Absence of E 2 g Nematic Instability and Dominant A 1 g Response in the Kagome Metal CsV 3 Sb 5

Ever since the discovery of the charge density wave (CDW) transition in the kagome metal CsV 3 Sb 5 , the nature of its symmetry breaking has been under intense debate. While evidence suggests that the rotational symmetry is already broken at the CDW transition temperature ( T CDW ), an additional electronic nematic instability well below T CDW has been reported based on the diverging elastoresistivity coefficient in the anisotropic channel ( m E 2 g ). Verifying the existence of a nematic transition below T CDW is not only critical for establishing the correct description of the CDW order parameter, but also important for understanding low-temperature superconductivity. Here, we report elastoresistivity measurements of CsV 3 Sb 5 using three different techniques probing both isotropic and anisotropic symmetry channels. Contrary to previous reports, we find the anisotropic elastoresistivity coefficient m E 2 g is temperature independent, except for a step jump at T CDW . The absence of nematic fluctuations is further substantiated by measurements of the elastocaloric effect, which show no enhancement associated with nematic susceptibility. On the other hand, the symmetric elastoresistivity coefficient m A 1 g increases below T CDW , reaching a peak value of 90 at T * = 20 K . Our results strongly indicate that the phase transition at T * is not nematic in nature and the previously reported diverging elastoresistivity is due to the contamination from the A 1 g channel.

A Combined Crossed Molecular Beam and Theoretical Investigation of the Elementary Reaction of Tricarbon (C 3 (X 1 Σ g + )) with Diacetylene (C 4 H 2 (X 1 Σ g + )): Gas Phase Formation of the Heptatriynylidyne Radical ( l -C 7 H(X 2 Π))

An elucidation of the underlying formation pathways to acyclic hydrocarbons such as polyynes (C n H 2 ), cumulenes (C n H 2 ), and linear resonantly stabilized linear radicals (l-C n H) is indispensable to understand the hydrocarbon chemistry in extreme low and high temperature environments. In this study, we exploited the crossed molecular beam technique to investigate the reaction of tricarbon C 3 (X 1 Σ g + ) with diacetylene (butadiyne; HCCCCH; X 1 Σ g + ) at a collision energy of 47 ± 1 kJ mol ⁻1 . The experimental data were merged with ab initio calculations of the singlet C 7 H 2 potential energy surface (PES) revealing that the reaction is initiated via the formation of an initial van der Waals reactant complex in the entrance channel. Subsequent rearrangements lead to various carbene-type and cyclic intermediates via ring-opening, ring-closure, and hydrogen migration processes eventually forming acyclic C 7 H 2 isomers prior to their barrierless unimolecular decomposition to the most stable linear isomer, heptatriynylidyne (C 7 H, X 2 Π) in an overall endoergic reaction (+57 kJ mol ⁻1 ). The reaction exhibits strong similarities to the tricarbon – acetylene (C 3 – C 2 H 2 ). Furthermore, the significant energy threshold suggests that the tricarbon reaction with (poly)acetylenes forming resonantly stabilized linear radicals are open in high-temperature environments such as combustion flames and circumstellar envelopes of carbon stars and planetary nebulae as their descendants; however, these reactions are closed in low-temperature environments as in cold molecular clouds and hydrocarbon-rich atmospheres of planets and their moons such as in Titan.

The Hidden Path to the Resonance-Stabilized Fulvenallenyl Radical (C 7 H 5 ) via the Bimolecular Reaction of Tricarbon (C 3 , X 1 Σ g + ) with 1,3-Butadiene (C 4 H 6 ; X 1 A g )

Here, we report a novel bimolecular reaction pathway forming the resonance-stabilized fulvenallenyl radical (C 7 H 5 ) via the gas-phase reaction of tricarbon (C 3 , X 1 Σ g + ) with 1,3-butadiene (C 4 H 6 , X 1 A g ). Crossed molecular beam experiments combined with high-level electronic structures and statistical calculations reveal a rich potential energy surface. The reaction proceeds via tricarbon addition to a double bond of 1,3-butadiene, overcoming a 30 kJ mol –1 barrier, followed by ring closure, isomerizations (ring opening/closures, hydrogen shifts), and eventual hydrogen atom loss, yielding the fulvenallenyl radical (p1) almost exclusively via two dominant pathways. Considering the entrance barrier, this reaction may occur in high-temperature environments, like circumstellar envelopes of carbon stars, but is suppressed in colder regions such as molecular clouds and Titan’s atmosphere. These findings highlight the unexpected reactivity of small carbon clusters in shaping the molecular complexity of our universe, from the flicker of a flame to the death of a star.

Reply to “Comment on ‘The Reduced Detection Rate of Signals That Are Hidden by Earthquakes: Case Studies with Spotlight Detectors That Operate at Seismic Arrays,’ by Joshua D. Carmichael, Brent G. Delbridge, and Richard Alfaro-Diaz” by Paul G. Richards

We reply to a comment that Paul G. Richards (Richards, 2026) directed to an article by Carmichael et al. (2025). Richards expressed concern over two issues. The first issue relates to the size of the explosions discussed in the article. The second relates to the probability that earthquakes and explosions sourced near the same location coincide in time, by chance. We do not address the first issue because the original article does not assign significance to the size of the explosions from the point of view of an experimental party. We do respond to Richards’ comment on the second issue and claim that it can be explained through a clarification about conditional versus joint probabilities. Our present discussion, therefore, describes the difference between the conditional probability that a correlator fails, given that an explosion and earthquake coincidently occur in the same place, and the joint probability that a correlator fails while an earthquake and explosion also coincidentally occur in the same place. This latter, joint probability appears to be rare. We clarify that our original article did not treat the joint probability, only the conditional probability.

Spinning black hole scattering at $ \mathcal{O} $(G 3 S 2 )(G 3 S 2 ): Casimir terms, radial action and hidden symmetry

We resolve subtleties in calculating the post-Minksowskian dynamics of binary systems, as a spin expansion, from massive scattering amplitudes of fixed finite spin. In particular, the apparently ambiguous spin Casimir terms can be fully determined from the gradient of the spin-diagonal part of the amplitudes with respect to S 2 = −s(s+1)ħ 2 , using an interpolation between massive amplitudes with different spin representations. From two-loop amplitudes of spin-0 and spin-1 particles minimally coupled to gravity, we extract the spin Casimir terms in the conservative scattering angle between a spinless and a spinning black hole at $ \mathcal{O} $(G 3 S 2 ), finding agreement with known results in the literature. This completes an earlier study [Phys. Rev. Lett. 130 (2023), 021601] that calculated the non-Casimir terms from amplitudes. We also illustrate our methods using a model of spinning bodies in electrodynamics, finding agreement between scattering amplitude predictions and classical predictions in a root-Kerr electromagnetic background up to $ \mathcal{O} $(α 3 S 2 ). For both gravity and electrodynamics, the finite part of the amplitude coincides with the two-body radial action in the aligned spin limit, generalizing the amplitude-action relation beyond the spinless case. Surprisingly, the two-loop amplitude displays a hidden spin-shift symmetry in the probe limit, which was previously observed at one loop. We conjecture that the symmetry holds to all orders in the coupling constant and is a consequence of integrability of Kerr orbits in the probe limit at the first few orders in spin.

Metastable multimeric G-quadruplex 2′FY-RNA aptamers that selectively bind pyoverdines

Two 2′FY-RNA aptamers with distinct sequences were selected for specific binding to pyoverdine-Pf5 (PVD-Pf5), increasing chromophore fluorescence upon binding. They also recognized the peptide portion of pyoverdines, as shown by their differential specificity for related variants. Computational analysis and experimental data (NMM binding, CD spectra) identified G-quadruplex structures that were thermally metastable but reformed in the presence of PVD-Pf5. Further structural studies mainly with one aptamer revealed imino proton peaks in 1D H-NMR and pressure stability up to 2 kbar. Electrophoretic evidence identified dimeric G-quadruplexes formed by the 2′FY-RNA aptamers and their RNA equivalents. While cations were necessary for PVD-Pf5 binding, they were not required for G-quadruplex formation. Given the established role of G-quadruplexes as protein interaction sites, multimeric G-quadruplexes offer a potential framework for structure-based regulatory mechanisms in cellular RNAs. In addition to previously characterized multimeric G-quadruplexes, these aptamers contribute novel sequences that expand the repertoire of known multimeric G-quadruplexes.

Considerations for Defining G-Values for Aluminum-Clad Spent Nuclear Fuel

Sealed-canister dry storage of aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel (ASNF) generated by research reactors is an alternative to current storage and disposition pathways as directed by the U.S. Department of Energy. The major challenge faced for this storage approach is radiolytic H 2 generation, including from the aluminum (oxy)hydroxide layers on the surface of ASNF. Experimental and modeling activities have been carried out to characterize the radiolytic yield as part of a DOE-sponsored research program to develop the technical basis for ASNF dry storage. The G-value is a commonly way to report results of radiolysis testing and is defined as the radiolytic yield of a species (e.g. molecular hydrogen) per unit radiation energy deposited into the material system. An independent technical review of the ASNF dry storage technical basis performed by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory raised questions about differences in G-value definitions used for experiments on ASNF surrogates consisting of aluminum samples with adherent (oxy)hydroxides compared to G-values reported in prior literature and how the magnitudes compared between different studies. Material systems resembling ASNF pose complications for measuring/defining G-values to predict the evolution of H 2 in a sealed canister, including i) accounting for radiolytic yields potentially arising from multiple sources, i.e., residual free (vapor), physisorbed, and chemisorbed/chemically bound waters; ii) deciding what portions of the multi-material system to include in the absorbed energy (radiation dose) calculation, considering possible energy exchange between materials as well as measurement limitations, and iii) capturing variations in G-value associated with non-linear yield vs. dose curves and/or dependence on the cover gas. This report summarizes previous literature information on radiolytic H 2 generation and associated G-values from mixed-material systems (generally oxides in contact with water or organic compounds) and from (oxy)hydroxides/hydrates to compare with the definitions and values for ASNF surrogate samples containing adherent aluminum (oxy)hydroxides.

Chemical changes from N-doped graphene and Metal-Organic Frameworks to N-G/MOF composites for improved electrocatalytic activity

Integrating N doped graphene (N G) with Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) enhances catalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), often exceeding both the performances of their precursors and, in some cases, even PGM based catalysts. However, the factors driving this improved catalytic activity in N G/MOF composites remain unexplored, particularly from the perspective of the chemical changes. To investigate the chemical changes in N G and MOF upon their integration and the implications of these changes on ORR catalytic activity, an N G/MOF was synthesized from N G with a MOF (ZIF 8) following a mechanochemical wet ball milling process. The N G, ZIF 8, and N G/MOF samples were examined for changes in elemental composition, chemical state of carbon, different nitrogen and carbon bonds, and other chemical interactions. In the N G/MOF catalyst, compared to its N G and ZIF 8 precursors, the relative oxygen content increased, indicating the formation of additional oxygen containing groups. The C 1s peak shifted to a lower binding energy in N G/MOF, suggesting changes in the overall chemical or oxidation state of the carbon atoms. Besides, the increase in pyridinic N functional groups in N G/MOF points to the formation of additional active sites. Furthermore, the formation of C Zn bonds in N G/MOF suggests the probable emergence of single atom Zn sites, while the increase in C=O bonds points to the formation of carboxyl or carbonyl groups. These chemical changes could be linked to the enhanced electrocatalytic activity of the N G/MOF composite for ORR. In conclusion, this study may also be beneficial for other research focused on developing composite catalysts involving various N G and MOF materials.

Structures of respiratory syncytial virus G bound to broadly reactive antibodies provide insights into vaccine design

Abstract Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of severe lower respiratory tract disease in infants and older adults. The attachment glycoprotein (RSV G) binds to the chemokine receptor CX3CR1 to promote viral entry and modulate host immunity. Antibodies against RSV G are a known correlate of protection. Previously, several broadly reactive, high-affinity anti-RSV G human monoclonal antibodies were isolated from RSV-exposed individuals and were shown to be protective in vitro and in vivo. Here, we determined the structures of three of these antibodies in complex with RSV G and defined distinct conformational epitopes comprised of highly conserved RSV G residues. Binding competition and structural studies demonstrated that this highly conserved region displays two non-overlapping antigenic sites. Analyses of anti-RSV G antibody sequences reveal that antigenic site flexibility may promote the elicitation of diverse antibody germlines. Together, these findings provide a foundation for next-generation RSV prophylactics, and they expand concepts in vaccine design for the elicitation of germline lineage-diverse, broadly reactive, high-affinity antibodies.

A Novel Measurement of the Anomalous Muon Spin Precession Frequency in the Muon $g-2$ Experiment at Fermilab

The Muon $g-2$ Experiment operated at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL, or Fermilab) between 2018 and 2023 to produce the world's most precise measurement of the muon's \textit{anomalous magnetic moment}, $a_\mu = \frac{g_\mu - 2}{2}$, which expresses the relative deviation in the muon's $g$-factor from a baseline theoretical expectation that $g_\mu = 2$. In the Standard Model of particle physics, $g_\mu > 2$ and hence $a_\mu > 0$ by a calculable amount that depends on all possible interactions between the muon and all other fundamental particles, including any potentially undiscovered interactions beyond the Standard Model. For this reason, measurements of the electron anomaly $a_e$ and later the muon anomaly $a_\mu$ have helped guide the development of the Standard Model since the inception of quantum field theory, and the measured value of $a_\mu$ provides a valuable constraint for new hypotheses that extend the Standard Model. As of 2006, the leading measurement and Standard Model prediction for $a_\mu$ exhibited tension at the level of about three standard deviations, motivating an improved measurement at Fermilab that could test the tension more precisely. The experiment functions by storing a polarized beam of $\mu^+$ in a uniform magnetic field, which simultaneously induces circular motion and spin precession. As the stored muons undergo the Michel decay $\mu^+ \to e^+ + \nu_e + \bar{\nu}_\mu$, mediated by the parity-violating weak interaction, the rest-frame $e^+$ emission direction is correlated with the parent $\mu^+$ spin orientation. Boosting into the laboratory frame encodes this correlation in the decay $e^+$ energy, which is higher when the emission (i.e. $\mu^+$ spin direction) is aligned with the $\mu^+$ momentum, and lower when opposite. Detectors then count the rate of high-energy decay $e^+$, which modulates at the difference between the $\mu^+$ revolution and spin precession frequencies. This observed frequency, called the \textit{anomalous spin precession frequency} $\omega_a$, is directly proportional to $a_\mu$. The extraction of $\omega_a$ proceeds by fitting the time spectrum of detected $e^+$, which requires precise modeling of the $\omega_a$ oscillation as well as any perturbations from beam dynamics and detector acceptance. Using the $\omega_a$ analysis presented in this work, based on Runs 4 -- 6 of the Muon $g-2$ Experiment at Fermilab, we find that $a_\mu = 0.001\,165\,920\,738(162)$ with a relative uncertainty of 139 parts per billion.

G-Band Radar Demonstration for Microphysics Field Campaign Report

The G-Band Radar Demonstration for Microphysics (GRDM) campaign took place at the Eastern Pacific Cloud Aerosol Precipitation Experiment (EPCAPE) from March 15 to April 30, 2024. This was a deployment of two of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) radars and one radar from Brookhaven National Laboratory to demonstrate the utility of high-frequency millimeter-wave radars for remote sensing of stratocumulus microphysical properties. The radars were deployed on the Ellen Browning Scripps Memorial Pier alongside the AMF instruments (Figure 1). The radars include a Ka-band (35 GHz), W-band (94 GHz), and four G-band (158, 165, 174, and 240 GHz) channels. The 240 GHz and W-band channels provide complete Doppler spectra, which are useful for advanced analysis. The 158-175 GHz channels are sensitive to the water vapor profile and are useful for attenuation correction. These radars complement the high-sensitivity ARM KAZR. The goal of the deployment was to observe drizzling stratocumulus and demonstrate the capabilities of the multifrequency radar data set to constrain profiles of liquid water content and drizzle drop characteristic size. The data are still being analyzed. The methodology to derive the cloud and precipitation parameters will exploit differential attenuation and differential reflectivity between low-frequency (Ka-band) and high-frequency (G-band) channels. The method will also exploit the capability of the G-band observations to constrain the attenuation due to water vapor. These observations will quantify the capabilities and limitations of the emerging technology of G-band radars for constraint stratocumulus cloud microphysics, which are key to constraining aerosol-cloud-precipitation interactions and low-cloud climate feedback.

Commercial Building Prototypes Based on ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1-2019 Appendix G PRM: Technical Support Document

The two paths for documenting compliance with ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1 are the prescriptive path and the performance path. Beyond code programs and rating systems (for example, USGBC-LEED ) are primarily known to use a third path – the Appendix G Performance Rating Method. An update in the 2016 edition of Standard 90.1 approved the Appendix G Performance Rating System for code compliance, extending its application and allowing for greater consistency of modeling rules for code and beyond code building energy modeling. The Appendix G PRM provides rules for the development of whole building energy models of baseline and proposed models for calculating the “performance cost index target” value using the simulated energy results of the baseline and proposed models and the building performance factors published in Table 4.2.1.1 of the Standard. This report documents (1) the methodology used for development of the baseline and proposed energy models of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and U.S. Department of Energy commercial building prototypes using the Appendix G Performance Rating Method; and (2) the building performance factors that were calculated using those models.

Atmospheric parameters and chemical abundances within 100 pc: a sample of G, K, and M main-sequence stars

ABSTRACT To date, we have access to enormous inventories of stellar spectra that allow the extraction of atmospheric parameters and chemical abundances essential in stellar studies. However, characterizing such a large amount of data is complex and requires a good understanding of the studied object to ensure reliable and homogeneous results. In this study, we present a methodology to measure homogenously the basic atmospheric parameters and detailed chemical abundances of over 1600 thin disc main-sequence stars in the 100 pc solar neighbourhood, using APOGEE-2 infrared spectra. We employed the code tonalli to determine the atmospheric parameters using a prior on $\log {g}$. The $\log {g}$ prior in tonalli implies an understanding of the treated population and helps to find physically coherent answers. Our atmospheric parameters agree within the typical uncertainties (100 K in $\mathrm{T_{eff}}$, 0.15 dex in $\log {g}$ and [M/H]) with previous estimations of ASPCAP and Gaia DR3. We use our temperatures to determine a new infrared colour–temperature sequence, in good agreement with previous works, that can be used for any main-sequence star. Additionally, we used the bacchus code to determine the abundances of Mg, Al, Si, Ca, and Fe in our sample. The five elements (Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Fe) studied have an abundance distribution centred around slightly subsolar values in agreement with previous results for the solar neighbourhood. The over 1600 main-sequence stars’ atmospheric parameters and chemical abundances presented here are useful in follow-up studies of the solar neighbourhood or as a training set for data-driven methods.

Experimental determination of hydrogen isotopic equilibrium in the system H 2 O (l) -H 2(g) from 3 to 90 °C

Molecular hydrogen (H 2 ) is found in a variety of settings on and in the Earth from low-temperature sediments to hydrothermal vents, and is actively being considered as an energy resource for the transition to a green energy future. The hydrogen isotopic composition of H 2 , given as D/H ratios or δD, varies in nature by hundreds of per mil from ∼−800 ‰ in hydrothermal and sedimentary systems to ∼+450 ‰ in the stratosphere. This range reflects a variety of processes, including kinetic isotope effects associated with formation and destruction and equilibration with water, the latter proceeding at fast (order year) timescales at low temperatures (<100 °C). At isotopic equilibrium, the D/H fractionation factor between liquid water and hydrogen ( D α H2O(l)-H2(g) ) is a function of temperature and can thus be used as a geothermometer for H 2 formation or re-equilibration temperatures. Multiple studies have produced theoretical calculations for hydrogen isotopic equilibrium between H 2 and water vapor. However, only three published experimental calibrations used in geochemistry exist for the H 2 O-H 2 system: two between 51 and 742 °C for H 2 O (g) -H 2(g) (Suess, 1949, Cerrai et al., 1954), and one in the H 2 O (l) -H 2(g) system for temperatures <100 °C (Rolston et al., 1976). Despite these calibrations existing, there is uncertainty on their accuracy at low temperatures (<100 °C; e.g., Horibe and Craig, 1995).

Irradiation-induced formation of G-phase precipitates and M 2 X carbides in self-ion irradiated HT-9

Ferritic-martensitic steels with high chromium content are a promising material group for advanced nuclear systems due to their high temperature strength and good irradiation tolerance. HT-9 is an optimized and often-studied alloy in this group, but additional studies are required on its radiation response under extreme conditions to be experienced in various types of nuclear reactors, especially with respect to phase stability under irradiation. Self-ion irradiation of HT-9 by 5 MeV Fe ions was used to simulate neutron-induced behavior reaching peak doses of 100 and 300 dpa at temperatures ranging from 450 to 550 °C. M 23 C 6 carbides that existed prior to irradiation were found to remain stable under all examined irradiation conditions. As irradiation progressed at 450 and 500 °C, however, formation of spherical-like G-phase precipitates and needle-like M 2 X carbides was observed. G-phase precipitates were found to be enriched in Ni, Si, and Mn, and show no interface segregation, whereas needle-like M 2 X carbides were rich in Cr and Mo and clearly displayed interface segregation of Ni and Si. M 2 X carbide formation is believed to be assisted by vacancies, while G-phase precipitation is thought to be assisted by interstitials. Finally, this difference in defect-mediated formation leads to a difference in distribution with depth. M 2 X carbides are distributed over shallower depths than that of G-phase precipitates, consistent with defect imbalance predictions that consider the influence of the injected interstitial effect.

Interaction of N-methylmesoporphyrin IX with a hybrid left-/right-handed G-quadruplex motif from the promoter of the SLC2A1 gene

Abstract Left-handed G-quadruplexes (LHG4s) belong to a class of recently discovered noncanonical DNA structures under the larger umbrella of G-quadruplex DNAs (G4s). The biological relevance of these structures and their ability to be targeted with classical G4 ligands is underexplored. Here, we explore whether the putative LHG4 DNA sequence from the SLC2A1 oncogene promoter maintains its left-handed characteristics upon addition of nucleotides in the 5′- and 3′-direction from its genomic context. We also investigate whether this sequence interacts with a well-established G4 binder, N-methylmesoporphyrin IX (NMM). We employed biophysical and X-ray structural studies to address these questions. Our results indicate that the sequence d[G(TGG)3TGA(TGG)4] (termed here as SLC) adopts a two-subunit, four-tetrad hybrid left-/right-handed G4 (LH/RHG4) topology. Addition of 5′-G or 5′-GG abolishes the left-handed fold in one subunit, while the addition of 3′-C or 3′-CA maintains the original fold. X-ray crystal structure analyses show that SLC maintains the same hybrid LH/RHG4 fold in the solid state and that NMM stacks onto the right-handed subunit of SLC. NMM binds to SLC with a 1:1 stoichiometry and a moderate-to-tight binding constant of 15 μM−1. This work deepens our understanding of LHG4 structures and their binding with traditional G4 ligands.

Measurement of the Kicker transient magnetic field in the Muon g-2 Experiment at Fermilab

The Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab has the main goal to measure the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_µ = \frac{g−2}{2}$ to a precision of 140 parts per billion (ppb), which means 4 times improvement in precision with respect to the final result from BNL: a µ (expt.B N L) = 11659208.0(6.3)×10 −10 (540 ppb) So far only RUN1 data have been analyzed showing the following improvement: a µ (expt.RU N1) = 116592061×10 −11 (465 ppb) In this report I summarize the work done at the g-2 experiment during my summer internship at Fermilab where I worked on the attempt to estimate the kicker transient field contribution in the Muon g-2 experiment.
