Attaining the PeV frontier of the cosmic ray spectrum in space with HERD

The High Energy cosmic-Radiation Detection facility (HERD) is a calorimetric experiment planned to be launched in 2027. It will be operational for at least 10 years on board the China Space Station. With HERD we will measure the energy flux of cosmic proto ...

Limit on the intergalactic magnetic field from the ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray hotspot in the Perseus-Pisces region

Andrii Neronov, Oleg Kalashev

The Telescope Array Collaboration has reported an evidence for existence of a source of ultrahigh energy cosmic ray events in Perseus-Pisces supercluster. We show that the mere existence of such a source imposes an upper bound on the strength of intergalac ...

Validation of 2D T e and n e measurements made with Helium imaging spectroscopy in the volume of the TCV divertor

Basil Duval, Patrick Blanchard, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Artur Perek, Dmytry Mykytchuk, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Hugo De Oliveira, Filippo Bagnato, Lorenzo Martinelli, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno, Claudia Colandrea, Nicola Offeddu

Multi-spectral imaging of helium atomic emission (HeMSI) has been used to create 2D poloidal maps of T-e and ne in TCV's divertor. To achieve these measurements, TCV's MANTIS multispectral cameras (Perek et al 2019 Rev. Sci. Instrum. 90 123514) simultaneou ...

Essay: Overcoming the Obstacles to a Magnetic Fusion Power Plant

Ambrogio Fasoli

Fusion occurs when light nuclei combine to form heavier nuclei. The energy released in this process powers the stars and can provide humankind with a safe, sustainable, and clean source of baseload electricity, a valuable tool in the fight against climate ...

Predicting hot-electron free energies from ground-state data

Michele Ceriotti, Federico Grasselli, Chiheb Ben Mahmoud

Machine-learning potentials are usually trained on the ground-state, Born-Oppenheimer energy surface, which depends exclusively on the atomic positions and not on the simulation temperature. This disregards the effect of thermally excited electrons, that i ...

Exploring the salt-cocrystal continuum with solid-state NMR using natural-abundance samples: implications for crystal engineering

Jayasubba Reddy Yarava

There has been significant recent interest in differentiating multicomponent solid forms, such as salts and cocrystals, and, where appropriate, in determining the position of the proton in the X-H center dot center dot center dot A-Y X-center dot center do ...

Indirect detection of nitrogen-14 in solid-state NMR spectroscopy

Simone Cavadini

This thesis describes new methods for the detection of 14N nuclei by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. So far, the low natural abundance (0.4 %) 15N isotope has been widely used to study nitrogen-containing samples because of its spin-1/2 nature. The ...

Biomimetic catalysis with immobilized transition metal complexes

Alexander Schiller

The tetradentate chelate ligand tris[(1-vinylimidazol-2-yl)methyl]amine (10) was synthesized in five steps from commercially available starting materials. Upon reaction with MCl2 (M = Zn, Cu, Ni, Co) in the presence of NH4PF6, the complexes [M(10)Cl]PF6 (M ...

Stability properties of anisotropic pressure stellarator plasmas with fluid and noninteractive energetic particles

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Jonathan Graves, Trach-Minh Tran

The three-dimensional (3-D) VMEC code has been modified to model an energetic species with a variant of a Bi-Maxwellian distribution function that satisfies the constraint B . del F-h = 0, and the 3-D TERPSICHORE stability code has been extended to investi ...

Predicting internal protein dynamics from structures using coupled networks of hindered rotators

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Daniel Abergel

Internal motions in proteins, such as oscillations of internuclear vectors u(NiHiN) of amide bonds about their equil. position, can be characterized by a local order parameter. This dynamic parameter can be detd. exptl. by measuring the longitudinal and tr ...
