The transition from diffuse to dense clouds

Studies of the relatively diffuse interstellar clouds where variations in the properties of the diffuse interstellar bands occur are reviewed, and the possible relationship between dust properties, as indicated by UV extinction, and other cloud characteristics is explored, with emphasis placed on relatively dense diffuse clouds. Some results from the literature on transitional or intermediate clouds are reviewed, and some recent findings are presented on one particular cloud, in front of the star BD+31 deg 643, in the small open cluster IC348, which is part of the Perseus II complex of dark clouds and OB associations. Tentative speculations about the possible status of the transitional clouds are discussed.

Evolution of Local Microstructures: Spatial Instabilities of Coarsening Clusters

This work examines the diffusional growth of discrete phase particles dispersed within a matrix. Engineering materials are microstructurally heterogeneous, and the details of the microstructure determine how well that material performs in a given application. Critical to the development of designing multiphase microstructures with long-term stability is the process of Ostwald ripening. Ripening, or phase coarsening, is a diffusion-limited process which arises in polydisperse multiphase materials. Growth and dissolution occur because fluxes of solute, driven by chemical potential gradients at the interfaces of the dispersed phase material, depend on particle size. The kinetics of these processes are "competitive," dictating that larger particles grow at the expense of smaller ones, overall leading to an increase of the average particle size. The classical treatment of phase coarsening was done by Todes, Lifshitz, and Slyozov, (TLS) in the limit of zero volume fraction, V(sub v), of the dispersed phase. Since the publication of TLS theory there have been numerous investigations, many of which sought to describe the kinetic scaling behavior over a 0 range of volume fractions. Some studies in the literature report that the relative increase in coarsening rate at low (but not zero) volume fractions compared to that predicted by TLS is proportional to v(sub v)(exp 1/2), whereas others suggcest V(sub v)(exp 1/3). This issue has been resolved recently by simulation studies at low volume fractions in three dimensions by members of the Rensselaer/MSFC team. Our studies of ripening behavior using large-scale numerical simulations suggest that although there are different circumstances which can lead to either scaling law, the most important length scale at low volume fractions is the diffusional analog of the Debye screening length. The numerical simulations we employed exploit the use of a recently developed "snapshot" technique, and identifies the nature of the coarsening dynamics at various volume fractions. Preliminary results of numerical and experimental investigations, focused on the growth of finite particle clusters, provide important insight into the nature of the transition between the two scaling regimes. The companion microgravity experiment centers on the growth within finite particle clusters, and follows the temporal dynamics driving microstructural evolution, using holography.

The ultraviolet interstellar extinction curve in the Pleiades

The wavelength dependence of ultraviolet extinction in the Pleiades dust clouds has been determined from IUE observations of HD 23512, the brightest heavily reddened member of the Pleiades cluster. There is evidence for an anomalously weak absorption bump at 2200 A, followed by an extinction rise in the far ultraviolet with an essentially normal slope. A relatively weak absorption band at 2200 A and a weak diffuse absorption band at 4430 A seem to be common characteristics of dust present in dense clouds. Evidence is presented which suggests that the extinction characteristics found for HD 23512 are typical for a class of extinction curves observed in several cases in the Galaxy and in the LMC.

A bound on X-ray emission from the intrasupercluster medium

The Bahcall-Soneira (1984) complete sample of superclusters was searched for X-ray emission in the HEAO 1 A-2 data base. No statistically significant emission from diffuse intrasupercluster gas was detected; a 3-sigma upper limit to the mean individual flux is 10 to the -11th ergs/sq cm per s. Implications of this bound to measurements of the Zeldovich-Sunyaev (1969) effect toward clusters within a supercluster and to the supercluster contribution to the cosmic X-ray background are discussed.

Effect of Zn Addition on Phase Evolution in AlCrFeCoNiZn High–Entropy Alloy

The addition of Zn to AlCrFeCoNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) poses intriguing questions as to how it would affect phase evolution. Herein, the phase evolution in AlCrFeCoNiZn is studied using a combination of experimental techniques (X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry) and computational (density-functional theory [DFT], calculation of phase diagrams, and machine-learning) methods. Mechanically alloyed and spark-plasma-sintered AlCrFeCoNiZn assumes a metastable single-phase, body-centered-cubic (BCC) structure that undergoes diffusion-controlled phase separation upon subsequent heat treatment to form separate (Al, Cr)-rich, (Fe, Co)-rich, and (Zn, Ni)-rich phases. The formation of (Al, Cr)-rich phase, not reported previously in AlCrFeCoNi-based HEAs, is attributed to strong clustering tendency of Cr–Zn and Cr–Ni pairs, combined with the strong ordering of Zn–Ni pair, driving out Cr that in turn combines with Al to form a (Al, Cr)-rich phase. In the DFT results, the formation of thermodynamically stable L1 2 phase is shown wherein Cr–Fe–Zn [Al–Ni-Co] preferably occupy1a (000) [3c (0 ½ ½)] positions. Furthermore, the sluggish diffusional transformation to L1 2 phase from BCC precursors is attributed to the small stacking-fault energy of AlCrFeCoNiZn. The equilibrated HEA exhibits a high microhardness of 8.24 GPa with an elastic modulus of 184 GPa.

Instability of steady-state mixed-state symmetry-protected topological order to strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking

Recent experimental progress in controlling open quantum systems enables the pursuit of mixed-state nonequilibrium quantum phases. We investigate whether open quantum systems hosting mixed-state symmetry-protected topological states as steady states retain this property under symmetric perturbations. Focusing on the decohered cluster state – a mixed-state symmetry-protected topological state protected by a combined strong and weak symmetry – we construct a parent Lindbladian that hosts it as a steady state. This Lindbladian can be mapped onto exactly solvable reaction-diffusion dynamics, even in the presence of certain perturbations, allowing us to solve the parent Lindbladian in detail and reveal previously-unknown steady states. Using both analytical and numerical methods, we find that typical symmetric perturbations cause strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking at arbitrarily small perturbations, destabilize the steady-state mixed-state symmetry-protected topological order. However, when perturbations introduce only weak symmetry defects, the steady-state mixed-state symmetry-protected topological order remains stable. Additionally, we construct a quantum channel which replicates the essential physics of the Lindbladian and can be efficiently simulated using only Clifford gates, Pauli measurements, and feedback.

Hot HB Stars in Globular Clusters: Physical Parameters and Consequences for Theory: The Second Parameter Pair M 3 and M 13 - VI

We present the results of spectroscopic analyses of hot horizontal branch (HB) stars in M 13 and M 3, which form a famous "second parameter" pair. F rom the spectra and Stromgren photometry we derived - for the first time in M 13 - atmospheric parameters (effective temperature and surface gravity). For stars with Stromgren temperatures between 10,000 and 12,000 K we found excellent agreement between the atmospheric parameters derived from Stromgren photometry and those derived from Balmer line profile fits. However, for cooler stars there is a disagreement in the parameters derived by the two methods, for which we have no satisfactory explanation. Stars hotter than 12,000 K show evidence for helium depletion and iron enrichment, both in M 3 and M 13. Accounting for the iron enrichment substantially improves the agreement with canonical evolutionary models, although the derived gravities and masses are still somewhat too low. This remaining discrepancy may be an indication that scaled-solar metal-rich model atmospheres do not adequately represent the highly non-solar abundance ratios found in blue HB stars affected by diffusion. We discuss the effects of an enhancement in the envelope helium abundance on the atmospheric parameters of the blue HB stars, as might be caused by deep mixing on the red giant branch or primordial pollution from an earlier generation of intermediate mass asymptotic giant branch stars. Key words. Stars: atmospheres - Stars: evolution - Stars: horizontal branch - Globular clusters: individual: M 3 - Globular clusters: individual: M 13

Understanding the Influence of Chain Architecture on the Transport Quantities of Polymer Electrolytes with Covalently Bonded Anions

Here, we use a combination of experiments and coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to elucidate the structure–property relationships in polymer electrolytes obtained by the copolymerization of poly(vinyl ethylene carbonate─lithium styrene bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide) or p(VEC-LiSTFSI). Experiments show that the conductivity reduces with increasing anion (i.e., STFSI) fraction on the chain, and the cation transference number (t + ) is found to be dependent on the anion fraction. Furthermore, a significant fraction of unpolymerized VEC monomers are observed. Since it is inherently difficult to experimentally control the chain architecture and the amount of unpolymerized VEC in these systems, we perform coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations on model polymer systems with different chain architectures to mimic the plausible experimental systems. Specifically, we look at the differences in transference numbers arising from (i) a random copolymer of VEC and STFSI monomers; (ii) a blend of VEC-STFSI copolymer with VEC monomers; and (iii) a ternary blend of the VEC homopolymer, STFSI homopolymers, and VEC monomers. The ternary blend model demonstrates the closest resemblance with the experimental transference numbers and diffusivities. The lithium diffusivity obtained from the coarse-grained models with VEC monomers (plasticizers) is about 1.5 times that of the model without VEC monomers, showing that the plasticizing effect of VEC monomers is modest. We rationalize the experimental observations based on aggregate and cluster analyses obtained from molecular simulations. This work reveals that polymer electrolyte chain architecture and plasticizers can critically influence the transport properties, and these parameters should be considered when designing single ion conducting polymeric electrolytes.

Ostwald ripening theory

The Ostwald-ripening theory is deduced and discussed starting from the fundamental principles such as Ising model concept, Mayer cluster expansion, Langer condensation point theory, Ginzburg-Landau free energy, Stillinger cutoff-pair potential, LSW-theory and MLSW-theory. Mathematical intricacies are reduced to an understanding version. Comparison of selected works, from 1949 to 1984, on solution of diffusion equation with and without sink/sources term(s) is presented. Kahlweit's 1980 work and Marqusee-Ross' 1954 work are more emphasized. Odijk and Lekkerkerker's 1985 work on rodlike macromolecules is introduced in order to simulate interested investigators.

Evolution of macromolecular dust: Far-ultraviolet spectral dust extinction and gas absorption of stellar light as measured with the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope

From far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectra of B stars taken with the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (HUT) and Voyager space observations, we determine the far-ultraviolet extinction by Galactic dust and hydrogen absorption in the local spiral-arm clouds towards HD 25443 (B0.5 III), HD 37903 (B1.5 V), and HD 200775 (B3 Ve). We find that the (n (H)) = 1.3 cu cm and number fraction (f = 0.31) of H atoms in molecular hydrogen relative to the total hydrogen indicates a mostly diffuse medium toward HD 25443. We also determine f = 0.56 for the gas in the photodissociation region (PDR) in front of HD 37903 and f approximately equals 0.36 for the HD 200775 PDR. The inferred ratios of N(H2)/I(CO) = 2.4 to 2.8 x 10(exp 20)/K(km/s)/sq cm for cool gas in dark clouds agree with previous canonical estimates of N(H2)/I(CO) = 2 to 3 x 10(exp 20)/K(km/s)/sq cm and support the use of the ratio for determining masses of molecular clouds. We find that the shape and strength of the HD 25443 FUV extinction is the same as a diffuse-medium mean extinction (R(sub nu) = 2.95) extrapolated from mid-UV wavelengths (normal). The HD 37903 FUV extinction through a bright H2 photodissociation region is higher than a mean FUV extinction(R(sub nu) = 4.11), as is the HD 200775 extinction. Another star from the literature rho Oph, probes the dense medium and exhibits an FUV extinction of normal mean strength (R(sub nu) = 4.55) but steeper shape. The normal FUV -extinction of HD 25443 implies that the small FUV-extinction dust in the diffuse medium forms in p art from larger grains as the grains shatter under shocks. The normal strength of the rho Oph FUV-extinction indicates that the minute dust condenses onto or coagulates into larger grains in the dense medium. The high extinction deviation of the HD 37903 PDR (and HD 200775 PDR) shows that FUV radiation from hot stars with T(sub eff) approximately equals 20,000 to 23,000 K in PDRs can evaporate some of the FUV-extinction dust from grain surfaces. In contrast, previously measured extinctions in Galactic H(+) (H II) regions shows that FUV radiation at T(sub eff) greater than 25,000 K can destroy some of the dust in H(+) regions. Thus, some of the FUV-extinction dust is highly volatile. We find that the dust carrier of the variable FUV-extinction is correlated (r = 0.99) with the mid-IR (12 micrometers) radiation from hydrocarbon dust. The volatile FUV-extinction component could thus be due to minute hydrocarbon dust particles or macromolecules, probably PAHs, which are known to condense onto larger grains in the dense medium. Larger grains compsed of PAHs clustered into a solid could thus produce the steep FUV extinction of the rho Oph dense medium. After exposure to FUV photons wihtin approximately 1 pc of HD 37903, PAHs with about 30 carbon atoms would evaporate off the larger grains, increasing gaseous PAH abundance by approximately 14%. Also, after receiving shocks in the diffuse medium toward HD 25443, the larger hydrocarbon grains would shatter into PAH molecules. In summary, as the Galactic medium cycles betwee n the diffuse and dense medium, hydrocarbon dust cycles into and out of larger grains under the influence of shocks, radiation, and condensation.

Evolution of Local Microstructures: Spatial Instabilities of Coarsening Clusters

This work examines the diffusional growth of discrete phase particles dispersed within a matrix. Engineering materials are often microstructurally heterogeneous, and the details of the microstructure determine how well that material performs in a given application. Critical to the development of designing multiphase microstructures with long-term stability is the process of Ostwald ripening. Ripening, or phase coarsening, is diffusion-limited and arises in polydisperse multiphase materials. Growth and dissolution occur because fluxes of solute, driven by chemical potential gradients at the interfaces of the dispersed phase material, depend on particle size. Competitive kinetics of these processes dictates that larger particles grow at the expense of smaller ones, overall leading to an increase of the average particle size. The classical treatment of phase coarsening was done by Todes, Lifshitz, and Slyozov, (TLS) in the limit of zero volume fraction, V(sub V)=0 of the dispersed phase. Since the publication of TLS theory, there have been numerous investigations, many of which sought to describe the kinetic scaling behavior over a range of volume fractions. Some studies in the literature report that the relative increase in coarsening rate at low (but not zero) volume fractions compared to that predicted by TLS is proportional to V(exp 1/2)(sub v) whereas others suggest V(exp 1/3)(sub v).This issue has been addressed recently by simulation studies at low volume fractions in three dimensions by members of the Rensselaer/MSFC team.

Unsupervised learning-enabled pulsed infrared thermographic microscopy of subsurface defects in stainless steel

Metallic structures produced with laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing method (AM) frequently contain microscopic porosity defects, with typical approximate size distribution from one to 100 microns. Presence of such defects could lead to premature failure of the structure. In principle, structural integrity assessment of LPBF metals can be accomplished with nondestructive evaluation (NDE). Pulsed infrared thermography (PIT) is a non-contact, one-sided NDE method that allows for imaging of internal defects in arbitrary size and shape metallic structures using heat transfer. PIT imaging is performed using compact instrumentation consisting of a flash lamp for deposition of a heat pulse, and a fast frame infrared (IR) camera for measuring surface temperature transients. However, limitations of imaging resolution with PIT include blurring due to heat diffusion, sensitivity limit of the IR camera. We demonstrate enhancement of PIT imaging capability with unsupervised learning (UL), which enables PIT microscopy of subsurface defects in high strength corrosion resistant stainless steel 316 alloy. PIT images were processed with UL spatial–temporal separation-based clustering segmentation (STSCS) algorithm, refined by morphology image processing methods to enhance visibility of defects. The STSCS algorithm starts with wavelet decomposition to spatially de-noise thermograms, followed by UL principal component analysis (PCA), fine-tuning optimization, and neural learning-based independent component analysis (ICA) algorithms to temporally compress de-noised thermograms. The compressed thermograms were further processed with UL-based graph thresholding K-means clustering algorithm for defects segmentation. The STSCS algorithm also includes online learning feature for efficient re-training of the model with new data. For this study, metallic specimens with calibrated microscopic flat bottom hole defects, with diameters in the range from 203 to 76 µm, were produced using electro discharge machining (EDM) drilling. While the raw thermograms do not show any material defects, using STSCS algorithm to process PIT images reveals defects as small as 101 µm in diameter. To the best of our knowledge, this is the smallest reported size of a sub-surface defect in a metal imaged with PIT, which demonstrates the PIT capability of detecting defects in the size range relevant to quality control requirements of LPBF-printed high-strength metals.

Templates for Risk Informed Assurance with Curvature Embeddings (TRACE)

We investigate recovery of geometric structure from networks embedded in manifolds with spatially varying curvature, extending the constant-curvature framework of Lubold et al. (2023). Our work supports cascade risk assessment in critical infrastructure through the Templates for Risk-informed Assurance with Curvature Embeddings (TRACE) framework. Simulations on a bi-modal Gaussian surface show that constant-curvature methods yield weighted averages shaped by clique patterns, while hierarchical clustering identifies distinct regimes. Localized estimation, however, reveals boundary contamination in transitional regions. To address heterogeneity, we develop distance metrics for graphs with edge and node features, proving their metric validity, and validate them via deterministic graph generation from canonical tilings. We further propose a diffusion-based anomaly detection approach that treats networks as glued manifolds, using curvature discontinuities to detect structural anomalies. Employing the carré-du-champ operator and scalar curvature, we achieve robust anomaly discrimination, demonstrated on the Singapore Water Treatment (SWaT) dataset with joint network-traffic and sensor features. Integration with TRACE reveals how curvature shapes cascade dynamics: positive curvature impedes, while negative curvature accelerates propagation. This geometric perspective provides interpretable risk metrics and visualization tools for critical infrastructure managers. While full validation remains ongoing, our contributions establish a rigorous foundation for geometric analysis of network resilience and cascade vulnerability.

Industrial ion source technology

An analytical model was developed to describe the development of a coned surface texture with ion bombardment and simultaneous deposition of an impurity. A mathematical model of sputter deposition rate from a beveled target was developed in conjuction with the texturing models to provide an important input to that model. The establishment of a general procedure that will allow the treatment of manay different sputtering configurations is outlined. Calculation of cross sections for energetic binary collisions was extened to Ar, Kr.. and Xe with total cross sections for viscosity and diffusion calculated for the interaction energy range from leV to 1000eV. Physical sputtering and reactive ion etching experiments provided experimental data on the operating limits of a broad beam ion source using CF4 as a working gas to produce reactive species in a sputtering beam. Magnetic clustering effects are observed when Al is seeded with Fe and sputtered with Ar(?) ions. Silicon was textured at a micron scale by using a substrate temperature of 600 C.

Plasma and Energetic Particle Behaviors During Asymmetric Magnetic Reconnection at the Magnetopause

The factors controlling asymmetric reconnection and the role of the cold plasma population in the reconnection process are two outstanding questions. We present a case study of multipoint Cluster observations demonstrating that the separatrix and flow boundary angles are greater on the magnetosheath than on the magnetospheric side of the magnetopause, probably due to the stronger density than magnetic field asymmetry at this boundary. The motion of cold plasmaspheric ions entering the reconnection region differs from that of warmer magnetosheath and magnetospheric ions. In contrast to the warmer ions, which are probably accelerated by reconnection in the diffusion region near the subsolar magnetopause, the colder ions are simply entrained by 𝐄×𝐁 drifts at high latitudes on the recently reconnected magnetic field lines. This indicates that plasmaspheric ions can sometimes play only a very limited role in asymmetric reconnection, in contrast to previous simulation studies. Three cold ion populations (probably H+, He+, and O+) appear in the energy spectrum, consistent with ion acceleration to a common velocity.

On the fragmentation of cosmic gas clouds. III - The initial stellar mass function

Radiation from the first opaque protostellar fragments to form in a nonhomologously collapsing molecular cloud can provide a significant heat source in regions where the matter remains relatively diffuse over the initial free-fall time scale. This energy input provides a negative feedback that gradually inhibits fragmentation as larger protostellar fragments form that are also more effective radiators. A highly simplified model is described that yields an expression for the initial mass function in stellar clusters. Dynamical dissipation, driven by the more massive protostars, tends to decouple the gas and grain temperatures and steepen the mass function. Fragmentation of less massive stars appears to proceed more efficiently when the heavy-element abundance is decreased, indicating the possibility of an inverse correlation between gradients in Z and M/L. Other possible observational tests of fragmentation are also suggested.

Ultraviolet spectroscopy of hot young stars with infrared excesses - NGC 2264-W46, W90, and W100

New ultraviolet data are combined with optical data to investigate the wavelength-dependent extinction of the stars W46, W90, and W100 in the young galactic cluster NGC 2264. The observations of W90 confirm the existence of anomalous (circumstellar) dust extinction with a ratio of total to selective extinction, R greater than 7. This extinction is most easily explained by a graphite-silicate mixture with larger mean sizes than are present in the diffuse interstellar medium. For W46 and W100, the grains are likely to be gray, but the possibility of nongray extinction cannot be excluded because of uncertainties arising from the very small ultraviolet optical depths of the circumstellar dust.

Anthropogenic extremely low volatility organics (ELVOCs) Govern the Growth of Molecular Clusters over the Southern Great Plains during the Springtime

New particle formation (NPF) and growth govern cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) concentrations in many regions. The mechanisms governing the nucleation of molecular clusters vary substantially in different regions of the atmosphere. Additionally, the growth of these clusters from ~2 to 20 nm sizes is often governed by the availability of extremely low volatility organic vapours (ELVOCs). While the pathways to ELVOC formation from the oxidation of biogenic monoterpenes with ozone is better understood, the chemical and mechanistic pathways for ELVOC formation from oxidation of anthropogenic organics are not well understood. We integrate measurements and three-dimensional regional model simulations with the Weather Research and Forecasting Model coupled to chemistry (WRF-Chem) to understand the processes governing new particle formation and growth and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation during the Holistic Interactions of Shallow Clouds, Aerosols and Land Ecosystems (HI-SCALE) field campaign at the Southern Great Plains (SGP) observatory in Oklahoma, and contrast it with a site within the Bankhead National Forest (BNF), Alabama in Southeast USA, where 5-year long measurements will begin in 2024. Simulations show that nucleation rates are at least an order of magnitude higher at SGP compared to BNF during the springtime days (April 28 and May 14, 2016), largely due to lower H2SO4 concentrations at BNF, which are needed for nucleation. In addition, the larger CS at BNF (compared to SGP) increase the loss of molecular clusters by coagulation to pre-existing particles. Among the 8 different nucleation mechanisms in WRF-Chem, we find that the amine+H2SO4 nucleation mechanism dominates at the SGP site, while the pure organic ion induced nucleation mechanism dominates over BNF. Through various WRF-Chem sensitivity simulations, we find that anthropogenic ELVOCs are critical for explaining the growth of newly formed particles and the resulting number size distribution observed near the surface at the SGP site during the daytime. In addition, we show that treating organic particles as semisolid, with strong diffusion-limited uptake of organic vapours, brings model predictions into closer agreement with the observed evolution of particle size distribution. Simulations also predict that anthropogenic SOA, formed by the oxidation of aromatic volatile organic compounds (VOCs), is the dominant organic aerosol component at SGP, while biogenic SOA dominates particle composition at the BNF site in Southeast USA on these days.
