This paper discusses a technique for randomizing over synthesized one-qubit gate sequences in order to mitigate coherent errors in fault-tolerant circuits. We present simulated and experimental data showing that randomization can reduce the trace distance to the target state.

Over several dedicated programs that include targets beyond the main cosmological samples, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument collected spectra for 304,970 unique objects in two fields centered on the COSMOS and XMM-LSS fields. In this work, we develop spectroscopic redshift robustness criteria for those spectra, validate these criteria using visual inspection, and provide two custom value-added catalogs with our redshift characterizations. With these criteria, we reliably classify 212,935 galaxies below z < 1.6, 9713 quasars, and 35,222 stars. The resulting catalogs achieve a redshift purity exceeding 99.4% across all galaxy samples. As a critical element in characterizing the selection function, we provide the description of 70 different algorithms that were used to select these targets from imaging data. To facilitate joint imaging/spectroscopic analyses, we provide row-matched photometry from the Dark Energy Camera, Hyper-Suprime Cam, and public COSMOS2020 photometric catalogs. Finally, we demonstrate example applications of these large catalogs to photometric redshift estimation, cluster finding, and completeness studies.
We present SIDM Concerto: 14 cosmological zoom-in simulations in cold dark matter (CDM) and self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) models based on the Symphony and Milky Way-est suites. SIDM Concerto includes one Large Magellanic Cloud– (LMC-) mass system (host mass ∼10 11 M ⊙ ), two Milky Way (MW) analogs (∼10 12 M ⊙ ), two group-mass hosts (∼10 13 M ⊙ ), and one low-mass cluster (∼10 14 M ⊙ ). Each host contains ≈2 × 10 7 particles and is run in CDM and one or more strong, velocity-dependent SIDM models. Our analysis of SIDM (sub)halo populations over seven subhalo mass decades reveals that (1) the fraction of core-collapsed isolated halos and subhalos peaks at a maximum circular velocity corresponding to the transition of the SIDM cross section from a v −4 to v 0 scaling; (2) SIDM subhalo mass functions are suppressed by ≈50% relative to CDM in LMC, MW, and group-mass hosts but are consistent with CDM in the low-mass cluster host; (3) subhalos’ inner density profile slopes, which are more diverse in SIDM than in CDM, are sensitive to both the amplitude and shape of the SIDM cross section. Our simulations provide a benchmark for testing SIDM predictions with astrophysical observations of field and satellite galaxies, strong lensing systems, and stellar streams.

This poster explores native parallel features in Fortran 2023 through the lens of supporting applications with libraries, compilers, and parallel runtimes. The language revision informally named Fortran 2008 introduced parallelism in the form of Single Program Multiple Data (SPMD) execution with two broad feature sets: (1) loop-level parallelism via do concurrent and (2) a Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) comprised of distributed “coarray” data structures. Fortran’s native parallelism has demonstrated high performance [1] and reduced the burden of inserting what sometimes amounts to more directives than code. Several compilers support both feature sets, typically by translating do concurrent into serial do loops annotated by parallel directives and by translating SPMD/PGAS features into direct calls to a communication library. Our research focuses primarily on two questions: (1) can the compiler’s parallel runtime library be developed in the language being compiled (Fortran) and (2) can we define an interface to the runtime that liberates compilers from being hardwired to one runtime and vice versa. We are answering these questions by developing the Parallel Runtime Interface for Fortran (PRIF) [2] and the Co-Array Fortran Framework of Efficient Interfaces to Network Environments (Caffeine) [3]. Caffeine is initially targeting adoption by LLVM Flang, a new open-source Fortran compiler developed by a broad community in industry, academia, and government labs. We are also exploring the use of these features in Inference-Engine, a deep learning library designed to facilitate neural network training and inference for high-performance computing applications written in modern Fortran.
In 2025, LLVM released its first Flang Fortran compiler version considered ready for widespread evaluation. We know of no published assessment of Flang compiling a workload- derived portfolio of high-performance computing (HPC) applications. We address this gap using workload data from the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC), which supports more than 10,000 scientists on approximately 1,000 projects. The NERSC workload analyses identify many Fortran components in heavily used applications. We selected 10 such packages with available source code. We compiled them with Flang 22.1.3 on NERSC’s Perlmutter system. Six compiled without code modifications, though some required build-system changes. Three compiled after minor source edits, mostly to address Fortran standard violations. One built only without OpenMP enabled. We evaluated seven additional packages selected for their use of, or enablement of, standard Fortran parallel features: multi-image execution and do concurrent. Six such codes compiled with most or all unit tests passing.
Nuclear Safety is a review journal that covers significant developments in the field of nuclear safety. Its scope includes the analysis and control of hazards associated with nuclear energy, operations involving fissionable materials, and the products of nuclear fission and their effects on the environment. Primary emphasis is on safety in reactor design, construction, and operation; however, the safety aspects of the entire fuel cycle, including fuel fabrication, spent-fuel processing, nuclear waste disposal, handling of radioisotopes, and environmental effects of these operations, are also treated.

Julienne is a compiler-portable unit-testing framework for Fortran software projects, including those that use the parallel/accelerator-programming features of Fortran 2023. Julienne achieves portability across compilers through minimalism and isolation. The minimal design ensures that Julienne uses only features supported by the majority of Fortran compilers. The isolation through zero dependencies ensures that no other projects block Julienne from building with a particular compiler. Julienne also contains with additional services that support its unit-testing code. These include functions for manipulating strings, command lines and input/output format strings; and a user-defined collective subroutine for verifying that all processes pass a test in parallel testing. Julienne's name derives from the term for vegetables sliced into thin strings: julienne vegetables. Julienne captures the authors' most frequently used thin slice of the Veggies and Sourcery software repositories while avoiding certain compiler limitations of the those two packages.
