The pp → W(→ lν) + γ process at next-to-next-to-leading order

We present details of the calculation of the pp → W(→ lν)γ process at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD, calculated using the jettiness slicing method. The calculation is based entirely on analytic amplitudes. Because of the radiation zero, the NLO QCD contribution from the gq channel is as important as the contribution from the Born $ q\overline{q} $ process, disrupting the normal counting of leading and sub-leading contributions. We also assess the importance of electroweak (EW) corrections, including the EW corrections to both the six-parton channel 0 →$ \overline{u} d\nu {e}^{+}\gamma g $ and the five-parton channel 0 →$ \overline{u} d\nu {e}^{+}\gamma $. Previous experimental results have been shown to agree with theoretical predictions, taking into account the large experimental errors. With the advent of run II data from the LHC, the statistical errors on the data will decrease, and will be competitive with the error on theoretical predictions for the first time. We present numerical results for $ \sqrt{s} $ = 7 and 13 TeV. Analytic results for the one-loop six-parton QCD amplitude and the tree-level seven-parton QCD amplitude are presented in appendices.

Dijet impact factor in DIS at next-to-leading order in the Color Glass Condensate

In this work, we compute the next-to-leading order impact factor for inclusive dijet production in deeply inelastic electron-nucleus scattering at small x Bj . Our computation, performed in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate effective field theory, includes all real and virtual contributions in the gluon shock wave background of all-twist lightlike Wilson line correlators. We demonstrate explicitly that the rapidity evolution of these correlators, to leading logarithmic accuracy, is described by the JIMWLK Hamiltonian. When combined with the next-to-leading order JIMWLK Hamiltonian, our results for the impact factor improve the accuracy of the inclusive dijet cross-section to \( \mathcal{O} \) ( \( {\alpha}_s^2 \) ln( x f /x Bj )), where x f is a rapidity factorization scale. These results are an essential ingredient in assessing the discovery potential of inclusive dijets to uncover the physics of gluon saturation at the Electron-Ion Collider.

T-odd leading-twist quark TMDs at small x

We study the small-x asymptotics of the flavor non-singlet T-odd leading-twist quark transverse momentum dependent parton distributions (TMDs), the Sivers and Boer-Mulders functions. While the leading eikonal small-x asymptotics of the quark Sivers function is given by the spin-dependent odderon [1, 2], we are interested in revisiting the sub-eikonal correction considered by us earlier in [3]. We first simplify the expressions for both TMDs at small Bjorken x and then construct small-x evolution equations for the resulting operators in the large-N c limit, with N c the number of quark colors. For both TMDs, the evolution equations resum all powers of the double-logarithmic parameter α s ln 2 (1/x), where α s is the strong coupling constant, which is assumed to be small. Solving these evolution equations numerically (for the Sivers function) and analytically (for the Boer-Mulders function) we arrive at the following leading small-x asymptotics of these TMDs at large N c :$$ {\displaystyle \begin{array}{l}{f}_{1T}^{\perp NS}\left(x\ll 1,{k}_T^2\right)={C}_O\left(x,{k}_T^2\right)\frac{1}{x}+{C}_1\left(x,{k}_T^2\right){\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)}^{3.4\sqrt{\frac{\alpha_s{N}_c}{4\pi }}}\\ {}{h}_1^{\perp \textrm{NS}}\left(x\ll 1,{k}_T^2\right)=C\left(x,{k}_T^2\right){\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)}^{-1}.\end{array}} $$ The functions C O (x,$ {k}_T^2 $), C 1 (x,$ {k}_T^2 $), and C(x,$ {k}_T^2 $) can be readily obtained in our formalism: they are mildly x-dependent and do not strongly affect the power-of-x asymptotics shown above. The function C O , along with the 1/x factor, arises from the odderon exchange. For the sub-eikonal contribution to the quark Sivers function (the term with C 1 ), our result shown above supersedes the one obtained in [3] due to the new contributions identified recently in [4].

All order factorization for virtual Compton scattering at next-to-leading power

We discuss all-order factorization for the virtual Compton process at next-to leading power (NLP) in the Λ QCD /Q and $\sqrt{-t}$/Q expansion (twist-3), both in the double deeply-virtual case and the single-deeply-virtual case. We use the soft-collinear efective theory (SCET) as the main theoretical tool. We conclude that collinear factorization holds in the double-deeply virtual case, where both photons are far of-shell. The agreement is found with the known results for the hard matching coefcients at leading order $α^0_s$, and we can therefore connect the traditional approach with SCET. In the single-deeply-virtual case, commonly called deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS), the contribution of non-target collinear regions complicates the factorization. These include momentum modes collinear to the real photon and (ultra)soft interactions between the photon-collinear and target-collinear modes. However, such contributions appear only for the transversely polarized virtual photon at the NLP accuracy and in fact it is the only NLP ~ (Λ QCD /Q) 1 ~ ( $\sqrt{-t}$/Q) 1 contribution in that case. We therefore conclude that the DVCS amplitude for a longitudinally polarized virtual photon, where the leading power ~ (Λ QCD /Q) 0 ~ ($\sqrt{-t}$/Q) 0 contribution vanishes, is free of non-target collinear contributions and the collinear factorization in terms of twist-3 GPDs holds in that case as well.

Effects of lead and lean in multi-axis directed energy deposition

Here, the present study examines the effect of varying laser incidence angles on textural, microstructural, and geometric characteristics of directed energy deposition (DED) processed materials, providing a more comprehensive outlook on participating laser-matter interaction phenomena and ultimately devising strategies to ameliorate print performance. In this study, single-layer, single-/multi-track specimens were processed to examine the effect of non-orthogonal angular configurations on bead morphology, microstructure, phase composition, and textural representation of DED-processed 316L stainless steel materials. It was observed that bead size decreased at increasing lead and lean angles. Asymmetry in the distribution of the bead morphology as a function of lead angle indicates better catchment for acute lead angle configurations over obtuse configurations. No significant differences in phase composition, texture, and microstructure were observed in moderate off-axis configurations. When the penetration depth for the deposits was below 20 μm, columnar structures dominated the microstructure of the deposited material. At deeper penetration depths, columnar and equiaxed structures were observed at the bead-substrate interface and center of the bead, respectively. Compared to powder-blown DED, wire-DED dilution profiles were found to be asymmetric in both orthogonal and non-orthogonal wire DED samples.

Stochastic boundary condition effects on supersonic leading edge blowing

The present manuscript studies the robustness of leading edge blowing for active control of the upstream bow shock and overall aerothermal characteristics of a supersonic airfoil subject to variability in the injection conditions. The injection boundary conditions were considered stochastic and their randomness was propagated to the flow topology and aerothermal quantities of interest by means of non-intrusive Polynomial Chaos Expansions. The evaluations needed to build these expansions were carried out via steady two-dimensional Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes simulations. Two different injection port sizes were considered, with the smallest promoting a Coanda effect that gives rise to non-symmetric flow topologies. The uncertain boundary conditions lead to significant variations in the flow topology, particularly at the injection exit and the bow shock position, with variations of up to 75% of the nominal value. Here this study identifies the key operating conditions to ensure the optimal application of leading-edge injection for active control of supersonic airfoils.

Radiation Stability of Mixed Tin-Lead Halide Perovskites: Implications for Space Applications

Mixed organic-inorganic halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have received considerable attention in recent years for their impressive solar to electrical power efficiency gains and potentially lower material and processing costs for optoelectronic applications. In addition to terrestrial applications, PSCs are of interest to the space power markets for their low cost, low weight, adaptability to flexible architectures, and tolerance to high energy particle irradiation (mainly protons and electrons). Here we investigate the properties of mixed formamidinium-methylammonium tin-lead iodide (FASn)0.6(MAPb)0.4I3 perovskites which lower the lead content as well as the bandgap, making them attractive for the low bandgap absorber material in tandem PSCs. Through current density-voltage (JV) characterization at lower temperatures, majority carrier transport is hindered and a barrier to photogenerated carrier extraction is evident. This is attributed to the thermally induced change of the bandgap of the absorber layer relative to the energy selective contacts in the device. We find that although the architecture used here hinders the performance at temperatures below 225 K, the tolerance to high energy (3.7 MeV) protons is impressive, considerably out-performing commercially available thin-film CIGS. These results suggest further improvements to structural and interface stability as well as lightweight encapsulation could lead to all perovskite flexible tandem arrays deployed for power generation on missions to low Earth orbit, the moon, Mars, and beyond.

Formation and degradation mechanism of methylammonium lead iodide perovskite thin film fabricated by electrospray technique

Electrospray deposition technique has been reported previously for fabricating effective and stable perovskite thin film, leading to efficient perovskite solar cells. Here, in this work, a comprehensive investigation of the formation mechanism of methylammonium lead iodide perovskite (CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 ) film by electrospray technique is demonstrated and compared to the formation mechanism through the conventional spin coating technique. In the electrospray process, charged MAI nanoparticles are gradually introduced onto the PbI 2 film, intercalating within the PbI 2 structure to produce the perovskite film. In contrast, the spin-coating method involves supplying the MAI solution in bulk, leading to perovskite crystal formation through the dissolution of the PbI 2 layer by the MAI solution, followed by recrystallization into perovskite oriented in the [110] direction, 30° inclined to the substrate. The impact of charge and the electric field on the formation of perovskite film using the electrospray is explored. Furthermore, the intrinsic stability of perovskite films is monitored in real-time in a highly humid environment (≥80 % relative humidity (RH)) using in-situ Grazing Incidence Wide Angle X-ray Scattering (GIWAXS), and a degradation mechanism is proposed to enhance the durability of the perovskite-based devices. The study further delves into the comparison of the stability of electrosprayed and spin-coated perovskite film, and the impact of humidity level and the presence of a hole-transporting layer on the stability of the perovskite layer. Overall, this work provides a detailed understanding of the formation and humidity-induced degradation mechanism of electrosprayed perovskite films, offering insights that can extend to various applications of perovskite materials.

Orientational Order in Spin-Cast Lead-Iodide Perovskite Nanocrystal Solids

Combined synthetic control over size and composition renders colloidal lead-halide perovskite nanocrystals a tunable platform for high-efficiency optoelectronic applications. However, the properties and operational stability of devices based on nanocrystal solids are often dictated by the method of the evaporation-induced assembly. Ubiquitous slow evaporation techniques can produce highly ordered nanocrystal domains but limit the prospects for scalable fabrication of continuous device layers, calling for investigation of approaches to more rapidly form ordered perovskite nanocrystal solids. Here, we study orientationally ordered lead-iodide perovskite nanocrystal solids prepared by conventional spin coating with molecular additives (excess ligand) to enhance ordering within the arrays. In situ X-ray scattering measurements reveal that orientational ordering occurs rapidly upon solvent removal during spin coating and can be further enhanced by manipulating the spin speed. We vary the additive ligand length and explore trade-offs between ordering and layered perovskite impurity formation. Arrays treated with the intermediate-length octylamine ligand exhibit increased in-plane electronic conductivity, suggesting orientational ordering and internanocrystal electronic coupling can be enhanced by the treatment. In conclusion, these results highlight the prospects of establishing long-range order in lead-halide perovskite nanocrystal solids by using simple and fast coating methods.

One Structure, Two Elements—LuGe 2 Superconductor vs Ordinary Metallic Conductor LuSn 2 . A Case Study on How Site-Selective Germanium for Tin Atom Substitution Leads to Modulating of the Charge Distribution

The substitution of chemically similar elements in a given crystal structure is an effective way to enhance physical properties, but the understanding on such improvements is usually impeded because the substitutions are random, and the roles of the different atoms cannot be distinguished by crystallographic symmetry. Herein, we provide a detailed crystallographic analysis and property measurements for the continuous solid solutions LuGe x Sn 2–x (0 < x < 2). The results show that there is no apparent change of the global symmetry, with the end-members LuGe 2 and LuSn 2 , as well as the intermediate LuGe x Sn 2–x compositions adopting the ZrSi 2 type structure (space group Cmcm, Pearson index oC12). Yet, the refinements of the crystal structures from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data show that Ge–Sn atom substitutions are not random, but occur preferentially at the zig-zag chain. The patterned distribution of two group 14 elements leads to a significant variation in chemical bonding and charge ordering within the other structural fragment, the 2D square nets, thereby resulting in tuned electron transport. The enhancement is greater than the typical Bloch-Gruneisen model, and more akin to the parallel-resistor model. Magnetization measurements on single crystals show bulk superconductivity in all LuGe x Sn 2–x samples with shielding fractions as high as 90%. Specific heat data confirm the effect to originate from residual metallic tin in the material, indicating that Sn atom substitutions in the 2D square nets cause disruptions of the hypervalent bonding and local anisotropy, which ultimately leads to vanishing of the superconducting state in the end-member LuGe 2 . This work sheds light on how the complexity in chemical interactions by two different carbon congeners leads to changes in the physical properties and how they can be correlated with the induced charge distribution. Furthermore, these studies also provide a general approach to modulation of charge density, and thus, of emerging physical properties in other classes of intermetallic systems based on the main-group elements of groups 13 to 15.

Light-Dependent Impedance Spectra and Transient Photoconductivity in a Ruddlesden–Popper 2D Lead–Halide Perovskite Revealed by Electrical Scanned Probe Microscopy and Accompanying Theory

Electric force microscopy was used to record the light-dependent impedance spectrum and the probe transient photoconductivity of a film of butylammonium lead iodide, BA 2 PbI 4 , a 2D Ruddlesden–Popper perovskite semiconductor. The impedance spectrum of BA 2 PbI 4 showed modest changes as the illumination intensity was varied up to 1400 mW cm –2 , in contrast with the comparatively dramatic changes seen for 3D lead–halide perovskites under similar conditions. BA 2 PbI 4 ’s light-induced conductivity had a rise time and decay time of ~100 μs, 10 4 slower than expected from direct electron–hole recombination yet 10 5 faster than the conductivity-recovery times recently observed in 3D lead–halide perovskites and attributed to the relaxation of photogenerated vacancies. What sample properties are probed by electric force microscope measurements remains an open question. A Lagrangian-mechanics treatment of the electric force microscope experiment was recently introduced by Dwyer, Harrell, and Marohn which enabled the calculation of steady-state electric force microscope signals in terms of a complex sample impedance. Here this impedance treatment of the tip–sample interaction is extended, through the introduction of a time-dependent transfer function, to include time-resolved electrical scanned probe measurements. Here, it is shown that the signal in a phase-kick electric force microscope experiment, and therefore also the signal in a time-resolved electrostatic force microscope experiment, can be written explicitly in terms of the sample’s time-dependent resistance (i.e., conductivity).

Triplet Energy Transfer from Lead Halide Perovskite for Highly Selective Photocatalytic 2 + 2 Cycloaddition

Triplet excitons are generally confined within a semiconductor. Hence, solar energy utilization via direct triplet energy transfer (TET) from semiconductors is challenging. TET from lead halide perovskite semiconductors to nearby organic molecules has been illustrated with ultrafast spectroscopy. Direct utilization of solar energy, i.e., visible light, via TET for photocatalysis is an important route but has not yet been demonstrated with lead halide perovskite semiconductors. Here, we show that a photocatalytic reaction, focusing on a 2 + 2 cycloaddition reaction, can been successfully demonstrated via TET from lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs). In this work, the triplet excitons are shown to induce a highly diastereomeric syn-selective 2 + 2 cycloaddition starting from olefins. Such photocatalytic reactions probe the TET process previously only observed spectroscopically. Moreover, our observation demonstrates that bulk-like PNCs (size, >10 nm; PL = 530 nm), in addition to quantum-confined smaller PNCs, are also effective for TET. Our findings may render a new energy conversion pathway to employ PNCs via direct TET for photocatalytic organic synthesis.

Reversible Phase Transformation of Colloidal 2D Lead Halide Perovskite Platelets under Photoirradiation

The photostability of lead halide perovskites is an important criterion for their utilization in light harvesting applications. Colloidal two-dimensional mixed halide perovskites offer a convenient approach to probe photoinduced transformations using spectroscopy tools. We employed suspensions of colloidal 2D methylammonium lead halide perovskite platelets with butylammonium and octylammonium as organic spacer cations. Upon irradiation of the mixed halide perovskite (BAOAMAPb 2 (Br 3.5 I 3.5 )) colloidal platelet suspension, we observe a phase transformation, as seen from the formation of bromide rich domains (BAOAMAPb 2 Br 7 ) and an iodide complex (PbI 3 – ). Unlike in the case of 3D mixed halide films, we did not observe the formation of iodide rich domains as part of the photoinduced phase segregation process. Instead, we observed the dissociation of the BAOAMAPb 2 I 7 to form an iodide complex, PbI 3 – . Interestingly, this photoinduced phase transformation was reversible, as the products which were confined in the colloidal core restored the original mixed halide phase upon storage in dark. The spectroscopic measurements that characterize excited states of different colloidal methylammonium lead halide perovskites and kinetics of photoinduced transformation and their dark recovery are presented. Furthermore, these new phototransformations of colloidal perovskite platelets provide new insights into the processes that dictate their overall photostability.

Sustainable lead management in halide perovskite solar cells

Despite the rapid development of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) toward commercialization, the toxic lead (Pb) ions in PSCs pose a potential threat to the environment, health and safety. Managing Pb via recycling represents a promising approach to mitigating its toxicity. However, managing Pb from commonly used organic solvents has been challenging due to the lack of suitable Pb adsorbents. Here, we report a new adsorbent for both separation and recovery of Pb from PSC pollutants. The synthesized iron-incorporated hydroxyapatite possesses a strongly negatively charged surface that improves electrostatic interaction through surface-charge delocalization, thus leading to enhanced Pb adsorption. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility of a complete Pb management process, including the purification of Pb-containing non-aqueous solvents below 15 parts per 10 9 , a level compliant with the standards of the US Environmental Protection Agency, as well as recycling of 99.97% of Pb ions by forming lead iodide.

Weak magnetic field-dependent photoluminescence properties of lead bromide perovskites

The strong spin–orbit coupling (SOC) in lead halide perovskites, when inversion symmetry is lifted, has provided opportunities for investigating the Rashba effect in these systems. Moreover, the strong orbital moment, which, in turn, impacts the spin-pair in singlet and triplet electronic states, plays a significant role in enhancing the optoelectronic properties in the presence of external magnetic fields in lead halide perovskites. Here, we investigate the effect of weak magnetic fields (<1 T) on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals with and without Ruddlesden–Popper (RP) faults and single crystals of CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3 . Along with an enhancement in the PL intensity as a function of an external magnetic field, which is observed in both lead bromide perovskites, the PL emission red-shifts in CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals. Density-functional theory calculations of the electronic band-edge in CsPbBr 3 show almost no change in the energy gap as a function of the external magnetic field. The experimental results, thus, suggest the role of mixing of the triplet and singlet excitonic states under weak magnetic fields. This is further deduced from an enhancement in PL lifetimes as a function of the field in CsPbBr 3 ⁠. In CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3⁠ , an increase in PL intensity is observed under weak magnetic fields; however, no changes in the peak energy or PL lifetimes are observed. The internal magnetic fields due to SOC are characterized for all three samples and found to be the highest for CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals with RP faults.

MHD Analysis of Dual-Coolant Lead-Lithium Blanket for Spherical Tokamak Advanced Reactor

The tritium breeding blanket is vital for future fusion power plants, with the Spherical Tokamak Advanced Reactor (STAR) project highlighting the dual-coolant lead-lithium (DCLL) design. The DCLL blanket performs shielding, energy exhaust, and tritium breeding using a lead-lithium alloy , with lithium as the breeder and lead as the neutron multiplier. It also serves as the primary coolant, with helium providing supplemental cooling. Reduced-activation ferritic/martensitic steel is used for the blanket structure. Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) phenomena influence the liquid metal flow in a magnetic field, affecting heat transfer in the breeder affected by energetic neutrons. Understanding key flow parameters in such conditions is critical for efficient DCLL design. This study uses three-dimensional thermofluid MHD analysis with ANSYS CFX software, modified at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, to simulate high Hartmann flows. The neutronics code MCNP, coupled with plasma equilibrium, provides heat source distribution. In conclusion, we examine electromagnetic interactions in adjacent fluid domains and analyze the magnetic field’s impact on flow distribution in the inboard and outboard blanket layout, using detailed mesh generation for accurate results.

A turnkey gaseous helium-cooled superconducting CORC ® dc power cable with integrated current leads

Abstract High-temperature superconducting (HTS) direct current (dc) power cable systems, capable of delivering power exceeding 10 MW while being cooled with cryogenic helium gas, have been developed for applications on naval electric ships, electric aircraft and in data centers. Current injection from room temperature into the superconducting power cable causes by far the greatest heat load to the cryogenic system. Efficient current leads with integrated helium gas heat exchangers were developed to inject a current exceeding 1 kA from room temperature into a superconducting Conductor on Round Core (CORC ® ) power cable, without the need for liquid nitrogen pre-cooling. A 2 m long single-pole CORC ® power cable system that included current leads was cooled using a Stirling cryocooler with a closed-loop helium gas circulation system. The turnkey power cable system allowed cool down from room temperature to its operating temperature of 60 K–70 K within 5 h, after which continuous operation at 1.2 kA was demonstrated. The successful development and demonstration of a CORC ® power cable with current leads containing integrated helium gas heat exchangers enables widespread implementation of HTS MW-class, high current density superconducting dc power cables in many applications with constrained space that require a power dense solution.

Dielectron production in proton-proton and proton-lead collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=5.02TeV

The first measurements of dielectron production at midrapidity (|η e | < 0.8) in proton–proton and proton–lead collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV at the LHC are presented. The dielectron cross section is measured with the ALICE detector as a function of the invariant mass m ee and the pair transverse momentum p T,ee in the ranges mee < 3.5 GeV/c 2 and p T,ee < 8 GeV/c, in both collision systems. In proton–proton collisions, the charm and beauty cross sections are determined at midrapidity from a fit to the data with two different event generators. This complements the existing dielectron measurements performed at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 and 13 TeV. The slope of the $\sqrt{s}$ dependence of the three measurements is described by FONLL calculations. The dielectron cross section measured in proton–lead collisions is in agreement, within the current precision, with the expected dielectron production without any nuclear matter effects for e + e - pairs from open heavy-flavor hadron decays. For the first time at LHC energies, the dielectron production in proton–lead and proton–proton collisions are directly compared at the same $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ via the dielectron nuclear modification factor R pPb . The measurements are compared to model calculations including cold nuclear matter effects, or additional sources of dielectrons from thermal radiation.
