Kinetics Measurements in Resistive Electrolytes Using Ring-Disk Electrode: Ring as Current “Shield” Enables Uniform Disk Current Distribution

Rotating disk electrodes are commonly used for electrochemical kinetics measurements. A major disadvantage of these types of electrodes is their nonuniform secondary current distribution, especially when performing electroanalytical measurements in resistive electrolytes. Such nonuniform current distribution can render the values of kinetics constants extracted from the disk electrode to be highly inaccurate. Furthermore, one emerging class of electrolytes that suffer from low ionic conductivities is deep eutectic solvents (DES). DES are a promising class of electrolytes for various emerging applications; however, due to their resistive nature, the secondary current distribution when using them is typically highly nonuniform. For example, the Wagner number when measuring Cu²⁺/Cu⁺ kinetics in choline chloride–ethylene glycol DES (1:4 molar ratio of ChCl:EG) is very low (<0.1), indicating highly nonuniform current distribution over the disk electrode. We show here that the Cu²⁺/Cu⁺ exchange current density measured using disk electrodes is very inaccurate due to the aforementioned nonuniform current distribution. To obtain uniform disk current distribution, we employ here a coplanar concentric rotating ring-disk electrode (RRDE), where the ring serves the function of a current “shield.” Specifically, we show using modeling that the ring minimizes the current distribution nonuniformity at the disk by effectively shielding the disk against current spikes near the disk edge. This enables improved precision in electrode kinetics measurements for the Cu²⁺/Cu⁺ couple in resistive DES. To enable broad applicability of this technique, an analytical expression based on the Wagner number is integrated into an iterative algorithm to help users identify ring conditions to achieve uniform current distribution and thus improved electroanalytics at the disk.

Surrogate model for third-integer resonance extraction at the Fermilab Delivery Ring

We present an ongoing work in which a surrogate model is being developed to reproduce the response dynamics of the third-integer resonant extraction process in the Delivery Ring (DR) at Fermilab. This is in pursuit of smoothly extracting circulating beam to the Mu2e Experiment’s production target, whereby the goal is to extract a uniform slice of the circulating 1e12 protons in the DR over 25,000 turns (43 ms). The DR contains 3 harmonic sextupoles that excite a third-integer resonance and three fast, tune-ramping quadrupole magnets that drive the horizontal tune towards the 29/3 resonance. In our initial work, the surrogate model trains on a semi-analytical simulation provided in the same format as live data. Using Reinforcement Learning (and other potential ML methods), the trained surrogate acts as the “environment” in which a simple ML control agent could learn to dynamically adjust the quadrupole ramp at 430 break points within the 43 microsecond spill window. The controller will be hosted on a dedicated Arria 10 FPGA. In this work, we report the accuracy and fidelity of the surrogate model in comparison to the response dynamics of the physics simulator.

FY2025 Status Report: Model 9975 O Ring Fixture Long-Term Leak Performance

Leak testing experiments to monitor the aging performance of Viton® GLT and GLT-S O-rings used in the model 9975 shipping package have been ongoing since 2004 at Savannah River National Laboratory. Seventy tests using mock-up 9975 primary containment vessels (PCVs) with GLT O-rings were assembled and heated to temperatures ranging from 200 to 450 °F. Due to material substitution, fourteen tests with GLT-S O-rings were initiated in 2008 and heated to temperatures ranging from 200 to 400 °F. The conditioning temperatures are elevated compared to the calculated maximum O-ring temperature in a 9975 package in storage, 158 °F, to accelerate aging and enable observations of O-ring failures in a reasonable time frame. The mock-up PCV fixtures are leak tested periodically, and all GLT O-ring fixtures aged at 350 °F or above have failed to maintain a leak-tight seal. Eight GLT O-ring fixtures aged at 300 °F have failed after 2.8 to 5.7 years at temperature while the remaining fixtures at 300 °F were retired from testing following more than five years of aging without failure. Two of these retired fixtures were returned to testing and heated to 350 °F to evaluate the impact of additional heating at higher temperature for aged O-rings. Fixture #20 failed after 3 months while fixture #18 failed after 9 months at 350 °F. These O-rings demonstrated that aged and in-service O-rings can continue to be used, even at higher temperatures, after being in storage, and their leak performance are consistent with other samples at 350 °F. There has been one GLT O-ring fixture which failed after 13.4 years of aging at 200 °F. However, 20 other GLT O-rings aging at 200 °F have remained leak-tight for over 16.9 years and remain in test. There are two GLT O-ring fixtures at 270 °F; one fixture has failed after 12.9 years while the other fixture remains in test after 12.5 years. All GLT-S O-ring fixtures aged at 300 °F or above have failed their leak test. No failures have yet been observed in GLT-S O-ring fixtures aging at 250 °F for 14.9 years, while one GLT-S O-ring fixture failed after 12.4 years at 200 °F. The leak testing data to date suggest the GLT and GLT-S O-rings aging in the K-Area Complex (KAC) storage at temperatures of 158 °F might maintain a leak-tight seal for up to 59 years. Data from the O-ring fixtures are generally consistent with results from compression stress-relaxation testing and provide confidence in the predictive models based on those results. However, uncertainty exists in extrapolating these elevated temperature results to the lower temperatures of interest for normal storage in KAC. The collective data from these test efforts suggest the minimum O-ring service life at KAC normal storage conditions should be at least 34 years for GLT and GLT-S O-rings. Measurement of compression set in O-rings removed from failed fixtures, compared to that from KAC surveillance O-rings, indicate significant margin remains for O-rings still in service in 9975 packages in KAC. Aging and periodic leak testing will continue for the remaining 24 mock-up PCV fixtures.

Ring Pull Strain Analysis Version 1.1

This report details an analysis package, Ring Pull Strain Analysis (RPSA), that can be used to present and quantify digital image correlation (DIC) data as it relates to a gaugeless ring pull test. Gaugeless ring pull is a testing technique for mechanical testing of small annular samples, usually cut from a thin-walled tube. DIC data is often necessary for this kind of test because bending moments present on the ring cause a non-uniform strain distribution and localized measurements are necessary. In addition, the annular geometry of a ring lends itself to a polar representation, which is not present with typical DIC analysis methods. RPSA was made to calculate and plot the polar representation of strain from standard pre-processed DIC data of a gaugeless ring pull test. Further analysis can be done on ring pull including a quasi-uniaxial tensile analysis and coating analysis, which are also performed by RPSA. In addition, due to the universality of DIC plotting and ring pull test analysis, RPSA can accommodate a wide variety of tests, though it is tailored for ring pull testing. This report details how RPSA works, including the theory, assumptions, and logic behind the calculations and the structure of the program.

Dual-energy electron storage ring

A dual-energy electron storage ring is a novel concept initially proposed to cool hadron beams at high energies. The design consists of two closed rings operating at significantly different energies: the low-energy ring and the high-energy ring. These two rings are connected by an energy recovery linac (ERL) that provides the necessary energy difference. The ERL features superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities that first accelerate the beam from the low energy E L to the high energy E H and then decelerate the beam from E H to E L in the next pass. The different SRF cavities in the ERL section can be adjusted based on the applications. In this paper, we present a possible layout of a dual-energy electron storage ring. The preliminary optics of the ring is designed to optimize chromaticity correction, dynamic aperture, momentum aperture, beam lifetime, radiation damping, and intrabeam scattering effects. The primary focus of this paper is on the stability conditions and beam dynamics studies associated with this storage ring. Published by the American Physical Society 2024

Enhanced chloroplast FtsZ-ring constriction by the ARC6–ARC3 module in Arabidopsis

Chloroplast division, a process tightly linked to the energy demands of plants, is initiated by the formation of the stromal filamenting temperature-sensitive Z (FtsZ) ring. The Z ring is highly dynamic, and its constriction provides the essential force for chloroplast division. However, the regulatory mechanisms governing Z-ring dynamics and constriction remain poorly understood. Here, we report that the chloroplast inner envelope membrane (IEM) protein ACCUMULATION AND REPLICATION OF CHLOROPLASTS6 (ARC6) interacts with the chloroplast stromal protein ARC3, and this interaction is negatively regulated by the conserved J-like domain of ARC6. ARC3 is found both distributed throughout the stroma and localized to a ring-like structure at the chloroplast division site. We demonstrate that ARC6 recruits ARC3 to the division site to form a ring-like structure, likely through direct interaction. This ARC6–ARC3 interaction enables ARC3 to bind FtsZs. Furthermore, we show that the ARC6–ARC3 complex significantly promotes the dynamics of chloroplast Z rings reconstituted in a heterologous system. Finally, the constriction of these reconstituted Z rings is markedly enhanced by ARC6–ARC3. Our findings reveal a regulatory mechanism that governs Z-ring dynamics and constriction, shedding light on the molecular mechanisms underlying chloroplast division.

S 8 ring content in liquid sulfur determined from x-ray diffraction

The S 8 ring content in liquid sulfur has been determined from the 4.47 Å peak in the x-ray pair distribution function over the temperature range −55 °C –330 °C. This peak represents the characteristic 3rd and 4th nearest atom-atom distances across an S 8 -ring. Three procedures were used to calculate the S 8 -ring fraction; scaling to crystalline β-S, a linear combination fit and a direct integration method. All methods gave similar values, indicating that approximately one third of the S 8 -rings break up upon melting into a distribution of short chains with an average length of 5 ± 2 atoms. Our results contradict established models of low temperature sulfur that indicate below the λ-transition the liquid comprises almost entirely of S8-rings. In addition, we find the S 8 -ring fraction increases to 76 ± 10% at −30 °C in the supercooled liquid, and decreases to 23% ± 3% at 330 °C in the high temperature melt. First principle molecular dynamics calculations confirm the onset of dynamic ring distortion via broad bond angle distributions, associated with the interstitial region between the first and second peaks in the pair distribution function. Our results are consistent with the presence of a propensity of short chains in the low temperature liquid, that are required for the bond switching mechanism responsible for the polymerization process to occur at the λ-transition temperature, T λ .

Proton rings from late-forming ballistic sheath fields

Many laser-driven ion experiments have seen ring-like patterns in the proton angular distribution across a wide array of laser and target parameters. These rings can impede measurement due to the small acceptance angle of detectors and often inhibit potential applications. A myriad of explanations for their formation have been proposed, yet most studies attribute them to some aspect of the laser–plasma interaction. Using 3D particle-in-cell simulations, we show that late-forming strong radial electric fields can arise due to charge separation while the beam is in flight, long after the laser–plasma interaction. These fields can accelerate ions to significant divergences (≈ 10°) as they propagate away from the target. We compare our results to a recent experiment where a high intensity, short pulse laser (I 0 ≈ 10 21 W/cm 2 , τ ≈ 30 fs) was incident upon thin (≈ 1 μm) liquid crystal targets. Our simulations capture all the main features of the experimental results—namely, robust ring formation and larger rings for higher energy protons. In addition, we show that rings do not form for sufficiently short preplasma scale lengths. Finally, we develop a phenomenological model to describe the spatiotemporal structure of the radial electric field and use this to explain the proton rings' energy and preplasma dependencies.

Methods for Assessing Opportunities for Ring Dam Pumped Storage Hydropower

There is growing interest in new pumped storage hydropower (PSH) deployment to provide a range of grid flexibility, reliability, and resiliency services under an evolving and uncertain future power sector. The National Laboratory of the Rockies develops open PSH resource assessment and cost modeling tools to help evaluate PSH deployment opportunities, and this report describes expansions to those tools to consider an additional PSH system configuration - ring-dam reservoirs built on flat topographical features that are constructed from roller-compacted concrete material. This reservoir type is common among current PSH proposals and requires new methods to identify sites with this reservoir geometry throughout the United States and characterize the associated dam cost. Cost characterization for ring dam reservoirs required collecting historical dam cost data for earthen, rockfill, and roller-compacted concrete dams and regressing equations that relate costs between alternative materials. The ring dam site identification algorithm follows a 5-step procedure to identify circular geometry reservoirs. Once ring dam reservoirs are identified, they are then paired with potential dry-gully reservoirs, and the full set of potential paired reservoirs is cost-optimized to produce a least-cost set of potential PSH sites with no overlapping reservoirs. The resulting analysis found 1,663 ring-dam to dry-gully systems in the contiguous United States that are lower cost than any overlapping dry-gully to dry-gully systems, 29 in Alaska, and none in Hawaii or Puerto Rico. These systems constitute 1.5 TW of capacity in the contiguous United States and nearly 29 GW in Alaska, demonstrating that under suitable topography and head, ring-dam systems can provide cost-effective PSH opportunities. The greatest density of these opportunities are found in the intermountain west where there are mesas and flat land at bases of mountain ranges, but continued work could incorporate additional site characteristics or consider more complex reservoir shapes to find additional PSH deployment opportunities.

Multifrequency Models of Black Hole Photon Rings from Low-luminosity Accretion Disks

Images of black holes encode both astrophysical and gravitational properties. Detecting highly lensed features in images can differentiate between these two effects. We present an accretion disk emission model coupled to the Adaptive Analytical Ray Tracing (AART) code that allows a fast parameter space exploration of black hole photon ring images produced from synchrotron emission from 10 to 670 GHz. As an application, we systematically study several disk models and compute their total flux density, average radii, and optical depth. The model parameters are chosen around fiducial values calibrated to general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations and observations of M87*. For the parameter space studied, we characterize the transition between optically thin and thick regimes and the frequency at which the first photon ring is observable. Our results highlight the need for careful definitions of photon ring radius in the image domain, as in certain models the highly lensed photon ring is dimmer than the direct emission at certain angles. We find that at low frequencies the ring radii are set by the electron temperature, while at higher frequencies the magnetic field strength plays a more significant role, demonstrating how multifrequency analysis can also be used to infer plasma parameters. Lastly, we show how our implementation can qualitatively reproduce multifrequency black hole images from GRMHD simulations when adding time variability to our disk model through Gaussian random fields. This approach provides a new method for simulating observations from the Event Horizon Telescope and the proposed Black Hole Explorer space mission.

Intrinsic activation energies for ring contraction of allylic cations in zeolites

Cyclic carbocations are important intermediates in zeolite-catalyzed chemistries such as methanol-to-hydrocarbons conversion, naphthenes ring opening, or coke formation. While information about their thermodynamic stability exists, little is known about the kinetics of formation and transformation of cyclic carbocations in zeolites. To fill this knowledge gap, ring contraction of the 1,3,5,5-tetramethylcyclohexenyl cation (C 10 H 17 + ), a representative of 6-membered ring allylic cations, was investigated by in situ UV–vis and IR spectroscopy. Protonic forms of zeolites served as catalysts, at temperatures from 80 °C to 135 °C. Significant oligomerization and hydride transfer in BEA and FAU hampered kinetics analysis, whereas ring contraction dominated in the channels of MOR. The reactant cation, characterized by an electronic absorption at 314 nm and an allylic stretch at 1549 cm −1 , contracted to both a 1,3-alkyl-substituted cyclopentenyl cation (287 nm and 1506 cm −1 ) and a 1,2,3-alkyl-substituted cyclopentenyl cation (297 nm and 1489 cm −1 ). Collection of time-resolved IR spectra and fitting of the intensities with various kinetic models revealed a third transformation, which is expected from thermodynamics: the 1,3-alkyl-substituted cyclopentenyl cation isomerizes to the 1,2,3-alkyl-substituted cyclopentenyl cation. Series of IR spectra recorded at different temperatures delivered intrinsic activation enthalpies (entropies) in MOR of 67 ± 2 kJ mol −1 (−130 ± 6 J mol −1 K −1 ) and 90 ± 3 kJ mol −1 (−70 ± 8 J mol −1 K −1 ) for the contraction to 1,3- and 1,2,3-substituted species, and of 88 ± 5 kJ mol −1 (−84 ± 12 J mol −1 K −1 ) for the isomerization. The findings characterize one path – via contraction of larger rings – to different cyclopentenyl species in zeolites; and the associated, moderate activation energies suggest such transformations contribute to many complex hydrocarbon reaction networks.

Ring Size Effects on the Structures of Sandwich Compounds with a Stoichiometry of C 12 H 12 M (M = Ti–Ni)

Ring size effects on geometries and electronic structures were investigated for the (C n H n )M(C m H m ) (n = 4, 5, or 6; m = 8, 7, or 6; m + n = 12; M = Ti–Ni) systems using density functional theory. The lowest-energy C 12 H 12 M structures for the early transition metals titanium, vanadium, and chromium are the experimentally known singlet (η 5 -C 5 H 5 )Ti(η 7 -C 7 H 7 ), doublet (η 5 -C 5 H 5 )V(η 7 -C 7 H 7 ), and singlet (η 6 -C 6 H 6 ) 2 Cr, respectively. The likewise experimentally known singlet (η 6 -C 6 H 6 ) 2 Ti, doublet (η 6 -C 6 H 6 ) 2 V, and singlet (η 5 -C 5 H 5 )Cr(η 7 -C 7 H 7 ) are the secondlowest- energy structures with only a small energy difference between the two vanadium structures. For the later transition metals, dibenzenemetal complexes are the lowest-energy C 12 H 12 M species with two fully bonded hexahapto benzene rings in the lowest-energy manganese and iron derivatives and one hexahapto and one dihapto benzene ring in the lowest-energy cobalt and nickel derivatives. The lowest-energy (C 5 H 5 )M(C 7 H 7 ) structures for the later transition metals iron, cobalt, and nickel have partially bonded nonplanar C 7 H 7 rings with one or two uncomplexed C=C bonds. The (C 4 H 4 )M(C 8 H 8 ) (M = Ti–Ni) structures with the metal sandwiched between four- and eight-membered rings were found to be much higher in energy than their (C 5 H 5 )M(C 7 H 7 ) and (C 6 H 6 ) 2 M isomers.

Elastomer Mechanics of Cross-Linked Linear-Ring Polymer Blends

Cross-linking a blend of linear and ring polymers creates a new topology-based dual-network elastomer in which the two components differ significantly in their topology. We use molecular simulations and topological analysis to examine key mechanical properties as functions of ring polymer volume fraction Φ R . For Φ R < Φ R *, where the rings begin to overlap, the network shear modulus G and the maximum stretch ratio λ p are weakly dependent on Φ R . For Φ R > Φ R *, entanglements trapped in the network are diluted as the rings overlap, leading to a significant decrease in G and an increase in λ p with increasing Φ R . Here, the peak tensile stress, σ p , exhibits a maximum around Φ R *, indicating an enhancement of network strength due to the stronger cohesion from the entanglements between linear and ring polymers.

Comparison of the Distribution of the In Situ Ring Current Density Based on Magnetic Field Observations From THEMIS, MMS and Cluster

Abstract We review and extend previous work on the ring current density distribution by applying the curlometer technique to multi‐spacecraft magnetic field data on different spatial scales, directly comparing the results of three space missions: Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS), The Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) and Cluster, that have so far accrued decades of data on a range of spatial separation scales. We suggest that the statistical results of Cluster data over two decades can illustrate well the overall form of the ring current (in the ring plane), but can underestimate the current density, while THEMIS (partially) and MMS are able to observe the detailed structure of the ring current and indeed show different behavior on some (smaller) spatial scales. These results suggest that, in addition to the local time and radial form, reported previously, the morphology of the ring current may also depend on magnetic latitude, as influenced by the tilt angle between the inner and outer magnetic fields.

Unified understanding of the impact of semiflexibility, concentration, and molecular weight on macromolecular-scale ring diffusion

Conformationally fluctuating, globally compact macromolecules such as polymeric rings, single-chain nanoparticles, microgels, and many-arm stars display complex dynamic behaviors due to their rich topological structure and intermolecular organization. Synthetic rings are hybrid objects with conformations that display both ideal random walk and compact globular features, which can serve as models of genomic DNA. To date, emphasis has been placed on the effect of ring molecular weight on their unusual behaviors. Here, we combine simulations and a microscopic force-level theory to build a unified understanding for how key aspects of ring dynamics depend on different tunable molecular properties including backbone rigidity, monomer concentration, degree of traditional entanglement, and molecular weight. Our large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of ring melts with very different backbone stiffnesses reveal unanticipated behaviors which agree well with our generalized theory. This includes a universal master curve for center-of-mass diffusion constants as a function of molecular weight scaled by a chemistry and thermodynamic state-dependent critical molecular weight that generalizes the concept of an entanglement cross-over for linear chains. The key physics is how backbone rigidity and monomer concentration induced changes of the entanglement length, interring packing, degree of interpenetration, and liquid compressibility slow down space-time dynamic-force correlations on macromolecular scales. A power law decay of the center-of-mass diffusion constant with inverse molecular weight squared is the first consequence, followed by an ultraslow activated hopping transport regime. Our results set the stage to address slow dynamics and kinetic arrest in different families of compact synthetic and biological polymeric systems.

Measuring Topological Constraint Relaxation in Ring-Linear Polymer Blends

Polymers are an effective test bed for studying topological constraints in condensed matter due to a wide array of synthetically available chain topologies. When linear and ring polymers are blended together, emergent rheological properties are observed as the blend can be more viscous than either of the individual components. This emergent behavior arises since ring-linear blends can form long-lived topological constraints as the linear polymers thread the ring polymers. Here, in this work, we demonstrate how the Gauss linking integral can be used to efficiently evaluate the relaxation of topological constraints in ring-linear polymer blends. For majority-linear blends, the relaxation rate of topological constraints depends primarily on reptation of the linear polymers, resulting in the diffusive time τ d,R for rings of length N R blended with linear chains of length N l to scale as τ d,R ~ N$^2_R$N$^{3.4}_L$.

Half-life determination of heavy ions in a storage ring considering feeding and depleting background processes

Heavy-ion storage rings have relatively large momentum acceptance which allows for multiple ion species to circulate at the same time. This needs to be considered in radioactive decay measurements of highly charged ions, where atomic charge exchange reactions can significantly alter the intensities of parent and daughter ions. In this study, we investigate this effect using the decay curves of ion numbers in the recent 205 Tl 81+ bound-state beta decay experiment conducted using the Experimental Storage Ring at GSI Darmstadt. To understand the intricate dynamics of ion numbers, we present a set of differential equations that account for various atomic and nuclear reaction processes—bound state beta decay, atomic electron recombination and capture, and electron ionization. By incorporating appropriate boundary conditions, we develop a set of differential equations that accurately simulate the decay curves of various simultaneously stored ions in the storage ring: 205 Tl 81+ , 205 Pb 81+ , 205 Pb 82+ , 200 Hg 79+ , and 200 Hg 80+ . Through a quantitative comparison between simulations and experimental data, we provide insights into the detailed reaction mechanisms governing stored heavy ions within the storage ring. Our approach effectively models charge-changing processes, reduces the complexity of the experimental setup, and provides a simpler method for measuring the decay half-lives of highly charged ions in storage rings.
