Mesoscopic structure of mixed type domain walls in multiaxial ferroelectrics

The structure of a 180° uncharged rotational domain wall in a multiaxial ferroelectric film is studied in the framework of an analytical Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire (LGD) approach. Finite element modeling (FEM) is used to solve numerically the system of the coupled nonlinear Euler-Lagrange (EL) second-order differential equations for two components of polarization. We show that the structure of the domain wall and corresponding metastable or stable phase of the film are controlled by a single parameter—the dimensionless ferroelectric anisotropy factor μ. We fitted the static profile of a solitary domain wall, calculated by FEM, with kinklike functions for polarization components, and extracted the five μ-dependent parameters from the fitting to FEM curves. The surprisingly high accuracy of the fitting results for two polarization components in the entire μ range allows us to conclude that the analytical functions, which are trial functions in the direct variational method, can be treated as a high-accuracy variational solution of the static EL equations. We further derive exact two-component analytical solutions of the static EL equations for a polydomain 180° domain structure in a multiaxial ferroelectric film. Using these, we derive analytical expressions for the system free energy and analyze its dependence on the film thickness and boundary conditions at the film surfaces. The single-domain state is ground for zero polarization derivative at the surfaces, while the polydomain states minimize the system energy for zero polarization at the surfaces. Counterintuitively, the energy of the polydomain states split into two levels, “0” and “1,” for zero polarization at the surfaces, and each of the levels contains a large number of close-energy sublevels, whose structure is characterized by a different number and type of domain walls. The analytical solutions can become a useful tool for Bayesian analysis of high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy images in ferroelectric films.

Spontaneous Creation of Circularly Polarized Photons in Chiral Astrophysical Systems

This work establishes a relation between chiral anomalies in curved spacetimes and the radiative content of the gravitational field. In particular, we show that a flux of circularly polarized gravitational waves triggers the spontaneous creation of photons with net circular polarization from the quantum vacuum. Using waveform catalogs, we identify precessing binary black holes as astrophysical configurations that emit such gravitational radiation and then solve the fully nonlinear Einstein’s equations with numerical relativity to evaluate the net effect. The quantum amplitude for a merger is comparable to the Hawking emission rate of the final black hole and small to be directly observed. However, the implications for the inspiral of binary neutron stars could be more prominent, as argued on symmetry grounds.

Light-induced transitions of polar state and domain morphology of photoferroelectric nanoparticles

Using the Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire approach, we study light-induced phase transitions, evolution of polar state and domain morphology in photo-ferroelectric nanoparticles (NPs). Light exposure increases the free carrier density near the NP surface and may in turn induce phase transitions from the nonpolar paraelectric to the polar ferroelectric phase. Using the uniaxial photo-ferroelectric Sn 2 P 2 S 6 as an example, here we show that visible light exposure induces the appearance and vanishing of striped, labyrinthine or curled domains and changes in the polarization switching hysteresis loop shape from paraelectric curves to double, pinched and single loops, as well as the shifting in the position of the tricritical point. Furthermore, we demonstrate that an ensemble of non-interacting photo-ferroelectric NPs may exhibit superparaelectric-like features at the tricritical point, such as strongly frequency-dependent giant piezoelectric and dielectric responses, which can potentially be exploited for piezoelectric applications.

Enhanced electro-osmosis in propylene carbonate salt solutions

Properties of solid–liquid interfaces and surface charge characteristics mediate ionic and molecular transport through porous systems, affecting many processes such as separations. Herein, we report experiments designed to probe the electrochemical properties of solid–liquid interfaces using a model system of a single polyethylene terephthalate (PET) pore in contact with aqueous and propylene carbonate solutions of LiClO 4 . First, the existence and polarity of surface charges were inferred from current–voltage curves recorded when a pore was placed in contact with a LiClO4 concentration gradient. Second, the electro-osmotic transport of uncharged polystyrene particles through the PET pore provided information on the polarity and the magnitude of the pore walls’ zeta potential. Our experiments show that the PET pores become effectively positively charged when in contact with LiClO 4 solutions in propylene carbonate, even though in aqueous LiClO 4 , the same pores are negatively charged. Additionally, the electro-osmotic velocity of the particles revealed a significantly higher magnitude of the positive zeta potential of the pores in propylene carbonate compared to the magnitude of the negative zeta potential in water. The presented methods of probing the properties of solid–liquid interfaces are expected to be applicable to a wide variety of solid and liquid systems.

Pseudospin Paramagnons and the Superconducting Dome in Magic Angle Twisted Bilayer Graphene

We present a theory of superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene in which attraction is generated between electrons on the same honeycomb sublattice when the system is close to a sublattice polarization instability. The resulting Cooper pairs are spin-polarized valley singlets. Because the sublattice polarizability is mainly contributed by interband fluctuations, superconductivity occurs over a wide range of filling fraction. It is suppressed by (i) applying a sublattice polarizing field (generated by an aligned BN substrate) or (ii) changing moiré band filling to favor valley polarization. The enhanced intrasublattice attraction close to sublattice polarization instability is analogous to enhanced like-spin attraction in liquid 3 He near the melting curve and the enhanced valley-singlet repulsion close to valley-polarization instabilities is analogous to enhanced spin-singlet repulsion in metals that are close to a ferromagnetic instability. Here, we comment on the relationship between our pseudospin paramagnon model and the rich phenomenology of superconductivity in twisted bilayer and multilayer graphene.

BVR{sub c}I{sub c} Observations, Third-body Orbital Study, and Analysis of the UV Leo-type, Pre-W UMA Binary V642 Virginis

V642 Vir is a polar spotted, well-detached, UV Leo-type, low-mass, pre-WUMa (T1 ~ 4250K, ~K6V) eclipsing binary. It was observed in 2020 April, May, and June at the Dark Sky Observatory in North Carolina, USA with the 0.81 m reflector of Appalachian State University. A total of 88 timings were used in our 22-year period study which included 12 Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) timings. The O - C plots show a low-amplitude oscillation of residuals that points to the existence of an orbiting third body, a dwarf of minimum mass, 0.15 M {sub ⊙} in an eccentric orbit (e = 0.41), with an orbital period of 20.07 yr. The odd light curves of V642 Virginis indicate that it has polar spots similar to UV Leo and the recently published V1023 Per. Its present large polar spot region indicates that it must have a strong magnetic field and that it is synchronously rotating. The BVR{sub c}I{sub c} simultaneous Wilson–Devinney Program solution gives a detached binary (primary and secondary components are underfilling their respective Roche Lobes, with 76% and 78% fill outs respectively). The cool spot region models near the pole of the primary component (centered at 10° colatitude) and is angled toward the secondary component. Its large radius (68°) and T-fact (T{sub spot}/T{sub surface} = 0.69) also attest to the conclusion of the strength of the magnetic field. The small ΔT in the components (~318 K) and mass ratio near unity (0.9542 ± 0.0005) show that the stars are similar in spectral type (secondary ~K9V). The inclination is high, ~86.87 ± 0.04°, yet there is no time of constant light due to the two stars’ essentially equal radii.

Hyperdimensional Imaging Contrast Using an Optical Fiber

Fluorescence properties of a molecule can be used to study the structural and functional nature of biological processes. Physical properties, including fluorescence lifetime, emission spectrum, emission polarization, and others, help researchers probe a molecule, produce desired effects, and infer causes and consequences. Correlative imaging techniques such as hyperdimensional imaging microscopy (HDIM) combine the physical properties and biochemical states of a fluorophore. Here we present a fiber-based imaging system that can generate hyper-dimensional contrast by combining multiple fluorescence properties into a single fluorescence lifetime decay curve. Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) with controlled excitation polarization and temporally dispersed emission can generate a spectrally coded, polarization-filtered lifetime distribution for a pixel. This HDIM scheme generates a better contrast between different molecules than that from individual techniques. This setup uses only a single detector and is simpler to implement, modular, cost-efficient, and adaptable to any existing FLIM microscope. We present higher contrast data from Arabidopsis thaliana epidermal cells based on intrinsic anthocyanin emission properties under multiphoton excitation. This work lays the foundation for an alternative hyperdimensional imaging system and demonstrates that contrast-based imaging is useful to study cellular heterogeneity in biological samples.

Detecting the stochastic gravitational wave background from massive gravity with pulsar timing arrays

We explore the potential of pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) such as NANOGrav, EPTA, and PPTA to detect the stochastic gravitational wave background in theories of massive gravity. In general relativity, the function describing the dependence of the correlation between the arrival times of signals from two pulsars on the angle between them is known as the Hellings-Downs curve. We compute the analogous overlap reduction function for massive gravity, including the additional polarization states and the correction due to the mass of the graviton, and compare the result with the Hellings-Downs curve. The primary result is a complete analytical form for the analog Hellings-Downs curve, providing a starting point for future numerical studies aimed at a detailed comparison between PTA data and the predictions of massive gravity. We study both the massless limit and the stationary limit as checks on our calculation, and discuss how our formalism also allows us to study the impact of massive spin-2 dark matter candidates on data from PTAs.

Dynamical electron correlation and the chemical bond. I. Covalent bonds in AH and AF (A = B–F)

Dynamical electron correlation has a major impact on the computed values of molecular properties and the energetics of molecular processes. This study focused on the effect of dynamical electron correlation on the spectroscopic constants ($R$ e , $ω$ e , $D$ e ), and potential energy curves, Δ$E$($R$), of the covalently bound AH and AF molecules, A = B–F. The changes in the spectroscopic constants (Δ$R$ e , Δ$ω$ e , Δ$D$ e ) caused by dynamical correlation are erratic and, at times, even surprising. These changes can be understood based on the dependence of the dynamical electron correlation energies of the AH and AF molecules as a function of the bond distance, i.e., Δ$E$ DEC ($R$). At large $R$, the magnitude of Δ$E$ DEC ($R$) increases nearly exponentially with decreasing $R$, but this increase slows as $R$ continues to decrease and, in many cases, even reverses at very short $R$. The changes in Δ$E$ DEC ($R$) in the region around $R$ e were as unexpected as they were surprising, e.g., distinct minima and maxima were found in the curves of Δ$E$ DEC ($R$) for the most polar molecules. The variations in Δ$E$ DEC ($R$) for $R$ ≲ $R$ e are directly correlated with major changes in the electronic structure of the molecules as revealed by a detailed analysis of the spin-coupled generalized valence bond wave function. In conclusion, the results reported here indicate that we have much to learn about the nature of dynamical electron correlation and its effect on chemical bonds and molecular properties and processes.

Interfacial magnetic characteristics of nearly compensated gadolinium iron garnet

Reports on spin Hall magnetoresistance, magnonic spin currents from thermal gradients, and spin transfertorque magnetic random-access memory using compensated ferrimagnets largely discuss bulk magnetization but lack consideration of depth profiles or interfacial characteristics. Here, magnetic and structural characterization of profiles and interfaces was performed for nearly compensated gadolinium iron garnet (GdIG) thin films. X-ray diffraction and reciprocal space maps show that sputter deposited GdIG on Si is polycrystalline with the desired cubic garnet phase, and GdIG on gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) is epitaxial with <0.06% compressive strain. Temperature-dependent magnetometry confirms the compensation temperatures of GGG/GdIG and Si/GdIG to be 285 and 260 K, respectively, both near room temperature. Interestingly, these measurements suggest the presence of unsaturated rare-earth moments, which result in a characteristic hysteresis between heating and cooling sequences in the magnetization-temperature curves at zero field. Depth-profile measurements from polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) indicate up to 91% volume fraction in GdIG on Si. At the interface, PNR reveals a region containing magnetized Fe-doped GGG, a low-density GdIG at the GGG/GdIG interface, and a thin magnetically dead layer at the Si/GdIG interface. Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy confirm the assessment of PNR. In conclusion, the magnetic characteristics of interfacial regions are attributed to intermixing of Fe-Ga at the GGG/GdIG interface and the presence of amorphous Fe-Si at the Si/GdIG interface.

The Great Markarian 421 Flare of 2010 February: Multiwavelength Variability and Correlation Studies

We report on variability and correlation studies using multiwavelength observations of the blazar Mrk 421 during the month of February, 2010 when an extraordinary flare reaching a level of ~27 Crab Units above 1 TeV was measured in very-highenergy (VHE) γ-rays with the VERITAS observatory. This is the highest flux state for Mrk 421 ever observed in VHE γ-rays. Data are analyzed from a coordinated campaign across multiple instruments including VHE γ-ray (VERITAS, MAGIC), high-energy (HE) γ-ray (Fermi-LAT), X-ray (Swift, RXTE, MAXI), optical (including the GASP-WEBT collaboration and polarization data) and radio (Mets¨ahovi, OVRO, UMRAO). Light curves are produced spanning multiple days before and after the peak of the VHE flare, including over several flare ‘decline’ epochs. The main flare statistics allow 2-minute time bins to be constructed in both the VHE and optical bands enabling a cross-correlation analysis that shows evidence for an optical lag of ~25–55 minutes, the first time-lagged correlation between these bands reported on such short timescales. Limits on the Doppler factor (δ & 33) and the size of the emission region (δ -1RB . 3.8 × 10 13 cm) are obtained from the fast variability observed by VERITAS during the main flare. Analysis of 10-minute-binned VHE and X-ray data over the decline epochs shows an extraordinary range of behavior in the flux-flux relationship: from linear to quadratic to lack of correlation to anti-correlation. Taken together, these detailed observations of an unprecedented flare seen in Mrk 421 are difficult to explain by the classic single-zone synchrotron self-Compton model.

The Multipolar Magnetic Field of the Millisecond Pulsar PSR J0030+0451

Modeling of the NICER X-ray waveform of the pulsar PSR J0030+0451, aimed at constraining the neutron star mass and radius, has inferred surface hot spots (the magnetic polar caps) that imply significantly nondipolar magnetic fields. To this end, we investigate magnetic field configurations that comprise offset dipole-plus-quadrupole components using a static vacuum field and force-free global magnetosphere models. Taking into account the compactness and observer angle values provided by Miller et al. and Riley et al., we compute geodesics from the observer plane to the polar caps to compute the resulting X-ray light curve. We explore, through Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques, the detailed magnetic field configurations that can reproduce the observed X-ray light curve and have discovered degeneracies, i.e., diverse field configurations, which can provide sufficient descriptions of the NICER X-ray waveforms. Having obtained the force-free field structures, we then compute the corresponding synchronous γ-ray light curves following Kalapotharakos et al.; these we compare to those obtained by Fermi-LAT, to provide models consistent with both the X-ray and the γ-ray data, thereby restricting further the multipole field parameters. An essential aspect of this approach is the proper computation of the relative phase between the synchronous X- and γ-ray light curves. We conclude with a discussion of the broader implications of our study.

KELT-9 b’s Asymmetric TESS Transit Caused by Rapid Stellar Rotation and Spin–Orbit Misalignment

KELT-9 b is an ultra-hot Jupiter transiting a rapidly rotating, oblate early-A-type star in a polar orbit. We model the effect of rapid stellar rotation on KELT-9 b’s transit light curve using photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite to constrain the planet’s true spin–orbit angle and to explore how KELT-9 b may be influenced by stellar gravity darkening. We constrain the host star’s equatorial radius to be 1.089 ± 0.017 times as large as its polar radius and its local surface brightness to vary by ∼38% between its hot poles and cooler equator. We model the stellar oblateness and surface brightness gradient and find that it causes the transit light curve to lack the usual symmetry around the time of minimum light. We take advantage of the light-curve asymmetry to constrain KELT-9 b’s true spin–orbit angle (87{sup ∘}{sub −11{sup ∘+10{sup {sup ∘}}}}), agreeing with Gaudi et al. that KELT-9 b is in a nearly polar orbit. We also apply a gravity-darkening correction to the spectral energy distribution model from Gaudi et al. and find that accounting for rapid rotation gives a better fit to available spectroscopy and yields a more reliable estimate for the star’s polar effective temperature.

Electric field and turbulence in global Braginskii simulations across the ASDEX Upgrade edge and scrape-off layer

Turbulence simulations in diverted geometry across the edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) of ASDEX Upgrade are performed with the GRILLIX code (Stegmeir et al 2019 Phys. Plasmas 26 052517). The underlying global (full-f) drift-reduced Braginskii model allows to concurrently study the self-consistent dynamics of the turbulence and the background as well as the evolution of toroidal and zonal flows. Different contributions to the radial electric field are identified. The dominant contribution on closed flux surfaces comes from the ion pressure gradient, due to the diamagnetic drift in the curved magnetic field. Large deviations can be induced, in particular, by the polarization particle flux, leading to zonal flows. The latter are driven by small-scale eddies, but do not exhibit much impact on the overall transport which is driven by ballooning modes at larger scales. Ion viscosity is found to be important in damping poloidal rotation through adjusting of the parallel velocity profile, but not via direct vorticity damping. The zonal flow drive peaks at the separatrix, where a strong shear layer forms due to the sheath-induced counter-propagating SOL flow, allowing for the formation of a transport barrier. The temperature profile across the separatrix is determined by the competition between cross-field transport and outflow in the SOL, the latter being largely controlled by the parallel heat conductivity.

The Simons Observatory: science goals and forecasts for the enhanced Large Aperture Telescope

We describe updated scientific goals for the wide-field, millimeter-wave survey that will be produced by the Simons Observatory (SO). Significant upgrades to the 6-meter SO Large Aperture Telescope (LAT) are expected to be complete by 2028, and will include a doubled mapping speed with 30,000 new detectors and an automated data reduction pipeline. In addition, a new photovoltaic array will supply most of the observatory's power. The LAT survey will cover about 60% of the sky at a regular observing cadence, with five times the angular resolution and ten times the map depth of the Planck satellite. The science goals are to: (1) determine the physical conditions in the early universe and constrain the existence of new light particles; (2) measure the integrated distribution of mass, electron pressure, and electron momentum in the late-time universe, and, in combination with optical surveys, determine the neutrino mass and the effects of dark energy via tomographic measurements of the growth of structure at redshifts z ≲ 3; (3) measure the distribution of electron density and pressure around galaxy groups and clusters, and calibrate the effects of energy input from galaxy formation on the surrounding environment; (4) produce a sample of more than 30,000 galaxy clusters, and more than 100,000 extragalactic millimeter sources, including regularly sampled AGN light-curves, to study these sources and their emission physics; (5) measure the polarized emission from magnetically aligned dust grains in our Galaxy, to study the properties of dust and the role of magnetic fields in star formation; (6) constrain asteroid regoliths, search for Trans-Neptunian Objects, and either detect or eliminate large portions of the phase space in the search for Planet 9; and (7) provide a powerful new window into the transient universe on time scales of minutes to years, concurrent with observations from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory of overlapping sky.

Anomalous polarization reversal in strained thin films of CuIn⁢P 2 ⁢S 6

Strain-induced transitions of polarization reversal in thin films of a ferrielectric CuIn⁢P 2 ⁢S 6 (CIPS) with ideally conductive electrodes are explored using the Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire approach with an eighth-order free energy expansion in polarization powers. Due to multiple potential wells, the height and position of which are temperature and strain dependent, the energy profiles of CIPS can flatten in the vicinity of the nonzero polarization states. Thereby, we reveal an unusually strong effect of a mismatch strain on the out-of-plane polarization reversal, hysteresis loop shape, dielectric susceptibility, and piezoelectric response of CIPS films. By varying the sign of the mismatch strain and its magnitude in a fairly narrow range, quasistatic hysteresisless paraelectric curves can transform into double, triple, and other types of pinched and single hysteresis loops. The strain effect on the polarization reversal is opposite, i.e., anomalous, in comparison with many other ferroelectric films, for which the out-of-plane remanent polarization and coercive field increase strongly for tensile strains and decrease or vanish for compressive strains. For definite values of temperature and mismatch strain, the low-frequency hysteresis loops of polarization may exhibit negative slope in a relatively narrow range of external field amplitude and frequency. The low-frequency susceptibility hysteresis loops, which correspond to the negative slope of polarization loops, contain only positive values, which can be giant in the entire range of field changes. In conclusion, the corresponding piezoresponse also reaches giant values, being maximal near coercive fields.

Electropolymerized-molecularly imprinted polymers (E-MIPS) as sensing elements for the detection of dengue infection

Here, a straightforward in situ detection method for dengue infection was demonstrated through the molecular imprinting of a dengue nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) epitope into an electropolymerized molecularly imprinted polyterthiophene (E-MIP) film sensor. The key enabling step in the sensor fabrication is based on an epitope imprinting strategy, in which short peptide sequences derived from the original target molecules were employed as the main template for detection and analysis. The formation of the E-MIP sensor films was facilitated using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and monitored in situ by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EC-QCM). Surface properties were analyzed using different techniques including atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and polarization modulation-infrared reflection-adsorption (PM-IRRAS). The standard calibration curve (R = 0.9830) was generated for the detection of the epitope, Ac-VHTWTEQYKFQ-NH 2 , with a linear range of 0.2 to 30 μg/mL and detection limit of 0.073 μg/mL. A separate calibration curve (R = 0.9786) was obtained using spiked buffered solutions of dengue NS1 protein, which resulted in a linear range of 0.2 to 10 μg/mL and a detection limit of 0.056 μg/mL. The fabricated E-MIP sensor exhibited long-term stability, high sensitivity, and good selectivity towards the targeted molecules. These results indicated that the formation of the exact and stable cavity imprints in terms of size, shape, and functionalities was successful. In our future work, we aim to use our E-MIP sensors for NS1 detection in real-life samples such as serum and blood.

Towards constraining cosmological parameters with SPT-3G observations of 25% of the sky

The South Pole Telescope (SPT), using its third-generation camera, SPT-3G, is conducting observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) in temperature and polarization across approximately 10 000 deg$^2$ of the sky at 95, 150, and 220 GHz. This comprehensive dataset should yield stringent constraints on cosmological parameters. In this work, we explore its potential to address the Hubble tension by forecasting constraints from temperature, polarization, and CMB lensing on early dark energy (EDE) and the variation in electron mass in spatially flat and curved universes. For this purpose, we investigate first whether analyzing the distinct SPT-3G observation fields independently, as opposed to as a single, unified region, results in a loss of information relevant to cosmological parameter estimation. We develop a realistic temperature and polarization likelihood pipeline capable of analyzing these fields in these two ways, and subsequently forecast constraints on cosmological parameters. Our findings indicate that any loss of constraining power from analyzing the fields separately is primarily concentrated at low multipoles ($\ell$ < 50) and the overall impact on the relative uncertainty on standard $Λ$ cold dark matter parameters is minimal (< 3%). Our forecasts suggest that SPT-3G data should improve by more than a factor of 90 and 190 the figure of merit of the EDE and the varying electron mass models, respectively, when combined with Planck data. The likelihood pipeline developed and used in this work is made publicly available online.
