted in a hybrid live cell-supported membrane junction. The chromatographic material consists of a hexagonally ordered array of gold nanoparticles (nanodot array), which is fabricated onto the underlying substrate. While individual membrane components move freely throughout the array, the movement of larger assemblies is impeded if they exceed the physical dimensions of the array. This tactile approach to probing membrane structures in living cells reveals organizational aspects of the membrane environment unobservable by other techniques.

AB Ion-conductive polymers, or ionomers, are critical materials for a wide range of electrochemical technologies. For optimizing the complex heterogeneous structures in which they occur, there is a need to elucidate the governing structure property relationships, especially at nanoscale dimensions where interfacial interactions dominate the overall materials response due to confinement effects. It is widely acknowledged that polymer physical behavior can be drastically altered from the bulk when under confinement and the literature is replete with examples thereof. However, there is a deficit in the understanding of ionomers when confined to the nanoscale, although it is apparent from literature that confinement can influence ionomer properties. Herein we show that as one particular ionomer, Nafion, is confined to thin films, there is a drastic increase in the modulus over the bulk value, and we demonstrate that this stiffening can explain previously observed deviations in materials properties such as water transport and uptake upon confinement. Moreover, we provide insight into the underlying confinement-induced stiffening through the application of a simple theoretical framework based on self-consistent micromechanics. This framework can be applied to other polymer systems and assumes that as the polymer is confined the mechanical response becomes dominated by the modulus of individual polymer chains.

AB Understanding the influence of different film structures on electron diffusion in nanoporous metal oxide films has been challenging. Because of the rate-limiting role that traps play in controlling the transport properties, the structural effects of different film architectures are largely obscured or reduced. We describe a general approach to probe the impact of structural order and disorder on the charge-carrier dynamics without the interference of transport-limiting traps. As an illustration of this approach, we explore the consequences of trap-free diffusion in vertically aligned nanotube structures and random nanoparticle networks in sensitized titanium dioxide solar cells. Values of the electron diffusion coefficients in the nanotubes approached those observed for the single crystal and were up to 2 orders of magnitude greater than those measured for nanoparticle films with various average crystallites sizes. Transport measurements together with modeling show that electron scattering at grain boundaries in particle networks limits trap-free diffusion. In presence of traps, transport was 10(3)-10(5) times slower in nanoparticle films than in the single crystal. Understanding the link between structure and carrier dynamics is important for systematically altering and eventually controlling the electronic properties of nanoscaled materials.

AB Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery is one of the most promising energy storage systems because of its high specific capacity of 1675 mAh g(-1) based on sulfur. However, the rapid capacity degradation, mainly caused by polysulfide dissolution, remains a significant challenge prior to practical applications. This work demonstrates that a novel Ni-based metal organic framework (Ni-MOF), Ni-6(BTB)(4)(BP)(3) (BTB = benzene-1,3,5-tribenzoate and BP = 4,4'-bipyridyl), can remarkably immobilize polysulfides within the cathode structure through physical and chemical interactions at molecular level. The capacity retention achieves up to 89% after 100 cycles at 0.1 C. The excellent performance is attributed to the synergistic effects of the interwoven mesopores (similar to 2.8 nm) and micropores (similar to 4.4 nm) of Ni-MOF, which first provide an ideal matrix to confine polysulfides, and the strong interactions between Lewis acidic Ni(II) center and the polysulfide base, which significantly slow down the migration of soluble polysulfides out of the pores, leading to the excellent cycling performance of Ni-MOF/S composite.

AB The metal to insulator transition (MIT) of strongly correlated materials is subject to strong lattice coupling, which brings about the unique one-dimensional alignment of metal insulator (M-I) domains along nanowires or nanobeams. Many studies have investigated the effects of stress on the MIT and hence the phase boundary, but few have directly examined the temperature profile across the metal insulating interface. Here, we use thermoreflectance microscopy to create two-dimensional temperature maps of single-crystalline VO2 nanobeams under external bias in the phase coexisting regime. We directly observe highly localized alternating Peltier heating and cooling as well as Joule heating concentrated at the M I domain boundaries, indicating the significance of the domain walls and band offsets. Utilizing the thermoreflectance technique, we are able to elucidate strain accumulation along the nanobeam and distinguish between two insulating phases of VO2 through detection of the opposite polarity of their respective thermoreflectance coefficients. Microelasticity theory was employed to predict favorable domain wall configurations, confirming the monoclinic phase identification.

AB We present successful synthesis of large area atomically thin MoSe2 films by selenization of MoO3 in a vapor transport chemical vapor deposition (CVD) system. The homogeneous thin film can reach an area of 1 x 1 cm(2) consisting primarily of monolayer and bilayer MoSe2 film. Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) images reveal the highly crystalline nature of the thin film and the atomic structure of grain boundaries in monolayers. Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopy confirm the high quality of as-grown MoSe2 in optics, and electronic transport measurements highlight the potential applications of the sample in nanoelectronics.

AB We investigate structural coupling of the MnO6 octahedra across a film/substrate interface and the resultant changes of the physical properties of ultrathin La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 (LSMO) films. In order to isolate the effect of interfacial MnO6 octahedral behavior from that of epitaxial strain, LSMO films are grown on substrates with different symmetry and similar lattice parameters. Ultrathin LSMO films show an increased magnetization and electrical conductivity on cubic (LaAlO3)(0.3)(Sr2AlTaO6)(0.7) (LSAT) compared to those grown on orthorhombic NdGaO3 (NGO) substrates, an effect that subsides as the thickness of the films is increased. This study demonstrates that interfacial structural coupling can play a critical role in the functional properties of oxide heterostructures.

AB Dealloying is currently used to tailor the morphology and composition of nanoparticles and bulk solids for a variety of applications including catalysis, energy storage, sensing, actuation, supercapacitors, and radiation damage resistant materials. The known morphologies, which evolve on dealloying of nanoparticles, include core shell, hollow core-shell, and porous nanoparticles. Here we present results examining the fixed voltage dealloying of AgAu alloy particles in the size range of 2-6 and 20-55 nm. High-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microcopy, energy dispersive, and electron energy loss spectroscopy are used to characterize the size, morphology, and composition of the dealloyed nanoparticles. Our results demonstrate that above the potential corresponding to Ag+/Ag equilibrium only core-shell structures evolve in the 2-6 nm diameter particles. Dealloying of the 20-55 nm particles results and in the formation of porous structures analogous to the behavior observed for the corresponding bulk alloy. A statistical analysis that includes the composition and particle size distributions characterizing the larger particles demonstrates that the formation of porous nanoparticles occurs at a well-defined thermodynamic critical potential.

AB Lithium- and manganese-rich (LMR) layered-structure materials are very promising cathodes for high energy density lithium-ion batteries. However, their voltage fading mechanism and its relationships with fundamental structural changes are far from being well understood. Here we report for the first time the mitigation of voltage and energy fade of LMR cathodes by improving the atomic level spatial uniformity of the chemical species. The results reveal that LMR cathodes (Li[Li0.2Ni0.2M0.6]O-2) prepared by coprecipitation and sol-gel methods, which are dominated by a LiMO2 type R (3) over barm structure, show significant nonuniform Ni distribution at particle surfaces. In contrast, the LMR cathode prepared by a hydrothermal assisted method is dominated by a Li2MO3 type C2/ m structure with minimal Ni-rich surfaces. The samples with uniform atomic level spatial distribution demonstrate much better capacity retention and much smaller voltage fade as compared to those with significant nonuniform Ni distribution. The fundamental findings on the direct correlation between the atomic level spatial distribution of the chemical species and the functional stability of the materials may also guide the design of other energy storage materials with enhanced stabilities.

AB Complex oxides displaying ferroelectric and/or multiferroic behavior are of high fundamental and applied interest. In this work, we show that it is possible to achieve polar order in a superlattice made up of two nonpolar oxides by means of oxygen vacancy ordering. Using scanning transmission electron microscopy imaging, we show the polar displacement of magnetic Fe ions in a superlattice of (LaFeO3)(2)/ (SrFeO3) grown on a SrTiO3 substrate. Using density functional theory calculations, we systematically study the effect of epitaxial strain, octahedral rotations, and surface terminations in the superlattice and find them to have a negligible effect on the antipolar displacements of the Fe ions lying in between SrO and LaO layers of the superlattice (i.e., within La0.3Sr0.5FeO3 unit cells). The introduction of oxygen vacancies, on the other hand, triggers a polar displacement of the Fe ions. We confirm this important result using electron energy loss spectroscopy, which shows partial oxygen vacancy ordering in the region where polar displacements are observed and an absence of vacancy ordering outside of that area.

AB The use of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals for optical amplification and lasing has been limited by the need for high input power densities. Here we show that colloidal nanoplatelets produce amplified spontaneous emission with thresholds as low as 6 mu J/cm(2) and gain as high as 600 cm(-1), both a significant improvement over colloidal nanocrystals; in addition, gain saturation occurs at pump fluences 2 orders of magnitude higher than the threshold. We attribute this exceptional performance to large optical cross-sections, slow Auger recombination rates, and narrow ensemble emission line widths.

AB In this article, we report only 10 atomic layer thick, high mobility, transparent thin film transistors (TFTs) with ambipolar device characteristics fabricated on both a conventional silicon platform as well as on a flexible substrate. Monolayer graphene was used as metal electrodes, 3-4 atomic layers of h-BN were used as the gate dielectric, and finally bilayers of WSe2 were used as the semiconducting channel material for the TFTs. The field effect carrier mobility was extracted to be 45 cm(2)/(V s), which exceeds the mobility values of state of the art amorphous silicon based TFTs by similar to 100 times. The active device stack of WSe2-hBN-graphene was found to be more than 88% transparent over the entire visible spectrum and the device characteristics were unaltered for in-plane mechanical strain of up to 2%. The device demonstrated remarkable temperature stability over 77-400 K. Low contact resistance value of 1.4 k Omega-mu m, subthreshold slope of 90 mv/decade, current ON-OFF ratio of 10(7), and presence of both electron and hole conduction were observed in our all two-dimensional (2D) TFTs, which are extremely desirable but rarely reported characteristics of most of the organic and inorganic TFTs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of all 2D transparent TFT fabricated on flexible substrate along with the highest mobility and current ON-OFF ratio.

AB Post-irradiation examination of coated particle fuel from the AGR-1 experiment is in progress at Idaho National Laboratory and Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In this paper a brief summary of results from characterization of microstructures in the coating layers of selected irradiated fuel particles with burnup of 11.3% and 19.3% FIMA will be given. The main objectives of the characterization were to study irradiation effects, fuel kernel porosity, layer debonding, layer degradation or corrosion, fission-product precipitation, grain sizes, and transport of fission products from the kernels across the TRISO layers. Characterization techniques such as scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and wavelength dispersive spectroscopy were used. A new approach to microscopic quantification of fission-product precipitates is also briefly demonstrated. Microstructural characterization focused on fission-product precipitates in the SiC-IPyC interface, the SiC layer and the fuel-buffer interlayer. The results provide significant new insights into mechanisms of fission-product transport. Although Pd-rich precipitates were identified at the SiC-IPyC interlayer, no significant SiC-layer thinning was observed for the particles investigated. Characterization of these precipitates highlighted the difficulty of measuring low concentrations of Ag in precipitates with significantly higher concentrations of Pd and U. Different approaches to resolving this problem are discussed. An initial hypothesis is provided to explain fission-product precipitate compositions and locations. No SiC phase transformations were observed and no debonding of the SiC-IPyC interlayer as a result of irradiation was observed for the samples investigated. Lessons learned from the post-irradiation examination are described and future actions are recommended. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Fuel compacts have been fabricated for the third in a series of irradiation tests designed to study tri-structural isotropic (TRISO) coated particle fuel performance in support of advanced gas-cooled reactor (AGR) development. The purpose of this third irradiation test, designated as AGR-3/4, is to measure fission product release and transport by irradiating compacts containing a small fraction of fuel particles that are intentionally designed to fail (DTF) early in the irradiation test. Transport of fission products released by the mixed uranium carbide/uranium oxide kernels within the DTF particles will be studied in the compact's carbon matrix and in cylindrical rings surrounding the compacts, which were made from either compact matrix material or structural graphite. Results will be used to refine fission product transport models. Coating of the 20-mu m-thick pyrocarbon-coated DTF and standard TRISO driver-fuel particles, fabrication of the fuel compacts containing these particles, and characterization of the key fuel properties are discussed in this paper.

AB In the AGR-1 irradiation experiment, 72 coated-particle fuel compacts were taken to a peak burnup of 19.5% fissions per initial metal atom with no in-pile failures. This paper discusses the first post-irradiation test of these mixed uranium oxide/uranium carbide fuel compacts at elevated temperature to examine the fuel performance under a simulated depressurized conduction cooldown event. A compact was heated for 400 h at 1600 degrees C. Release of Kr-85 was monitored throughout the furnace test as an indicator of coating failure, while other fission product releases from the compact were periodically measured by capturing them on exchangeable, water-cooled deposition cups. No coating failure was detected during the furnace test, and this result was verified by subsequent electrolytic deconsolidation and acid leaching of the compact, which showed that all SiC layers were still intact. However, the deposition cups recovered significant quantities of silver, europium, and strontium. Based on comparison of calculated compact inventories at the end of irradiation versus analysis of these fission products released to the deposition cups and furnace internals, the minimum estimated fractional losses from the compact during the furnace test were 1.9 x 10(-2) for silver, 1.4 x 10(-3) for europium, and 1.1 x 10(-5) for strontium. Other post-irradiation examination of AGR-1 compacts indicates that similar fractions of europium and silver may have already been released by the intact coated particles during irradiation, and it is therefore likely that the detected fission products released from the compact in this 1600 degrees C furnace test were from residual fission products in the matrix. Gamma analysis of coated particles deconsolidated from the compact after the heating test revealed that silver content within each particle varied considerably; a result that is probably not related to the furnace test, because it has also been observed in other as-irradiated AGR-1 compacts. X-ray imaging of selected particles was performed to examine the internal microstructure. This examination revealed variable irradiation performance of the coating layers, but sufficient statistical sampling is not yet available to identify any possible correlation to variation in individual particle fission product retention.

AB The United States Department of Energy's Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) advanced gas reactor (AGR) Fuel Development and Qualification Program will be irradiating up to seven separate low enriched uranium (LEU) tri-isotopic (TRISO) particle fuel (in compact form) experiments in the advanced test reactor (ATR) located at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). These irradiations and fuel development are being accomplished to support development of the next generation reactors in the United States, and will be irradiated over the next several years to demonstrate and qualify new TRISO coated particle fuel for use in high temperature gas reactors. The goals of the irradiation experiments are to provide irradiation performance data to support fuel process development, to qualify fuel for normal operating conditions, to support development and validation of fuel performance and fission product transport models and codes, and to provide irradiated fuel and materials for post irradiation examination (PIE) and safety testing. The experiments, which will each consist of at least six separate capsules, will be irradiated in an inert sweep gas atmosphere with individual on-line temperature monitoring and control of each capsule. The sweep gas will also have on-line fission product monitoring on its effluent to track performance of the fuel in each individual capsule during irradiation.
The first experiment (designated AGR-1) started irradiation in December 2006 and was completed in November 2009. The second experiment (AGR-2) started irradiation in June 2010 and is currently scheduled to be completed in April 2013. The third and fourth experiments have been combined into a single experiment designated AGR-3/4, which started its irradiation in December 2011 and is currently scheduled to be completed in November 2013. Since the purpose of this experiment is to provide data on fission product migration and retention in the NGNP reactor, the design of this experiment is significantly different from the first two experiments, though the control and monitoring systems are very similar. The purpose and design of this experiment will be discussed followed by its progress and status to date. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Transport of Ag-110m in the intact SiC layer of TRISO coated particles has been studied for approximately 30 years without arriving at a satisfactory explanation of the transport mechanism. In this paper the possible mechanisms postulated in previous experimental studies, both in-reactor and out-of reactor research environment studies are critically reviewed and of particular interest are relevance to very high temperature gas reactor operating and accident conditions. Among the factors thought to influence Ag transport are grain boundary stoichiometry, SiC grain size and shape, the presence of free silicon, nano-cracks, thermal decomposition, palladium attack, transmutation products, layer thinning and coated particle shape. Additionally new insight to nature and location of fission products has been gained via recent post irradiation electron microscopy examination of TRISO coated particles from the DOE's fuel development program. The combined effect of critical review and new analyses indicates a direction for investigating possible the Ag transport mechanism including the confidence level with which these mechanisms may be experimentally verified.

AB As part of the High Temperature Reactors (HTR) R&D program, a series of irradiation tests, designated as Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor (AGR), have been defined to support development and qualification of fuel design, fabrication process, and fuel performance under normal operation and accident conditions. The AGR tests employ fuel compacts placed in a graphite cylinder shrouded by a steel capsule and instrumented with thermocouples (TC) embedded in graphite blocks enabling temperature control. While not possible to obtain by direct measurements in the tests, crucial fuel conditions (e.g., temperature, neutron fast fluence, and burnup) are calculated using core physics and thermal modeling codes. This paper is focused on AGR test fuel temperature predicted by the ABAQUS code's finite element-based thermal models. The work follows up on a previous study, in which several statistical analysis methods were adapted, implemented in the NGNP Data Management and Analysis System (NDMAS), and applied for qualification of AGR-1 thermocouple data. Abnormal trends in measured data revealed by the statistical analysis are traced to either measuring instrument deterioration or physical mechanisms in capsules that may have shifted the system thermal response. The main thrust of this work is to exploit the variety of data obtained in irradiation and post-irradiation examination (PIE) for assessment of modeling assumptions. As an example, the uneven reduction of the control gas gap in Capsule 5 found in the capsule metrology measurements in PIE helps identify mechanisms other than TC drift causing the decrease in TC readings. This suggests a more physics-based modification of the thermal model that leads to a better fit with experimental data, thus reducing model uncertainty and increasing confidence in the calculated fuel temperatures of the AGR-1 test.

AB The AGR-1 experiment involved irradiation of 72 TRISO-coated particle fuel compacts to a peak compact-average burnup of 19.5% FIMA with no in-pile failures observed out of 3 x 10(5) total particles. Irradiated AGR-1 fuel compacts have been cross-sectioned and analyzed with optical microscopy to characterize kernel, buffer, and coating behavior. Six compacts have been examined, spanning a range of irradiation conditions (burnup, fast fluence, and irradiation temperature) and including all four TRISO coating variations irradiated in the AGR-1 experiment. The cylindrical specimens were sectioned both transversely and longitudinally, then polished to expose from 36 to 79 individual particles near midplane on each mount. The analysis focused primarily on kernel swelling and porosity, buffer densification and fracturing, buffer-IPyC debonding, and fractures in the IPyC and SiC layers. Characteristic morphologies have been identified, 981 particles have been classified, and spatial distributions of particle types have been mapped. No significant spatial patterns were discovered in these cross sections. However, some trends were found between morphological types and certain behavioral aspects. Buffer fractures were found in 23% of the particles, and these fractures often resulted in unconstrained kernel protrusion into the open cavities. Fractured buffers and buffers that stayed bonded to IPyC layers appear related to larger pore size in kernels. Buffer-IPyC interface integrity evidently factored into initiation of rare IPyC fractures. Fractures through part of the SiC layer were found in only four classified particles, all in conjunction with IPyC-SiC debonding. Compiled results suggest that the deliberate coating fabrication variations influenced the frequencies of IPyC fractures and IPyC-SiC debonds. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The AGR-1 Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) tristructural-isotropic-particle fuel experiment underwent 13 irradiation intervals from December 2006 until November 2009 within the Idaho National Laboratory Advanced Test Reactor in support of the Next Generation Nuclear Power Plant program. During this multi-year experiment, release-to-birth rate ratios were computed at the end of each operating interval to provide information about fuel performance. Fission products released during irradiation were tracked daily by the Fission Product Monitoring System using 8-h measurements. Birth rate calculated by MCNP with ORIGEN for as-run conditions were computed at the end of each irradiation interval. Each time step in MCNP provided neutron flux, reaction rates and AGR-1 compact composition, which were used to determine birth rate using ORIGEN. The initial birth-rate data, consisting of four values for each irradiation interval at the beginning, end, and two intermediate times, were interpolated to obtain values for each 8-h activity. The problem with this method is that any daily changes in heat rates or perturbations, such as shim control movement or core/lobe power fluctuations, would not be reflected in the interpolated data and a true picture of the system would not be presented. At the conclusion of the AGR-1 experiment, great efforts were put forth to compute daily birthrates, which were reprocessed with the 8-h release activity. The results of this study are presented in this paper. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The United States Department of Energy's Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) Fuel Development and Qualification Program will be irradiating up to seven separate low enriched uranium (LEU) tri-isotopic (TRISO) particle fuel (in compact form) experiments in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) located at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). These irradiations and fuel development are being accomplished to support development of the next generation reactors in the United States, and will be irradiated over the next several years to demonstrate and qualify new TRISO coated particle fuel for use in high temperature gas reactors. The goals of the irradiation experiments are to provide irradiation performance data to support fuel process development, to qualify fuel for normal operating conditions, to support development and validation of fuel performance and fission product transport models and codes, and to provide irradiated fuel and materials for post irradiation examination (PIE) and safety testing. The experiments, which will each consist of at least six separate capsules, will be irradiated in an inert sweep gas atmosphere with individual on-line temperature monitoring and control of each capsule. The sweep gas will also undergo on-line fission product monitoring to track performance of the fuel in each individual capsule during irradiation.
The first experiment (designated AGR-1) started irradiation in December 2006 and was completed in November 2009. The second experiment (AGR-2), which utilized the same experiment design as well as control and monitoring systems as AGR-1, started irradiation in June 2010 and is currently scheduled to be completed in April 2013. The design of this experiment and support systems will be briefly discussed, followed by the progress and status of the experiment to date. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB As a part of our irradiated graphite recycle program a small quantity of PCEA grade graphite was irradiated in the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) at ORNL. The graphite will provide the "raw material" for future recycle experiments. The geometry of the irradiated graphite allowed us to study the effects of neutron irradiation on the critical stress intensity factor, K-IC, of graphite. The specimens were irradiated in two groups of 6 at an irradiation temperature of 900 degrees C in "rabbit" capsules to doses of 6.6 and 10.2 dpa, respectively. Following a full suite of pre- and post-irradiation examination, which included dimensions, mass, electrical resistivity, elastic constants, and thermal expansion (to 800 degrees C) the samples were notched and tested to determine their K-IC using the newly approved ATSM test method for SENS fracture toughness of graphite. Here we report the irradiation induced changes in the dimensions, elastic constants, resistivity, and coefficient of thermal expansion of PCEA graphite. Moreover, irradiation induced changes in the critical stress intensity factor, K-IC or fracture toughness, are reported and discussed. Very little work on the effect of neutron irradiation on the fracture toughness of graphite has previously be performed or reported. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The United States Department of Energy's Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) Program will be irradiating six nuclear graphite creep experiments in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) located at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). The graphite experiments will be irradiated over the next six to eight years to support development of a graphite irradiation performance data base on the new nuclear grade graphites now available for use in high temperature gas reactors. The goals of the irradiation experiments are to obtain irradiation performance data, including irradiation creep, at different temperatures and loading conditions to support design of the next generation nuclear plant (NGNP) very high temperature gas reactor, as well as other future gas reactors. The experiments will each consist of a single capsule that will contain six peripheral stacks of graphite specimens, with half of the graphite specimens in each stack under a compressive load, while the other half of the specimens will not be subjected to a compressive load during irradiation. The six peripheral stacks will have three different compressive loads applied to the top half of three diametrically opposite pairs of specimen stacks, while a seventh stack will not have a compressive load. The specimens will be irradiated in an inert sweep gas atmosphere with on-line temperature and compressive load monitoring and control. There will also be sampling the sweep gas effluent to determine if any oxidation or off-gassing of the specimens occurs during irradiation of the experiment. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) worked with Particulate Solids Research Inc. (PSRI) to conduct the third CFD Challenge Problem in granular fluid flow to evaluate the progress and state of the art in simulating gas solids flow in a circulating fluidized bed. Both Group A and B particles were tested at several gas velocities and solids circulation rates. For both particle groups pressures and particle velocities were measured within the riser. For the Group B cases local radial solids fluxes and high speed pressure fluctuations were measured. Model predictions were compared against these experimental results and vetted in the workshop at the Circulating Fluid Bed X. The modelers were given detailed descriptions of the experimental facilities as well as physical property and small scale fluidization data on the different bed materials tested. Two general types of modeling simulations were submitted: Eulerian-Eulerian and Eulerian-Lagrangian. Both types of model had successes and failures indicating that good results are strongly influenced by resources such as available time, computational facilities, and experience level of the modeler. By comparing the predicted behavior the strengths and weaknesses associated with the different modeling approaches were identified and shortcomings could be targeted for future development and improvements.

AB Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. Human cholesteryl esters (CEs) are naturally transferred from atheroprotective high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) to atherogenic low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) and very low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs) by cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), resulting in a higher probability of CVDs. Finding out the mechanism of CETP in CE transport is an important basis for designing new CETP inhibitors for treating CVDs. This review is focused on the recent studies of CETP structure and interactions with lipoproteins. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies showed that CETP not only can bind to HDL, LDL and VLDL into binary complexes, respectively, but also connects HDL and LDL or VLDL into a ternary complex via penetrating into the HDL core with its N-terminal domain and the LDL or VLDL surface with its C-terminal domain. Molecular dynamics simulations suggested that the penetrated distal ends are highly flexible under physiological conditions and when CETP contacts lipid droplets. This flexibility allows for large-scale conformational changes, and can even open pores in the distal ends. These pores and the original hydrophobic cavities within the CETP crystal structure are generally stable in physiological solution, and can even connect together into a continuous tunnel for CE transfer. Based on above results, scientists introduced and discussed the "tunnel" model for CETP-mediated lipid transfer in detail, and further suggested new interfaces of CETP for being targeted by a new generation CETP inhibitors to treat CVDs.

AB Equilibrium H/D fractionation factors have been extensively employed to qualitatively assess hydrogen bond strengths in protein structure, enzyme active sites, and DNA. It remains unclear how fractionation factors correlate with hydrogen bond free energies, however. Here we develop an empirical relationship between fractionation factors and free energy, allowing for the simple and quantitative measurement of hydrogen bond free energies. Applying our empirical relationship to prior fractionation factor studies in proteins, we find: [1] Within the folded state, backbone hydrogen bonds are only marginally stronger on average in -helices compared to -sheets by approximate to 0.2 kcal/mol. [2] Charge-stabilized hydrogen bonds are stronger than neutral hydrogen bonds by approximate to 2 kcal/mol on average, and can be as strong as -7 kcal/mol. [3] Changes in a few hydrogen bonds during an enzyme catalytic cycle can stabilize an intermediate state by -4.2 kcal/mol. [4] Backbone hydrogen bonds can make a large overall contribution to the energetics of conformational changes, possibly playing an important role in directing conformational changes. [5] Backbone hydrogen bonding becomes more uniform overall upon ligand binding, which may facilitate participation of the entire protein structure in events at the active site. Our energetic scale provides a simple method for further exploration of hydrogen bond free energies.

AB The high yields required for the economical production of chemicals and fuels using microbes can be difficult to achieve due to the complexities of cellular metabolism. An alternative to performing biochemical transformations in microbes is to build biochemical pathways in vitro, an approach we call synthetic biochemistry. Here we test whether the full mevalonate pathway can be reconstituted in vitro and used to produce the commodity chemical isoprene. We construct an in vitro synthetic biochemical pathway that uses the carbon and ATP produced from the glycolysis intermediate phosphoenolpyruvate to run the mevalonate pathway. The system involves 12 enzymes to perform the complex transformation, while providing and balancing the ATP, NADPH, and acetyl-CoA cofactors. The optimized system produces isoprene from phosphoenolpyruvate in approximate to 100% molar yield. Thus, by inserting the isoprene pathway into previously developed glycolysis modules it may be possible to produce isoprene and other acetyl-CoA derived isoprenoids from glucose in vitro.

AB Pilot Project #1the identification and characterization of human histone H4 proteoforms by top-down MSis the first project launched by the Consortium for Top-Down Proteomics (CTDP) to refine and validate top-down MS. Within the initial results from seven participating laboratories, all reported the probability-based identification of human histone H4 (UniProt accession P62805) with expectation values ranging from 10(-13) to 10(-105). Regarding characterization, a total of 74 proteoforms were reported, with 21 done so unambiguously; one new PTM, K79ac, was identified. Inter-laboratory comparison reveals aspects of the results that are consistent, such as the localization of individual PTMs and binary combinations, while other aspects are more variable, such as the accurate characterization of low-abundance proteoforms harboring >2 PTMs. An open-access tool and discussion of proteoform scoring are included, along with a description of general challenges that lie ahead including improved proteoform separations prior to mass spectrometric analysis, better instrumentation performance, and software development.

AB There are several notable challenges inherent for fully characterizing the entirety of the human saliva proteome using bottom-up approaches, including polymorphic isoforms, PTMs, unique splice variants, deletions, and truncations. To address these challenges, we have developed a top-down based LC-MS/MS approach, which cataloged 20 major human salivary proteins with a total of 83 proteoforms, containing a broad range of PTMs. Among these proteins, several previously reported disease biomarker proteins were identified at the intact protein level, such as beta-2 microglobulin. In addition, intact glycosylated proteoforms of several saliva proteins were also characterized, including intact N-glycosylated protein prolactin inducible protein and O-glycosylated acidic protein rich protein. These characterized proteoforms constitute an intact saliva proteoform database, which was used for quantitative comparison of intact salivary proteoforms among six healthy individuals. Human parotid and submandibular/sublingual gland secretion samples (2 g of protein each) from six healthy individuals were compared using RPLC coupled with the 12T FT-ICR mass spectrometer. Significantly different proteoform profiles were resolved with high reproducibility between parotid secretion and submandibular/sublingual glands. The results from this study provide further insight into the potential mechanisms of PTM pathways in oral glandular secretion, expanding our knowledge of this complex yet easily accessible fluid. Intact protein LC-MS approach presented herein can potentially be applied for rapid and accurate identification of biomarkers from only a few microliters of human glandular saliva.

AB We have previously shown that different individuals exposed to the same antigen produce antibodies with identical mutations in their complementarity determining regions (CDR), suggesting that CDR tryptic peptides can serve as biomarkers for disease diagnosis and prognosis. Complete Fabs derived from disease specific antibodies have even higher potential; they could potentially be used for disease treatment and are required to identify the antigens toward which the antibodies are directed. However, complete Fab sequence characterization via LC-MS analysis of tryptic peptides (i.e. bottom-up) has proven to be impractical for mixtures of antibodies. To tackle this challenge, we have developed an integrated bottom-up and top-down MS approach, employing 2D chromatography coupled with Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS), and applied this approach for full characterization of the variable parts of two pharmaceutical monoclonal antibodies with sensitivity comparable to the bottom-up standard. These efforts represent an essential step toward the identification of disease specific antibodies in patient samples with potentially significant clinical impact.

AB The surge in advancing the materials science of solid-state reactions for nanoscale contacts to advanced semiconductor devices necessitates a comprehensive dissemination and discussion on recent progress. The objective of this work is to review the notable developments in compound and alloy contact formation to nanoscale nanowire channels made of germanium, silicon, and their heterostructures, and to develop a unifying framework for understanding the significantly distinct reaction behaviors from those commonly observed in bulk. The Ni-based compound and alloy contacts are used as a platform to highlight the size-relevant, thermodynamic, and kinetic differences, and their key material, reaction, and electronic parameters and properties are summarized. Special attention is given to the interplay between the compound/alloy contact structure and the resultant electronic properties.

AB In this study, the environmental loads of 100 kWp cadmium telluride photovoltaic (CdTe PV) power generation systems in Malaysia are analyzed using life cycle assessment. The target renewable energy system is made up of CdTe PV panel, a power conditioning system and a balance of system. Life-cycle environmental issues were analyzed using major indicators like global warming potential, fossil fuel consumption, energy payback time, and CO2 payback time. Then, the results were compared with those of alternative PV systems such as single- and multi-crystalline silicon photovoltaics.
The CdTe PV systems presently have a GWP of 15.1 g CO2 equivalent/kW h in Malaysia. The CdTe PV panel is the greatest contributor to global warming potential in the system, accounting for 47.8%. Electricity used in the semiconductor deposition process is the major contributor of GWP in CdTe PV panel. Total fossil fuel consumption is 0.221 MJ/kW h. The CdTe PV panel accounts for 49.3% of the total fossil fuel consumption. Energy payback time and CO2 payback time are 0.94 years and 0.76 years, respectively, and those are relatively short periods compared with other PV power plants. The energy return on investment of the CdTe PV system was found to be superior to other Si-based PV systems. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This paper examines the effects of long-term, high-temperature corrosion processes on materials used in concentrated solar power tower systems. More specifically, the heat transfer fluid and the containment metal are examined at operating temperatures of 600 and 680 degrees C. A 60/40% NaNO3/KNO3 mixture of molten salt and nickel-based alloys HA230 and In625 were tested for up to 4000 h at the given temperatures. HA230 and In625 alloys showed metal losses of 688 and 594 mu m/year, respectively, after 1000 h at 680 degrees C. The solar salt used in this study showed significant decreases (as much as 60 degrees C) in melting point. Further experiments showed that the primary reason for the decrease in melting point is due to high nitrite concentrations in the molten salt. However, other thermophysical properties of aged solar salt appear to change little during high-temperature corrosion tests. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) system, consisting of a tank filled with a phase-change material and pipes carrying a heat transfer fluid, for a concentrated solar power plant was analyzed. The effect of a relatively new, high thermal conductivity graphite foam was considered in the phase-change material region. An 8-h discharging transient was analyzed for an LHTES system with and without graphite foam. The phase-change front position at the end of the transient was calculated and used to determine the number of heat transfer fluid pipes in the tank. Optimization of the LHTES system was conducted through varying the thermal conductivity of the phase change material/foam combination, the velocity of the heat transfer fluid, and the diameter and wall thickness of the pipes. It is shown that dramatic reductions in number of the pipes can be achieved with the use of the graphite foam in the phase-change material and the turbulent flow. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Computer experiments are widely used in scientific research to study and predict the behavior of complex systems, which often have responses consisting of a set of nonstationary outputs. The computational cost of simulations at high resolution often is expensive and impractical for parametric studies at different input values. In this article, we develop a Bayesian treed multivariate Gaussian process (BTMGP) as an extension of the Bayesian treed Gaussian process (BTGP) to model the cross-covariance function and the nonstationarity of the multivariate output. We facilitate the computational complexity of the Markov chain Monte Carlo sampler by choosing appropriately the covariance function and prior distributions. Based on the BTMGP, we develop a sequential design of experiment for the input space and construct an emulator. We demonstrate the use of the proposed method in test cases and compare it with alternative approaches. We also apply the sequential sampling technique and BTMGP to model the multiphase flow in a full scale regenerator of a carbon capture unit.

AB Climatic extremes threaten agricultural sustainability worldwide. One approach to increase plant water-use efficiency (WUE) is to introduce crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) into C-3 crops. Such a task requires comprehensive systems-level understanding of the enzymatic and regulatory pathways underpinning this temporal CO2 pump. Here we review the progress that has been made in achieving this goal. Given that CAM arose through multiple independent evolutionary origins, comparative transcriptomics and genomics of taxonomically diverse CAM species are being used to define the genetic 'parts list' required to operate the core CAM functional modules of nocturnal carboxylation, diurnal decarboxylation, and inverse stomatal regulation. Engineered CAM offers the potential to sustain plant productivity for food, feed, fiber, and biofuel production in hotter and drier climates.

AB One of the great challenges in refining macromolecular crystal structures is a low data-to-parameter ratio. Historically, knowledge from chemistry has been used to help to improve this ratio. When a macromolecule crystallizes with more than one copy in the asymmetric unit, the noncrystallographic symmetry relationships can be exploited to provide additional restraints when refining the working model. However, although globally similar, NCS-related chains often have local differences. To allow for local differences between NCS-related molecules, flexible torsion-based NCS restraints have been introduced, coupled with intelligent rotamer handling for protein chains, and are available in phenix. refine for refinement of models at all resolutions.

AB Acoustic droplet ejection (ADE) is a powerful technology that supports crystallographic applications such as growing, improving and manipulating protein crystals. A fragment-screening strategy is described that uses ADE to co-crystallize proteins with fragment libraries directly on MiTeGen MicroMeshes. Co-crystallization trials can be prepared rapidly and economically. The high speed of specimen preparation and the low consumption of fragment and protein allow the use of individual rather than pooled fragments. The Echo 550 liquid-handling instrument (Labcyte Inc., Sunnyvale, California, USA) generates droplets with accurate trajectories, which allows multiple co-crystallization experiments to be discretely positioned on a single data-collection micromesh. This accuracy also allows all components to be transferred through small apertures. Consequently, the crystallization tray is in equilibrium with the reservoir before, during and after the transfer of protein, precipitant and fragment to the micromesh on which crystallization will occur. This strict control of the specimen environment means that the crystallography experiments remain identical as the working volumes are decreased from the few microlitres level to the few nanolitres level. Using this system, lysozyme, thermolysin, trypsin and stachydrine demethylase crystals were co-crystallized with a small 33-compound mini-library to search for fragment hits. This technology pushes towards a much faster, more automated and more flexible strategy for structure-based drug discovery using as little as 2.5 nl of each major component.

AB Sagittarius A(star) harbors the supermassive black hole that lies at the dynamical center of our Galaxy. Sagittarius A(star) spends most of its time in a low luminosity emission state but flares frequently in the infrared and X-ray, increasing up to a few hundred fold in brightness for up to a few hours at a time. The physical processes giving rise to the X-ray flares are uncertain. Here we report the detection with the NuSTAR observatory in Summer and Fall 2012 of four low to medium amplitude X-ray flares to energies up to 79 keV. For the first time, we clearly see that the power-law spectrum of Sagittarius A(star) X-ray flares extends to high energy, with no evidence for a cutoff. Although the photon index of the absorbed power-law fits are in agreement with past observations, we find a difference between the photon index of two of the flares (significant at the 95% confidence level). The spectra of the two brightest flares (similar to 55 times quiescence in the 2-10 keV band) are compared to simple physical models in an attempt to identify the main X-ray emission mechanism, but the data do not allow us to significantly discriminate between them. However, we confirm the previous finding that the parameters obtained with synchrotron models are, for the X-ray emission, physically more reasonable than those obtained with inverse Compton models. One flare exhibits large and rapid (< 100 s) variability, which, considering the total energy radiated, constrains the location of the flaring region to be within similar to 10 Schwarzschild radii of the black hole.

AB We report Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) observations of NuSTAR J033202-2746.8, a heavily obscured, radio-loud quasar detected in the Extended Chandra Deep Field-South, the deepest layer of the NuSTAR extragalactic survey (similar to 400 ks, at its deepest). NuSTAR J033202-2746.8 is reliably detected by NuSTAR only at E > 8 keV and has a very flat spectral slope in the NuSTAR energy band (Gamma = 0.55(-0.64)(+0.62); 3-30 keV). Combining the NuSTAR data with extremely deep observations by Chandra and XMM-Newton (4 Ms and 3 Ms, respectively), we constrain the broad-band X-ray spectrum of NuSTAR J033202-2746.8, indicating that this source is a heavily obscured quasar (N-H = 5.6(-0.8)(+0.9) x 10(23) cm(-2)) with luminosity L10-40 keV approximate to 6.4 x 10(44) erg s(-1). Although existing optical and near-infrared (near-IR) data, as well as follow-up spectroscopy with the Keck and VLT telescopes, failed to provide a secure redshift identification for NuSTAR J033202-2746.8, we reliably constrain the redshift z = 2.00 +/- 0.04 from the X-ray spectral features (primarily from the iron K edge). The NuSTAR spectrum shows a significant reflection component (R = 0.55(-0.37)(+0.44)), which was not constrained by previous analyses of Chandra and XMM-Newton data alone. The measured reflection fraction is higher than the R similar to 0 typically observed in bright radio-loud quasars such as NuSTAR J033202-2746.8, which has L-1.4 GHz approximate to 10(27) W Hz(-1). Constraining the spectral shape of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), including bright quasars, is very important for understanding the AGN population, and can have a strong impact on the modeling of the X-ray background. Our results show the importance of NuSTAR in investigating the broad-band spectral properties of quasars out to high redshift.

AB Nova-like (NL) cataclysmic variables have persistently high mass transfer rates and prominent steady state accretion disks. We present an analysis of infrared observations of 12 NLs obtained from the Two Micron All Sky Survey, the Spitzer Space Telescope, and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer All Sky Survey. The presence of an infrared excess at lambda greater than or similar to 3-5 mu m over the expectation of a theoretical steady state accretion disk is ubiquitous in our sample. The strength of the infrared excess is not correlated with orbital period, but shows a statistically significant correlation (but shallow trend) with system inclination that might be partially (but not completely) linked to the increasing view of the cooler outer accretion disk and disk rim at higher inclinations. We discuss the possible origin of the infrared excess in terms of emission from bremsstrahlung or circumbinary dust, with either mechanism facilitated by the mass outflows (e.g., disk wind/corona, accretion stream overflow, and so on) present in NLs. Our comparison of the relative advantages and disadvantages of either mechanism for explaining the observations suggests that the situation is rather ambiguous, largely circumstantial, and in need of stricter observational constraints.

AB We present barium, carbon, and silicon isotopic compositions of 38 acid-cleaned presolar SiC grains from Murchison. Comparison with previous data shows that acid washing is highly effective in removing barium contamination. Strong depletions in delta(Ba-138/Ba-136) values are found, down to -400 parts per thousand, which can only be modeled with a flatter C-13 profile within the C-13 pocket than is normally used. The dependence of d(Ba-138/Ba-136) predictions on the distribution of C-13 within the pocket in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) models allows us to probe the C-13 profile within the C-13 pocket and the pocket mass in AGB stars. In addition, we provide constraints on the Ne-22(alpha, n)Mg-25 rate in the stellar temperature regime relevant to AGB stars, based on delta(Ba-134/Ba-136) values of mainstream grains. We found two nominally mainstream grains with strongly negative delta(Ba-134/Ba-136) values that cannot be explained by any of the current AGB model calculations. Instead, such negative values are consistent with the intermediate neutron capture process (i process), which is activated by the very late thermal pulse during the post-AGB phase and characterized by a neutron density much higher than the s process. These two grains may have condensed around post-AGB stars. Finally, we report abundances of two p-process isotopes, Ba-130 and Ba-132, in single SiC grains. These isotopes are destroyed in the s process in AGB stars. By comparing their abundances with respect to that of Ba-135, we conclude that there is no measurable decay of Cs-135 (t(1/2) = 2.3 Ma) to Ba-135 in individual SiC grains, indicating condensation of barium, but not cesium into SiC grains before Cs-135 decayed.

AB The intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF) detection of the most recent outburst of the recurrent nova (RN) system RX J0045.4+4154 in the Andromeda galaxy has enabled the unprecedented study of a massive (M > 1.3 M (circle dot)) accreting white dwarf (WD). We detected this nova as part of the near-daily iPTF monitoring of M31 to a depth of R approximate to 21 mag and triggered optical photometry, spectroscopy and soft X-ray monitoring of the outburst. Peaking at an absolute magnitude of M-R = -6.6 mag, and with a decay time of 1 mag per day, it is a faint and very fast nova. It shows optical emission lines of He/N and expansion velocities of 1900-2600 km s(-1) 1-4 days after the optical peak. The Swift monitoring of the X-ray evolution revealed a supersoft source (SSS) with kT(eff) approximate to 90-110 eV that appeared within 5 days after the optical peak, and lasted only 12 days. Most remarkably, this is not the first event from this system, rather it is an RN with a time between outbursts of approximately 1 yr, the shortest known. Recurrent X-ray emission from this binary was detected by ROSAT in 1992 and 1993, and the source was well characterized as a M > 1.3 M (circle dot) WD SSS. Based on the observed recurrence time between different outbursts, the duration and effective temperature of the SS phase, MESA models of accreting WDs allow us to constrain the accretion rate to M > 1.7 Chi 10(-7) M-circle dot yr(-1) and WD mass > 1.30 M-circle dot. If the WD keeps 30% of the accreted material, it will take less than a Myr to reach core densities high enough for carbon ignition (if made of C/O) or electron capture (if made of O/Ne) to end the binary evolution.

AB The lensing power spectrum from cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps will be measured with unprecedented precision with upcoming experiments, including upgrades to the Atacama Cosmology Telescope and the South Pole Telescope. Achieving significant improvements in cosmological parameter constraints, such as percent level errors on sigma(8) and an uncertainty on the total neutrino mass of similar to 50 meV, requires percent level measurements of the CMB lensing power. This necessitates tight control of systematic biases. We study several types of biases to the temperature-based lensing reconstruction signal from foreground sources such as radio and infrared galaxies and the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect from galaxy clusters. These foregrounds bias the CMB lensing signal due to their non-Gaussian nature. Using simulations as well as some analytical models we find that these sources can substantially impact the measured signal if left untreated. However, these biases can be brought to the percent level if one masks galaxies with fluxes at 150 GHz above 1 mJy and galaxy clusters with masses above M-vir = 10(14) M circle dot. To achieve such percent level bias, we find that only modes up to a maximum multipole of l(max) similar to 2500 should be included in the lensing reconstruction. We also discuss ways to minimize additional bias induced by such aggressive foreground masking by, for example, exploring a two-step masking and in-painting algorithm.

AB We present 4.5 mu m luminosity functions for galaxies identified in 178 candidate galaxy clusters at 1.3 < z < 3.2. The clusters were identified as Spitzer/Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) color-selected overdensities in the Clusters Around Radio-Loud AGN project, which imaged 420 powerful radio-loud active galactic nuclei (RLAGNs) at z > 1.3. The luminosity functions are derived for different redshift and richness bins, and the IRAC imaging reaches depths of m* + 2, allowing us to measure the faint end slopes of the luminosity functions. We find that alpha = -1 describes the luminosity function very well in all redshift bins and does not evolve significantly. This provides evidence that the rate at which the low mass galaxy population grows through star formation gets quenched and is replenished by in-falling field galaxies does not have a major net effect on the shape of the luminosity function. Our measurements for m* are consistent with passive evolution models and high formation redshifts (z(f) similar to 3). We find a slight trend toward fainter m* for the richest clusters, implying that the most massive clusters in our sample could contain older stellar populations, yet another example of cosmic downsizing. Modeling shows that a contribution of a star-forming population of up to 40% cannot be ruled out. This value, found from our targeted survey, is significantly lower than the values found for slightly lower redshift, z similar to 1, clusters found in wide-field surveys. The results are consistent with cosmic downsizing, as the clusters studied here were all found in the vicinity of RLAGNs-which have proven to be preferentially located in massive dark matter halos in the richest environments at high redshift-and they may therefore be older and more evolved systems than the general protocluster population.

As a model system, we studied fibroblast cells exposed to a medium highly enriched with D2O. We could show that the experimental technique allows us to reproduce at the cellular level measurements that are normally performed on purified biological molecules. We can obtain information about lipid conformation and distribution, kinetics of hydrogen/deuterium exchange, and the formation of concentration gradients of H and O isotopes in water that are associated with cell metabolism. The implementation of the full field technique in a sequential imaging format gives a description of cellular biochemistry and biophysics that contains both spatial and temporal information.

AB The full-scale mine-by (MB) test conducted in 2008 in the Mont Terri underground rock laboratory (Switzerland) investigated the deformation and the coupled hydro-mechanical behavior of the Opalinus Clay in response to tunnel excavations. The Opalinus Clay is currently under investigation in Switzerland as a potential host rock for geologic disposal of high-level radioactive waste. To further improve the understanding and modeling of the coupled processes and their impact on the performance of a geologic repository in Opalinus Clay, a newly developed two-part Hooke's model (TPHM) was implemented into a geomechanical simulator. A three-dimensional simulation model based on the TPHM was then developed to predict the deformation and pore pressure responses in the near field of the MB Niche 2 test at the Mont Terri Site. The usefulness and validity of the TPHM are demonstrated by the consistency between simulation results and field observations. Simulation results show that the pore pressure disturbance becomes visible at about 11 m ahead of the mine-by excavation advancing face (along the longitudinal direction of the MB Niche). The results also demonstrate that there exists a good correlation between the excavation damage zone (EDZ) and the pore-pressure evolution, which may have important practical implications for monitoring EDZ evolution with pore-pressure sensors. The simulation results, which are sensitive to the constitutive relationships used in the model, capture both the observed displacements and the size of the damage zone, whereas the approach based on the conventional Hooke's law underestimates both. The comparison between simulated and observed results also indicates that laboratory-measured mechanical properties can be used to accurately predict field-scale mechanical deformations, as long as valid constitutive relationships are employed.

AB Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are examples of advanced porous polymeric materials that have emerged in recent years. Their crystalline structure and modular synthesis offer unmatched versatility in their design. By exchanging chemical building blocks, one can both explore the unlimited space of possible structural chemistry within an isoreticular (same crystal topology) series and achieve a wide range of alternative topologies. This reticular paradigm potentially enables the design of structures with any desired porosity and internal surface chemistry. Reliable structure models are typically required in order to predict material properties using a broad spectrum of molecular modeling techniques. In this work, we introduce an algorithm for the assembly of crystalline porous polymer structure models which permits precise control over the underlying topologies of the generated models. This tool has been applied to high-throughput combinatorial structure enumeration and optimization-based automated design. Here, we demonstrate applications of this tool in crystal structure modeling tasks for both MOFs and COFs. Our algorithm is made available within our open source Zeo++ software suite.

AB Using transmission electron microscopy, we have analyzed the structure of nanoporous NiO formed by thermal decomposition of Ni(OH)(2). It was found that a tabular single crystal of Ni(OH)(2) transforms pseudomorphically to an array of topotaxially aligned NiO nanocubes separated by nanoscale pores at a volume fraction of about 50%. High-resolution electron tomography on NiO produced by ex situ heating combined with direct in situ observation of the transformation under the electron beam revealed a dramatic redirection of the reaction front when pores are closed by consolidation of NiO nanocubes around the perimeter of the tabular crystals. This causes local changes in the density, structure, and connectivity of the pores. Insights from this study are of broader interest for the class of decomposition reactions that result in nanocrystalline materials with highly tailored porosity and are significant for the development of devices with impact in fields as varied as energy storage, catalysis, and sensing.

AB The effect of Li-salt mixing in Li-ion battery electrolyte based on LiPF6 in ethylene carbonate (EC) and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) is investigated. The addition of an appropriate amount of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) into the LiPF6-based electrolyte contributes to an electrochemical improvement of the graphite anode. However, the LiFePO4 cathode is difficult to cycle in such an electrolyte due to the severe corrosion of the aluminium current collector by FSI anions. Lithium bis-oxalato borate (LiBOB) is able to passivate Al and suppress the corrosion arising from the FSI anions. An improvement of rate performance and cycling stability for both the LiFePO4 cathode and the graphite anode is obtained in 1.0 mol L-1 LiPF6/EC/EMC electrolyte containing 0.2 mol L-1 LiFSI and 0.2 mol L-1 LiBOB salts.
Moreover, an excellent compatibility between the graphite anode and LiFePO4 cathode in the ternarysalt electrolyte system is further confirmed by the full cell tests. The electrochemical performance improvement of the electrolyte resulting from Li-salt mixing provides a new way for optimization of electrolyte for high performance Li-ion batteries.

AB Ambient temperature sodium-ion batteries are emerging as a new chemistry platform for energy storage technologies. Anodes that consist of carbon have been used for this application due to their highly stable and reversible Na cycling nature. In the search of new carbon materials with various microstructure morphologies, we have synthesized spherical carbon particles via an autogenic process. Na-23 MAS solid-state NMR characterization method as a function of the state of charge of carbon was used to determine that these spherical carbon anodes show pure, reversible Na intercalation into graphene regions: these materials are devoid of nanocavity or nanopore filling of Na. This feature and the spherical morphology create low reactivity behavior with the electrolyte which assists in the material's highly reversible (de)sodiation. Specific capacity is 40 mAhg(-1) at a high-rate of 10C (1.5 Ag-1) thus demonstrating that the graphene element in hard carbons contributes largely to the rate capability.(c) 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Tin particles embedded in graphene (G) sheets have been synthesized by microwave reduction of tin halide (SnCl2.2H(2)O) and graphite oxide (GO) followed by annealing in argon. The microwave reaction resulted in the formation of tin oxide embedded in graphene sheets. Annealing in argon at elevated temperatures initiated carbothermal reduction culminating in the formation of tin decorated graphene sheet composites that were employed as anodes for lithium-ion batteries. X-ray diffraction analysis of the final composite showed the presence of crystalline tin combined with a very small diffraction peak corresponding to (002) plane of graphite. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed decorated graphene layers with tin droplets. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed the presence of graphene and graphene oxide in the composite. Electrochemical cycling response indicated that the tin/graphene composite exhibited initial discharge capacities varying from 790 mAh/g to 850 mAh/g depending on the composition, while a stable reversible capacity of similar to 500 mAh/g was achieved for optimized compositions when cycled at a current density of similar to 100 mA/g in the voltage window of 0.02 to 1.2V vs. Li+/Li. Carbon coating of the Sn/G composite ultimately achieved by decomposition of dextrose using microwave heating significantly improved the electrochemical cycling stability. (c) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

AB When the sta6 (starch-null) strain of the green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is nitrogen starved in acetate and then "boosted" after 2 days with additional acetate, the cells become "obese" after 8 days, with triacylglyceride (TAG)-filled lipid bodies filling their cytoplasm and chloroplasts. To assess the transcriptional correlates of this response, the sta6 strain and the starch-forming cw15 strain were subjected to RNA-Seq analysis during the 2 days prior and 2 days after the boost, and the data were compared with published reports using other strains and growth conditions. During the 2 h after the boost, similar to 425 genes are upregulated >= 2-fold and similar to 875 genes are downregulated >= 2-fold in each strain. Expression of a small subset of "sensitive" genes, encoding enzymes involved in the glyoxylate and Calvin-Benson cycles, gluconeogenesis, and the pentose phosphate pathway, is responsive to culture conditions and genetic background as well as to boosting. Four genes-encoding a diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGTT2), a glycerol-3-P dehydrogenase (GPD3), and two candidate lipases (Cre03.g155250 and Cre17.g735600)-are selectively upregulated in the sta6 strain. Although the bulk rate of acetate depletion from the medium is not boost enhanced, three candidate acetate permease-encoding genes in the GPR1/FUN34/YaaH superfamily are boost upregulated, and 13 of the "sensitive" genes are strongly responsive to the cell's acetate status. A cohort of 64 autophagy-related genes is downregulated by the boost. Our results indicate that the boost serves both to avert an autophagy program and to prolong the operation of key pathways that shuttle carbon from acetate into storage lipid, the combined outcome being enhanced TAG accumulation, notably in the sta6 strain.

AB A series of nitrile-supported coordination polymers of cerium bromide (CeBr3) are reported, including adducts of trimethylacetonitrile, benzonitrile, and glutaronitrile. The identities of the compounds are established on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data, and the compounds are further characterized by elemental analysis and photoluminescence. The photoluminescence spectra of the coordination polymers display considerably redshifted emission compared to the characteristic emission of CeBr3 single crystals.

AB The parallel session (A3), on "Modified Gravity", enjoyed one on the largest number of abstract submissions (over 80), resulting in the selection of 24 oral presentations. The three short papers presented in the following sections are based on the session talks by Arif Mohd on thermodynamics of universal horizons in Einstein-AEther theory, Conformal anomalies in Horava-Lifshitz gravity by Charles Melby-Thompson and detectability of scalar gravitational waves by LIGO and Virgo by Peter Shawhan. They have been selected as a representative sample, to illustrate some of the best in the remarkable and encouraging variety of topics discussed in the session-ranging from highly theoretical, to phenomenological, observational, and experimental-with all these areas playing an integral part in our quest to understand the limits of standard general relativity.

AB This letter describes the manufacture and performance of a monolithic double-layer silicon photonic crystal temperature sensor. The sensor is fabricated on standard silicon wafers using oxide passivation and a combination of isotropic and anisotropic etching, and mounted on the facet of a standard single-mode optical fiber using template-assisted epoxy bonding. The double-layer configuration leads to coupling of the guided resonances in the two photonic crystals and enables sharper resonances and consequently higher temperature sensitivity and better detection limit (0.011 degrees C) than the single-layer counterpart. We experimentally demonstrate that the sensor has a twofold increased temperature sensitivity in terms of reflectivity change at a fixed wavelength (-0.00576/degrees C), and report on electromagnetic simulations explaining the enhanced sensor operation. The photonic crystal fabrication method and template-assisted bonding enable batch-fabrication of the sensors. Their small size, robust construction, and fiber interface make the sensors promising for numerous applications, including sensing in harsh environments.

AB To improve understanding of the convective processes key to the Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) initiation, the Dynamics of the MJO (DYNAMO) and the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM) MJO Investigation Experiment (AMIE) collected 4 months of observations from three radars-the S-band dual-polarization Doppler radar (S-Pol), the C-band Shared Mobile Atmospheric Research and Teaching Radar (SMART-R), and Ka-band ARM zenith radar (KAZR)-along with radiosonde and comprehensive surface meteorological instruments on Addu Atoll, Maldives, in the tropical Indian Ocean. One DYNAMO/AMIE hypothesis suggests that the evolution of shallow and congestus cloud populations is essential to the initiation of the MJO. This study focuses on evaluating the ability of these three radars to document the full spectrum of cloud populations and to construct a merged cloud-precipitation radar dataset that can be used to test this hypothesis. Comparisons between collocated observations from the three radars show that KAZR provides the only reliable estimate of shallow clouds, while S-Pol/SMART-R can reasonably detect congestus within the 30-50-km range in addition to precipitating deep clouds. On the other hand, KAZR underestimates cloud-top heights due to rainfall attenuation in ~34% of the precipitating clouds, and an empirical method to correct KAZR cloud-top height bias is proposed. Finally, a merged KAZR-S-Pol dataset is produced to provide improved cloud-top height estimates, total hydrometeor microphysics, and radiative heating rate retrievals. With this dataset the full spectrum of tropical convective clouds during DYNAMO/AMIE can be reliably constructed and, together with complimentary radiosonde data, it can be used to study the role of shallow and congestus clouds in the initiation of the MJO.

AB Isopiestic vapor pressures were measured at 298.15 K for aqueous NaNO3 + Eu(NO3)(3) solutions, using NaCl(aq) as the reference standard. Measurements were made for both binary (single salt) solutions and for ternary solutions of the following NaNO3 ionic strength fractions: 0.05995, 0.08749, 0.16084; 0.27709, and 0.36313 over the water activity range 0.8951 <= a(w) <= 0.9832. (These ionic strength fractions correspond to NaNO3 molality fractions 0.27675, 0.36519, 0.53489, 0.69695, and 0.77381, respectively.) The results, and those of other studies for the two pure aqueous solutions, were used to determine the Pitzer model parameters for aqueous Eu(NO3)(3) for molalities up to 3 mol kg(-1) and the two ternary (mixture) parameters theta(Eu,Na) = 0.367 +/- 0.0035 and psi(Eu,Na,NO3) = -0.0743 +/- 0.0014. Some deviations of the measurements from the fitted model, of the order of +0.0075 in the osmotic coefficient, were noted for mixtures containing less than about 1 mol kg(-1) total NO3-. The use of the mixture parameters in the Pitzer model yields predicted trace activity coefficients of Eu3+ in 1 mol kg(-1) aqueous NaNO3 almost a factor of 2 greater than if they are omitted.

AB We show a direct formal relationship between the Wang-Landau iteration [PRL 86, 2050 (2000], metadynamics [PNAS 99, 12562 (2002)], and statistical temperature molecular dynamics (STMD) [PRL 97, 050601 (2006)] that are the major work-horses for sampling from generalized ensembles. We demonstrate that STMD, itself derived from the Wang-Landau method, can be made indistinguishable from metadynamics. We also show that Gaussian kernels significantly improve the performance of STMD, highlighting the practical benefits of this improved formal understanding.

AB Density functional theory with optimally tuned range-separated hybrid (OT-RSH) functionals has been recently suggested [Refaely-Abramson et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 2012, 109, 226405] as a nonempirical approach to predict the outer-valence electronic structure of molecules with the same accuracy as many-body perturbation theory. Here, we provide a quantitative evaluation of the OT-RSH approach by examining its performance in predicting the outer-valence electron spectra of several prototypical gas-phase molecules, from aromatic rings (benzene, pyridine, and pyrimidine) to more complex organic systems (terpyrimidinethiol and copper phthalocyanine). For a range up to several electronvolts away from the frontier orbital energies, we find that the outer-valence electronic structure obtained from the OT-RSH method agrees very well (typically within similar to 0.1-0.2 eV) with both experimental photoemission and theoretical many-body perturbation theory data in the GW approximation. In particular, we find that with new strategies for an optimal choice of the short-range fraction of Fock exchange, the OT-RSH approach offers a balanced description of localized and delocalized states. We discuss in detail the sole exception found-a high-symmetry orbital, particular to small aromatic rings, which is relatively deep inside the valence state manifold. Overall, the OT-RSH method is an accurate DFT-based method for outer-valence electronic structure prediction for such systems and is of essentially the same level of accuracy as contemporary GW approaches, at a reduced computational cost.

AB We describe an efficient implementation of the coupled cluster valence bond (CCVB) model. CCVB captures a certain essential part of the description of molecules with strong correlations (SC), which allows it to achieve correct energy profiles when covalent bonds are broken, while maintaining proper spin symmetry and size extensivity. To illustrate treatment of SC in bond breaking, we examine the symmetric dissociation of the sulfur allotropes S-6 and S-8 into triplet S atoms. To show applicability to larger systems and to explore whether CCVB can capture aspects of SC that arise in extended pi systems, we report results for a series of acenes up to 12 fused benzene rings, with active spaces of up to 228 correlated electrons. The lowest-energy CCVB solutions found for two of the largest acenes show signatures consistent with multi-electron SC and partial delocalization.

AB The dispersion-corrected second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2C) approach accurately describes intermolecular interactions in many systems. MP2C, however, expends much computational effort to compute the long-range correlation with MP2, only to discard and replace those contributions with a simpler long-range dispersion correction based on intermolecular perturbation theory. Here, we demonstrate that one can avoid calculating the long-range MP2 correlation by attenuating the Coulomb operator, allowing the dispersion correction to handle the long-range interactions inexpensively. With relatively modest Coulomb attenuation, one obtains results that are very similar to those from conventional MP2C. With more aggressive attenuation, one can remove just enough short-range repulsive exchange-dispersion interactions to compensate for finite basis set errors. Doing so makes it possible to approach complete basis set limit quality results with only an aug-cc-pVTZ basis, resulting in substantial computational savings. Further computational savings could be achieved by reformulating the MP2C algorithm to exploit the increased sparsity of the two-electron integrals.

AB Cholesterol trafficking, which is an essential function in mammalian cells, is intimately connected to molecular-scale interactions through cholesterol modulation of membrane structure and dynamics and interaction with membrane receptors. Since these effects of cholesterol occur on micro- to millisecond time scales, it is essential to develop accurate coarse-grained simulation models that can reach these time scales. Cholesterol has been shown experimentally to thicken the membrane and increase phospholipid tail order between 0 and 40% cholesterol, above which these effects plateau or slightly decrease. Here, we showed that the published MARTINI coarse-grained force-field for phospholipid (POPC) and cholesterol fails to capture these effects. Using reference atomistic simulations, we systematically modified POPC and cholesterol bonded parameters in MARTINI to improve its performance. We showed that the corrections to pseudobond angles between glycerol and the lipid tails and around the oleoyl double bond particle (the "angle-corrected model") slightly improves the agreement of MARTINI with experimentally measured thermal, elastic, and dynamic properties of POPC membranes. The angle-corrected model improves prediction of the thickening and ordering effects up to 40% cholesterol but overestimates these effects at higher cholesterol concentration. In accordance with prior work that showed the cholesterol rough face methyl groups are important for limiting cholesterol self-association, we revised the coarse-grained representation of these methyl groups to better match cholesterol-cholesterol radial distribution functions from atomistic simulations. In addition, by using a finer-grained representation of the branched cholesterol tail than MARTINI, we improved predictions of lipid tail order and bilayer thickness across a wide range of concentrations. Finally, transferability testing shows that a model incorporating our revised parameters into DOPC outperforms other CG models in a DOPC/cholesterol simulation series, which further argues for its efficacy and generalizability. These results argue for the importance of systematic optimization for coarse-graining biologically important molecules like cholesterol with complicated molecular structure.

AB The planned life extension of nuclear reactors throughout the US and abroad will cause reactor vessel and internals materials to be exposed to more neutron irradiation than was originally intended. A nonde-structive evaluation (NDE) method to monitor radiation damage would enable safe and cost-effective continued operation of nuclear reactors. Radiation damage in reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steels causes microstructural changes that leave the material in an embrittled state. Nonlinear ultrasound is an NDE technique quantified by the measurable acoustic nonlinearity parameter, which is sensitive to microstructural changes in metallic materials such as dislocations, precipitates and their combinations. Recent research has demonstrated the sensitivity of the acoustic nonlinearity parameter to increasing neutron fluence in representative RPV steels. The current work considers nonlinear ultrasonic experiments conducted on similar RPV steel samples that had a combination of irradiation, annealing, re-irradiation, and/or re-annealing to a total neutron fluence of 0.5-5 x 10(19) n/cm(2) (E > 1 MeV) at an irradiation temperature of 290 degrees C. The acoustic nonlinearity parameter generally increased with increasing neutron fluence, and consistently decreased from the irradiated to the annealed state over different levels of neutron fluence. Results of the measured acoustic nonlinearity parameter are compared with those from previous measurements on other RPV steel samples. This comprehensive set of results illustrates the dependence of the measured acoustic nonlinearity parameter on neutron fluence, material composition, irradiation temperature and annealing.

HELIUM; IRON
AB kinetics of hydrogen desorption from zirconium hydride is important in many nuclear design and safety applications. In this paper, a coordinated experimental and modeling study has been used to explicitly demonstrate the applicability of existing kinetic theories for hydrogen desorption from zirconium hydride and alpha-zirconium. A static synthesis method was used to produce delta-zirconium hydride, and the crystallographic phases of the zirconium hydride were confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Three obvious stages, involving delta-zirconium hydride, a two-phase region, and a-zirconium, were observed in the hydrogen desorption spectra of two zirconium hydride specimens with H/Zr ratios of 1.62 and 1.64, respectively, which were obtained using thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). A continuous, one-dimensional, two-phase moving boundary model, coupled with the zero- and second-order kinetics of hydrogen desorption from delta-zirconium hydride and alpha-zirconium, respectively, has been developed to reproduce the TDS experimental results. A comparison of the modeling predictions with the experimental results indicates that a zero-order kinetic model is valid for description of hydrogen flux away from the delta-hydride phase, and that a second-order kinetic model works well for hydrogen desorption from alpha-Zr if the activation energy of desorption is optimized to be 70% of the value reported in the literature.

AB Atomistic simulations of liquid alloys face the challenge of correctly modeling basic thermodynamic properties. In this work we present an interatomic potential for this system, as well as a study of physical properties of Li-Pb alloys. Despite the complexity due to Li-Pb being a compound forming system where charge transfer is expected, we show here how the empirical EAM formalism is able to satisfactorily describe several physical properties in a wide range of Li concentration. Application of our potential to Li-Pb eutectic allows us to correctly predict many physical properties observed experimentally and calculated with ab initio techniques, providing in this way a potential suitable for future studies in the context of tritium breeder blanket designs in Fusion technology.

TI Crystal structure of high-Zr inclusions in an alloy containing U, Pu,

SO JOURNAL OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS

DT Article
ID ZIRCONIUM; TEMPERATURE; FUEL
AB Researchers commonly observe high-Zr inclusions in actinide-Zr alloys. As there is very little published data on the crystal structures of these inclusions, it has generally been assumed that the inclusions were impurity-stabilized ot-Zr. However, new electron-diffraction data from two high-Zr inclusions in an alloy containing Ii, Pu, Np, Am, Zr, and rare-earth elements show that these inclusions are not ot-Zr (which has a hexagonal structure) but, instead, have a face-centered cubic structure. This data is unique in that it combines single-crystal diffraction patterns and microchemical analyses from individual inclusions.
More data on other high-Zr inclusions is clearly required. However, the present results suggest that caution is needed in assuming that all high-Zr inclusions in actinide-Zr alloys are ot-Zr. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Density functional theory (DFT) is used to calculate the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of transmutant Mg in 3C-SiC due to high-energy neutron irradiation associated with the fusion nuclear environment. The formation and binding energies of intrinsic defects, Mg-related defects, and clusters in 3C-S1C are systematically calculated. The minimum energy paths and activation energies during point defect migration and small cluster evolution are studied using a generalized solid-state nudged elastic band (G-SSNEB) method with DFT energy calculations. Stable defect structures and possible defect migration mechanisms are identified. The evolution of binding energies during Mg2Si formation demonstrates that the formation of Mg2Si needs to overcome a critical nucleus size and nucleation barrier. It is found that C vacancies promote the formation of the Mg2Si nucleus, and formation of which results in a compressive stress field around the nucleus. These data are important inputs in meso- and macro-scale modeling and experiments to understand and predict the impact of Mg on phase stability, microstructure evolution, and performance of SiC and SiC-based materials during long-term neutron exposures.

TI Simulation of the impact of 3-D porosity distribution in metallic U-10Zr
fuels
SO JOURNAL OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS
LA English
DT Article
ID FAST-REACTOR FUELS; THERMAL-EXPANSION; PERFORMANCE CODE; HEAT; BEHAVIOR
AB Evolution of porosity generated in metallic U-Zr fuel irradiated in fast spectrum reactors leads to changes in fuel properties and impacts important phenomena such as heat transport and constituent redistribution. The porosity is generated as a result of the accumulation of fission gases and is affected by the possible bond sodium infiltration into the fuel. Typically, the impact of porosity development on properties, such as thermal conductivity, is accounted for through empirical correlations that are dependent on porosity and infiltrated sodium fractions. Currently available simulation tools make it possible to take into account fuel 3-D porosity distributions, potentially eliminating the need for such correlations. This development allows for a more realistic representation of the porosity evolution in metallic fuel and creates a framework for truly mechanistic fuel development models.
In this work, COMSOL multi-physics simulation platform is used to model 3-D porosity distributions and simulate heat transport in metallic U-10Zr fuel. Available experimental data regarding microstructural evolution of fuel that was irradiated in EBR-II and associated phase stability information are used to guide the simulation. The impact of changes in porosity characteristics on material properties is estimated and the results are compared with calculated temperature distributions. The simulations demonstrate the developed capability and importance of accounting for detailed porosity distribution features for accurate fuel performance evaluation. Published by Elsevier B.V.

MATRIX; ZR; INTERDIFFUSION
AB Due to the limitation of maximum uranium load achievable by dispersion fuel type, the Global Threat Reduction Initiative is developing an advanced monolithic fuel to convert US high-performance research reactors to low-enriched uranium. Hot-isostatic-press (HIP) bonding was the single process downselected to bond monolithic U-Mo fuel meat to aluminum alloy cladding. A diffusion barrier was applied to the U-Mo fuel meat by roll-bonding process to prevent extensive interaction between fuel meat and aluminum-alloy cladding. Microstructural characterization was performed on fresh fuel plates fabricated at Idaho National Laboratory. Interfaces between the fuel meat, the cladding, and the diffusion barrier, as well as between the U-10Mo fuel meat and the Al-6061 cladding, were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Preliminary results indicate that the interfaces contain many different phases while decomposition, second phases, and chemical banding were also observed in the fuel meat. The important attributes of the HIP-bonded monolithic fuel are:
A typical Zr diffusion barrier with a thickness of 25 gm.
A transverse cross section that exhibits relatively equiaxed grains with an average grain diameter of 10 gm.
Chemical banding, in some areas more than 100 gm in length, that is very pronounced in longitudinal (i.e., rolling) direction with Mo concentration varying from 7-13 wt.%.
Decomposed areas containing plate-shaped low-Mo phase.
A typical Zr/cladding interaction layer with a thickness of 1-2 gm.
A visible UZr2 bearing layer with a thickness of 1-2 pm.
Mo-rich precipitates (mainly Mo2Zr, forming a layer in some areas) followed by a Mo-depleted sublayer between the visible UZr2-bearing layer and the U-Mo matrix.
No excessive interaction between cladding and the uncoated fuel edge
Cladding-to-cladding bonding that exhibits no cracks or porosity with second phases high in Mg, Si, and 0 decorating the bond line.
Some of these attributes might be critical to the irradiation performance of monolithic U-10Mo nuclear fuel.
There are several issues or concerns that warrant more detailed study, such as precipitation along the cladding-to-cladding bond line, chemical banding, uncovered fuel-zone edge, and the interaction layer between the U-Mo fuel meat and zirconium. Future post-irradiation examination results will focus, among other things, on identifying in-reactor failure mechanisms and, eventually, directing further fresh fuel characterization efforts.

AB This work aims at utilizing modern computational microstructural modeling tools to accelerate the understanding of phase stability in austenitic steels under extended thermal aging. Using the CALPHAD approach, a thermodynamic database OCTANT (ORNL Computational Thermodynamics for Applied Nuclear Technology), including elements of Fe, C, Cr, Ni, Mn, Mo, Si, and Ti, has been developed with a focus on reliable thermodynamic modeling of precipitate phases in AISI 316 austenitic stainless steels. The thermodynamic database was validated by comparing the calculated results with experimental data from commercial 316 austenitic steels. The developed computational thermodynamics was then coupled with precipitation kinetics simulation to understand the temporal evolution of precipitates in austenitic steels under long-term thermal aging (up to 600,000 h) at a temperature regime from 300 to 900 degrees C. This study discusses the effect of dislocation density and difusion coefficients on the precipitation kinetics at low temperatures, which shed a light on investigating the phase stability and transformation in austenitic steels used in light water reactors.

ID STAINLESS-STEEL; VOID NUCLEATION; SILICON; 304-STAINLESS-STEEL;
HYDROGEN; BEHAVIOR; GROWTH
AB Iron-based austenitic alloys are often observed to develop magnetic properties during irradiation, possibly associated with the radiation-induced acceleration of ferrite phase formation. Some of the parametric sensitivities of this phenomenon have been addressed using a series of alloys irradiated in the BOR-60 reactor at 593 K. An increase in magnetic phase amount for all alloys was observed over the 0-12 dpa dose range. However, magnetic phase (ferrite according to TEM results) did not appear to continuously increase at higher doses (above 12 dpa) but did tend to saturate. The formation of a magnetic phase in austenitic stainless steels during irradiation at 593 K appeared to be sensitive to alloy composition. It was found that silicon and manganese accelerated ferrite accumulation in the dose range of 0-12 dpa, whereas carbon and probably molybdenum resisted it. Also, an increase in grain size resisted ferrite formation, but cold work was found to stimulate it. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI Theoretical confirmation of Ga-stabilized anti-ferromagnetism in
plutonium metal
SO JOURNAL OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS
LA English
DT Article
ID GENERALIZED GRADIENT APPROXIMATION; CRYSTAL-STRUCTURES; DELTA-PU
AB Density functional theory (DFT) for plutonium metal is shown to be consistent with recent magnetic measurements that suggest anti-ferromagnetism in Pu-Ga alloys at low temperatures. The theoretical model predicts a stabilization of the face-centered-cubic (fcc, delta) form of plutonium in an antiferromagnetic configuration when alloyed with gallium. The ordered magnetic phase occurs because Ga removes the mechanical instability that exists for unalloyed delta-Pu. The cause of the Ga-induced stabilization is a combination of a lowering of the band (kinetic) and electrostatic (Coulomb) energies for the cubic relative to the tetragonal phase. Similarly, gallium plays an important role in stabilizing antiferromagnetism in the tetragonal P4/mmm Pu3Ga compound. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The mechanical properties of AISI 304 stainless steel irradiated for over a decade in the Experimental Breeder Reactor (EBR-II) were measured using miniature mechanical testing methods. The shear punch method was used to evaluate the shear strengths of the neutron-irradiated steel and a correlation factor was empirically determined to predict its tensile strength. The strength of the stainless steel slightly decreased with increasing irradiation temperature, and significantly increased with increasing dose until it saturated above approximately 5 dpa. An effective tensile strain hardening exponent was also obtained from the data which shows a relative decrease in ductility of steel with increased irradiation damage. Ferromagnetic measurements were used to observe and deduce the effects of the stress-induced austenite to martensite transformation as a result of shear punch testing. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

AB This article proposes a new method to estimate the thermal conductivity of SiC/SiC composites subjected to neutron irradiation. The modeling method bridges different scales from the atomic scale to the scale of a 2D SiC/SiC composite. First, it computes the irradiation-induced point defects in perfect crystalline SiC using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to compute the defect thermal resistance as a function of vacancy concentration and irradiation dose. The concept of defect thermal resistance is explored explicitly in the MD data using vacancy concentrations and thermal conductivity decrements due to phonon scattering. Point defect-induced swelling for chemical vapor deposited (CVD) SiC as a function of irradiation dose is approximated by scaling the corresponding MD results for perfect crystal beta-sic to experimental data for CVD-SiC at various temperatures. The computed thermal defect resistance, thermal conductivity as a function of grain size, and definition of defect thermal resistance are used to compute the thermal conductivities of CVD-SiC, isothermal chemical vapor infiltrated (ICVI) SiC and nearly-stoichiometric SiC fibers. The computed fiber and ICVI-SiC matrix thermal conductivities are then used as input for an Eshelby-Mori-Tanaka approach to compute the thermal conductivities of 2D SiC/SiC composites subjected to neutron irradiation within the same irradiation doses. Predicted thermal conductivities for an irradiated Tyranno-SA/ICVI-SiC composite are found to be comparable to available experimental data for a similar composite ICVI-processed with these fibers.

The evaluation includes a brief review of core degradation processes under design-basis and beyond-design-basis transient conditions. Three general strategies for accident tolerant fuels are being explored: modification of current state-of-the-art zirconium alloy cladding to further improve oxidation resistance (including use of coatings), replacement of Zr alloy cladding with an alternative oxidation-resistant high-performance cladding, and replacement of the monolithic ceramic oxide fuel with alternative fuel forms.

ID CLADDING CANDIDATE MATERIALS; HIGH-TEMPERATURE; ENVIRONMENTS; OXIDATION
AB The feasibility of using SiCf-SiCm composites in light water reactor (LWR) fuel designs was evaluated. The evaluation was motivated by the desire to improve fuel performance under normal and accident conditions. The Fukushima accident once again highlighted the need for improved fuel materials that can maintain fuel integrity to higher temperatures for longer periods of time. The review identified many benefits as well as issues in using the material. Issues perceived as presenting the biggest challenges to the concept were identified to be flux gradient induced differential volumetric swelling, fragmentation and thermal shock resistance. The oxidation of silicon and its release into the coolant as silica has been identified as an issue because existing plant systems have limited ability for its removal. Detailed evaluation using available literature data and testing as part of this evaluation effort have eliminated most of the major concerns. The evaluation identified Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) channel, BWR fuel water tube, and Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) guide tube as feasible applications for SiC composite. A program has been initiated to resolve some of the remaining issues and to generate physical property data to support the design of commercial fuel components. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

TI Stability of SiC-matrix microencapsulated fuel constituents at relevant

SO JOURNAL OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS
LA English

ID SILICON-CARBIDE; IRRADIATION; TEMPERATURES
AB This paper addresses certain key feasibility issues facing the application of SiC-matrix microencapsulated fuels for light water reactor application. Issues addressed are the irradiation stability of the SiC-based nano-powder ceramic matrix under LWR-relevant irradiation conditions, the presence or extent of reaction of the SiC matrix with zirconium-based cladding, the stability of the inner and outer pyrolytic graphite layers of the TRISO coating system at this uncharacteristically low irradiation temperature, and the state of the particle-matrix interface following irradiation which could possibly affect thermal transport. In the process of determining these feasibility issues microstructural evolution and change in dimension and thermal conductivity was studied. As a general finding the SiC matrix was found to be quite stable with behavior similar to that of CVD SiC. In magnitude the irradiation-induced swelling of the matrix material was slightly higher and irradiation-degraded thermal conductivity was slightly lower as compared to CVD SiC. No significant reaction of this SiC-based nano-powder ceramic matrix material with Zircaloy was observed. Irradiation of the sample in the 320-360 degrees C range to a maximum dose of 7.7 x 10(25) n/m(2) (E > 0.1 MeV) did not have significant negative impact on the constituent layers of the TRISO coating system. At the highest dose studied, layer structure and interface integrity remained essentially unchanged with good apparent thermal transport through the microsphere to the surrounding matrix.

AB The US Department of Energy is considering a new nuclear fuel that would be less susceptible to ruptures during a loss-of-coolant accident. The fuel would consist of tristructural isotropic coated particles with dense uranium nitride (UN) kernels with diameters of 650 or 800 gm. The objectives of this effort are to make uranium oxide microspheres with adequately dispersed carbon nanoparticles and to convert these microspheres into UN spheres, which could be then sintered into kernels. Recent improvements to the internal gelation process were successfully applied to the production of uranium gel spheres with different concentrations of carbon black. After the spheres were washed and dried, a simple two-step heat profile was used to produce porous microspheres with a chemical composition of UC0.07-0.10N0.90-0.93. The first step involved heating the microspheres to 2023 K in a vacuum, and in the second step, the microspheres were held at 1873 K for 6 h in flowing nitrogen. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.

AB The US Department of Energy is developing a new nuclear fuel that would be less susceptible to ruptures during a loss-of-coolant accident. The fuel would consist of tristructural isotropic coated particles with uranium nitride (UN) kernels with diameters near 825 mu m. This effort explores factors involved in the conversion of uranium oxide-carbon microspheres into UN kernels. An analysis of previous studies with sufficient experimental details is provided. Thermodynamic calculations were made to predict pressures of carbon monoxide and other relevant gases for several reactions that can be involved in the conversion of uranium oxides and carbides into UN. Uranium oxide-carbon microspheres were heated in a microbalance with an attached mass spectrometer to determine details of calcining and carbothermic conversion in argon, nitrogen, and vacuum. A model was derived from experiments on the vacuum conversion to uranium oxide-carbide kernels. UN-containing kernels were fabricated using this vacuum conversion as part of the overall process. Carbonitride kernels of similar to 89% of theoretical density were produced along with several observations concerning the different stages of the process. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB A thermomechanical assessment of the LWR application of TRISO fuel with UN kernels was performed. Fission product release under operational and transient temperature conditions was determined by extrapolation from fission product recoil calculations and limited data from irradiated UN pellets. Both fission recoil and diffusive release were considered and internal particle pressures computed for both 650 and 800 mu m diameter kernels as a function of buffer layer thickness. These pressures were used in conjunction with a finite element program to compute the radial and tangential stresses generated within a TRISO particle undergoing burnup. Creep and swelling of the inner and outer pyrolytic carbon layers were included in the analyses. A measure of reliability of the TRISO particle was obtained by computing the probability of survival of the SiC barrier layer and the maximum tensile stress generated in the pyrolytic carbon layers from internal pressure and thermomechanics of the layers. These reliability estimates were obtained as functions of the kernel diameter, buffer layer thickness, and pyrolytic carbon layer thickness. The value of the probability of survival at the end of irradiation was inversely proportional to the maximum pressure. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Application of advanced oxidation-resistant iron alloys as light water reactor fuel cladding is proposed. The motivations are based on specific limitations associated with zirconium alloys, currently used as fuel cladding, under design-basis and beyond-design-basis accident scenarios. Using a simplified methodology, gains in safety margins under severe accidents upon transition to advanced oxidation-resistant iron alloys as fuel cladding are showcased. Oxidation behavior, mechanical properties, and irradiation effects of advanced iron alloys are briefly reviewed and compared to zirconium alloys as well as historic austenitic stainless steel cladding materials. Neutronic characteristics of iron-alloy-clad fuel bundles are determined and fed into a simple economic model to estimate the impact on nuclear electricity production cost. Prior experience with steel cladding is combined with the current understanding of the mechanical properties and irradiation behavior of advanced iron alloys to identify a combination of cladding thickness reduction and fuel enrichment increase (similar to 0.5%) as an efficient route to offset any penalties in cycle length, due to higher neutron absorption in the iron alloy cladding, with modest impact on the economics.

TI Post-quench ductility evaluation of Zircaloy-4 and select iron alloys
under design basis and extended LOCA conditions
SO JOURNAL OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS

ID CLADDING CANDIDATE MATERIALS; HIGH-TEMPERATURE; OXIDATION; ENVIRONMENTS
AB Oxidation experiments were conducted at 1200 degrees C in flowing steam with tubing specimens of Zircaloy-4, 317, 347 stainless steels, and the commercial FeCrAl alloy APMT. The purpose was to determine the oxidation behavior and post-quench ductility under postulated and extended LOCA conditions. The parabolic rate constant for Zircaloy-4 tubing samples at 1200 degrees C was determined to be k = 2.173 x 10(7)g(2)/cm(4)/s, in excellent agreement with the Cathcart-Pawel correlation. The APMT alloy experienced the slowest oxidation rate among all materials examined in this work. The ductility of post-quenched samples was evaluated by ring compression tests at 135 degrees C. For Zircaloy-4, the ductile to brittle transition occurs at an equivalent cladding reacted (ECR) of 19.3%. SS-347 was still ductile after being oxidized for 2400 s (CP-ECR approximate to 150%), but the maximum load was reduced significantly owing to the metal layer thickness reduction. No ductility decrease was observed for the post-quenched APMT samples oxidized up to 4 h. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Molybdenum has recently gained attention as a candidate cladding material for use in light water reactors. Its excellent high temperature mechanical properties and stability under irradiation suggest that it could offer benefits to performance under a wide range of reactor conditions, but little is known about its oxidation behavior in water vapor containing atmospheres. The current study was undertaken to elucidate the oxidation behavior of molybdenum in water vapor environments to 1200 degrees C in order to provide an initial assessment of its feasibility as a light water reactor cladding. Initial observations indicate that at temperatures below 1000 degrees C, the kinetics of mass loss in water vapor would not be detrimental to cladding integrity during an off-normal event. Above 1000 degrees C, degradation is more rapid but remains slower than observed for optimized zirconium cladding alloys. The effect of hydrogen water vapor and oxygen water vapor mixtures on material loss was also explored at elevated temperatures. Parts-per-million levels of either hydrogen or oxygen will minimally impact performance, but hydrogen contents in excess of 1000 ppm were observed to limit volatilization at 1000 degrees C.

PROPERTIES
AB Silicon carbide (SiC) continuous fiber-reinforced, SiC-matrix composites (Sic/Sic composites) are industrially available materials that are promising for applications in nuclear environments. The SiC/SiC composites consisting of near-stoichiometric SiC fibers, stoichiometric and fully crystalline SiC matrices, and the pyrocarbon (PyC) or multilayered PyC/SiC interphase between the fiber and the matrix are considered particularly resistant to very high radiation environments. This paper provides a summary compilation of the properties of these composites, specifically those with the chemically vapor-infiltrated (CVO SiC matrices, including newly obtained results. The properties discussed are both in unirradiated condition and after neutron irradiation to intermediate fluence levels (most data are for , and the average value of the electron density, = r[1.41/](4.76), at the bond critical point, r(c), between pairs of bonded M-O atoms. The expression applies to a host of crystals and molecules comprising M-atoms for all rows, r, of the periodic table. The values correlate with bond strength and resonance bond strength for the M-O bonded interactions on a one-to-one basis, demonstrating that the Pauling bond strength is a direct measure of the electron density involved in a bonded interaction and the accumulation of the electron density between the bonded pair. The widespread applications of the Brown-Shannon bond valence model in the Earth sciences and material science owes much of its success to the direct connection that exists between bond strength and the quantum mechanical observable, the electron density distribution. Compelling evidence is presented that supports the argument that the Si-O bonded interactions within siloxane molecules and silicate crystals are fundamentally the same, and that the local Si-O bonded interactions comprising molecules are, at the very core, equivalent to the Si-O bonded interactions observed in silicate crystals. Bond paths between the O atoms comprising shared polyhedral edges are consistent with Pauling's third rule, the shorter the O-O shared edges, the greater the accumulation of the electron density between the O atoms, the greater the stabilization of the shared edges.

AB Bulk Ti65Fe35 and (Ti65Fe35)(96.15-x)Sn3.85Nbx (x = 0, 3, 5 and 7 at.%) alloys were prepared by cold crucible levitation melting, and tested in compression at room temperature. The Sn and Nb modified hypereutectic Ti-Fe alloys exhibited improved mechanical properties under compression. (Ti65Fe35)(93.15)Sn3.85Nb3 alloy displayed an ultimate compressive strength of 2.7 GPa and a compressive plastic strain of 15%. Electron microscope observations revealed Ti-Fe(Sn,Nb) alloys having a bimodal microstructure with micrometer-scale primary TiFe dendrites distributed in an ultrafine eutectic (-Ti+TiFe) matrix. The orientation relationship of -Ti with TiFe phases is TiFe (011)[100] vertical bar -Ti (011)[100]. The improved mechanical properties are attributed to the morphology of the phase constituents and the larger lattice mismatches between -Ti and TiFe phases due to the additions of Sn and Nb.

AB OBJECTIVE: The significant weight loss observed with combination naltrexone-sustained release (SR) 32mg and bupropion SR 360mg (NB32) therapy is thought to be due, in part, to bupropion stimulation of hypothalamic pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, and naltrexone blockade of opioid receptor-mediated POMC autoinhibition, but the neurobiological mechanisms are not fully understood. We assessed changes in brain reactivity to food cues before and after NB32 treatment.
METHODS: Forty women (31.1 +/- 8.1 years; body mass index: 32.5 +/- 3.9) received 4 weeks of NB32 or placebo, and were instructed to maintain their dietary and exercise habits. Functional magnetic resonance imaging responses (analyzed using SPM2 and clusters (> 100 pixels)) to a 5-min food video (preparation of the subject's favorite food) and a 5-min neutral video (manipulation of neutral objects) under conditions of mild food deprivation (similar to 14 h) were assessed before and after treatment.
RESULTS: The food cues video induced positive brain activation in visual and prefrontal cortices, insula and subcortical brain regions. The group-by-treatment interaction on regional brain activation was significant and showed that whereas NB32 attenuated the activation in the hypothalamus in response to food cues (P<0.01), it enhanced activation in regions involved in inhibitory control (anterior cingulate), internal awareness (superior frontal, insula, superior parietal) and memory (hippocampal) regions (whole-brain analysis; P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: Blunting the hypothalamic reactivity to food cues while enhancing the activation of regions involved with self-control and internal awareness by NB32 might underlie its therapeutic benefits in obesity.

DE Friction stir spot welding; Advanced high strength steel; Joint

ID CARBON-STEEL; ALUMINUM
AB High speed friction stir spot welding was applied to 1.2 mm thick DP 980 steel sheets under different welding conditions, using PCBN tools. The range of vertical feed rates used during welding was 2.5 similar to 102 mm per minute, while the range of spindle speeds was 2500 similar to 6000 rpm. Extended testing was carried out for five different sets of welding conditions, until tool failure. These welding conditions resulted in vertical welding loads of 3.6 similar to 8.2 kN and lap shear tension failure loads of 8.9 similar to 11.1 kN. PCBN tools were shown, in the best case, to provide lap shear tension failure loads at or above 9 kN for 900 spot welds, after which tool failure caused a rapid drop in joint strength. Joint strength was shown to be strongly correlated to bond area, which was measured from weld cross sections. Failure modes of the tested joints were a function of bond area and softening that occurred in the heat-affected zone.

AB Organic dyes are a viable alternative to silicon for energy conversion. Using simulations from first-principles, we show that chemical manipulation is a powerful tool for tuning the optical absorption spectra of a special class of dyes in a way that is convenient for exploitation in dyesensitized solar cells. Specifically, we have carried out density functional theory calculations on three Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes with electron-donor ancillary ligands. These complexes were recently developed to study how different electron-donor ancillary ligands affect the photophysical and electrochemical properties of these dyes for light harvesting and photon-to-electron conversion efficiency. We found that the electron-donor ancillary ligands significantly enhance the light harvesting in the visible and the near-infrared regions relative to the reference dye N3. Furthermore, we detected a decrease in the ionization potential, which improves the energy alignment with the redox potentials of the electrolyte. These findings demonstrated that better organic were developed. materials for energy applications

AB We investigated the atomic structure and infrared spectra of the alumina(0001)/water interface, using first-principles molecular dynamics simulations based on density functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation. The computed structural properties of the interface are in good agreement with the results of synchrotron X-ray experiments. Detailed analyses of the computed infrared spectra revealed two types of water molecules at the hydrophilic oxide/water interface: molecules participating in strong "ice-like" hydrogen bonding with the oxide surface and molecules involved in weaker "liquid-like" hydrogen bonding. Our results provide a molecular interpretation of the "ice-like" and "liquid-like" bands observed in sum-frequency vibrational spectroscopy experiments and underscore the significance of strong hydrogen-bonding interactions in determining the orientation of interfacial water molecules.

AB Pt nanoparticles were grown on titanium oxide and tungsten oxide at 200 degrees C by Pt atomic layer deposition (ALD) using platinum(II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate [Pt(hfac)(2)] and formalin as the reactants. The Pt ALD surface chemistry and Pt nanoparticles were examined using in situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) vibrational spectroscopy and ex situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The FTIR spectra identified the surface species after the Pt(hfac)(2) and formalin exposures on TiO2. An infrared feature at similar to 2100 cm(-1) in the FTIR spectrum after Pt(hfac)(2) and formalin exposures on TiO2 was consistent with CO on Pt, revealing that Pt(hfac)(2) and formalin exposures led to the formation of Pt nanoparticles. The FTIR spectrum of Pt(hfac)(2) on TiO2 was very similar to the FTIR spectrum of hexafluoroacetylacetone (hfacH) on TiO2. The FTIR spectra also revealed that hfacH blocked the adsorption of Pt(hfac)(2) on TiO2. The coverage of the Pt nanoparticles could be reduced by preadsorbing hfacH on TiO2 prior to Pt(hfac)(2) adsorption. Time-dependent FTIR spectra showed that the coverage of hfacH and its adsorption products were reduced versus time following hfacH exposure. Pt ALD on WOx at 200 degrees C led to the growth of Pt nanoparticles that were fairly similar to the Pt nanoparticles from Pt ALD on TiO2. The TEM images revealed that the size of the Pt nanoparticles on WOx could be adjusted by varying the number of Pt ALD cycles. Because of site-blocking by the hfac ligands, the Pt(hfac)(2) and formalin reactants required many more ALD cycles for nucleation and growth compared with other Pt ALD surface chemistries.

AB An inverse CeO2/CuO catalyst in which the CuO component has been doped with Zn is examined in comparison with the analogous Zn-free catalyst with the aim of enhancing the performance of this type of systems for preferential oxidation of CO in H-2-rich stream (CO-PROX). The catalysts are characterized by XRD, Raman spectroscopy, XANES-EXAFS, XPS, and HRTEM. Their catalytic properties are explored in conjunction with redox properties studied by XANES, XRD, and DRIFTS under reaction conditions with MS detection. It is shown that the presence of zinc enhances the CO-PROX performance of the inverse system through decreasing its H-2 oxidation activity, while the CO oxidation activity does not practically become affected. This is related to an increase in the CO2 selectivity of the catalyst that has been attributed to a hindering of the reduction of the CuO component, thus preventing the formation of H-2 oxidation active sites under reaction conditions. A model of the structural and catalytic effects induced by the presence of zinc in the catalyst is proposed on the basis of the multitechnique approach employed.

AB Results of an experimental and computational study of CO2 adsorption onto a CeOX(100) thin-film surface are reported. For both oxidized CeO2(100) and reduced CeO1.7(100), a 5 L dose of CO2 at 180 K resulted in mainly carbonate ([CO3](2-)) on the surface with a minute amount of physisorbed CO2 that desorbed by 250 K based on C 1s and O Is photoemission and C k-edge NEXAFS. No evidence for the formation of a carboxylate intermediate was indicated. Angle-dependent C k-edge NEXAFS revealed that the carbonate species was oriented parallel to the surface suggesting a tridentate configuration. Various adsorption geometries were tested using DFT PBE+U calculations. The most stable configuration was a carbonate with its molecular plane parallel to the surface and each O atom bonded to two Ce cations. Through temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), it was determined that CO2 was the sole reaction product. CO was not detected in the TPD for the reduced surface, indicating that reoxidation of a reduced CeO2-X(100) surface by CO2 did not occur. TPD and photoemission indicated that the coverage and the thermal stability of the [CO3](2-) intermediate were greater on partially reduced CeO1.7(100) compared to CeO2(100).

AB The structures of Al-modified anatase TiO2 supports were analyzed using traditional analysis techniques of X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and N-2 sorption as well as X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy, Al-27 magic-angle spinning NMR, and low-temperature heat capacity. The combined results from these characterizations reveal that the Al dopant is incorporated either on the surface or in vacancies depending on the details of the synthetic method used. Alumina incorporated on the surface stabilizes TiO2 by lowering the surface energy of anatase and stabilizing planes with high surface energy that would otherwise join to achieve a reduced surface energy. On the other hand, Al incorporated in TiO2 vacancies stabilizes the structure through increasing lattice strain and limiting mass transport necessary for grain growth. The 22 mol % Al-modified TiO2 with Al on the surface had average crystallite diameter of 6 nm, surface area of 184 m(2)g(-1), pore volume of 0.34 cm(3)g(-1), and pore diameter of 6.4 nm compared with the 22 mol % Al-modified TiO2 with Al incorporated in vacancies and on the surface which had average crystallite diameter of 2 3 nm, surface area of 471 m(2) g(-1), pore volume of 0.44 cm(3) g(-1), and pore diameter of 4.4 nm. This work demonstrates the importance of structure analysis of doped nanomaterials in the development of stabilized catalysts and catalyst supports.

AB We present a multiscale model for anisotropic, elasto-plastic, rate- and temperature-sensitive deformation of polycrystalline aggregates to large plastic strains. The model accounts for a dislocation-based hardening law for multiple slip modes and links a single-crystal to a polycrystalline response using a crystal plasticity finite element based homogenization. It is capable of predicting local stress and strain fields based on evolving microstructure including the explicit evolution of dislocation density and crystallographic grain reorientation. We apply the model to simulate monotonic mechanical response of a hexagonal close-packed metal, zirconium (Zr), and a body-centered cubic metal, niobium (Nb), and study the texture evolution and deformation mechanisms in a two-phase Zr/Nb layered composite under severe plastic deformation. The model predicts well the texture in both co-deforming phases to very large plastic strains. In addition, it offers insights into the active slip systems underlying texture evolution, indicating that the observed textures develop by a combination of prismatic, pyramidal, and anomalous basal slip in Zr and primarily {110}< 111 > slip and secondly {112}< 111 > slip in Nb.

AB The chemical equilibrium distribution of point defects modeled as non-overlapping, spherical inclusions with purely positive dilatational eigenstrain in an isotropically elastic solid is derived. The compressive self-stress inside existing inclusions must be excluded from the stress dependence of the equilibrium concentration of the point defects, because it does no work when a new inclusion is introduced. On the other hand, a tensile image stress field must be included to satisfy the boundary conditions in a finite solid. Through the image stress, existing inclusions promote the introduction of additional inclusions. This is contrary to the prevailing approach in the literature in which the equilibrium point defect concentration depends on a homogenized stress field that includes the compressive selfstress. The shear stress field generated by the equilibrium distribution of such inclusions is proved to be proportional to the pre-existing stress field in the solid, provided that the magnitude of the latter is small, so that a solid containing an equilibrium concentration of point defects can be described by a set of effective elastic constants in the small-stress limit.

AB In this work, the authors present analytic models for atomic layer deposition (ALD) in three common experimental configurations: cross-flow, particle coating, and spatial ALD. These models, based on the plug-flow and well-mixed approximations, allow us to determine the minimum dose times and materials utilization for all three configurations. A comparison between the three models shows that throughput and precursor utilization can each be expressed by universal equations, in which the particularity of the experimental system is contained in a single parameter related to the residence time of the precursor in the reactor. For the case of cross-flow reactors, the authors show how simple analytic expressions for the reactor saturation profiles agree well with experimental results. Consequently, the analytic model can be used to extract information about the ALD surface chemistry (e. g., the reaction probability) by comparing the analytic and experimental saturation profiles, providing a useful tool for characterizing new and existing ALD processes.

FOLLOW-UP; SCREENING MAMMOGRAPHY; ESTROGEN-RECEPTOR
AB A vast range of disorders-from indolent to fast-growing lesions-are labelled as cancer. Therefore, we believe that several changes should be made to the approach to cancer screening and care, such as use of new terminology for indolent and precancerous disorders. We propose the term indolent lesion of epithelial origin, or IDLE, for those lesions (currently labelled as cancers) and their precursors that are unlikely to cause harm if they are left untreated. Furthermore, precursors of cancer or high-risk disorders should not have the term cancer in them. The rationale for this change in approach is that indolent lesions with low malignant potential are common, and screening brings indolent lesions and their precursors to clinical attention, which leads to overdiagnosis and, if unrecognised, possible overtreatment. To minimise that potential, new strategies should be adopted to better define and manage IDLEs. Screening guidelines should be revised to lower the chance of detection of minimal-risk IDLEs and inconsequential cancers with the same energy traditionally used to increase the sensitivity of screening tests. Changing the terminology for some of the lesions currently referred to as cancer will allow physicians to shift medicolegal notions and perceived risk to reflect the evolving understanding of biology, be more judicious about when a biopsy should be done, and organise studies and registries that off er observation or less invasive approaches for indolent disease. Emphasis on avoidance of harm while assuring benefit will improve screening and treatment of patients and will be equally effective in the prevention of death from cancer.

AB X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) sources enable the use of crystallography to solve three-dimensional macromolecular structures under native conditions and without radiation damage. Results to date, however, have been limited by the challenge of deriving accurate Bragg intensities from a heterogeneous population of microcrystals, while at the same time modeling the X-ray spectrum and detector geometry. Here we present a computational approach designed to extract meaningful high-resolution signals from fewer diffraction measurements.

AB The accurate and comprehensive identification of functional regulatory sequences in mammalian genomes remains a major challenge. Here we describe site-specific integration fluorescence-activated cell sorting followed by sequencing (SIF-seq), an unbiased, medium-throughput functional assay for the discovery of distant-acting enhancers. Targeted single-copy genomic integration into pluripotent cells, reporter assays and flow cytometry are coupled with high-throughput DNA sequencing to enable parallel screening of large numbers of DNA sequences. By functionally interrogating >500 kilobases (kb) of mouse and human sequence in mouse embryonic stem cells for enhancer activity we identified enhancers at pluripotency Loci including NANOG. In in vitro differentiated cardiomyocytes and neural progenitor cells, we identified cardiac enhancers and neuronal enhancers, respectively. SIF-seq is a powerful and flexible method for de novo functional identification of mammalian enhancers in a potentially wide variety of cell

AB Ion tracks were created in olivine from San Carlos, Arizona (95% Mg2SiO4), apatite (Ca-5(PO4)(3)(F,Cl,O)) from Durango, Mexico, and synthetic silicates with the apatite structure: Nd8Sr2(SiO4)(6)O-2 and Nd5Ca2(SiO4)(6)O-2 using 1.6 and 2.2 GeV Au ions. The morphology and annealing behaviour of the tracks were investigated by means of synchrotron based small angle X-ray scattering in combination with ex situ annealing. Tracks in olivine annealed above 400 degrees C undergo a significant change in track radius due to recrystallisation of the damage tracks. At temperatures higher than 620 degrees C, the scattering images indicate fragmentation of the track cylinders into smaller subsections. Ion tracks were annealed at elevated temperatures up to 400 degrees C in the Durango and Ca-britholite, and up to 560 degrees C in Sr-britholite. While there was a significant change in the track radii in the Durango apatite, tracks in the two synthetic samples remained almost unchanged. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

ID MECHANISM
AB Studies of defects formation in crystals are of obvious importance in electronics, nuclear engineering and other disciplines where materials are exposed to different forms of irradiation. Rutherford Backscattering/Channeling (RBS/C) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are the most convenient tool for this purpose, as they allow one to determine several features of lattice defects: their type, concentration and damage accumulation kinetic. On the other hand various irradiation conditions can be efficiently modeled by ion irradiation method without leading to the radioactivity of the sample. Combination of ion irradiation with channeling experiment and MC simulations appears thus as a most versatile method in studies of radiation damage in materials.
The paper presents the results on such a study performed on SrTiO3 (STO) single crystals irradiated with 320 key Ar ions. The samples were analyzed also by using HRTEM as a complementary method which enables the measurement of geometrical parameters of crystal lattice deformation in the vicinity of dislocations. Once the parameters and their variations within the distance of several lattice constants from the dislocation core are known, they may be used in MC simulations for the quantitative determination of dislocation depth distribution profiles. The final outcome of the deconvolution procedure are cross-sections values calculated for two types of defects observed (RDA and dislocations). (c) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB In this work, we present the effect of extremely high fluence ion implantation on microstructure of single crystalline YSZ samples with three major low index orientations: (1 0 0), (1 I 0) and (1 1 1). The samples were implanted at room temperature with 150 key Ar+ ions to a fluence of 1 x 10(17) Ar/cm-(2) corresponding to the peak damage level of similar to 120 dpa and peak Ar atom concentration of similar to 12 at.%. Rutherford backscattering/channeling spectrometry (RBS/C), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and associated analytical tools were used to determine the orientation dependent damage, surface morphology, and microstructure modifications of the implanted layers. Ar+ ion implantation resulted in formation of severely damaged layers, which however remained crystalline. The damage peak maximum, determined by RBS/C, indicated that the fourth damage accumulation stage, previously predicted for Ar-implanted YSZ, was achieved. The (1 1 0) oriented YSZ demonstrated slightly better radiation tolerance, as observed by RBS/C, compared to the other low index orientations. Microstructural studies revealed large cavities aligned parallel to the specimen surface, which emerged in a form of circular blisters on the surface. The origin of the cavities was related to the segregation of Ar atoms into pressurized gas filled bubbles. The crystallographic anisotropy of microstructural parameters (thickness of the damages layer, surface blister density and diameter, cavity dimensions) remains uncertain. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

AB Swift heavy ions (SHI), of specific kinetic energies in the excess of 1 MeV/u, can create cylindrical regions of structural transformation in SiO2 targets, also known as SHI tracks. Recent measurements of the track cross-sections in a-quartz show significant and consistent discrepancies across different experimental techniques used. In particular, the track radii obtained from channelling experiments based on the Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS-c) method increase monotonically with the electronic stopping power, whereas the track radii obtained from the Small Angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) saturate past a certain stopping power threshold. We perform a systematic study of the structure of the alpha-quartz tracks obtained from the molecular dynamics (MD) simulations incorporating a time-dependent energy deposition based on the inelastic thermal spike model, which allows us to discuss the possible origins of these experimental discrepancies.

AB A radiation stability study was performed on glass ceramic and crystalline ceramic waste forms. These materials are candidate host materials for immobilizing alkali/alkaline earth (Cs/Sr-CS) + lanthanide (LN) + transition metal (TM) fission product waste streams from nuclear fuel reprocessing. In this study, glass ceramics were fabricated using a borosilicate glass as a matrix in which to incorporate CS/LN/TM combined waste streams. The major phases in these multiphase materials are powellite, oxyaptite, pollucite, celsian, and durable residual glass phases. Al2O3 and TiO2 were combined with these waste components to produce multiphase crystalline ceramics containing hollandite-type phases, perovskites, pyrochlores and other minor metal titanate phases.
For the radiation stability test, selected glass ceramic and crystalline ceramic samples were exposed to different irradiation environments including low fluxes of high-energy (similar to 1-5 MeV) protons and alpha particles generated by an ion accelerator, high fluxes of low-energy (hundreds of key) krypton particles generated by an ion implanter, and in-situ electron irradiations in a transmission electron microscope. These irradiation experiments were performed to simulate self-radiation effects in a waste form. Ion irradiation-induced microstructural modifications were examined using X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Our preliminary results reveal different radiation tolerance in different crystalline phases under various radiation damage environments. However, their stability may be rate dependent which may limit the waste loading that can be achieved. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The incorporation of radioactive elements in fission products (FPs) into complex oxides, where the elements are constrained in the structure and enhanced leaching and radioactive stability can be obtained, is an active research area in the nuclear fuel cycle. Perovskite structured Sr(2)Fe(1.)5Mo(0.5)O(6-delta) (SFM) has the capability of incorporating several FPs (such as Sr and Mo) into the crystalline network simultaneously while maintaining a stabilized structure. The radiation damage effects on the structure changes of this polycrystalline SFM sample is conducted under various ion irradiations including 200 key He ions to a fluence of 5 x 10(20) ions m(-2), 100 keV H to a fluence of 3 x 10(21) ions cm(-2), and 600 keV Kr ions to a fluence of 2.5 x 10(19) ions m(-2) at room temperature. Irradiation-induced structural evolution was examined by using grazing incidence X-ray diffraction and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the irradiated SFM sample decomposed into a layered Sr4FeMoO8-delta based phase and a metallic Fe based phase under light ion (He and H) irradiations. Nano-crystallized secondary phase was observed with particle sizes around 7 nm. These results suggest that irradiation-induced reducing atmospheres may affect the stability of crystalline structure in complex oxides. Experiment results also reveal an amorphization in the heavy ion Kr irradiated sample, while no amorphization is observed in He/H irradiated SFM. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB 3C-SiC single crystals have been initially irradiated in the nuclear energy loss regime with 100 keV Fe ions to fluences ranging from 4 x 10(13) to 4 x 10(14) cm(-2) (i.e. 0.07-0.7 dpa). RBS/C measurements indicate that SiC rapidly becomes amorphous (at similar to 0.4 dpa). Two damaged SiC crystals exhibiting a different defective structure have been subsequently irradiated in the electronic energy loss regime with 870 MeV swift heavy (Pb) ions (SHIs) up to a fluence of 4 x 10(13) cm(-2). Initially fully amorphous SiC layers showed a decrease in size after SHI irradiation with a recrystallization occurring at the amorphous-crystalline interface. On the contrary, partially amorphous crystals for which onset of amorphization just initiated at the damage peak recovered over the entire damage thickness. Variation of amorphous thickness or disorder level has been monitored as a function of Pb ion fluence, which allowed deriving recrystallization kinetics. Data have been fitted with the direct-impact model and recrystallization cross-sections and threshold values for recovery have been determined for both types of initially defective structures. Differences are qualitatively discussed in terms of nature and density of irradiation defects. All experimental trends have been successfully reproduced by molecular dynamics simulations that mimicked thermal spikes induced by SHIs. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI Search for neutrino-induced particle showers with IceCube-40

AB We report on the search for neutrino-induced particle showers, so-called cascades, in the IceCube-40 detector. The data for this search were collected between April 2008 and May 2009 when the first 40 IceCube strings were deployed and operational. Three complementary searches were performed, each optimized for different energy regimes. The analysis with the lowest energy threshold (2 TeV) targeted atmospheric neutrinos. A total of 67 events were found, consistent with the expectation of 41 atmospheric muons and 30 atmospheric neutrino events. The two other analyses targeted a harder, astrophysical neutrino flux. The analysis with an intermediate threshold of 25 TeV leads to the observation of 14 cascadelike events, again consistent with the prediction of 3.0 atmospheric neutrino and 7.7 atmospheric muon events. We hence set an upper limit of E-2 Phi(lim) <= 7.46 x 10(-8) GeV sr(-1) s(-1) cm(-2) (90% C.L.) on the diffuse flux from astrophysical neutrinos of all neutrino flavors, applicable to the energy range 25 TeV to 5 PeV, assuming an E-nu(-2) spectrum and a neutrino flavor ratio of 1: 1: 1 at the Earth. The third analysis utilized a larger and optimized sample of atmospheric muon background simulation, leading to a higher energy threshold of 100 TeV. Three events were found over a background prediction of 0.04 atmospheric muon events and 0.21 events from the flux of conventional and prompt atmospheric neutrinos. Including systematic errors this corresponds to a 2.7 sigma excess with respect to the background-only hypothesis. Our observation of neutrino event candidates above 100 TeV complements IceCube's recently observed evidence for high-energy astrophysical neutrinos.

AB The most stringent bounds on the absolute neutrino mass scale come from cosmological data. These bounds are made possible because massive relic neutrinos affect the expansion history of the universe and lead to a suppression of matter clustering on scales smaller than the associated free streaming length. However, the resulting effect on cosmological perturbations is relative to the primordial power spectrum of density perturbations from inflation, so freedom in the primordial power spectrum affects neutrino mass constraints. Using measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), the galaxy power spectrum and the Hubble constant, we constrain neutrino mass and number of species for a model-independent primordial power spectrum. Describing the primordial power spectrum by a 20-node spline, we find that the neutrino mass upper limit is a factor 3 weaker than when a power law form is imposed, if only CMB data are used. The primordial power spectrum itself is constrained to better than 10% in the wave vector range k approximate to 0.01 - 0.25 Mpc(-1). Galaxy clustering data and a determination of the Hubble constant play a key role in reining in the effects of inflationary freedom on neutrino constraints. The inclusion of both eliminates the inflationary freedom degradation of the neutrino mass bound, giving for the sum of neutrino masses Sigma m(nu) < 0.18 eV (at 95% confidence level, Planck + BOSS + H-0), approximately independent of the assumed primordial power spectrum model. When allowing for a free effective number of species, N-eff, the joint constraints on Sigma m(nu) and N-eff are loosened by a factor 1.7 when the power law form of the primordial power spectrum is abandoned in favor of the spline parametrization.

AB We pin down the origin of a peculiar dispersion relation of domain wall fluctuation, the so-called ripplon, in a superfluid-superfluid interface. A ripplon has a dispersion relation omega proportional to k(3/2) due to the nonlocality of the effective Lagrangian, which is mediated by gapless superfluid phonons in the bulk. We point out the analogy to the longitudinal phonon in the two-dimensional Wigner crystal.

AB A search is reported for a neutral Higgs boson in the decay channel H -> Z gamma, Z -> l(+)l(-) (l = e, mu), using 4.5 fb(-1) of pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV and 20.3 fb(-1) of pp collisions at root s = 8 TeV, recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The observed distribution of the invariant mass of the three final-state particles, m(ll gamma), is consistent with the Standard Model hypothesis in the investigated mass range of 120-150 GeV. For a Higgs boson with a mass of 125.5 GeV, the observed upper limit at the 95% confidence level is 11 times the Standard Model expectation. Upper limits are set on the cross section times branching ratio of a neutral Higgs boson with mass in the range 120-150 GeV between 0.13 and 0.5 pb for root s = 8 TeV at 95% confidence level.

TI Higgs pair production at the LHC with NLO and parton-shower effects

AB We present predictions for the SM-Higgs-pair production channels of relevance at the LHC: gluon-gluon fusion, VBF, and top-pair, W, Z and single-top associated production. All these results are at the NLO accuracy in QCD, and matched to parton showers by means of the MC@NLO method; hence, they are fully differential. With the exception of the gluon-gluon fusion process, for which a special treatment is needed in order to improve upon the infinite-top-mass limit, our predictions are obtained in a fully automatic way within the publicly available MADGRAPH5_AMC@NLO framework. We show that for all channels in general, and for gluon-gluon fusion and top-pair associated production in particular, NLO corrections reduce the theoretical uncertainties, and are needed in order to arrive at reliable predictions for total rates as well as for distributions.

AB The electromagnetic dipole strength in Be-11 between the bound states has been measured using low-energy projectile Coulomb excitation at bombarding energies of 1.73 and 2.09 MeV/nucleon on a Pt-196 target. An electric dipole transition probability B(E1; 1/2(-) -> 1/2(+)) = 0.102(2) e(2) fm(2) was determined using the semi-classical code Gosia, and a value of 0.098(4) e(2) fm(2) was determined using the Extended Continuum Discretized Coupled Channels method with the quantum mechanical code FRESCO. These extracted B(E1) values are consistent with the average value determined by a model-dependent analysis of intermediate energy Coulomb excitation measurements and are approximately 14% lower than that determined by a lifetime measurement. The much-improved precisions of 2% and 4% in the measured B(E1) values between the bound states deduced using Gosia and the Extended Continuum Discretized Coupled Channels method, respectively, compared to the previous accuracy of similar to 10% will help in our understanding of and better improve the realistic inter-nucleon interactions.

TI Spontaneous R-parity breaking, stop LSP decays and the neutrino mass
hierarchy

COLLISIONS; ROOT-S=7 TEV; GENERATION; SEARCH
AB The MSSM with right-handed neutrino supermultiplets, gauged B - L symmetry and a non-vanishing sneutrino expectation value is the minimal theory that spontaneously breaks R-parity and is consistent with the bounds on proton stability and lepton number violation. This minimal B - L MSSM can have a colored/charged LSP, of which a stop LSP is the most amenable to observation at the LHC. We study the R-parity violating decays of a stop LSP into a bottom quark and charged leptons - the dominant modes for a generic "admixture" stop. A numerical analysis of the relative branching ratios of these decay channels is given using a wide scan over the parameter space. The fact that R-parity is violated in this theory by a vacuum expectation value of a sneutrino links these branching ratios directly to the neutrino mass hierarchy. It is shown how a discovery of bottom-charged lepton events at the LHC can potentially determine whether the neutrino masses are in a normal or inverted hierarchy, as well as determining the theta(23) neutrino mixing angle. Finally, present LHC bounds on these leptoquark signatures are used to put lower bounds on the stop mass. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB This article reviews literature on using membranes in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) applications. Membranes enable the separation of one species from another, and membranes allowing the selective permeation of water vapor can be used to condition air in buildings, potentially more efficiently than conventional HVAC equipment. After a brief background on membrane technology, this review focuses on the following processes: vacuum membrane dehumidification; membrane energy recovery ventilation; liquid desiccant dehumidification; liquid desiccant regeneration; evaporative cooling; and humidification. It highlights the design, modeling, and experimental research on these topics, and suggests areas for further research. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE Ironmaking; Emerging technology; Energy-efficiency; CO2
emission-reduction; Research and development
AB Iron and steel manufacturing is among the most energy-intensive industries. Ironmaking accounts for the major share of total energy use in steel production in integrated steel mills that use blast furnaces and basic oxygen furnace. Although studies from around the world have identified a wide range of energy-efficiency technologies applicable to the ironmaking process that have already been commercialized, information is limited and/or scattered regarding alternative emerging or advanced energy-efficiency and low-carbon technologies that are not yet fully commercialized. This paper consolidates available information on 12 alternative emerging ironmaking technologies, with the intent of providing a well-structured database of information on these technologies for engineers, researchers, investors, steel companies, policy makers, and other interested parties. For each technology included, we provide information on energy savings and environmental and other benefits, costs, and commercialization status. All the alternative emerging ironmaking technologies eliminate energy-intensive coke production. COREX (R) Process, FINEX (R) Process, and Coal-Based HYL Process are very promising alternative emerging ironmaking technologies because they are already commercialized, but they have very low adoption rate in the steel industry worldwide.

AB A new neutron counter for research experiments on nuclear fission has been developed. This instrument is designed for the detection of prompt fission neutrons within relatively high levels of gamma and neutron background. It is composed of a set of He-3 proportional counters arranged within a block of polyethylene which serves as moderator. The detection properties have been studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations and experiments with radioactive sources. These properties are confirmed by an experiment on neutron induced fission of U-238 at the WNR facility of the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center during which the mean prompt fission neutron multiplicity, or (nu) over bar has been measured from 1 to 20 MeV of incident neutron energy.

AB A highly selective and robust catalyst based on Pt nanoclusters (NCs) confined inside the cavities of an amino-functionalized Zr-terephthalate metal organic framework (MOF), UO-66-NH2 was developed. The Pt NCs are monodisperse and confined in the cavities of UiO-66-NH2 even at 10.7 wt % Pt loading. This confinement was further confirmed by comparing the catalytic performance of Pt NCs confined inside and supported on the external surface of the MOF in the hydrogenation of ethylene, 1-hexene, and 1,3-cyclooctadiene. The benefit of confining Pt NCs inside UiO-66NH(2) was also demonstrated by evaluating their performance in the chemoselective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde. We found that both high selectivity to cinnamyl alcohol and high conversion of cinnamaldehyde can be achieved using the MOF-confined Pt nanocluster catalyst, while we could not achieve high cinnamyl alcohol selectivity on Pt NCs supported on the external surface of the MOF. The catalyst can be recycled ten times without any loss in its activity and selectivity. To confirm the stability of the recycled catalysts, we conducted kinetic studies for the first 20 h of reaction during four recycle runs on the catalyst. Both the conversion and selectivity are almost overlapping for the four runs, which indicates the catalyst is very stable under the employed reaction conditions.

AB Ion exchange resin supported Au alloyed Pd single atoms have been explored to serve as an effective and robust catalyst for the Ullmann reaction of aryl halides under mild conditions in aqueous media, in particular for the activation of less reactive aryl chlorides. The catalysts were prepared with an ion exchange-NaBH4 reduction method and submitted to extensive characterizations by HRTEM, XRD, EXAFS, and DRIFTS techniques. XRD patterns demonstrated the formation of Au-Pd alloys. EXAFS and DRIFTS characterization results showed that with an increase of Au/Pd molar ratios, the continuous Pd ensembles on the surface were gradually separated and eventually isolated by Au atoms, confirming that the Au alloyed Pd single-atom catalyst was formed. The catalysts exhibited excellent performance for the Ullmann reaction of aryl chlorides, and the turnover number (TON) increased exponentially with a decrease of the amount of Pd in the catalysts. On the basis of these characterization and catalytic results, the Au alloyed Pd single-atom was proposed as the active site for the reaction. The catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic performance for a broad scope of substrates and could be reused at least 8 times with no change in yield. This Au alloyed Pd single-atom catalyst bridges the gap between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis in organic transformations and may open a new vision to develop other efficient single-atom catalysts for green synthesis of fine chemicals.

AB We present a model system, based on spherical nonporous supports, to facilitate the characterization of supported metal catalysts stabilized by atomic layer deposition (ALD) against sintering and leaching under liquid-phase conditions. Calcination at high temperatures (973 K) produces pores in the ALD overcoat, and we image these pores using scanning transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy (STEM/EELS). We determine the size of these pores to be similar to 1 nm using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Finally, we demonstrate the use of ALD to synthesize novel bifunctional catalysts by the addition of an acidic oxide layer to the stabilizing overcoat.

AB Biological nitrogen fixation is the primary supply of N to most ecosystems, yet there is considerable uncertainty about how N-fixing bacteria will respond to global change factors such as increasing atmospheric CO2 and N deposition. Using the nifH gene as a molecular marker, we studied how the community structure of N-fixing soil bacteria from temperate pine, aspen, and sweet gum stands and a brackish tidal marsh responded to multiyear elevated CO2 conditions. We also examined how N availability, specifically, N fertilization, interacted with elevated CO2 to affect these communities in the temperate pine forest. Based on data from Sanger sequencing and quantitative PCR, the soil nifH composition in the three forest systems was dominated by species in the Geobacteraceae and, to a lesser extent, Alphaproteobacteria. The N-fixing-bacterial-community structure was subtly altered after 10 or more years of elevated atmospheric CO2, and the observed shifts differed in each biome. In the pine forest, N fertilization had a stronger effect on nifH community structure than elevated CO2 and suppressed the diversity and abundance of N-fixing bacteria under elevated atmospheric CO2 conditions. These results indicate that N-fixing bacteria have complex, interacting responses that will be important for understanding ecosystem productivity in a changing climate.

AB Three commercial cellulase preparations, Novozymes Cellic(A (R)) Ctec2, Dupont Accellerase(A (R)) 1500, and DSM Cytolase CL, were evaluated for their hydrolytic activity using a set of reference biomass substrates with controlled substrate characteristics. It was found that lignin remains a significant recalcitrance factor to all the preparations, although different enzyme preparations respond to the inhibitory effect of lignin differently. Also, different types of biomass lignin can inhibit cellulase enzymes in different manners. Enhancing enzyme activity toward biomass fiber swelling is an area significantly contributing to potential improvement in cellulase performance. While the degree of polymerization of cellulose in the reference substrates did not present a major recalcitrance factor to Novozymes Cellic(A (R)) Ctec2, cellulose crystallite has been shown to have a significant lower reactivity toward all enzyme mixtures. The presence of polysaccharide monooxygenases (PMOs) in Novozymes Ctec2 appears to enhance enzyme activity toward decrystallization of cellulose. This study demonstrated that reference substrates with controlled chemical and physical characteristics of structural features can be applied as an effective and practical strategy to identify cellulosic enzyme activities toward specific biomass recalcitrance factor(s) and provide specific targets for enzyme improvement.

AB Wastewater treatment plants use a variety of bioreactor types and configurations to remove organic matter and nutrients. Little is known regarding the effects of different configurations and within-plant immigration on microbial community dynamics. Previously, we found that the structure of ammonia-oxidizing bacterial (AOB) communities in a full-scale dispersed growth activated sludge bioreactor correlated strongly with levels of NO2 (-) entering the reactor from an upstream trickling filter. Here, to further examine this puzzling association, we profile within-plant microbial biogeography (spatial variation) and test the hypothesis that substantial microbial immigration occurs along a transect (raw influent, trickling filter biofilm, trickling filter effluent, and activated sludge) at the same full-scale wastewater treatment plant. AOB amoA gene abundance increased > 30-fold between influent and trickling filter effluent concomitant with NO2 (-) production, indicating unexpected growth and activity of AOB within the trickling filter. Nitrosomonas europaea was the dominant AOB phylotype in trickling filter biofilm and effluent, while a distinct "Nitrosomonas-like" lineage dominated in activated sludge. Prior time series indicated that this "Nitrosomonas-like" lineage was dominant when NO2 (-) levels in the trickling filter effluent (i.e., activated sludge influent) were low, while N. europaea became dominant in the activated sludge when NO2 (-) levels were high. This is consistent with the hypothesis that NO2 (-) production may cooccur with biofilm sloughing, releasing N. europaea from the trickling filter into the activated sludge bioreactor. Phylogenetic microarray (PhyloChip) analyses revealed significant spatial variation in taxonomic diversity, including a large excess of methanogens in the trickling filter relative to activated sludge and attenuation of Enterobacteriaceae across the transect, and demonstrated transport of a highly diverse microbial community via the trickling filter effluent to the activated sludge bioreactor. Our results provide compelling evidence that substantial immigration between coupled process units occurs and may exert significant influence over microbial community dynamics within staged bioreactors.

AB The attainment of sexual maturity has been shown to affect measures of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) and adult sex ratios in several groups of vertebrates. Using data for turtles, we tested the model that sex ratios are expected to be male-biased when females are larger than males and female-biased when males are larger than females because of the relationship of each with the attainment of maturity. Our model is based on the premise that the earlier-maturing sex remains smaller, on average throughout life, and predominates numerically unless the sexes are strongly affected by differential mortality, differential emigration, and immigration, or biased primary sex ratios. Based on data for 24 species in seven families, SSD and sex ratios were significantly negatively correlated for most analyses, even after the effect of phylogenetic bias was removed. The analyses provide support for the model that SSD and adult sex ratios are correlated in turtles as a result of simultaneous correlation of each with sexual differences in attainment of maturity (bimaturism). Environmental sex determination provides a possible mechanism for the phenomenon in turtles and some other organisms. (c) 2014 The Authors.

AB The rotary enthalpy wheel design used in many energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) is designed to transfer heat and moisture between supply and exhaust air streams. The wheel, however, can also transfer formaldehyde and other indoor contaminants from the exhaust stream to the supply stream through air leakage, entrainment in the porous wheel, and adsorption/desorption to the filter medium. This contaminant transfer reduces the benefit of the mechanical ventilation provided by the device. Field and chamber experiments were used to quantify the formaldehyde transfer efficacy (the fraction of formaldehyde transferred from the exhaust stream to the supply stream) in a common ERV model under varied conditions. In field experiments, the transfer efficacy was approximately 29%. Chamber tests showed formaldehyde transfer efficacy between 10 and 29%. The bulk of the transfer was due to air leakage and entrainment within the wheel, with up to 30% of the transfer attributed adsorption/ desorption from the filter medium. The transfer efficacy decreased with increasing air exchange rate and supply air temperature. The transfer efficacy increased as the supply and exhaust streams were unbalanced in flow rate. Overall, the air leakage through the device substantially exceeded the product rating of 10%, with 27-28% air leakage measured in field experiments and 12-19% air leakage in chamber experiments.

AB In seismology, waveform cross correlation has been used for years to produce high-precision hypocenter locations and for sensitive detectors. Because correlated seismograms generally are found only at small hypocenter separation distances, correlation detectors have historically been reserved for spotlight purposes. However, many regions have been found to produce large numbers of correlated seismograms, and there is growing interest in building next-generation pipelines that employ correlation as a core part of their operation. In an effort to better understand the distribution and behavior of correlated seismic events, we have cross correlated a global dataset consisting of over 300 million seismograms. This was done using a conventional distributed cluster, and required 42 days. In anticipation of processing much larger datasets, we have re-architected the system to run as a series of MapReduce jobs on a Hadoop cluster. In doing so we achieved a factor of 19 performance increase on a test dataset. We found that fundamental algorithmic transformations were required to achieve the maximum performance increase. Whereas in the original IO-bound implementation, we went to great lengths to minimize IO, in the Hadoop implementation where IO is cheap, we were able to greatly increase the parallelism of our algorithms by performing a tiered series of very fine-grained (highly parallelizable) transformations on the data. Each of these MapReduce jobs required reading and writing large amounts of data. But, because IO is very fast, and because the fine-grained computations could be handled extremely quickly by the mappers, the net was a large performance gain. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB The accumulation of soil on photovoltaic (PV) modules may introduce a spectral loss due to the color profile of the accumulated material. In order to compare the spectral and total losses experienced by a cell, soil analogs were formulated to contain common mineral pigments (Fe2O3 and gothite) with previously developed "standard grime" mixtures. These mixtures simulated a wide range of desert soil colors and were applied to glass test coupons. The light transmission through the deposited film was evaluated by UV/vis/NIR spectroscopy and by placing the coupon over a test cell in a 1-sun simulator and quantum efficiency test stand. Distinct peaks in the 300-600-nm range were observed by UV/vis/NIR spectroscopy corresponding to the Fe2O3 and gothite. Approximately analogous features were noted in the QE measurement. Overall comparisons were made by integrating the response of a soiled coupon relative to a clean reference. Soils rich in red pigments (Fe2O3) caused a greater integrated response than soils rich in yellow pigment (gothite). The yellow soils caused a greater attenuation in a specific region of the spectrum (300-450 nm), which may have significant implications to specific devices, such as multijunction and CdTe technologies.

AB Ultrabroadband and wide-angle antireflection coatings (ARCs) are essential to realizing efficiency gains for state-of-the-art multijunction photovoltaic devices. In this study, we examine a novel design that integrates a nanostructured antireflection layer with a multilayer ARC. Using optical models, we find that this hybrid approach can reduce reflected AM1.5D power by 10-50 W/m(2) over a wide angular range compared to conventional thin-film ARCs. A detailed balance model correlates this to an improvement in absolute cell efficiency of 1-2%. Three different ARC designs are fabricated on indium gallium phosphide, and reflectance is measured to show the benefit of this hybrid approach.

AB We analyze the implications of luminescent coupling on multijunction cell design and performance, using a recently developed formalism that uses the measured luminescent coupling parameters as inputs to an analytical model of the full current-voltage (J-V) characteristic of the cell. This calculation of the full J-V curve allows the determination of the cell open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, fill factor, and efficiency in the presence of luminescent coupling. We show that luminescent coupling affects critical aspects of the cell design that include the optimal junction thicknesses and bandgaps, and affects the dependence of the cell performance on the spectral content of the light illuminating it.

AB This study presents an integrated methodology that considers renewable distributed generation (RDG) and demand responses (DR) as options for planning distribution systems in a transition towards low-carbon sustainability. It is assumed that demand responsiveness is enabled by real-time pricing (RTP), and the problem has been formulated as a dynamic two-stage model. It co-optimizes the allocation of renewables [including wind and solar photovoltaic (PV)], non-renewable DG units (gas turbines) and smart metering (SM) simultaneously with network reinforcement for minimizing the total economic and carbon-emission costs over planning horizons. The behavior compliance to RTP is described through a nodal-based DR model, in which the fading effect attended during the load recovery is highlighted. Besides, uncertainties associated with renewable energy generation and price-responsiveness of customers are also taken into account and represented by multiple probabilistic scenarios. The proposed methodology is implemented by employing an efficient hybrid algorithm and applied to a typical distribution test system. The results demonstrate the effectiveness in improving the efficiency of RDG operations and mitigating CO footprint of distribution systems, when compared with the conventional planning paradigms.

AB Integration of renewable energy sources and demand response poses new challenges to system operators as they increase the uncertainty of the power supply and demand. Recently, robust optimization techniques are applied to the unit commitment problem with uncertainty as an alternative to the stochastic programming approaches. However, it remains challenging to solve the robust unit commitment model with full transmission line constraints. In this paper, we propose novel acceleration techniques for solving two-stage robust unit commitment problem with consideration of full transmission line constraints. We use 1) the cutting-plane algorithm for the master problem, which dynamically includes critical transmission line constraints, and 2) column-generation methods, including the branch-and-price-and-cut algorithm and heuristic approaches, for the subproblems, which add only necessary transmission line dual variables on the fly. Computational results for the modified IEEE 118-bus system show that the combination of the cutting-plane algorithm and the heuristic column-generation approach greatly reduces the total solution time of the two-stage robust unit commitment problem.

AB Conservation voltage reduction (CVR) is widely adopted by utilities for peak demand reduction and energy savings through reducing the voltage level of the electrical distribution system. This paper presents an in-depth review on implementing and assessing CVR. The methodologies to quantify CVR effects are categorized into comparison-based, regression-based, synthesis-based and simulation-based methods. The implementation strategies for voltage reduction are classified into open-loop and closed-loop methods. The impacts of emerging smart-grid technologies on CVR are also discussed. The paper can provide researchers and utility engineers with further insights into the state of the art, technical barriers and future research directions of CVR technologies.

AB Coolant subcooled boiling in the cylinder head regions of heavy-duty vehicle engines is unavoidable at high thermal loads due to high metal temperatures. However, theoretical and experimental studies of coolant boiling under these specific application conditions are generally lacking. In the present study, subcooled flow boiling heat transfer experiments were performed with water and ethylene glycol/water mixtures at volume ratios of 40/60 and 50/50 in turbulent flow in a specifically designed and fabricated test facility with its experimental test section simulating the heating conditions of the coolant channels in the cylinder head regions of heavy-duty vehicle engines. Boiling curves and subcooled flow boiling heat transfer coefficients for the tested fluids were determined based on the experimental results. Comparisons between the experimental data and the predicted values from existing correlation equations in the engineering literature are presented.

AB The most abundantly produced virion protein in human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the immunodominant phosphoprotein 65 (pp65), which is frequently included in CMV vaccines. Although it is nonessential for in vitro CMV growth, pp65 displays immunomodulatory functions that support a potential role in primary and/or persistent infection. To determine the contribution of pp65 to CMV infection and immunity, we generated a rhesus CMV lacking both pp65 orthologs (RhCMVApp65ab). While deletion ofpp65ab slightly reduced growth in vitro and increased defective particle formation, the protein composition of secreted virions was largely unchanged. Interestingly, pp65 was not required for primary and persistent infection in animals. Immune responses induced by RhCMVApp65ab did not prevent reinfection with rhesus CMV; however, reinfection with RhCMVAUS2-11, which lacks viral-encoded MHC-I antigen presentation inhibitors, was prevented. Unexpectedly, induction of pp65b-specific T cells alone did not protect against RhCMVAUS2-11 challenge, suggesting that T cells targeting multiple CMV antigens are required for protection. However, pp65-specific immunity was crucial for controlling viral dissemination during primary infection, as indicated by the marked increase of RhCMVApp65ab genome copies in CMV-naive, but not CMV-immune, animals. Our data provide rationale for inclusion of pp65 into CMV vaccines but also demonstrate that pp65-induced T cell responses alone do not recapitulate the protective effect of natural infection.

AB Limited oxygen supply to anaerobic wastewater treatment systems had been demonstrated as an effective strategy to improve elemental sulfur (S-0) recovery, coupling sulfate reduction and sulfide oxidation. However, little is known about the impact of dissolved oxygen (DO) on the microbial functional structures in these systems. We used a high throughput tool (GeoChip) to evaluate the microbial community structures in a biological desulfurization reactor under micro-aerobic conditions (DO: 0.02-0.33 mg/L). The results indicated that the microbial community functional compositions and structures were dramatically altered with elevated DO levels. The abundances of dsrA/B genes involved in sulfate reduction processes significantly decreased (p < 0.05, LSD test) at relatively high DO concentration (DO: 0.33 mg/L). The abundances of sox and fccA/B genes involved in sulfur/sulfide oxidation processes significantly increased (p < 0.05, LSD test) in low DO concentration conditions (DO: 0.09 mg/L) and then gradually decreased with continuously elevated DO levels. Their abundances coincided with the change of sulfate removal efficiencies and elemental sulfur (S-0) conversion efficiencies in the bioreactor. In addition, the abundance of carbon degradation genes increased with the raising of DO levels, showing that the heterotrophic microorganisms (e.g., fermentative microorganisms) were thriving under micro-aerobic condition. This study provides new insights into the impacts of micro-aerobic conditions on the microbial functional structure of sulfate-reducing sulfur-producing bioreactors, and revealed the potential linkage between functional microbial communities and reactor performance.

AB We present experimental measurements of a wall-bounded gravity current, motivated by characterizing natural gravity currents such as oceanic overflows. We use particle image velocimetry and planar laser-induced fluorescence to simultaneously measure the velocity and density fields as they evolve downstream of the initial injection from a turbulent channel flow onto a plane inclined at 10 degrees with respect to horizontal. The turbulence level of the input flow is controlled by injecting velocity fluctuations upstream of the output nozzle. The initial Reynolds number based on the Taylor microscale of the flow, R-lambda, is varied between 40 and 120, and the effects of the initial turbulence level are assessed. The bulk Richardson number Ri for the flow is similar to 0.3 whereas the gradient Richardson number Ri(g) varies between 0.04 and 0.25, indicating that shear dominates the stabilizing effect of stratification. Kelvin-Helmholtz instability results in vigorous vertical transport of mass and momentum. We present baseline characterization of standard turbulence quantities and calculate, in several different ways, the fluid entrainment coefficient E, a quantity of considerable interest in mixing parameterization for ocean circulation models. We also determine the properties of mixing as represented by the flux Richardson number Ri(f) as a function of Ri(g) and diapycnal mixing parameter K-rho versus the buoyancy Reynolds number Re-b. We find reasonable agreement with results from natural flows.

AB The degradation behavior of TiN coatings on Inconel 617 and silicon (Si) wafer substrates was compared following Nd:YAG pulsed laser ablation to apply thermomechanical stress. Surface cracks and pores were observed on the TiN coating on the Inconel 617 after five pulses, and melting of the coating was occurred over ten pulses. The TiN coating on the Si wafer also showed surface cracks and pores, but there was no surface melting. As the pulses were increased, the surface roughness of the TiN coating on Inconel 617 increased more than the TiN coating on the Si wafer, and interfacial cracking was the dominant degradation behavior on the Si wafer. The hardness of the TiN coating decreased below 50% of its initial value (2200 HK) after five pulses on the Inconel 617, whereas over 70% of the initial value (2400 HK) was maintained on the Si wafer. The TiN coating on Inconel 617 showed diffusion of substrate atoms to the surface, while Si was not found in the TiN coating on the Si wafer even after 25 pulses. It was determined that the decrease in hardness was influenced by the cracking behavior and the diffusion of atoms from the substrate.

AB Global minima for (MgO)(n) structures were optimized using a tree growth-hybrid genetic algorithm in conjunction with MNDO/MNDO/d semiempirical molecular orbital calculations followed by density functional theory geometry optimizations with the B3LYP functional. New lowest energy isomers were found for a number of (MgO)(n) clusters. The most stable isomers for (MgO)(n) (n > 3) are 3-dimensional. For n < 20, hexagonal tubular (MgO)(n) structures are more favored in energy than the cubic structures. The cubic structures and their variations dominate after n = 20. For the cubic isomers, increasing the size of the cluster in any dimension improves the stability. The effectiveness of increasing the size of the cluster in a specific dimension to improve stability diminishes as the size in that dimension increases. For cubic structures of the same size, the most compact cubic structure is expected to be the more stable cubic structure. The average Mg-O bond distance and coordination number both increase as n increases. The calculated average Mg-O bond distance is 2.055 angstrom at n = 40, slightly smaller than the bulk value of 2.104 angstrom. The average coordination number is predicted to be 4.6 for the lowest energy (MgO)(40) as compared to the bulk value of 6. As n increases, the normalized clustering energy Delta E(n) for the (MgO)(n) increases and the slope of the Delta E(n) vs n curve decreases. The value of Delta E(40) is predicted to be 150 kcal/mol, as compared to the bulk value Delta E(infinity) = 176 kcal/mol. The electronic properties of the clusters are presented and the reactive sites are predicted to be at the corners.

AB Organophosphorus (OP) nerve agents such as (S)-sarin are among the most highly toxic compounds that have been synthesized. Engineering enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of nerve agents ("bioscavengers") is an emerging prophylactic approach to diminish their toxic effects. Although its native function is not known, diisopropyl fluorophosphatase (DFPase) from Loligo vulgaris catalyzes the hydrolysis of OP compounds. Here, we investigate the mechanisms of diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) and (S)-sarin hydrolysis by DFPase with quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical umbrella sampling simulations. We find that the mechanism for hydrolysis of DFP involves nucleophilic attack by Asp229 on phosphorus to form a pentavalent intermediate. P-F bond dissociation then yields a phosphoacyl enzyme intermediate in the rate-limiting step. The simulations suggest that a water molecule, coordinated to the catalytic Ca2+, donates a proton to Asp121 and then attacks the tetrahedral phosphoacyl intermediate to liberate the diisopropylphosphate product. In contrast, the calculated free energy barrier for hydrolysis of (S)-sarin by the same mechanism is highly unfavorable, primarily because of the instability of the pentavalent phosphoenzyme species. Instead, simulations suggest that hydrolysis of (S)-sarin proceeds by a mechanism in which Asp229 could activate an intervening water molecule for nucleophilic attack on the substrate. These findings may lead to improved strategies for engineering DFPase and related six-bladed beta-propeller folds for more efficient degradation of OP compounds.

TI X-ray Absorption Spectra of Dissolved Polysulfides in Lithium-Sulfur
Batteries from First-Principles

DT Article
ID HIGH-CAPACITY; CATHODE; PERFORMANCE; DISCHARGE; DENSITY; CHARGE; CELL;
MECHANISMS
AB The X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) of lithium polysulfides (Li2Sx) of various chain lengths (x) dissolved in a model solvent are obtained from first-principles calculations. The spectra exhibit two main absorption features near the sulfur K-edge, which are unambiguously interpreted as a pre-edge near 2471 eV due to the terminal sulfur atoms at either end of the linear polysulfide dianions and a main-edge near 2473 eV due to the (x - 2) internal atoms in the chain, except in the case of Li2S2, which only has a low-energy feature. We find an almost linear dependence between the ratio of the peaks and chain length, although the linear dependence is modified by the delocalized, molecular nature of the core-excited states that can span up to six neighboring sulfur atoms. Thus, our results indicate that the ratio of the peak area, and not the peak intensities, should be used when attempting to differentiate the polysulfides from XAS.

AB Plasmonic nanocrystals of highly doped metal oxides have seen rapid development in the past decade and represent a class of materials with unique optoelectronic properties. In this Perspective, we discuss doping mechanisms in metal oxides and the accompanying physics of free carrier scattering, both of which have implications in determining the properties of localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) in these nanocrystals. The balance between activation and compensation of dopants limits the free carrier concentration of the most common metal oxides, placing a ceiling on the LSPR frequency. Furthermore, because of ionized impurity scattering of the oscillating plasma by dopant ions, scattering must be treated in a fundamentally different way in semiconductor metal oxide materials when compared with conventional metals. Though these effects are well-understood in bulk metal oxides, further study is needed to understand their manifestation in nanocrystals and corresponding impact on plasmonic properties, and to develop materials that surpass current limitations in free carrier concentration.

AB The L-shaped laterally graded multilayer mirror is a vital part of the ultrahigh-energy and momentum-resolution inelastic X-ray scattering spectrometer at the National Synchrotron Light Source II. This mirror was designed and implemented as a two-dimensional collimating optic for the analyzer system. Its performance was characterized using a secondary large-divergence source at the 30-ID beamline of the Advanced Photon Source, which yielded an integrated reflectivity of 47% and a collimated beam divergence of 78 mu rad with a source size of 10 mu m. Numerical simulations of the mirror performance in tandem with the analyzer crystal optics provided details on the acceptance sample volume in forward scattering and defined the technical requirements on the mirror stability and positioning precision. It was shown that the mirror spatial and angular stability must be in the range <8.4 mu m and <21.4 mu rad, respectively, for reliable operation of the analyzer.

AB Synchrotron radiation from third-generation high-brilliance storage rings is an ideal source for X-ray microbeams. The aim of this paper is to describe a microfocusing scheme that combines both a toroidal mirror and Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) mirrors for upgrading the existing optical system for inelastic X-ray scattering experiments at sector 3 of the Advanced Photon Source. SHADOW ray-tracing simulations without considering slope errors of both the toroidal mirror and KB mirrors show that this combination can provide a beam size of 4.5 mu m (H) x 0.6 mu m (V) (FWHM) at the end of the existing D-station (66 m from the source) with use of full beam transmission of up to 59%, and a beam size of 3.7 mu m (H) x 0.46 mu m (V) (FWHM) at the front-end of the proposed E-station (68 m from the source) with a transmission of up to 52%. A beam size of about 5 mu m (H) x 1 mu m (V) can be obtained, which is close to the ideal case, by using high-quality mirrors (with slope errors of less than 0.5 mu rad r.m.s.). Considering the slope errors of the existing toroidal and KB mirrors (5 and 2.9 mu rad r. m. s., respectively), the beam size grows to about 13.5 mu m (H) x 6.3 mu m (V) at the end of the D-station and to 12.0 mu(H) x 6.0 mu m (V) at the front-end of the proposed E-station. The simulations presented here are compared with the experimental measurements that are significantly larger than the theoretical values even when slope error is included in the simulations. This is because of the experimental set-up that could not yet be optimized.

AB A new small-angle scattering technique in reflection geometry is described which enables a topological study of rough surfaces. This is achieved by using long-wavelength soft X-rays which are scattered at wide angles but in the low-Q range normally associated with small-angle scattering. The use of nanometre-wavelength radiation restricts the penetration to a thin surface layer which follows the topology of the surface, while moving the scattered beam to wider angles preventing shadowing by the surface features. The technique is, however, only applicable to rough surfaces for which there is no specular reflection, so that only the scattered beam was detected by the detector. As an example, a study of the surfaces of rough layers of silicon produced by the deposition of nanoparticles by blade-coating is presented. The surfaces of the blade-coated layers have rough features of the order of several micrometers. Using 2 nm and 13 nm X-rays scattered at angular ranges of 5 degrees <= theta <= 51 degrees and 5 degrees <= theta <= 45 degrees, respectively, a combined range of scattering vector of 0.00842 angstrom(-1) <= Q <= 0.4883 angstrom(-1) was obtained. Comparison with previous transmission SAXS and USAXS studies of the same materials indicates that the new method does probe the surface topology rather than the internal microstructure.

AB A novel approach to locate, identify and refine positions and whole areas of cell structures based on elemental contents measured by X-ray fluorescence microscopy is introduced. It is shown that, by initializing with only a handful of prototypical cell regions, this approach can obtain consistent identification of whole cells, even when cells are overlapping, without training by explicit annotation. It is robust both to different measurements on the same sample and to different initializations. This effort provides a versatile framework to identify targeted cellular structures from datasets too complex for manual analysis, like most X-ray fluorescence microscopy data. Possible future extensions are also discussed.

The performance of the instrument is demonstrated by imaging a cluster of Fe2P magnetic nanorods at 59 nm 3D resolution by phasing a diffraction volume measured at 8 keV photon energy. The result obtained shows progress in three-dimensional imaging of non-crystalline samples in air with hard X-rays.

AB Specific heat measurements were performed on nanometer-sized particles of an S = 1/2 quantum spin system, DMACuCl(3) [DMA = (CH3)(2)NH2]. A tiny peak was observed at a low temperature of approximately 1.5K at zero magnetic field, in addition to a well-defined and commonly observed peak with the bulk system at approximately 0.8 K. Under magnetic fields, it increased in intensity and coincided with the phase boundary responsible for the field-induced magnetic ordering phase above about 6 T. H-1-NMR studies confirmed that such extra peaks also indicated magnetic ordering. The resultant phase diagram is considerably different from that observed previously in the bulk system. Such a difference may be caused by the presence of extra spins found in a nanosized system by ESR measurements.

AB Urbanization has transformed the world's landscapes, resulting in a series of ecological and environmental problems. To assess urbanization impacts and improve sustainability, one of the first questions that we must address is: how much of the world's land has been urbanized? Unfortunately, the estimates of the global urban land reported in the literature vary widely from less than 1-3 % primarily because different definitions of urban land were used. To evade confusion, here we propose a hierarchical framework for representing and communicating the spatial extent of the world's urbanized land at the global, regional, and more local levels. The hierarchical framework consists of three spatially nested definitions: "urban area" that is delineated by administrative boundaries, "built-up area" that is dominated by artificial surfaces, and "impervious surface area" that is devoid of life. These are really three different measures of urbanization. In 2010, the global urban land was close to 3 %, the global built-up area was about 0.65 %, and the global impervious surface area was merely 0.45 %, of the word's total land area (excluding Antarctica and Greenland). We argue that this hierarchy of urban land measures, in particular the ratios between them, can also facilitate better understanding the biophysical and socioeconomic processes and impacts of urbanization.

AB Weak lensing by large-scale structure is an invaluable cosmological tool given that most of the energy density of the concordance cosmology is invisible. Several large ground-based imaging surveys will attempt to measure this effect over the coming decade, but reliable control of the spurious lensing signal introduced by atmospheric turbulence and telescope optics remains a challenging problem. We address this challenge with a demonstration that point spread function (PSF) effects on measured galaxy shapes in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) can be corrected with existing analysis techniques. In this work, we co-add existing SDSS imaging on the equatorial stripe in order to build a data set with the statistical power to measure cosmic shear, while using a rounding kernel method to null out the effects of the anisotropic PSF. We build a galaxy catalogue from the combined imaging, characterize its photometric properties and show that the spurious shear remaining in this catalogue after the PSF correction is negligible compared to the expected cosmic shear signal. We identify a new source of systematic error in the shear-shear autocorrelations arising from selection biases related to masking. Finally, we discuss the circumstances in which this method is expected to be useful for upcoming ground-based surveys that have lensing as one of the science goals, and identify the systematic errors that can reduce its efficacy.

AB Statistical weak lensing by large-scale structure - cosmic shear - is a promising cosmological tool, which has motivated the design of several large upcoming surveys. Here, we present a measurement of cosmic shear using co-added Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging in 168 square degrees of the equatorial region, with r < 23.5 and i < 22.5, a source number density of 2.2 per arcmin(2) and mean redshift of z(med) = 0.52. These co-adds were generated using a new method described in the companion Paper I that was intended to minimize systematic errors in the lensing measurement due to coherent point spread function anisotropies that are otherwise prevalent in the SDSS imaging data. We present measurements of cosmic shear out to angular separations of 2 degrees, along with systematics tests that (combined with those from Paper I on the catalogue generation) demonstrate that our results are dominated by statistical rather than systematic errors. Assuming a cosmological model corresponding to Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe 7(WMAP7) and allowing only the amplitude of matter fluctuations sigma(8) to vary, we find a best-fitting value of sigma(8)=0.636(-0.154)(+0.109) (1 sigma); without systematic errors this would be sigma(8)=0.636(-0.137)(+0.099) (1 sigma). Assuming a flat Lambda cold dark matter model, the combined constraints with WMAP7 are sigma(8)=0.784(-0.026)(+0.028)(1 sigma)(-0.054)(+0.055)(2 sigma) and Omega(m)h(2)=0.1303(-0.0048)(+0.0047)(1 sigma)(-0.009)(+0.009)(2 sigma); the 2 sigma error ranges are, respectively, 14 and 17 per cent smaller than WMAP7 alone.

AB We present a sample of normal Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the Nearby Supernova Factory data set with spectrophotometry at sufficiently late phases to estimate the ejected mass using the bolometric light curve. We measure Ni-56 masses from the peak bolometric luminosity, then compare the luminosity in the Co-56-decay tail to the expected rate of radioactive energy release from ejecta of a given mass. We infer the ejected mass in a Bayesian context using a semi-analytic model of the ejecta, incorporating constraints from contemporary numerical models as priors on the density structure and distribution of Ni-56 throughout the ejecta. We find a strong correlation between ejected mass and light-curve decline rate, and consequently Ni-56 mass, with ejected masses in our data ranging from 0.9 to 1.4 M-circle dot. Most fast-declining (salt2 x(1) < -1) normal SNe Ia have significantly sub-Chandrasekhar ejected masses in our fiducial analysis.

AB We use zoom-in techniques to re-simulate three high-redshift (z >= 5.5) haloes which host 10(9) M-circle dot black holes from the similar to Gpc volume, MassiveBlack cosmological hydrodynamic simulation. We examine a number of factors potentially affecting supermassive black hole growth at high redshift in cosmological simulations. We find insignificant differences in the black hole accretion history by (i) varying the region over which feedback energy is deposited directly, (ii) changing mass resolution by factors of up to 64, (iii) changing the black hole seed mass by a factor of 100. Switching from the density-entropy formulation to the pressure-entropy formulation of smoothed particle hydrodynamics slightly increases the accretion rate. In general numerical details/model parameters appear to have small effects on the main fuelling mechanism for black holes at these high redshifts. The insensitivity to simulation technique seems to be a hallmark of the cold flow feeding picture of these high-z supermassive black holes. We show that the gas that participates in critical accretion phases in these massive objects at z > 6-7 is in all cases colder, denser and forms more coherent streams than the average gas in the halo. This is also mostly the case when the black hole accretion is feedback regulated (z < 6), however, the distinction is less prominent. For our resimulated haloes, cold flows appear to be a viable mechanism for forming the most massive black holes in the early universe, occurring naturally in Lambda cold dark matter models of structure formation, without requiring fine-tuning of numerical parameters.

AB Cuprates possess a large pseudogap that spans much of their phase diagram(1,2). The origin of this pseudogap is as debated as the mechanism for high-temperature superconductivity. In one class of theories, the pseudogap arises from some instability not related to pairing, typically charge, spin or orbital current ordering. Evidence of this has come from a variety of measurements indicating symmetry breaking(3-6). On the other side are theories where the pseudogap is associated with pairing. This ranges from preformed pairs(7) to resonating valence bond theories where spin singlets become charge coherent(8). Here, we study pairing in the cuprates by constructing the pair vertex using spectral functions derived from angle-resolved photoemission data. Assuming that the pseudogap is not due to pairing, we find that the superconducting instability is strongly suppressed, in stark contrast to what is actually observed. We trace this suppression to the destruction of the BCS logarithmic singularity from a combination of the pseudogap and lifetime broadening. Our findings strongly support those theories of the cuprates where the pseudogap is instead due to pairing.

TI Hidden spin polarization in inversion-symmetric bulk crystals
SO NATURE PHYSICS

AB Spin-orbit coupling can induce spin polarization in nonmagnetic 3D crystals when the inversion symmetry is broken, as manifested by the bulk Rashba and Dresselhaus effects. We establish that these spin-polarization effects originate fundamentally from specific atomic site asymmetries, rather than, as generally accepted, from the asymmetry of the crystal space group. This understanding leads to the recognition that a previously overlooked hidden form of spin polarization should exist in centrosymmetric crystals. Although all energy bands must be doubly degenerate in centrosymmetric materials, we find that the two components of such doubly degenerate bands could have opposite polarizations, each spatially localized on one of the two separate sectors forming the inversion partners. We demonstrate such hidden spin polarizations in particular centrosymmetric crystals by first-principles calculations. This new understanding could considerably broaden the range of currently useful spintronic materials and enable the control of spin polarization by means of operations on the atomic scale.

AB We demonstrate a lossless switching between vortex and collinear magnetic states in circular FePd disks arranged in a square lattice. Above a bifurcation temperature (T-e)e we show that thermal fluctuations are enough to facilitate flipping between the two distinctly different magnetic states. We find that the temperature dependence of the vortex annihilation and nucleation fields can be described by a simple power law relating them to the saturation magnetization.

AB Separation and quantification of recombination losses in thin-film Cu(In1-x Ga-x)Se-2 solar cells is paramount to understanding the current state-of-the-art and future improvements, but an effective characterization technique has been lacking. We use the recently developed temperature-illumination-dependent open-circuit voltage method to extract individual recombination rates at the buffer/absorber interface, in the space-charge region, and in the quasi-neutral region, as well as the carrier lifetime and surface recombination velocity for devices with low (x=30%) and high (x=84%) Ga absorbers. In the low-Ga absorber, recombination in the quasi-neutral region dominates. In the high-Ga absorber, interface recombination dominates. The open-circuit voltage deficit of the high-Ga device originates from an inadequacy of band bending in the absorber and a lack of strong inversion at the buffer/absorber interface. As two promising mitigating strategies for the open-circuit voltage deficit problem at high-Ga levels, we highlight a homojunction in the absorber or alternative transparent conducting oxides with low work function.(c) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

ID INTEGRATING SPHERE; SAMPLES; DESIGN; ANGLE
AB Tubular daylighting systems are designed to guide light to the building's core using a highly reflective pipe. The intensity of the transmitted light is essential for the performance of the system. For the qualitative perception of the provided illumination, the color of the delivered light is also an important aspect. For highly reflective mirror light pipes, spectral variations are generally assumed not to affect the color of the transmitted light. Here, spectrophotometric measurements and ray tracing simulations of mirror light pipes are used to verify this commonly made assumption. The characterization methods employ spectral evaluations for both direct and diffuse incident light. The color properties are evaluated for mirror light pipes with a length to diameter aspect ratio of up to 16, using the CIE chromaticity diagram and CIELAB coordinates. For the xy chromaticity diagram, a larger color shift was noted for different illuminants than as a result of the optical properties of the reflective material. Using the CIELAB coordinates, a small color shift was noted for light incident at low solar altitudes. Overall, highly reflective films with spectral variations of a few percent do not markedly affect the color of the transmitted light. (c) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The recent discovery that gas bubbles formed in the melt state are a major current-limiting mechanism in Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox (Bi2212) round wires has prompted explicit examination of the bubble density in split melt processed samples which, under optimized 1 bar processing conditions, can exhibit significant (30-50%) enhancement of critical current density, J(c). By examining quenched and furnace-cooled samples from different points in the split melt processing (SMP), we found that the bubble size correlates well to the J(c). Compared with standard processed samples, the bubble size is smaller in SMP samples which are cooled directly to room temperature by an intermediate cooling from the first melt before being reheated to the second melt. Bubble size and density observations suggest that J(c) can only be increased when bubble growth in the second melt is prevented by very tight control of the reheat temperature. Smaller bubble size is favorable for J(c) because filament connectivity is determined by the effectiveness of bubble bridging by Bi2212 grain growth on cooling from the second melt. Because SMP appears to allow higher J(c) by shrinking bubble size rather than by diminishing the bubble volume fraction, we conclude that SMP is unlikely to offer benefits to newer processes like over-pressure processing which raise J(c) much more significantly by full Bi2212 densification and bubble elimination.

AB Extensive molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to monitor the development of icosahedral order in Cu64Zr34 liquid and metallic glass (MG). This study illustrates that at this Cu-rich Cu-Zr alloy composition, Cu-centered full icosahedra constitute the dominant and characteristic short-range-ordered coordination motif. The results for this model liquid/glass address five questions regarding the ordering of Cu-centered coordination polyhedral towards full icosahedra, including: (i) its evolution and extent during prolonged structural relaxation; (ii) the resulting reduction in potential energy and slowing-down of dynamics; (iii) the accompanying preference of a particular type of Zr-centered Kasper coordination polyhedra; (iv) the evolution and conversion of polyhedral connection schemes in the medium range; and (v) the formation and percolation of networks formed by interpenetrating connection of icosahedra to constitute a stiff backbone over extended range. Five related issues are also clarified, to: (i) differentiate full-icosahedra-based ordering from the generally favorable fivefold bonds; (ii) compare the Cu-based perspective with a Zr-centric view; (iii) systematically list the rationales behind focusing on icosahedral order for explaining the Cu64Zr34 MG/liquid properties; (iv) discuss other non-icosahedral ordering varieties; and (v) comment on the most liquid-like local environments. Taken together, the ten issues addressed set the stage for understanding structure property relations in a category of amorphous alloys that can be characterized based on full-icosahedral ordering.

AB Although cerebellar alterations have been consistently noted in the addiction literature, the pathophysiology of this link remains unclear. The cerebellum is commonly classified as a motor structure, but human functional neuroimaging along with clinical observations in cerebellar stroke patients and anatomical tract tracing in non-human primates suggests its involvement in cognitive and affective processing. A comprehensive literature search on the role of the cerebellum in addiction was performed. This review article (1) considers the potential role of the cerebellum in addiction; (2) summarizes the cerebellar structural alterations linked to addiction; (3) presents the functional neuroimaging evidence linking the cerebellum with addiction; and (4) proposes a model for addiction that underscores the role of the cerebellum. The data implicate the cerebellum as an intermediary between motor and reward, motivation and cognitive control systems, as all are relevant etiologic factors in addiction. Furthermore, consideration of these findings could contribute to deeper and more sophisticated insights into normal reward and motivational function. The goal of this review is to spread awareness of cerebellar involvement in addictive processes, and to suggest a preliminary model for its potential role.

SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PREVENTIVE MEDICINE
LA English
DT Article
ID PUBLIC-HEALTH; DISEASE; POLICY
AB Background: Current recommendations target sodium reduction in the food supply and intake; however, information is limited on consumer readiness for these actions.
Purpose: Prevalence and determinants of consumer agreement for government restriction of manufacturers and restaurants putting excess salt in food and support for policies limiting sodium content of quick service restaurant (QSR) foods were examined.
Methods: Data were analyzed from 9,579 adults aged >= 18 years who responded to consumer readiness for sodium reduction questions in the 2010 ConsumerStyles survey. Responses were collapsed into three categories. Consumer agreement was determined and logistic regression was used to estimate ORs. Analyses were conducted in 2012.
Results: The majority of consumers agree that it is a good idea for government to restrict food manufacturers (55.9%) from putting excess salt in foods. About half agreed that it is a good idea for government to restrict restaurants from putting excess salt in foods and 81.5% supported sodium reduction policies in QSRs. Odds of agreementsupport were higher for non-Hispanic blacks compared with non-Hispanic whites, and those with incomes <$40,000 compared with >=$60,000. Those reporting "neutral" or "yes" to wanting to eat a diet low in sodium were more likely to agree/ support government action compared to those answering "no."
Conclusions: Nearly half of consumers agree with government actions to reduce sodium in manufactured and restaurant foods, with even greater support for QSRs. These findings could inform industry and public health partners about consumer preferences to lower the sodium content of the food supply. (C) 2014 American Journal of Preventive Medicine.

AB Accurate compositional analysis in biofuel feedstocks is imperative; the yields of individual components can define the economics of an entire process. In the nascent industry of algal biofuels and bioproducts, analytical methods that have been deemed acceptable for decades are suddenly critical for commercialization. We tackled the question of how the strain and biochemical makeup of algal cells affect chemical measurements. We selected a set of six procedures (two each for lipids, protein, and carbohydrates): three rapid fingerprinting methods and three advanced chromatography-based methods. All methods were used to measure the composition of 100 samples from three strains: Scenedesmus sp., Chlorella sp., and Nannochloropsis sp. The data presented point not only to species-specific discrepancies but also to cell biochemistry-related discrepancies. There are cases where two respective methods agree but the differences are often significant with over-or underestimation of up to 90%, likely due to chemical interferences with the rapid spectrophotometric measurements. We provide background on the chemistry of interfering reactions for the fingerprinting methods and conclude that for accurate compositional analysis of algae and process and mass balance closure, emphasis should be placed on unambiguous characterization using methods where individual components are measured independently.

AB Simultaneous elucidation of the glycan structure and the glycosylation site are needed to reveal the biological function of protein glycosylation. In this study, we employed a recent type of fragmentation termed higher energy collisional dissociation (HCD) to examine fragmentation patterns of intact glycopeptides generated from a mixture of standard glycosylated proteins. The normalized collisional energy (NCE) value for HCD was varied from 30 to 60% to evaluate the optimal conditions for the fragmentation of peptide backbones and glycoconjugates. Our results indicated that HCD with lower NCE values preferentially fragmented the sugar chains attached to the peptides to generate a ladder of neutral loss of monosaccharides, thereby enabling the putative glycan structure characterization. In addition, detection of the oxonium ions enabled unambiguous differentiation of glycopeptides from non-glycopeptides. In contrast, HCD with higher NCE values preferentially fragmented the peptide backbone and, thus, provided information needed for confident peptide identification. We evaluated the HCD approach with alternating NCE parameters for confident characterization of intact N-and O-linked glycopeptides in a single liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis. In addition, we applied a novel data analysis pipeline, so-called GlycoFinder, to form a basis for automated data analysis. Overall, 38 unique intact glycopeptides corresponding to eight glycosylation sites (six N-linked and two O-linked sites) were confidently identified from a standard protein mixture. This approach provided concurrent characterization of both the peptide and the glycan, thereby enabling comprehensive structural characterization of glycoproteins in a single LC-MS/MS analysis.

AB The fixation of inorganic carbon has been documented in all three domains of life and results in the biosynthesis of diverse organic compounds that support heterotrophic organisms. The primary aim of this study was to assess carbon dioxide fixation in high-temperature Fe(III)-oxide mat communities and in pure cultures of a dominant Fe(II)-oxidizing organism (Metallosphaera yellowstonensis strain MK1) originally isolated from these environments. Protein-encoding genes of the complete 3-hydroxypropionate/ 4-hydroxybutyrate (3-HP/4-HB) carbon dioxide fixation pathway were identified in M. yellowstonensis strain MK1. Highly similar M. yellowstonensis genes for this pathway were identified in metagenomes of replicate Fe(III)-oxide mats, as were genes for the reductive tricarboxylic acid cycle from Hydrogenobaculum spp. (Aquificales). Stable-isotope ((CO2)-C-13) labeling demonstrated CO2 fixation by M. yellowstonensis strain MK1 and in ex situ assays containing live Fe(III)-oxide microbial mats. The results showed that strain MK1 fixes CO2 with a fractionation factor of similar to 2.5%. Analysis of the C-13 composition of dissolved inorganic C (DIC), dissolved organic C (DOC), landscape C, and microbial mat C showed that mat C is from both DIC and non-DIC sources. An isotopic mixing model showed that biomass C contains a minimum of 42% C of DIC origin, depending on the fraction of landscape C that is present. The significance of DIC as a major carbon source for Fe(III)-oxide mat communities provides a foundation for examining microbial interactions that are dependent on the activity of autotrophic organisms (i.e., Hydrogenobaculum and Metallosphaera spp.) in simplified natural communities.

AB The release of radioactive iodine (i.e., iodine-129 and iodine-131) from nuclear reprocessing facilities is a potential threat to human health. The fate and transport of iodine are determined primarily by its redox status, but processes that affect iodine oxidation states in the environment are poorly characterized. Given the difficulty in removing electrons from iodide (I-), naturally occurring iodide oxidation processes require strong oxidants, such as Mn oxides or microbial enzymes. In this study, we examine iodide oxidation by a marine bacterium, Roseobacter sp. AzwK- 3b, which promotes Mn(II) oxidation by catalyzing the production of extracellular superoxide (O-2(-)). In the absence of Mn2+, Roseobacter sp. AzwK-3b cultures oxidized similar to 90% of the provided iodide (10 mu M) within 6 days, whereas in the presence of Mn( II), iodide oxidation occurred only after Mn(IV) formation ceased. Iodide oxidation was not observed during incubations in spent medium or with whole cells under anaerobic conditions or following heat treatment (boiling). Furthermore, iodide oxidation was significantly inhibited in the presence of superoxide dismutase and diphenylene iodonium (a general inhibitor of NADH oxidoreductases). In contrast, the addition of exogenous NADH enhanced iodide oxidation. Taken together, the results indicate that iodide oxidation was mediated primarily by extracellular superoxide generated by Roseobacter sp. AzwK-3b and not by the Mn oxides formed by this organism. Considering that extracellular superoxide formation is a widespread phenomenon among marine and terrestrial bacteria, this could represent an important pathway for iodide oxidation in some environments.

AB Relativistic distorted-wave collision strengths have been calculated for the 49,Delta n = 0 optically allowed transitions with n = 2 in the 67 B-like ions with nuclear charge number Z in the range 26 <= Z <= 92. The calculations were made for the four final, or scattered, electron energies E' = 0.20, 0.42, 0.80, and 1.40, where E' is in units of Z(eff)(2) Ry with Z(eff) = Z - 3.33. In the present calculations, an improved "top-up" method, which employs relativistic plane waves, was used to obtain the high partial-wave contribution for each transition, in contrast to the partial-relativistic Coulomb-Bethe approximation used in previous work by Zhang and Sampson [H.L. Zhang and D.H. Sampson, At. Data Nucl. Data Tables 56 (1994) 411. In that earlier work, collision strengths were also provided for B-like ions, but for a more comprehensive data set consisting of all 105 = 0 transitions, six scattered energies and the 85 ions with Z in the range 8 <= Z <= 92. The collision strengths covered in the present work should be more accurate than the corresponding data given by Zhang and Sampson [H.L. Zhang and D.H. Sampson, At. Data Nucl. Data Tables 56 (1994) 41] and are presented here to replace those earlier results. (c) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB There have been increasing efforts to understand the dynamics of organic carbon (OC) associated with measurable fractions of bulk soil. We compared the decomposition of native OC (native C) with that of an added substrate (glucose) on physically separated fractions of a diverse suite of soils. Five soil orders were selected from four contrasting climate zones (Mollisol from temperate, Ultisol and Oxisol from tropics, Andisol from sub-arctic, and Gelisol from arctic region). Soils from the A horizon were fractionated into particulate OC (POC) and mineral-associated OC (MOC) by a size-based method. Fractions were incubated at 20 A degrees C and 50 % water-holding capacity in the dark after the addition of unlabeled d-glucose (0.4 mg C g(-1) fraction) and U-C-14 glucose (296 Bq g(-1) fraction). Respiration of glucose C-14 indicated 64 to 84 % of added glucose C-14 which was respired from POC and 62 to 70 % from MOC within 150 days of incubation, with more than half of the cumulative respiration occurring within 4 days. Native C respiration varied widely across fractions: 12 to 46 % of native C was respired from POC and 3 to 10 % was respired from MOC fractions. This suggested that native C was more stabilized on the MOC than on the POC, but respiration from the added glucose was generally similar for MOC and POC fractions. Our study suggests a fundamental difference between the behavior of freshly added C and native C from MOC and POC fractions of soils.

AB Over-winter green cover crops have been reported to increase dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in groundwater, which can be used as an energy source for denitrifiers. This study investigates the impact of a mustard catch crop on in situ denitrification and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from an aquifer overlain by arable land. Denitrification rates and N2O-N/(N2O-N + N-2-N) mole fractions were measured in situ with a push-pull method in shallow groundwater under a spring barley system in experimental plots with and without a mustard cover crop. The results suggest that a mustard cover crop could substantially enhance reduction of groundwater nitrate (NO3--N) via denitrification without significantly increasing N2O emissions. Mean total denitrification (TDN) rates below mustard cover crop and no cover crop were 7.61 and 0.002 mu g kg(-1) d(-1), respectively. Estimated N2O-N/(N2O-N + N-2-N) ratios, being 0.001 and 1.0 below mustard cover crop and no cover crop respectively, indicate that denitrification below mustard cover crop reduces N2O to N-2, unlike the plot with no cover crop. The observed enhanced denitrification under the mustard cover crop may result from the higher groundwater DOC under mustard cover crop (1.53 mg L-1) than no cover crop (0.90 mg L-1) being added by the root exudates and root masses of mustard. This study gives insights into the missing piece in agricultural nitrogen (N) balance and groundwater derived N2O emissions under arable land and thus helps minimise the uncertainty in agricultural N and N2O-N balances.

AB The amplitude and timing of past glacier culminations are sensitive recorders of key climate events on a regional scale. Precisely dating young moraines using cosmogenic nuclides to investigate Holocene glacier chronologies has proven challenging, but progress in the high-sensitivity Be-10 technique has recently been shown to enable the precise dating of moraines as young as a few hundred years. In this study we use Be-10 moraine dating to reconstruct culminations of the Steingletscher, a small mountain glacier in the central Swiss Alps, throughout the Holocene. The outermost-recorded positions of Steingletscher most likely occurred in the Early Holocene and appear nearly synchronous with glacier culminations reported from other regions in the Alps. A Late-Holocene position corroborates the evidence for a significant glacier advance of similar extent to that of the Little Ice Age (LIA) similar to 3 kyr ago. Finally, fourteen boulders from different moraines yield 10Be ages between 580 and 140 years with analytical precisions mostly < 10%, dating Steingletscher advances during the LIA. Because these LIA Be-10 ages are in stratigraphic order, we tentatively distinguish four LIA glacier culminations: about 1470 CE, 1650 CE, 1750 CE and 1820 CE, which are in good agreement with existing independent records during the LIA in the Swiss Alps. These findings illustrate the high potential of the Be-10 moraine dating method to directly link paleo-glacier-chronologies to historical records and thus present-day glacier evolution.

AB Researchers worldwide view the high theoretical specific energy of the lithium-air or lithium-oxygen battery as a promising path to a transformational energy-storage system for electric vehicles. Here, we present a self-consistent material-to-system analysis of the best-case mass, volume, and cost values for the nonaqueous lithium-oxygen battery and compare them with current and advanced lithium-based batteries using metal-oxide positive electrodes. Surprisingly, despite their high theoretical specific energy, lithium-oxygen systems were projected to achieve parity with other candidate chemistries as a result of the requirement to deliver and purify or to enclose the gaseous oxygen reactant. The theoretical specific energy, which leads to predictions of an order of magnitude improvement over a traditional lithium-ion battery, is shown to be an inadequate predictor of systems-level cost, volume, and mass. This analysis reveals the importance of system-level considerations and identifies the reversible lithium-metal negative electrode as a common, critical high-risk technology needed for batteries to reach long-term automotive objectives. Additionally, advanced lithium-ion technology was found to be a moderate risk pathway to achieve the majority of volume and cost reductions.

AB Li-ion-conducting solid electrolytes are the potential solution to the severe safety issues that occur with conventional batteries based on solvent-based electrolytes. The ionic conductivity of solid electrolytes is in general too low, however, due to a high grain-boundary (GB) resistance. A thorough understanding of the ionic transport mechanism at GBs in these materials is critical for a revolutionary development of next-generation Li batteries. Herein we present the first atomic-scale study to reveal the origin of the large GB resistance; (Li3xLa2/3-x)TiO3 was chosen as a prototype material to demonstrate the concept. A strikingly severe structural and chemical deviation of about 2-3 unit cells thick was revealed at the grain boundaries. Instead of preserving the ABO(3) perovskite framework, such GBs were shown to consist of a binary Ti-O compound, which prohibits the abundance and transport of the charge carrier Li+. This observation has led to a potential strategy for tailoring the grain boundary structures. This study points out, for the first time, the importance of the atomic-scale grain-boundary modification to the macroscopic Li+ conductivity. Such a discovery paves the way for the search and design of solid electrolytes with superior performance.

AB A thin atomic layer deposition (ALD) TiO2 coating successfully stabilizes cobalt particles supported on TiO2 for aqueous-phase hydrogenation (APH) reactions by preventing leaching and sintering of cobalt. The uncoated conventional cobalt catalysts leach under the same conditions. Using Al2O3 coating of Co/gamma-Al2O3 causes the formation of an irreducible cobalt aluminate phase which has no catalytic activity. The ALD TiO2 decorated cobalt catalyst is active for APH of a range of feedstocks including furfuryl alcohol, furfural, and xylose whereas classic non-ALD cobalt catalysts have very low activity for these reactions.

AB A ternary metallic CoNiMo catalyst is electrochemically deposited on a polycrystalline gold (Au) disk electrode using pulse voltammetry, and characterized for hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) activity by temperature-controlled rotating disk electrode measurements in 0.1 M potassium hydroxide (KOH). The catalyst exhibits the highest HOR activity among all non-precious metal catalysts (e.g., 20 fold higher than Ni). At a sufficient loading, the CoNiMo catalyst is expected to outperform Pt and thus provides a promising low cost pathway for alkaline or alkaline membrane fuel cells. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations and parallel H-2-temperature programmed desorption (TPD) experiments on structurally much simpler model alloy systems show a trend that CoNiMo has a hydrogen binding energy (HBE) similar to Pt and much lower than Ni, suggesting that the formation of multi-metallic bonds modifies the HBE of Ni and is likely a significant contributing factor for the enhanced HOR activity.

AB Using spatial, longitudinal travel data of 415 vehicles over 3-18 months in the Seattle metropolitan area, this paper estimates the operating costs of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) of various electric ranges (10, 20, 30, and 40 miles) for 3, 5, and 10 years of payback period, considering different charging infrastructure deployment levels and gasoline prices. Some key findings were made. (1) PHEVs could help save around 60% or 40% in energy costs, compared with conventional gasoline vehicles (CGVs) or hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), respectively. However, for motorists whose daily vehicle miles traveled (DVMT) is significant, HEVs may be even a better choice than PHEV405, particularly in areas that lack a public charging infrastructure. (2) The incremental battery cost of large-battery PHEVs is difficult to justify based on the incremental savings of PHEVs' operating costs unless a subsidy is offered for large-battery PHEVs. (3) When the price of gasoline increases from $4/gallon to $5/gallon, the number of drivers who benefit from a larger battery increases significantly: (4) Although quick chargers can reduce charging time, they contribute little to energy cost savings for PHEVs, as opposed to Level-II chargers.

AB The behavior of particulate matter (PM) during high-concentration episodes was investigated using monitoring data from Guui station, a comprehensive air monitoring station in Seoul, Korea, from January 2008 to March 2010. Five non-Asian dust (ND) episodes and two Asian dust (AD) episodes of high PM concentrations were selected for the study. During the ND episode, primary air pollutants accumulated due to low wind speeds, and PM2.5 increased along with most other air pollutants. Particles larger than PM2.5 were also high since these particles were generated by vehicular traffic rather than wind erosion. During strong AD episodes, PM10-2.5 primarily increased and gaseous primary air pollutants decreased under high wind speeds. However, even during the AD episode, PM2.5 and gaseous primary air pollutants increased when the effects of AD were weak and wind speeds were low. This study corroborates that accumulation of air pollutants due to a drop in surface wind speed plays an important role in short-term high-concentration occurrences. However, low wind speeds could not be directly linked to local emissions because a significant portion of accumulated air pollutants resulted from long-range transport.

AB Antimony (Sb) is a contaminant of concern that can be present in elevated concentrations in shooting range soils due to mobilization from spent lead/antimony bullets. Antimony in shooting range soils has been observed as either metallic Sb(0) or as Sb(V) immobilized by iron (hydr)oxides. The absence of Sb(III) in soils is indicative of rapid Sb(III) oxidation to Sb(V) under surface soil conditions. However, the major controls on antimony oxidation and mobility are poorly understood. To better understand these controls we performed multiple batch experiments under oxic conditions to quantify the oxidation and dissolution of antimony in systems where Sb(0) is oxidized to Sb(III) and further to Sb(V). We also tested how variations in the aqueous matrix composition and the presence of metallic lead (Pb) affect the dissolution, solid phase speciation, and oxidation of antimony. We monitored changes in the aqueous antimony speciation using liquid chromatography inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LC-ICP-MS). To test which solid phases form as a result of Sb(0) oxidation, and therefore potentially limit the mobility of antimony in our studied systems, we characterized the partially oxidized Sb(0) powders by means of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD).
The observed oxidation of Sb(0) to Sb(III) and mobilization to solution is rapid: after 5-15 min of reaction the aqueous antimony concentration reached 50-600 mu M. The amount of dissolved antimony and the rate of Sb(III) oxidation to Sb(V) in deionized water is lower than what we measured in the simulated groundwater systems. Senarmontite (Sb2O3), the primary crystalline oxidation product of Sb(0), was detected after one month from the beginning of Sb(0) oxidation. The maximum aqueous Sb(III) concentration is about 30 times larger than the predicted equilibrium concentration with respect to senarmontite in the initial stages (<65 h) of our experiment. Concentrations reach equilibrium within 146-222 days. The maximum concentration of Sb(V) is controlled by cation availability for the precipitation of an antimonate. In the systems where sodium Na(I) exceeded 20 mM precipitation of mopungite is observed. No crystalline phases were detected in the systems with added lead, and the dissolved Sb(V) concentration is several orders of magnitude higher than would be expected in equilibrium with bindheimite (Pb2Sb2O7). The observed solubility of Sb(V) in the systems with Ca(II) is several orders of magnitude larger than the solubility reported for romeite (Ca2Sb2O7). The addition of Pb(0) lowered the extent of Sb(0) oxidation due to competitive oxidation or to the coupling of antimony and lead redox reactions. The results from our research can be used to identify substrates that promote precipitation of relatively insoluble antimony compounds in target berm soils and thus prevent the offsite migration of antimony from shooting range target berms.

AB Celerity-range models, where celerity is defined as the epicentral distance divided by the total traveltime (similar to the definition of group velocity for dispersed seismic surface waves), can be used for the association of infrasound automatic detections, for event location and for the validation of acoustic propagation simulations. Signals recorded from ground truth events are used to establish celerity-range models, but data coverage is uneven in both space and time. To achieve a high density of regional recordings we use data from USArray seismic stations recording air-to-ground coupled waves from explosions during the summers of 2004-2008 at the Utah Training and Test Range, in the western United States, together with data from five microbarograph arrays at regional distances (< 1000 km). We have developed a consistent methodology for analysing the infrasound and seismic data, including choosing filter characteristics from a limited group of two-octave wide filter bands and picking the maximum peak-to-peak arrival. We clearly observe tropospheric, thermospheric and stratospheric arrivals, in agreement with regional ray tracing models. Due to data availability and the dependence of infrasound propagation on the season, we develop three regional celerity-range models for the U.S. summer, with a total of 2211 data picks. The new models suggest event locations using the Geiger method could be improved in terms of both accuracy (up to 80 per cent closer to ground truth) and precision (error ellipse area reduced by > 90 per cent) when compared to those estimated using the global International Data Center model, particularly for events where stations detect arrivals at ranges < 350 km. Whilst adding data-based prior information into the Bayesian Infrasound Source Localization (BISL) method is also shown to increase precision, to increase accuracy, the parameter space must be expanded to include station-specific celerity distributions.

AB For modelling large-scale 3-D scalar-wave propagation, the finite-difference (FD) method with high-order accuracy in space but second-order accuracy in time is widely used because of its relatively low requirements of computer memory. We develop a novel staggered-grid (SG) FD method with high-order accuracy not only in space, but also in time, for solving 2- and 3-D scalar-wave equations. We determine the coefficients of the FD operator in the joint time-space domain to achieve high-order accuracy in time while preserving high-order accuracy in space. Our new FD scheme is based on a stencil that contains a few more grid points than the standard stencil. It is 2M-th-order accurate in space and fourth-order accurate in time when using 2M grid points along each axis and wavefields at one time step as the standard SGFD method. We validate the accuracy and efficiency of our new FD scheme using dispersion analysis and numerical modelling of scalar-wave propagation in 2- and 3-D complex models with a wide range of velocity contrasts. For media with a velocity contrast up to five, our new FD scheme is approximately two times more computationally efficient than the standard SGFD scheme with almost the same computer-memory requirement as the latter. Further numerical experiments demonstrate that our new FD scheme loses its advantages over the standard SGFD scheme if the velocity contrast is 10. However, for most large-scale geophysical applications, the velocity contrasts often range approximately from 1 to 3. Our new method is thus particularly useful for large-scale 3-D scalar-wave modelling and full-waveform inversion.

AB Pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM) decomposes on centennial timescale in soils, but the processes regulating its decay are poorly understood. We conducted one of the first studies of PyOM and wood decomposition in a temperate forest using isotopically labeled organic substrate, and quantified microbial incorporation and physico-chemical transformations of PyOM in situ. Stable-isotope (C-13 and N-15) enriched PyOM and its precursor wood were added to the soil at 2cm depth at ambient (N0) and increased (N+) levels of nitrogen fertilization. The carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) of added PyOM or wood were tracked through soil to 15cm depth, in physically separated soil density fractions and in benzene polycarboxylic acids (BPCA) molecular markers. After 10months in situ, more PyOM-derived C (>99% of initial C-13-PyOM) and N (90% of initial N-15-PyOM) was recovered than wood derived C (48% of C-13-wood) and N (89% under N0 and 48% under N+). PyOM-C and wood-C migrated at the rate of 126mmyr(-1) with 3-4% of PyOM-C and 4-8% of wood-C recovered below the application depth. Most PyOM C was recovered in the free light fraction (fLF) (74%), with 20% in aggregate-occluded and 6% in mineral associated fractions - fractions that typically have much slower turnover times. In contrast, wood C was recovered mainly in occluded (33%) or dense fraction (27%). PyOM addition induced loss of native C from soil (priming effect), particularly in fLF (13%). The total BPCA-C content did not change but after 10months the degree of aromatic condensation of PyOM decreased, as determined by relative contribution of benzene hexa-carboxylic acid (B6CA) to the total BPCA C. Soil microbial biomass assimilated 6-10% of C from the wood, while PyOM contributions was negligible (0.14-0.18%). The addition of N had no effect on the dynamics of PyOM while limited effect on wood.

AB The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) in New Mexico is the first geologic repository for disposal of transuranic nuclear waste from defense-related programs of the US Department of Energy. It is constructed within halite beds of the Permian-age Salado Formation. The Culebra Dolomite, confined within Rustler Formation evaporites overlying the Salado Formation, is a potential pathway for radionuclide transport from the repository to the accessible environment in the human-disturbed repository scenario. Although extensive subsurface characterization and numerical flow modeling of groundwater has been done in the vicinity of the WIPP, few studies have used natural isotopic tracers to validate the flow models and to better understand solute transport at this site. The advent of Atom-Trap Trace Analysis (ATTA) has enabled routine measurement of cosmogenic Kr-81 (half-life 229,000 yr), a near-ideal tracer for long-term groundwater transport. We measured Kr-81 in saline groundwater sampled from two Culebra Dolomite monitoring wells near the WIPP site, and compared Kr-81 model ages with reverse particle-tracking results of well-calibrated flow models. The Kr-81 model ages are similar to 130,000 and similar to 330,000 yr for high-transmissivity and low-transmissivity portions of the formation, respectively. Compared with flow model results which indicate a relatively young mean hydraulic age (similar to 32,000 yr), the Kr-81 model ages imply substantial physical attenuation of conservative solutes in the Culebra Dolomite and provide limits on the effective diffusivity of contaminants into the confining aquitards.

AB Optically pumped vertical external cavity surface emitting lasers (VECSELs) have unique characteristics that make them attractive for use in intracavity optical cooling or rare earth doped crystals. We present the development of high power VECSELs at 1020 rim for cooling ytterbium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride (Yb:YLF). The VECSEL structures use AlAs/GaAs distributed Bragg reflectors and lnGaAs/GaAsP resonant periodic gain epitaxially grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. To achieve the necessary output power, we investigated thinning the substrate to improve the thermal characteristics. We demonstrated a VECSEL structure that was grown inverted, bonded to the heat sink, and the substrate removed by chemical etching. The inverted structure allows us to demonstrate 15 W output with 27% slope efficiency. Wavelength tuning of 30 nm around 1020 nm was achieved by inserting a birefringent quartz window into the cavity. The window also narrows the VECSEL emission, going from a FWHM of 5 nm to below 0.5 nm at a pump power of 40 W (C) 2013 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The metamorphic growth of lattice-mismatched materials has allowed optimizing the bandgap combination in multijunction solar cells for the solar spectrum under consideration. Buffer structures are used to accommodate the lattice-mismatch by introducing dislocations and relaxing the material in a controlled way. However, the metamorphic buffers typically involve significant growth time and material usage, which increases the cost of these solar cells. In this work, the thinning of buffer structures with continuously, linearly graded misfit is addressed with the goal of increasing the cost-effectiveness of metamorphic multijunction solar cells. The relaxation dynamics and quality of the buffer layers analyzed were assessed by in-situ stress measurements and ex-situ measurements of residual strain, threading dislocation density and surface roughness. Their ultimate quality has been tested using these buffers as templates for the growth of 1 eV Ga0.73In0.27As solar cells. The deleterious effect of thinning the grade layer of these buffer structures from 2 to 1 mu m was investigated. it is shown that prompting the relaxation of the buffer by using a stepwise misfit jump at the beginning of the grade layer improves the quality of the thinned buffer structure. The residual threading dislocation density of the optimized thin buffers, grown at a high growth rate of 7 mu m/h, is 3 x 10(6) cm(-2), and solar cells on these buffers exhibit near-icleal carrier collection efficiency and a V-oc of 0.62 V at 1-sun direct terrestrial spectrum.

TI Static load-balanced routing for slimmed fat-trees

LA English
DT Article

ID NETWORKS
AB Slimmed fat-trees have recently been proposed and deployed to reduce costs in High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters. While existing static routing schemes such as destination-mod-k (D-mod-k) routing are load-balanced and effective for full bisection bandwidth fat-trees, they incur significant load imbalance in many slimmed fat-trees. In this work, we propose a static load balanced routing scheme, called Round-Robin Routing (RRR), for 2- and 3-level extended generalized fat-trees (XGFTs), which represent many fat-tree variations including slimmed fat-trees. RRR achieves near perfect load-balancing for any such XGFT in that links at the same level of a tree carry traffic from almost the same number of source-destination pairs. Our evaluation results indicate that on many slimmed fat-trees, RRR is significantly better than D-mod-k for dense traffic patterns due to its better load-balancing property, but performs worse for sparse patterns. We develop a combined routing scheme that enjoys the strengths of both RRR and D-mod-k by using RRR in conjunction with D-mod-k. The combined routing is a robust load-balanced routing scheme for slimmed fat-trees: it performs similar to D-mod-k for sparse traffic patterns and to RRR for dense patterns. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc.

AB This work describes a streamlined approach to the separation and purification of trace uranium and plutonium in environmental swipe samples that contain a small amount of collected bulk material. We describe key modifications to conventional techniques that result in a relatively rapid, safe, cost-effective, and efficient U and Pu separation process. Simulated samples were produced by loading appropriate U-235, U-238, and Pu-240 onto high purity cotton swipes. Uranium concentration and isotopic composition were measured by multi-collector inductively coupled mass spectrometry. Corresponding plutonium measurements were conducted with a three stage thermal ionization mass spectrometer. Quantitative U and Pu recoveries were observed with this method.

measurement; numerical simulation; correction scheme
ID HIGH-TEMPERATURES
AB As an important factor affecting the accuracy of thermal conductivity measurement, systematic (bias) error in the guarded comparative axial heat flow (cut- bar) method was mostly neglected by previous researches. This bias is primarily due to the thermal conductivity mismatch between sample and meter bars (reference), which is common for a sample of unknown thermal conductivity. A correction scheme, based on finite element simulation of the measurement system, was proposed to reduce the magnitude of the overall measurement uncertainty. This scheme was experimentally validated by applying corrections on four types of sample measurements in which the specimen thermal conductivity is much smaller, slightly smaller, equal and much larger than that of the meter bar. As an alternative to the optimum guarding technique proposed before, the correction scheme can be used to minimize the uncertainty contribution from the measurement system with non- optimal guarding conditions. It is especially necessary for large thermal conductivity mismatches between sample and meter bars.

AB Magnetically arrested accretion discs (MADs), where the magnetic pressure in the inner disc is dynamically important, provide an alternative mechanism for regulating accretion to what is commonly assumed in black hole systems. We show that a global magnetic field inversion in the MAD state can destroy the jet, significantly increase the accretion rate, and move the effective inner disc edge in to the marginally stable orbit. Reconnection of the MAD field in the inner radii launches a new type of transient outflow containing hot plasma generated by magnetic dissipation. This transient outflow can be as powerful as the steady magnetically dominated Blandford-Znajek jet in the MAD state. The field inversion qualitatively describes many of the observational features associated with the high-luminosity hard-to-soft state transition in black hole X-ray binaries: the jet line, the transient ballistic jet, and the drop in rms variability. These results demonstrate that the magnetic field configuration can influence the accretion state directly, and hence the magnetic field structure is an important second parameter in explaining observations of accreting black holes across the mass and luminosity scales.

AB We present an analysis of near-infrared integral field unit spectroscopy of the 8 o'clock arc, a gravitationally lensed Lyman break galaxy, taken with SINFONI. We explore the shape of the spatially resolved H beta profile and demonstrate that we can decompose it into three components that partially overlap (spatially) but are distinguishable when we include dynamical information. We use existing B and H imaging from the Hubble Space Telescope to construct a rigorous lens model using a Bayesian grid-based lens modelling technique. We apply this lens model to the SINFONI data cube to construct the de-lensed H beta line-flux velocity and velocity dispersion maps of the galaxy. We find that the 8 o'clock arc has a complex velocity field that is not simply explained by a single rotating disc. The H beta profile of the galaxy shows a blueshifted wing suggesting gas outflows of similar to 200 km s(-1). We confirm that the 8 o'clock arc lies on the stellar mass-oxygen abundance-star formation rate plane found locally, but it has nevertheless significantly different gas surface density (a factor of 2-4 higher) and electron density in the ionized gas (five times higher) from those in similar nearby galaxies, possibly indicating a higher density interstellar medium for this galaxy.

AB We present the distance measurement to z = 0.32 using the eleventh data release (DR) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-III Baryon Acoustic Oscillation Survey (BOSS). We use 313 780 galaxies of the low-redshift (LOWZ) sample over 7341 square degrees to compute D-V = (1264 +/- 25)(r(d)/r(d),(fid)) - a sub 2 per cent measurement - using the baryon acoustic feature measured in the galaxy two-point correlation function and power spectrum. We compare our results to those obtained in DR10. We study observational systematics in the LOWZ sample and quantify potential effects due to photometric offsets between the northern and southern Galactic caps. We find the sample to be robust to all systematic effects found to impact on the targeting of higher redshift BOSS galaxies and that the observed north-south tensions can be explained by either limitations in photometric calibration or by sample variance, and have no impact on our final result. Our measurement, combined with the baryonic acoustic scale at z = 0.57, is used in Anderson et al. to constrain cosmological parameters.

AB We present a broad-band spectral analysis of the joint XMM-Newton and Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array observational campaign of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 SWIFT J2127.4+5654, consisting of 300 ks performed during three XMM-Newton orbits. We detect a relativistic broadened iron K alpha line originating from the innermost regions of the accretion disc surrounding the central black hole, from which we infer an intermediate spin of a = 0.58(-0.17)(+0.11). The intrinsic spectrum is steep (Gamma = 2.08 +/- 0.01) as commonly found in narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies, while the cutoff energy (Ec = 108(-10)(+11)kev) falls within the range observed in broad-line Seyfert 1 galaxies. We measure a low-frequency lag that increases steadily with energy, while at high frequencies, there is a clear lag following the shape of the broad Fe K emission line. Interestingly, the observed Fe K lag in SWIFT J2127.4+5654 is not as broad as in other sources that have maximally spinning black holes. The lag amplitude suggests a continuum-to-reprocessor distance of about 10-20 r(g). These timing results independently support an intermediate black hole spin and a compact corona.

AB Visualizing the high-redshift Universe is difficult due to the dearth of available data; however, the Lyman-alpha forest provides a means to map the intergalactic medium at redshifts not accessible to large galaxy surveys. Large-scale structure surveys, such as the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), have collected quasar (QSO) spectra that enable the reconstruction of H i density fluctuations. The data fall on a collection of lines defined by the lines of sight (LOS) of the QSO, and a major issue with producing a 3D reconstruction is determining how to model the regions between the LOS. We present a method that produces a 3D map of this relatively uncharted portion of the Universe by employing local polynomial smoothing, a non-parametric methodology. The performance of the method is analysed on simulated data that mimics the varying number of LOS expected in real data, and then is applied to a sample region selected from BOSS. Evaluation of the reconstruction is assessed by considering various features of the predicted 3D maps including visual comparison of slices, probability density functions (PDFs), counts of local minima and maxima, and standardized correlation functions. This 3D reconstruction allows for an initial investigation of the topology of this portion of the Universe using persistent homology.

AB The adiabatic evolution of the temperature of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is a key prediction of standard cosmology. We study deviations from the expected adiabatic evolution of the CMB temperature of the form T(z) = T-0(1 + z)(1 - alpha) using measurements of the spectrum of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect with the South Pole Telescope (SPT). We present a method for using the ratio of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich signal measured at 95 and 150 GHz in the SPT data to constrain the temperature of the CMB. We demonstrate that this approach provides unbiased results using mock observations of clusters from a new set of hydrodynamical simulations. We apply this method to a sample of 158 SPT-selected clusters, spanning the redshift range 0.05 < z < 1.35, and measure alpha = 0.017(-0.028)(+0.030), consistent with the standard model prediction of alpha = 0. In combination with other published results, we find alpha = 0.005 +/- 0.012, an improvement of similar to 10 per cent over published constraints. This measurement also provides a strong constraint on the effective equation of state in models of decaying dark energy w(eff) =-0.994 +/- 0.010.

AB We explore the cosmological implications of the angle-averaged correlation function, xi(s), and the clustering wedges, xi(perpendicular to)(s) and xi()(s), of the LOWZ and CMASS galaxy samples from Data Releases 10 and 11 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III) Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. Our results show no significant evidence for a deviation from the standard Lambda cold dark matter model. The combination of the information from our clustering measurements with recent data from the cosmic microwave background is sufficient to constrain the curvature of the Universe to (k) = 0.0010 +/- 0.0029, the total neutrino mass to Sigma m(nu) < 0.23 eV (95 per cent confidence level), the effective number of relativistic species to N-eff = 3.31 +/- 0.27 and the dark energy equation of state to w(DE) = -1.051 +/- 0.076. These limits are further improved by adding information from Type Ia supernovae and baryon acoustic oscillations from other samples. In particular, this data set combination is completely consistent with a time-independent dark energy equation of state, in which case we find w(DE) = -1.024 +/- 0.052. We explore the constraints on the growth rate of cosmic structures assuming f(z) = (m)(z)(gamma) and obtain gamma = 0.69 +/- 0.15, consistent with the predictions of general relativity of gamma = 0.55.

AB Using three magnified Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) detected behind CLASH (Cluster Lensing and Supernovae with Hubble) clusters, we perform a first pilot study to see whether standardizable candles can be used to calibrate cluster mass maps created from strong lensing observations. Such calibrations will be crucial when next-generation Hubble Space Telescope cluster surveys (e.g. Frontier) provide magnification maps that will, in turn, form the basis for the exploration of the high-redshift Universe. We classify SNe using combined photometric and spectroscopic observations, finding two of the three to be clearly of Type Ia and the third probable. The SNe exhibit significant amplification, up to a factor of 1.7 at similar to 5 Sigma significance (SN-L2). We conducted this as a blind study to avoid fine-tuning of parameters, finding a mean amplification difference between SNe and the cluster lensing models of 0.09 +/- 0.09(stat) +/- 0.05(sys) mag. This impressive agreement suggests no tension between cluster mass models and high-redshift-standardized SNe Ia. However, the measured statistical dispersion of Sigma(mu) = 0.21 mag appeared large compared to the dispersion expected based on statistical uncertainties (0.14). Further work with the SN and cluster lensing models, post-unblinding, reduced the measured dispersion to Sigma(mu) = 0.12. An explicit choice should thus be made as to whether SNe are used unblinded to improve the model, or blinded to test the model. As the lensed SN samples grow larger, this technique will allow improved constraints on assumptions regarding e.g. the structure of the dark matter halo.

AB The participation of the valence orbitals of actinides in bonding has been debated for decades. Recent experimental and computational investigations demonstrated the involvement of 6p, 6d and/or 5f orbitals in bonding. However, structural and spectroscopic data, as well as theory, indicate a decrease in covalency across the actinide series, and the evidence points to highly ionic, lanthanide-like bonding for late actinides. Here we show that chemical differentiation between californium and lanthanides can be achieved by using ligands that are both highly polarizable and substantially rearrange on complexation. A ligand that suits both of these desired properties is polyborate. We demonstrate that the 5f, 6d and 7p orbitals are all involved in bonding in a Cf(III) borate, and that large crystal-field effects are present. Synthetic, structural and spectroscopic data are complemented by quantum mechanical calculations to support these observations.

AB In water-oxidizing photosynthetic organisms, light absorption generates a powerfully oxidizing chlorophyll complex (P680(center dot+)) in the photosystem II reaction centre. This is reduced via an electron transfer pathway from the manganese-containing water-oxidizing catalyst, which includes an electron transfer relay comprising a tyrosine (Tyr)-histidine (His) pair that features a hydrogen bond between a phenol group and an imidazole group. By rapidly reducing P680(center dot+), the relay is thought to mitigate recombination reactions, thereby ensuring a high quantum yield of water oxidation. Here, we show that an artificial reaction centre that features a benzimidazole-phenol model of the Tyr-His pair mimics both the short-internal hydrogen bond in photosystem II and, using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, the thermal relaxation that accompanies proton-coupled electron transfer. Although this artificial system is much less complex than the natural one, theory suggests that it captures the essential features that are important in the function of the relay.

AB Strontium titanate (SrTiO3) is a foundational material in the emerging field of complex oxide electronics. Although its bulk electronic and optical properties are rich and have been studied for decades, SrTiO3 has recently become a renewed focus of materials research catalysed in part by the discovery of superconductivity and magnetism at interfaces between SrTiO3 and other non-magnetic oxides. Here we illustrate a new aspect to the phenomenology of magnetism in SrTiO3 by reporting the observation of an optically induced and persistent magnetization in slightly oxygen-deficient bulk SrTiO3-delta crystals using magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectroscopy and SQUID magnetometry. This zero-field magnetization appears below similar to 18 K, persists for hours below 10 K, and is tunable by means of the polarization and wavelength of sub-bandgap (400-500 nm) light. These effects occur only in crystals containing oxygen vacancies, revealing a detailed interplay between magnetism, lattice defects, and light in an archetypal complex oxide material.

TI Gain dynamics in a soft-X-ray laser amplifier perturbed by a strong

ID 13.9 NM; COHERENT; AMPLIFICATION; GENERATION
AB Seeding soft-X-ray plasma amplifiers with high harmonics has been demonstrated to generate high-brightness soft-X-ray laser pulses with full spatial and temporal coherence(1-3). The interaction between the injected coherent field and the swept-gain medium has been modelled(4,5). However, no experiment has been conducted to probe the gain dynamics when perturbed by a strong external seed field. Here, we report the first X-ray pump-X-ray probe measurement of the nonlinear response of a plasma amplifier perturbed by a strong softX- ray ultra-short pulse. We injected a sequence of two timedelayed high-harmonic pulses (lambda = 18.9 nm) into a collisionally excited nickel-like molybdenum plasma to measure with femtosecond resolution the gain depletion induced by the saturated amplification of the high-harmonic pump and its subsequent recovery. The measured fast gain recovery in 1.5-1.75 ps confirms the possibility to generate ultra-intense, fully phasecoherent soft-X-ray lasers by chirped pulse amplification in plasma amplifiers(6).

AB Luminescent solar concentrators are cost-effective complements to semiconductor photovoltaics that can boost the output of solar cells and allow for the integration of photovoltaic-active architectural elements into buildings (for example, photovoltaic windows). Colloidal quantum dots are attractive for use in luminescent solar concentrators, but their small Stokes shift results in reabsorption losses that hinder the realization of large-area devices. Here, we use 'Stokes-shiftengineered' CdSe/CdS quantum dots with giant shells (giant quantum dots) to realize luminescent solar concentrators without reabsorption losses for device dimensions up to tens of centimetres. Monte-Carlo simulations show a 100-fold increase in efficiency using giant quantum dots compared with core-only nanocrystals. We demonstrate the feasibility of this approach by using high-optical-quality quantum dot-polymethylmethacrylate nanocomposites fabricated using a modified industrial method that preserves the light-emitting properties of giant quantum dots upon incorporation into the polymer. Study of these luminescent solar concentrators yields optical efficiencies > 10% and an effective concentration factor of 4.4. These results demonstrate the significant promise of Stokes-shift-engineered quantum dots for large-area luminescent solar concentrators.

AB Single-cell genomics is a powerful tool for exploring the genetic makeup of environmental microorganisms, the vast majority of which are difficult, if not impossible, to cultivate with current approaches. Here we present a comprehensive protocol for obtaining genomes from uncultivated environmental microbes via high-throughput single-cell isolation by FACS. The protocol encompasses the preservation and pretreatment of differing environmental samples, followed by the physical separation, lysis, whole-genome amplification and 16S rRNA-based identification of individual bacterial and archaeal cells. The described procedure can be performed with standard molecular biology equipment and a FACS machine. It takes < 12 h of bench time over a 4-d time period, and it generates up to 1 mu g of genomic DNA from an individual microbial cell, which is suitable for downstream applications such as PCR amplification and shotgun sequencing. The completeness of the recovered genomes with an average of similar to 50%.

AB Synthetic non-coding RNAs have emerged as a versatile class of molecular devices that have a diverse range of programmable functions, including signal sensing, gene regulation and the modulation of molecular interactions. Owing to their small size and the central role of Watson-Crick base pairing in determining their structure, function and interactions, several distinct types of synthetic non-coding RNA regulators that are functional at the DNA, mRNA and protein levels have been experimentally characterized and computationally modelled. These engineered devices can be incorporated into genetic circuits, enabling the more efficient creation of complex synthetic biological systems. In this Review, we summarize recent progress in engineering synthetic non-coding RNA devices and their application to genetic and cellular engineering in a broad range of microorganisms.

AB Recent developments in synthetic biology, combined with continued progress in systems biology and metabolic engineering, have enabled the engineering of microorganisms to produce heterologous molecules in a manner that was previously unfeasible. The successful synthesis and recent entry of semi-synthetic artemisinin into commercial production is the first demonstration of the potential of synthetic biology for the development and production of pharmaceutical agents. In this Review, we describe the metabolic engineering and synthetic biology approaches that were used to develop this important antimalarial drug precursor. This not only demonstrates the incredible potential of the available technologies but also illuminates how lessons learned from this work could be applied to the production of other pharmaceutical agents.

AB Shock ignition is an approach to direct-drive inertial confinement fusion (ICF) in which the stages of compression and hot spot formation are partly separated. The fuel is first imploded at a lower velocity than in conventional ICF. Close to stagnation, an intense laser spike drives a strong converging shock, which contributes to hot spot formation. Shock ignition shows potentials for high gain at laser energies below 1 MJ, and could be tested on the National Ignition Facility or Laser MegaJoule. Shock ignition principles and modelling are reviewed in this paper. Target designs and computer-generated gain curves are presented and discussed. Limitations of present studies and research needs are outlined.

AB Fusion fast ignition (FI) initiated by a laser-driven particle beam promises a path to high-yield and high-gain for inertial fusion energy. FI can readily leverage the proven capability of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) drivers, such as the National Ignition Facility, to assemble DT fusion fuel at the relevant high densities. FI provides a truly alternate route to ignition, independent of the difficulties with achieving the ignition hot spot in conventional ICF. FI by laser-driven ion beams provides attractive alternatives that sidestep the present difficulties with laser-driven electron-beam FI, while leveraging the extensive recent progress in generating ion beams with high-power density on existing laser facilities. Whichever the ion species, the ignition requirements are similar: delivering a power density approximate to 10(22) Wcm(-3) (similar to 10 kJ in approximate to 20 ps within a volume of linear dimension approximate to 20 mu m), to the DT fuel compressed to similar to 400g cm(-3) with areal density similar to 2 g cm(-2). High-current, laser-driven beams of many ion species are promising candidates to deliver such high-power densities. The reason is that high energy, high-power laser drivers can deliver high-power fluxes that can efficiently make ion beams that are born neutralized in similar to fs-ps timescales, making them immune to the charge and current limits of conventional beams. In summary, we find that there are many possible paths to success with FI based on laser-driven ion beams. Although many ion species could be used for ignition, we concentrate here on either protons or C ions, which are technologically convenient species. We review the work to date on FI design studies with those species. We also review the tremendous recent progress in discovering, characterizing and developing many ion-acceleration mechanisms relevant to FI. We also summarize key recent technological advances and methods underwriting that progress. Based on the design studies and on the increased understanding of the physics of laser-driven ion acceleration, we provide laser and ion-generation laser-target design points based on several distinct ion-acceleration mechanisms.

AB In the electron-driven fast-ignition (FI) approach to inertial confinement fusion, petawatt laser pulses are required to generate MeV electrons that deposit several tens of kilojoules in the compressed core of an imploded DT shell. We review recent progress in the understanding of intense laser-plasma interactions (LPI) relevant to FI. Increases in computational and modelling capabilities, as well as algorithmic developments have led to enhancement in our ability to perform multi-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations of LPI at relevant scales. We discuss the physics of the interaction in terms of laser absorption fraction, the laser-generated electron spectra, divergence, and their temporal evolution. Scaling with irradiation conditions such as laser intensity are considered, as well as the dependence on plasma parameters. Different numerical modelling approaches and configurations are addressed, providing an overview of the modelling capabilities and limitations. In addition, we discuss the comparison of simulation results with experimental observables. In particular, we address the question of surrogacy of today's experiments for the full-scale FI problem.

AB We provide a review of selected experiments on fast electron transport in solids and plasmas following laser-matter interaction at relativistic intensities. Particular attention is given to precise measurements of intense laser pulses, fast electron energy transfer and the mean kinetic energy of the fast electrons. We discuss in detail mechanism of fast electron energy loss in solid and warm dense targets. We show that stopping due to resistive electric field and collimation due to resistive magnetic field play significant roles in fast electron dynamics. It has also been shown that reducing the size of the target can significantly affect the K alpha production from the targets. The use of reduced-mass target can also increase temperature up to 1 keV level, which provides an excellent platform for fast electron transport without assembling the fuel. The pre-pulse is a significant issue in fast ignition for fast electron coupling to the compressed core. Indeed, we have shown using a variety of targets that the laser pre-pulse can significantly reduce transfer of energy farther into the target. In this article, we show that a significant progress has been made in understanding the critical issues of fast electron transport pertinent to fast ignition (FI). This understanding will facilitate a better target design for large scale FI integrated experiments when laser facilities become available.

AB Fast ignition (FI) inertial confinement fusion is a variant of inertial fusion in which DT fuel is first compressed to high density and then ignited by a relativistic electron beam generated by a fast (<20 ps) ultra-intense laser pulse, which is usually brought in to the dense plasma via the inclusion of a re-entrant cone. The transport of this beam from the cone apex into the dense fuel is a critical part of this scheme, as it can strongly influence the overall energetics. Here we review progress in the theory and numerical simulation of fast electron transport in the context of FI. Important aspects of the basic plasma physics, descriptions of the numerical methods used, a review of ignition-scale simulations, and a survey of schemes for controlling the propagation of fast electrons are included. Considerable progress has taken place in this area, but the development of a robust, high-gain FI 'point design' is still an ongoing challenge.

AB Integrated fast ignition experiments were performed at ILE, Osaka, and LLE, Rochester, in which a nanosecond driver laser implodes a deuterated plastic shell in front of the tip of a hollow metal cone and an intense ultrashort-pulse laser is injected through the cone to heat the compressed plasma. Based on the initial successful results of fast electron heating of cone-in-shell targets, large-energy short-pulse laser beam lines were constructed and became operational: OMEGA-EP at Rochester and LFEX at Osaka. Neutron enhancement due to heating with a similar to kJ short-pulse laser has been demonstrated in the integrated experiments at Osaka and Rochester. The neutron yields are being analysed by comparing the experimental results with simulations. Details of the fast electron beam transport and the electron energy deposition in the imploded fuel plasma are complicated and further studies are imperative. The hydrodynamics of the implosion was studied including the interaction of the imploded core plasma with the cone tip. Theory and simulation studies are presented on the hydrodynamics of a high-gain target for a fast ignition point design.

AB Plant nutrient uptake is affected by environmental stress, but how plants respond to cation-nutrient stress is poorly understood. We assessed the impact of varying degrees of cation-nutrient stress on cation uptake in an experimental plant-mineral system.
Column experiments, with red pine (Pinus resinosa Ait.) seedlings growing in sand/mineral mixtures, were conducted for up to 9 months. The Ca and K were supplied from both minerals and nutrient solutions with varying Ca and K concentrations.
Cation nutrient stress had little impact on carbon allocation after 9 months of plant growth and K was the limiting nutrient for biomass production. Measurement of Ca/Sr and K/Rb ratios allowed independent estimation of dissolution incongruency and discrimination against Sr and Rb during cation uptake processes. The fraction of K in biomass from biotite increased with decreasing K supply from nutrient solutions. The mineral anorthite was consistently the major source of Ca, regardless of nutrient treatment.
Red pine seedlings exploited more mineral K in response to more severe K deficiency. This did not occur for Ca since Ca was not limiting plant growth. Plant discrimination factors must be carefully considered to accurately identify nutrient sources using cation tracers.

AB Fast ion transport models currently implemented in the tokamak transport code TRANSP (Hawryluk 1980 Physics of Plasmas Close to Thermonuclear Conditions (Brussels: CEC)) are not capturing important aspects of the physics associated with resonant transport caused by instabilities such as toroidal Alfven eigenmodes (TAEs). This work describes the implementation of a fast ion transport model consistent with the basic mechanisms of resonant mode-particle interaction. The model is formulated in terms of a probability distribution function for the particle's steps in phase space, which is consistent with the Monte Carlo approach used in TRANSP. The proposed model is based on the analysis of the fast ion response to TAE modes through the ORBIT code (White and Chance 1984 Phys. Fluids 27 2455), but it can be generalized to higher frequency modes (e. g. compressional and global Alfven eigenmodes) and to other numerical codes or theories.

ID SOLAR-CELLS; IRRADIANCE; PERFORMANCE; SPECTRUM
AB So-called "air mass functions" of photovoltaic modules are used to approximate the effects of spectral responsivity and to correct short-circuit current to or from a reference condition. These empirical functions are determined from outdoor measurements with test modules mounted on two-axis solar trackers and then calculated from plots of normalized calibration value (short-circuit current divided by total irradiance) versus optical air mass. Because they are incorporated into a number of photovoltaic system modeling and sizing software programs, the accuracy of the functions has direct implications for system costs. We discuss the assumptions associated with these functions that are generally not considered or ignored, and study their variability with respect to atmospheric constituents. The variability study included a 6-month outdoor measurement on a crystalline-Si module and a software simulation of the same module using a solar spectral irradiance model. We conclude that air mass functions depend on the measurement location and time, and therefore are not unique to a particular device. Also, using these functions introduces two distinct errors, the magnitudes of which are unknown without knowledge of spectral irradiance conditions. Published 2012. This article is a U.S. Government work and is in the public domain in the USA.

AB Analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) offers key insight into the status of the CNS. Characterization of murine CSF proteomes can provide a valuable resource for studying CNS injury and disease in animal models. However, the small volume of CSF in mice has thus far limited individual mouse proteome characterization. Through nonterminal CSF extractions in C57Bl/6 mice and high-resolution 2D-LC MS/MS analysis of individual murine samples, we report the most comprehensive proteome characterization of individual murine CSF to date. We identified a total of 566 unique proteins, including 128 proteins from three individual CSF samples that have been previously identified in brain tissue. Our methods and analysis provide a mechanism for individual murine CSF proteome analysis. The data are available in the ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD000248 ().

TI A bio-inspired asynchronous skin system for crack detection applications
SO SMART MATERIALS AND STRUCTURES
LA English
DT Article
DE graphene oxide; asynchronous; bio-inspired; nervous system; low-power
AB In many applications of structural health monitoring (SHM) it is imperative or advantageous to have large sensor arrays in order to properly sense the state of health of the structure. Typically these sensor networks are implemented by placing a large number of sensors over a structure and running individual cables from each sensor back to a central measurement station. Data is then collected from each sensor on the network at a constant sampling rate regardless of the current timescales at which events are acting on the structure. These conventional SHM sensor networks have a number of shortfalls. They tend to have a large number of cables that can represent a single point of failure for each sensor as well as add significant weight and installation costs. The constant sampling rate associated with each sensor very quickly leads to large amounts of data that must be analyzed, stored, and possibly transmitted to a remote user. This leads to increased demands on power consumption, bandwidth, and size. It also taxes our current techniques for managing large amounts of data. For the last decade the goal of the SHM community has been to endow structures with the functionality of a biological nervous system. Despite this goal the community has predominantly ignored the biological nervous system as inspiration for building structural nervous systems, choosing instead to focus on experimental mechanics and simulation techniques. In this work we explore the use of a novel, bio-inspired, SHM skin. This skin makes use of distributed computing and asynchronous communication techniques to alleviate the scale of the data management challenge as well as reduce power. The system also periodically sends a 'heat beat' signal to provide state-of-health updates. This conductive skin was implemented using conductive ink resistors as well as with graphene-oxide capacitors.

DT Article
DE sensing skin; robust; sensor layout; crack detection; bus
ID STRAIN; INFRASTRUCTURE
AB In crack detection applications large sensor arrays are needed to be able to detect and locate cracks in structures. Emerging graphene-oxide paper sensing skins are a promising technology that will help enable structural sensing skins, but in order to make use of them we must consider how the sensors will be laid out and wired on the skin. This paper analyzes different sensor shapes and layouts to determine the layout which provides the preferred performance. A 'snaked hexagon' layout is proposed as the preferred sensor layout when both crack detection and crack location parameters are considered. In previous work we have developed a crack detection circuit which reduces the number of channels of the system by placing several sensors onto a common bus line. This helps reduce data and power consumption requirements but reduces the robustness of the system by creating the possibility of losing sensing in several sensors in the event that a single wire breaks. In this paper, sensor bus configurations are analyzed to increase the robustness of the bused sensor system. Results show that spacing out sensors in the same bus as much as possible increases the robustness of the system and that at least 3 buses are needed to prevent large segments of a structure from losing sensing in the event of a bus failure. This work is a preliminary effort toward enabling a new class of 'networked materials' that will be vitally important for next generation structural applications. 'Networked materials' have material properties related to information theoretic concepts. An example material property is 'bandwidth' per unit of material that might indicate the amount of information the material can provide about its state-of-health.

AB Recent studies suggest the long-standing discrepancy between measured and modeled leaf litter decomposition in drylands is, in part, the result of a unique combination of abiotic drivers that include high soil surface temperature and radiant energy levels and soil-litter mixing. Temperature and radiant energy effects on litter decomposition have been widely documented. However, under field conditions in drylands where soil-litter mixing occurs and accelerates decomposition, the mechanisms involved with soil-litter mixing effects are ambiguous. Potential mechanisms may include some combination of enhanced microbial colonization of litter, physical abrasion of litter surfaces, and buffering of litter and its associated decomposers from high temperatures and low moisture conditions. Here, we tested how soil-litter mixing and soil moisture interact to influence rates of litter decomposition in a controlled environment. Foliar litter of two plant species (a grass [Eragrostis lehmanniana] and a shrub [Prosopis velutina]) was incubated for 32 weeks in a factorial combination of soil-litter mixing (none, light, and complete) and soil water content (2, 4, 12% water-filled porosity) treatments. Phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs) were quantified one week into the experiment to evaluate initial microbial colonization. A complementary incubation experiment with simulated rainfall pulses tested the buffering effects of soil-litter mixing on decomposition.
Under the laboratory conditions of our experiments, the influence of soil-litter mixing was minimal and primarily confined to changes in PLFAs during the initial stages of decomposition in the constant soil moisture experiment and the oscillating soil moisture conditions of the rainfall pulse experiment. Soil-litter mixing effects on CO2 production, total phospholipid concentrations, and bacterial to total PLFA ratios were observed within the first week, but responses were fairly weak and varied with litter type and soil moisture treatment. Across the entire 32-week incubation experiment, soil moisture had a significant positive effect on mass loss, but soil-litter mixing did not. The lack of strong soil-litter mixing effects on decomposition under the moderate and relatively constant environmental conditions of this study is in contrast to results from field studies and suggests the importance of soil-litter mixing may be magnified when the fluctuations and extremes in temperature, radiant energy and moisture regimes common dryland field settings are in play.

AB At low Earth orbits, drag force is a significant source of error for propagating the motion of a spacecraft. The main factor driving the changes on the drag force is neutral density. Global atmospheric models provide estimates for the density which are significantly affected by bias due to misrepresentations of the underlying physics and limitations on the statistical models. In this work a localized predictor based on artificial neural networks is presented. Localized refers to the focus being on a specific orbit, rather than a global prediction. The predictor uses density measurements or estimates on a given orbit and a set of proxies for solar and geomagnetic activities to predict the value of the density along the future orbit of the spacecraft. The performance of the localized predictor is studied for different neural network structures, testing periods of high and low solar and geomagnetic activities and different prediction windows. Comparison with previously developed methods show substantial benefits in using artificial neural networks, both in prediction accuracy and in the potential for spacecraft onboard implementation. In fact, the proposed neural networks are computationally efficient and would be straightforward to integrate into onboard software. (C) 2014 IAA. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The present paper focuses on the development of a fully implicit, incrementally objective integration algorithm for a hypoelastic formulation of -viscoplasticity, which employs the mechanical threshold strength model to compute the material's flow stress, taking into account its dependence on strain rate and temperature. Heat generation due to high-rate viscoplastic deformation is accounted for, assuming adiabatic conditions. The implementation of the algorithm is discussed, and its performance is assessed in the contexts of implicit and explicit dynamic finite element analysis, with the aid of example problems involving a wide range of loading rates. Computational results are compared to experimental data, showing very good agreement.

AB Supercritical CO2 (scCO(2)) is a good solvent for organic compounds such as benzene, toluene, ethyl-benzene, and xylene (BTEX), phenols, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Monitoring results from geological carbon sequestration (GCS) field tests have shown that organic compounds are mobilized following CO2 injection. Such results have raised concerns regarding the potential for groundwater contamination by toxic organic compounds mobilized during GCS. Knowledge of the mobilization mechanism of organic compounds and their transport and fate in the subsurface is essential for assessing risks associated with GCS. Extraction tests using scCO(2) and methylene chloride (CH2Cl2) were conducted to study the mobilization of volatile organic compounds (VOCs, including BTEX), the PAH naphthalene, and n-alkanes by scCO(2) from representative reservoir rock and caprock obtained from depleted oil reservoirs and coal from an enhanced coal-bed methane recovery site. Results showed that the extent of mobilization for the organic compounds was a function of the source rock. In fate and transport sand column experiments, moisture content was found to have an important influence on the transport of the organic compounds. In dry sand columns the majority of the compounds were retained in the column except benzene and toluene. In wet sand columns the mobility of the BTEX was much higher than that of naphthalene. Based upon the results determined for the reservoir rock, caprock, and coal samples studied here, the risk to aquifers from contamination by organic compounds appears to be relatively low; however, further work is necessary to fully evaluate the risks.

AB Hypersaline microbial mats have been shown to produce significant quantities of H-2 under dark, anoxic conditions via cyanobacterial fermentation. This flux of a widely accessible microbial substrate has potential to significantly influence the ecology of the mat, and any consumption will affect the net efflux of H-2 that might otherwise be captured as a resource. Here, we focus on H-2 consumption in a microbial mat from Elkhorn Slough, California, USA, for which H-2 production has been previously characterized. Active biologic H-2 consumption in this mat is indicated by a significant time-dependent decrease in added H-2 compared with a killed control. Inhibition of sulfate reduction, as indicated by a decrease in hydrogen sulfide production relative to controls, resulted in a significant increase in H-2 efflux, suggesting that sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are important hydrogenotrophs. Low methane efflux under these same conditions indicated that methanogens are likely not important hydrogenotrophs. Analyses of genes and transcripts that encode for rRNA or dissimilatory sulfite reductase, using both PCR-dependent and PCR-independent metatranscriptomic sequencing methods, demonstrated that Desulfobacterales are the dominant, active SRB in the upper, H-2-producing layer of the mat (0-2mm). This hypothesis was further supported by the identification of transcripts encoding hydrogenases derived from Desulfobacterales capable of H-2 oxidation. Analysis of molecular data provided no evidence for the activity of hydrogenotrophic methanogens. The combined biogeochemical and molecular data strongly indicate that SRB belonging to the Desulfobacterales are the quantitatively important hydrogenotrophs in the Elkhorn Slough mat.

AB Thermomechanical cycling of a Ni49.9Ti50.1 (at.%) shape memory alloy was investigated. Combined ex situ macroscopic experiments and in situ neutron diffraction measurements were performed to relate the macroscopic evolution in behavior (e.g., dimensional instabilities) observed during thermal cycling to the responsible microscopic mechanism(s) through texture, internal strain, peak shape, and phase evolution from the neutron data. Pre-deformation in the austenite or martensite phases affected the macroscopic cyclic behavior (e.g., actuation strain), depending on the level of pre-strain and the associated microstructural changes. However, the pre-deformation did not completely stabilize the cyclic response. Subsequent thermomechanical cycling revealed that the martensite texture changed with continued thermal cycling, while the austenite texture did not. For the conditions investigated, stagnation of the martensite texture occurred around the eighth cycle, consistent with asymptotic saturation of the macroscopic transformation strains. Moreover, diffraction spectra peak shapes (broadening) were found to vary with cycling indicative of the accumulation of lattice defects, consistent with the constant increase in residual strain.

AB Twinning in hexagonal close-packed (hcp) metals is a multi-scale process that depends on the microstructural and mechanical response details at the polycrystalline aggregate, grain, micro, and atomic scales. Twinning can generally be regarded as a two-step process, a nucleation event followed by propagation and growth. This articles presents a stochastic model for the nucleation of deformation twins in hcp polycrystals. Twin nucleation is modeled through its dependence on lower length scale material details, such as the defect configurations at potential nucleation sites within grain boundaries, and mechanical details such as highly localized stress concentrations at the microscale in a probabilistic manner. These two aspects, the material and mechanical, must align for a successful nucleation event. The nucleation process is cast as a survival model parameterized by the local stress at the grain boundary. The model gives an explicit form for the probability distribution for the critical stress values required for twin nucleation. The model is implemented into a viscoplastic self-consistent (VPSC) crystal plasticity framework in order to test its predictive capability against previously reported statistical characterization in deformed zirconium at multiple temperatures. For implementation in VPSC, the stress concentrations are sampled from a distribution calibrated to full-field crystal plasticity simulations and a three-dimensional model of grain neighbors and distribution of grain boundary areas are implemented.(c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

AB The reactions of lattice glide dislocations with grain boundaries play a crucial role in the plastic deformation of polycrystalline materials. Recent studies on the atomic structures of [1210) symmetrical tilt grain boundaries (STGBs) in Mg and Ti showed that they can be classified into six sets of STGBs, each set sharing similar defect structures. Taking advantage of this and using molecular dynamics simulations, we explore the relationships between dislocation-STGB interactions. We show that the outcome of the reactions can be correlated with certain characteristics of the STGBs and classified into three types: (1) for STGBs with low misorientation angles, {1 O 1 2} twins nucleate via the dissociation of grain boundary dislocations (GBDs), (2) for STGBs with twin orientations (twin boundaries, TB), lattice dislocations dissociate into twinning dislocations (TDs) enabling the TBs to migrate, and (3) for STGBs that deviate from twin orientations, lattice dislocations dissociate into TDs plus residual defects. In the last case (3), the STGB can also migrate via the glide of the TDs and climb of the intrinsic GBDs. However, compared to case (2), boundary migration is difficult because the intrinsic GBDs impede the motion of the TDs. These correlations will significantly benefit the development of multi-scale materials modeling tools. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB A general asymmetric yield function is proposed with dependence on the stress invariants for pressure sensitive metals. The pressure sensitivity of the proposed yield function is consistent with the experimental result of Spitzig and Richmond (1984) for steel and aluminum alloys while the asymmetry of the third invariant is preserved to model strength differential (SD) effect of pressure insensitive materials. The proposed yield function is transformed in the space of the stress triaxaility, the von Mises stress and the normalized invariant to theoretically investigate the possible reason of the SD effect. The proposed plasticity model is further extended to characterize the anisotropic behavior of metals both in tension and compression. The extension of the yield function is realized by introducing two distinct fourth-order linear transformation tensors of the stress tensor for the second and third invariants, respectively. The extended yield function reasonably models the evolution of yield surfaces for a zirconium clock-rolled plate during in-plane and throughthickness compression reported by Plunkett et al. (2007). The extended yield function is also applied to describe the orthotropic behavior of a face-centered cubic metal of AA 2008-T4 and two hexagonal close-packed metals of high-purity a-titanium and AZ31 magnesium alloy. The orthotropic behavior predicted by the generalized model is compared with experimental results of these metals. The comparison validates that the proposed yield function provides sufficient predictability on SD effect and anisotropic behavior both in tension and compression. When it is necessary to consider r-value anisotropy, the proposed function is efficient to be used with non-associated flow plasticity by introducing a separate plastic potential for the consideration of r-values as shown in Stoughton and Yoon (2004, 2009).

AB Terminal, or postprocessing, sterilization of composite biomaterials is crucial for their use in wound healing and tissue-engineered devices. Recent research has focused on optimizing traditional biomaterial formulations to create better products for commercial and academic use which incorporate hydrophobic compounds or secondary gel networks. To use a hydrogel in a clinical setting, terminal sterilization is necessary to ensure patient safety. Lyophilization, gamma-irradiation, and ethylene oxide treatment all have negative consequences when applied to alginate scaffolds for clinical use. Here, we aim to find alternative terminal sterilization methods for alginate and alginate-based composite hydrogels which maintain the structure of composite alginate networks for use in biomedical applications. A thorough investigation of the effect of common sterilization methods on swollen alginate-based hydrogels has not been reported and therefore, this work examines autoclaving, ethanol washing, and ultraviolet light as sterilization techniques for alginate and alginate/Pluronic (R) F68 composite hydrogels. Preservation of structural integrity is evaluated using shear rheology and analysis of water retention, and efficacy of sterilization is determined via bacterial persistence within the hydrogel. Results indicate that ethanol sterilization is the best method of those investigated because ethanol washing results in minimal effects on mechanical properties and water retention and eliminates bacterial persistence. Furthermore, this study suggests that ethanol treatment is an efficacious method for terminally sterilizing interpenetrating networks or other composite hydrogel systems.

AB Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes a number of neoplastic diseases in humans. Here, we show a complex normal HPV community in a cohort of 103 healthy human subjects, by metagenomics analysis of the shotgun sequencing data generated from the NIH Human Microbiome Project. The overall HPV prevalence was 68.9% and was highest in the skin (61.3%), followed by the vagina (41.5%), mouth (30%), and gut (17.3%). Of the 109 HPV types as well as additional unclassified types detected, most were undetectable by the widely used commercial kits targeting the vaginal/cervical HPV types. These HPVs likely represent true HPV infections rather than transitory exposure because of strong organ tropism and persistence of the same HPV types in repeat samples. Coexistence of multiple HPV types was found in 48.1% of the HPV-positive samples. Networking between HPV types, cooccurrence or exclusion, was detected in vaginal and skin samples. Large contigs assembled from short HPV reads were obtained from several samples, confirming their genuine HPV origin. This first large-scale survey of HPV using a shotgun sequencing approach yielded a comprehensive map of HPV infections among different body sites of healthy human subjects.

AB Novel influenza A viruses of the H7N9 subtype [A(H7N9)] emerged in the spring of 2013 in China and had infected 163 people as of 10 January 2014; 50 of them died of the severe respiratory infection caused by these viruses. Phylogenetic studies have indicated that the novel A(H7N9) viruses emerged from reassortment of H7, N9, and H9N2 viruses. Inspections of protein sequences from A(H7N9) viruses and their immediate predecessors revealed several amino acid changes in A(H7N9) viruses that may have facilitated transmission and replication in the novel host. Since mutations that occurred more ancestrally may also have contributed to the genesis of A(H7N9) viruses, we inferred historical evolutionary events leading to the novel viruses. We identified a number of amino acid changes on the evolutionary path to A(H7N9) viruses, including substitutions that may be associated with host range, replicative ability, and/or host responses to infection. The biological significance of these amino acid changes can be tested in future studies.

AB A coupled simulation-optimization with reanalysis-based short-term weather forecasts from a regional climate model (RCM) is proposed to optimize an irrigation scheduling problem. Using different physical configurations of the climate extension of a weather research and forecasting model (CWRF) that is driven by national atmospheric model project reanalysis data, five ensemble outlooks of 15 consecutive daily forecasts have been generated during five different crop-growing seasons. Six daily climatic variables are forecasted, namely, rainfall, minimum temperature, maximum temperature, humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation. To correct the forecasts for any inherent bias, the quantile mapping method is applied to all six daily climatic variables. After bias correction, a skill assessment of the reanalysis-based RCM forecasts indicate that only the first three climatic variables are predicted with reliable accuracy; thus, average climatic means are used to replace the remaining three variables (humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation). The framework is applied to the Havana Lowlands region, Illinois, as a case study, and the value of forecasts is assessed against two baseline scenarios: no-rain forecast (a pessimistic case) and average climatology (a normal case). Using reanalysis-based RCM forecasts to guide farmers' irrigation decisions could yield about 1-3% in expected profit gain and 4-6% in water reduction when compared to the no-rain forecast scenario, and 1-6% in expected profit gain when compared to the average climatology scenario. This study is a first preliminary attempt to use an ensemble of weather simulations in the optimization of irrigation scheduling, and the developed framework can be used to incorporate operational forecasting once the reanalysis boundary is replaced by global weather forecasts.

AB We analysed the responses of 11 ecosystem models to elevated atmospheric [CO2] (eCO(2)) at two temperate forest ecosystems (Duke and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) Free-Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE) experiments) to test alternative representations of carbon (C)-nitrogen (N) cycle processes. We decomposed the model responses into component processes affecting the response to eCO(2) and confronted these with observations from the FACE experiments. Most of the models reproduced the observed initial enhancement of net primary production (NPP) at both sites, but none was able to simulate both the sustained 10-yr enhancement at Duke and the declining response at ORNL: models generally showed signs of progressive N limitation as a result of lower than observed plant N uptake. Nonetheless, many models showed qualitative agreement with observed component processes. The results suggest that improved representation of above-ground-below-ground interactions and better constraints on plant stoichiometry are important for a predictive understanding of eCO(2) effects. Improved accuracy of soil organic matter inventories is pivotal to reduce uncertainty in the observed C-N budgets. The two FACE experiments are insufficient to fully constrain terrestrial responses to eCO(2), given the complexity of factors leading to the observed diverging trends, and the consequential inability of the models to explain these trends. Nevertheless, the ecosystem models were able to capture important features of the experiments, lending some support to their projections.

AB The development of effective measures to stabilize atmospheric CO2 concentration and mitigate negative impacts of climate change requires accurate quantification of the spatial variation and magnitude of the terrestrial carbon (C) flux. However, the spatial pattern and strength of terrestrial C sinks and sources remain uncertain. In this study, we designed a spatially-explicit agroecosystem modeling system by integrating the Environmental Policy Integrated Climate (EPIC) model with multiple sources of geospatial and surveyed datasets (including crop type map, elevation, climate forcing, fertilizer application, tillage type and distribution, and crop planting and harvesting date), and applied it to examine the sensitivity of cropland C flux simulations to two widely used soil databases (i.e. State Soil Geographic-STATSGO of a scale of 1:250,000 and Soil Survey Geographic-SSURGO of a scale of 1:24,000) in Iowa, USA. To efficiently execute numerous EPIC runs resulting from the use of high resolution spatial data (56 m), we developed a parallelized version of EPIC. Both STATSGO and SSURGO led to similar simulations of crop yields and Net Ecosystem Production (NEP) estimates at the State level. However, substantial differences were observed at the county and sub-county (grid) levels. In general, the fine resolution SSURGO data outperformed the coarse resolution STATSGO data for county-scale crop-yield simulation, and within STATSGO, the area-weighted approach provided more accurate results. Further analysis showed that spatial distribution and magnitude of simulated NEP were more sensitive to the resolution difference between SSURGO and STATSGO at the county or grid scale. For over 60% of the cropland areas in Iowa, the deviations between STATSGO- and SSURGO-derived NEP were larger than 1 Mg C ha(-1) yr(-1), or about half of the average cropland NEP, highlighting the significant uncertainty in spatial distribution and magnitude of simulated C fluxes resulting from differences in soil data resolution.

AB An in situ nanolamellar Ti5Si3/TiNi composite is prepared by arc melting based on the design principle of load sharing between a hard component and a phase transforming matrix. The composite showed a compressive strength of similar to 2.5 GPa and a fracture strain of similar to 35%. In situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction analysis revealed stage-wise load transfer between the two components and the achievement of 2.1% lattice elastic strain of the brittle ceramic compound Ti5Si3, demonstrating the effectiveness of strain matching design.

AB Turbulent mixing generated by shock-driven acceleration of a perturbed interface is simulated using a new multi-component Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model closed with a two-equation - model. The model is implemented in a hydrodynamics code using a third-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory finite-difference method for the advection terms and a second-order central difference method for the gradients in the source and diffusion terms. In the present reshocked Richtmyer-Meshkov instability and mixing study, an incident shock with Mach number is generated in air and progresses into a sulfur hexafluoride test section. The time evolution of the predicted mixing layer widths corresponding to six shock tube test section lengths are compared with experimental measurements and three-dimensional multi-mode numerical simulations. The mixing layer widths are also compared with the analytical self-similar power-law solution of the simplified model equations prior to reshock. A set of model coefficients and initial conditions specific to these six experiments is established, for which the widths before and after reshock agree very well with experimental and numerical simulation data. A second set of general coefficients that accommodates a broader range of incident shock Mach numbers, Atwood numbers, and test section lengths is also established by incorporating additional experimental data for , , and with and with and previous RANS modeling. Terms in the budgets of the turbulent kinetic energy and dissipation rate equations are examined to evaluate the relative importance of turbulence production, dissipation and diffusion mechanisms during mixing. Convergence results for the mixing layer widths, mean fields, and turbulent fields under grid refinement are presented for each of the cases.

AB This work evaluates the detection sensitivity of deep subsurface pressure monitoring within an uncertain carbon dioxide sequestration system by linking the output of an analytical reduced-order model and first-order uncertainty analysis. A baseline (non-leaky) modeling run was compared against 10 different leakage scenarios, where the cap rock permeability was increased by factors of 2-100 (cap rock permeability from 10(-3) to 10(-1) millidarcy). The uncertainty variance outputs were used to develop percentile estimates and detection sensitivity for pressure throughout the deep subsurface as a function of space (lateral distance from the injection wells and vertical orientation within the reservoir) and time (years since injection), or P(x, z, t). Conditional probabilities were computed for combinations of x, z, and t, which were then used to generate power curves for detecting leakage scenarios. The results suggest that measurements of the absolute change in pressure within the target injection aquifer would not be able to distinguish small leakage rates (i.e., less than 50 x baseline) from baseline conditions, and that only large leakage rates (i.e., > 100 x baseline) would be discriminated with sufficient statistical power (> 99 %). Combining measurements, for example by taking the ratio of formation pressure in Aquifer 2/Aquifer 1, provides better statistical power for distinguishing smaller leakage rates at earlier times in the injection program. Detection sensitivity for pressure is a function of space and time. Therefore, design of an adequate monitoring network for subsurface pressure should account for this space-time variability to ensure that the monitoring system performs to the necessary design criteria, e.g., specific false-negative and false-positive rates.

AB Present design practice for soil structure interaction (SSI) problems most frequently assumes linear elastic properties of the soil and disregards geometrical nonlinearities, treating the displacements as small. However, there are numerous problems that require a more advanced approach. This paper presents an application of such numerical approaches to modeling SSI problems in the presence of large soil deformations. Simulations using Lagrangian finite element, element-free Galerkin, smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), and multi-material arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (MM-ALE) approaches were performed for two previously conducted experimental tests: (1) large-scale steel pad penetration into silty clay with sand and (2) standard cone penetration test performed on poorly graded sand. In this paper, the usefulness and the efficiency of the methods was assessed in terms of modeling robustness and computational cost. Results show that to some extent each of the utilized methods is able to capture large deformations. However, the most robust turned out to be SPH and MM-ALE methods as the only two that were successful in simulating both experiments.

AB A numerical method based on Fast Fourier Transforms to compute the thermoelastic response of heterogeneous materials is presented and validated by comparison with analytical solutions of the Eshelby inclusion problem. Spherical and cylindrical, homogeneous and inhomogeneous inclusion configurations are used to validate the results of the proposed spectral method. Dependencies of the numerical solutions on homogeneity, geometry and resolution are also explored, and the differences with respect to known analytical solutions are quantified and discussed. In the case of homogeneous inclusions, the proposed numerical method is direct, i.e. does not require iteration. Using enough resolution, the micromechanical fields predicted for these simple geometries are shown to be in good agreement with the analytical results. The specific way in which inclusions are voxelized is also explored, and its effect on local fields near interfaces is assessed. (C) 2014 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.

AB Prussian blue (PB) is an efficient drug for enhancing cesium elimination from the body. Literature data on the efficacy of PB treatment in dosages that vary from 1-10 g d(-1) was reviewed. Cesium biokinetics was simulated using a detailed systemic biokinetic model. The same model was used to simulate the maximum action of PB by interrupting the enterohepatic circulation. Model results reproduced reasonably well the literature data on the efficacy of PB administered to humans after incidental cesium intakes, as well as results from animal experiments. Maximum efficiency of the reduction of the long-term half-time is obtained with the administration of 3 g d(-1) PB to the adult. Maximum efficiency of reducing the Cs body burdens is obtained when PB is administered on the first day after the intake, due to the increase of the short-term elimination of cesium. The model predicts that reduction of the long-term half-life is not affected by the time after intake that PB is administered, as long as it is given within the interval from 1 h to 1 y after the intake.

AB The U.S. Department of Energy Order 458.1 states that the compliance with the 1 mSv annual dose constraint to a member of the public may be demonstrated by calculating dose to the maximally exposed individual (MEI) or to a representative person. Historically, the MEI concept was used for dose compliance at the Savannah River Site (SRS) using adult dose coefficients and adult male usage parameters. For future compliance, SRS plans to use the representative person concept for dose estimates to members of the public. The representative person dose will be based on the reference person dose coefficients from the U.S. DOE Derived Concentration Technical Standard and on usage parameters specific to SRS for the reference and typical person. Usage parameters and dose coefficients were determined for inhalation, ingestion and external exposure pathways. The reference intake for air, water, meat, dairy, freshwater fish, saltwater invertebrates, produce (fruits and vegetables), and grains for the 95th percentile are 17.4 m(3) d(-1), 2.19 L d(-1), 220.6 g d(-1), 674 cm(3) d(-1), 66.4 g d(-1), 23.0 g d(-1), 633.4 g d(-1) (448.5 g d(-1)and 631.7 g d(-1)) and 251.3 g d(-1), respectively. For the 50th percentile: 13.4 m(3) d(-1), 0.809 L d(-1), 86.4 g d(-1), 187 cm(3) d(-1), 8.97 g d(-1), 3.04 g d(-1), 169.5 g d(-1) (45.9 g d(-1) and 145.6 g d(-1)), 101.3 g d(-1), respectively. These parameters for the representative person were used to calculate and tabulate SRS-specific derived concentration standards (DCSs) for the pathways not included in DOE-STD-1196-2011.

AB Response to a large-scale radiological incident could require timely medical interventions to minimize radiation casualties. Proper medical care requires knowing the victim's radiation dose. When physical dosimetry is absent, radiation-specific chromosome aberration analysis can serve to estimate the absorbed dose in order to assist physicians in the medical management of radiation injuries. A mock exercise scenario was presented to six participating biodosimetry laboratories as one individual acutely exposed to Co-60 under conditions suggesting whole-body exposure. The individual was not wearing a dosimeter and within 2-3 h of the incident began vomiting. The individual also had other medical symptoms indicating likelihood of a significant dose. Physicians managing the patient requested a dose estimate in order to develop a treatment plan. Participating laboratories in North and South America, Europe, and Asia were asked to evaluate more than 800 electronic images of metaphase cells from the patient to determine the dicentric yield and calculate a dose estimate with 95% confidence limits. All participants were blind to the physical dose until after submitting their estimates based on the dicentric chromosome assay (DCA). The exercise was successful since the mean biological dose estimate was 1.89 Gy whereas the actual physical dose was 2 Gy. This is well within the requirements for guidance of medical management. The exercise demonstrated that the most labor-intensive step in the entire process (visual evaluation of images) can be accelerated by taking advantage of world-wide expertise available on the Internet.

AB We propose to design a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) constrained transmit waveform that achieves the optimal performance (following the Neyman-Pearson lemma) in detecting a target in the presence of signal-dependent interference. The direct time-domain approach allows straightforward characterizations of the correlation and PAPR properties of the designed signals, which are critically important to analyze the system performance in the presence of multiple targets and to assess the transmitter power-utilization, respectively. Therefore, instead of designing a transmit signal only for the optimal detection performance, we solve a biobjective Pareto-optimization problem, subjecting to the PAPR and total energy constraints, in order to simultaneously optimize the detection and cross-correlation performances. With extensive numerical examples, we demonstrate that PAPR-constrained signals produce nearly optimum detection performance even with a strict PAPR requirement, and also highlight the conflicting behavior of the detection and correlation performances.

AB Uranium speciation and retention mechanisms onto Savannah River Site (SRS) wetland sediments was studied using batch (ad)sorption experiments, sequential extraction, U La-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy, fluorescence mapping and mu-XANES. Under oxidized conditions, U was highly retained by the SRS wetland sediments. In contrast to other similar but much lower natural organic matter (NOM) sediments, significant sorption of U onto the SRS sediments was observed at pH < 4 and pH > 8. Sequential extraction indicated that the U species were primarily associated with the acid soluble fraction (weak acetic acid extractable) and organic fraction (Na-pyrophosphate extractable). Uranium L-3-edge XANES spectra of the U-bound sediments were nearly identical to that of uranyl acetate. Based on fluorescence mapping, U and Fe distributions in the sediment were poorly correlated, U was distributed throughout the sample and did not appear as isolated U mineral phases. The primary oxidation state of U in these oxidized sediments was U(VI), and there was little evidence that the high sorptive capacity of the sediments could be ascribed to abiotic or biotic reduction to the less soluble U(IV) species or to secondary mineral formation. Collectively, this study suggests that U may be strongly bound to wetland sediments, not only under reducing conditions by reductive precipitation, but also under oxidizing conditions through NOM-uranium bonding.

AB Over the last fifteen years the Savannah River Site (SRS) in South Carolina, USA, was selected as the site of three new plutonium facilities: the Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication Facility, Pit Disassembly and Conversion Facility, and the Pu Immobilization Plant. In order to assess the potential human and environmental risk associated with these recent initiatives, improved understanding of the fate and transport of Pu in the SRS subsurface environment is necessary. The hypothesis of this study was that the more mobile forms of Pu, Pu(V) and Pu(VI), would be reduced to the less mobile Pu(III/IV) oxidation states under ambient SRS subsurface conditions. Laboratory-scale dynamic flow experiments (i.e., column studies) indicated that Pu(V) was very mobile in SRS sediments. At higher pH values the mobility of Pu decreased and the fraction of Pu that became irreversibly sorbed to the sediment increased, albeit, only slightly. Conversely, these column experiments showed that Pu(IV) was essentially immobile and was largely irreversibly sorbed to the sediment. More than 100 batch sorption experiments were also conducted with four end-member sediments, i.e., sediments that include the chemical, textural, and mineralogical properties likely to exist in the SRS. These tests were conducted as a function of initial Pu oxidation state, pH, and contact time and consistently demonstrated that although Pu(V) sorbed initially quite weakly to sediments, it slowly, over the course of <33 days, sorbed very strongly to sediments, to approximately the same degree as Pu(IV). This is consistent with our hypothesis that Pu(V) is reduced to the more strongly sorbing form of Pu, Pu(IV). These studies provide important experimental support for a conceptual geochemical model for dissolved Pu in a highly weathered subsurface environment. That is that, irrespective of the initial oxidation state of the dissolved Pu introduced into a SRS sediment system, Pu(IV) controls the environmental transport within a couple weeks and Pu strongly binds to the sediment, limiting its mobility.

AB Most subsurface environmental radioactivity contamination is expected to eventually resurface in riparian zones, or wetlands. There are a number of extremely sharp biogeochemical interfaces in wetlands that could alter radionuclide speciation and promote accumulation. The objective of this study was to determine if a wetland concentrated I-129 emanating from a former waste disposal basin located on the Savannah River Site (SRS) in South Carolina, USA. Additionally, studies were conducted to evaluate the role of sediment organic matter in immobilizing the radioiodine. Groundwater samples were collected along a 0.7-km transect away from the seepage basin and in the downstream wetlands. The samples were analyzed for I-129 speciation (iodide (I-), iodate (IO3-), and organo-I). Groundwater I-129 concentrations in many locations in the wetlands (as high as 59.9 Bq L-1 I-129) were greatly elevated with respect to the source term (5.9 Bq L-1 I-129) I-129 concentration profiles in sediment cores were closely correlated to organic matter concentrations (r(2) = 0.992; n = 5). While the sediment organic matter promoted the uptake of I-129 to the wetland sediment, it also promoted the formation of a soluble organic fraction: 74% of the wetland groundwater I-129 could pass through a 1 kDa (<1 nm) membrane and only 26% of the I-129 was colloidal. Of that fraction that could pass through a 1 kDa membrane, 39% of the I-129 was organo-I. Therefore, while wetlands may be highly effective at immobilizing aqueous I-129, they may also promote the formation of a low-molecular-weight organic species that does not partition to sediments. This study provides a rare example of radioactivity concentrations increasing rather than decreasing as it migrates from a point source and brings into question assumptions in risk models regarding continuous dilution of released contaminants.

AB During the operational history of the Savannah River Site (SRS), many different radionuclides have been released from site facilities into the SRS environment. However, only a relatively small number of pathways, most importantly Cs-137 in fish and deer, have contributed significantly to doses and risks to the public. The "effective" half-lives (T-e) of Cs-137 (which include both physical decay and environmental dispersion) in Savannah River floodplain soil and vegetation and in fish and white-tailed deer from the SRS were estimated using long-term monitoring data. For 1974-2011, the T(e)s of Cs-137 in Savannah River floodplain soil and vegetation were 17.0 years (95% Cl = 14.2-19.9) and 13.4 years (95% Cl = 10.8-16.0), respectively. These T(e)s were greater than in a previous study that used data collected only through 2005 as a likely result of changes in the flood regime of the Savannah River. Field analyses of Cs-137 concentrations in deer collected during yearly controlled hunts at the SRS indicated an overall T-e of 15.9 years (95% Cl = 12.3-19.6) for 1965-2011; however, the T-e for 1990-2011 was significantly shorter (11.8 years, 95% Cl = 4.8-18.8) due to an increase in the rate of Cs-137 removal. The shortest Tes were for fish in SRS streams and the Savannah River (3.5-9.0 years), where dilution and dispersal resulted in rapid Cs-137 removal. Long-term data show that Tes are significantly shorter than the physical half-life of Cs-137 in the SRS environment but that they can change over time. Therefore, it is desirable have a long period of record for calculating Tes and risky to extrapolate Tes beyond this period unless the processes governing Cs-137 removal are clearly understood.

TI Performance of the Fluidized Bed Steam Reforming product under.

DE Hanford LAW; Waste form durability; Fluidized Bed Steam Reforming
ID WASTE GLASS; SODALITE; TESTS
AB Several candidates for supplemental low-activity waste (LAW) immobilization at the Hanford site in Washington State, USA are being considered. One waste sequestering technology considered is Fluidized Bed Steam Reforming (FBSR). The granular product resulting from the FBSR process is composed primarily of an insoluble sodium aluminosilicate matrix with the dominant phases being feldspathoid minerals with a 1:1:1 molar ratio of Na, Al and Si. To demonstrate the durability of the product, which can be disposed of at the unsaturated Integrated Disposal Facility (IDF) at Hanford, a series of tests has been performed using the Pressurized Unsaturated Flow (PUF) system, which allows for the accelerated weathering of the solid materials. The system maintains hydraulically unsaturated conditions, thus mimicking the open-flow and transport properties that will be present at the IDF. Two materials were tested using the system: 1) the FBSR granular product and 2) the FBSR granular product encapsulated in a geopolymer to form a monolith. Results of the experiments show a trend of relatively constant effluent concentration of Na, Si, Al, and Cs as a function of time from both materials. The elements land Re show a steady release throughout the yearlong test from the granular material but their concentrations seem to be increasing at one year from the monolith material. This result suggests that these two elements may be present in the sodalite cage structure rather than in the predominant nepheline phase because their release occurs at a different rate compared to nepheline phase. Also, these elements to not seem to reprecipitate when released from the starting material. Calculated one-year release rates for Si are on the order of 10(-6) g/(m(2) d) for the granular material and 10(-5) g/(m(2) d) for the monolith material while Re release is seen to be two orders of magnitude higher than Si release rates. SEM imaging and XRD analysis show how the alteration of the two materials is dependent on their depth in the column. This phenomenom is a result of depth-dependent solution concentrations giving rise chemical environments that may be supersaturated with respect to a number of mineral phases. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

AB A systematic study of the structure and scintillation properties of La elpasolites and related compositions with the formula Cs(2)ALa(1-y)Ce(y)X(6) (where A=Cs, Na; X=Cl, Br, I) is reported. The compounds were determined to crystallize in a variety of crystal structures. Two of the compounds studied are cubic and their structures match a prediction derived from a composition-related tolerance factor. The cubic structure was not obtained with the iodides. Upon optical and X-ray excitation, the samples show the characteristic Ce3+ emission. Depending on the host, the optimal Ce concentration varied between 0.1 and 15%. The luminosity and energy resolution were measured on 4 single crystals with the following results: Cs2NaLaCl6:4% Ce luminosity of 26,400 ph/MeV, energy resolution 4.4%; Cs3LaCl6:8% Ce luminosity of 16,000 ph/MeV, energy resolution 8.6%; Cs2NaLaBr6:4% Ce luminosity of 46,000 ph/MeV, energy resolution 3.9%; Cs3LaBr6:15% Ce luminosity of 32,500 ph/MeV, energy resolution 4.9%. Single crystals of the iodide analogs could not be obtained by the Bridgman technique due to phase separation. Polycrystalline forms of these compounds, obtained by quenching from the melt, are scintillators. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The Drell-Yan massive lepton-pair production in hadronic collisions provides a unique tool complementary to the Deep-Inelastic Scattering for probing the partonic substructures in hadrons. We review key concepts, approximations, and progress for QCD factorization of the Drell-Yan process in terms of collinear or transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions. We present experimental results from recent fixed-target Drell-Yan as well as W and Z boson production at colliders, focusing on the topics of flavor structure of the nucleon sea as well as the extraction of novel Sivers and Boer-Mulders functions via single transverse spin asymmetries and azimuthal lepton angular distribution of the Drell-Yan process. Prospects for future Drell-Yan experiments are also presented. (c) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The stress of poised cathode potential condition and carbon source switchover for functional biocathode microbial community influences is poorly understood. Using high-throughput functional gene array (GeoChip v4.2) and Illumina 16S rRNA gene MiSeq sequencing, we investigated the phylogenetic and functional microbial community of the initial inoculum and biocathode for bioelectrochemical reduction of nitrobenzene to less toxic aniline in response to carbon source switchover (from organic glucose to inorganic bicarbonate). Selective transformation of nitrobenzene to aniline maintained in the bicarbonate fed biocathode although nitrobenzene reduction rate and aniline formation rate were significantly decreased compared to those of the glucose-fed biocathode. When the electrical circuit of the glucose-fed biocathode was disconnected, both rates of nitrobenzene reduction and of aniline formation were markedly decreased, confirming the essential role of an applied electric field for the enhancement of nitrobenzene reduction. The stress of poised cathode potential condition led to clear succession of microbial communities from the initial inoculum to biocathode and the carbon source switchover obviously changed the microbial community structure of biocathode. Most of the dominant genera were capable of reducing nitroaromatics to the corresponding aromatic amines regardless of the performance mode. Heterotrophic Enterococcus was dominant in the glucose-fed biocathode while autotrophic Paracoccus and Variovorax were dominant in the bicarbonate-fed biocathode. Relatively higher intensity of diverse multi-heme cytochrome c (putatively involved in electrons transfer) and carbon fixation genes was observed in the biocarbonate-fed biocathode, likely met the requirement of the energy conservation and maintained the nitrobenzene selective reduction capability after carbon source switchover. Extracellular pilin, which are important for biofilm formation and potential conductivity, had a higher gene abundance in the glucose-fed biocathode might explain the enhancement of electro-catalysis activity for nitrobenzene reduction with glucose supply. Dominant nitroaromatics-reducing or electrochemically active bacteria and diverse functional genes related to electrons transfer and nitroaromatics reduction were associated with nitrobenzene reduction efficiency of biocathode communities in response to carbon source switchover.

AB Using the ISEEM modeling framework, we analyzed the roles of energy efficiency measures, steel commodity and international carbon trading in achieving specific CO2 emission reduction targets in the U.S iron and steel sector from 2010 to 2050. We modeled how steel demand is balanced under three alternative emission reduction scenarios designed to include national energy efficiency measures, commodity trading, and international carbon trading as key instruments to meet a particular emission restriction target in the U.S. iron and steel sector; and how production, process structure, energy supply, and system costs change with those scenarios. The results advance our understanding of long-term impacts of different energy policy options designed to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions for U.S. iron and steel sector, and generate insight of policy implications for the sector's environmentally and economically sustainable development. The alternative scenarios associated with 20% emission-reduction target are projected to result in approximately 11-19% annual energy reduction in the medium term (i.e., 2030) and 9-20% annual energy reduction in the long term (i.e., 2050) compared to the Base scenario.

AB A broad range of human diseases are associated with bacterial infections, often initiated by specific adhesion of a bacterium to the target environment. Despite the significant role of bacterial adhesion in human infectious diseases, details and mechanisms of bacterial adhesion have remained elusive. Herein, we study the physical interactions between Staphylococcus aureus, a type of micro-organism relevant to infections associated with medical implants, and nanocrystalline (nc) nickel nanostructures with various columnar features, including solid core, hollow, x-shaped and c-shaped pillars. Scanning electron microscopy results show the tendency of these bacterial cells to attach to the nickel nanostructures. Moreover, unique single bacterium attachment characteristics were observed on nickel nanostructures with dimensions comparable to the size of a single bacterium. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Over the past five years we have developed a solution based technique for synthesizing high quality epitaxial thin films of actinide materials. These films include oxides (UO2, U3O8, PuO2, and NpO2), UC2, UN2, UC2-xOx, and UN2-xOx. These nearly single crystal quality films have allowed unprecedented experimental measurements (ARPES, optical band gap, electrical conductivity, and XRD). These data have bench marked and advanced DFT theoretical predictions and understanding of bonding and electronic structure in f-orbital actinide materials. The synthesis and characterization of the films, measurement of electronic structure, and the resulting validation of theoretical models are reviewed. The potential impacts of this work in areas ranging from nuclear energy to environmental fate of actinides in the environment are discussed. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB A mechanistic understanding of microbial assimilation of soil organic carbon is important to improve Earth system models' ability to simulate carbon-climate feedbacks. A simple modelling framework was developed to investigate how substrate quality and environmental controls over microbial activity regulate microbial assimilation of soil organic carbon and on the size of the microbial biomass. Substrate quality has a positive effect on microbial assimilation of soil organic carbon: higher substrate quality leads to higher ratio of microbial carbon to soil organic carbon. Microbial biomass carbon peaks and then declines as cumulative activity increases. The simulated ratios of soil microbial biomass to soil organic carbon are reasonably consistent with a recently compiled global data set at the biome level. The modelling framework developed in this study offers a simple approach to incorporate microbial contributions to the carbon cycling into Earth system models to simulate carbon-climate feedbacks and explain global patterns of microbial biomass.

AB Integrated environmental modeling (IEM) includes interdependent science-based components that comprise an appropriate software modeling system and are responsible for consuming and producing information as part of the system, but moving information from one component to another (i.e., interoperability) is the responsibility of the IEM software system. We describe and discuss the Framework for Risk Analysis in Multimedia Environmental Systems (FRAMES), a component-based IEM system, from the standpoint of software design requirements which define system functionalities. Design requirements were identified in a series of workshops, attended by IEM practitioners, and reported in the development of a number of IEM software systems. The requirements cover issues associated with standards, component connectivity, linkage protocols, system architecture and functionality, and web-based access, all of which facilitate the creation of plug & play components from stand-alone models through a series of software support tools and standards.

AB The realistic representation of key biogeophysical and biogeochemical functions is the fundamental of process-based ecosystem models. A functional test platform is designed to create direct linkages between site measurements and the process-based ecosystem model within the Community Earth System Models (CESM). The platform consists of three major parts: 1) interactive user interfaces, 2) functional test models and 3) observational datasets. It provides much needed integration interfaces for both field experimentalists and ecosystem modelers to improve the model's representation of ecosystem processes within the CESM framework without large software overhead.

AB Standardized methods are often used to assess the likelihood of a human-health effect from exposure to a specified hazard, and inform opinions and decisions about risk management and communication. A Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment (QMRA) is specifically adapted to detail potential human-health risks from exposure to pathogens; it can include fate and transport models for various media, including the source zone (initial fecal release), air, soil/land surface, surface water, vadose zone and aquifer. The analysis step of a QMRA can be expressed as a system of computer-based data delivery and modeling that integrates interdisciplinary, multiple media, exposure and effects models and databases. Although QMRA does not preclude using source-term and fate and transport models, it is applied most commonly where the source-term is represented by the receptor location (i.e., exposure point), so the full extent of exposure scenarios has not been rigorously modeled. An integrated environmental modeling infrastructure is, therefore, ideally suited to include fate and transport considerations and link the risk assessment paradigm between source and receptor seamlessly. A primary benefit of the source-to-outcome approach is that it allows an expanded view of relevant cause-and-effect relationships, which facilitate consideration of management options related to source terms and their fate and transport pathways. The Framework for Risk Analysis in Multimedia Environmental Systems (FRAMES) provides software technology for analysts to insert appropriate models and databases that fit the problem statement and design and construct QMRAs that are reproducible, flexible, transferable, reusable, and transparent. A sample application using different models and databases registered with FRAMES is presented. It illustrates how models are linked to assess six different manure-based contaminant sources, following three pathogens (Salmonella eterica, Cryptosporidium spp., and Escherichia coli O157:H7) to a receptor where exposures and health risk impacts are then evaluated. The modeling infrastructure demonstrates how analysts could use the system to discern which pathogens might be important and when, and which sources could contribute to their importance.

AB The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently invested in developing a numerical modeling toolset called ASCEM (Advanced Simulation Capability for Environmental Management) to support modeling analyses at legacy waste sites. This investment includes the development of an open-source user environment called Akuna that manages subsurface simulation workflows. Core toolsets accessible through the Akuna user interface include model setup, grid generation, sensitivity analysis, model calibration, and uncertainty quantification. Additional toolsets are used to manage simulation data and visualize results. This new workflow technology is demonstrated by streamlining model setup, calibration, and uncertainty analysis using high performance computation for the BC Cribs Site, a legacy waste area at the Hanford Site in Washington State. For technetium-99 transport, the uncertainty assessment for potential remedial actions (e.g., surface infiltration covers) demonstrates that using multiple realizations of the geologic conceptual model results in greater variation in concentration predictions than when a single model is used.

AB Cerebral aneurysms treated by traditional endovascular methods using platinum coils have a tendency to be unstable, either due to chronic inflammation, compaction of coils, or growth of the aneurysm. We propose to use alternate filling methods for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms using polyurethane-based shape memory polymer (SMP) foams. SMP polyurethane foams were surgically implanted in a porcine aneurysm model to determine biocompatibility, localized thrombogenicity, and their ability to serve as a stable filler material within an aneurysm. The degree of healing was evaluated via gross observation, histopathology, and low vacuum scanning electron microscopy imaging after 0, 30, and 90 days. Clotting was initiated within the SMP foam at time 0 (<1 h exposure to blood before euthanization), partial healing was observed at 30 days, and almost complete healing had occurred at 90 days in vivo, with minimal inflammatory response.

AB Using the concept of self-entanglement, through which a pure state constructed in an augmented Hilbert space can describe a mixed state and through which the effects of physical decoherence can be mapped onto systems separated by an infinite distance, with the role of environmental states assumed by system states in disjoint Hilbert spaces, we show that expectation values of Hamiltonians subscribing to decoherence and satisfying the condition of extensivity, defined in the text, obey the energy convexity relation. The analysis based on self-entanglement also leads to a surprising interpretation of the failure of the convexity relation for model Hamiltonians such as the Hubbard model: The failure is due to the existence of self-entangled states with lower energies than the ground state so that in such models decoherence, i.e., disentangling from the self-entangled states, would cost energy and disallow the observation of the state through measurement. The Hubbard model is discussed extensively in an appendix where we also discuss and resolve some of the counterarguments to the convexity relation that have been advanced in the literature.

AB Studies with the variable J method have reported that mesophyll conductance (g(m)) rapidly decreases with increasing intercellular CO2 partial pressures (C-i) or decreasing irradiance. Similar responses have been suggested with the online isotope discrimination method, although with less consistency. Here we show that even when the true g(m) is constant, the variable J method can produce an artefactual dependence of g(m) on C-i or irradiance similar to those reported in previous studies for any of the following factors: day respiration and chloroplastic CO2 photocompensation point are estimated with Laisk method; C-i or electron transport rate is positively biased; net photosynthetic rate is negatively biased; insufficient NADPH is assumed while insufficient ATP limits RuBP regeneration. The isotopic method produces similar artefacts if fractionation of carboxylation or C-i is positively biased or Delta(13) negatively biased. A non-zero chloroplastic resistance to CO2 movement results in a qualitatively different dependence of g(m) on C-i or irradiance and this dependence is only sensitive at low C-i. We thus cannot rule out the possibility that previously reported dependence of g(m) on C-i or irradiance is a methodological artefact. Recommendations are made to take advantage of sensitivities of the variable J and isotopic methods for estimating g(m).

DT Article
DE Common-cause failure; Alpha-factor model; Epistemic uncertainty;
Conjugate prior; Imprecise Dirichlet model
AB In a standard Bayesian approach to the alpha-factor model for common-cause failure, a precise Dirichlet prior distribution models epistemic uncertainty in the alpha-factors. This Dirichlet prior is then updated with observed data to obtain a posterior distribution, which forms the basis for further inferences.
In this paper, we adapt the imprecise Dirichlet model of Walley to represent epistemic uncertainty in the alpha-factors. In this approach, epistemic uncertainty is expressed more cautiously via lower and upper expectations for each alpha-factor, along with a learning parameter which determines how quickly the model learns from observed data. For this application, we focus on elicitation of the learning parameter, and find that values in the range of 1 to 10 seem reasonable. The approach is compared with Kelly and Atwood's minimally informative Dirichlet prior for the alpha-factor model, which incorporated precise mean values for the alpha-factors, but which was otherwise quite diffuse.
Next, we explore the use of a set of Gamma priors to model epistemic uncertainty in the marginal failure rate, expressed via a lower and upper expectation for this rate, again along with a learning parameter. As zero counts are generally less of an issue here, we find that the choice of this learning parameter is less crucial.
Finally, we demonstrate how both epistemic uncertainty models can be combined to arrive at lower and upper expectations for all common-cause failure rates. Thereby, we effectively provide a full sensitivity analysis of common-cause failure rates, properly reflecting epistemic uncertainty of the analyst on all levels of the common-cause failure model.

AB Lack of appropriate and sufficient human performance data has been identified as a key factor affecting human reliability analysis (HRA) quality especially in the estimation of human error probability (HEP). The Scenario Authoring, Characterization, and Debriefing Application (SACADA) database was developed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to address this data need. An agreement between NRC and the South Texas Project Nuclear Operating Company (STPNOC) was established to support the SACADA development with aims to make the SACADA tool suitable for implementation in the nuclear power plants' operator training program to collect operator performance information. The collected data would support the STPNOC's operator training program and be shared with the NRC for improving HRA quality. This paper discusses the SACADA data taxonomy, the theoretical foundation, the prospective data to be generated from the SACADA raw data to inform human reliability and human performance, and the considerations on the use of simulator data for HRA. Each SACADA data point consists of two information segments: context and performance results. Context is a characterization of the performance challenges to task success. The performance results are the results of performing the task. The data taxonomy uses a macrocognitive functions model for the framework. At a high level, information is classified according to the macrocognitive functions of detecting the plant abnormality, understanding the abnormality, deciding the response plan, executing the response plan, and team related aspects (i.e., communication, teamwork, and supervision). The data are expected to be useful for analyzing the relations between context, error modes and error causes in human performance. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This paper presents effective and accurate approaches in vibration-based wind turbine drivetrain component condition monitoring. Detailed spectral analysis and acceleration enveloping techniques were used to effectively extract the gear and bearing damage features. Synchronous analysis was used to accurately detect specific damage features during constantly varying operational conditions. A typical wind turbine gearbox amplifies shaft speed two orders of magnitude from the rotor to the generator. To account for all necessary vibration signatures, synchronous sampling must be carried out for multiple revolutions and at a relatively high rate. The synchronous sampling used in this paper was carried out in the digital domain after both the keyphasor and the vibration signals were digitized at high sampling rate and high sampling resolution analog-to-digital conversion. Sometimes, the shaft speed is provided in a speed time history format, as in the case of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) Round Robin project. To carry out synchronous sampling using the speed time history, a unique synthesized synchronous sampling technique was adopted. The approach presented in this paper was realized using MATLAB (MathWorks, Natick, MA) codes and then validated with a wind turbine field case. It was also applied to the NREL wind turbine drivetrain condition monitoring Round Robin project. The identified damage results using the techniques discussed were compared with post-test inspection results with good correlation. Copyright (c) 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB Characterization of candidate surrogate spores prior to experimental use is critical to confirm that the surrogate characteristics are as closely similar as possible to those of the pathogenic agent of interest. This review compares the physical properties inherent to spores of Bacillus anthracis (Ba) and Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) that impact their movement in air and interaction with surfaces, including size, shape, density, surface morphology, structure and hydrophobicity. Also evaluated is the impact of irradiation on the physical properties of both Bacillus species. Many physical features of Bt and Ba have been found to be similar and, while Bt is considered typically non-pathogenic, it is in the B. cereus group, as is Ba. When cultured and sporulated under similar conditions, both microorganisms share a similar cylindrical pellet shape, an aerodynamic diameter of approximately 1 mu m (in the respirable size range), have an exosporium with a hairy nap, and have higher relative hydrophobicities than other Bacillus species. While spore size, morphology, and other physical properties can vary among strains of the same species, the variations can be due to growth/sporulation conditions and may, therefore, be controlled. Growth and sporulation conditions are likely among the most important factors that influence the representativeness of one species, or preparation, to another. All Bt spores may, therefore, not be representative of all Ba spores. Irradiated spores do not appear to be a good surrogate to predict the behavior of non-irradiated spores due to structural damage caused by the irradiation. While the use of Bt as a surrogate for Ba in aerosol testing appears to be well supported, this review does not attempt to narrow selection between Bt strains. Comparative studies should be performed to test the hypothesis that viable Ba and Bt spores will behave similarly when suspended in the air (as an aerosol) and to compare the known microscale characteristics versus the macroscale response.

AB On February 25, 1999, the Oskarshamn-2 NPP experienced a stability event which culminated in diverging power oscillations. The event was successfully modeled by the TRACE/PARCS coupled system code, and further uncertainty analysis of the event is described in this paper. The results show very good agreement with the plant data, capturing the entire behavior of the transient including the onset of instability, growth of the oscillations, and oscillation frequency. This provides confidence in the prediction of other parameters which are not available from the plant records. The event provides coupled code validation for a challenging BWR stability event, which involves the accurate simulation of neutron kinetics (NK), thermal-hydraulics (TH), and TH/NK coupling. The success of this work has demonstrated the ability of the 3-D coupled systems code TRACE/PARCS to capture the complex behavior of BWR stability events. The problem was released as an international OECD/NEA benchmark, and it is the first benchmark based on measured plant data for a stability event with a DR greater than one. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

AB A study of BWR out-of-phase oscillations has been performed with the TRACE/PARCS coupled code system. Unstable power oscillations with a time-dependent, rotating line of symmetry have been successfully simulated using input models from two different BWRs and applying simple Anticipated Transient Without Scram (ATWS) scenarios. The X-modes of the neutron flux were calculated using an implicitly-restarted Arnoldi solver, and the time-dependent amplitudes of the fundamental, first azimuthal, and second azimuthal power modes were determined for each simulation. After progressing in an irregular, sporadic fashion, the oscillations appeared to transition into a clear "rotating mode" that was sustained indefinitely with a fixed phase shift between modes of roughly 90 degrees. Because the phase shift did not gradually change over time, despite each mode having a different natural frequency in the linear range, the conclusion was made that a nonlinear interaction mechanism was active between the first and second subcritical azimuthal modes to maintain the constant phase shift during the limit cycle. An additional study was performed which found that a small perturbation is capable of drastically affecting the development of oscillations in a simulation when both modes (in-phase and out-of-phase) are unstable; when one of the models was modified to include a small-amplitude noise source on the first azimuthal mode, purely out-of-phase oscillations were observed, whereas the oscillations had been purely in-phase for the first 55 s when no noise signal was included. Because most ATWS event calculations involve mostly in-phase perturbations to the BWR core, it is recommended to add a small out-of-phase perturbation in simulations where both the in-phase and out-of-phase modes may be unstable.

AB Template-synthesized mesoporous carbons were successfully used in in vitro investigations of controlled delivery of three model drugs, captopril, furosemide, and ranitidine hydrochloride (HCl). Captopril and furosemide exhibited desorption kinetics over 30-40 h, and ranitidine. HCl had a complete release time of 5-10 h. As evident from the slow release kinetics, the mesoporous carbons have excellent potential for the controlled-release media of the specific drugs targeted towards oral delivery. The mesoporous carbons, synthesized from phloroglucinol and lignin, a synthetic and a sustainable precursor, respectively, exhibit BET surface area of 200-400 m(2) g(-1) and pore volume of 0.2-0.6 cm(3) g(-1). The synthetic carbon has narrower pore widths and higher pore volume than the renewable counterpart and maintains a longer release time. The release kinetics reveals that the diffusivities of the drugs from carbon media are of equivalent magnitude (10(-22) to 10(-24) m(2) s(-1)). However, a tailored reduction of pore width in the sorbent reduces the diffusivity of smaller drug molecule by an order of magnitude. Thus, engineered pore morphology, along with its functionalization potential for specific interaction, can be exploited for optimal delivery system of a preferred drug. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Titanium nitride (TiN,) coatings were grown by magnetron sputtering onto Si(100) substrates by varying time of deposition to produce coatings with variable thickness (d(TiN)) in the range of 20-120 nit. TiNx coatings were characterized by studying their structure, composition, and mechanical properties. Nuclear reaction analysis (NRA) combined with Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) analyses indicate that the grown coatings were stoichiometric TiN. Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) measurements indicate that the texturing of TiN coatings changes as a function of d(TiN). The (111) and (002) peaks appear initially; (111) becomes intense while (002) disappears with increasing d(TiN). Dense, columnar grain structure was evident for all the coatings in electron microscopy analyses. The residual stress for TiN coatings with d(TIN)similar to 120 nm was 1.07 GPa in compression while thinner samples exhibit higher values of stress. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd and Tecluia Group S.r.l.

AB About a third of the approximately 30 known deposits in the Furnace Creek, California, borate district reveal mineralogical zoning of borates. The deposits feature an Na-Ca borate (ulexite and/or probertite) inner zone (or zones) surrounded by Ca borate (colemanite). The remaining deposits consist essentially of colemanite. Investigators have debated the origin of the mineralogical zoning and the relationship, if any, between the zoned and colemanite-only deposits. The Ca and Na-Ca borate zoning has been characterized as either primary or formed by postdepositional alteration.
Boron isotope analysis was applied to drill core samples from two zoned deposits, one non-zoned deposit, and selected samples from six other deposits accessed from surface and subsurface mine workings. Probertite samples from the inner regions of two zoned deposits yield delta B-11 values near 5 parts per thousand, whereas most colemanite samples from both zoned and non-zoned deposits yield results near -1 parts per thousand. The small delta B-11 range of most of the colemanite samples and their distribution from a grouping near 0 parts per thousand to isotopically lighter values suggest a pattern formed by alteration from a common initial value.
Based on the new isotopic data and existing sedimentologic and stratigraphic knowledge of the Furnace Creek borate deposits, it is proposed that the isotopically heavier boron of probertite in the inner zone of zoned deposits reflects the composition of the ancestral lake and its springs during an early stage of deposition of the laminated series of the Furnace Creek Formation. Furthermore, the isotopically lighter B of colemanite in zoned deposits reflects the alteration of earlier formed Na-Ca borate deposits by downward migrating lake water at a later stage of deposition of the laminated series. Some non-zoned Ca borate deposits may have been precipitated directly during the later stages.

AB The objective of the present work is to enhancing the toughness and minimizing the CTE of a special class of bisphenol E cyanate ester (BECy) resin by blending it with a thermoplastic toughening agent. Poly(ether sulfone) was chosen as a high temperature resistant thermoplastic resin to enhance the thermo-mechanical properties of BECy. The influence of poly(ether sulfone)/BECy blend composition on the morphology and phase behavior was studied using scanning electron microscopy and dynamic mechanical analysis. The mechanical properties of the blends were evaluated by flexural tests, which demonstrated significant enhancement in the material's toughness with an increase in PES concentration from 0 to 15 wt%. The coefficient of thermal expansion of pure BECy was reduced from 61 to 48 ppm/degrees C in the blends with PES, emphasizing the multi-functional benefits of PES as a toughening agent in BECy.

AB In this study, we developed a prior-knowledge-based spectral mixture analysis (PKSMA) to map impervious surfaces by using endmembers derived separately for high- and low-density urban regions. First, an urban area was categorized into high- and low-density urban areas, using a multi-step classification method. Next, in high-density urban areas that were assumed to have only vegetation and impervious surfaces (ISs), the vegetation-impervious model (V-I) was used in a spectral mixture analysis (SMA) with three endmembers: vegetation, high albedo, and low albedo. In low-density urban areas, the vegetation-impervious-soil model (V-I-S) was used in an SMA analysis with four endmembers: high albedo, low albedo, soil, and vegetation. The fraction of IS with high and low albedo in each pixel was combined to produce the final IS map. The root mean-square error (RMSE) of the IS map produced using PKSMA was about 11.0%, compared to 14.52% only using four-endmember SMA. Particularly in high-density urban areas, PKSMA (RMSE = 6.47%) showed better performance than four-endmember (15.91%). The results indicate that PKSMA can improve IS mapping compared to traditional SMA by using appropriately selected endmembers and is particularly strong in high-density urban areas.

AB Understanding the mechanism of nanoparticle formation during synthesis is a key prerequisite for the rational design and engineering of desirable materials properties, yet remains elusive due to the difficulty of studying structures at the nanoscale under real conditions. Here, the first comprehensive structural description of the formation of a nanoparticle, yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), all the way from its ionic constituents in solution to the final crystal, is presented. The transformation is a complicated multi-step sequence of atomic reorganizations as the material follows the reaction pathway towards the equilibrium product. Prior to nanoparticle nucleation, reagents reorganize into polymeric species whose structure is incompatible with the final product. Instead of direct nucleation of clusters into the final product lattice, a highly disordered intermediate precipitate forms with a local bonding environment similar to the product yet lacking the correct topology. During maturation, bond reforming occurs by nucleation and growth of distinct domains within the amorphous intermediary. The present study moves beyond kinetic modeling by providing detailed real-time structural insight, and it is demonstrated that YSZ nanoparticle formation and growth is a more complex chemical process than accounted for in conventional models. This level of mechanistic understanding of the nanoparticle formation is the first step towards more rational control over nanoparticle synthesis through control of both solution precursors and reaction intermediaries.

AB Colloidal gels have unique properties due to a complex microstructure which forms into an extended network. Although the bulk properties of colloidal gels have been studied, there has been difficulty correlating those properties with individual colloidal dynamics on the microscale due to the very high viscosity and elasticity of the material. We utilize rotational X-ray tracking (RXT) to investigate the rotational motion of component crystalline colloidal particles in a colloidal gel of alumina and decanoic acid. Our investigation has determined that the high elasticity of the bulk is echoed by a high elasticity experienced by individual colloidal particles themselves but also finds an unexpected high degree of rotational diffusion, indicating a large degree of freedom in the rotational motion of individual colloids even within a tightly bound system.

AB Whereas the vast majority of the more than 85 000 crystal structures of macromolecules currently deposited in the Protein Data Bank are of high quality, some suffer from a variety of imperfections. Although this fact has been pointed out in the past, it is still worth periodic updates so that the metadata obtained by global analysis of the available crystal structures, as well as the utilization of the individual structures for tasks such as drug design, should be based on only the most reliable data. Here, selected abnormal deposited structures have been analysed based on the Bayesian reasoning that the correctness of a model must be judged against both the primary evidence as well as prior knowledge. These structures, as well as information gained from the corresponding publications (if available), have emphasized some of the most prevalent types of common problems. The errors are often perfect illustrations of the nature of human cognition, which is frequently influenced by preconceptions that may lead to fanciful results in the absence of proper validation. Common errors can be traced to negligence and a lack of rigorous verification of the models against electron density, creation of non-parsimonious models, generation of improbable numbers, application of incorrect symmetry, illogical presentation of the results, or violation of the rules of chemistry and physics. Paying more attention to such problems, not only in the final validation stages but during the structure-determination process as well, is necessary not only in order to maintain the highest possible quality of the structural repositories and databases but most of all to provide a solid basis for subsequent studies, including large-scale data-mining projects. For many scientists PDB deposition is a rather infrequent event, so the need for proper training and supervision is emphasized, as well as the need for constant alertness of reason and critical judgment as absolutely necessary safeguarding measures against such problems. Ways of identifying more problematic structures are suggested so that their users may be properly alerted to their possible shortcomings.

AB Microbial activities in soils, such as (incomplete) denitrification, represent major sources of nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas. The key enzyme for mitigating N2O emissions is NosZ, which catalyzes N2O reduction to N-2. We recently described "atypical" functional NosZ proteins encoded by both denitrifiers and nondenitrifiers, which were missed in previous environmental surveys (R. A. Sanford et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 109:19709-19714, 2012, doi:10.1073/pnas.1211238109). Here, we analyzed the abundance and diversity of both nosZ types in whole-genome shotgun metagenomes from sandy and silty loam agricultural soils that typify the U. S. Midwest corn belt. First, different search algorithms and parameters for detecting nosZ metagenomic reads were evaluated based on in silico-generated (mock) metagenomes. Using the derived cutoffs, 71 distinct alleles (95% amino acid identity level) encoding typical or atypical NosZ proteins were detected in both soil types. Remarkably, more than 70% of the total nosZ reads in both soils were classified as atypical, emphasizing that prior surveys underestimated nosZ abundance. Approximately 15% of the total nosZ reads were taxonomically related to Anaeromyxobacter, which was the most abundant genus encoding atypical NosZ-type proteins in both soil types. Further analyses revealed that atypical nosZ genes outnumbered typical nosZ genes in most publicly available soil metagenomes, underscoring their potential role in mediating N2O consumption in soils. Therefore, this study provides a bioinformatics strategy to reliably detect target genes in complex short-read metagenomes and suggests that the analysis of both typical and atypical nosZ sequences is required to understand and predict N2O flux in soils.
IMPORTANCE Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas with ozone layer destruction potential. Microbial activities control both the production and the consumption of N2O, i.e., its conversion to innocuous dinitrogen gas (N-2). Until recently, consumption of N2O was attributed to bacteria encoding "typical" nitrous oxide reductase (NosZ). However, recent phylogenetic and physiological studies have shown that previously uncharacterized, functional, "atypical" NosZ proteins are encoded in genomes of diverse bacterial groups. The present study revealed that atypical nosZ genes outnumbered their typical counterparts, highlighting their potential role in N2O consumption in soils and possibly other environments. These findings advance our understanding of the diversity of microbes and functional genes involved in the nitrogen cycle and provide the means (e. g., gene sequences) to study N2O fluxes to the atmosphere and associated climate change.

DT Article
DE Property testing; Sublinear algorithms; Submodular functions
ID SET FUNCTIONS; APPROXIMATIONS; COMPLEXITY
AB We initiate the study of property testing of submodularity on the boolean hypercube. Submodular functions come up in a variety of applications in combinatorial optimization. For a vast range of algorithms, the existence of an oracle to a submodular function is assumed. But how does one check if this oracle indeed represents a submodular function?
Consider a function f:{0,1} (n) -> a"e. The distance to submodularity is the minimum fraction of values of f that need to be modified to make f submodular. If this distance is more than I mu > 0, then we say that f is I mu-far from being submodular. The aim is to have an efficient procedure that, given input f that is I mu-far from being submodular, certifies that f is not submodular. We analyze a natural tester for this problem, and prove that it runs in subexponential time. This gives the first non-trivial tester for submodularity. On the other hand, we prove an interesting lower bound (that is, unfortunately, quite far from the upper bound) suggesting that this tester cannot be efficient in terms of I mu. This involves non-trivial examples of functions which are far from submodular and yet do not exhibit too many local violations.
We also provide some constructions indicating the difficulty in designing a tester for submodularity. We construct a partial function defined on exponentially many points that cannot be extended to a submodular function, but any strict subset of these values can be extended to a submodular function.

AB Single crystals of RCO2Ge2 (R=Y, La-Nd, Sm-Tm) were grown using a self flux method and were characterized by room temperature powder X-ray diffraction; anisotropic, temperature and field dependent magnetization; temperature and field dependent, in plane resistivity; and specific heat measurements. In this series, the majority of the moment bearing members order antiferromagnetically; YCO2Ge2 and LaCo2Ge2 are non-moment-bearing. Ce is trivalent in CeCo2Ge2 at high temperatures, and exhibits an enhanced electronic specific heat coefficient due to the Kondo effect at low temperatures. In addition, CeCo2Ge2 shows two low temperature anomalies in temperature dependent magnetization and specific heat measurements. Three members (R=Tb-Ho) have multiple phase transitions above 1.8 K. Eu appears to be divalent with total angular momentum L=0. Both EuCo2Ge2 and GclCo(2)Ge(2) manifest essentially isotropic paramagnetic properties consistent with J=S=7/12. Clear magnetic anisotropy for rare-earth members with finite L was observed, with ErCo2Ge2 and TrnCo(2)Ge(2) manifesting planar anisotropy and the rest members manifesting axial anisotropy. The experimentally estimated crystal electric field (CU) parameters.89 were calculated from the anisotropic paramagnetic 0,a, and 0, values and follow a trend that agrees well with theoretical predictions. The ordering temperatures, TN, as well as the polycrystalline averaged paramagnetic Curie-Weiss temperature, for the heavy rareearth members deviate from the de Gennes scaling, as the magnitude of both is the highest for Tb, which is sometimes seen for extremely axial systems. Except for SmCo2Ge2, metamagnetic transitions were observed at 1.8 K for all members that ordered antiferromagnetically. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

SO DATA MINING AND KNOWLEDGE DISCOVERY

DE Sequences; Anomaly detection; Data mining; Reference based analysis
AB Anomaly detection for symbolic sequence data is a highly important area of research and is relevant in many application domains. While several techniques have been proposed within different domains, understanding of their relative strengths and weaknesses is limited. The key factor for this is that the nature of sequence data varies significantly across domains, and hence while a technique might perform well in its original domain, its performance is not guaranteed in a different domain. In this paper, we aim at establishing this understanding for a wide variety of anomaly detection techniques for symbolic sequences. We present a comparative evaluation of a large number of anomaly detection techniques on a variety of publicly available as well as artificially generated data sets. Many of these are existing techniques while some are slight variants and/or adaptations of traditional anomaly detection techniques to sequence data. The analysis presented in this paper allows relative comparison of the different anomaly detection techniques and highlights their strengths and weaknesses. We extend the reference based analysis (RBA) framework, which was originally proposed to analyze multivariate categorical data, to analyze symbolic sequence data sets. We visualize the symbolic sequences using the characteristics provided by the RBA framework and use the visualization to understand various aspects of the sequence data. We then use the characterization done by RBA to understand the performance of the different techniques. Using the RBA framework, we propose two anomaly detection techniques for symbolic sequences, which show consistently superior performance over the existing techniques across the different data sets.

AB Viscosity data are reported for n-hexadecane (C16), n-octadecane (C18), and n-eicosane (C20) at pressures between (3 and 243) MPa and temperatures between (304 and 534) K. These extreme conditions are representative of those encountered in ultra-deep petroleum formations beneath the deepwaters of the Gulf of Mexico. The measurements are taken with a novel windowed Inconel rolling-ball viscometer designed by our team that is calibrated with n-decane. A comparison of the reported viscosity values with the available literature data that cover limited pressure and temperature ranges, shows that the mean absolute percentage deviation, delta, ranges between 1.1% and 4.8%. The reported data extend the database of viscosity to the high-temperature, high-pressure region where most gaps occur in the literature data for n-hexadecane and n-octadecane. To the best of our knowledge, the results for n-eicosane are the first reported viscosity values at pressures above 2 MPa over the entire temperature range. The viscosity results are modeled with the free volume theory model in conjunction with density values obtained using the Peng-Robinson equation of state (EoS) and the PC-SAFT EoS. The delta values obtained with this model range from 2.0% to 3.5%. The data are also correlated by a non-linear surface fit as a simultaneous function of temperature and pressure that yields delta values of 0.40%, 0.43%, and 0.38% for C16, C18, and C20, respectively.

AB The martensitic transformation of austenite as well as the reversion of martensite to austenite has been reported to significantly improve mechanical properties of steels. In the present work, three dimensional (3D) elastoplastic phase-field simulations are performed to study the kinetics of martensite reversion in stainless steels at different annealing temperatures. The input simulation data are acquired from different sources, such as CALPHAD, ab initio calculations, and experiments. The results show that the reversion occurs both at the lath boundaries as well as within the martensitic laths, which is in good agreement with the experimental observations. The reversion that occurs within the laths leads to splitting of a single martensite lath into two laths, separated by austenite. The results indicate that the reversed austenite retains a large extent of plasticity inherited from martensite.

AB Rare-earth doped yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) coatings with lower thermal conductivity have been fabricated via suspension plasma spray by dissolving rare-earth nitrates into YSZ powder-ethanol suspensions prior to plasma spraying. The effect of dopant concentration and dopant type on properties of the coatings was determined by comparing two coatings containing different concentrations of the same dopant pair (Nd2O3/Yb2O3), and three coatings having similar concentrations of different dopant pairs (Nd2O3/Yb2O3, Nd2O3/Gd2O3, and Gd2O3/Yb2O3). The porosity content of the coating was found to increase with increased total rare-earth dopant concentration but did not significantly change with dopant pairs. The cross-sectional morphology of every coating displayed a cauliflower-like structure. However, the most heavily doped coating exhibited a larger surface roughness and feathery features in the columnar structures. The thermal conductivity measurement showed that the thermal conductivity decreased with increased Nd2O3/Yb2O3 concentration. Among coatings containing different dopant pairs, the Gd2O3/Yb2O3 doped coating exhibited lowest conductivity. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB An understanding of the potentially serious long-term performance degradation effects that coating and/or other fabrication irregularities might have in mass produced proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) is essential to determine manufacturing tolerances of fuel cell components. An experimental setup and methodology is described that employs accelerated stress tests (ASTs) and IR thermography to accurately determine the location and severity of developing failure points in PEMFCs. The method entails a novel hardware that allows the spatial observation of a hydrogen crossover experiment within a fuel cell hardware. The application of the method is demonstrated by comparing the effects of an AST on pristine as well as defect-containing MEAs. The presented method is shown to be valuable for determining the areas within a fuel cell that are most stressed by aging processes. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB A compact model for SiC Power MOSFETs is presented. The model features a physical description of the channel current and internal capacitances and has been validated for dc, CV, and switching characteristics with measured data from a 1200-V, 20-A SiC power MOSFET in a temperature range of 25 degrees C to 225 degrees C. The peculiar variation of on-state resistance with temperature for SiC power MOSFETs has also been demonstrated through measurements and accounted for in the developed model. In order to improve the user experience with the model, a new datasheet driven parameter extraction strategy has been presented which requires only data available in device datasheets, to enable quick parameter extraction for off-the-shelf devices. Excellent agreement is shown between measurement and simulation using the presented model over the entire temperature range.
