On Two-Phase Pressure and Temperature Equilibration with Mie-Grüneisen Equations of State

In the course of reactive flow modeling, the phases of high explosive (HE) reactants and products introduce additional degrees of freedom to the underlying hydrodynamic equations of compressible reactive fluid mechanics. Hydrodynamic simulations track the bulk (mixture) conservation properties of mass, momentum and energy. When multiple phases are introduced, one must decide on appropriate closure rules to determine the relative phase volumes and energy distribution between the phases. One typical closure is to assume that the phases are in pressure and temperature equilibrium. Here, the requisite equations of p-T equilibration are explored for Mie-Grüneisen Equations of State (EOS). Examples with Davis reactants and Davis products EOSs will be given. The Davis forms are used in both the WSD and AWSD reactive flow models.

Half-ice, half-fire-driven ultranarrow phase crossover in one-dimensional decorated 𝑞-state Potts ferrimagnets: An AI-co-led exploration

OpenAI’s reasoning model o3-mini-high was used to carry out an exact analytic study of one-dimensional ferrimagnetic site- and bond-decorated 𝑞-state Potts models. We demonstrate that the finite-temperature ultranarrow phase crossover (UNPC), driven by a hidden “half-ice, half-fire” state recently discovered in the 𝑞=2 case (Ising model), persists for 𝑞>2. Moreover, we identify unique features for 𝑞>2, including the dome structure in the field-temperature phase diagram, and for large 𝑞 a secondary high-temperature UNPC to the fully disordered paramagnetic state. As the UNPC quickly approaches a genuine transition by enhancing 𝐽, the interaction between the backbone spins, two distinct behaviors emerge: In the site-decorated Potts model, 𝑇 0 is independent of 𝐽 and thus remains unchanged (Type-I UNPC), and in the bond-decorated Potts model with 𝑞>2, 𝑇 0 depends on 𝐽 and quickly shifts toward a finite temperature as 𝐽 increases (Type-II UNPC). These results establish a versatile framework for engineering controlled fast state-flipping switches in low-dimensional systems. Our nine-dan artificial intelligence (AI)-contribution framework assigns AI the meritorious status of AI-co-led discovery in this work.

Tuning to more compressible phase in TiZrHfNb high entropy alloy by pressure

In this work, the starting nominal Ti 25 Zr 25 Hf 25 Nb 25 high entropy alloy (HEA) has two body centered cubic (BCC) phases with a volume percentage about 100:1, with the primary phase having a much larger bulk modulus (incompressible) than the uniform single-phase HEA. We found that these two phases merged into one single BCC phase at pressures beyond 36 GPa, whose bulk modulus dropped to that of the normal homogeneous HEA. After decompressing, the new phase can be sustained to ambient conditions. We note this abnormal pressure-induced softening was largely related to the lattice distortion evolution and interfacial energy during compression.

Phase transition dynamics in one-dimensional halide perovskite crystals

Triiodide perovskites CsPbI 3 , CsSnI 3 , and FAPbI 3 (where FA is formamidinium) are highly promising materials for a range of optoelectronic applications in energy conversion. However, they are thermodynamically unstable at room temperature, preferring to form low-temperature (low-T) non-perovskite phases with one-dimensional anisotropic crystal structures. While such thermodynamic behavior represents a major obstacle toward realizing high-performance devices based on their high-temperature (high-T) perovskite phases, the underlying phase transition dynamics are still not well understood. In this work, we use in situ optical micro-spectroscopy to quantitatively study the transition from the low-T to high-T phases in individual CsSnI 3 and FAPbI 3 nanowires. We reveal a large blueshift in the photoluminescence (PL) peak (~38 meV) at the low-T/high-T two-phase interface of partially transitioned FAPbI 3 wire, which may result from the lattice distortion at the phase boundary. Compared to the experimentally derived activation energy of CsSnI 3 (~1.93 eV), the activation energy of FAPbI 3 is relatively small (~0.84 eV), indicating a lower kinetic energy barrier when transitioning from a face-sharing octahedral configuration to a corner-sharing one. Further, the phase propagation rate in CsSnI 3 is observed to be relatively high, which may be attributed to a high concentration of Sn vacancies. Our results could not only facilitate a deeper understanding of phase transition dynamics in halide perovskites with anisotropic crystal structures, but also enable controllable manipulation of optoelectronic properties via local phase engineering.

Visualization of the strain-induced topological phase transition in a quasi-one-dimensional superconductor TaSe 3

Control of the phase transition from topological to normal insulators can allow for an on/off switching of spin current. While topological phase transitions have been realized by elemental substitution in semiconducting alloys, such an approach requires preparation of materials with various compositions. Thus it is quite far from a feasible device application, which demands a reversible operation. In this work, we use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and spin- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to visualize the strain-driven band-structure evolution of the quasi-one-dimensional superconductor TaSe 3 . We demonstrate that it undergoes reversible strain-induced topological phase transitions from a strong topological insulator phase with spin-polarized, quasi-one-dimensional topological surface states, to topologically trivial semimetal and band insulating phases. The quasi-one-dimensional superconductor TaSe 3 provides a suitable platform for engineering the topological spintronics, for example as an on/off switch for a spin current that is robust against impurity scattering.

Pascal conductance series in ballistic one-dimensional LaAlO 3 /SrTiO 3 channels

One-dimensional electronic systems can support exotic collective phases because of the enhanced role of electron correlations. We describe the experimental observation of a series of quantized conductance steps within strongly interacting electron waveguides formed at the lanthanum aluminate–strontium titanate (LaAlO 3 /SrTiO 3 ) interface. The waveguide conductance follows a characteristic sequence within Pascal’s triangle: (1, 3, 6, 10, 15, …) e 2 /h , where e is the electron charge and h is the Planck constant. This behavior is consistent with the existence of a family of degenerate quantum liquids formed from bound states of n = 2, 3, 4, … electrons. Our experimental setup could provide a setting for solid-state analogs of a wide range of composite fermionic phases.

Paradigm for approaching the forbidden spontaneous phase transition in the one-dimensional Ising model at a fixed finite temperature

The Ising model describes collective behaviors such as phase transitions and critical phenomena in various physical, biological, economical, and social systems. It is well known that spontaneous phase transition at finite temperature does not exist in the Ising model with short-range interactions in one dimension. Yet, little is known about whether this forbidden phase transition can be approached arbitrarily closely—at fixed finite temperature. Here I use symmetry analysis of the transfer matrix to reveal the existence of spontaneous ultranarrow phase crossover (UNPC) at finite temperature in one class of one-dimensional Ising models on decorated two-leg ladders, in which the crossover temperature T 0 is determined solely by on-rung interactions and decorations, while the crossover width 2 δ T is independently, exponentially reduced ( δ T = 0 means a genuine phase transition) by on-leg interactions and decorations. These findings establish a simple ideal paradigm for realizing an infinite number of one-dimensional Ising systems with spontaneous UNPC at desirable T 0 , which would be characterized in routine laboratory measurements as a genuine first-order phase transition with large latent heat thanks to the ultranarrow δ T (say less than one nanokelvin), paving a way to push the limit in our understanding of phase transitions and the dynamical actions of frustration arbitrarily close to the forbidden regime.

2013-2014 Greater Fairbanks, Alaska, Transportation Survey

The 2013-2014 Greater Fairbanks Transportation Survey obtained behavior data for regional travel demand modeling. The planning region in Alaska comprised the North Star Borough—known as the PM2.5 nonattainment region—and included the cities of Fairbanks and North Pole. The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities sponsored the survey, which was conducted by Westat. Data collection occurred in two phases: fall 2013 and winter 2014. The first phase employed address-based sampling to recruit more than 1,700 households for a one-day personal travel survey and a subsample participated with global position system (GPS) and on-board diagnostic (OBD) loggers installed in their vehicles (282 vehicles) for one week. The purpose of phase one was to better understand the impact of vehicle emissions on air quality in the PM2.5 nonattainment region. Many of the households participating in the vehicle GPS/OBD portion of phase one were asked to participate in phase two.
