Rapid, Untargeted Chemical Profiling of Single Cells in Their Native Environment
We report a method that enables untargeted, high throughput, and quantitative mass spectrometric analysis of single cells from cell suspension without needing additional sample preparation procedures (e.g., molecular tagging) through the combination of single-cell printer technology and liquid vortex capture–mass spectrometry (SCP-LVC-MS). The operating principle behind the SCP-LVC-MS technology is single cell isolation via small droplet piezoelectric ejection followed by capture of the droplet into an LVC-MS sampling probe. Once exposed to an appropriate solvent, the cell is lysed, extracted, and analyzed by MS. The SCP-LVC-MS approach was validated by measuring the lipid composition of microalgae, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (ChRe) and Euglena gracilis (EuGr), and HeLa cells in their native growth media. Numerous diacylglyceryltrimethylhomo-Ser (DGTS), phosphatidylcholine (PC), monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG), and digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) lipids were observed in single cells. Continuous solvent flow ensures that cells are analyzed rapidly, and no signal carryover between cells is observed. ChRe and EuGr microalgae mixed together in the same solution were differentiated cell-by-cell in real-time based on differences between levels of diacylglyceryltrimethylhomo-Ser (DGTS) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) lipids measured in each cell. Several DGTS lipids present in ChRe were quantified with single-cell resolution by normalizing to a DGTS(32:0) internal standard added to the LVC probe solvent during analysis. Quantitative peak areas were validated by comparing to bulk lipid extracts. Furthermore, peak area distributions comprised of hundreds of cells were compared for ChRe after 5 days of nitrogen-limited and normal growth conditions, which show clear differences and the ability to resolve cellular population differences with single-cell resolution.

Radiation Leakage and the Precision of Characterizing Nuclear Material Using Calorimetric Assay - 19233
For measuring a waste drum containing multi-nuclide radioactive material calorimetric assay is often combined with gamma ray and neutron measurements. To reduce the methodological uncertainties of the inventory determination in a multi-nuclide matrix, the escaping radiation must be quantized as much as the encapsulated gamma-rays and α-, β-, n- particles depositing radiological heat inside the drum. To differentiate the possible variety of heat sources in a radioactive waste drum, Monte Carlo simulations are utilized resembling the waste drum and the calorimeter in both, their geometries as well as the material compositions. MCNP6-based numerical imaging of the Large Volume Calorimeter (LVC) designed by KEP Nuclear(France) allows simulating various scenarios for different particles types, energies and source locations to accompany and support the interpretation of calorimetric KEP-LVC measurements anticipated within the CHANCE project. For the analyses, the particle flux and energy deposition in each layer of the calorimeter are displayed. The results yield that a significant part of the emitted radiation leaves the system and does not contribute to the heat deposited inside the drum. As an example, the particle flux study of a 200 L mock-up drum placed inside the KEP-LVC calorimeter is discussed. A tally 4 with mesh option for both gamma and neutrons up to 5 MeV simulates the mean flux in each cell and for various source location and source distribution patterns. The expected energy deposition is cumulated for each layer, and over the whole energy range it reveals that actually a small but well known fraction of particles escapes the LVC calorimeter. This makes it a very suitable apparatus for the anticipated experiments on large and heterogeneous waste drums. The results suggest that the most interesting cases would be polyethylene, bitumen and concrete matrices [3, 5]. However, it must be kept in mind that the high-energy part of the gamma and neutron radiation flux can reach the reference chamber of the calorimeter and deposit some energy there, which may compromise the calibration and cause double-bias. The simulations showed that, depending on source location and power, neutron and high-energy gamma radiation leakage can influence the heat measurements differently. In general, part of the simulation results suggest that for waste drums with a high emission rate the accuracy of calorimetric assay can be decreased due to radiation escape. (authors)

Low‐Volume Cores for Fabrication of Compact, Versatile, and Intelligent Soft Systems
Abstract This study introduces the low‐volume core (LVC) fabrication method, which enables the monolithic molding of compact, complex, versatile, and intelligent soft robotic systems. This method uses thin and flexible thermoplastic sheets to mold internal chambers in soft fluidic actuators, valves, and circuits. The LVC fabrication method creates low‐volume networks in soft actuators (LV‐net actuators) that can be made with compact and complex geometries, enabling both low actuation volume input and multi‐degree‐of‐freedom actuators. LVC fabrication can also be used for compact, completely soft, and monolithic logic components (valves with low‐volume core, also called as LV valves) to provide directional resistance as well as a switching mechanism that enables fluidic logic in soft systems. The compatibility of the fabrication methods for both soft actuators and valves facilitates the creation of compact, integrated, and versatile soft robotic systems with embodied intelligence. This study introduces two examples of such intelligent soft robotic systems that integrate both LV‐net actuators and LV valves to demonstrate capability for complex system fabrication.

Quantitation of amiodarone and N-desethylamiodarone in single HepG2 cells by single-cell printing-liquid vortex capture-mass spectrometry
Quantitative measure of a drug and its associated metabolite(s) with single-cell resolution is often limited by sampling throughput or other compromises that limit broad use. Here, we demonstrate the use of single-cell printing-liquid vortex capture-mass spectrometry (SCP-LVC-MS) to quantitatively measure the intracellular concentrations of amiodarone (AMIO) and its metabolite, N-desethylamiodarone (NDEA), from thousands of single cells across several AMIO incubation concentrations ranging from 0 to 10 μM. Concentrations obtained by SCP-LVC-MS were validated through comparison with average assays and traditional measurement of cells in bulk. Average of SCP-LVC-MS measurements and aggregate vial collection assay the concentrations differed by < 5%. Both AMIO and NDEA had clear log-normal distributions with similar standard deviation of concentrations in the cell population. The mean of both AMIO and NDEA intracellular concentrations were positively correlated with AMIO incubation concentration, increasing from 0.026 to 0.520 and 0.0055 to 0.048 mM for AMIO and NDEA, respectively. The standard deviation of AMIO and NDEA log-normal distribution fits were relatively similar in value across incubation concentrations, 0.15–0.19 log 10 (mM), and exhibited a linear trend with respect to each other. The single cell-resolved conversion ratio of AMIO to NDEA increased with decreasing incubation concentration, 7 ± 2%, 18 ± 3%, and 20 ± 7% for 10.0, 1.0, and 0.1 μM AMIO incubation concentrations, respectively. Finally, association with simultaneously measured lipids had several ions with statistically significant difference in intensity but no clear correlations with AMIO intracellular content was observed.

Optical follow-up of gravitational wave triggers with DECam during the first two LIGO/VIRGO observing runs
Gravitational wave (GW) events detectable by LIGO and Virgo have several possible progenitors, including black hole mergers, neutron star mergers, black hole–neutron star mergers, supernovae, and cosmic string cusps. A subset of GW events is expected to produce electromagnetic (EM) emission that, once detected, will provide complementary information about their astrophysical context. To that end, the LIGO–Virgo Collaboration (LVC) sends GW candidate alerts to the astronomical community so that searches for their EM counterparts can be pursued. The DESGW group, consisting of members of the Dark Energy Survey (DES), the LVC, and other members of the astronomical community, uses the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) to perform a search and discovery program for optical signatures of LVC GW events. DESGW aims to use a sample of GW events as standard sirens for cosmology. Due to the short decay timescale of the expected EM counterparts and the need to quickly eliminate survey areas with no counterpart candidates, it is critical to complete the initial analysis of each night’s images as quickly as possible. We discuss our search area determination, imaging pipeline, and candidate selection processes. We review results from the DESGW program during the first two LIGO–Virgo observing campaigns and introduce other science applications that our pipeline enables.

Influence of non-adiabatic effects on linear absorption spectra in the condensed phase: Methylene blue
Modeling linear absorption spectra of solvated chromophores is highly challenging as contributions are present both from coupling of the electronic states to nuclear vibrations and from solute–solvent interactions. In systems where excited states intersect in the Condon region, significant non-adiabatic contributions to absorption line shapes can also be observed. Here, we introduce a robust approach to model linear absorption spectra accounting for both environmental and non-adiabatic effects from first principles. This model parameterizes a linear vibronic coupling (LVC) Hamiltonian directly from energy gap fluctuations calculated along molecular dynamics (MD) trajectories of the chromophore in solution, accounting for both anharmonicity in the potential and direct solute–solvent interactions. The resulting system dynamics described by the LVC Hamiltonian are solved exactly using the thermalized time-evolving density operator with orthogonal polynomials algorithm (T-TEDOPA). The approach is applied to the linear absorption spectrum of methylene blue in water. We show that the strong shoulder in the experimental spectrum is caused by vibrationally driven population transfer between the bright S1 and the dark S2 states. The treatment of the solvent environment is one of many factors that strongly influence the population transfer and line shape; accurate modeling can only be achieved through the use of explicit quantum mechanical solvation. The efficiency of T-TEDOPA, combined with LVC Hamiltonian parameterizations from MD, leads to an attractive method for describing a large variety of systems in complex environments from first principles.

Swift-XRT Follow-up of Gravitational-wave Triggers in the Second Advanced LIGO/Virgo Observing Run
The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory carried out prompt searches for gravitational-wave (GW) events detected by the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) during the second observing run ("O2"). Swift performed extensive tiling of eight LVC triggers, two of which had very low false-alarm rates (GW170814 and the epochal GW170817), indicating a high confidence of being astrophysical in origin; the latter was the first GW event to have an electromagnetic counterpart detected. In this paper we describe the follow-up performed during O2 and the results of our searches. No GW electromagnetic counterparts were detected; this result is expected, as GW170817 remained the only astrophysical event containing at least one neutron star after LVC's later retraction of some events. A number of X-ray sources were detected, with the majority of identified sources being active galactic nuclei. We discuss the detection rate of transient X-ray sources and their implications in the O2 tiling searches. Finally, we describe the lessons learned during O2 and how these are being used to improve the Swift follow-up of GW events. In particular, we simulate a population of gamma-ray burst afterglows to evaluate our source ranking system's ability to differentiate them from unrelated and uncataloged X-ray sources. We find that ≈60%–70% of afterglows whose jets are oriented toward Earth will be given high rank (i.e., "interesting" designation) by the completion of our second follow-up phase (assuming that their location in the sky was observed), but that this fraction can be increased to nearly 100% by performing a third follow-up observation of sources exhibiting fading behavior.

GROWTH on S190426c: Real-time Search for a Counterpart to the Probable Neutron Star–Black Hole Merger using an Automated Difference Imaging Pipeline for DECam
The discovery of a transient kilonova following the gravitational-wave (GW) event GW170817 highlighted the critical need for coordinated rapid and wide-field observations, inference, and follow-up across the electromagnetic spectrum. In the southern hemisphere, the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) on the Blanco 4 m telescope is well suited to this task, as it is able to cover wide fields quickly while still achieving the depths required to find kilonovae like the one accompanying GW170817 to ~500 Mpc, the binary neutron star (NS) horizon distance for current generation of LIGO/Virgo collaboration (LVC) interferometers. Here, as part of the multi-facility follow-up by the Global Relay of Observatories Watching Transients Happen collaboration, we describe the observations and automated data movement, data reduction, candidate discovery, and vetting pipeline of our target-of-opportunity DECam observations of S190426c, the first possible NS-black hole merger detected in GWs. Starting 7.5 hr after S190426c, over 11.28 hr of observations, we imaged an area of 525 deg 2 ( r band) and 437 deg 2 ( z band); this was 16.3% of the total original localization probability, and nearly all of the probability visible from the southern hemisphere. The machine-learning-based pipeline was optimized for fast turnaround, delivering transients for human vetting within 17 minutes, on average, of shutter closure. We reported nine promising counterpart candidates 2.5 hr before the end of our observations. One hour after our data-taking ended (roughly 20 hr after the announcement of S190426c), LVC released a refined skymap that reduced the probability coverage of our observations to 8.0%, demonstrating a critical need for localization updates on shorter (~hour) timescales. Our observations yielded no detection of a bona fide counterpart to m z = 21.7 and m r = 22.2 at the 5σ level of significance, consistent with the refined LVC positioning. Here, we view these observations and rapid inferencing as an important real-world test for this novel end-to-end wide-field pipeline.

Comparing Liquid Vortex Capture & the Rapid Droplet Sampling Interface for Single Cell Mass Spectrometry
High-throughput single-cell mass spectrometry is a rapidly evolving field that requires innovative sampling and ionization techniques to balance speed, sensitivity, and reliability for metabolomic and lipidomic analyses. This study provides a comparative analysis of two cutting-edge ionization platforms for single-cell analysis: Liquid Vortex Capture (LVC) and Rapid Droplet Sampling Interface (RDSI). The performance was benchmarked by testing pharmaceuticals, EquiSPLASH, and single-cell experiments. RDSI demonstrated up to 100-fold improvements in sensitivity for drugs and lipids such as propranolol, amiodarone, atorvastatin, and phosphocholines in water and phosphate-buffered solutions. This was attributed to its low-flow rate operation (3 μL/min) and reduced dilution. Conversely, LVC excelled in handling higher liquid volumes with greater reproducibility due to its higher solvent flow rate (200 μL/min), enabling increased dilution, solubility, and cleaning. Single-cell uptake of atorvastatin incubated for 10 min, or amiodarone incubated for 24 h in HepG2 cells, similarly revealed up to 85-fold enhancement in sensitivity by RDSI for drugs and lipids. These findings highlight the potential of RDSI for enhancing sensitivity in single-cell drug monitoring and lipidomics.

J-GEM optical and near-infrared follow-up of gravitational wave events during LIGO’s and Virgo’s third observing run
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration (LVC) sent out 56 gravitational-wave (GW) notices during the third observing run (O3). The Japanese Collaboration for Gravitational wave ElectroMagnetic follow-up (J-GEM) performed optical and near-infrared observations to identify and observe an electromagnetic (EM) counterpart. We constructed a web-based system that enabled us to obtain and share information on candidate host galaxies for the counterpart, and the status of our observations. Candidate host galaxies were selected from the GLADE catalog with a weight based on the 3D GW localization map provided by LVC. We conducted galaxy-targeted and wide-field blind surveys, real-time data analysis, and visual inspection of observed galaxies. We performed galaxy-targeted follow-ups to 23 GW events during O3, and the maximum probability covered by our observations reached 9.8%. Among these, we successfully started observations for 10 GW events within 0.5 days after the detection. This result demonstrates that our follow-up observation has the potential to constrain EM radiation models for a merger of binary neutron stars at a distance of up to ~100 Mpc with a probability area of ≤ 500 deg 2 .

SOAR/Goodman Spectroscopic Assessment of Candidate Counterparts of the LIGO/Virgo Event GW190814*
On 2019 August 14 at 21:10:39 UTC, the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected a possible neutron star–black hole merger (NSBH), the first ever identified. An extensive search for an optical counterpart of this event, designated GW190814, was undertaken using the Dark Energy Camera on the 4 m Victor M. Blanco Telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory. Target of Opportunity interrupts were issued on eight separate nights to observe 11 candidates using the 4.1 m Southern Astrophysical Research (SOAR) telescope’s Goodman High Throughput Spectrograph in order to assess whether any of these transients was likely to be an optical counterpart of the possible NSBH merger. Here, we describe the process of observing with SOAR, the analysis of our spectra, our spectroscopic typing methodology, and our resultant conclusion that none of the candidates corresponded to the gravitational wave merger event but were all instead other transients. Finally, we describe the lessons learned from this effort. Application of these lessons will be critical for a successful community spectroscopic follow-up program for LVC observing run 4 (O4) and beyond.

The LIGO HET Response (LIGHETR) Project to Discover and Spectroscopically Follow Optical Transients Associated with Neutron Star Mergers
The LIGO HET Response (LIGHETR) project is an enterprise to follow up optical transients (OTs) discovered as gravitational-wave merger sources by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration (LVC). Early spectroscopy has the potential to constrain crucial parameters such as the aspect angle. The LIGHETR collaboration also includes the capacity to model the spectroscopic evolution of mergers to facilitate a real-time direct comparison of models with our data. The principal facility is the Hobby–Eberly Telescope. LIGHETR uses the massively replicated VIRUS array of spectrographs to search for associated OTs and obtain early blue spectra, and in a complementary role, the low-resolution LRS2 spectrograph is used to obtain spectra of viable candidates as well as a densely sampled series of spectra of true counterparts. Once an OT is identified, the anticipated cadence of spectra would match or considerably exceed anything achieved for GW170817 = AT2017gfo for which there were no spectra in the first 12 hr and thereafter only roughly once daily. We describe special HET-specific software written to facilitate the program and attempts to determine the flux limits to undetected sources. We also describe our campaign to follow up OT candidates during the third observational campaign of the LIGO and Virgo Scientific Collaborations. We obtained VIRUS spectroscopy of candidate galaxy hosts for five LVC gravitational-wave events and LRS2 spectra of one candidate for the OT associated with S190901ap. We identified that candidate, ZTF19abvionh = AT2019pip, as a possible Wolf–Rayet star in an otherwise unrecognized nearby dwarf galaxy.

First Measurement of the Hubble Constant from a Dark Standard Siren using the Dark Energy Survey Galaxies and the LIGO/Virgo Binary–Black-hole Merger GW170814
We present a multi-messenger measurement of the Hubble constant H 0 using the binary–black-hole merger GW170814 as a standard siren, combined with a photometric redshift catalog from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). The luminosity distance is obtained from the gravitational wave signal detected by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO)/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) on 2017 August 14, and the redshift information is provided by the DES Year 3 data. Black hole mergers such as GW170814 are expected to lack bright electromagnetic emission to uniquely identify their host galaxies and build an object-by-object Hubble diagram. However, they are suitable for a statistical measurement, provided that a galaxy catalog of adequate depth and redshift completion is available. Here we present the first Hubble parameter measurement using a black hole merger. Our analysis results in , which is consistent with both SN Ia and cosmic microwave background measurements of the Hubble constant. The quoted 68% credible region comprises 60% of the uniform prior range [20, 140] km s−1 Mpc−1, and it depends on the assumed prior range. If we take a broader prior of [10, 220] km s−1 Mpc−1, we find (57% of the prior range). Although a weak constraint on the Hubble constant from a single event is expected using the dark siren method, a multifold increase in the LVC event rate is anticipated in the coming years and combinations of many sirens will lead to improved constraints on H 0.

On the Nature of GW190814 and Its Impact on the Understanding of Supranuclear Matter
The observation of a compact object with a mass of 2.50–2.67M ⊙ on 2019 August 14, by the LIGO Scientific and Virgo collaborations (LVC) has the potential to improve our understanding of the supranuclear equation of state. While the gravitational-wave analysis of the LVC suggests that GW190814 likely was a binary black hole system, the secondary component could also have been the heaviest neutron star observed to date. Here, we use our previously derived nuclear-physics-multimessenger astrophysics framework to address the nature of this object. Based on our findings, we determine GW190814 to be a binary black hole merger with a probability of >99.9%. Even if we weaken previously employed constraints on the maximum mass of neutron stars, the probability of a binary black hole origin is still ~81%. Furthermore, we study the impact that this observation has on our understanding of the nuclear equation of state by analyzing the allowed region in the mass–radius diagram of neutron stars for both a binary black hole or neutron star–black hole scenario. We find that the unlikely scenario in which the secondary object was a neutron star requires rather stiff equations of state with a maximum speed of sound c s ≥ $\sqrt{0.6}$ times the speed of light, while the binary black hole scenario does not offer any new insight.

Evaluating inkjet dispenser/liquid vortex capture-mass spectrometry for single-cell metabolomics in Hep G2 steatosis caused by tamoxifen
Single-cell mass spectrometry (MS) is advancing our understanding of metabolic pathways in heterogeneous cell populations; however, many techniques are slow or require disruptive sample preparations. This study evaluated coupling a modified HP D100 single-cell inkjet dispenser with liquid vortex capture-mass spectrometry (D100/LVC-MS). The D100 is a single-cell inkjet dispenser capable of titrating solutions and isolating single cells via disposable cassettes equipped with microfluidic channels and an impedance sensor. The LVC-MS enables high-throughput capture, lysis, and ionization of analytes for mass spectrometric analysis. The D100/LVC-MS system was characterized through titration and single-cell experiments. Propranolol titration demonstrated linearity across a broad concentration range using the D100/LVC-MS system. Additionally, Hep G2 hepatocarcinoma cells and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii algae were used to showcase the D100’s high-throughput or low-buffer-volume single-cell dispensing strategies. The D100/LVC-MS system’s performance was validated by evaluating tamoxifen-induced steatosis in Hep G2 cells. Tamoxifen, associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in breast cancer patients following long-term use, was tested in Hep G2 cells at 20 µM for 72 h against DMSO-treated controls. High-throughput analysis of 500 cells per condition, completed in 25 min per run, demonstrated the system’s efficiency. The D100/LVC-MS system simultaneously quantified tamoxifen and measured triglycerides and phosphatidylcholines. Triglycerides were upregulated in the tamoxifen-treated cells and the results indicated two distinct cell populations, differing in tamoxifen and phosphatidylcholines levels, suggesting heterogeneity within the treated population. In conclusion, these findings highlight the D100/LVC-MS system as a cost-effective, high-throughput platform for single-cell metabolomics and lipidomics, with significant potential for evaluating metabolic alterations.

GROWTH on S190425z: Searching Thousands of Square Degrees to Identify an Optical or Infrared Counterpart to a Binary Neutron Star Merger with the Zwicky Transient Facility and Palomar Gattini-IR
The third observing run by LVC has brought the discovery of many compact binary coalescences. Following the detection of the first binary neutron star merger in this run (LIGO/Virgo S190425z), we performed a dedicated follow-up campaign with the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) and Palomar Gattini-IR telescopes. The initial skymap of this single-detector gravitational wave (GW) trigger spanned most of the sky observable from Palomar Observatory. Covering 8000 deg2 of the initial skymap over the next two nights, corresponding to 46% integrated probability, ZTF system achieved a depth of ≈21 m AB in g- and r-bands. Palomar Gattini-IR covered 2200 square degrees in J-band to a depth of 15.5 mag, including 32% integrated probability based on the initial skymap. The revised skymap issued the following day reduced these numbers to 21% for the ZTF and 19% for Palomar Gattini-IR. We narrowed 338,646 ZTF transient "alerts" over the first two nights of observations to 15 candidate counterparts. Two candidates, ZTF19aarykkb and ZTF19aarzaod, were particularly compelling given that their location, distance, and age were consistent with the GW event, and their early optical light curves were photometrically consistent with that of kilonovae. These two candidates were spectroscopically classified as young core-collapse supernovae. The remaining candidates were ruled out as supernovae. Palomar Gattini-IR did not identify any viable candidates with multiple detections only after merger time. We demonstrate that even with single-detector GW events localized to thousands of square degrees, systematic kilonova discovery is feasible.
