Decoding Antenna Behavior in Metal—Organic Frameworks

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) define a solid-state platform for developing artificial photosystems. Efficient anisotropic exciton migrations in these frameworks entail “antenna behavior” that can power up the distal interior reaction centers (RC), driving charge separation between donor-acceptor pairs. Reminiscent of the natural light-harvesting complex, such processes can achieve high quantum yield by exploiting the vast interior surface of the porous crystallites. It is important to understand the optimum positioning of the RC site relative to the anisotropic exciton migration path within these frameworks. The efficiency of such antenna behavior is probed here through Stern–Volmer (SV) type analysis with a series of node-anchored redox quenchers, ferrocene-carboxylate, ferrocene acetate, and dinitrobenzoate. Decoding various intrinsic processes, this work constructs a revised SV formalism in solid assembly that hosts ultrafast anisotropic exciton migration to account for the intrinsic exciton hopping rate from the extrinsic electron transfer rate, and the dimension of effective quenching. In conclusion, this transformative understanding can be applied to other relevant solid-state assemblies.

Decoding the proton’s gluonic density with lattice QCD-informed machine learning

We present a first machine learning-based decoding of the gluonic structure of the proton from lattice QCD using a variational autoencoder inverse mapper (VAIM). Harnessing the power of generative AI, we predict the parton distribution function (PDF) of the gluon given information on the reduced pseudo-Ioffe-time distributions (RpITDs) as calculated from an ensemble with lattice spacing a ≈ 0.09 fm and a pion mass of M π ≈ 310 MeV. The resulting gluon PDF is consistent with phenomenological global fits within uncertainties, particularly in the intermediate-to-high-x region where lattice data are most constraining. A subsequent correlation analysis confirms that the VAIM learns a meaningful latent representation, highlighting the potential of generative AI to bridge lattice QCD and phenomenological extractions within a unified analysis framework.

PDF DECODER ANALYSIS CODE

SF-24-038"PDFdecoder", as a new application to explore parametrizations of parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton or other hadrons. The PDFs are fundamental quantities in particle physics which are necessary inputs to precise theoretical predictions for experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and other facilities. As such, understanding how the PDFs are parametrized and associated uncertainties is a pressing need. The specific problem PDFdecoder confronts is the need of having a tractable and interpretably machine-learning (ML) framework to parametrize the PDFs and their uncertainties so as to understand how a given preferred parametrization is obtained. This problem has not been significantly addressed in the current literature. While other groups have used ML-based approaches to parametrize PDFs in the form of feed-forward neural networks, the question of tractability has not been explored in a PDF context. Our solution makes significant progress in this problem by using an array of encoder-decoder (essentially, autoencoder) architectures with varying constraints to the intermediate latent spaces based on interpretable physics. As a consequence, the trained models can be used as generative networks to produce interpretable predictions for the PDFs in a way that can be refined and studied further.
