Detection efficiency of a water condensation particle counter using electrically neutral sulfuric acid and sulfuric acid-dimethylamine clusters

Recent advances in condensation particle counters (CPCs) have improved the detection of sub-3 nm particles, increasing the accuracy of new particle formation (NPF) measurements. However, the detection efficiencies for neutrally charged, atmospherically relevant, sub-1 nm particles, which are critical for the accurate derivation of atmospheric NPF rates, are currently unknown. Here, this study presents a method to measure the detection efficiency of sulfuric acid and clusters of sulfuric acid and dimethylamine using measured CPC concentrations and modeled cluster distributions at atmospherically relevant concentrations. This study finds that water-based CPCs can measure these clusters at detection efficiencies relevant to NPF studies.

Lyman-$α$ forest holography: 3D predictions from 1D measurements

Cosmological analyses of Lyman-$α$ forest clustering rely on either one-dimensional correlations along individual sightlines or three-dimensional correlations between different sightlines. Because these observables probe the matter distribution on very different scales, they have traditionally been analyzed independently. In this work, we bridge this gap using ForestFlow, an emulator trained on a suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations that provides a unified description of Lyman-$α$ forest clustering from linear to nonlinear scales. This framework enables us to determine the range of three-dimensional clustering models compatible with the DESI one-dimensional flux power spectrum ($P_{\rm 1D}$). The resulting predictions successfully reproduce the large-scale clustering measured by the DESI BAO analysis and provide physically motivated priors on nonlinear clustering that are used in a companion paper presenting the full-shape analysis of the DESI DR2 Lyman-$α$ forest. We validate our methodology using the large-volume, high-resolution hydrodynamical simulation ACCEL-2, demonstrating excellent agreement across the full range of scales considered. Finally, we combine constraints from the $P_{\rm 1D}$ and BAO analyses on the parameter combinations $b_δσ_8$ and $b_ηf σ_8$, finding that the two probes provide comparable constraining power while exhibiting complementary parameter degeneracies. Our results establish a direct connection between one- and three-dimensional Lyman-$α$ forest measurements through ForestFlow, an approach we term Lyman-$α$ holography by analogy with the reconstruction of higher-dimensional structure from lower-dimensional information.

Liquid Phase Modeling in Porous Media: Adsorption of Methanol and Ethanol in H-MFI in Condensed Water

Zeolites are used in the chemical and separation industries for their exceptional selectivity, adsorption capacity, regenerability, and stability in gas and liquid phase processing. Here, we developed an explicit solvation method for predicting solvent/condensed phase effects on adsorption free energies in microporous media such as zeolites based on the hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical free energy perturbation (QM/MM-FEP) technique. Our explicit solvation method for zeolite systems, called eSZS, aims to capture site-specific interactions during the adsorption process at the Brønsted acid sites of H-MFI zeolite while still considering the diverse configuration space of the solvent molecules. This strategy is ideal for chemical reactions or adsorbates that interact with the microporous medium in few distinct adsorbate/transition state configurations, i.e., the harmonic or similar approximations are acceptable for the adsorbate/transition state while such approximations break down for the solvent molecules that require extensive configuration space sampling. In this way, our approach effectively overcomes the limitations of implicit solvation models and classical force field methods for describing solvation effects on chemical reactions within porous materials such as zeolites. Specifically, in this study, we investigated various aspects of our hybrid QM/MM approach, including QM cluster size dependencies in a periodic electrostatically embedded cluster model (PEECM), rules for link atoms at the QM/MM boundary, and functional and basis set considerations for converged and reasonably accurate gas and aqueous phase methanol and ethanol adsorption free energy predictions in H-MFI. For gas phase adsorption of methanol and ethanol in H-MFI at a Brønsted acid site in T12 position, we compute adsorption free energies at 298 K of −0.61 and −0.75 eV, respectively, using a PEECM containing 50 Si and 1 Al atom with ωB97x-D/def2-TZVP level of theory. For solvent effect calculations, we sample the aqueous phase using grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations to (1) obtain a mean field of electrostatic interactions in the reaction system and (2) perform a rigorous free energy perturbation calculation. Similar to the experimentally and computationally observed endergonic solvation effects observed for hydrocarbon adsorption on metal surfaces, we also observe that a condensed aqueous environment destabilizes methanol and ethanol at these acid sites in H-MFI at 298 K. Specifically, the computed solvation free energies of adsorption (ΔΔG solv ) for methanol and ethanol are +0.44 and +0.54 eV, respectively. From this study, it is evident that adsorbates (methanol and ethanol) are competing with water for adsorption space inside the H-MFI zeolite, leading to an endergonic solvation effect. Here, we expect that the endergonic, aqueous solvent effect during adsorption in microporous zeolites is highly tunable by changing the pore size and hydrophobicity of the microporous material as this will affect the water density inside the pore structure.

Benchmarking soil moisture and its relationship to ecohydrologic variables in Earth System Models

Soil moisture (SM) is a key regulator of ecosystem biogeophysics, influencing plant water relations and land-atmosphere energy exchanges. We evaluate the representation of SM in 16 Earth System Models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) using the International Land Model Benchmarking (ILAMB) framework, focusing on surface (0–5, 0–10 cm) and rootzone (0–100 cm) depths, as well as key ecohydrological variables like gross primary productivity (GPP), leaf area index (LAI), and evapotranspiration (ET), and their coupling. Models are benchmarked against multiple observational and assimilated datasets to assess both state variables and cross-variable relationships. Surface SM is generally well represented (r > 0.87), while rootzone SM variability is systematically overestimated (normalized standard deviation > 1). ET shows strong agreement with observations (r > 0.9), whereas GPP and LAI exhibit larger inter-model spread. Skill in individual variables does not guarantee realistic SM–ecohydrology coupling, which varies strongly across models and depends on the reference dataset. Köppen-based regional analyses reveal strong regime dependence, with several models performing well in Tropical and Temperate regions but degrading in Continental (high-latitude) zones. Across both global and regional benchmarks, models cluster by land surface framework, indicating that structural choices in soil hydrology and soil–plant coupling exert a first-order control on performance. These results provide process-relevant benchmarks and suggest that improving the representation of vertical soil structure, rooting depth distributions, and soil–plant hydraulic coupling will be central to advancing soil moisture realism in next-generation Earth system models.

SAXS Assistant: Automated SAXS analysis for structural discovery in biologics and polymeric nanoparticles

Small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) is a powerful technique for assessing macromolecular structure. High-throughput SAXS is limited by the time-consuming and, at times, subjective nature of SAXS data interpretation. Here, we present SAXS Assistant, a Python-based script that streamlines SAXS data analysis to extract features for machine learning (ML) and key structural parameters, including the Guinier radius of gyration (R g ), pair distance distribution function (PDDF)-derived R g , maximum particle dimension (D max ), and Kratky plots. The script builds upon BioXTAS RAW and validates reliability via Guinier/PDDF R g agreement, an important indicator of well-measured data sets. For assistance in D max estimation, a multilayer perceptron regressor was trained with 1940 data files from the Small Angle Scattering Biological Data Bank. The model achieved a test set performance R 2 = 0.90 and mean absolute error = 11.7 Å. Training exclusively with experimental data translates analyses from researchers, including experts in the field, to the ML model, which helps assess D max estimations from PDDF. Gaussian mixture model clustering was implemented to classify profiles into structural classes based on entries in the Small Angle Scattering Biological Data Bank. Users may therefore assess the similarity between experimental samples and known biomolecular shapes within the mapped repository entries. This probabilistic clustering aids in quantifying information from Kratky and generating shape-descriptive features. SAXS Assistant accelerates SAXS data analysis through enforced quality control, ML-ready outputs, and flags for low-confidence results. In addition to providing the ability to analyze large data sets at high throughput, this tool is versatile and may serve researchers in both biological and synthetic polymer research fields.

Low-Temperature Activation and Coupling of Methane on MgO Nanostructures Embedded in Cu 2 O/Cu(111)

Here, the efficient conversion of methane into valuable hydrocarbons such as ethane and ethylene at relatively low temperatures without deactivation issues is crucial for advancing sustainable energy solutions. Herein, AP-XPS and STM studies show that MgO nanostructures (0.2-0.5 nm wide, 0.4-0.6 Å high) embedded in a Cu 2 O/Cu(111) substrate activate methane at room temperature, mainly dissociating it into CH x (x = 2 or 3) and H adatoms, with minimal conversion to C adatoms. These MgO nanostructures in contact with Cu 2 O/Cu(111) exhibit unique reactivity, enabling C-C coupling into ethane and ethylene at 500 K, a significantly lower temperature than that required for bulk MgO catalysts (>700 K), with negligible carbon deposition and no deactivation. DFT calculations corroborate these experimental findings. The CH 4,gas → *CH 3 +*H reaction is a downhill process on MgO/Cu 2 O/Cu(111) surfaces. The activation of methane is facilitated by an electron transfer from copper to MgO and the existence of Mg and O atoms with a low coordination number in the oxide nanostructures. The formation of O-CH 3 and O-H bonds overcomes the energy necessary for the cleavage of a C-H bond in methane. DFT studies reveal that smaller Mg 2 O 2 model clusters provide stronger binding and lower activation barriers for C-H dissociation in CH 4 , while larger Mg 3 O 3 clusters promote C-C coupling due to weaker *CH 3 binding. All these results emphasize the importance of size when optimizing the catalytic performance of MgO nanostructures in the selective conversion of methane.

Variability of Eastern North Atlantic Summertime Marine Boundary Layer Clouds and Aerosols Across Different Synoptic Regimes Identified With Multiple Conditions

Abstract This study estimates the meteorological covariations of aerosol and marine boundary layer (MBL) cloud properties in the eastern North Atlantic (ENA) region, characterized by diverse synoptic conditions. Using a deep‐learning‐based clustering model with mid‐level and surface daily meteorological data, we identify seven distinct synoptic regimes during the summer from 2016 to 2021. Our analysis, incorporating reanalysis data and satellite retrievals, shows that surface aerosols and MBL clouds exhibit clear regime‐dependent characteristics, whereas lower tropospheric aerosols do not. This discrepancy likely arises from synoptic regimes determined by daily large‐scale conditions, which may overlook air mass histories that predominantly dictate lower tropospheric aerosol conditions. Focusing on three regimes dominated by northerly winds, we analyze the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM) ENA observations on Graciosa Island in the Azores. In the subtropical anticyclone regime, fewer cumulus clouds and more single‐layer stratocumulus clouds with light drizzle are observed, along with the highest cloud droplet number concentration (Nd), surface cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and surface aerosol levels. The post‐trough regime features more broken or multi‐layer stratocumulus clouds with slightly higher surface rain rate, and lower Nd and surface CCN levels. The weak trough regime is characterized by the deepest MBL clouds, primarily cumulus and broken stratocumulus clouds, with the strongest surface rain rate and the lowest Nd, surface CCN and surface aerosol levels, indicating strong wet scavenging. These findings highlight the importance of considering the covariation of cloud and aerosol properties driven by large‐scale regimes when assessing aerosol indirect effects using observations.

Unconventional low temperature decomposition of a saturated hydrocarbon over atomically-dispersed titanium-aluminum-boron catalyst

Sonochemically-synthesized atomically-dispersed titanium-aluminum-boron nanopowder (TiAlB NP) exhibits a remarkable low-temperature catalytic activation of aliphatic C-H bonds at 750 K followed by C-C bond activation thus emerging as a potent low-cost alternative to expensive platinum group metals. Here, the model saturated hydrocarbon, exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (C10H16), undergoes catalytic decomposition on TiAlB NPs in a chemical microreactor to produce 1,3-cyclopentadiene (c-C5H6), cyclopentene (c-C5H8), and molecular hydrogen (H2) as detected in situ via isomer-selective, single-photon ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Extensive electronic structure theory calculations on model clusters of the catalyst decode a unique synergy among the atomic constituents of the catalyst and chemical bonding in this stepwise, retro Diels Alder reaction: Ti, although insensitive to C-H activation in its metallic state, initiates the catalysis via chemisorption of the hydrocarbon, adjacent B centers readily abstract hydrogen atoms and store them during the catalytic cycle, while Al stabilizes the catalyst structure yet providing space for critical docking sites for the departing hydrocarbons.

Chemical information from XPS: Theory and experiment for Ni(OH) 2

For this work, the features and the electronic character of the states for the Ni 2p x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) of Ni(OH) 2 were analyzed. This detailed analysis is based on ab initio molecular orbital wavefunctions for a cluster model of Ni(OH) 2 . The theory is validated by comparison with experiment. Then, advanced methods are used to explain and contrast the properties of different groups of ionic states. An important conclusion is that in most cases, the ionic states cannot be described with a single configuration or determinant. Despite this essential many-body character of the XPS, we demonstrate that it is possible to understand the origin of the main and satellite XPS features in terms of their orbital character.

The DESI DR1 Peculiar Velocity Survey: Mock Catalog

We describe the production of the official set of mock catalogs for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument Peculiar Velocity Survey (DESI-PV) Data Release 1 (DR1). Our mock catalogs reproduce the Bright Galaxy Survey number density and clustering at low redshift $(z<0.1)$ and the DESI PV samples of Fundamental plane and Tully-Fisher distances, from which we derive peculiar velocities. We carefully match mock and data properties and we mimic measurements of distance indicators and peculiar velocities, which follow the same statistical properties as real data. Mock samples of type-Ia supernovae also complement the other two distance indicators. Our 675 available mock realizations were used consistently by our three different methodologies described in our companion papers that measure the growth rate of structure $fσ_8$ with DESI PV DR1. Those mocks allow us to perform precise tests of clustering models and uncertainty estimation to an unprecedented level of accuracy, and compute correlations between methodologies. The consensus value for the DESI DR1 PV growth rate measurement is $fσ_8 = 0.450 \pm 0.055$. This sample of mock catalogs represents the largest and most realistic set for cosmological measurements with peculiar velocities to date.

Source Analysis of Ozone Pollution in Liaoyuan City’s Atmosphere Based on Machine Learning Models and HYSPLIT Clustering Method

Firstly, this study investigates the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of the ozone (O 3 ) pollution in Liaoyuan City using monitoring data from 2015 to 2024. Then, three machine learning models (ML)—random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), and artificial neural network (ANN)—are employed to quantify the influence of meteorological and non-meteorological factors on O 3 concentrations. Finally, the HYSPLIT clustering method and CMAQ model are utilized to analyze inter-regional transport characteristics, identifying the causes of O 3 pollution. The results indicate that O 3 pollution in Liaoyuan exhibits a distinct seasonal pattern, with the highest concentrations found in spring and summer, peaking in the afternoon. Among the three ML models, the random forest model demonstrates the best predictive performance (R 2 = 0.9043). Feature importance identifies NO 2 as the primary driving factor, followed by meteorological conditions in the second quarter and land surface characteristics. Furthermore, regional transport significantly contributes to O 3 pollution, with approximately 80% of air mass trajectories in heavily polluted episodes originating from adjacent industrial areas and the sea. The combined effects of transboundary precursors and O 3 transport with local emissions and meteorological conditions further increase the O 3 pollution level. This study highlights the need to strengthen coordinated NO X and VOCs emission reductions and enhance regional joint prevention and control strategies in China.

A new constraint on galaxy–halo connections of [O ii ] emitters via HOD modelling with angular clustering and luminosity functions from the Subaru HSC survey

ABSTRACT Establishing a robust connection model between emission-line galaxies (ELGs) and their host dark haloes is of paramount importance in anticipation of upcoming redshift surveys. We propose a novel halo occupation distribution (HOD) framework that incorporates galaxy luminosity, a key observable reflecting ELG star-formation activity, into the galaxy occupation model. This innovation enables prediction of galaxy luminosity functions (LFs) and facilitates joint analyses using both angular correlation functions (ACFs) and LFs. Using physical information from luminosity, our model provides more robust constraints on the ELG–halo connection compared to methods relying solely on ACF and number density constraints. Our model was applied to $\rm [O\, {\small II}]$-emitting galaxies observed at two redshift slices at $z=1.193$ and 1.471 from the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam PDR2. Our model effectively reproduces observed ACFs and LFs observed in both redshift slices. Compared to the established Geach et al. HOD model, our approach offers a more nuanced depiction of ELG occupation across halo mass ranges, suggesting a more realistic representation of ELG environments. Our findings suggest that ELGs at $z\sim 1.4$ may evolve into Milky-Way-like galaxies, as their inferred halo masses evolve accordingly based on the extended Press–Schechter formalism, highlighting their role as potential building blocks in galaxy formation scenarios. By incorporating the LF as a constraint linking galaxy luminosity to halo properties, our HOD model provides a more precise understanding of ELG-host halo relationships. Furthermore, this approach facilitates the generation of high-quality ELG mock catalogues for future surveys. As the LF is a fundamental observable, our framework is potentially applicable to diverse galaxy populations, offering a versatile tool for analysing data from next-generation galaxy surveys.

A Generative Model for Realistic Galaxy Cluster X-Ray Morphologies

Abstract The X-ray morphologies of clusters of galaxies display significant variations, reflecting their dynamical histories and the nonlinear dependence of X-ray emissivity on the density of the intracluster gas. Qualitative and quantitative assessments of X-ray morphology have long been considered a proxy for determining whether clusters are dynamically active or “relaxed.” Conversely, the use of circularly or elliptically symmetric models for cluster emission can be complicated by the variety of complex features realized in nature, spanning scales from megaparsecs down to the resolution limit of current X-ray observatories. In this work, we use mock X-ray images from simulated clusters from The Three Hundred project to define a basis set of cluster image features. We take advantage of the clusters’ approximate self-similarity to minimize the differences between images before encoding the remaining diversity through a distribution of high-order polynomial coefficients. Principal component analysis then provides an orthogonal basis for this distribution, corresponding to natural perturbations from an average model. This representation allows novel, realistically complex X-ray cluster images to be easily generated, and we provide code to do so. The approach provides a simple way to generate training data for cluster image analysis algorithms and could be straightforwardly adapted to generate clusters displaying specific types of features or selected by physical characteristics available in the original simulations.

Ab-initio informed cluster dynamics simulation of self- and Xe diffusivity in uranium mononitride under irradiation

Uranium mononitride (UN) is one of the ceramic nuclear fuel alternatives to oxide fuels considered for light water reactor and advanced reactor designs, as it presents significant advantages such as high uranium density (better economics) and high thermal conductivity and melting point (increased safety). Self- and fission gas diffusivities need to be better understood, given that they influence key fuel performance phenomena like swelling and fission gas release. Recently, radiation enhanced diffusivity was investigated in UN by means of cluster dynamics simulations relying on empirical potential-based parameterizations, the reliability of which highly depends on the interatomic potential accuracy. Here, in this work, we refine this approach by determining, using ab-initio calculations, the properties of defect clusters containing vacancies, self-interstitials and Xe impurities. We also consider larger clusters than previous studies. The obtained dataset (formation enthalpies, entropies, and migration barriers) is used to parameterize a cluster dynamics model of mobile clusters, and to calculate the defect cluster concentrations under irradiation. This gives us access to the radiation enhanced self- and fission gas diffusivities. Although the resulting diffusivities are close to the values reported in the literature, we find important qualitative differences in the diffusion mechanisms. Capturing the correct mechanisms is crucial to properly describe the chemistry and fission rate dependence of the model.

Impact of amorphous pockets on displacement damage evolution in silicon

Silicon has long been known to exhibit amorphization in response to heavy particle bombardment. For doses below the total amorphization threshold, partial amorphization is observed in the form of scattered amorphous pockets. While extensive research has gone into modeling the formation and evolution of amorphous pockets in response to irradiation, no studies yet investigate their impact on the evolution of other damage such as interstitial supersaturation and clustering. In this study, we survey the impact of amorphous pockets on defect evolution in silicon when treated as static sinks. MD is first used to show that amorphous pockets provide energetically favorable sites for point defects relative to the crystalline bulk, supporting the hypothesis that they act as sinks. A 0-D cluster dynamics model is then constructed, taking an interstitial clustering model from the literature and including amorphous pockets as a sink species. We conduct our survey for temperatures between 30 and 400 °C and sink strengths between 1 to 6 x 10 10 cm −2 . Both implantation- and radiation-induced damage states are investigated using interstitial and vacancy concentrations as initial condition variables. We find that, due to the differing migration rates of the interstitial and the vacancy, amorphous pockets have a non-monotonic impact on the final damage state depending on the effective sink strength of the amorphous pockets, resulting in increased damage formation in regimes of intermediate amorphization. In conclusion, this result emphasizes the important role of amorphous pockets in governing the evolution of damage in partially amorphized crystalline materials.

Dark Energy Survey: Modeling strategy for multiprobe cluster cosmology and validation for the Full Six-year Dataset

We introduce an updated To&Krause2021 model for joint analyses of cluster abundances and large-scale two-point correlations of weak lensing and galaxy and cluster clustering (termed CL+3x2pt analysis) and validate that this model meets the systematic accuracy requirements of analyses with the statistical precision of the final Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 6 (Y6) dataset. The validation program consists of two distinct approaches, (1) identification of modeling and parameterization choices and impact studies using simulated analyses with each possible model misspecification (2) end-to-end validation using mock catalogs from customized Cardinal simulations that incorporate realistic galaxy populations and DES-Y6-specific galaxy and cluster selection and photometric redshift modeling, which are the key observational systematics. In combination, these validation tests indicate that the model presented here meets the accuracy requirements of DES-Y6 for CL+3x2pt based on a large list of tests for known systematics. In addition, we also validate that the model is sufficient for several other data combinations: the CL+GC subset of this data vector (excluding galaxy--galaxy lensing and cosmic shear two-point statistics) and the CL+3x2pt+BAO+SN (combination of CL+3x2pt with the previously published Y6 DES baryonic acoustic oscillation and Y5 supernovae data).
