A New Probability Table Methodology with Covariances on Probability Tables

Through this work, we test a new methodology of evaluating probability tables informed by a combination of physics models and experimental data. This methodology uses generalized least squares to produce a joint mean and covariance for average cross sections and probability tables. This methodology has been tested and validated using total Monte Carlo. Attempts were made to parameterize the probability table using a formulation provided in. Although the normal inverse Gaussian fit was successful for the total cross section probability distribution, the rational-function fit to the capture, inelastic, and fission cross sections was unsuccessful due to time constraints.

“One Table to Rule Them All”: How a Single Table can Enable Extensive Insights, Analytics and Assessment on Human Mobility Data

While much research has been conducted in Human Mobility Science, most studies on the analytics/insights part generally focus on one of the following: processing and analytics on human stop-trip behavior, design of individual mobility metrics (often in silos), calculation and characterization of only a handful (typically 5-6) of human mobility metrics on geospatial-temporal human mobility data of interest. Although human mobility research offers a vast and diverse array of available metrics, most individual studies typically compute only a small subset of five or six metrics at a time when analyzing trajectory datasets of human mobility across different areas of interest. This paper is motivated by the critical need to repeatedly compute an extensive array of human mobility metrics across several trajectory datasets and perform individual metric-level benchmarking to establish a new, standardized Test and Evaluation (T&E) suite for the field of Human Mobility Science. We first present our findings on the minimal yet sufficient pre-processing required to reliably and efficiently compute a wide range of human mobility metrics. The key findings are specifically related to the proposed Composite Stop Locations table, which serves as a core pre-processing data layer. Subsequently, we present a case study demonstrating how the Composite Stop Locations table facilitates computation of at least 14 distinct human mobility metrics (unlike 5-6 different set of metrics used for studies in the literature) using the popular and open-source OpenPFLOW dataset. Finally, we have also presented an example of our benchmarking methodology to evaluate the quality and performance of the trajectory dataset of interest, assessed across multiple human mobility metrics.

MaTableGPT: GPT‐Based Table Data Extractor from Materials Science Literature

Abstract Efficiently extracting data from tables in the scientific literature is pivotal for building large‐scale databases. However, the tables reported in materials science papers exist in highly diverse forms; thus, rule‐based extractions are an ineffective approach. To overcome this challenge, the study presents MaTableGPT, which is a GPT‐based table data extractor from the materials science literature. MaTableGPT features key strategies of table data representation and table splitting for better GPT comprehension and filtering hallucinated information through follow‐up questions. When applied to a vast volume of water splitting catalysis literature, MaTableGPT achieves an extraction accuracy (total F1 score) of up to 96.8%. Through comprehensive evaluations of the GPT usage cost, labeling cost, and extraction accuracy for the learning methods of zero‐shot, few‐shot, and fine‐tuning, the study presents a Pareto‐front mapping where the few‐shot learning method is found to be the most balanced solution owing to both its high extraction accuracy (total F1 score >95%) and low cost (GPT usage cost of 5.97 US dollars and labeling cost of 10 I/O paired examples). The statistical analyses conducted on the database generated by MaTableGPT revealed valuable insights into the distribution of the overpotential and elemental utilization across the reported catalysts in the water splitting literature.

Approaching the Lower Temporal Limit of Laser‐Produced Plasma Sources for Table‐Top Soft X‐Ray NEXAFS Measurements

Abstract The increasing popularity of time‐resolved X‐ray absorption measurements for understanding dynamics in molecular and material systems has led to many advances in table‐top sources for pulsed X‐rays. We report on a table‐top laser‐produced plasma (LPP) source that can perform soft X‐ray (SXR), near‐edge X‐ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) measurements using a laser source with 23 ps pulse duration. The spectrometer's key specifications, such as brilliance, resolution, and stability, are characterized against the more commonly used longer‐pulse‐duration LPP sources. The 23 ps laser produced approximately an order of magnitude weaker SXR flux than the 8 ns laser for a higher power density due to the smaller total energy absorbed by the plasma. The increased repetition rate, as well as the use of a high line‐density X‐grating, and a self‐referencing scheme still allowed for NEXAFS measurements of Si 3 N 4 and TiO 2 thin films with 2.5 minute acquisition times, a resolving power of E/ΔE=424, and a signal‐to‐noise ratio of 100. It was observed that degradation of the gas jet nozzle led to long‐term instability of the source, which can be remediated using alternative nozzle designs. This work demonstrates the feasibility of achieving higher temporal resolution in future time‐resolved X‐ray absorption measurements using table‐top LPP sources.

Unified architecture for quantum lookup tables

Quantum access to arbitrary classical data encoded in unitary black-box oracles underlies interesting data-intensive quantum algorithms, such as machine learning or electronic structure simulation. The feasibility of these applications depends crucially on gate-efficient implementations of these oracles, which are commonly some reversible versions of the Boolean circuit for a classical lookup table. Here, we present a general parametrized architecture for quantum circuits implementing a lookup table that encompasses all prior work in realizing a continuum of optimal trade-offs between qubits, non-Clifford gates, and error resilience, up to logarithmic factors. Our architecture assumes only local 2D connectivity, yet recovers results, with the appropriate parameters, polylogarithmic error scaling. We also identify regimes, such as simultaneous sublinear scaling, in all parameters. These results enable tailoring implementations of the commonly used lookup table primitive to any given quantum device with constrained resources.

Microbial community data from throughfall exclusion experiment: Metadata, SI, community composition, LefSe, and FunGuilR data tables from PARCHED Panama tropical forest soils, 2024-2025

Soil contains more carbon (C) than terrestrial vegetation and the atmosphere combined, with some of the largest terrestrial C stocks in tropical rainforests. Soil microbes decompose organic matter, playing a vital role in the storage or loss of soil C. With climate change, drought conditions are predicted to increase in many tropical regions, including both chronic drying and extended drought, potentially influencing these processes. This project explored the effects of chronic and seasonal drying on soil microbial communities across four distinct tropical forests in a long-term drying experiment. We investigated the effects of a chronic drying manipulation on soil microbial community abundance and variation across different forests and seasons. We also compared findings with previously published data from these forests after short-term drying. This project used soils from a long-term drying experiment established in 2018 across four seasonal lowland forests in Panama. Soils were collected from 0 – 10 cm depths during three seasonal periods in control and drying plots in 2024 and 2025 from a total of 32 plots (n = 4 per forest per treatment). The forests varied in baseline rainfall and soil fertility. We calculated alpha and beta diversity indices and compared taxonomic community composition. We found significant biogeographic variation in microbial diversity and taxonomy, with significant differences across the forests and significant effects of the drying treatment. Metadata and sample IDs are within Metadata_16S.csv and Metadata_ITS.csv. Relative abundance tables of every sample at every season are shown in the Excel workbooks 16S Relative Abundance.xlsx and ITS Relative Abundance.xlsx. They are then also shown in CSV files by each taxonomic level. Linear discriminant analysis effect size (LefSe) tables are shown for the full 16S and ITS datasets (n = 96), subsets for every site at every season (n = 8), and then for the forests with each plot merged by season (n = 8). FunGuildR data table of ITS data is uploaded.

1016516285-AA - Handling Frame Assembly Table Structural and Seismic Analysis

Within the NIF (National Ignition Facility) sustainment project, LLNL is replacing all 1,728 blast shields with new ones. Before the new blast shield glass can be installed on NIF, it must pass through the AMOL (Amplifier Main Optics Loop). The AMOL process involves cleaning and coating the glass, assembling it into a Line Replaceable Unit (LRU), and performing testing and inspection. This work will be conducted in the OPFX cleanroom facility (Building 391, Room 1250) and requires several pieces of custom equipment. One key piece of equipment within the loop is the Handling Frame Assembly Table (see Figure 1.1). Its purpose is to assist operators in installing the blast shield glass into handling frames (1014442709) (see Figure 1.2). The table is also used to store handling frame assembly components. The primary components stored are the L-frames (1015208271), which are kept in a drawer underneath the table (see Figure 1.3). The purpose of this safety note is to ensure that the system does not pose a risk of injury to personnel during a seismic event. The system owner is OMST Engineering & Maintenance.

ETHOS: An automated framework to generate multi-fidelity constitutive data tables and propagate uncertainties to hydrodynamic simulations

Accurate constitutive data, such as equations of state and plasma transport coefficients, are necessary for reliable hydrodynamic simulations of plasma systems such as fusion targets, planets, and stars. Here, we develop a framework for automatically generating transport-coefficient tables using a parameterized model that incorporates data from both high-fidelity sources (e.g., density functional theory calculations and reference experiments) and lower-fidelity sources (e.g., average-atom and analytic models). The framework incorporates uncertainties from these multi-fidelity sources, generating ensembles of optimally diverse tables that are suitable for uncertainty quantification of hydrodynamic simulations. We illustrate the utility of the framework with magnetohydrodynamic simulations of magnetically launched flyer plates, which are used to measure material properties in pulsed-power experiments. We explore how changes in the uncertainties assigned to the multi-fidelity data sources propagate to changes in simulation outputs and find that our simulations are most sensitive to uncertainties near the melting transition. The presented framework enables computationally efficient uncertainty quantification that readily incorporates new high-fidelity measurements or calculations and identifies plasma regimes where additional data will have high impact.

Pressure Transducer Measurement Variability in Deep Wells Screened Across the Water Table

Abstract Automated water level measurements collected using vented pressure transducers in deep wells screened across the water table may exhibit a greater response to barometric pressure changes than the true water level. The cause was hypothesized to be disequilibrium in barometric pressure between the wellbores and land surface due to air exchange with the deep vadose zone. In this study, vented and nonvented pressure transducers were installed and operated simultaneously in two deep wells screened across the water table. A vent tube open to the atmosphere at land surface allowed for barometric compensation of the vented transducers. Two nonvented transducers were installed in each well, one submerged in the water and one above the water surface. The difference in readings allowed for barometric compensation. Manual measurements were also collected. It was confirmed that measurements from the vented transducers exhibited greater variability in response to barometric pressure changes than the nonvented transducers and manual measurements. Comparison of the downhole barometric pressure measurements to values from a nearby meteorology station showed the response in the wells to changes in barometric pressure was time‐lagged and attenuated. Thus, the reference pressure from land surface supplied to the vented transducers was not representative of the air pressure within the wells. This caused fluctuations of the transducer readings in response to barometric pressure changes to be greater than the true water level change. This issue can be resolved by the use of nonvented pressure transducers.

IMS Rapid Response 2024 Summary Report: A Machine Learning Potential for the Periodic Table

Stockpile stewardship and nuclear waste remediation are inherently chemically complex, involving practically the full diversity of the periodic table, but existing methods are too expensive or not functional for a large diversity of atom types. Overall, the field of machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) has advanced dramatically in 2024 with large high-accuracy datasets existing for bulk, surface, and organic chemical systems and new online leaderboards for diverse chemistry. To participate in, and bring LANL interests into this ecosystem, here, we have built upon existing technologies created by LANL to create a framework capable of creating machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) for over 90 atom types. Our results have created a massively diverse coordination complex training dataset more than 3 times the size of existing datasets, parallelized MLIP training over multiple GPUs, enabling the training of an MLIP spanning the periodic table at 20 times the speed of prior training on 32 GPUs. These advances are substantial towards creation on foundational MLIPs for LANL-specific application areas.
