Third-body stabilization of supercritical CO 2 in CO oxidation: development and application of a ReaxFF force field for the CO/O/CO 2 system

Supercritical CO 2 (scCO 2 ) plays a crucial role as a solvent in separation processes, advanced power cycles, and materials processing. Nonetheless, the atomistic comprehension of how the dense scCO 2 matrix influences the fundamental reaction of carbon monoxide (CO) is still insufficiently explored. Experimental studies and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations frequently fail to detect the highly reactive, transient intermediates, such as atomic oxygen (O), that drive these reactions. Here, to address this issue, we have developed a novel ReaxFF reactive force field for the CO 2 /CO/O system. The force field parameters were calibrated using density functional theory and second-order Møller-Plesset calculations to model CO 2 crystal properties, intermolecular interactions, bond dissociation curves, and reaction energy barriers. The force field reproduces the cohesive energy of the CO 2 crystal, the pressure characteristics of bulk scCO 2 , the equation-of-state behavior over a wide pressure–density range, the pressure dependence of the C–O bond length under compression, and the structural properties of liquid and scCO 2 , as documented by experiments, ab-initio MD, and prominent non-reactive models. The force field was subsequently applied to study the CO + O → CO 2 reaction. In a dilute environment, the reaction is inefficient as the newly formed CO 2 rapidly dissociates due to excess kinetic and potential energy acquired from the exothermic reaction. Conversely, in a dense scCO 2 environment, the surrounding matrix acts as an efficient third body, stabilizing the emerging CO2 product via molecular collisions. Statistical analysis confirms an average excess energy dissipation of 133.9 ± 3.6 kcal/mol over 112.4 ± 17.9 ps. Kinetic energy decomposition reveals that ∼ 92% of the excess kinetic energy is stored in internal (rotational and vibrational) degrees of freedom. This ReaxFF force field establishes a mechanistic foundation for third-body stabilization in dense reactive environments.

Insights into oxygen diffusion in rare earth disilicate environmental barrier coatings

Environmental barrier coatings (EBC) are crucial for the use of SiC-based ceramic matrix composites in high-temperature combustion environments, yet knowledge of oxygen diffusion in these coatings is limited. This study investigates oxygen diffusion dynamics in the β-RE 2 Si 2 O 7 system to minimize oxygen penetration in rare earth disilicates. We analyze defect formation energy under varying oxygen conditions, identifying key diffusion mechanisms. In oxygen-rich environments, the most favorable neutral interstitial oxygen diffuses along the [110] direction. In oxygen-poor conditions, neutral oxygen vacancies rotate around Y and Si atoms, exhibiting a diffusivity of 6.59×10 −22 m 2 /s at 1500 K for β-Yb 2 Si 2 O 7 . Under intermediate oxygen levels, charged interstitial oxygen diffuses via concerted interstitialcy along the [001] direction with a diffusivity of 6.21×10 −17 m 2 /s. Additionally, alloying rare earth Y with Er and Yb increases diffusion barriers, contributing to improved EBC performance in extreme environments. The insights gained provides valuable guidance for designing robust coatings tailored to withstand extreme operational environments.

Assessing entropy for catalytic processes at complex reactive interfaces

When chemical reactions are accelerated by a catalyst, entropy differences between reactants and their transient intermediates can be the driving force behind the promotion or inhibition of desired and parasitic chemical pathways. Understanding and controlling catalytic processes therefore requires both a fundamental and practicable understanding of entropy in addition to enthalpy. In unstructured media such as the vapor phase equilibrated with sparsely covered surfaces, entropy can be adequately accounted for by well-established approaches based on translational, rotational, and harmonic vibrational partition functions. However, these approximations become inadequate in more complex condensed phase environments, e.g., solid liquid interfaces of confined reaction spaces. In this chapter, we provide an overview of the state-of-art in the computational quantification of entropy and its known ramifications on catalysis. The fundamental roles of thermodynamics and kinetics in catalysis are covered in enough detail to appreciate and contextualize the computational methods employed to compute chemically accurate estimates of entropy. These methods are discussed in appropriate detail and range from the ubiquitous harmonic oscillator approximation where entropy unrelated to high frequency oscillations is typically underestimated, to enhanced free energy sampling with molecular dynamics where the desired accuracy must be weighed against the associated computational cost of obtaining it. The rising importance of machine learning and artificial intelligence in accelerating methodological progress in this field is touched upon, as well. Finally, applications, successes, and pitfalls of using these methods are provided to showcase past and present accomplishments while clarifying where improvements in both understanding and methodology are still needed.

Facile Measurement of the Rotation of a Single Optically Trapped Nanoparticle Using the Diagonal Ratio of a Quadrant Photodiode

Optical tweezers are a powerful tool for exploring physical properties of particles in various environments through analysis of their dynamics in a trapping potential. Analysis of the trapped particle's position is often done using interferometric back-focal-plane detection microscopy in which interference between the trapping laser and the light interacting with the trapped particle is projected on a quadrant photo-diode (QPD). The QPD measurements are almost universally the voltage ratios between the transverse components of the detector (left/right; up/down) that are calibrated to ascertain particle positions and orientations (i.e., rotation). In this paper, we demonstrate how measuring the diagonal ratio of the QPD allows tracking the spinning and orbital motion of optically trapped objects with enhanced sensitivity compared to the conventional transverse ratio and reveals additional information about particle dynamics. The diagonal ratio "balances" the signal from opposite sides of the QPD, allowing common mode noise reduction and increased measurement sensitivity of the rotating nanospheres at frequencies from below 200 Hz to above 15 kHz. We show that the variability in particle rotation rates is due to slight differences in the aspect ratio of the nanoparticles. We also measure in situ a gradual acceleration in the spinning frequency of trapped nanoparticles due to photothermal shedding of surface ligands and the resulting decrease of rotational friction in solution. The accelerating particles spin at rates exceeding 30 kHz and are eventually "optically printed" onto the glass coverslip on top of the liquid cell enclosure. The diagonal ratio is a simple, readily available, and powerful enabler for measuring rotational dynamics with a 5-fold sensitivity increase over conventional QPD measurements. This affords opportunities for controlling the orientational dynamics of trapped nanoparticles, which is crucial for various applications, including nanoscale mechanical motors.

The Impacts of Rotational Mixing on the Precipitation Simulated by a Convection Permitting Model

With increased availability of computational resources, regional and global scale convection-permitting model (CPM, Δx ~ 1–10 km) simulations are becoming more common. CPMs have improved accuracy in their representation of deep convection and mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) compared to coarser resolution models. However, CPMs still exhibit convective cloud and precipitation biases relative to observations, notably a lesser frequency of light precipitation rates and greater frequency of heavy precipitation rates. In this work we hypothesize that these CPM biases are related to under-resolved mixing between convective updrafts and their surrounding environment. To test this hypothesis, we introduce a parameterization to the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) that adds a small angular rotation of the grid-scale flow about the axis perpendicular to the plane of convective drafts. This rotated flow is then allowed to alter advection of moisture and hydrometeors. The effects of such mixing on precipitation characteristics are evaluated in month-long 4-km grid spacing simulations over the Amazon. The enhanced mixing transports moisture and condensate from convective cores to other areas including downdrafts. This increases the frequency of low-precipitable water and light precipitation. It also decreases the frequency of intense precipitation from isolated deep convection and MCSs, increases cloud top temperatures, reduces radar echo-top heights, and increases overall precipitation by altering the relationship of precipitation with precipitable water, in better agreement with observations. The results suggest when optimized using multiple observations, such an approach may provide a path toward more accurate representation of convection and precipitation statistics in convection-permitting simulations.

Dramatic effect of oxide on measured liquid metal rheology

Liquid metals have traditionally been treated as Newtonian liquids, but several researchers have recently suggested that some metals may shear thin. While apparent shear thinning can be caused by surface oxidation, the reports of shear-thinning metals were investigated using cup and bob type rheometers, which are expected to only be weakly impacted by the surface contamination effects. We show here that even small amounts of oxide on the surface of liquid metals can cause dramatic changes to the measured viscosity of the sample. Using a Searle-type rotational rheometer, we measured the viscosity of eutectic gallium indium and tin in a low-oxygen environment. When either metal is slightly oxidized, the measured viscosity increases by orders of magnitude and the liquid displays erroneous shear-thinning behavior. When the oxide is removed via an active flux, the measured viscosity is Newtonian. The findings outlined here provide insight into the difficulties of measuring the viscosity of easily oxidized liquids and confirm that liquid metals are likely best described as Newtonian liquids at all measured shear rates.

High-Accuracy Angle Generator for Angular Calibrations to Support Optical Metrology Laboratories and Light Source Facilities

The overarching vision for this project was to build the most accurate full-rotation angular positioning system in the Americas, and that goal remains. In labs performing similar work, the environment is typically closer to a clean room than an office space, like we had before the upgrades. We are now positioned to achieve our intended result with our upgraded infrastructure, system hardware, calibration techniques, and software. As detailed below, the combination of the pandemic schedule and technical challenges have set us back, but we will continue on the path toward our vision beyond the end of this Phase 2. It’s too important for us, for industry, and for the nation not to do so.

Geometric Transformations Afforded by Rotational Freedom in Aramid Amphiphile Nanostructures

Molecular self-assembly in water leads to nanostructure geometries that can be tuned owing to the highly dynamic nature of amphiphiles. There is growing interest in strongly interacting amphiphiles with suppressed dynamics, as they exhibit ultrastability in extreme environments. However, such amphiphiles tend to assume a limited range of geometries upon self-assembly due to the specific spatial packing induced by their strong intermolecular interactions. To overcome this limitation while maintaining structural robustness, we incorporate rotational freedom into the aramid amphiphile molecular design by introducing a diacetylene moiety between two aramid units, resulting in diacetylene aramid amphiphiles (D-AAs). This design strategy enables rotations along the carbon–carbon sp hybridized bonds of an otherwise fixed aramid domain. We show that varying concentrations and equilibration temperatures of D-AA in water lead to self-assembly into four different nanoribbon geometries: short, extended, helical, and twisted nanoribbons, all while maintaining robust structure with thermodynamic stability. In conclusion, we use advanced microscopy, X-ray scattering, spectroscopic techniques, and two-dimensional (2D) NMR to understand the relationship between conformational freedom within strongly interacting amphiphiles and their self-assembly pathways.

Electrical control of coherent spin rotation of a single-spin qubit

Nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers, optically active atomic defects in diamond, have attracted tremendous interest for quantum sensing, network, and computing applications due to their excellent quantum coherence and remarkable versatility in a real, ambient environment. One of the critical challenges to develop NV-based quantum operation platforms results from the difficulty in locally addressing the quantum spin states of individual NV spins in a scalable, energy-efficient manner. Here, we report electrical control of the coherent spin rotation rate of a single-spin qubit in NV-magnet based hybrid quantum systems. By utilizing electrically generated spin currents, we are able to achieve efficient tuning of magnetic damping and the amplitude of the dipole fields generated by a micrometer-sized resonant magnet, enabling electrical control of the Rabi oscillation frequency of NV spins. Our results highlight the potential of NV centers in designing functional hybrid solid-state systems for next-generation quantum-information technologies. The demonstrated coupling between the NV centers and the propagating spin waves harbored by a magnetic insulator further points to the possibility to establish macroscale entanglement between distant spin qubits.

Observation of Kolmogorov turbulence due to multiscale vortices in dusty plasma experiments

We report the experimental observation of fully developed Kolmogorov turbulence originating from self-excited vortex flows in a three-dimensional (3D) dust cloud. The characteristic -5/3 scaling of 3D Kolmogorov turbulence is consistent in both the spatial and temporal energy spectra within a statistical variation of experimental data. Additionally, the 2/3 scaling in the second-order structure function further supports the presence of Kolmogorov turbulence. We also identified a slight deviation in the tails of the probability distribution functions for velocity gradients, a reflection of intermittency. The experiment showed the formation of a dust cloud in the diffused plasma region away from the electrodes. The dust rotation was observed in multiple experimental campaigns under different discharge conditions at different spatial locations and background plasma environments.

Multi-Axis Resonant Plate Shock Testing Evaluation and Test Specification Development

Resonant plate testing is a shock test method that is frequently used to simulate pyroshock events in the laboratory. Recently, it was discovered that if the unit under test is installed at an off-center location, a tri-axial accelerometer would record a shock response in three directions and the resulting shock response spectra implied that the test may have qualified the component in three directions simultaneously. The purpose of this research project was to evaluate this idea of multi-axis shock testing to determine if it was truly a multi-axis shock environment and if such a test could be used as an equivalent component qualification test. A study was conducted using generic, additively manufactured components tested on a resonant plate, along with an investigation of plate motion to evaluate the component response to off- center plate excitation. The data obtained here along with the analytical simulations performed indicate that off-center resonant plate tests are actually not three-axis shock tests, but rather single axis shocks at an arbitrary angle dictated by the location of the unit under test on the plate. This conclusion is supported by the fact that only one vectored shock input is provided to the component in a resonant plate test. Thus, the output response is a coupled response of the transverse plate vibration and the rotational motion of the component on the plate. Additionally, a multi-axis shock test defined by three single axis test environments always results in a significant component over-test in one direction.

Astraea: Predicting Long Rotation Periods with 27 Day Light Curves

The rotation periods of planet-hosting stars can be used for modeling and mitigating the impact of magnetic activity in radial velocity measurements and can help constrain the high-energy flux environment and space weather of planetary systems. Millions of stars and thousands of planet hosts are observed with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). However, most will only be observed for 27 contiguous days in a year, making it difficult to measure rotation periods with traditional methods. This is especially problematic for field M dwarfs, which are ideal candidates for exoplanet searches, but which tend to have periods in excess of the 27 day observing baseline. We present a new tool, Astraea, for predicting long rotation periods from short-duration light curves combined with stellar parameters from Gaia DR2. Using Astraea, we can predict the rotation periods from Kepler 4 yr light curves with 13% uncertainty overall (and a 9% uncertainty for periods >30 days). By training on 27 day Kepler light-curve segments, Astraea can predict rotation periods up to 150 days with 9% uncertainty (5% for periods >30 days). After training this tool on these 27 day Kepler light-curve segments, we applied Astraea to real TESS data. For the 195 stars that were observed by both Kepler and TESS, we were able to predict the rotation periods with 55% uncertainty despite the wild differences in systematics.

Liquid Structure and Transport Properties of the Deep Eutectic Solvent Ethaline

A range of techniques including physical property measurements, neutron scattering experiments, ab initio molecular dynamics, and classical molecular dynamics simulations are used to probe the structural, thermodynamic, and transport properties of a deep eutectic solvent comprised of a 1:2 molar ratio of choline chloride and ethylene glycol. This mixture, known as Ethaline, has many desirable properties for use in a range of applications, and therefore, understanding its liquid structure and transport properties is of interest. Simulation results are able to capture experimental densities, diffusivities, viscosities, and structure factors extremely well. Here, the solvation environment is dynamic and dominated by different hydrogen bonding interactions. Dynamic heterogeneities resulting from hydrogen bonding interactions are quantified. Rotational dynamics of molecular dipole moments of choline and ethylene glycol are computed and found to exhibit a fast and slow mode.

Computational general relativistic force-free electrodynamics: I. Multi-coordinate implementation and testing

General relativistic force-free electrodynamics is one possible plasma-limit employed to analyze energetic outflows in which strong magnetic fields are dominant over all inertial phenomena. The amazing images of black hole (BH) shadows from the Galactic Center and the M87 galaxy provide a first direct glimpse into the physics of accretion flows in the most extreme environments of the universe. The efficient extraction of energy in the form of collimated outflows or jets from a rotating BH is directly linked to the topology of the surrounding magnetic field. We aim at providing a tool to numerically model the dynamics of such fields in magnetospheres around compact objects, such as BHs and neutron stars. To do so, we probe their role in the formation of high energy phenomena such as magnetar flares and the highly variable teraelectronvolt emission of some active galactic nuclei. In this work, we present numerical strategies capable of modeling fully dynamical force-free magnetospheres of compact astrophysical objects. Here, we provide implementation details and extensive testing of our implementation of general relativistic force-free electrodynamics in Cartesian and spherical coordinates using the infrastructure of the E INSTEIN T OOLKIT . The employed hyperbolic/parabolic cleaning of numerical errors with full general relativistic compatibility allows for fast advection of numerical errors in dynamical spacetimes. Such fast advection of divergence errors significantly improves the stability of the general relativistic force-free electrodynamics modeling of BH magnetospheres.

Rotational excitation and de-excitation of magnesium mono-sulphide (MgS) by He collisions

ABSTRACT Magnesium mono-sulphide (MgS) plays a crucial role in astrochemical processes, particularly in the interstellar medium (ISM), where metal-sulphur chemistry influences molecular formation and evolution. This work presents a detailed study of the rotational excitation and de-excitation of MgS through collisions with helium (He) atoms, the second most abundant species in the ISM after hydrogen, which includes both atomic (H) and molecular forms (H2). The focus on MgS–He collisions arises from He's high abundance, chemical inertness, and simpler electronic structure, which make it well suited for quantum scattering calculations. These characteristics establish He as an ideal candidate for initial studies, providing fundamental data for future investigations involving H2. The study uses quantum scattering methods to calculate the collisional rate coefficients over a broad temperature range. These rates are critical for interpreting observational data on MgS and predicting its abundance in space. The interaction potential between MgS and He is calculated using the rigid rotor approximation and the Jacobi coordinate system, employing the CCSD(T)-F12a/aug-cc-pVTZ method for accurate two-dimensional potential energy surface. The study explores the anisotropic nature of the MgS–He interaction, which favours odd Δj rotational transitions at low collision energies. The inelastic cross-sections for rotational transitions involving up to 16 rotational levels of MgS were computed up to 1000 cm−1, enabling the calculation of rate coefficients up to 150 K for Δj = ±1, ±2, and ± 3 rotational transitions. The results show that Δj = 1 transitions dominate at low temperatures, while Δj = 2 transitions become more significant at higher temperatures. This study provides valuable data for interpreting future astrophysical observations of MgS. The findings also propose new rotational transitions for MgS detection in space, enhancing our ability to track and study this molecule in various cosmic environments.

Dynamic Phase Alignment in Inertial Alfvén Turbulence

In weakly collisional plasma environments with sufficiently low electron beta, Alfvénic turbulence transforms into inertial Alfvénic turbulence at scales below the electron skin depth, k ⊥ d e ≳ 1. We argue that, in inertial Alfvénic turbulence, both energy and generalized kinetic helicity exhibit direct cascades. We demonstrate that the two cascades are compatible due to the existence of a strong scale dependence of the phase alignment angle between velocity and magnetic field fluctuations, with the phase alignment angle scaling as cos α k ∝ $k$$^{–1}_{⊥}$. The kinetic and magnetic energy spectra scale as ∝ $k$$^{–5/3}_{⊥}$ and ∝ $k$$^{–11/3}_{⊥}$, respectively. As a result of the dual direct cascade, the generalized helicity spectrum scales as ∝ $k$$^{–5/3}_{⊥}$, implying progressive balancing of the turbulence as the cascade proceeds to smaller scales in the k ⊥ d e >> 1 range. Turbulent eddies exhibit a phase-space anisotropy k ∥ ∝ $k$$^{5/3}_{⊥}$, consistent with critically balanced inertial Alfvén fluctuations. Furthermore, our results may be applicable to a variety of geophysical, space, and astrophysical environments, including the Earth’s magnetosheath and ionosphere, solar corona, and nonrelativistic pair plasmas, as well as to strongly rotating nonionized fluids.

Development, verification, and validation of comprehensive acoustic fluid-structure interaction capabilities in an open-source computational platform

The acoustic fluid-structure interaction (FSI) formulation is a practical numerical approach for the seismic analysis of fluid-filled tanks. However, there are no verification and validation studies reported in the literature that demonstrate the ability of an acoustic FSI numerical model to predict responses important to structural and mechanical design for intense translational and rotational earthquake inputs. Herein, an acoustic FSI formulation is implemented in the open-source Multiphysics Object-Oriented Simulation Environment (MOOSE), and is formally verified and validated using analytical solutions and code-to-code verification, and experimental data, respectively. The analytical solutions are for small amplitude, unidirectional seismic inputs. The code-to-code verification utilizes a previously verified and validated Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) numerical model in the commercial finite element code LS-DYNA. The validation studies utilize a comprehensive data set assembled from results of 3D earthquake-simulator tests of a fluid-filled vessel. The acoustic numerical model in MOOSE is verified and validated for hydrodynamic pressures and support reactions except for cases that involve significant convective response. For small amplitude inputs, numerically predicted wave heights match those of the analytical solutions. The numerical model is not verified and validated for wave height calculations under intense 3D seismic inputs. The run times for the acoustic FSI simulations in MOOSE are an order of magnitude, or more, shorter than for the corresponding ALE simulations in LS-DYNA. The utility of the MOOSE acoustic FSI implementation is demonstrated by seismic analysis of a building equipped with a fluid-filled, advanced nuclear reactor.

Leaf-level physiological strategies related to productivity and plasticity of Populus in the Southeastern United States

Introduction: Populus and its hybrids are attractive bioenergy crops and the southeastern United States has broad ability to supply bioenergy markets with woody biomass. Breeding and hybridization have led to superior eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides W. Bartram ex Marshall) and hybrid poplars adapted to a wide variety of site types not suited for agricultural production. In order to maximize productivity and minimize inputs, genotypes need to efficiently use available site resources and tolerate environmental stresses. In addition, we need to determine plasticity of traits and their coordination across sites to select traits that will broadly characterize genotypes. Therefore, our study objectives were to determine (1) which leaf traits were correlated with growth, (2) if traits and genotypes exhibited significant plasticity across sites, and (3) how traits were coordinated within and across sites and Populus taxa. Methods: We measured trees at two sites in northeastern Mississippi, United States: one upland and one alluvial terrace site. Genotypes included eastern cottonwoods as well as F 1 crosses of eastern cottonwood and P. maximowiczii (Henry), P. nigra (L.) and P. trichocarpa (Torr. & Gray). Results: We found that sites differed in which leaf traits were correlated with productivity; with water use efficiency specifically being positively correlated with growth at an alluvial terrace site, but negatively correlated with growth at an upland site. Tree height growth, leaf isotope composition (δ 13 C and δ 15 N), as well as leaf mass per area (LMA) exhibited the least plasticity across sites, while physiological gas exchange parameters and leaf nitrogen concentration exhibited the highest plasticity. Broadly across taxa, leaf carbon isotope ratios were correlated with intrinsic water use efficiency, and stomatal conductance was positively correlated with photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency across sites, while leaf nitrogen isotope ratios exhibited contrasting relationships with leaf nitrogen concentration. Discussion: Overall, these results allow us to refine selections of productive genotypes based on site conditions and site-specific relationships with physiological parameters to better match Populus taxa with sites and landowner objectives.
