Superconductivity in the Parent Infinite-Layer Nickelate NdNiO 2

We report evidence for superconductivity with onset temperatures up to 11 K in thin films of the infinite-layer nickelate parent compound NdNiO 2 . A combination of oxide molecular beam epitaxy and atomic hydrogen reduction yields samples with high crystallinity and low residual resistivities, a substantial fraction of which exhibit superconducting transitions. We survey a large series of samples with a variety of techniques, including electrical transport, scanning transmission electron microscopy, x-ray absorption spectroscopy, and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering, to investigate the possible origins of superconductivity. We propose that superconductivity could be intrinsic to the undoped infinite-layer nickelates but suppressed by disorder due to a possibly sign-changing order parameter, a finding which would necessitate a reconsideration of the nickelate phase diagram. Another possible hypothesis is that the parent materials can be hole doped from randomly dispersed apical oxygen atoms, which would suggest an alternative pathway for achieving superconductivity.

The active CGCG 077-102 NED02 galaxy within the Abell 2063 galaxy cluster

Context.Within the framework of investigating the link between the central super massive black holes in the cores of galaxies and the galaxies themselves, we detected a variable X-ray source in the center of CGCG 077-102 NED02, which is a member of the CGCG 077-102 galaxy pair within the Abell 2063 cluster of galaxies. Aims.Our goal is to combine X-ray and optical data to demonstrate that this object harbors an active super massive black hole in its core, and to relate this to the dynamical status of the galaxy pair within the Abell 2063 cluster. Methods.We usedChandraandXMM-Newtonarchival data to derive the X-ray spectral shape and variability. We also obtained optical spectroscopy to detect the expected emission lines that are typically found in active galactic nuclei. Finally, we used public ZTF imaging data to investigate the optical variability. Results.There is no evidence of multiple X-ray sources or extended components within CGCG 077-102 NED02. Single X-ray spectral models fit the source well. We detect significant, nonrandom inter-observation 0.5–10 keV X-ray flux variabilities, for observations separated by ∼4 days for short-term variations and by up to ∼700 days for long-term variations. Optical spectroscopy points toward a passive galaxy for CGCG 077-102 NED01 and a Seyfert for CGCG 077-102 NED02. The classification of CGCG 077-102 NED02 is also consistent with its X-ray luminosity of over 10 42 erg s −1 . We do not detect short-term variability in the optical ZTF light curves. However, we find a significant long-term stochastic variability in theg-band that can be well described by the damped random walk model with a best-fit characteristic damping timescale ofτ DRW = 30 −12 +28 days. Finally, the CGCG 077-102 galaxy pair is deeply embedded within the Abell 2063 potential, with a long enough history within this massive structure to have been affected by the influence of this cluster for a long time. Conclusions.Our observations point toward a moderately massive black hole in the center of CGCG 077-102 NED02 of ∼10 6 M ⊙ . As compared to another similar pair in the literature, CGCG 077-102 NED02 is not heavily obscured, perhaps because of the surrounding intracluster medium ram-pressure stripping.

Understanding the morphology and chemical activity of model ZrO x /Au (111) catalysts for CO 2 hydrogenation

In this study, the growth of ZrO x on Au (111) was investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and synchrotron-based ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS). Nanostructures of ZrO x (x= 1,2) at the sub-monolayer (≤ 0.3 ML) level were prepared by vapor depositing Zr metal onto Au (111) followed by oxidation with O 2 or CO 2 . At low coverages of the admetal (< 0.05 ML), the formed ZrO x nanostructures were dispersed randomly on the terraces and steps of the Au(111) substrate. Strong oxide-metal interactions prevented the formation of islands of zirconia. The ZrO x nanostructures displayed a reactivity towards CO 2 and H 2 not seen for bulk zirconia. C 1 s AP-XPS results indicated that CO 2 molecules adsorbed on Zr/ZrO x /Au(111) surfaces could undergo partial decomposition on Zr (CO 2 , gas → CO gas + O ads ), or react with oxygen sites from ZrO x to yield carbonates (Zr-CO 3, ads ). Further, after exposing ZrO 2 /Au (111) surfaces to 1:3 mixtures of CO 2 :H 2 , the formation of HCOO, CO 3 , and CH 3 O was detected in AP-XP spectra. These chemical species decomposed at temperatures in the range of 400-600 K, making them possible reaction intermediates for methanol synthesis.

Grain Boundary Segregation Suppresses Local Short‐Range Ordering in Nanocrystalline High‐Entropy Alloys

Multi-principal-element alloys like high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have potential applications in many engineering fields due to their unique mechanical/functional properties. While HEAs are generally considered random solid solutions, recent studies revealed that they are prone to short-range-ordering (SRO) due to the complex multi-pair-wise interactions among the constituent elements. Meanwhile, SROs' evolution can sometimes be deleterious, and it is necessary to have control over their evolution. Examining the AlCoCrFe-Zr model alloy, long-range ordering occurs following the expectation of enthalpic predictions. Advanced characterization techniques—transmission electron microscopy, high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction/pair distribution function, and atom probe tomography, reveal that SRO is suppressed in as-milled and GB-decorated NC-(AlCoCrFe)100-xZrx (x = 0–1.5 atomic %). Warren-Cowley coefficient calculations are further used to validate the suppression of SRO. Besides the low segregation enthalpies of Cr, Fe, and Zr, and the high-mixing enthalpy of Cr and Fe, the short diffusion path to GBs due to high-GB density in the NC-HEAs and the higher energy state of the GBs than the matrix promotes GB-segregation that further alters the matrix chemistry and consequently disfavors SRO formation within the matrix. Despite the GB-segregation of Cr, Fe, and Zr, the matrices and GBs remain in a random solid solution.

Intercalation-Induced Amorphization Boosts Aqueous Magnesium-Ion Storage

The design of aqueous battery cathode materials that can store divalent ions with high capacity and satisfactory reversibility is of great technical importance and challenge. Here, we report that divalent Mg 2+ storage is facilitated by an intercalation-induced amorphization of vanadate electrode materials. Electrokinetic analyses and in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction and absorption spectroscopy collectively demonstrate that vanadate layered materials (Li–V 3 O 8 ) undergo a structural transformation to amorphization induced by Mg 2+ intercalation, and a reversible restoration of crystalline structure upon Mg 2+ deintercalation. Debye scattering simulations suggest that intercalation-induced turbostratic disorder, especially random rotations, translational shifts, oscillatory motions, or varied interlayer spacing of adjacent V–O molecular layers, could be responsible for the observed amorphization. The highly distorted local structure, in turn, facilitates Mg 2+ intercalation across the vanadate electrode materials, responsible for nearly 3/7 of the total Mg 2+ ions intercalated. The study presented reveals an intriguing relationship between ion transport and the reversible amorphization-to-crystallization dynamics it induces, opening a paradigm for designing advanced aqueous battery electrodes.

Long-range magnetic order with disordered spin orientations in a high-entropy antiferromagnet

Disorder in magnetic systems typically suppresses long-range order, promoting short-range states such as spin glasses and magnetic clusters. This is particularly prominent in high-entropy materials, characterized by the random distributions of local magnetic entities and exchange interactions. However, in rare exceptions, long-range magnetic order can persist in high-entropy systems, while the microscopic characters and underlying mechanisms remain elusive, especially the magnetic behaviors of individual elements. Here, combining neutron diffraction and resonant soft x-ray scattering, we have conducted an element-specific investigation into the magnetic order of a high-entropy honeycomb-lattice van der Waals material (Mn 1/4 Fe 1/4 Co 1/4 Ni 1/4 )PS 3 . Despite significant atomic disorder, long-range zigzag antiferromagnetic order is observed below 72 K, with all four transition-metal elements participating in a unified phase transition. However, the spin orientations of various elements are distinct, attributed to the competition between single-ion anisotropies and exchange interactions. Our findings showcase a novel form of long-range magnetic order with disordered spin orientations, which is synergically stabilized by distinct magnetic elements in a high entropy magnet, offering a new paradigm for understanding complex magnetic systems.

Microstructural and rheological training and memory of nanocolloidal soft glasses under cyclic shear

An intrinsic feature of disordered and out-of-equilibrium materials, such as glasses, is the dependence of their properties on their history. An important example is rheological memory, in which disordered solids obtain properties based on their deformation history. Here, in this study, we employ x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy with in situ rheometry to characterize memory formation in a nanocolloidal soft glass due to cyclic shear. During a cycle, particles undergo irreversible displacements composed of a combination of shear-induced diffusion and heterogeneous, residual strain fields. At lower shear amplitudes, the displacements resemble a random walk in which the directions in each cycle are independent of those in preceding cycles, while at high amplitude, the irreversible displacements in consecutive cycles become correlated. The magnitudes of the displacements decrease with each cycle before reaching a steady state where the microstructure has been trained to achieve enhanced reversibility even at shear amplitudes well above yielding and despite the presence of thermal fluctuations. At amplitudes below and near yielding, these decreases are monotonic, while well above yielding, they are nonmonotonic, suggesting evidence of shear banding. Accompanying this microstructural training are corresponding decreases in the dissipation during each cycle and the magnitude of the residual stress toward steady-state values. Memory of the training is revealed by measurements in which the amplitude of the shear is changed after steady state is reached. The magnitude of the particle displacements, as well as the dissipation and the change in residual stress, vary nonmonotonically with the new shear amplitude, having minima near the training amplitude, thereby revealing correlated microscopic and macroscopic signatures of memory.

Distinguishing Elements at the Sub‐Nanometer Scale on the Surface of a High Entropy Alloy

Materials in crystalline form possess translational symmetry (TS) when the unit cell is repeated in real space with long- and short-range orders. The periodic potential in the crystal regulates the electron wave function and results in unique band structures, which further define the physical properties of the materials. Amorphous materials lack TS due to the randomization of distances and arrangements between atoms, causing the electron wave function to lack a well-defined momentum. High entropy materials provide another way to break the TS by randomizing the potential strength at periodic atomic sites. The local elemental distribution has a great impact on physical properties in high entropy materials. It is critical to distinguish elements at the sub-nanometer scale to uncover the correlations between the elemental distribution and the material properties. Here, the use of synchrotron X-ray scanning tunneling microscopy (SX-STM) with sub-nm scale resolution in identifying elements on a high entropy alloy (HEA) surface is demonstrated. By examining the elementally sensitive X-ray absorption spectra with an STM tip to enhance the spatial resolution, the elemental distribution on an HEA's surface at a sub-nm scale is extracted. In conclusion, these results open a pathway towards quantitatively understanding high entropy materials and their material properties.

DEM Modeling and Validation of Pebble Bed Packing Using Chrono::GPU

Accurate prediction of pebble packing structure is important for pebble bed reactors because the spatial distribution of void fraction directly affects coolant flow, pressure drop, heat transfer, and neutronic behavior. However, experimentally validated DEM studies that directly evaluate local void-fraction structure in reactor-relevant pebble beds remain limited. In this work, the pebble bed experiment conducted at Missouri University of Science and Technology is simulated using the graphics processing unit (GPU)-based discrete element method (DEM) code Chrono::GPU. The study focuses on evaluating the ability of Chrono::GPU to reproduce the packing arrangement and void-fraction distribution of a randomly packed spherical pebble bed. The DEM results are first verified against established radial void-fraction correlations, including the Mueller and Vortmeyer-Schuster models, to assess the predicted bulk porosity, near-wall behavior, and oscillatory packing structure. The simulation is then verified against reference DEM data and validated against gamma-ray computed tomography (CT) experimental data at three axial locations. The Chrono::GPU results reproduce the main features of the experimental packing, including the high void fraction near the wall, the first near-wall trough, and the damped oscillatory radial profile caused by wall-induced ordering. Quantitative comparison with DEM data and the CT-based radial profiles shows good agreement, with mean absolute errors on the order of 0.07 and root-mean-square errors below 0.09 for the averaged profiles. These results demonstrate that Chrono::GPU can accurately capture the void-fraction structure of spherical pebble beds and provides a reliable DEM framework for future pebble bed reactor packing, recycling, and thermal-hydraulic studies.

Mechanisms of Metal Additive-Induced Ordering During SNIPS Membrane Formation

Isoporous membranes can be fabricated by combining self-assembly with nonsolvent induced phase separation (SNIPS) using an amphiphilic block copolymer like polystyrene-b-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (SV). Poly(4-vinylpyridine) (V) is known to complex with metal salts, which are hypothesized to stabilize solution ordering and preserve structure during casting. We explored how the molar ratio of metal additive to the poly(4-vinylpyridine) block affected the final membrane morphology via scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Dynamic light scattering (DLS), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and in situ grazing-incidence SAXS were used to track changes in solution ordering and chain conformation as a function of the molar ratio of the additive to the V block. Additives induced aggregation, promoted the formation of more compact conformations in solution, and facilitated micelle ordering onto lattices at optimal ratios. Furthermore, these experimental results were supported by random phase approximation calculations, which helped explain how the thermodynamic order–disorder transition shifts with additive binding strength. Stronger additive–polymer interactions reduced the block copolymer volume fraction required for ordering in solution, allowing ordered domains to form at lower polymer concentrations.

X-ray thermal diffuse scattering as a texture-robust temperature diagnostic for dynamically compressed solids

We present a model of x-ray thermal diffuse scattering (TDS) from a cubic polycrystal with an arbitrary crystallographic texture, based on the classic approach of Warren [B. E. Warren, Acta Crystallogr. 6, 803 (1953)]. We compare the predictions of our model with femtosecond x-ray diffraction patterns gathered from ambient and dynamically compressed rolled copper foils obtained at the High Energy Density instrument of the European X-Ray Free-Electron Laser facility and find that the texture-aware TDS model yields more accurate results than does the conventional powder model owed to Warren. Nevertheless, we further show: with sufficient angular detector coverage, the TDS signal is largely unchanged by sample orientation and in all cases strongly resembles the signal from a perfectly random powder; shot-to-shot fluctuations in the TDS signal resulting from grain-sampling statistics are at the percent level, in stark contrast to the fluctuations in the Bragg-peak intensities (which are over an order of magnitude greater); and TDS is largely unchanged even following texture evolution caused by compression-induced plastic deformation. We conclude that TDS is robust against texture variation, making it a flexible temperature diagnostic applicable just as well to off-the-shelf commercial foils as to ideal powders.

Texture Evolution of Plated Lithium in Anode-Free Solid-State Batteries

Here, this study investigates lithium plating texture in anode-free solid-state batteries using synchrotron-based X-ray diffraction. Conventional methods are limited by lithium’s low electron density and softness, which hinders direct interrogation in anode-free solid-state batteries. Results reveal that lithium plating texture is influenced by temperature and current density. Under mild conditions, lithium exhibited a ⟨110⟩ fiber texture. However, higher current densities and elevated temperatures led to a more randomized orientation, suggesting a dependence on plating conditions. The results highlight how the operating and processing conditions for lithium metal can influence the texture of lithium metal and reversible operation.

Formation of Disordered Cocontinuous Phases by Randomly Linked Star Copolymers

Cocontinuous polymeric nanostructures have garnered significant interest due to their ability to combine different properties of two separate polymer domains. Randomly linked copolymer networks have proven to be especially robust for formation of disordered cocontinuous phases across wide composition ranges (≈30 wt % or more). While theoretical treatments of microphase-separated networks have focused primarily on the role of random elastic forces imposed on the self-assembled nanostructures by virtue of the network architecture, experimental studies seeking to disentangle these contributions from other potential effects, such as dispersity in preferred interfacial curvatures, have been scarce. To provide insight into this matter, we here study the self-assembly of randomly linked star copolymers (RSCs), constructed by linking premade polymer arms of polystyrene (PS) and poly(d,l-lactide) (PLA) using 3, 4, and 6-functional connectors. This architecture yields similar distributions of preferred curvature as networks made using corresponding difunctional strands, but lacks the elastic forces imposed by a network architecture. Gravimetry and small-angle X-ray scattering, coupled with scanning electron microscopy, were performed to identify the percolation of PS/PLA RSCs. Remarkably, the 4-arm RSC system exhibited a disordered cocontinuous window of ≈25 wt %, indicating that dispersity in preferred curvature can in some cases be sufficient to robustly drive formation of this morphology. However, the other RSC architectures showed smaller cocontinuous ranges, which we interpret in terms of the influence of homopolymer stars in the 3-arm case and the narrower distribution of preferred interfacial curvatures in the 6-arm case. Finally, thin layers of interconnected porous PS were achieved by solution-processing, suggesting that RSCs have the potential to serve as a robust and easily processable cocontinuous polymeric nanomaterials in both bulk and membrane geometries.

The Evaluation of Machine Learning Techniques for Isotope Identification Contextualized by Training and Testing Spectral Similarity

Precise gamma-ray spectral analysis is crucial in high-stakes applications, such as nuclear security. Research efforts toward implementing machine learning (ML) approaches for accurate analysis are limited by the resemblance of the training data to the testing scenarios. The underlying spectral shape of synthetic data may not perfectly reflect measured configurations, and measurement campaigns may be limited by resource constraints. Consequently, ML algorithms for isotope identification must maintain accurate classification performance under domain shifts between the training and testing data. To this end, four different classifiers (Ridge, Random Forest, Extreme Gradient Boosting, and Multilayer Perceptron) were trained on the same dataset and evaluated on twelve other datasets with varying standoff distances, shielding, and background configurations. A tailored statistical approach was introduced to quantify the similarity between the training and testing configurations, which was then related to the predictive performance. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests revealed that the OVR-wrapped XGB significantly outperformed the other algorithms, with confidence levels of 99.0% or above for the 133Ba, 60Co, 137Cs, and 152Eu sources. The findings from this work are significant as they outline techniques to promote the development of robust ML-based approaches for isotope identification.

Role of Selenium in CdZnTeSe as a Defect Engineering Agent

Cadmium zinc telluride (CdZnTe) with 10 atomic % Zn has been the material of choice for room-temperature semiconductor compact X- and gamma-ray detector applications for over three decades. Despite its commercial success as the most desirable room-temperature semiconductor radiation detection material, CdZnTe (CZT) suffers from a lack of compositional homogeneity on both the micro- and macroscales and the presence of high concentrations of performance-limiting defects such as subgrain boundary networks (dislocation walls) and secondary phases (Te-rich inclusions). Random distributions of these defects in the CZT matrix result in the spatial inhomogeneity of the material’s charge-transport properties. The recently discovered quaternary Cd x Zn 1-x Te 1-y Se y (CZTS) has experienced remarkable advances in its material properties, with highly reduced defects and higher compositional homogeneity. This book chapter focuses on the presence of performance-limiting defects in CZT that have thus far hindered the yield and cost of high-quality detectors and restricted their widespread deployment for a variety of potential applications, particularly for their use as large-volume gamma detectors, where the demands on material perfection are significantly greater. This chapter also provides an overview of the recent developments in the quaternary material CZTS, particularly the effects of selenium (Se) in the CZTS matrix on the defect engineering of the quaternary alloy material and the advancement of CZTS as a potential next-generation detector operable at room temperature.

Nuclear β − -decay with statistical de-excitation

he accurate description of nuclear β − -decay has far-reaching consequences for applications spanning nuclear reactors to the creation of heavy elements in astrophysical environments. We present the nuclear particle spectra associated with the β -decay of neutron-rich nuclei calculated with the well benchmarked coupled Quasi-particle Random Phase Approximation and Hauser–Feshbach (QRPA+HF) model. This approach begins with the population of the daughter nucleus via semi-microscopic Gamow-Teller or First-Forbidden strength distributions (QRPA) and follows the statistical de-excitation (HF) until the initial available excitation energy is exhausted. At each stage of de-excitation the emission by neutrons and $γ$-rays is considered obeying quantum mechanical selection rules. For completeness we also provide parsed Auger and Internal Conversion (IC) electron spectra from Evaluated Nuclear Data Files (ENDF). Our results are tabulated and provided in parsable ASCII formatted tables that are suitable for inclusion in various applications.

Prediction of the Cu oxidation state from EELS and XAS spectra using supervised machine learning

Abstract Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) provide detailed information about bonding, distributions and locations of atoms, and their coordination numbers and oxidation states. However, analysis of XAS/EELS data often relies on matching an unknown experimental sample to a series of simulated or experimental standard samples. This limits analysis throughput and the ability to extract quantitative information from a sample. In this work, we have trained a random forest model capable of predicting the oxidation state of copper based on its L-edge spectrum. Our model attains an R 2 score of 0.85 and a root mean square error of 0.24 on simulated data. It has also successfully predicted experimental L-edge EELS spectra taken in this work and XAS spectra extracted from the literature. We further demonstrate the utility of this model by predicting simulated and experimental spectra of mixed valence samples generated by this work. This model can be integrated into a real-time EELS/XAS analysis pipeline on mixtures of copper-containing materials of unknown composition and oxidation state. By expanding the training data, this methodology can be extended to data-driven spectral analysis of a broad range of materials.

3D Deep Learning Joint Inversion of Active Seismic Full Waveform and Passive Seismic Traveltime Data for Reservoir Imaging and Uncertainty Quantification

Here, we present deep learning (DL) networks for three-dimensional (3D) joint inversion of active seismic full waveform and passive seismic traveltime data to image reservoirs and their properties and quantify imaging uncertainties. Active seismic full-waveform data can provide high-resolution monitoring images but are collected only intermittently because of their high acquisition cost. In contrast, passive seismic data can be gathered at relatively low cost between regular active surveys, although their imaging quality can be compromised by factors such as low signal-to-noise ratios and limited ray coverage of the target. Although these datasets are routinely acquired together at CO 2 storage sites, their combined inversion within a 3D DL framework has not been previously demonstrated. To our knowledge, this is the first study to address this gap, combining the strength of both data types. For efficient data storage and DL training with large 3D seismic datasets, we use a 3D data matrix in which a random number of passive seismic traveltime data are stored as parabolic envelopes using one-hot encoding and a 3D full-waveform data matrix in which multiple shot gathers are summed. Two network architectures are evaluated: a single-encoder U-Net for single-data type inversion and a dual-encoder U-Net for joint inversion of active and passive seismic data. We also evaluate the single-encoder U-Net for joint inversion by concatenating full-waveform data and traveltime data. We propose a systematic approach for selecting an optimal dropout rate that balances regularization during training and Monte Carlo dropout-based uncertainty quantification during prediction by examining the correlation coefficient between standard deviation and prediction error, along with the training misfit, across a range of dropout rates. 3D DL inversion experiments include five different network configurations, with evaluations under ideal, noisy and dropout-enabled conditions. Both model and data uncertainties are assessed, as well as their combined effects. Across all conditions, the networks consistently predict accurate CO 2 saturation models with low prediction errors, such as a structural similarity index of 0.993 and CO 2 difference of 1.1%. Uncertainty estimates show strong spatial correlation with prediction errors, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed dropout selection approach. The results demonstrate that our DL approach, utilizing compact data representations and appropriate uncertainty quantification, yields accurate subsurface images under various inversion conditions and provides valuable insights into the reliability of predictions.
