Trapped-ion Quantum Network Real-time Control Software (QuantNet Real-time Control) v0.1.0

This real-time control software for the QUANT-NET testbed is built upon the ARTIQ (Advanced Real-Time Infrastructure for Quantum physics) ecosystem. A central contribution of this work is the software's modular and reusable architecture, which facilitates the creation of hierarchical experimental control sequences by combining precomposed sequences and subsequences as building blocks within the framework.

Evaluate data lake design for the accelerator control system

Increasing precision in automation for modern particle accelerators not only creates a requirement to gather data from all devices but also demands scalable and high-performance data infrastructure with the capability of handling vast incoming device data. A well architected data lake is suitable for such a system which integrates real-time data acquisition, transient data caching, and long-term storage. This paper evaluates data lake architecture for an Accelerator Control System (ACS), focusing on two critical components of a data lake, data cache and long-term storage.

Analysis of Tank 38H (HTF-38-24-53, -56) and Tank 43H (HTF-43-24-54, -55) Samples for Support of the Enrichment Control and Corrosion Control Programs

Savannah River National Laboratory analyzed samples from Tank 38H and Tank 43H to support the Enrichment Control Program (ECP) and Corrosion Control Program (CCP). The results indicate the concentrations of most soluble species in the Tank 38H surface sample increased from the previous Tank 38H surface sample. The current Tank 38H subsurface sample shows similar Na, free hydroxide, and anions in comparison to the previous subsurface sample. However, the 38H subsurface sample shows lower concentrations of Al, Ca, Fe, Mn, and Si in comparison to the previous Tank 38H subsurface sample. Measurement of the wt.% insoluble solids in the Tank 38H subsurface sample and associated uncertainty analysis indicates that the calculated average wt.% insoluble solids is 0.45 ± 0.75 wt.%. Significant differences in the concentrations of major components between the Tank 38H surface and subsurface samples indicate significant stratification of solution species between these two locations within Tank 38H.

Analysis of Tank 38H (HTF-38-25-36, -32) and Tank 43H (HTF-43-25-33, -35) Samples for Support of the Enrichment Control and Corrosion Control Programs

Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) analyzed samples from Tank 38H and Tank 43H to support the Enrichment Control Program (ECP) and Corrosion Control Program (CCP). The results indicate the concentrations of most soluble species in the Tank 38H surface sample are similar to the previous Tank 38H surface sample. The current Tank 38H subsurface sample shows similar Na, free hydroxide, and anions in comparison to the previous subsurface sample. The current Tank 38H subsurface sample appears brown in color. Measurement of the wt.% insoluble solids in the Tank 38H subsurface sample and associated uncertainty analysis indicates that the calculated average wt.% insoluble solids is 5.5 ± 3.6 wt.%. Significant differences in the concentrations of major components between the Tank 38H surface and subsurface samples indicate stratification of solution species between these two locations within the Tank 38H. The current Tank 43H surface sample is ~ 10% diluted versus the previous Tank 43H surface sample and the Tank 43H subsurface sample is similar in composition to the previous Tank 43H subsurface sample. Information provided by SRMC on tank additions since the last ECP sampling indicates that a total of about 4,062 gallons of water was added to Tank 43H. This addition could account for the observed relatively small dilution of ~ 10% in the Tank 43H surface sample. Similar solution compositions measured in the current Tank 43H surface and subsurface samples indicate a minimal stratification within the tank.

Experimental Study for Validation of Resilient Response of Controls - Thrust 2 Controls Assessment

The focus of this project is to design, execute, and analyze experiments around resilience response. As part of the Resilience through Data-Driven, Intelligently Designed Control (RD2C) initiative, this project builds upon the previously designed control algorithms and experiments. It designs detailed uses cases to test RD2C-developed mitigation schemes in specific realistic scenarios, analyze and save the measurement data sets. Having a high-confidence and consistent data set is crucial for identifying relevant metrics to describe the system resilience in specific real-life-like scenarios of power grid operation.

Analysis of Tank 38H (HTF-38-26-16, -17), Tank 43H (HTF 43-26-18, -19) and Tank 22 (HTF-22-26-20, -21) Samples for Support of the Enrichment Control and Corrosion Control Programs

Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) analyzed samples from Tank 38H, Tank 43H and Tank 22H to support the Enrichment Control Program (ECP) and Corrosion Control Program (CCP). The results indicate the concentrations of most soluble species in the Tank 38H surface sample are ~ 76% of the concentrations in the previous Tank 38H surface sample. The current Tank 38H subsurface sample is a clear solution with soluble species that are ~ 70% of the concentrations in the previous Tank 38H subsurface. Significant differences in the concentrations of major components between the current Tank 38H surface and subsurface samples indicate stratification of solution species between these two locations within Tank 38H.

Automatic frequency control of voltage-controlled oscillators

Optical-capacitive coupling is used for isolation of control voltages, such as the high-voltage level of a klystron control electrode that is not referenced to ground, to serve as error voltages referenced to system ground so that the magnitude and sense of correction may be transferred.
