AB A class of tunable visible and near-infrared donor acceptor Stenhouse adduct (DASA) photoswitches were efficiently synthesized in two to four steps from commercially available starting materials with minimal purification. Using either Meldrum's or barbituric acid "acceptors" in combination with aniline-based "donors", an absorption range spanning from 450 to 750 nm is obtained. Additionally, photoisomerization results in complete decoloration for all adducts, yielding fully transparent, colorless solutions and films. Detailed investigations using density functional theory, nuclear magnetic resonance, and visible absorption spectroscopies provide valuable insight into the unique structure property relationships for this novel class of photoswitches. As a final demonstration, selective photochromism is accomplished in a variety of solvents and polymer matrices, a significant advantage for applications of this new generation of DASAs.

TI Energy Transfer Sensitization of Luminescent Gold Nanoclusters: More

AB Luminescent gold nanocrystals (AuNCs) are a recently-developed material with potential optic, electronic and biological applications. They also demonstrate energy transfer (ET) acceptor/sensitization properties which have been ascribed to Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and, to a lesser extent, nanosurface energy transfer (NSET). Here, we investigate AuNC acceptor interactions with three structurally/functionally-distinct donor classes including organic dyes, metal chelates and semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). Donor quenching was observed for every donor-acceptor pair although AuNC sensitization was only observed from metal-chelates and QDs. FRET theory dramatically underestimated the observed energy transfer while NSET-based damping models provided better fits but could not reproduce the experimental data. We consider additional factors including AuNC magnetic dipoles, density of excited-states, dephasing time, and enhanced intersystem crossing that can also influence ET. Cumulatively, data suggests that AuNC sensitization is not by classical FRET or NSET and we provide a simplified distance-independent ET model to fit such experimental data.

AB We present a study of ro-vibrational OH and CO emission from 21 disks around Herbig Ae/Be stars. We find that the OH and CO luminosities are proportional over a wide range of stellar ultraviolet luminosities. The OH and CO line profiles are also similar, indicating that they arise from roughly the same radial region of the disk. The CO and OH emission are both correlated with the far-ultraviolet luminosity of the stars, while the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) luminosity is correlated with the longer wavelength ultraviolet luminosity of the stars. Although disk flaring affects the PAH luminosity, it is not a factor in the luminosity of the OH and CO emission. These properties are consistent with models of UV-irradiated disk atmospheres. We also find that the transition disks in our sample, which have large optically thin inner regions, have lower OH and CO luminosities than non-transition disk sources with similar ultraviolet luminosities. This result, while tentative given the small sample size, is consistent with the interpretation that transition disks lack a gaseous disk close to the star.

AB I study the location of the gamma-ray emission in blazar jets by creating a Compton-scattering approximation that is valid for all anisotropic radiation fields in the Thomson through Klein-Nishina regimes, is highly accurate, and can speed up numerical calculations by up to a factor of similar to 10. I apply this approximation to synchrotron self-Compton, external Compton scattering of photons from the accretion disk, broad line region (BLR), and dust torus. I use a stratified BLR model and include detailed Compton-scattering calculations of a spherical and flattened BLR. I create two dust torus models, one where the torus is an annulus and one where it is an extended disk. I present detailed calculations of the photoabsorption optical depth using my detailed BLR and dust torus models, including the full angle dependence. I apply these calculations to the emission from a relativistically moving blob traveling through these radiation fields. The ratio of gamma-ray to optical flux produces a predictable pattern that could help locate the gamma-ray emission region. I show that the bright flare from 3C 454.3 in 2010 November detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope is unlikely to originate from a single blob inside the BLR. This is because it moves outside the BLR in a time shorter than the flare duration, although emission by multiple blobs inside the BLR is possible. Also, gamma-rays are unlikely to originate from outside of the BLR, due to the scattering of photons from an extended dust torus, since the cooling timescale would be too long to explain the observed short variability.

TI Experimental study of a compressive line sensing imaging system in a
turbulent environment
SO APPLIED OPTICS
LA English
DT Article
AB Turbulence poses challenges in many atmospheric and underwater surveillance applications. The compressive line sensing (CLS) active imaging scheme has been demonstrated in simulations and test tank experiments to be effective in scattering media such as turbid coastal water, fog, and mist. The CLS sensing model adopts the distributed compressive sensing theoretical framework that exploits both intrasignal sparsity and the highly correlated nature of adjacent areas in a natural scene. During sensing operation, the laser illuminates the spatial light modulator digital micromirror device to generate a series of one-dimensional binary sensing patterns from a codebook to encode the current target line segment. A single element detector photomultiplier tube acquires target reflections as the encoder output. The target can then be recovered using the encoder output and a predicted on-target codebook that reflects the environmental interference of original codebook entries. In this work, we investigated the effectiveness of the CLS imaging system in a turbulent environment. The development of a compact CLS prototype will be discussed, as will a series of experiments using various turbulence intensities at the Naval Research Lab's Simulated Turbulence and Turbidity Environment. The experimental results showed that the time-averaged measurements improved both the signal-to-noise radio and the resolution of the reconstructed image in the extreme turbulence environment. The contributing factors for this intriguing and promising result will be discussed. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America

ID SURFACES; DIFFRACTION; REALIZATION; LIQUID; WIRES
AB Adsorption of Au on Si(553) results in the self-assembly of highly ordered step arrays of one-dimensional (1D) Au atomic wires along the step direction. Charge transfer from the terrace to the step edge causes every third Si atom at the step edge to exhibit a partially filled dangling bond hosting a single fully spin-polarized electron which forms in an ordered 1D spin chain along the step. The interstep correlation of this threefold periodicity in neighboring Si step edges and the geometry of the unit cell has been determined by means of high-resolution spot profile analysis low-energy electron diffraction, scanning tunneling microscopy, and density functional theory. While the twofold periodicity of the Au wires exhibits a weak interwire interaction, leading to streaks in the diffraction pattern, the correlation of the Si step edge atoms is by far a stronger interaction, resulting in clear spots. The corresponding unit cell spanned by threefold ordered step edge atoms can be described as a centered structure which is magnetically frustrated and may stabilize a (two-dimensional) quantum spin liquid.

AB We report on preparation dependent properties observed in monolayer WS2 samples synthesized via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on a variety of common substrates (Si/SiO2, sapphire, fused silica) as well as samples that were transferred from the growth substrate onto a new substrate. The as-grown CVD materials (as-WS2) exhibit distinctly different optical properties than transferred WS2 (x-WS2). In the case of CVD growth on Si/SiO2, following transfer to fresh Si/SiO2 there is a similar to 50 meV shift of the ground state exciton to higher emission energy in both photoluminescence emission and optical reflection. This shift is indicative of a reduction in tensile strain by similar to 0.25%. Additionally, the excitonic state in x-WS2 is easily modulated between neutral and charged exciton by exposure to moderate laser power, while such optical control is absent in as-WS2 for all growth substrates investigated. Finally, we observe dramatically different laser power-dependent behavior for as-grown and transferred WS2. These results demonstrate a strong sensitivity to sample preparation that is important for both a fundamental understanding of these novel materials as well as reliable reproduction of device properties.

The flow sensor is composed of four silicon FPIs, one in the center with the other three equally distributed around it. The center FPI is heated by a cw laser at 980 nm, which is guided through the lead-in single mode fiber. The temperature structure established within the sensor head due to laser heating is a function of the flow vector (speed and direction), which can be deduced from the wavelength shifts of the four FPIs.

TI Characterization of Photodiode Nonlinearities by Output Frequency
Analysis
SO JOURNAL OF LIGHTWAVE TECHNOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
DE Microwave photonics; nonlinearity; photodiode
AB We introduce a new technique for characterizing nonlinear behavior in photodiodes and illustrate its use for second order intermodulation distortion (IMD). For a given operating point (bias voltage and dc current), we construct a frequency-dependent nonlinear coefficient and plot it versus the output frequency of the IMD product. We find that for large ranges of operating points, the nonlinear coefficient falls on the same single curve, regardless of whether it was a sum, high difference, or low difference frequency plan that created the tone. Additionally, we found evidence of scaling: Regions in which changes in the universal curve due to a change in bias voltage can be cancelled by a systematic change in the dc current. That is, the nonlinear coefficients for a family of bias/current pairs fall on the same curve in these regions. This method shows that standard characterization of nonlinearities, such as finding intercept points, can be efficiently organized. Furthermore, it implies that comparison of nonlinear behavior of different photodiodes can be made directly on a uniform basis.

AB Biomass can serve as a sustainable template for the synthesis of carbon materials but is limited by the intrinsic properties of the precursor organism. In this study we demonstrate that the properties of a fungal biotemplate can be tuned during cultivation, establishing a new electrode manufacturing process and ultimately improving the electrochemical performance of the biomass-derived electrode. More specifically, the carbon/nitrogen ratio of Neurospora crassa mycelia mats was shifted by 5-fold while generating cobalt nanoparticles into the hyphal structure originating from macroconidia spores. This shift was achieved through nitrate limitation and equal molar concentrations of Mg2+ and Co2+ in the growth media. The resulting mycelia mat was converted via a high temperature pyrolysis process (800 degrees C) to produce a freestanding cobalt and nitrogen codoped electrode material with no postmodification. Ultimately, nitrogen doping resulted in one of the highest recorded specific reversible capacity for a freestanding biomass-derived lithium-ion anode (400 mAh g(-1) at C/10). We observed an additional improvement in capacity to 425 mAh g(-1) with the incorporation of 3 wt % Co. Our results show how shaping the chemical characteristics of an electrode during the growth of the biotemplate allows for sustainable carbon-based material manufacturing from a living (self-assembled) material.

AB We report interband cascade vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (ICVCSELs) that operate in pulsed mode at temperatures up to 70 degrees C. Their emission at lambda approximate to 3.4 mu m extends considerably the previous longest wavelength of 3.0 mu m for an electrically-pumped vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser operating at room temperature. The output from mesas having diameters ranging from 30 to 60 mu m (with emission aperture diameters of 20-50 mu m) is circularly symmetric, and the threshold current densities at T = 25 degrees C are as low as 390 A/cm(2). However, the differential slope efficiencies are low, e.g., <= 50 mW/A at T = 25 degrees C, due to loss in the top and bottom mirrors and reduced current efficiency. The smallest device operates in a single spectral mode despite having an emission aperture much wider than the wavelength.

AB Low-mass white dwarfs (LMWDs) are believed to be exclusive products of binary evolution, as the universe is not old enough to produce them from single stars. Because of the strong tidal forces operating during the binary interaction phase, the remnant systems observed today are expected to have negligible eccentricities. Here, we report on the first unambiguous identification of an LMWD in an eccentric (e - 0.13) orbit around the millisecond pulsar PSR J2234+0511, which directly contradicts this picture. We use our spectra and radio-timing solution (derived elsewhere) to infer the WD temperature (T-eff = 8600 +/- 190 K), and peculiar systemic velocity relative to the local standard of rest (similar or equal to 31km s(-1)). We also place model-independent constraints on the WD radius (R-WD = 0.024(-0.002)(+0.004) R-circle dot) and surface gravity (log g = 7.11(-0.16)(+0.08) dex). The WD and kinematic properties are consistent with the expectations for low-mass X-ray binary evolution and disfavor a dynamic three-body formation channel. In the case of the high eccentricity being the result of a spontaneous phase transition, we infer a mass of similar to 1.60 M-circle dot for the pulsar progenitor, which is too low for the quark-nova mechanism proposed by Jiang et al., and too high for the scenario of Freire & Tauris, in which a WD collapses into a neutron star via a rotationally delayed accretion-induced collapse. We find that eccentricity pumping via interaction with a circumbinary disk is consistent with our inferred parameters. Finally, we report tentative evidence for pulsations that, if confirmed, would transform the star into an unprecedented laboratory for WD physics.

AB Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) coronal dimmings are often observed in response to solar eruptive events. These phenomena can be generated via several different physical processes. For space weather, the most important of these is the temporary void left behind by a coronal mass ejection (CME). Massive, fast CMEs tend to leave behind a darker void that also usually corresponds to minimum irradiance for the cooler coronal emissions. If the dimming is associated with a solar flare, as is often the case, the flare component of the irradiance light curve in the cooler coronal emission can be isolated and removed using simultaneous measurements of warmer coronal lines. We apply this technique to 37 dimming events identified during two separate two-week periods in 2011. plus an event on 2010 August 7, analyzed in a previous paper. to parameterize dimming in terms of depth and slope. We provide statistics on which combination of wavelengths worked best for the flare-removal method, describe the fitting methods applied to the dimming light curves, and compare the dimming parameters with corresponding CME parameters of mass and speed. The best linear relationships found are
nu(CME) [km/s] approximate to 2.36 x 10(6) [km/%] x s(dim) [%/s]
m(CME) [g] approximate to 2.59 x 10(15) [g/%] x root d(dim) [%].
These relationships could be used for space weather operations of estimating CME mass and speed using near-real-time irradiance dimming measurements.

ID RELATIVISTIC IONS; COLLIMATED BEAMS; PLASMA
AB We present results of energetic laser-ion acceleration from a tailored, near solid density gas target. Colliding hydrodynamic shocks compress a pure hydrogen gas jet into a 70 mu m thick target prior to the arrival of the ultraintense laser pulse. A density scan reveals the transition from a regime characterized by a wide angle, low-energy beam (target normal sheath acceleration) to one of a more focused beam with a high-energy halo (magnetic vortex acceleration). In the latter case, three-dimensional simulations show the formation of a Z pinch driven by the axial current resulting from laser wakefield accelerated electrons. Ions at the rear of the target are then accelerated by a combination of space charge fields from accelerated electrons and Coulombic repulsion as the pinch dissipates.

AB Novel methods were developed to generate and characterize surface structures formed from polymer segregation within a powder coating system. A blend of unique acrylic polyol resins and low concentrations of matting agent afforded a durable coating exhibiting consistent low reflectance. An enhanced synergistic effect was observed from the phase separation and domain formation of the two polymeric resins with varying pendent hydroxyl group functionality and the incorporated matting agents. Together the domains and incorporated matting agents produced a significantly lower reflectance coating than the matting agent in combination with either polymeric resin alone. The rigorous thermal, optical, and spectroscopic analysis of the pigmented coating and control coatings culminated in the complete characterization of polymeric phases within the resulting coatings. Raman-analysis of the control coatings via a distinct spectroscopic handle allowed for positive identification of the segregated polymer resins within the coating structure. Domains observed by optical microscopy within the control coating structure were chemically identified via Raman analysis as the high-hydroxyl content resin. Subsequent Raman mapping of the peak intensity over an entire cross-section provided consistent evidence for positive identification of the polymeric composition within the domain.

AB A family of 3,6-dinitropyrazolo[4,3-c]pyrazole-based energetic compounds was synthesized by using versatile N-functionalization strategies. Subsequently, nine ionic derivatives of the N,N-(3,6-dinitropyrazolo[4,3-c]pyrazole-1,4-diyl)dinitramidate anion were prepared by acid-base reactions and fully characterized by infrared, multinuclear NMR spectra, and elemental analysis. The structures of four of these compounds were further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Based on their different physical and detonation properties, these compounds exhibit promising potential as modern energetic materials and can be variously classified as green primary explosives, high-performance secondary explosives, fuel-rich propellants, and propellant oxidizers.

AB Using several-mJ energy pulses from a high-repetition rate (1/2 kHz), ultrashort (35 fs) pulsed laser interacting with a similar to 10 mu m diameter stream of free-flowing heavy water (D2O), we demonstrate a 2.45MeV neutron flux of 10(5)/s. Operating at high intensity (of order 10 19 W/cm(2)), laser pulse energy is efficiently absorbed in the pre-plasma, generating energetic deuterons. These collide with deuterium nuclei in both the bulk target and the large volume of low density D2O vapor surrounding the target to generate neutrons through d(d,n)(3) He reactions. The neutron flux, as measured by a calibrated neutron bubble detector, increases as the laser pulse energy is increased from 6 mJ to 12 mJ. A quantitative comparison between the measured flux and the results derived from 2D-particle-in-cell simulations shows comparable neutron fluxes for laser characteristics similar to the experiment. The simulations reveal that there are two groups of deuterons. Forward moving deuterons generate deuterium-deuterium fusion reactions in the D2O stream and act as a point source of neutrons, while backward moving deuterons propagate through the low-density D2O vapor filled chamber and yield a volumetric source of neutrons.

AB This article describes the Distributed Interaction Campaign Model (DICM), an exploratory campaign analysis tool and asset allocation decision-aid for managing geographically distributed and swarming naval and air forces. The model is capable of fast operation, while accounting for uncertainty in an opponent's plan. It is intended for use by commanders and analysts who have limited time for model runs, or a finite budget. The model is purpose-built for the Pentagon's Office of Net Assessment, and supports analysis of the following questions: What happens when swarms of geographically distributed naval and air forces engage each other and what are the key elements of the opponents' force to attack? Are there changes to force structure that make a force more effective, and what impacts will disruptions in enemy command and control and wide-area surveillance have? Which insights are to be gained by fast exploratory mathematical/computational campaign analysis to augment and replace expensive and time-consuming simulations? An illustrative example of model use is described in a simple test scenario. (C) 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

AB The two-dimensional graphene-honeycomb structure can interact with the liquid crystal's (LC) benzene rings through - electron stacking. This LC-graphene interaction gives rise to a number of interesting physical and optical phenomena in the LC. In this paper, we present a combination of a review and original research of the exploration of novel themes of LC ordering at the nanoscale graphene surface and its macroscopic effects on the LC's nematic and smectic phases. We show that monolayer graphene films impose planar alignment on the LC, creating pseudo-nematic domains (PNDs) at the surface of graphene. In a graphene-nematic suspension, these PNDs enhance the orientational order parameter, exhibiting a giant enhancement in the dielectric anisotropy of the LC. These anisotropic domains interact with the external electric field, resulting in a non-zero dielectric anisotropy in the isotropic phase as well. We also show that graphene flakes in an LC reduce the free ion concentration in the nematic media by an ion-trapping process. The reduction of mobile ions in the LC is found to have subsequent impacts on the LC's rotational viscosity, allowing the nematic director to respond quicker on switching the electric field on and off. In a ferroelectric LC (smectic-C* phase), suspended graphene flakes enhance the spontaneous polarisation by improving the tilted smectic-C* ordering resulting from the - electron stacking. This effect accelerates the ferroelectric-switching phenomenon. Graphene can possess strain chirality due to a soft shear mode. This surface chirality of graphene can be transmitted into LC molecules exhibiting two types of chiral signatures in the LCs: an electroclinic effect (a polar tilt of the LC director perpendicular to, and linear in, an applied electric field) in the smectic-A phase, and a macroscopic helical twist of the LC director in the nematic phase. Finally, we show that a graphene-based LC cell can be fabricated without using any aligning layers and ITO electrodes. Graphene itself can be used as the electrodes as well as the aligning layers, obtaining an electro-optic effect of the LC inside the cell.

AB Debridement is an integral step in the orthopaedic management of traumatic wounds, from open soft tissue injuries and routine open fracture care to the management of extensive high-energy blast injuries. While the necessity of debridement has been well established, the level of energy and degree of contamination of blast wounds encountered in recent armed conflict has offered a challenge and a new opportunity for military surgeons to revisit the most recent literature to guide our practice with the best evidence currently available. While the core tenants of removing the nonviable tissue and preserving the viable to maintain the best functional outcome have not changed, new wound care therapies and advances in prosthetics and salvage techniques and the ability to rapidly evacuate casualties have changed the approach to care provided on the front lines. This paper seeks to review the core principles of debridement and guide treatment using evidence-based methods that can be applied to contaminated open injuries on the battlefront and disaster and intentional violence injuries abroad and at home.

ID NETWORK
AB We investigate low-dimensional examples of cyclic pursuit in a collective, wherein each agent employs a constant bearing (CB) steering law relative to exactly one other agent. For the case of three agents in the plane, we characterize relative equilibria and pure shape equilibria of associated closed-loop dynamics. Re-scaling time yields a reduction of phase space to two dimensions and effective tools for stability analysis. Study of bifurcation of a family of collinear equilibria dependent on a single CB control parameter reveals the presence of a rich collection of trajectories that are periodic in shape and undergo precession in physical space. For collectives in three dimensions, with an appropriate notion of CB pursuit strategy and corresponding steering law, the two-agent case proves to be explicitly integrable. These results suggest control schemes for small teams of mobile robotic agents engaged in area coverage tasks such as search and rescue, and raise interesting possibilities for behaviour in biological contexts.

AB Results of an experimental investigation of the skin friction for a range of rough surfaces in fully-developed, turbulent channel flow are presented. The fifteen surfaces were generated by grit blasting with various types and sizes of media. The Reynolds number (R-em) for the experiments based on the bulk mean velocity and the channel height spanned from 10,000-300,000. The shape of the roughness function (Delta U+) for all of these surfaces shows self-similarity with an effective roughness height (k(eff)(+)) indicating that a scale does exist to collapse results throughout the entire roughness function. The roughness function displays inflectional behavior in the transitionally-rough regime in a similar manner to the results of Nikuradse for uniform sand. The equivalent sand grain roughness height can be predicted using k(rms) and the skewness (Sk) of the probability density function of the roughness amplitude. A long-wavelength filtering procedure based on the Taylor microscale (lambda) of the roughness is presented, and it is recommended that roughness profiles be filtered at a scale of similar to 100 lambda.

Of the 60 patients reviewed who met the criteria, 97.5% of clients kept scheduled appointments after the birth of a healthy baby after a position dedicated to appointment compliance was put in place. Compliance was enhanced by calling and making scheduled visits to the client's home. Treating patients with respect was another reinforcement intentionally utilized and helped to facilitate compliance with mother-baby after care, compliance with prescribed medications, and follow-up appointments.

ID ENDOVASCULAR ANEURYSM REPAIR; POSITRON-EMISSION-TOMOGRAPHY; AORTOENTERIC
FISTULA; AORTIC-ANEURYSMS; INFECTION; ENDOLEAKS; MANAGEMENT; OCCLUSION;
DEVICE
AB Introduction: Abdominal aortic aneurysm(AAA) is a deadly condition, particularly with rupture. Emergency physicians provide vital frontline care to the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) has become the gold standard for treatment of AAA, but the management of EVAR complications is not well discussed in the emergency medicine literature. Objective of this review: The purpose of this article is to provide an emergency medicine-focused review of the complications of EVAR.
Discussion: Although many complications may arise after AAA repair, the most common include aortoenteric fistula, endoleak, limb ischemia, and graft infection. All potential complications should receive vascular surgery consultation and hemodynamic resuscitation. Aortoenteric fistula often presents nonspecifically with gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, abdominal pain, and vomiting. Computed tomography with intravenous contrast is required for diagnosis. An endoleak is defined by vascular flow outside of the graft. The optimal diagnostic modality includes triple phase computed tomographic scan (noncontrast, arterial, delayed phase). Limbischemia may occur before 2 months, or in a later period, with symptoms ranging from claudication to complete neurovascular compromise. Graft infection is most commonly due to Staphylococcus aureus, and imaging can suggest the diagnosis. Definitive diagnosis requires tissue or fluid sampling. Through an understanding of these complications, emergency physicians may improve patient outcomes.
Conclusions: With the growing use of EVAR, emergency physician exposure to complications of this procedure is increasing. Knowledge of the complication presentations, diagnoses, and management can play an integral role patient care. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB Spatially-explicit ecosystem models, such as Ecospace, Atlantis, and OSMOSE, are key tools for achieving ecosystem-based fisheries management in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). In spatially-explicit ecosystem models, trophic interactions strongly depend on the way functional group biomasses are allocated spatially, which conditions patterns of spatial overlap between predators, prey, and competitors. Here, we review realized and ongoing improvements in the spatial allocation of functional group biomasses in Ecospace and OSMOSE models of the West Florida Shelf ("WFS Reef fish Ecospace" and "OSMOSE-WFS") and in the Atlantis model of the GOM ("Atlantis-GOM"). A habitat capacity model, which defines the spatial distribution of functional groups dynamically based on environmental factors, was introduced in WFS Reef fish Ecospace. Moreover, generalized additive models (GAMs) relating biomasses to environmental predictors were developed to produce distribution maps for Atlantis-GOM and OSMOSE-WFS. WFS Reef fish Ecospace's habitat capacity model itself relies on GAMs to determine relationships between marine organisms and environmental parameters. Ongoing efforts include the development of a sophisticated GAM framework, using carefully chosen environmental predictors and a blending of available fisheries-independent and fisheries-dependent survey data. This GAM framework benefits from insights contributed by empiricists and fishers and will significantly enhance WFS Reef fish Ecospace's habitat capacity model and the distribution maps fed into Atlantis-GOM and OSMOSE-WFS. Ongoing efforts also include the construction of accurate fields of chlorophyll-a and plankton biomasses for WFS Reef fish Ecospace, Atlantis-GOM, and OSMOSE-WFS, employing a blending of ocean observations (satellite and in situ data) and outputs from a biogeochemical model.

AB Recently reported lidar observations have revealed a persistent wave activity in the Antarctic middle and upper atmosphere that has no counterpart in observations at midlatitude and low-latitude locations. The unusual wave activity suggests a geographically specific source of atmospheric waves with periods of 3-10h. Here we investigate theoretically the hypothesis that the unusual atmospheric wave activity in Antarctica is generated by the fundamental and low-order modes of vibrations of the Ross Ice Shelf (RIS). Simple models are developed to describe basic physical properties of resonant vibrations of large ice shelves and their coupling to the atmosphere. Dispersion relation of the long surface waves, which propagate in the floating ice sheet and are responsible for its low-order resonances, is found to be similar to the dispersion relation of infragravity waves in the ice-free ocean. The phase speed of the surface waves and the resonant frequencies determine the periods and wave vectors of atmospheric waves that are generated by the RIS resonant oscillations. The altitude-dependent vertical wavelengths and the periods of the acoustic-gravity waves in the atmosphere are shown to be sensitive to the physical parameters of the RIS, which can be difficult to measure by other means. Predicted properties of the atmospheric waves prove to be in a remarkable agreement with the key features of the observed persistent wave activity.

AB The distinctive spatial patterns of the ionosphere's total electron content (TEC) response to solar, seasonal, diurnal, and geomagnetic influences are determined across the globe using a new statistical model constructed from 2-hourly TEC observations from 1998 to 2015. The model combines representations of the physical solar EUV photon and geomagnetic activity drivers with solar-modulated sinusoidal parameterizations of four seasonal cycles and solar-modulated and seasonally modulated parameterizations of three diurnal cycles. The average absolute residual of the data-model differences is 2.1 total electron content unit, 1 TECU = 10(16) el m(-2) (TECU) (9%) and the root-mean-square error is 3.5 TECU (15%). Solar and geomagnetic variability, the semiannual oscillation and the diurnal and semidiurnal oscillations all impact TEC most at low magnetic latitudes where TEC itself maximizes, with differing degrees of longitudinal inhomogeneity. In contrast, the annual oscillation manifests primarily in the Southern Hemisphere with maximum amplitude over midlatitude South America, extending to higher southern latitudes in the vicinity of the Weddell Sea. Nighttime TEC levels in the vicinity of the Weddell Sea exceed daytime levels every year in Southern Hemisphere summer as a consequence of the modulation of the diurnal oscillations by the seasonal oscillations. The anomaly, which is present at all phases of the solar cycle, commences sooner and ends later under solar minimum conditions. The model minus data residuals maximize at tropical magnetic latitudes in four geographical regions similar to the ionosphere pattern generated by lower atmospheric meteorology. Enhanced residuals at northern midlatitudes during winter are consistent with an influence of atmospheric gravity waves.

AB The Tiny Ionospheric Photometer (TIP) is an ultraviolet nadir-viewing photometer that flew aboard the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and Climate (COSMIC, also known as FORMOSAT-3), which was launched on 14 April 2006. One TIP flew on each of the six COSMIC/FORMOSAT3 satellites; these compact instruments operated exclusively at nighttime and observed the O I 135.6nm emission that is a signature of the decay of the F region ionosphere and, as such, is a diagnostic of the ionospheric state. We describe the TIP instruments and their on-orbit operation. Additionally, some key science highlights of the mission are presented and discussed.

AB The danger posed by biological threat agents and the limitations of modern detection methods to rapidly identify them underpins the need for continued development of novel sensors. The application of nanomaterials to this problem in recent years has proven especially advantageous. By capitalizing on large surface/volume ratios, dispersability, beneficial physical and chemical properties, and unique nanoscale interactions, nanomaterial-based biosensors are being developed with sensitivity and accuracy that are starting to surpass traditional biothreat detection methods, yet do so with reduced sample volume, preparation time, and assay cost. In this review, we start with an overview of bioagents and then highlight the breadth of nanoscale sensors that have recently emerged for their detection.

AB MEKC has been used in conjunction with UV detection for identification and quantitation of high explosives in environmental samples. To ensure the compatibility of the technique with ESI-MS, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), a volatile micelle, was used. Separation of EPA Method 8330 Mixes A and B using various concentrations of the micelle showed that the 80 mM solution of PFOA was the optimum concentration for the separation of the explosives. MEKC analysis of explosives with ESI-MS under optimum micelle concentration provided excellent results indicating the compatibility of the method with ESI-MS. Finally, the MEKC-UV method was applied to the detection and quantitation of explosives in various environmental samples including water, sand, and soil. The results demonstrate that the MEKC method described herein is a viable technique for detection of explosives in environmental samples using UV detection, while maintaining the compatibility of the technique with MS detection without any modification to the separation method, if laboratories decided to pursue this route in the future.

AB Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) indicate 89% of Americans regularly consume caffeine, but these data do not include military personnel. This cross-sectional study examined caffeine use in Navy and Marine Corps personnel, including prevalence, amount of daily consumption, and factors associated with use. A random sample of Navy and Marine Corps personnel was contacted and asked to complete a detailed questionnaire describing their use of caffeine-containing substances, in addition to their demographic, military, and lifestyle characteristics. A total of 1708 service members (SMs) completed the questionnaire. Overall, 87% reported using caffeinated beverages >= 1 time/week, with caffeine users consuming a mean +/- standard error of 226 +/- 5 mg/day (242 +/- 7 mg/day for men, 183 +/- 8 mg/day for women). The most commonly consumed caffeinated beverages (% users) were coffee (65%), colas (54%), teas (40%), and energy drinks (28%). Multivariable logistic regression modeling indicated that characteristics independently associated with caffeine use (>= 1 time/week) included older age, white race/ethnicity, higher alcohol consumption, and participating in less resistance training. Prevalence of caffeine use in these SMs was similar to that reported in civilian investigations, but daily consumption (mg/day) was higher.

AB We use tracers to partition dissolved iron (dFe) into the contributions from each source within a numerical model of the iron cycle without perturbing the system. These contributions are further partitioned according to the time since injection into the ocean, which defines their iron-age spectrum and mean iron age. The utility of these diagnostics is illustrated for a family of inverse model estimates of the iron cycle, constrained by a data-assimilated circulation and available dFe measurements. The source contributions are compared with source anomalies defined as the differences between solutions with and without the source in question. We find that in the Southern Ocean euphotic zone, the hydrothermal and sediment contributions range from 15% to 30% of the total each, which the anomalies underestimate by a factor of similar to 2 because of the nonlinearity of scavenging. The iron age is only reset by scavenging and attains a mean of several hundred years in the Southern Ocean euphotic zone, revealing that aeolian iron there is supplied primarily from depth as regenerated dFe. Tagging iron according to source region and pathways shows that 70-80% of the aeolian dFe in the euphotic zone near Antarctica is supplied from north of 46 degrees S via paths that reach below 1 km depth. Hydrothermal iron has the oldest surface mean ages on the order of middepth ventilation times. A measure of uncertainty is provided by the systematic variations of our diagnostics across the family of iron cycle estimates, each member of which has a different aeolian source strength.

DE infrared sensing; photoconductive sensors; radio frequency switching

AB This paper describes a unique technique that implements photoconductive sensors in a radio frequency (RF) switching network designed to locate in real-time the position and intensity of IR radiation incident on a composite structure. In the implementation described here, photoconductive sensors act as rapid response switches in a two-layer RF network embedded in an FR-4 laminate. To detect radiation, phosphorous-doped silicon photoconductive sensors are inserted in GHz range RF transmission lines. By permitting signal propagation only when a sensor is illuminated, the RF signals are selectively routed from lower layer transmission lines to upper layer lines, thereby pinpointing the location and strength of incident radiation. Simulations based on a high frequency three-dimensional planar electromagnetics model are presented and compared to the experimental results. The experimental results are described for GHz range RF signal control for 300- and 180-mW incident energy from 975- to 1060-nm wavelength lasers, respectively, where upon illumination, RF transmission line signal output power doubled when compared to nonilluminated results. The experimental results are also reported for 100-W incident energy from a 1060-nm laser. Test results illustrate real-time signal processing would permit a structure to be controlled in response to incident radiation. (C) 2016 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE)

AB There have been many attempts to apply chaotic signals to communications or radar, but one obstacle has been that there is no effective way to recover chaotic signals from noise larger than the signal. In this work, we create "pseudo-chaotic" signals by concatenating dictionary sequences generated from a chaotic attractor. Because the number of dictionary sequences is finite, these pseudo-chaotic signals are not actually chaotic, but they can still contain some of the desirable properties of chaos. Using dictionary sequences allows the pseudo-chaotic signal to be recovered from noise using a correlation detector and a Viterbi decoder, so the signal can be recovered from noise or interference that is larger than the signal itself.

AB The field-reversed configuration heating experiment ( FRCHX) was designed to form closed-field-line magnetized target plasmas for magnetoinertial fusion and other high energy density plasma research. These plasmas are in a field-reversed configuration and are formed via a reversed-field theta pinch on an already magnetized background plasma. To extend the duration and temporal uniformity of the pinch, the capacitor bank driving the reversed-field discharge is crowbarred near the current peak. Four parallel rail-gap switches are used on the FRCHX for this application to ensure a low-inductance crowbar discharge path and to accommodate the large magnitude of the discharge current ( often greater than 1 MA). Historically, parallel operation of spark gap switches in a crowbarring arrangement has often proved to be difficult due to the very low voltage present on the bank and across the switches at the time of peak current. In a low-inductance design, triggering can be further complicated by the rapid collapse of what little voltage there is across the switches as soon as the first spark gap begins conduction. This paper reports on the efforts that were made to develop a low-inductance crowbar switch for the FRCHX and to ultimately enable successful triggering and operation of the four parallel rail-gap switches used in the crowbar. The design of the low-inductance parallel switch assembly is presented first, followed by a description of the triggering scheme employed to ensure conduction of all four switches.

AB Fast timing has emerged as a critical requirement for radiation detection in medical and high energy physics, motivating the search for scintillator materials with high light yield and fast time response. However, light emission rates from conventional scintillation mechanisms fundamentally limit the achievable time resolution, which is presently at least one order of magnitude slower than required for next-generation detectors. One solution to this challenge is to generate an intense prompt signal in response to ionizing radiation. In this paper, we present colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) as promising prompt photon sources. We investigate two classes of NCs: two-dimensional CdSe nanoplatelets (NPLs) and spherical CdSe/CdS core/giant shell quantum dots (GS QDs). We demonstrate that the emission rates of these NCs under pulsed X-ray excitation are much faster than traditional mechanisms in bulk scintillators, i.e. 5d-4f transitions. CdSe NPLs have a sub-100 ps effective decay time of 77 ps and CdSe/CdS GS QDs exhibit a sub-ns value of 849 ps. Further, the respective CdSe NPL and CdSe/CdS GS QD X-ray excited photoluminescence have the emission characteristics of excitons (X) and multiexcitons (MX), with the MXs providing additional prospects for fast timing with substantially shorter lifetimes.

AB Background: Full-thickness soft tissue defects from congenital absence or traumatic loss are difficult to surgically manage. Healing requires cell migration, organization of an extracellular matrix, inflammation, and wound coverage. PLCL (70: 30 lactide: caprolactone, Purac), poly(propylene glycol) nanofibrous scaffolds enhance cell infiltration in vitro. This study compares strength and tissue ingrowth of aligned and unaligned nanofibrous scaffolds to absorbable and permanent meshes. We hypothesize that PLCL nanofibrous grafts will provide strength necessary for physiological function while serving as a scaffold to guide native tissue regeneration in vivo.
Materials and methods: Abdominal wall defects were created in 126 rats followed by underlay implantation of Vicryl, Gore-Tex, aligned, or unaligned PLCL Nanofiber mesh. Specimens were harvested at 2, 6, and 12 wk for strength testing and 2, 12, and 24 wk for histopathologic evaluation. Specimens were graded for cellular infiltration, multinucleated giant cells (MNG), vascularity, and tissue organization. Mean scores were compared and analyzed with non-parametric testing.
Results: The PLCL grafts maintained structural integrity until at least 12 wk and exhibited substantial tissue replacement at 24 wk. At 12 wk, only the aligned PLCL had persistent cellular infiltration of the graft, whereas both aligned and unaligned PLCL grafts showed the presence of MNG. The presence of MNGs decreased in the aligned PLCL graft by 24 wk.
Conclusions: The aligned PLCL nanofiber mesh offers early strength comparable to Gore-Tex but breaks down and is replaced with cellular ingrowth creating a favorable option in management of complex surgical wounds or native soft tissue defects. Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB In our study, lignocellulose yarns were fabricated via natural fiber welding (NFW) into a robust, free-standing, sustainable catalyst for water treatment. First, a series of powder catalysts were created by loading monometallic palladium (Pd) and bimetallic palladium-copper (Pd-Cu) nanoparticles onto ball-milled yarn powders via incipient wetness (IW) followed by a gentle reduction method in hydrogen gas that preserved the natural fiber while reducing the metal ions to their zerovalent state. Material characterization revealed Pd preferentially reduced near the surface whereas Cu distributed more uniformly throughout the supports. Although no chemical bonding interactions were observed between the metals and their supports, small (5-10 nm), near-spherical crystalline nanoparticles were produced, and a Pd-Cu alloy formed on the surface of the supports. Catalytic performance was evaluated for each Pd-only and Pd-Cu powder catalyst via nitrite and nitrate reduction tests, respectively. Next, the optimized Pd-Cu linen powder catalyst was fiber-welded onto a macroporous linen yarn scaffold via NFW and its catalyst performance and reusability were evaluated. This fiber-welded catalyst reduced nitrate as effectively as the corresponding powder, and remained stable during five consecutive cycles of nitrate reduction tests. Although catalytic activity declined after the fiber-welded catalyst was left in air for several months, its reactivity could easily be regenerated by thermal treatment. Our research highlights how lignocellulose supported metal-based catalysts can be used for water purification, demonstrating a novel application of NFW for water treatment while presenting a sustainable approach to fabricate functional materials from natural fibers.

TI The Art Gallery Theorem, Revisited
SO AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL MONTHLY

DT Article
AB The art gallery theorem asserts that any polygon with n vertices can be protected by at most left perpendicular n/3 right perpendicular stationary guards. The original proof by Chvatal uses a nonroutine and nonintuitive induction. We give a simple inductive proof of a new, more general result, the constrained art gallery theorem: If V* and E* are specified sets of vertices and edges that must contain guards, then the polygon can be protected by at most left perpendicular ( n + 2 vertical bar V*vertical bar + | E*vertical bar) / 3 right perpendicular guards. Our result reduces to Chvatal's art gallery theorem when V* and E* are empty. We give a second short proof of this generalization in the spirit of Fisk's proof of the art gallery theorem using graph colorings.

AB The paths animals take while moving through their environments affect their likelihood of encountering food and other resources; thus, models of foraging behavior abound. To collect movement data appropriate for comparison with these models, we used time-lapse photography to track movements of a small, hardy, and easy-to-obtain organism, Aquilonastra anomala sea stars. We recorded the sea stars in a tank over many hours, with and without a food cue. With food present, they covered less distance, as predicted by theory; this strategy would allow them to remain near food. We then compared the paths of the sea stars to three common models of animal movement: Brownian motion, Levy walks, and correlated random walks; we found that the sea stars' movements most closely resembled a correlated random walk. Additionally, we compared the search performance of models of Brownian motion, a Levy walk, and a correlated random walk to that of a model based on the sea stars' movements. We found that the behavior of the modeled sea star walk was similar to that of the modeled correlated random walk and the Brownian motion model, but that the sea star walk was slightly more likely than the other walks to find targets at intermediate distances. While organisms are unlikely to follow an idealized random walk in all details, our data suggest that comparing the effectiveness of an organism's paths to those from theory can give insight into the organism's actual movement strategy. Finally, automated optical tracking of invertebrates proved feasible, and A. anomala was revealed to be a tractable, 2D-movement study system.

AB The Electra pulsed power system at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory uses laser triggered SF6 gas-insulated spark gaps to transfer energy to a high power electron beam diode. These 1-MV spark gaps have a charge transfer of 10 mC per shot operating at 5 pules per second (pps) utilizing electrodes with the potential durability of 300 000 pulses. During continuous repetitive switch operation, after a few thousand shots intermittent nonfire events occur with greater frequency approaching 100 000 shots. The nonfire events and the lack of reproducibility and reliability reduce the potential applications for laser triggered spark gaps. Therefore, the temporal evolution and the spatial evolution of the switch dynamics have been examined. Gated camera images, streak camera images, and interferometry are used to characterize the dynamics of single shots to directly compare to the dynamics during continuous operation. The streak camera images indicate that the switch dynamics are dependent on the repetition rate. For single shots and 1 pps operation (9000 continuous shots), no misfires (mistimings or nonfires) are observed in the switch. This observation is concomitant with a consistent and reproducible breakdown position and breakdown dynamics. At 5 pps, the variations in the laser breakdown position (preferentially toward cathode) and the laser breakdown emission intensity are observed. After several thousands of continuous shots, nonfire events are detected in small groups, before normal operation resumes. A temperature differential of at least 22.2 K (40 F) between the SF6 gas at the top of the housing and the bottom of the spark gap housing is observed. The onset of nonfire events is correlated with the hydrodynamic changes, from increased temperature, of the SF6 gas flow within the spark gap. A redesign of the spark gap along with adequate cooling to reduce the hydrodynamic flow and forces of the insulating SF6 gas would mitigate if not eliminate nonfire events.

AB Marine stratocumulus clouds often become decoupled from the vertical layer immediately above the ocean surface. This study contrasts cloud chemical composition between coupled and decoupled marine stratocumulus clouds for dissolved nonwater substances. Cloud water and droplet residual particle composition were measured in clouds off the California coast during three airborne experiments in July-August of separate years (Eastern Pacific Emitted Aerosol Cloud Experiment 2011, Nucleation in California Experiment 2013, and Biological and Oceanic Atmospheric Study 2015). Decoupled clouds exhibited significantly lower air-equivalent mass concentrations in both cloud water and droplet residual particles, consistent with reduced cloud droplet number concentration and subcloud aerosol (D-p>100nm) number concentration, owing to detachment from surface sources. Nonrefractory submicrometer aerosol measurements show that coupled clouds exhibit higher sulfate mass fractions in droplet residual particles, owing to more abundant precursor emissions from the ocean and ships. Consequently, decoupled clouds exhibited higher mass fractions of organics, nitrate, and ammonium in droplet residual particles, owing to effects of long-range transport from more distant sources. Sodium and chloride dominated in terms of air-equivalent concentration in cloud water for coupled clouds, and their mass fractions and concentrations exceeded those in decoupled clouds. Conversely, with the exception of sea-salt constituents (e.g., Cl, Na, Mg, and K), cloud water mass fractions of all species examined were higher in decoupled clouds relative to coupled clouds. Satellite and Navy Aerosol Analysis and Prediction System-based reanalysis data are compared with each other, and the airborne data to conclude that limitations in resolving boundary layer processes in a global model prevent it from accurately quantifying observed differences between coupled and decoupled cloud composition.

AB Multi-keV X-ray radiation sources have a wide range of applications, from biomedical studies and research on thermonuclear fusion to materials science and astrophysics. The refurbished Z pulsed power machine at the Sandia National Laboratories produces intense multi-keV X-rays from argon Z-pinches, but for a krypton Z-pinch, the yield decreases much faster with atomic number ZA than similar sources on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) laser at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. To investigate whether fundamental energy deposition differences between pulsed power and lasers could account for the yield differences, we consider the Kr plasma on the two machines. The analysis assumes the plasma not in local thermodynamic equilibrium, with a detailed coupling between the hydrodynamics, the radiation field, and the ionization physics. While for the plasma parameters of interest the details of krypton's M-shell are not crucial, both the L-shell and the K-shell must be modeled in reasonable detail, including the state-specific dielectronic recombination processes that significantly affect Kr's ionization balance and the resulting X-ray spectrum. We present a detailed description of the atomic model, provide synthetic K-and L-shell spectra, and compare these with the available experimental data from the Z-machine and from NIF to show that the K-shell yield behavior versus ZA is indeed related to the energy input characteristics. This work aims at understanding the probable causes that might explain the differences in the X-ray conversion efficiencies of several radiation sources on Z and NIF.

AB Double-shell Ar gas puff implosions driven by 16.5 +/- 0.5 MA on the Z generator at Sandia National Laboratories are very effective emitters of Ar K-shell radiation (photon energy >3 keV), producing yields of 330 +/- 9% kJ [B. Jones et al., Phys. Plasmas 22, 020706 (2015)]. Previous simulations and experiments have reported dramatic increases in K-shell yields when adding an on-axis jet to double shell gas puffs for some configurations. We report on a series of experiments on Z testing Ar gas puff configurations with and without an on-axis jet guided by 3D magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) simulations. Adding an on-axis jet was found to significantly improve the performance of some, but not all, configurations. The maximum observed K-shell yield of 375 +/- 9% kJ was produced with a configuration that rapidly imploded onto an on-axis jet. A dramatic difference was observed in the plasma conditions at stagnation when a jet was used, producing a narrower stagnation column in experiments with a higher density but relatively lower electron temperature. The MHD simulations accurately reproduce the experimental measurements. The conversion efficiency for electrical energy delivered to the load to K-shell x-rays is estimated to be similar to 12.5% for the best-performing configuration, similar to the best results from experiments at smaller facilities.

AB Spatially resolved and time-integrated x-ray spectroscopy, combined with modeling of the spectra with detailed radiation kinetics and transport, is a powerful method to study the conditions in a hot moving plasma. K-shell argon spectra were measured from gas puff implosions with different center jet masses on the 1 MA COBRA generator at Cornell University. The outer to inner plenum pressures (1 and 3 psia, respectively) were the same for all shots producing an outer to inner mass ratio of 1:1. This paper uses non-local thermodynamic equilibrium kinetic modeling to infer the ion density, electron temperature, K-shell radiating mass, and K-shell powers from stagnating argon gas puff z-pinch implosion. We find that the implosions with a center jet produced bright spot regions of plasma with higher temperature and density than those without a jet.

TI Experimental results of radiation-driven, layered deuterium-tritium
implosions with adiabat-shaped drives at the National Ignition Facility
SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS

INSTABILITY; SHOCK
AB Radiation-driven, layered deuterium-tritium (DT) implosions were carried out using 3-shock and 4-shock "adiabat-shaped" drives and plastic ablators on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) [E. M. Campbell et al., AIP Conf. Proc. 429, 3 (1998)]. The purpose of these shots was to gain further understanding on the relative performance of the low-foot implosions of the National Ignition Campaign [M. J. Edwards et al., Phys. Plasmas 20, 070501 (2013)] versus the subsequent high-foot implosions [T. Doppner et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 055001 (2015)]. The neutron yield performance in the experiment with the 4-shock adiabat-shaped drive was improved by factors similar to 3 to similar to 10, compared to five companion low-foot shots despite large low-mode asymmetries of DT fuel, while measured compression was similar to its low-foot companions. This indicated that the dominant degradation source for low-foot implosions was ablation-front instability growth, since adiabat shaping significantly stabilized this growth. For the experiment with the low-power 3-shock adiabat-shaped drive, the DT fuel compression was significantly increased, by similar to 25% to similar to 36%, compared to its companion high-foot implosions. The neutron yield increased by similar to 20%, lower than the increase of similar to 50% estimated from one-dimensional scaling, suggesting the importance of residual instabilities and asymmetries. For the experiment with the high-power, 3-shock adiabat-shaped drive, the DT fuel compression was slightly increased by similar to 14% compared to its companion high-foot experiments. However, the compression was reduced compared to the lower-power 3-shock adiabat-shaped drive, correlated with the increase of hot electrons that hypothetically can be responsible for reduced compression in high-power adiabat-shaped experiments as well as in high-foot experiments. The total neutron yield in the high-power 3-shock adiabat-shaped shot N150416 was 8.5 x 10(15) +/- 0.2 x 10(15), with the fuel areal density of 0.90 +/- 0.07 g/cm(2), corresponding to the ignition threshold factor parameter IFTX (calculated without alpha heating) of 0.34 +/- 0.03 and the yield amplification due to the alpha heating of 2.4 +/- 0.2. The performance parameters were among the highest of all shots on NIF and the closest to ignition at this time, based on the IFTX metric. The follow-up experiments were proposed to continue testing physics hypotheses, to measure implosion reproducibility, and to improve quantitative understanding on present implosion results.

AB Radiation-magnetohydrodynamic simulations using the non-local thermodynamic equilibrium Mach2-Tabular Collisional-Radiative Equilibrium code in (r, z) geometry are performed for two pairs of recent Ar gas-puff Z-pinch experiments on the refurbished Z generator with an 8 cm diameter nozzle. One pair of shots had an outer-to-inner shell mass ratio of 1:1.6 and a second pair had a ratio of 1:1. In each pair, one of the shots had a central jet. The experimental trends in the Ar Kshell yield and power are reproduced in the calculations. However, the K-shell yield and power are significantly lower than the other three shots for the case of a double-shell puff of 1:1 mass ratio and no central jet configuration. Further simulations of a hypothetical experiment with the same relative density profile of this configuration, but higher total mass, show that the coupled energy from the generator and the K-shell yield can be increased to levels achieved in the other three configurations, but not the K-shell power. Based on various measures of effective plasma radius, the compression in the 1:1 mass ratio and no central jet case is found to be less because the plasma inside the magnetic piston is hotter and of lower density. Because of the reduced density, and the reduced radiation cooling (which is proportional to the square of the density), the core plasma is hotter. Consequently, for the 1:1 outer-to-inner shell mass ratio, the load mass controls the yield and the center jet controls the power. Published by AIP Publishing.

AB A unique spatiotemporal perspective of evolving surface currents off the northern California coast is provided with Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs) determined from attracting Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponents (FTLEs). The FTLEs are calculated from hourly 2-D surface current velocities obtained with HF radars. Attracting FTLE field maxima can identify confluence and shear in flows which can be useful in mapping dynamics associated with fronts. FTLE and SST fields are compared during three time periods in 2009: late March, early September, and late September. During strong upwelling-favorable winds in late March the FTLE and SST fields were not strongly related indicating that frontal dynamics were not strongly influencing surface circulation. Exceptions to this occurred when FTLE ridges calculated from a shorter integration period captured the evolution of a cold water filament and when a FILE ridge migrated offshore along with an upwelling front. During the two September cases an improved relationship between the FTLE and SST fields was found although occasionally they became shifted. The shifts occurred when the FTLE integration period spanned backwards in time through periods of relaxed and upwelling-favorable winds. This suggests that frontal dynamics captured by LCSs during relaxed winds can subsequently become advected after the onset of wind-forcing by a surface mixed layer decoupled from stably stratified water below the surface mixed layer. Additionally, the LCSs were found to be useful in mapping the origin and destination of surface trajectories, the confluence associated with a persistent eddy-like feature, and retention zones off coastal promontories.

AB The paper is focused on the study of continuous orbit equivalence for minimal equicontinuous systems. We establish that every equicontinuous system is topologically conjugate to a profinite action, where the finite-index subgroups are not necessarily normal. We then show that two profinite actions X, G) and Y, H) are continuously orbit equivalent if and only if the groups G and H are virtually isomorphic, and the isomorphism preserves the structure of the finiteindex subgroups defining the actions. As a corollary, we obtain a dynamical classification of the restricted isomorphism between generalized Bunce-Deddens C*-algebras. We show that, for minimal equicontinuous Zd -systems, continuous orbit equivalence implies that the systems are virtually piecewise conjugate. This result extends Boyle's flip-conjugacy theorem. We also show that the topological full group of a minimal equicontinuous system X, G) is amenable if and only if the group G is amenable.

TI Chorionic Villus Sampling, Early Amniocentesis, and Termination of
Pregnancy Without Diagnostic Testing: Comparison of Fetal Risk Following
Positive Non-invasive Prenatal Testing EDITORIAL COMMENT
SO OBSTETRICAL & GYNECOLOGICAL SURVEY
LA English
DT Editorial Material
AB The accuracy of screening tests for fetal aneuploidy such as noninvasive prenatal testing based on cell-free DNA (cfDNA) techniques has improved remarkably over the past 40 years, thereby decreasing the likelihood of false-positive detection rates. Diagnostic tests such as early amniocentesis (EA) and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) have been recommended following positive first-trimester screening tests for confirmation. However, some patients with positive cfDNA results have terminated their pregnancies without undergoing either of the diagnostic tests. Both EA and CVS are offered prior to 15weeks' gestation; as EA has been associated with a 1% rate of talipes equinovarus and an increased rate of early pregnancy loss, CVS is preferred over EA. This study aimed to calculate the risk of adverse outcomes for euploid pregnancies from various procedures including CVS, EA, and termination of pregnancy (TOP) without a confirmatory test following positive cfDNA. Using data from a Cochrane review from 2003, the rates of adverse outcomes in euploid pregnancies for the 3 procedures, CVS, EA, and TOP, were estimated after positive cfDNA results based on their positive predictive values (PPVs). The rate of euploid pregnancy loss was greater in EA than in CVS, and greatest in TOP at all PPV levels before 24 weeks' gestation. As the PPVof cfDNA increased, the rate of procedure-related talipes in euploid infants decreased. The study concluded that CVS was safer than EA and hence recommended as a confirmatory test in the first trimester. It was also suggested that patients should be counseled regarding the limitations of cfDNA and discouraged from TOP before undergoing confirmatory tests such as CVS or EAwhen the former was not available.

AB A new numerical model based on the Navier-Stokes equations is presented for the simulation of dispersion dominated waves. The equations are solved by splitting the pressure into hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic components. The Godunov approach is utilized to solve the hydrostatic flow equations and the resulting velocity field is then corrected to be divergence free. Alternative techniques for the time integration of the non-hydrostatic pressure gradients are presented and investigated in order to improve the accuracy of dispersion dominated wave simulations. Numerical predictions are compared with analytical solutions and experimental data for test cases involving standing, shoaling, refracting, and breaking waves. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB We have bridged the unsteady and steady mechanisms of underwater propulsion in nature and engineering by colocating their flapping and steady lifting surfaces in an outwardly conventional propulsor. The feasibility is indicated by the observation of overlap in the mechanisms in propulsion density versus displacement volume from 0.1 to 1 m(3). Such an overlap also exists between natural and engineered flyers. A novel, 0.7-m diameter, propulsor has been built where the fins, twistable along their span (0 degrees to 30 degrees), can either slosh (where roll, pitch, and twist of the fins vary independently) or spin (where the rotational rate, fin pitch, and twist vary independently). Here, we discuss the origin of the novelty of the propulsor, the production of small thrust by slosh and propeller (prop) modes, the control of thrust amplitude by spanwise twisting of the fin, and the abrupt reversing of thrust. The tow speeds are low and close to the minimum induced velocity required for thrust onset by the flapping mechanism in the present propulsor-0 to 0.09 m/s, the fin chord Reynolds number and shaft input power being <= 8, 250, and 1 W. Time-averaged measurements show that thrust is more sensitive to pitch amplitude than to twisting during hovering, an effect that is reversed during slow towing due to the reduction in the spanwise variation of angle of attack. During towing, twist is more effective in the slosh mode than in the prop mode. Steady and quasi-steady thrust modeling is done to compare with prop- and slosh-mode measurements, respectively. The departures of the models are interpreted to mean that the beneficial effects of twist on the leading edge vortex (LEV) augment slosh forces and the rotational effects are detrimental to prop forces. We present simultaneous videography of fins during twisting and thrust reversal, and of thrust time trace as direct evidence of the relationship of cause and effect. Spanwise fin twisting is used to show that near-zero levels of thrust (0 to 1 N in steps of approximately 0.1 N) can be produced in both the slosh and prop modes and can be controlled merely by twisting the fins while keeping all other fin parameters unchanged. Transient-free reversal of the thrust direction has been achieved in the slosh mode while maintaining the same absolute value of thrust. However, thrust reversal in the prop mode is not transient free. This prop-mode transient is weaker due to the change in sign of the pitch angle but a change in the direction of the hub rotation produces a large spike and the reasons are discussed. Fine thrust control with individual fin hydrodynamics at the source that involves the lowest change in inertia is smoother. Smooth thrust reversibility is clearly identified as a unique property of flapping fin hydrodynamics. The mechanism overlap occurs because both fin modes have similar low transitional Reynolds numbers. Dynamical system models of unsteady hydrodynamics and control are shown to be similar suggesting that animal swimmers control vortex shedding ion-by-ion and animal-like motion control is theoretically possible with the proposed propulsor in the slosh mode but not in the prop mode.

AB This paper seeks to enhance the autonomy of underwater vehicles. The proposed approach takes as input a mission specified via a regular language and automatically plans a collision-free, dynamically feasible, and low-cost trajectory which enables the vehicle to accomplish the mission. Regular languages provide a convenient mathematical model that frees users from the burden of unnatural low-level commands and instead allows them to describe missions at a high level in terms of desired objectives. To account for the constraints imposed by the mission, vehicle dynamics, collision avoidance, and the complex spatial and temporal variability of the ocean environment, the approach tightly couples mission planning with sampling-based motion planning. A key aspect is a discrete abstraction obtained by combining the finite automaton representing the regular language with a navigation roadmap constructed by probabilistic sampling. The approach searches the discrete abstraction to compute low-cost and collision-free navigation routes that are compatible with the mission. Sampling-based motion planning is then used to expand a tree of dynamically feasible trajectories along the navigation routes. The approach is validated both in simulation and field experiments. Results demonstrate the efficiency and the scalability of the approach and show significant improvements over related work.

AB The challenges of comparison calibrations of hydrophones in linear arrays at low frequencies are inherent in the length of the array, number of hydrophones, difficulty in achieving free-field conditions, and lack of a suitable low-frequency projector. These challenges were addressed by the development of complementary methods to simultaneously measure the complex sensitivity in the acoustic data channels of hydrophone line arrays with digital telemetry systems. The voltage sensitivities and RC time constants of the array data channels were then estimated by nonlinear regression of calibration data to a simplified model of the acoustic data channel. The methods are demonstrated by the simultaneous calibration of 200 data channels of a digital hydrophone line array at 1/3 octave band center frequencies ranging from 1.2 to 400 Hz. The 95% confidence interval of the voltage sensitivity estimates was not more than 1 dB.

ID COGNITIVE RADIO NETWORKS; DYNAMIC SPECTRUM ACCESS; ANTENNAS
AB Cooperation has become an essential element in spectrum sharing between the primary and secondary networks. A new trend in cooperation is to allow the primary and secondary networks to cooperate on the node level for data forwarding. This new paradigm allows to pool network resources from both the primary and secondary networks and allows users in each network to access a much richer network infrastructure in a combined network. This paper offers an in-depth study of such node-level cooperation by explaining its optimal throughput curve-the maximum achievable throughput for both the primary and secondary users. We formulate the problem as a multicriteria optimization problem with the goal of maximizing the throughput of both the primary and secondary users. Through a novel approach based on weighted Chebyshev norm, we transform the multicriteria optimization problem into a single criteria optimization problem and find a sequence of Pareto-optimal points iteratively. Based on the Pareto-optimal points, we construct the throughput curve and show that it provides an e-approximation to the optimal curve. We prove some important properties of the optimal throughput curve. Through a case study, we show that the throughput region (the area under the throughput curve) under node-level cooperation is substantially larger than that when there is no node-level cooperation.

AB This paper considers a distributed wave-based sensing system that probes a scene consisting of multiple interacting idealized targets. Each sensor is a collocated transmit-receive pair that is capable of transmitting arbitrary wideband waveforms. We address the problem of finding the space-time transmit waveform that provides the best target detection performance in the sense of maximizing the energy scattered back into the receivers. Our approach is based on earlier theoretical work that showed, for an idealized infinite half-space geometry, that the solution could be constructed by an iterative time-reversal (TR) process. In this paper, we give a more realistic example involving a two-sensor time-domain system. We show that for this system, the iterative TR process can be used to tune automatically to all the target resonances that are within the bandwidth of the interrogating radar system. We show that although obtaining eigenvalues (and hence resonances) of the scattering operator is in general unstable, using the iterative TR process to obtain the resonances is a stable process. Moreover, we show that these resonance frequencies are connected to the poles of the singularity expansion method.

AB High-resolution currents and hydrographic fields were measured at six deep-water moorings in the southern Bay of Bengal (BoB) by the Naval Research Laboratory as part of an international effort focused on the dynamics of the Indian Ocean. Currents, temperature, and salinity were sampled over the upper 500m for 20 months between December 2013 and August 2015. One of the major goals is to understand the space-time scales of the currents and physical processes that contribute to the exchange of water between the BoB and the Arabian Sea. The observations captured Southwest and Northeast Monsoon Currents, seasonally varying large eddies including a cyclonic eddy, the Sri Lanka dome (SLD), and an anticyclonic eddy southeast of the SLD. The observations further showed intraseasonal oscillations with periods of 30-70 days, near-inertial currents, and tides. Monthly averaged velocities commonly exceeded 50 cm s(-1) near the surface, and extreme velocities exceeded 150 cm s(-1) during the southwest monsoon. Tides were small and dominated by the M-2 component with velocities of about 3 cms(-1). The average transport into the BoB over the measurement period was 2 Sv (1 Sv = 10(6) m(3) s(-1)) but likely exceeded 15 Sv during summer of 2014. This study suggests the water exchange away from coastal boundaries, in the interior of the BoB, may be largely influenced by the location and strength of the two eddies that modify the path of the Southwest Monsoon Current. In addition, there is a pathway below 200m for transport of water into the BoB throughout the year.

AB Compositional and structural analyses of CI chondrite iron-nickel sulfide grains reveal heterogeneity both across and within the Orgueil and Alais meteorites. Orgueil grains with the 4C monoclinic pyrrhotite structure have variable metal-to-sulfur ratios and nickel contents. These range from the nominal ratio of 0.875 for Fe7S8 with <1 atom% nickel to a high metal-to-sulfur ratio of 0.97 with 15 atom% nickel. These data reveal a previously unrecognized low-temperature solid solution between Fe7S8 and Fe5Ni3S8. We have also identified 6C monoclinic pyrrhotite among the Orgueil iron-nickel sulfides. The occurrence of pentlandite in Orgueil is confirmed for the first time crystallographically. In contrast, sulfide grains in Alais do not show the same spread in composition and structure; rather they represent the endmembers: low-Ni 4C monoclinic pyrrhotite and pentlandite. We investigate possible formation/alteration scenarios: crystallization from a melt, solid-state diffusion and/or exsolution, oxidation of pre-existing sulfides, and precipitation from a fluid. Sulfide grains are sensitive to alteration conditions; these data suggest that the structures and compositions of the sulfide assemblages in Orgueil and Alais were established by late-stage parent body aqueous alteration, followed in some cases by low-temperature solid-stateprocesses. The samples record different alteration histories, with Orgueil experiencing lower equilibration temperatures (25 degrees C) than Alais (100-135 degrees C). We conclude that millimeter-scale heterogeneity existed in alteration conditions (e.g., temperature, pH, oxygen fugacity, sulfur fugacity, duration of alteration) on the parent body. This variability is evidenced by the diversity among sulfide grains located within millimeters of one another.

AB CD20 is a membrane protein with four integral membrane regions and a large extracellular loop between residues 142 and 187, which serves as a target binding region for rituximab (RTX) and most other anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies. It is highly expressed in B-lymphoma cells and B-lymphocytes and often serves as a target for immunotherapy. In this study, we developed single domain antibodies (sdAbs) for the sensitive detection of CD20. To achieve this, an immune sdAb library was prepared from llamas immunized with a fusion between the large loop from CD20 and Hoc, a highly antigenic protein from the T4 bacteriophage, (CD2O-Hoc). By subtracting binders to recombinant Hoc during the biopanning, potential anti-CD20 sdAbs were selected, sequenced, and characterized for their binding affinity to CD20-Hoc fusion versus Hoc. Twenty five clones grouped into three different families based on CDR3 sequence were identified as potential CD20 binders. The binding kinetics of representative sdAbs from each class and RTX were evaluated by surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Most of the sdAbs that were evaluated show binding affinities to CD2O-Hoc in the nM range, and class A sdAbs, exhibited >= 40-fold increase in affinity for CD2O-Hoc versus Hoc. When the binding of the sdAbs to CD20 on SU-DHL-4 cells was evaluated by flow cytometry, only class A sdAbs displayed strong binding to CD20 and recognized DHL cells in a concentration dependent manner.

TI Hybrid Tibia Fixation of Soft Tissue Grafts in Anterior Cruciate
Ligament Reconstruction: A Systematic Review

AB Background: Optimal fixation of soft tissue grafts in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction remains a controversial topic, and tibial-sided fixation is frequently cited as the weak point of the femur-graft-tibia construct. Some studies have recommended the use of hybrid fixation (combining intratunnel aperture fixation and extracortical suspensory fixation) on the tibial side to increase the strength of the reconstructed ACL and decrease the risk of graft slippage and subsequent failure. However, no consensus has emerged on the necessity or suitability of this technique, relative to single modes of fixation.
Purpose: This study sought answers to the following questions: (1) Does hybrid fixation result in stronger, stiffer initial fixation of soft tissue grafts? (2) Does hybrid fixation reduce side-to-side laxity differences in clinical practice? (3) Does hybrid fixation increase complication rates when compared with a single mode of tibial fixation?
Study Design: Systematic review.
Methods: A systematic keyword search of PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library of Systematic Reviews, and the PROSPERO International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews was performed. Candidate articles were included if they compared biomechanical or clinical characteristics of tibial-sided hybrid fixation (defined as a combination of aperture and suspensory fixation methods) with single-mode fixation of soft tissue grafts in ACL reconstruction.
Results: A total of 21 studies (15 biomechanical, 6 clinical) met criteria for inclusion. Most biomechanical studies reported significantly increased strength and stiffness with hybrid fixation versus single modes of fixation. Among clinical studies, 66% reported significantly decreased anterior-posterior laxity when hybrid fixation methods were employed, with the remainder showing no difference.
Conclusion: Hybrid methods of tibial-sided graft fixation in ACL reconstruction result in stronger initial fixation and less side-to-side laxity after healing but do not change patient-reported outcomes at 1- to 3-year follow-up.
Registration: PROSPERO International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews No. 42014015464.

AB We report on an ultraviolet spectroscopic survey of red giants observed by the Hubble Space Telescope, focusing on spectra of the Mg II h and k lines near 2800 in order to study stellar chromospheric emission, winds, and astrospheric absorption. We focus on spectral types between K2. III and M5. III, a spectral type range with stars that are noncoronal, but possessing strong, chromospheric winds. We find a very tight relation between Mg II surface flux and photospheric temperature, supporting the notion that all K2-M5. III stars are emitting at a basal flux level. Wind velocities (V-w) are generally found to decrease with spectral type, with Vw decreasing from similar to 40 km s(-1) at K2. III to similar to 20 km s(-1) at M5. III. We find two new detections of astrospheric absorption, for sigma Pup (K5 III) and gamma Eri (M1 III). This absorption signature had previously only been detected for alpha Tau (K5 III). For the three astrospheric detections, the temperature of the wind after the termination shock (TS) correlates with V-w, but is lower than predicted by the Rankine-Hugoniot shock jump conditions, consistent with the idea that red giant TSs are radiative shocks rather than simple hydrodynamic shocks. A full hydrodynamic simulation of the gamma Eri astrosphere is provided to explore this further.

AB The distribution of main nitrogen defects and H1a-centers in HPHT synthetic diamond grown by temperature gradient method (system Fe-Ni-C) has been studied by FTIR-mapping technique. The IR-peak at 1450 cm(-1) of Hla-centers (di-nitrogen interstitials), appears only in some local areas of octahedral growth sectors where single substitutional nitrogen (C-defects) was partly aggregated into nitrogen pairs (A-defects). It was found that the disappearing of H1a-centers takes place simultaneously with the completion of C -> A transformation. The observed distribution of nitrogen defects in diamonds with transition metals gives strong experimental evidence that the H1a-centers are not a by-product of nitrogen transformation, but are directly involved in the stepwise C -> A nitrogen aggregation process.
Prime novelty statement: For HPHT diamond crystals of Fe-Ni-C system, the distribution of H1a centers, studied by FTIR-mapping for the first time, provide a strong argument for the interstitial-related mechanism of nitrogen C -> A aggregation. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The viscosities and densities ((293.15 to 353.15) K), speeds of sound ((293.15 to 333.15) K), Surface tensions (room temperature), and flash points were. measured for binary mixtures of n-butylcyclohexane with either toluene or n-hexadecane. Increasing the temperature decreased the densities, and the excess molar volumes of the mixtures were generally positive, suggesting increased spacing due to differences in packing and intermolecular forces. Increasing the temperature also decreased the viscosities, and the McAllister three-body model successfully modeled the viscosity with the larger fitting term corresponding to two molecules of the more viscous substance. The mixture surface tensions and flash points fell between the pure-component values, which ranged from (26.7 to 28.6) mN.m(-1) and (324.7 to 406.2) K, respectively. The speed of sound decreased with increasing mole fraction of n-butylcycylohexane in n-hexadecane, but several speed of sound values for mixtures of n-butylcyclohexane and toluene were lower than those of either component. For both sets of mixtures, the isentropic bulk moduli of several mixtures Were lower than those of their components. These results show that simple blending rules cannot be used to predict the speed of sound and bulk modulus of these mixtures.

AB Practical free energy reconstruction algorithms involve three separate tasks: biasing, measuring some observable, and finally reconstructing the free energy surface from those measurements. In more than one dimension, adaptive schemes make it possible to explore only relatively low lying regions of the landscape by progressively building up the bias toward the negative of the free energy surface so that free energy barriers are eliminated. Most schemes use the final bias as their best estimate of the free energy surface. We show that large gains in computational efficiency, as measured by the reduction of time to solution, can be obtained by separating the bias used for dynamics from the final free energy reconstruction itself. We find that biasing with metadynamics, measuring a free energy gradient estimator, and reconstructing using Gaussian process regression can give an order of magnitude reduction in computational cost.

AB The physical processes associated with propagation of a high-power laser beam in a dielectric include self-focusing, stimulated Raman scattering, stimulated Brillouin scattering, thermal blooming, and multiphoton and collisional ionization. The interplay between these processes is analyzed using a reduced model consisting of a few differential equations that can be readily solved, enabling rapid variation of parameters and the development of theoretical results for guiding new experiments. The presentation in this paper is limited to propagation of the pump, the Stokes Raman, and the Brillouin pulses, ignoring the anti-Stokes Raman. Consistent with experimental results in the literature, it is found that self-focusing has a dramatic effect on the propagation of high-power laser beams in water. A significant portion of the pump laser energy is transferred to Stokes Raman forward scatter along with a smaller portion to Brillouin backscatter.

AB A recent paper of Furdui and Vlean proves some results about sums of products of "tails" of the series for the Riemann zeta function. We show how such results can be proved with weaker hypotheses using multiple zeta values, and also show how they can be generalized to products of three or more such tails.

AB An analysis of in situ observations from the nondeveloping tropical disturbance named TCS025 revealed that a combination of unfavorable system-scale and environmental factors limited further development. In this study, a multiphysics ensemble of high-resolution simulations of TCS025 are analyzed and compared. A simulation that overdeveloped the TCS025 disturbance is compared with one that correctly simulated non development and reveals that convection was stronger and diabatic heating rates were larger in the developing simulation. This led to continued spinup of the low-level circulation primarily through vorticity stretching. In contrast, convection was much weaker in the nondeveloping simulation, and after an initial period of deep convection, average vorticity tendencies from stretching became weakly negative, which allowed for the frictional spindown of the low-level circulation.
Convective-scale differences identified early in the simulations appear to have resulted from the explicit representation of graupel in the developing simulation. The net impacts resulting from these differences in convection are manifest in the average diabatic heating profiles that are important for determining the developmental outcome. Additional simulations are conducted whereby the diabatic heating rates are artificially adjusted. Relatively small changes in the diabatic heating rate led to significantly different outcomes with respect to storm development, and the degree of overdevelopment is largely dictated by the diabatic heating rate. These findings suggest the correct representation of convective processes and associated diabatic heating are necessary to adequately forecast tropical cyclogenesis, especially for systems near a threshold of development like TCS025.

AB A nondeveloping tropical disturbance, identified as TCS025, was observed during three intensive observing periods during The Observing System Research and Predictability Experiment (THORPEX) Pacific Asian Regional Campaign (T-PARC)/Tropical Cyclone Structure-2008 (TCS-08) field experiment. The low-level circulation of the disturbance was relatively weak, asymmetric, and displaced a considerable distance from the midlevel circulation. An ensemble of high-resolution numerical simulations initialized from global model analyses was used to further examine TCS025. These simulations tended to unrealistically overdevelop the TCS025 disturbance. This study extends that work by examining the impact of assimilating in situ observations of TCS025 and dual-Doppler radial velocities from the airborne Electra Doppler Radar (ELDORA) using the Data Assimilation Research Testbed (DART) ensemble data assimilation system.
The assimilation of observations results in a more accurate vortex structure that is consistent with the observational analysis. In addition, forecasts initialized from the state of the ensemble after data assimilation exhibit less development than both the control simulation and an ensemble of forecasts without prior data assimilation.
A composite analysis of developing and nondeveloping forecasts from the ensemble reveals that convection was more active in developing simulations, especially near the low-level circulation center. This led to larger diabatic heating rates, spinup of the low-level circulation from vorticity stretching, and greater alignment of the low- and midlevel vorticity centers. In contrast, nondeveloping simulations exhibited less convection, and the circulation was more heavily impacted by vertical wind shear.

AB The utility of static and adaptive mesh refinement (SMR and AMR, respectively) are examined for idealized tropical cyclone (TC) simulations in a two-dimensional spectral element f-plane shallow-water model. The SMR simulations have varying sizes of the statically refined meshes (geometry based) while the AMR simulations use a potential vorticity (PV) threshold to adaptively refine the mesh to the evolving TC. Numerical simulations are conducted for four cases: (i) TC-like vortex advecting in a uniform flow, (ii) binary vortex interaction, (iii) barotropic instability of a PV ring, and (iv) barotropic instability of a thin strip of PV. For each case, a uniform grid high-resolution "truth" simulation is compared to two different SMR simulations and three different AMR simulations for accuracy and efficiency. The multiple SMR and AMR simulations have variations in the number of fully refined elements in the vicinity of the TC. For these idealized cases, it is found that the SMR and AMR simulations are able to resolve the vortex dynamical processes (e.g., barotropic instability, Rossby wave breaking, and filamentation) as well as the truth simulations, with no significant loss in accuracy in the refined region in the vortex vicinity and with significant speedups (factors of 4-15, depending on the total number of refined elements). The overall accuracy is enhanced by a greater area of fully refined mesh in both the SMR and AMR simulations.

AB NASA's Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite, scheduled for launch in 2020, will provide observations of sea surface height anomaly (SSHA) at a significantly higher spatial resolution than current satellite altimeters. This new observation type is expected to improve the ocean model mesoscale circulation. The potential improvement that SWOT will provide is investigated in this work by way of twin data assimilation experiments using the Navy Coastal Ocean Model four-dimensional variational data assimilation (NCOM-4DVAR) system in its weak constraint formulation. Simulated SWOT observations are sampled from an ocean model run (referred to as the "nature" run) using an observation-simulator program provided by the SWOT science team. The SWOT simulator provides realistic spatial coverage, resolution, and noise characteristics based on the expected performance of the actual satellite. Twin-data assimilation experiments are run for a two-month period during which simulated observations are assimilated into a separate model (known as the background model) in a series of 96-h windows. The final condition of each analysis window is used to initialize a new 96-h forecast, and each forecast is compared to the nature run to determine the impact of the assimilated data. It is demonstrated here that the simulated SWOT observations help to constrain the model mesoscale to be more consistent with the nature run than the assimilation of traditional altimeter observations alone. The findings of this study suggest that data from SWOT may have a substantial impact on improving the ocean model forecast of mesoscale features and surface ocean velocity.

AB Recurving tropical cyclones (TCs) undergoing extratropical transition (ET) may substantially modify the large-scale midlatitude flow pattern. This study highlights the role of diabatic outflow in midlatitude flow amplification within the context of a review of the physical and dynamical processes involved in ET. Composite fields of 12 western North Pacific ET cases are used as initial and boundary conditions for high-resolution numerical simulations of the North Pacific North American sector with and without the TC present. It is demonstrated that a three-stage sequence of diabatic outflow associated with different weather systems is involved in triggering a highly amplified midlatitude flow pattern: 1) preconditioning by a predecessor rain event (PRE), 2) TC extratropical flow interaction, and 3) downstream flow amplification by a downstream warm conveyor belt (WCB). An ensemble of perturbed simulations demonstrates the robustness of these stages. Beyond earlier studies investigating PREs, recurving TCs, and WCBs individually, here the fact that each impacts the midlatitude flow through a similar sequence of processes surrounding ET is highlighted. Latent heat release in rapidly ascending air leads to a net transport of low-PV air into the upper troposphere. Negative PV advection by the diabatically driven outflow initiates ridge building, accelerates and anchors a midlatitude jet streak, and overall amplifies the upper-level Rossby wave pattern. However, the three weather systems markedly differ in terms of the character of diabatic heating and associated outflow height, with the TC outflow reaching highest and the downstream WCB outflow producing the strongest negative PV anomaly.

AB Various periodically patterned, infrared (IR) transmissive germanium substrates were surface modified to alter the surface wettability. Goniometric analysis showed that the surface modification rendered the substrates superhydrophobic. Following the surface modification, it was determined that the desirable IR transmission properties were maintained. Both the hydrophobicity and the IR transmission capabilities of the modified, patterned germanium substrates were shown to be significantly enhanced in comparison to a germanium substrate that underwent the same processes, but was devoid of nanostructures on its surface. The results of this work provide an opportunity for the development of enhanced utility infrared transmissive optics in wet or humid conditions. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America

AB The commonly used spectral dependences for the emissivity of aluminum oxide particles are investigated. Theoretical considerations from Mie theory and the optical properties of alumina give rise to inverse wavelength and (-2) dependences when particles fall within the Rayleigh scattering regime. Analysis of particles of an arbitrary size (i.e. outside the Rayleigh regime) demonstrates that no general relationship exists between the wavelength and the spectral emissivity of these particles contrary to what has been routinely applied in the literature. This result was attributed to the dependence of both the spectral dependence and magnitude of the complex refractive index on the spectral emissivity. The significance of these results to applications (e.g. aluminized propellants) is discussed.

AB The IR-peak 1450 cm(-1) (H1a-center) associated with nitrogen interstitials have been studied in nitrogen-bearing diamonds synthesized at high P-T parameters in the Fe-Ni-C system. FTIR study shows that manifestation of this nitrogen form is restricted to the regions of active transformation of C-defects into A-defects, which confirms the connection of its formation with C => A aggregation process. An examination of the dependence of the 1450 cm(-1) peak on the degree of nitrogen aggregation indicates that H1a-centers are not only formed during C/A aggregation but also disappear simultaneously with the end of C => A transformation. Established facts suggest direct involving of nitrogen as interstitials in the C => A aggregation and serve as strong experimental argument in support of the "interstitial" mechanism of nitrogen migration during aggregation in diamonds containing transition metals.

AB Students at the United States Naval Academy have the opportunity to take a Career Starter Loan (CSL). Two military-oriented banks offer these large personal loans at very low interest rates to all students. Thus the CSL provides a novel opportunity to study the behavior of a sample of borrowers that is not selected due to credit history and is often too liquidity-constrained to invest. Using survey data, this paper examines borrowers' investment and consumption decisions in relation to their cognitive ability (measured by the Cognitive Reflection Test, the SAT, and grade point average), personality traits (captured by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator), and other demographic characteristics. Tobit models reveal that: (1) cognitive ability is positively associated with more investment and riskier choices; (2) some MBTI personality traits are strong predictors of investment behavior; (3) individuals with prior investment experience or who view themselves as financially literate tend to invest more and with more risk; (4) these findings are largely consistent across students from all income levels.

AB Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard of clinical research as they use-rigorous methodologies, detailed protocols, pre-specified statistical analyses and well-defined patient cohorts. However, RCTs do not take into account the complexity of real-world cliriical decision-making. To tackle this, real-world data are being increasingly used to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of a given therapy in routine clinical practice and in patients who may not be represented in RCTs, addressing key clinical questions that may remain. Real-world evidence plays a substantial role in supporting the use of non-vitamin K antagonist (VKA) oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in clinical practice. By providing data on patient profiles and the use of anticoagulation therapies in routine clinical practice, real world evidence expands the current awareness of NOACs, helping to ensure that clinicians are well-informed on their use to implement patient-tailored clinical decisions. There are various issues with current anticoagulation strategies, including under- or overtreatment and frequent monitoring with VKAs. Real-world studies have demonstrated that NOAC use is increasing (Dresden NOAC registry and Global Anticoagulant Registry in the FIELD-AF [GARFIELD-AF]), as well as reaffirming the safety and effectiveness of rivaroxaban previously observed in RCTs (XArelto on preveNtion of sTroke and non-central nervoUS system systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation [XANTUS] and IMS Disease Analyzer). This article will describe the latest updates in real-world evidence across a variety of methodologies, such as non-interventional studies (NIS), registries and database analyses studies. It is anticipated that these studies will provide valuable clinical insights into the management of thromboembolism, and enhance the current knowledge on anticoagulant use and outcomes for patients.

AB This study demonstrates the capabilities of a three-dimensional radiative transfer model coupled to a polarized microwave surface emissivity model. Simulations are performed at 10, 19, and 37 GHz for TMI and WindSat using three-dimensional fields of rain, snow, and graupel derived from Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission observations of moderate Tropical Storm Asma in conjunction with atmospheric profiles and surface fields from ECMWF. Simulations are well behaved and compare well with measured brightness temperatures. Comparisons are made between simulations with a wind-roughened surface and simulations assuming a specular surface. This theoretical study, which is supported with WindSat retrievals, shows the frequencies and conditions under which surface emissions may be detected in the presence of rain.

AB The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Micro Pulse Lidar Network, version 3, cloud detection algorithm is described and differences relative to the previous version are highlighted. Clouds are identified from normalized level 1 signal profiles using two complementary methods. The first method considers vertical signal derivatives for detecting low-level clouds. The second method, which detects high-level clouds like cirrus, is based on signal uncertainties necessitated by the relatively low signal-to-noise ratio exhibited in the upper troposphere by eye-safe network instruments, especially during daytime. Furthermore, a multitemporal averaging scheme is used to improve cloud detection under conditions of a weak signal-to-noise ratio. Diurnal and seasonal cycles of cloud occurrence frequency based on one year of measurements at the Goddard Space Flight Center (Greenbelt, Maryland) site are compared for the new and previous versions. The largest differences, and perceived improvement, in detection occurs for high clouds (above 5 km, above MSL), which increase in occurrence by over 5%. There is also an increase in the detection of multilayered cloud profiles from 9% to 19%. Macrophysical properties and estimates of cloud optical depth are presented for a transparent cirrus dataset. However, the limit to which the cirrus cloud optical depth could be reliably estimated occurs between 0.5 and 0.8. A comparison using collocated CALIPSO measurements at the Goddard Space Flight Center and Singapore Micro Pulse Lidar Network (MPLNET) sites indicates improvements in cloud occurrence frequencies and layer heights.

AB Long-term functional results remain equivocal between operative fixation and closed management of displaced humeral medial epicondyle fractures. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a functional difference exists between treatment types.
One hundred and forty patients with a displaced medial epicondyle fracture between 2007 and 2014 met the inclusion criteria. Of this large cohort, only 12 patients agreed to return to clinic at a mean follow-up of 3 years for prospective evaluation. Data collection included radiographs, physical examination, validated outcome tools, and grip strength testing with a Jamar dynamometer.
Both groups were comparable with regard to age, dominant side injured, length of follow-up, preinjury sports involvement, and initial displacement (10 mm operative vs. 9 mm nonoperative); however, half of the surgical group presented with an associated unreduced elbow dislocation versus 0 % in the nonoperative group. Both treatment methods resulted in high patient satisfaction and elbow function scores. There were four osseous nonunions (67 %) and one malunion (17 %) in the nonoperative group versus none in the operative group (p = 0.015). Patients treated nonoperatively had a nonsignificant decrease in grip strength (9 +/- A 6 lbs) as compared to operative patients (6 +/- A 5 lbs, medium effect size eta = 0.25, p = 0.25).
In this small cohort, operative management of displaced medial epicondyle fractures resulted in a higher rate of fracture union and return to sports. Other objective and subjective measures were similar between the two treatment groups.

AB On 14 July 2014 during the Deep Propagating Gravity Wave Experiment (DEEPWAVE), aircraft remote sensing instruments detected large-amplitude gravity wave oscillations within mesospheric airglow and sodium layers at altitudes z similar to 78-83 km downstream of the Auckland Islands, located similar to 1000 km south of Christchurch, New Zealand. A high-altitude reanalysis and a three-dimensional Fourier gravity wave model are used to investigate the dynamics of this event. At 0700 UTC when the first observations were made, surface flow across the islands' terrain generated linear three-dimensional wave fields that propagated rapidly to z similar to 78 km, where intense breaking occurred in a narrow layer beneath a zero-wind region at z similar to 83 km. In the following hours, the altitude of weak winds descended under the influence of a large-amplitude migrating semidiurnal tide, leading to intense breaking of these wave fields in subsequent observations starting at 1000 UTC. The linear Fourier model constrained by upstream reanalysis reproduces the salient aspects of observed wave fields, including horizontal wavelengths, phase orientations, temperature and vertical displacement amplitudes, heights and locations of incipient wave breaking, and momentum fluxes. Wave breaking has huge effects on local circulations, with inferred layer-averaged westward flow accelerations of similar to 350 ms(-1) h(-1) and dynamical heating rates of similar to 8K h(-1), supporting recent speculation of important impacts of orographic gravity waves from subantarctic islands on the mean circulation and climate of the middle atmosphere during austral winter.

AB Buoyancy reversal by evaporative cooling in entrainment holes has a minimal influence on stratocumulus (Sc) observed during the Physics of Stratocumulus Top (POST) aircraft field study held off the California coast in 2008. High-resolution temperature and microphysics measurements show only small differences for Sc with and without buoyancy reversal predicted by mixing fraction analysis that relates mixtures of cloudy air and free-atmospheric air to buoyancies of the mixtures. The reduction of LWC due to evaporation in the holes is a small percentage (average similar to 12%) of liquid water diluted in the Sc by entrainment from the entrainment interface layer (EIL) located above unbroken cloud top where most mixing, evaporation, and reduction of the large buoyancy jump between the cloud and free atmosphere occur. Entrainment is dominated by radiative cooling at cloud top.

AB Polyester polyurethane (PU) coatings are widely used to help protect underlying structural surfaces but are susceptible to biological degradation. PUs are susceptible to degradation by Pseudomonas species, due in part to the degradative activity of secreted hydrolytic enzymes. Microorganisms often respond to environmental cues by secreting enzymes or secondary metabolites to benefit their survival. This study investigated the impact of exposing several Pseudomonas strains to select carbon sources on the degradation of the colloidal polyester polyurethane Impranil DLN (Impranil). The prototypic Pseudomonas protegens strain Pf-5 exhibited Impranil-degrading activities when grown in sodium citrate but not in glucose-containing medium. Glucose also inhibited the induction of Impranil-degrading activity by citrate-fed Pf-5 in a dose-dependent manner. Biochemical and mutational analyses identified two extracellular lipases present in the Pf-5 culture supernatant (PueA and PueB) that were involved in degradation of Impranil. Deletion of the pueA gene reduced Impranil-clearing activities, while pueB deletion exhibited little effect. Removal of both genes was necessary to stop degradation of the polyurethane. Bioinformatic analysis showed that putative Cbr/Hfq/Crc-mediated regulatory elements were present in the intergenic sequences upstream of both pueA and pueB genes. Our results confirmed that both PueA and PueB extracellular enzymes act in concert to degrade Impranil. Furthermore, our data showed that carbon sources in the growth medium directly affected the levels of Impranil-degrading activity but that carbon source effects varied among Pseudomonas strains. This study uncovered an intricate and complicated regulation of P. protegens PU degradation activity controlled by carbon catabolite repression.
IMPORTANCE
Polyurethane (PU) coatings are commonly used to protect metals from corrosion. Microbiologically induced PU degradation might pose a substantial problem for the integrity of these coatings. Microorganisms from diverse genera, including pseudomonads, possess the ability to degrade PUs via various means. This work identified two extracellular lipases, PueA and PueB, secreted by P. protegens strain Pf-5, to be responsible for the degradation of a colloidal polyester PU, Impranil. This study also revealed that the expression of the degradative activity by strain Pf-5 is controlled by glucose carbon catabolite repression. Furthermore, this study showed that the Impranil-degrading activity of many other Pseudomonas strains could be influenced by different carbon sources. This work shed light on the carbon source regulation of PU degradation activity among pseudomonads and identified the polyurethane lipases in P. protegens.

AB The effect of microwave frequency electromagnetic fields on living microorganisms is an active and highly contested area of research. One of the major drawbacks to using mesophilic organisms to study microwave radiation effects is the unavoidable heating of the organism, which has limited the scale (<5 ml) and duration (<1 h) of experiments. However, the negative effects of heating a mesophile can be mitigated by employing thermophiles (organisms able to grow at temperatures of > 60 degrees C). This study identified changes in global gene expression profiles during the growth of Thermus scotoductus SA-01 at 65 degrees C using dielectric (2.45 GHz, i.e., microwave) heating. RNA sequencing was performed on cultures at 8, 14, and 24 h after inoculation to determine the molecular mechanisms contributing to long-term cellular growth and survival under microwave heating conditions. Over the course of growth, genes associated with amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, and defense mechanisms were upregulated; the number of repressed genes with unknown function increased; and at all time points, transposases were upregulated. Genes involved in cell wall biogenesis and elongation were also upregulated, consistent with the distinct elongated cell morphology observed after 24 h using microwave heating. Analysis of the global differential gene expression data enabled the identification of molecular processes specific to the response of T. scotoductus SA-01 to dielectric heating during growth.
IMPORTANCE
The residual heating of living organisms in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum has complicated the identification of radiation-only effects using microorganisms for 50 years. A majority of the previous experiments used either mature cells or short exposure times with low-energy high-frequency radiation. Using global differential gene expression data, we identified molecular processes unique to dielectric heating using Thermus scotoductus SA-01 cultured over 30 h in a commercial microwave digestor. Genes associated with amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, and defense mechanisms were upregulated; the number of repressed genes with unknown function increased; and at all time points, transposases were upregulated. These findings serve as a platform for future studies with mesophiles in order to better understand the response of microorganisms to microwave radiation.

AB An ensemble forecast system has been developed at the Naval Research Laboratory to improve the analyses and forecasts of atmospheric refractivity for electromagnetic (EM) propagation with the intention of accounting for uncertainties in model forecast errors. Algorithms for a matrix of ensemble statistics have been developed to analyze the probability, location, intensity, and structure of ducting of various types. Major parameters of ducting layers and their ensemble statistics are calculated from the ensemble forecasts. Their relationships to the large-scale and mesoscale environment are also investigated. The Wallops Island field experiment from late April to early May 2000 is selected to evaluate the system. During the spring season, this coastal region maintains a strong sea surface temperature gradient between cold shelf waters and the warm Gulf Stream, where the boundaries between land, the coastal water, and the Gulf Stream have a strong influence on marine boundary layer structures and the formation of ducting layers. Sounding profiles during the field experiment are used in the study to further understand the structures of the ducting layers and also to validate the ensemble forecast system. While some advantages of the ensemble system over the deterministic forecast for atmospheric refractivity prediction in the boundary layer are studied and demonstrated in this study, the weaknesses of the current ensemble system are revealed for future improvement of the system.

AB In this study we examine two-component shear flows that are stable with respect to Kelvin-Helmholtz and to double-diffusive instabilities individually. Our focus is on diffusively stratified ocean regions, where relatively warm and salty water masses are located below cool fresh ones. It is shown that such systems may be destabilized by the interplay between shear and thermohaline effects, caused by unequal molecular diffusivities of density components. Linear stability analysis suggests that parallel two-component flows can be unstable for Richardson numbers exceeding the critical value for non-dissipative systems (Ri = 1/4) by up to four orders of magnitude. Direct numerical simulations indicate that these instabilities transform the initially linear density stratification into a series of well-defined horizontal layers. It is hypothesized that the combined thermohaline-shear instabilities could be ultimately responsible for the widespread occurrence of thermohaline staircases in diffusively stable regions of the World Ocean.

AB This paper presents an alternative approach to the regularized least squares solution of ill-posed inverse problems. Instead of solving a minimization problem with an objective function composed of a data term and a regularization term, the regularization information is used to define a projection onto a convex subspace of regularized candidate solutions. The objective function is modified to include the projection of each iterate in the place of the regularization. Numerical experiments based on the problem of motion estimation for geophysical fluid images, show the improvement of the proposed method compared with regularization methods. For the presented test case, the incremental projection method uses 7 times less computation time than the regularization method, to reach the same error target. Moreover, at convergence, the incremental projection is two order of magnitude more accurate than the regularization method.

TI Startup and Steady-State Performance of a New Renewable Hydroprocessed
Depolymerized Cellulosic Diesel Fuel in Multiple Diesel Engines
SO JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING FOR GAS TURBINES AND POWER-TRANSACTIONS OF THE
ASME
LA English
DT Article
AB A new hydroprocessed depolymerized cellulosic diesel (HDCD) fuel has been developed using a process which takes biomass feedstock (principally cellulosic wood) to produce a synthetic fuel that has nominally 1/2 cycloparaffins and 1/2 aromatic hydrocarbons in content. This HDCD fuel with a low cetane value (derived cetane number from the ignition quality tester, DCN = 27) was blended with naval distillate fuel (NATO symbol F-76) in various quantities and tested in order to determine how much HDCD could be blended before diesel engine operation becomes problematic. Blends of 20% HDCD (DCN = 45), 30%, 40% (DCN = 41), and 60% HDCD (DCN = 37) by volume were tested with conventional naval distillate fuel (DCN = 49). Engine start performance was evaluated with a conventional mechanically direct injected (DI) Yanmar engine and a Waukesha mechanical indirect injected (IDI) Cooperative Fuels Research (CFR) diesel engine and showed that engine start times increased steadily with increasing HDCD content. Longer start times with increasing HDCD content were the result of some engine cycles with poor combustion leading to a slower rate of engine acceleration toward rated speed. A repeating sequence of alternating cycles which combust followed by a noncombustion cycle was common during engine run-up. Additionally, steady-state engine testing was also performed using both engines. HDCD has a significantly higher bulk modulus than F76 due to its very high aromatic content, and the engines showed earlier start of injection (SOI) timing with increasing HDCD content for equivalent operating conditions. Additionally, due to the lower DCN, the higher HDCD blends showed moderately longer ignition delay (IGD) with moderately shorter overall burn durations. Thus, the midcombustion metric (CA50: 50% burn duration crank angle position) was only modestly affected with increasing HDCD content. Increasing HDCD content beyond 40% leads to significantly longer start times.

AB Charity watchdogs and the media level serious allegations of mismanagement of funds at charities serving former and current members of the U.S. armed services, affecting service recipients, families, donors, grantors, foundations, and taxpayers. To examine these allegations, we use two approaches from the literature to assess nonprofit financial effectiveness: the organization's ability to gain resources and to sustain activities. We mirror the approach of charity raters, whose measures are widely available to the public. Using GuideStar/Internal Revenue Service data, we compare fund-raising expenditures, assets, and financial sustainability of large national military and veterans nonprofits to a random sample of national nonprofits. We apply propensity score matching and compare organizations similar in size, age, and other factors. We find little difference between military and veterans charities and other nonprofits and provide an improved method for evaluating the financial health of nonprofits across academic discipline, nonprofit field of service, and within or among countries.

AB A statistical modeling technique known as the random coupling model (RCM) is an effective method for estimating the probabilistic magnitudes of induced voltages on objects within a closed, complex, three-dimensional (3-D) enclosure. The limitations of the RCM to predict electromagnetic wave coupling into an enclosure with apertures are examined. We experimentally demonstrate the applicability of the RCM to estimate the probabilistic magnitudes of voltages induced on ports in a complex 3-D enclosure with an electrically large aperture. This study is a first step toward being able to predict effects on sensitive electronic targets in large, real-world, lossy enclosures such as office buildings, ship compartments, and aircraft compartments.

AB Three 26650 LiFePO4 (LFP) cells are cycled using a 40 A pulsed charge/discharge profile to study their performance in high rate pulsed applications. This profile is used to simulate naval pulsed power loads planned for deployment aboard future vessels. The LFP cells studied experienced an exponential drop in their usable high-rate recharge capacity within sixty cycles due to a rapid rise in their internal resistance. Differential capacitance shows that the voltage window for charge storage is pushed outside of the recommended voltage cutoff limits. Investigation into the state of health of the electrodes shows minimal loss of active material from the cathode to side reactions. Post-mortem examination of the anodic surface films reveals & large increase in the concentration of reduced salt compounds indicating that the pulsed profile creates highly favorable conditions for LiPF6 salt to break down into LiF. This film slows the ionic movement at the interface, affecting transfer kinetics, resulting in charge buildup in the bulk anode without successful energy storage. The results indicate that the use of these cells as a power supply for high pulsed power loads is hindered because of ionically resistant film development and not by an increasing rate of active material loss.

AB An experimental investigation to understand the mechanisms of dynamic buckling instability in cylindrical structures due to underwater explosive loadings is conducted. In particular, the effects of initial hydrostatic pressure coupled with a dynamic pressure pulse on the stability of metallic cylindrical shells are evaluated. The experiments are conducted at varying initial hydrostatic pressures, below the critical buckling pressure, to estimate the threshold after which dynamic buckling will initiate. The transient underwater full-field deformations of the structures during shock wave loading are captured using high-speed stereo photography coupled with modified 3-D Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique. Experimental results show that increasing initial hydrostatic pressure decreases the natural vibration frequency of the structure indicating loss in structural stiffness. DIC measurements reveal that the initial structural excitations primarily consist of axisymmetric vibrations due to symmetrical shock wave loading in the experiments. Following their decay after a few longitudinal reverberations, the primary mode of vibration evolves which continues throughout later in time. At the initial hydrostatic pressures below the threshold value, these vibrations are stable in nature. The analytical solutions for the vibration frequency and the transient response of cylindrical shell are discussed in the article by accounting for both (1) the added mass effect of the surrounding water and (2) the effect of initial stress on the shell imposed by the hydrostatic pressure. The analytical solutions match reasonably well with the experimental vibration frequencies. Later, the transient response of a cylindrical shell subjected to a general underwater pressure wave loading is derived which leads to the analytical prediction of dynamic stability.

AB The fuzzy integral (FI) is an extremely flexible and powerful tool for data and information aggregation. The El is parametrized by the fuzzy measure (FM), a normal and monotone capacity. Based on the selection of FM, the FI produces different aggregation operators. In recent years, a number of FI extensions have been put forth relative to different types of uncertain information, e.g., real-, interval- and set-valued (under various constraints). Herein, we study the applicability and behavior of different extensions of the fuzzy Choquet integral for fusing homogeneous possibility and probability distributions. This analysis is of great utility in terms of understanding what extensions and under what conditions it is possible to aggregate and maintain homogeneity within uncertain information. We show that two extensions, gFI and NDFI, can aggregate both probability and possibility distributions. While these extensions do not always maintain homogeneity, they do under certain conditions. Last, while we specifically focus on the aggregation of homogeneous uncertain information, the propositions put forth also shed light into heterogeneous information aggregation via the gFI and the NDFI.

TI Bijections on m-level rook placements

ID NUMBERS
AB Suppose the rows of a board are partitioned into sets of m rows called levels. An m-level rook placement is a subset of the board where no two squares are in the same column or the same level. We construct explicit bijections to prove three theorems about such placements. We start with two bijections between Ferrers boards having the same number of m-level rook placements. The first generalizes a map by Foata and Schutzenberger and our proof applies to any Ferrers board. This bijection also preserves the m-inversion number statistic of an m-level rook placement, defined by Briggs and Remmel. The second generalizes work of Loehr and Remmel. This construction only works for a special class of Ferrers boards, but it yields a formula for calculating the rook numbers of these boards in terms of elementary symmetric functions. Finally we generalize another result of Loehr and Remmel giving a bijection between boards with the same hit numbers. The second and third bijections involve the Involution Principle of Garsia and Milne. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

N-2,4-dinitrophenyl-N-1-nitroguanidine (DNP-NQ) has a crystal density of 1.74g/cm(3). The synthesis and properties of DNP-NQ are described. DNP-NQ was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared spectroscopy, and gas pycnometry. Thermal properties were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Results from small-scale sensitivity tests indicate that DNP-NQ is less sensitive than Cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX). DNP-NQ can be prepared in high yield.

AB Nanosphere lithography (NSL) has been widely used as an inexpensive method to create periodic arrays of metallic nanoparticles or nanodiscs on substrates. However, most nanodisc arrays derived from a NSL template are restricted to hexagonally-ordered triangular arrays because the metal layer is deposited onto the interstices between the nanospheres. Metallic nanodisc arrays with the same arrangement as the original nanosphere array have been rarely reported. Here, we demonstrate a facile, low-cost method to fabricate large-area hexagonal arrays of metallic nanodiscs using an NSL template combined with a two-step lift-off process. We employ a bi-layer of two dissimilar metals to create a re-entrant sidewall profile to undercut the sacrificial layer and facilitate the final lift-off of the metallic nanodiscs. The quality of the nanodisc pattern and the array periodicity is determined using statistical image analysis and compared to the original nanosphere array in terms of size distribution, surface smoothness, and array pitch. This nanodisc array is used as an etch mask to create a vertically-aligned Si nanowire array. This combined approach is a scalable and inexpensive fabrication method for creating relatively large-area, ordered arrays of various nanostructures.

AB Although Li/CFx and Li/CFxMnO2 have two of the highest energy densities of all commercial lithium primary batteries known to date, they are typically current-limited and therefore are not used in high power applications. In this work, a Li/CFxMnO2 battery (BA-5790) was hybridized with a 1000 F lithium ion capacitor to allow its use for portable electronic devices requiring 100 W 1-min pulses. An intelligent, power-management board was developed for managing the energy flow between the components. The hybrid architecture was shown to maintain the battery current to a level that minimized energy loss and thermal stress. The performance of the Li/CFxMnO(2) hybrid was compared to the standard Li/SO2 battery (BA-5590). The hybrid was shown to deliver the same number of 100 W pulse cycles as two BA-5590 batteries, resulting in a weight savings of 30% and a volumetric reduction of 20%. For devices requiring 8 h of operational time or less, a 5-cell Li/CFxMnO2 hybrid was found to be a lighter (55%) and smaller (45%) power source than the existing two BA-5590 battery option, and a lighter (42%) and smaller (27%) option than 1 1/2 BA-5790 batteries alone. At higher power requirements (>100 W), further weight and size improvements can be expected. (C) 2016 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Alpha-numeric gesture refers to writing in air of alphabet and numeric characters. With prevalent usage of vision enabled smart devices, these gestures are considered as an alternative user interface. As each individual has a unique handwriting style, it has been observed that alpha-numeric gesturing also exhibits different individualistic styles, posing a challenge to the vision based gesture recognition. In this Letter, a simple but effective method of modelling alpha-numeric hand gestures by fusing temporal-feature-state modelling and total-trajectory-shape modelling is proposed. The proposed method employs a convolution neural network that represents total-trajectory-shapes, and combines it with conventional conditional random fields based temporal-feature-state modelling. The proposed algorithm is evaluated in public database of both alphabet and numeric hand gestures. Experimental results show a performance improvement of the proposed algorithm compared with the state-of-the art methods.

AB Although the crystalline alpha and gamma phases are the most stable forms of alumina, small-diameter (<6 nm) nanoparticles are known to be completely amorphous, due to the surface energy being correspondingly lower for the less stable non-crystalline phase. Al2O3 films with a thickness of 5 nm grown by low temperature (200 degrees C) atomic layer deposition (ALD) on small-diameter (<20 nm) Ga2O3 nanowires (NWs), however, are identified by transmission electron microscopy as belonging to the alpha, gamma, and possibly theta crystalline phases of Al2O3, while films deposited on larger diameter (>20 nm) NWs are found to be amorphous. Indeed, until recently, all Al2O3, films deposited by low-temperature ALD using trimethylaluminum and water have been reported to be amorphous, regardless of film thickness or substrate. The formation of a crystalline ALD film can be understood in terms of the energetics of misfit dislocations that maintain the registry between the ALD film and the NW substrate, as well as the influence of strain and surface energy. The decreasing energy of co-axial misfit dislocations with NW diameter results in a corresponding decrease in the contribution of the Al2O3/Ga2O3 interface to the free energy, while the interfacial energy for an amorphous film is independent of the NW diameter. Therefore, for NW cores of sufficiently small diameter, the free energy contribution of the Al2O3/Ga2O3 interface is smaller for crystalline films than for amorphous films, thereby favoring the formation of crystalline films for small-diameter NWs. For ALD Al2O3 films of 10 nm thickness deposited on small-diameter Ga2O3 NWs, however, only the first 5 nm of the ALD film is found to be crystalline, possibly due to well-established kinetic limitations to low temperature epitaxial growth.

AB We analyze the possibility to exploit charge-dipole interaction between a single polar molecule or a one-dimensional (1D) molecular array and a single Rydberg atom to read out molecular rotational populations. We calculate the energy shift of a single Rb(60s) atom interacting with a single KRb or RbYb molecule in their lowest two rotational states. At atom-molecule distances, relevant to trapping of molecules in optical lattices, the Rydberg electron energy shifts conditioned on the rotational states, are of the order of several MHz. Atom excitation to a Rydberg state and detection of atomic fluorescence conditioned on a rotational state preserves the molecule, making our scheme a nondestructive measurement of the rotational state. Similarly, a 1D array of polar molecules can shift the electron energy of a blockaded Rydberg superatom. We consider a scheme to read out the molecular array collective rotational states using the conditioned Rydberg energy shifts, and numerically analyze a system with three and five KRb or RbYb molecules interacting with Rb(60s) superatom.

TI A reduced order model for dielectric elastomer actuators over a range of

ID ELECTROACTIVE POLYMER ACTUATORS; ACRYLIC ELASTOMER
AB The actuation strain of an equibiaxially prestrained dielectric elastomer membrane is studied as a function of driving frequency and prestrain. Experimental data are gathered on the membrane's creep and recovery following DC actuation, as well as the steady state amplitude and phase for AC driving voltages ranging from 2 to 40 Hz. The effect of prestretch on steady state actuation was also investigated, using membranes of both 250% and 300% prestretch. A three-element generalized Kelvin-Voigt model is developed to capture the transient and steady-state actuation responses as a function of frequency and prestrain. We show that, despite its relative simplicity, this model captures the relevant timescales for the membrane behavior with good fidelity and can be used to accurately predict the actuation magnitude and phase as a function of time over a range of actuation configurations and driving conditions.

AB Here, we present the observation of a bias-induced, degradation-enhancing defect process in plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy grown reverse gate-biased AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), which is compatible with the current theoretical framework of HEMT degradation. Specifically, we utilize both conventional transmission electron microscopy and aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy to analyze microstructural changes in not only high strained regions in degraded AlGaN/GaN HEMTs but also the extended gate-drain access region. We find a complex defect structure containing an I-2 basal stacking fault and offer a potential mechanism for device degradation based on this defect structure. This work supports the reality of multiple failure mechanisms during device operation and identifies a defect potentially involved with device degradation. Published by AIP Publishing.

AB This paper presents the heteroepitaxial growth of ultrawide bandgap beta-Ga2O3 thin films on c-plane sapphire substrates by low pressure chemical vapor deposition. N-type conductivity in silicon (Si)doped beta-Ga2O3 films grown on sapphire substrate is demonstrated. The thin films were synthesized using high purity metallic gallium (Ga) and oxygen (O-2) as precursors. The morphology, crystal quality, and properties of the as-grown thin films were characterized and analyzed by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, electron backscatter diffraction, photoluminescence and optical, photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy, and temperature dependent van der Pauw/Hall measurement. The optical bandgap is similar to 4.76 eV, and room temperature electron mobility of 42.35 cm(2)/V s was measured for a Si-doped heteroepitaxial beta-Ga2O3 film with a doping concentration of 1.32 x 10(18) cm(-3).

AB We present measurements of second-order azimuthal anisotropy (v(2)) at midrapidity (vertical bar y vertical bar < 1.0) for light nuclei d, t, He-3 (for root s(NN) = 200, 62.4, 39, 27, 19.6, 11.5, and 7.7 GeV) and antinuclei <(d)over bar> (root s(NN) = 200, 62.4, 39, 27, and 19.6 GeV) and (3)(He) over bar (root s(NN) = 200 GeV) in the STAR (Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC) experiment. The v(2) for these light nuclei produced in heavy-ion collisions is compared with those for p and (p) over bar. We observe mass ordering in nuclei v(2)(p(T)) at low transverse momenta (p(T) < 2.0 GeV/c). We also find a centrality dependence of v(2) for d and <(d)over bar>. The magnitude of v(2) for t and He-3 agree within statistical errors. Light-nuclei v(2) are compared with predictions from a blast-wave model. Atomic mass number (A) scaling of light-nuclei v(2)(p(T)) seems to hold for p(T)/A < 1.5 GeV/c. Results on light-nuclei v(2) from a transport-plus-coalescence model are consistent with the experimental measurements.

ID CRITICAL-TEMPERATURE; POLARITONS; MEDIA
AB One of the most important goals of condensed matter physics is materials by design, i.e. the ability to reliably predict and design materials with a set of desired properties. A striking example is the deterministic enhancement of the superconducting properties of materials. Recent experiments have demonstrated that the metamaterial approach is capable of achieving this goal, such as tripling the critical temperature T-C in Al-Al2O3 epsilon near zero (ENZ) core-shell metamaterial superconductors. Here, we demonstrate that an Al/Al2O3 hyperbolic metamaterial geometry is capable of a similar T-C enhancement, while having superior transport and magnetic properties compared to the core-shell metamaterial superconductors.

AB Background: Vaccination is the most important preventive strategy against influenza, however post-vaccination antibody responses are often inadequate especially among HIV-infected persons. Vitamin D deficiency has been suggested to adversely influence immune responses and is highly prevalent among HIV-infected adults. Therefore, we evaluated the association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and post-influenza vaccination responses.
Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study evaluating the immunogenicity of monovalent influenza A (H1N1) vaccination among both HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected adults (18-50 years of age) during the 2009-2010 influenza season. Antibody titers were evaluated at baseline, day 28, and 6 months post-vaccination using hemagluttination inhibition assays. Serum 25(OH)D levels were measured at day 28. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses examined the association between 25(OH)D levels [categorized as <20 ng/ml (deficiency) vs. >= 20 ng/ml]with the primary outcome of seroconversion. Secondary outcomes included seroprotection; a >= 4-fold increase in titers; and geometric mean titers post-vaccination. Analyses were repeated using 25(OH)D levels as a continuous variable.
Results: A total of 128 adults [64 HIV-infected (median CD4 count 580 cells/mm(3)) and 64 HIV-uninfected] were included. Seroconversion at day 28 post-vaccination was achieved in fewer HIV- infected participants compared with HIV-uninfected participants (56% vs. 74%, p = 0.03). Vitamin D deficiency was more prevalent among HIV-infected persons vs. HIV-uninfected persons (25% vs. 17%), although not significantly different (p = 0.39). There were no associations found between lower 25(OH) D levels and poorer antibody responses at day 28 or 6 months for any of the study outcomes among either HIV-infected or HIV-uninfected adults.
Conclusion: Vitamin D deficiency was common among both HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected adults, but lower levels did not predict antibody responses after H1N1 (2009) influenza vaccination. Low 25(OH)D levels do not explain poorer post-vaccination responses among HIV-infected persons. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Stellated metal nanostructures are a crass of plasmonic colloids in which large electric field enhancements can occur at their sharp tips, making them excellent candidates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and surface-enhanced infrared spectroscopy (SE-IRS) platforms. Shape-dependent rules for convex polyhedra such as cubes, nanorods, or octahedra exist, which describe far-field scattering and near-field enhancements. However, such rules are lacking for their concave counterparts, which include stellated structures. Here, the optical response of stellated Au nanocrystals with O-h, D-4h, D-3h, C-2v, and T-d symmetry were modeled to systematically investigate the role of symmetry, branching, and particle orientation with respect to excitation source using finite difference time domain (FDTD) calculations. Furthermore, these results are compared to experimentally obtained localized surface plasmon bands determined by UV-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy for ensembles of similarly shaped metallic nanostructures. These UV-vis spectra include that of the first reported all-Au octopodal structure achieved from seed-mediated methods. From these studies,-symmetry-dependent rules governing, the far-field- and near-field optical response are outlined. These rules can be applied to a variety of concave striictures to yield the optimized far-field and near-field responses for SERS and SE-IRS platforms.

AB We exploit the high spatial resolution and high cadence of the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph ( IRIS) to investigate the response of the transition region and chromosphere to energy deposition during a small flare. Simultaneous observations from the Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager provide constraints on the energetic electrons precipitating into the flare footpoints, while observations of the X-Ray Telescope, Atmospheric Imaging Assembly, and Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer ( EIS) allow us to measure the temperatures and emission measures from the resulting flare loops. We find clear evidence for heating over an extended period on the spatial scale of a single IRIS pixel. During the impulsive phase of this event, the intensities in each pixel for the Si IV 1402.770 angstrom, C II 1334.535 angstrom, Mg II 2796.354 angstrom, and O I 1355.598 angstrom emission lines are characterized by numerous small-scale bursts typically lasting 60 s or less. Redshifts are observed in Si IV, C II, and Mg II during the impulsive phase. Mg II shows redshifts during the bursts and stationary emission at other times. The Si IV and C II profiles, in contrast, are observed to be redshifted at all times during the impulsive phase. These persistent redshifts are a challenge for one-dimensional hydrodynamic models, which predict only short-duration downflows in response to impulsive heating. We conjecture that energy is being released on many small- scale filaments with a power-law distribution of heating rates.

AB The effects of bromomethane (BrCH3), an airborne contaminant, on the performance of a single PEMFC are compared with that of another halocarbon, chlorobenzene. Under a constant current of 1 A cm (2) and at 45 degrees C, 20 ppm bromomethane causes approximately 30% cell voltage loss in approximately 30 h, as opposed to much more rapid performance degradation observed with chlorobenzene. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, linear scanning voltammetry, and polarization measurements are applied to characterize the temporary electrochemical reaction effect and permanent performance effects. X-ray absorption spectroscopy is used to confirm that Br is adsorbed on the Pt electrocatalyst surface. We conclude that airborne bromomethane poisons a PEMFC in a different way from chlorobenzene because it is largely hydrolyzed to bromide, Br , which is then excluded from the Pt catalyst by the negatively charged Nafion ionomer. The little Br and bromomethane that adsorbs on the Pt surface can be partially removed by cycling but causes some irreversible surface area loss. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Ecological, behavioral and biomechanical studies often need to quantify animal movement and behavior in three dimensions. In laboratory studies, a common tool to accomplish these measurements is the use of multiple, calibrated high-speed cameras. Until very recently, the complexity, weight and cost of such cameras have made their deployment in field situations risky; furthermore, such cameras are not affordable to many researchers. Here, we show how inexpensive, consumer-grade cameras can adequately accomplish these measurements both within the laboratory and in the field. Combined with our methods and open source software, the availability of inexpensive, portable and rugged cameras will open up new areas of biological study by providing precise 3D tracking and quantification of animal and human movement to researchers in a wide variety of field and laboratory contexts.

AB The Regional Arctic System Model (RASM) is a fully coupled, regional Earth system model applied over the pan-Arctic domain. This paper discusses the implementation of the Variable Infiltration Capacity land surface model (VIC) in RASM and evaluates the ability of RASM, version 1.0, to capture key features of the land surface climate and hydrologic cycle for the period 1979-2014 in comparison with uncoupled VIC simulations, reanalysis datasets, satellite measurements, and in situ observations. RASM reproduces the dominant features of the land surface climatology in the Arctic, such as the amount and regional distribution of precipitation, the partitioning of precipitation between runoff and evapotranspiration, the effects of snow on the water and energy balance, and the differences in turbulent fluxes between the tundra and taiga biomes. Surface air temperature biases in RASM, compared to reanalysis datasets ERA-Interim and MERRA, are generally less than 2 degrees C; however, in the cold seasons there are local biases that exceed 6 degrees C. Compared to satellite observations, RASM captures the annual cycle of snow-covered area well, although melt progresses about two weeks faster than observations in the late spring at high latitudes. With respect to derived fluxes, such as latent heat or runoff, RASM is shown to have similar performance statistics as ERA-Interim while differing substantially from MERRA, which consistently overestimates the evaporative flux across the Arctic region.

SO PHYSICAL REVIEW A

DT Article
ID BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATION; TEMPERATURE; GASES
AB We consider the ground state properties of a trapped dipolar condensate under the influence of quantum fluctuations. We show that this system can undergo a phase transition from a low density condensate state to a high density droplet state, which is stabilized by quantum fluctuations. The energetically favored state depends on the geometry of the confining potential, the number of atoms, and the two-body interactions. We develop a simple variational ansatz and validate it against full numerical solutions. We produce a phase diagram for the system and present results relevant to current experiments with dysprosium and erbium condensates.

AB Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus secondary alcohol dehydrogenase (SADH) reduces aliphatic ketones according to Prelog's Rule, with binding pockets for small and large substituents. It was shown previously that the I86A mutant SADH reduces acetophenone, which is not a substrate of wild-type SADH, to give the anti-Prelog R-product (Musa, M. M.; Lott, N.; Laivenieks, M.; Watanabe, L; Vieille, C.; Phillips, R. S. ChemCatChem 2009,1, 89-93.). However, I86A SADH did not reduce aryl ketones with substituents larger than fluorine. We have now expanded the small pocket of the active site of I86A SADH by mutation of Cys-295 to alanine to allow reaction of substituted acetophenones. As predicted, the double mutant I86A/ C295A SADH has broadened substrate specificity for meta-substituted, but not pars-substituted, acetophenones. However, the increase of the substrate specificity of I86A/C295A SADH is accompanied by a decrease in the k(cat)/K-m, values of acetophenones, possibly due to the substrates fitting loosely inside the more open active site. Nevertheless, I86A/C295A SADH gives high conversions and very high enantiomeric excess of the anti-Prelog R-alcohols from the tested substrates. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB Single crystals of mercurous halide were grown by physical vapor transport method (PVT). The orientation and the crystalline quality of the grown crystals were determined using high resolution x-ray diffraction (HRXRD) technique. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the grown mercurous bromide crystals was measured to be 0.13 degrees for (004) reflection, which is the best that has been achieved so far for PVT grown mercurous halide single crystals. The extended defects of the crystals were also analyzed using high resolution x-ray diffraction topography. Preliminary studies were carried out to evaluate the performance of the crystals on acousto-optic modulator (AOM) and gamma-ray detector applications. The results indicate the grown mercurous halide crystals are excellent materials for acousto-optic modulator device fabrication. The diffraction efficiencies of the fabricated AOM device with 1152 and 1523 nm wavelength lasers polarizing parallel to the acoustic wave were found to be 35% and 28%, respectively. The results also indicate the grown crystals are a promising material for gamma-ray detector application with a very high energy resolution of 1.86% FVVHM. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Precipitation tends to decrease as aerosol concentration increases in warm marine boundary layer clouds at fixed liquid water path (LWP). The quantitative nature of this relationship is captured using the precipitation susceptibility (S-o) metric. Previously published works disagree on the qualitative behavior of S-o in marine low clouds: S-o decreases monotonically with increasing LWP or cloud depth (H) in stratocumulus clouds (Sc), while it increases and then decreases in shallow cumulus clouds (Cu). This study uses airborne measurements from four field campaigns on Cu and Sc with similar instrument packages and flight maneuvers to examine if and why S-o behavior varies as a function of cloud type. The findings show that S-o increases with H and then decreases in both Sc and Cu. Possible reasons for why these results differ from those in previous studies of Sc are discussed.

AB We model and analyze the effect of particle shape on the signal amplification in inductive coil magnetic resonance detection using the reversible transverse magnetic susceptibility of oriented magnetic nanostructures. Utilizing the single magnetic domain Stoner-Wohlfarth model of uniform magnetization rotation, we reveal that different ellipsoidal particle shapes can have a pronounced effect on the magnetic flux enhancement in detection configurations typical of magnetic resonance settings. We compare and contrast the prolate ellipsoids, oblate ellipsoids, and exchange-biased spheres and show that the oblate ellipsoids and exchange-biased spheres have a significantly higher flux amplification effect than the prolate ellipsoids considered previously. In addition, oblate ellipsoids have a much broader polarizing magnetic field range over which their transverse flux amplification is significant. We show the dependence of transverse flux amplification on magnetic resonance bias field and discuss the resulting signal-to-noise ratio of inductive magnetic resonance detection due to the magnetic nanoparticle-filled core of the magnetic resonance detection coil.

AB Polar dielectrics have garnered much attention as an alternative to plasmonic metals in the mid-to long-wave infrared spectral regime due to their low optical losses. As such, nanoscale resonators composed of these materials demonstrate figures of merit beyond those achievable in plasmonic equivalents. However, until now, only low-order, phonon-mediated, localized polariton resonances, known as surface phonon polaritons (SPhPs), have been observed in polar dielectric optical resonators. In the present work, we investigate the excitation of 16 distinct high-order, multipolar, localized surface phonon polariton resonances that are optically excited in rectangular pillars etched into a semi-insulating silicon carbide substrate. By elongating a single pillar axis we are able to significantly modify the far-and near-field properties of localized SPhP resonances, opening the door to realizing narrow-band infrared sources with tailored radiation patterns. Such control of the near-field behavior of resonances can also impact surface enhanced infrared optical sensing, which is mediated by polarization selection rules, as well as the morphology and strength of resonator hot spots. Furthermore, through the careful choice of polar dielectric material, these results can also serve as the guiding principles for the generalized design of optical devices that operate from the mid-to far-infrared.

TI Non-Ising-like two-dimensional superconductivity in a bulk single
crystal
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID CRITICAL FIELDS; PDTE2 CHAINS; TA4PD3TE16; VORTICES
AB Both Nb3PdxSe7 and Ta4Pd3Te16 crystallize in a monoclinic point group while exhibiting superconducting transition temperatures as high as T-c similar to 3.5 and similar to 4.7K, respectively. Disorder was claimed to lead to the extremely large upper critical fields (H-c2) observed in related compounds. Despite the presence of disorder and heavier elements, H-c2s in Ta4Pd3Te16 are found to be considerably smaller than those of Nb3PdxSe7 while displaying an anomalous, nonsaturating linear dependence on temperature T for fields along all three crystallographic axes. In contrast, crystals of the latter compound displaying the highest T(c)s display H-c2 alpha (1-T/T-c)(1/2), which in monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides is claimed to be evidence for an Ising paired superconducting state resulting from strong spin-orbit coupling. This anomalous T dependence indicates that the superconducting state of Nb3PdxSe7 is quasi-two-dimensional in nature. This is further supported by a nearly divergent anisotropy in upper-critical fields, i.e., gamma= H-c2(b)/H-c2(a)', upon approaching T-c. Hence, in Nb3PdxSe7 the increase of T-c correlates with a marked reduction in electronic dimensionality as observed, for example, in intercalated FeSe. For the Nb compound, Density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate that an increase in the external field produces an anisotropic orbital response, with especially strong polarization at the Pd sites when the field is perpendicular to their square planar environment. The field also produces an anisotropic spin moment at both Pd sites. Therefore, DFT suggests the field-induced pinning of the spin to the lattice as a possible mechanism for decoupling the superconducting planes.

TI Hybrid dynamics in delay-coupled swarms with mothership networks
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW E
LA English
DT Article
ID CHEMOTACTIC BACTERIA; PATTERNS; SYSTEMS; AGENTS
AB Swarming behavior continues to be a subject of immense interest because of its centrality in many naturally occurring systems in physics and biology, as well as its importance in applications such as robotics. Here we examine the effects on swarm pattern formation from delayed communication and topological heterogeneity, and in particular, the inclusion of a relatively small number of highly connected nodes, or "motherships," in a swarm's communication network. We find generalized forms of basic patterns for networks with general degree distributions, and a variety of dynamic behaviors including parameter regions with multistability and hybrid motions in bimodal networks. The latter is an interesting example of how heterogeneous networks can have dynamics that is a mix of different states in homogeneous networks, where high-and low-degree nodes have distinct behavior simultaneously.

The charged-hadron per-trigger yields at mid-rapidity from central Au+Au collisions are compared with p + p collisions to quantify the suppression in Au+Au collisions. The suppression of the away-side associated-particle yields per gamma(dir) trigger is independent of the transverse momentum of the trigger particle (p(T)(trig)), whereas the suppression is smaller at low transverse momentum of the associated charged hadrons (p(T)(assoc)). Within uncertainty, similar levels of suppression are observed for gamma(dir) and pi(0) triggers as a function of z(T) (equivalent to p(T)(assoc)/p(T)(tri)). The results are compared with energy-loss-inspired theoretical model predictions. Our studies support previous conclusions that the lost energy reappears predominantly at low transverse momentum, regardless of the trigger energy. (C) 2016 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB This paper presents a computationally efficient approach for mobile subscriber position estimation in wireless networks. A method of data scaling assisted by timing adjust is introduced in fingerprint-based location estimation under a framework which allows for minimising computational cost. The proposed method maintains a comparable level of accuracy to the traditional case where no data scaling is used and is evaluated in a simulated environment under varying channel conditions. The proposed scheme is studied when it is augmented by a hidden-Markov model to match the internal parameters to the channel conditions that present, thus minimising computational cost while maximising accuracy. Furthermore, the timing adjust quantity, available in modern wireless signalling messages, is shown to be able to further reduce computational cost and increase accuracy when available. The results may be seen as a significant step towards integrating advanced position-based modelling with power-sensitive mobile devices.

AB Many different approaches exist to calculate stopping power and range of protons and heavy charged particles. These methods may be broadly categorized as physically complete theories (widely applicable and complex) or semi-empirical approaches (narrowly applicable and simple). However, little attention has been paid in the literature to approaches that are both widely applicable and simple. We developed simple analytical models of stopping power and range for ions of hydrogen, carbon, iron, and uranium that spanned intervals of ion energy from 351 keV u(-1) to 450 MeV u(-1) or wider. The analytical models typically reproduced the best-available evaluated stopping powers within 1% and ranges within 0.1 mm. The computational speed of the analytical stopping power model was 28% faster than a full-theoretical approach. The calculation of range using the analytic range model was 945 times faster than a widely-used numerical integration technique. The results of this study revealed that the new, simple analytical models are accurate, fast, and broadly applicable. The new models require just 6 parameters to calculate stopping power and range for a given ion and absorber. The proposed model may be useful as an alternative to traditional approaches, especially in applications that demand fast computation speed, small memory footprint, and simplicity.

AB Fractional occupation numbers can be used in density functional theory to create a symmetric Kohn-Sham potential, resulting in orbitals with degenerate eigenvalues. We develop the corresponding perturbation theory and apply it to a system of N-d degenerate electrons in a harmonic oscillator potential. The order-by-order expansions of both the fractional occupation numbers and unitary transformations within the degenerate subspace are determined by the requirement that a differentiable map exists connecting the initial and perturbed states. Using the X alpha exchange-correlation (XC) functional, we find an analytic solution for the first-order density and first-through third-order energies as a function of a, with and without a self-interaction correction. The fact that the XC Hessian is not positive definite plays an important role in the behavior of the occupation numbers.

AB An enolate driven copper-mediated cross-coupling process enabled cheaper and greener access to the key pentacyclic intermediates required for the enantiospecific total synthesis of a number of C-19 methyl substituted sarpagine/macroline indole alkaloids. Replacement of palladium (60-68%) with copper iodide (82-89%) resulted in much higher yields. The formation of an unusual 7-membered cross-coupling product was completely inhibited by using TEMPO as a radical scavenger. Further functionalization led to the first enantiospecific total synthesis of macrocarpines D and E.

AB The first super geomagnetic storm (Dst < -200 nT) of solar cycle 24 occurred on "St. Patrick's day" (17 March 2015). Notably, it was a two-step storm. The source of the storm can be traced back to the solar event on 15 March 2015. At similar to 2:10 UT on that day, SOHO/LASCO C3 recorded a partial halo coronal mass ejection (CME), which was associated with a C9.1/1F flare (S22W25) and a series of type II/IV radio bursts. The initial propagation speed of this CME is estimated to be similar to 668 km/s. An interplanetary (IP) shock, likely driven by a magnetic cloud (MC), arrived at the Wind spacecraft at 03:59 UT on 17 March and caused a sudden storm commencement. The storm intensified during the Earth's crossing of the ICME/shock sheath and then recovered slightly after the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) turned northward. The IMF started turning southward again due to a large MC field itself, which caused the second storm intensification, reaching a minimum value (Dst = -223 nT). It is found that the first step is caused by a southward IMF component in the sheath (between the upstream shock and the front of the MC), whereas the second step is associated with the passage of the MC. The CME that erupted on 15 March is the sole solar source of the MC. We also discuss the CME/storm event with detailed data from observations (Wind and SOHO) and our algorithm for predicting the intensity of a geomagnetic storm (Dst(min)) from known IP parameter values. We found that choosing the correct Dst(min) estimating formula for predicting the intensity of MC-associated geomagnetic storms is crucial for space weather predictions.

AB The sea state of the Beaufort and Chukchi seas is controlled by the wind forcing and the amount of ice-free water available to generate surface waves. Clear trends in the annual duration of the open water season and in the extent of the seasonal sea ice minimum suggest that the sea state should be increasing, independent of changes in the wind forcing. Wave model hindcasts from four selected years spanning recent conditions are consistent with this expectation. In particular, larger waves are more common in years with less summer sea ice and/or a longer open water season, and peak wave periods are generally longer. The increase in wave energy may affect both the coastal zones and the remaining summer ice pack, as well as delay the autumn ice-edge advance. However, trends in the amount of wave energy impinging on the ice-edge are inconclusive, and the associated processes, especially in the autumn period of new ice formation, have yet to be well-described by in situ observations. There is an implicit trend and evidence for increasing wave energy along the coast of northern Alaska, and this coastal signal is corroborated by satellite altimeter estimates of wave energy.

ID MODELS
AB This paper outlines the development and implementation of large-scale discrete element method (DEM) simulations on graphics processing hardware. These simulations, as well as the topic of general-purpose graphics processing unit (GPGPU) computing, are introduced and discussed. We proceed to cover the general software design choices and architecture used to realize a GPGPU-enabled DEM simulation, driven primarily by the massively parallel nature of this computing technology. Further enhancements to this simulation, namely, a more advanced sliding friction model and a thermal conduction model, are then addressed. This discussion also highlights some of the finer points and issues associated with GPGPU computing, particularly surrounding the issues of parallelization, synchronization, and approximation. Qualitative comparison studies between simple and advanced sliding friction models demonstrate the effectiveness of the friction model. A test problem and an application problem in the area of wind turbine blade icing demonstrate the capabilities of the thermal model. We conclude with remarks regarding the simulations developed, future work needed, and the general suitability of GPGPU architectures for DEM computations.

DT Article
DE simulation metamodeling; tradespace exploration; design of experiments
AB This paper describes an approach that leverages computer simulation models and statistical experimental designs for exploration studies during the early conceptual design of a system. We apply the approach to a naval ship design problem and demonstrate how we can illuminate trade decisions among multiple design decisions and evaluation measures using a dynamic dashboard. After performing experimental designs on a collection of simulation models, we can fit statistical models that act as surrogates to these simulations. These surrogate models allow us to explore a wider variety of system alternatives rather than fixating on a narrow set of alternatives. The purpose of the approach is to simultaneously explore the operational and physical domains using statistical surrogate models in order to illuminate trade decisions between the system's operational effectiveness and physical design considerations.

AB Background Adenovirus is a recognized cause of influenza-like illness (ILI). The proportion of ILI attributable to adenovirus is not known. Moreover, knowledge gaps remain with respect to the epidemiologic, virologic, and clinical characteristics of adenovirus-associated ILI among otherwise healthy individuals.
Methods An observational, longitudinal study of <65-year-old patients with febrile ILI at five medical centers was conducted from 2009 to 2014. Nasopharyngeal specimens obtained at enrollment were first tested by single-reaction PCR for adenovirus, then further evaluated by a multiplex PCR assay for other respiratory viral pathogens. Symptoms over a 28-day period were collected.
Results We enrolled 1536 individuals, among whom 43 (2.8%) were positive for adenovirus. The median age of cases was 3.4 years (range: 4 months to 41 years). Three were hospitalized. Species and serotype information was available for 33 (76.7%) cases. Species C (n = 21) was the most common, followed by B3 (n = 9) and one each of E4a, D46, and A. Species C infections were more frequent in children (P < 0.01). Half of the cases were positive for at least one other respiratory viral pathogen. Symptoms were generally mild and most commonly included cough (90%), fatigue (79%), rhinorrhea (74%), loss of appetite (71%), and sore throat (64%). Children with non-C adenovirus infection were more likely to report sore throat (P = 0.05) and hoarseness (P = 0.06) than those with species C infection.
Conclusions Adenovirus is frequently detected with other respiratory viruses. Persons with non-C adenovirus infections reported more severe symptoms, suggesting there may be species-specific differences in virulence and/or host response to infection.

AB In this study, "within the environment" and "within the contact" in situ tribology techniques are combined in order to study the interfacial processes in lubricated metallic (i.e., aluminum-based) sliding conditions. The evolution of the roughness follows the trend of the coefficient of friction closely, with initially low values followed by higher roughness during steady state. Similarly, the transfer film behavior correlates well with the roughness of the worn surfaces and the subsurface microstructure of the worn surfaces. The effect of normal load on the running-in behavior is also studied in terms of differences in the interfacial processes.

AB A distributed feedback (DFB) fiber laser strain sensor was implemented to measure acoustic emission induced by the hydraulic fracturing process. A study of practical sensor mounting configurations and their characteristics was carried out to find a practical solution. Combining the suitable mounting configuration and ultrahigh strain sensitivity of the DFB fiber laser, the evolution of the hydraulic fracturing process was well monitored. This study shows that fiber lasers can be useful alternatives to piezoelectric sensors in the field of hydraulic fracturing for gas and oil extraction.

AB Multibeam, multicolor, large-angle beam-steering is demonstrated in the visible spectral region by imprinting Fresnel zone plates (FZP) on a liquid crystal spatial light modulator. Spectral dispersion, both diffractive and refractive, is observed but does not prevent the use of this technology for beam steering applications. The experimental results show that while diffractive dispersion dominates over refractive dispersion, wavelength-specific FZPs can be rendered to direct those beams on target, either simultaneously or consecutively. Only a slight correction in the FZP positon is necessary to compensate for refractive dispersion. The position, intensity, and wavelength of each beam can be controlled independently.

AB In this work, we present a new power series solution procedure to obtain induced currents and scattered fields on a large conducting body due to a plane wave incidence. The procedure follows standard method of moments approach yet is applicable to electrically large problems. The first step involves approximating the given structure via standard geometrical discretization and defining the conventional basis functions to approximate the induced current. The next step involves gathering the total number of basis functions into a small number of groups thereby casting the moment matrix into a collection of submatrices representing self and mutual interaction between the groups. Next, the procedure involves eliminating the interaction of two immediate neighbors on any selected group. This process results in a diagonally-dominant moment matrix assuming the group size is sufficiently large. Also the procedure sets the matrix blocks residing on either side of the diagonal block to zero. The new matrix equation can be solved in many ways efficiently. However, this work proposes using power series approach to obtain accurate solution results. The present approach is simple, efficient, highly amenable for parallel processing, and retains all the advantages of conventional method of moments scheme. Several numerical examples are presented to validate the numerical method.

ID FAST RADIO-BURSTS; VARIABILITY
AB Aims. We investigate the nature of the compact and possibly variable nuclear radio source in the centre of WISE J0716-19, the proposed host galaxy of the fast radio burst FRB 150418.
Methods. We observed WISE J0716-19 at 5.0 GHz with the European VLBI Network (EVN) four times between 2016 March 16 and June 2. At three epochs, we simultaneously observed the source with e-MERLIN at the same frequency.
Results. We detected a compact source in the EVN data in each epoch with a significance of up to similar to 8 sigma. The four epochs yielded consistent results within their uncertainties for the peak surface intensity and positions. The mean values for these quantities are I-peak = (115 +/- 9) mu Jy beam(-1) and RA = 07(h)16(m)34.55496(7)(s), Dec = -19 degrees 00'39.4754(8)''. The e-MERLIN data provided similar to 3-5 sigma detections at a position consistent with those of the EVN data. The emission on angular scales intermediate between the EVN and e-MERLIN is consistent with being null. The brightness temperature of the EVN core is T-b greater than or similar to 10(8.5) K, close to the value previously required to explain the short-term radio variability properties of WISE J0716-19 in terms of interstellar scintillation.
Conclusions. Our observations provide direct and independent evidence of a nuclear compact source in WISE J0716-19, a physical scenario without evident connection with FRB 150418. However, the EVN data do not indicate the variability observed with the VLA.

AB We developed a method to enhance compositional mapping from spectral remote sensing through the integration of visible to near infrared (VNIR, similar to 0.4-1 mu m), shortwave infrared (SWIR, similar to 1-2.5 mu m), and longwave infrared (LWIR, similar to 8-13 mu m) data. Spectral information from the individual ranges was first analyzed independently and then the resulting compositional information in the form of image endmembers and apparent abundances was integrated using ISODATA cluster analysis. Independent VNIR, SWIR, and LWIR analyses of a study area near Mountain Pass, California identified image endmembers representing vegetation, manmade materials (e.g., metal, plastic), specific minerals (e.g., calcite, dolomite, hematite, muscovite, gypsum), and general lithology (e.g., sulfate-bearing, carbonate-bearing, and silica-rich units). Integration of these endmembers and their abundances produced a final full-range classification map incorporating much of the variation from all three spectral ranges. The integrated map and its 54 classes provide additional compositional information that is not evident in the VNIR, SWIR, or LWIR data alone, which allows for more complete and accurate compositional mapping. A supplemental examination of hyperspectral LWIR data and comparison with the multispectral LWIR data used in the integration illustrates its potential to further improve this approach.

TI On CT and CSA groups and related ideas
SO JOURNAL OF GROUP THEORY
LA English
DT Article
ID DIOPHANTINE GEOMETRY
AB A group is G commutative transitive or CT if commuting is transitive on non-trivial elements. A group G is CSA or conjugately separated abelian if maximal abelian subgroups are malnormal. These concepts have played a prominent role in the studies of fully residually free groups, limit groups and discriminating groups. They also play a role in the solution to the Tarski problems. CSA always implies CT however the class of CSA groups is a proper subclass of the class of CT groups. For limit groups and finitely generated elementary free groups they are equivalent. In this paper we examine the relationship between the two concepts. In particular, we show that a finite CSA group must be abelian. If G is CT, then we prove that G is not CSA if and only if G contains a nonabelian subgroup G 0 which contains a nontrivial abelian subgroup H that is normal in G(0). For K a field the group PSL (2, K) is never CSA but is CT if char(K) = 2 and for fields K of characteristic 0 where -1 is not a sum of two squares in K. For characteristic p, for an odd prime p, PSL (2, K) is never CT. Infinite CT groups G with a composition series and having no nontrivial normal abelian subgroup must be monolithic with monolith a simple nonabelian CT group. Further if a group G is monolithic with monolith N isomorphic to PSL(2, K) for a field K of characteristic 2 and G is CT, then G congruent to N.

AB Because Aedes aegypti, a vector of dengue, chikungunya, and Zika viruses, exhibits resting and reproductive behaviors that present challenges to control them, pesticide application equipment available for vector control must be evaluated for their ability to control this species in a variety of cryptic environments. Five types of pesticide sprayers, representing 3 spray technologies (1 mister, 2 ultra-low volume [ULV] cold foggers, and 2 ULV thermal foggers), were evaluated for their ability to control adult and immature stages of Ae. aegypti in indoor and outdoor environments. Cages holding adult mosquitoes and larvae were placed in cryptic sites for indoor sprays and placed among dense vegetation for outdoor sprays. Adult and pupal mortality data were recorded following applications of a mixture of synergized pyrethrins and pyriproxyfen. We found that no single sprayer was best suited for controlling Ae. aegypti in indoor and outdoor environments, nor was one best for controlling adult and immature mosquitoes. Sprayers producing larger droplets (misters and cold foggers) were more effective in controlling immature mosquitoes indoors and outdoors. Thermal fogging was more effective in controlling adults indoors, whereas cold fogs and misters were more effective for outdoor control.

AB A 23-year-old woman at 41 weeks and 6 days estimated gestational age underwent continuous spinal analgesia for labor after a recognized, unintended dural puncture. Excellent analgesia was maintained throughout labor and vaginal delivery, the intrathecal catheter was left in situ for 24 hours postpartum, and the catheter was subsequently removed without apparent complication. On physical examination during her anesthesia postoperative visit, clear fluid was noted to be slowly draining from the catheter insertion site. Although she denied all symptoms associated with a dural puncture, including headache, a cerebrospinal fluid-cutaneous fistula was diagnosed. An epidural blood patch was placed, which terminated the cerebrospinal fluid leak. No long-term complications were evident. Subsequent literature review revealed a rare incidence of this type of complication and varied recommendations for intervention and optimal management. We review the literature with regard to this complication and offer discussion regarding the various suggested means of diagnosis and therapy.

AB This paper reports an experiment that studies the emission characteristics of small number of field emitters. The experiment consists of nine carbon fibers in a square configuration. Experimental results show that the emission characteristics depend strongly on the separation between each emitter, providing evidence of the electric field screening effects. Our results indicate that as the separation between the emitters decreases, the emission current for a given voltage also decreases. The authors compare the experimental results to four carbon fiber emitters in a linear and square configurations as well as to two carbon fiber emitters in a paired array. Voltage-current traces show that the turn-on voltage is always larger for the nine carbon fiber emitters as compared to the two and four emitters in linear configurations, and approximately identical to the four emitters in a square configuration. The observations and analysis reported here, based on Fowler-Nordheim field emission theory, suggest the electric field screening effect depends critically on the number of emitters, the separation between them, and their overall geometric configuration.

AB We study cluster synchronization in networks with symmetries in the presence of small generic parametric mismatches of two different types: mismatches affecting the dynamics of the individual uncoupled systems and mismatches affecting the network couplings. We perform a stability analysis of the nearly synchronous cluster synchronization solution and reduce the stability problem to a low-dimensional form. We also show how under certain conditions the low dimensional analysis can be used to predict the overall synchronization error, i.e., how close the individual nearly synchronous trajectories are to each other.

AB Nickel-iron oxides and oxyhydroxides are among the most active oxygen-evolution reaction (OER) catalysts in alkaline electrolytes. Compositions rich in Ni are reported to show superior activity, but the establishment of competitive OER activity with lower cost, Fe-rich analogues is more desirable for metal-air batteries and other devices that will see large-scale production. Herein, we demonstrate that by controlling pore-solid architecture and the degree of crystallinity, we achieve a single-phase, Fe-rich NiFe(2)Ox catalyst that matches the OER performance metrics previously demonstrated for compositions with higher Ni-to-Fe ratios. We also show that OER activity linearly tracks increases in the catalyst surface area, whereas the degree of exsitu surface hydroxylation does not play a significant role. To prepare the pore-solid structured forms, NiFe(2)Ox gels were synthesized by using an epoxide-initiated sol-gel method and subsequently processed to aerogels or xerogels. The activities of these two sol-gel-derived nanostructures were compared with a nanoparticulate analogue with lower specific surface area, prepared by using conventional precipitation methods. The higher surface area and larger pore volume expressed by the NiFe(2)Ox formed as an aerogel result in a performance-competitive OER overpotential of 356mV at a current density of 10mAcm(-2), with an approximately 140mV improvement relative to the low-surface-area, precipitated analogue.

AB The discovery by the Large Area Telescope on board Fermi of variable -ray emission from radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies revealed the presence of a possible third class of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) with relativistic jets in addition to blazars and radio galaxies. Considering that NLSy1 are usually hosted in spiral galaxies, this finding poses intriguing questions about the nature of these objects and the formation of relativistic jets. We report on a systematic investigation of the -ray properties of a sample of radio-loud NLSy1, including the detection of new objects, using 7 years of Fermi-LAT data with the new Pass 8 event-level analysis. In addition we discuss the radio-to-very-high-energy properties of the -ray emitting NLSy1, their host galaxy, and black hole mass in the context of the blazar scenario and the unification of relativistic jets at different scales.

DE galaxies: active; gamma-rays: general; radiation mechanisms: non-thermal
AB High redshift blazars are among the most powerful objects in the Universe. Although they represent a significant fraction of the extragalactic hard X-ray sky, they are not commonly detected in gamma-rays. High redshift (z > 2) objects represent < 10 per cent of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) population observed by Fermi so far, and gamma-ray flaring activity from these sources is even more uncommon. The characterization of the radio-to-gamma-ray properties of high redshift blazars represents a powerful tool for the study of the energetics of such extreme objects and the Extragalactic Background Light. This contribution will present results of multi-band campaigns, from radio to gamma-rays, on PKS 0836 + 710, PKS 2149 306, and TXS 0536 + 145. The latter is the highest redshift detection of a flaring gamma-ray blazar so far. At the peaks of their respective flares these sources reached an apparent isotropic gamma-ray luminosity of about 10(50) erg.s(-1), which is comparable with the luminosity observed from the most powerful blazars. The physical properties derived from the multi-wavelength observations of these sources are then compared with those shown by the high redshift population.

AB Measurements show that plasmasphere refilling rates decrease with increasing solar activity, while paradoxically, the vertical integration of the plasmasphere electron density (pTEC) increases with increasing solar activity. Using the Naval Research Laboratory SAMI2 (Sami2 is Another Model of the Ionosphere) and SAMI3 (Sami3 is Also a Model of the Ionosphere) codes, we simulate plasmasphere refilling following a model storm, reproducing this observed phenomenon. In doing so, we find that the refilling rate and resulting pTEC values are sensitive to the oxygen profile in the thermosphere and exosphere: the supply of H+ in the topside ionosphere is limited by the local O+ density, through H+O+H++O charge exchange. At solar minimum, the O+ supply simply increases with the O density in the exosphere. At solar maximum, we find that O-O+ collisions limit the O+ density in the topside ionosphere such that it decreases with increasing O density. The paradox occurs because the pTEC metric gives electrons in the topside ionosphere more weight than electrons in the plasmasphere.

AB This paper summarizes recent progress in developing a method for characterizing the daytime ionosphere from limb profile measurements of the OII 83.4nm emission. This extreme ultraviolet emission is created by solar photoionization of atomic oxygen in the lower thermosphere and is resonantly scattered by O+ in the ionosphere. The brightness and shape of the measured altitude profile thus depend on both the photoionization source in the lower thermosphere and the ionospheric densities that determine the resonant scattering contribution. This technique has greatly matured over the past decade due to measurements by the series of Naval Research Laboratory Special Sensor Ultraviolet Limb Imager (SSULI) instruments flown on Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) missions and the Remote Atmospheric and Ionospheric Detection System (RAIDS) on the International Space Station. The volume of data from these missions has enabled a better approach to handling specific biases and uncertainties in both the measurement and retrieval process that affect the accuracy of the result. This paper identifies the key measurement and data quality factors that will enable the continued evolution of this technique into an advanced method for characterization of the daytime ionosphere.

AB Electrically assisted deformation (EAD) is an emerging technique to enhance formability of metals by applying an electric current through them. Despite its increasing importance in manufacturing applications, there is still an unresolved debate on the nature of the fundamental deformation mechanisms underlying EAD, mainly between electroplasticity (non-thermal effects) and resistive heating (thermal effects). This status is due to two critical challenges: (1) a lack of experimental techniques to directly observe fundamental mechanisms of material deformation during EAD, and (2) intrinsic coupling between electric current and Joule heating giving rise to unwanted thermally activated mechanisms. To overcome these challenges, we have developed a microdevice-based electromechanical testing system (MEMTS) to characterize nanoscale metal specimens in transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Our studies reveal that MEMTS eliminates the effect of Joule heating on material deformation, a critical advantage over macroscopic experiments, owing to its unique scale. For example, a negligible change in temperature (<0.02 degrees C) is predicted at similar to 3500 A/mm(2). Utilizing the attractive features of MEMTS, we have directly investigated potential electron-dislocation interactions in single crystal copper (SCC) specimens that are simultaneously subjected to uniaxial loading and electric current density up to 5000 A/mm(2). Our in situ TEM studies indicate that for SCC, electroplasticity does not play a key role as no differences in dislocation activities, such as depinning and movement, are observed.

AB The Poisson structure of intrinsic time gravity is analysed. With the starting point comprising a unimodular three-metric with traceless momentum, a trace-induced anomaly results upon quantization. This leads to a revision of the choice of momentum variable to the (mixed index) traceless momentric. This latter choice unitarily implements the fundamental commutation relations, which now take on the form of an affine algebra with SU(3) Lie algebra amongst the momentric variables. The resulting relations unitarily implement tracelessness upon quantization. The associated Poisson brackets and Hamiltonian dynamics are studied.

DE Fertility; migration; subsidy; difference-in-differences

AB This study examines the effects of a fertility subsidy that was instituted in specific regions in Korea in 2004. The value of the subsidy ranged from $ 4000 to $ 9000 (2004 US$) depending on the area of residence. Using a difference-in-differences estimation strategy, we measure the effects of the policy on childbearing and migration in and out of the subsidized areas. Our estimates for migration suggest that the policy significantly increased the net inflow of females into the subsidized areas. This effect is driven roughly equally by a decrease in the outflow from and an increase into the subsidized areas. Our estimated effects on fertility are in line with previous results from the literature; we find that a $ 1000 increase in fertility subsidies leads to a 0.108% increase in the chance of bearing a child for all age groups (21 to 45). Our results show that the policy increased total births in 2005 by 11,000 and that the vast majority of this increase was from the 21 to 33 cohort.

AB Surrogate fuel mixtures for a hydrodepolymerized cellulosic diesel (HDCD) fuel were formulated based on HDCD's physical properties and chemical composition. HDCD was found to contain alicylic, cyclic, and aromatic compounds. Surrogate mixtures composed of trans-decahydronaphthalene (trans-decalin) and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene (tetralin) matched HDCD's speed of sound, density, and bulk modulus. Diesel engine experiments were conducted on mixtures containing petroleum diesel fuel (60 and 80% volume fraction) mixed with HDCD, tetralin, trans-decalin, or a mixture with 0.42 mass fraction of tetralin in trans-decalin. At both volume fractions, the start-up performance of the two-component surrogate/petroleum fuel mixtures matched that of HDCD/petroleum mixtures. The trans-decalin/petroleum fuel mixtures started faster while the tetralin/petroleum fuel mixtures started more slowly than those containing HDCD. These results show that speed of sound, density, and bulk modulus can be used as metrics to design surrogate fuel mixtures that match fuel start-up performance in diesel engines.

AB A new class of adaptive Wilkinson-type filtering power divider that simultaneously exhibits single/multi-band operation, frequency tuning, and controllable number of passbands is reported. It exploits the incorporation of single/multi-band quasi-bandpass sections into the input/output terminals of the power divider, whose quarter-wavelength-long transmission-line segments are reused as impedance inverters between the quasi-bandpass stages. In this manner, bandpass-type transfer functions are realized at the output nodes along with the power-distribution functionality. For experimental validation, a reconfigurable dual-band prototype that features tunable passbands in the range 0.8-1.2 GHz is designed, manufactured, and tested.

AB A frequency-selective limiter that uses a linear-phase, contiguous-channel double multiplexer topology and RF-power-dependent coupling structures is shown in this paper. Frequency-selective limiting is achieved without the use of magnetic materials, nonreciprocal components, or parametric circuits. An L-band prototype with six contiguous 50-MHz-bandwidth channels was fabricated. Under measured low-power excitation, the limiter has a flat, composite passband with a 300-MHz-bandwidth and 1.6-1.9 dB insertion loss. The measured group delay is 16 +/- 0.7 ns across the passband and does not have peaks at channel crossover frequencies. Limiting by 11.4 dB to over 22 dB occurs independently in any channel that experiences high-power excitation without disturbing adjacent channel bands. The measured limiting threshold is tunable from 16 to 33 dBm and can be designed to be tunable over other power ranges easily.

AB The transparent coexistence (TC) paradigm allows simultaneous activation of the secondary users with the primary users as long as their interference to the primary users can be properly canceled. This paradigm has the potential to offer much more efficient spectrum sharing than the traditional interweave paradigm. In this paper, we design a distributed algorithm to achieve this paradigm for a secondary multi-hop network. For interference cancelation (IC), we employ MIMO at secondary nodes. We present a distributed iterative algorithm to maximize each secondary session's throughput while meeting all IC requirements under TC. By maintaining two local sets for each node, we can keep track of the node's IC responsibility. Although no explicit node ordering is maintained in our distributed algorithm, we prove that our distributed data structure at each node (with the use of two local sets) can be mapped to an explicit global node ordering for IC among all nodes in the network. This guarantees that each active node's degree-of-freedoms allocated for IC is feasible at the physical layer. Our algorithm is iterative in nature and all steps can be accomplished based on local information exchange among the neighboring nodes. We present the simulation results to show that the performance of our distributed algorithm is highly competitive when compared with an upper bound solution from the corresponding centralized problem.

TI Maximizing Net Power in Circular Turns for Solar and Autonomous Soaring
Aircraft
SO JOURNAL OF AIRCRAFT
LA English
DT Article
AB This study investigates maximizing net power input from a solar-photovoltaic array and/or a thermal updraft while performing constant bank angle, circular flight-path turns (that is, an orbit). The process inputs are the aircraft sink polar (or, equivalently, the power required curve), the date, the time, the location, and the flight altitude. A solar insolation model is combined with a best-turn performance calculation to determine the bank angle that maximizes power input from a solar-photovoltaic array at varying sun elevation angles. In general, for low sun elevation angles, the maximum net power gain from solar input and drag output is found at higher bank angles and shows 15% (absolute) gain over the limiting case of wings-level orbits in the same conditions. For high sun elevation angles, the maximum net power is found at low bank angles. The break point between high and low sun elevation angles varies with aircraft parameters and is approximately 25deg for the example aircraft in this paper. The relative power losses of off-optimum orbits at a given bank angle are quantified. Finally, a thermal-updraft model is included in the net power calculations to determine an optimal bank angle that maximizes the average power input from a combination of solar photovoltaics and thermal updrafts. This paper shows that soaring and solar photovoltaics can be mutually beneficial, and it provides a method to calculate losses at off-optimum conditions.

AB The retreating blade of a high-advance-ratio rotor encounters a wide range of Reynolds numbers when passing through the reverse flow region. The present work was aimed at providing an improved understanding of Reynolds number effects in both forward and reverse flow. Time-averaged sectional airloads and surface oil flow visualizations were obtained experimentally for four airfoil cross sections at Reynolds numbers between 3.3x10(5) and 1.0x10(6). Two airfoils with a sharp geometric trailing edge (a NACA 0012 and a NACA 0024) and two airfoils with a blunt geometric trailing edge (a 24% thick elliptical airfoil and a 26% thick cambered ellipse airfoil) were tested. This work shows that the airloads for a NACA 0012 in reverse flow are insensitive to Reynolds number due to early flow separation, because it acts as a thin airfoil due to the sharp aerodynamic leading edge. The airloads of thicker airfoils were found to be more sensitive to Reynolds number. In reverse flow, the NACA 0024 exhibits a decrease in the magnitude of the airloads with increasing Reynolds number for -3 <= -alpha(rev) <= 15 deg. The lift curve of an elliptical airfoil becomes more linear with increasing Reynolds number. The character of the lift curve for the cambered ellipse airfoil changes drastically for Re >= 3.3 x 10(5) in both forward and reverse flow. These results provide insight for the design of high-speed helicopter rotor blades by examining the sensitivity of airloads to the range of Reynolds numbers encountered in the reverse flow region.

AB Particle image velocimetry (PIV) provides a field of discrete vectors to represent a continuum velocity field. Various methods have been adopted to evaluate the integrity of the discrete vectors. In contrast, the present communication provides a systematic technique whereby the integrity of the measured field can be assessed using basic topological principles. Starting with the recognition that PIV provides a vector field overlaid on a planar surface, the analyst can identify the holes (to be punched through the surface of a sphere) and the handles (to be added to the sphere's surface) that will represent the appropriate surface for the topological analysis. These operations define the a priori Euler characteristic (chi(A)) for the subject PIV image. The experimental Euler characteristic (chi(E)) will be known from the properties of the measured vector field: nodes, saddles, etc. A necessary condition for the integrity of the measured vector field is chi(E) = chi(A). The topological bases for the integrity evaluation, including the important constraint of ensuring a smooth collapsed sphere, are carefully explained and described with examples.

AB A first observationally based estimation of departures from gradient wind balance during secondary eyewall formation is presented. The study is based on the Atlantic Hurricane Edouard (2014). This storm was observed during the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Hurricane and Severe Storm Sentinel (HS3) experiment, a field campaign conducted in collaboration with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). A total of 135 dropsondes are analyzed in two separate time periods: one named the secondary eyewall formation period and the other one referred to as the decaying double eyewalled storm period. During the secondary eyewall formation period, a time when the storm was observed to have only one eyewall, the diagnosed agradient force has a secondary maximum that coincides with the radial location of the secondary eyewall observed in the second period of study. The maximum spinup tendency of the radial influx of absolute vertical vorticity is within the boundary layer in the region of the eyewall of the storm and the spinup tendency structure elongates radially outward into the secondary region of supergradient wind, where the secondary wind maximum is observed in the second period of study. An analysis of the boundary layer averaged vertical structure of equivalent potential temperature reveals a conditionally unstable environment in the secondary eyewall formation region. These findings support the hypothesis that deep convective activity in this region contributed to spinup of the boundary layer tangential winds and the formation of a secondary eyewall that is observed during the decaying double eyewalled storm period.

TI Split Hopkinson bar measurement using high-speed full-spectrum fiber
Bragg grating interrogation
SO APPLIED OPTICS
LA English
DT Article
ID SENSORS
AB The development and validation of a high-speed, full-spectrum measurement technique is described for fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. A FBG is surface-mounted to a split-Hopkinson tensile bar specimen to induce high strain rates. The high strain gradients and large strains that indicate material failure are analyzed under high strain rates up to 500 s(-1). The FBG is interrogated using a high-speed full-spectrum solid-state interrogator with a repetition rate of 100 kHz. The captured deformed spectra are analyzed for strain gradients using a default interior point algorithm in combination with the modified transfer matrix approach. This paper shows that by using high-speed full-spectrum interrogation of an FBG and the modified transfer matrix method, highly localized strain gradients and discontinuities can be measured without a direct line of sight.

AB We present spectroscopic and interferometric measurements for a sample of nine K giant stars. These targets are of particular interest because they are slated for stellar oscillation observations. Our improved parameters will directly translate into reduced errors in the final masses for these stars when interferometric radii and asteroseismic densities are combined. Here, we determine each star's limb-darkened angular diameter, physical radius, luminosity, bolometric flux, effective temperature, surface gravity, metallicity, and mass. When we compare our interferometric and spectroscopic results, we find no systematic offsets in the diameters and the values generally agree within the errors. Our interferometric temperatures for seven of the nine stars are hotter than those determined from spectroscopy with an average difference of about 380 K.

AB We consider Bayesian linear inverse problems in infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert spaces, with a Gaussian prior measure and additive Gaussian noise model, and provide an extension of the concept of Bayesian D-optimality to the infinite-dimensional case. To this end, we derive the infinite-dimensional version of the expression for the Kullback-Leibler divergence from the posterior measure to the prior measure, which is subsequently used to derive the expression for the expected information gain. We also study the notion of Bayesian A-optimality in the infinite-dimensional setting, and extend the well known (in the finite-dimensional case) equivalence of the Bayes risk of the MAP estimator with the trace of the posterior covariance, for the Gaussian linear case, to the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space case.

ID NITROGEN AGGREGATION; SYNTHETIC DIAMONDS
AB The paper reports data on the linear growth rates of synthetic diamond single crystals grown at high P-T parameters by the temperature-gradient technique in the Fe-Ni-C system. Techniques of stepwise temperature changes and generation of growth microzoning were applied to evaluate the growth rates of various octahedral and cubic growth sectors and variations in these rates with growth time. The maximum linear growth rates of the order of 100-300 A mu m/h were detected at the initial activation of crystal growth, after which the growth rates nonlinearly decreased throughout the whole growth time to 5-20 A mu m/h. The fact that the linear growth rates can broadly vary indicates that the inner structure and growth dynamics of single diamond crystals grown by the temperature-gradient technique should be taken into account when applied in mineral-geochemical studies (capture of inclusions, accommodation of admixture components, changes of the defective structure, etc.).

ID PARABOLIC EQUATION
AB The accuracy of the seismo-acoustic parabolic equation is tested for problems involving sloping solid-solid interfaces and variable topography. The approach involves approximating the medium in terms of a series of range-independent regions, using a parabolic wave equation to propagate the field through each region, and applying a single-scattering approximation to obtain transmitted fields across the vertical interfaces between regions. The accuracy of the parabolic equation method for range-dependent problems in seismo-acoustics was previously tested in the small slope limit. It is tested here for problems involving larger slopes using a finite-element model to generate reference solutions.

We show how standard experimental interventions linking financial consequences to falsifiable religious statements can elicit and characterize beliefs. We implemented this approach with members of a group that expected the "End of the World" to occur on May 21, 2011 by varying monetary prizes payable before and after May 21st. To our knowledge, this is the first incentivized elicitation of religious beliefs ever conducted. The results suggest that the members held extreme, sincere beliefs that were unresponsive to experimental manipulations in price. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

We describe the phenomenon of sensemaking in blogging and identify triggers, mechanisms, and introspective focus of cultural sensemaking in newcomers' blogs. Our study contributes to research on intercultural learning by supporting the argument that blogs are a promising site for intercultural studies. We also extend this discussion by demonstrating that sensemaking in and through blogging is an important phenomenon deserving study as a research subject and showing that (1) newcomers use blogs to make sense of discrepancies triggered by experiences, observation of patterns and temporal milestones, (2) newcomers make sense through self-debating, making comparisons to the home country, sequencing, and reflecting on information-gathering, and (3) bloggers focus introspection during sensemaking on their thoughts and emotions, (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Previous studies indicate that equatorial zonal winds in the Indian Ocean can significantly influence the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF). During the Cooperative Indian Ocean Experiment on Intraseasonal Variability (CINDY)/Dynamics of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (DYNAMO) field campaign, two strong MJO events were observed within a month without a clear suppressed phase between them, and these events generated exceptionally strong ocean responses. Strong eastward currents along the equator in the Indian Ocean lasted more than one month from late November 2011 to early January 2012. The influence of these unique MJO events during the field campaign on ITF variability is investigated using a high-resolution (1/25 degrees) global ocean general circulation model, the Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM). The strong westerlies associated with these MJO events, which exceed 10 m s(-1), generate strong equatorial eastward jets and downwelling near the eastern boundary. The equatorial jets are realistically simulated by the global HYCOM based on the comparison with the data collected during the field campaign. The analysis demonstrates that sea surface height (SSH) and alongshore velocity anomalies at the eastern boundary propagate along the coast of Sumatra and Java as coastal Kelvin waves, significantly reducing the ITF transport at the Makassar Strait during January-early February. The alongshore velocity anomalies associated with the Kelvin wave significantly leads SSH anomalies. The magnitude of the anomalous currents at the Makassar Strait is exceptionally large because of the unique feature of the MJO events, and thus the typical seasonal cycle of ITF could be significantly altered by strong MJO events such as those observed during the CINDY/DYNAMO field campaign.

AB We develop a tractable incomplete-markets model with an earnings process Y subject to permanent shocks and borrowing constraints. Financial frictions cause the marginal (certainty equivalent) value of wealth W to be greater than unity and decrease with liquidity w = W/Y. Additionally, financial frictions cause consumption to decrease with this endogenously determined marginal value of liquidity. Risk aversion and the elasticity of inter-temporal substitution play very different roles on consumption and the dispersion of w. Permanent earnings shocks, especially large discrete stochastic jumps, make consumption smoothing quantitatively difficult to achieve. Borrowing constraints and permanent discrete jump shocks can generate empirically plausible values for marginal propensities to consume in the range of 0.2 to 0.6. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc.

AB Objectives/HypothesisTo determine if sleepiness and sleep study variables (e.g., Apnea-Hypopnea Index [AHI] and lowest oxygen saturation) improve following isolated tonsillectomy for adult obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Study DesignSystematic review and meta-analysis.
MethodsNine databases (PubMed/MEDLINE included) were searched through November 24, 2015.
ResultsSeventeen studies (n = 216 patients, 34.4 10.0 years and body mass index: 29.0 +/- 6.1 kg/m(2)) met criteria. Tonsils sizes were hypertrophied, large, enlarged, extremely enlarged, or grades 2 to 4. Apnea-Hypopnea Index decreased by 65.2% (from 40.5 +/- 28.9/hour to 14.1 +/- 17.1/hour) (n = 203). The AHI mean difference (MD) was -30.2 per hour (95% confidence interval [CI] -39.3, -21.1) (P value < 0.00001). The AHI SMD was -1.37 (-1.65, -1.09) (large effect). Lowest oxygen saturation improved from 77.7 +/- 11.9% to 85.5 +/- 8.2% (n = 186). Lowest oxygen saturation MD was 8.5% (95% CI 5.2, 11.8) (P value < 0.00001). The Epworth Sleepiness Scale decreased from 11.6 +/- 3.7 to 6.1 +/- 3.9 (P value < 0.00001) (n = 125). Individual patient outcomes (n = 54) demonstrated an 85.2% success rate (AHI < 20/hour and 50% reduction) and a 57.4% cure rate. Individual patient data meta-analysis showed preoperative AHI < 30 per hour to be a significant predictor of surgical success (P value < 0.001) and cure (P value = 0.043); among patients with preoperative AHI < 30 per hour, tonsillectomy success rate was 100% (25 of 25) and cure rate was 84% (21 of 25) with a mean postoperative AHI of 2.4 +/- 2.1 per hour; this compares to tonsillectomy success rate of 72.4% (21 of 29), cure rate of 10 of 29 (34.4%), and mean postoperative AHI of 14.3 +/- 13.9 per hour for patients with preoperative AHI 30 per hour.
ConclusionIsolated tonsillectomy can be successful as treatment for adult OSA, especially among patients with large tonsils and mild to moderate OSA (AHI < 30/hour). Laryngoscope, 2016 Laryngoscope, 126:2176-2186, 2016

AB Predetermination of background error covariance matrix B is challenging in existing ocean data assimilation schemes such as the optimal interpolation (OI). An optimal spectral decomposition (OSD) has been developed to overcome such difficulty without using the B matrix. The basis functions are eigenvectors of the horizontal Laplacian operator, pre-calculated on the base of ocean topography, and independent on any observational data and background fields. Minimization of analysis error variance is achieved by optimal selection of the spectral coefficients. Optimal mode truncation is dependent on the observational data and observational error variance and determined using the steep-descending method. Analytical 2D fields of large and small mesoscale eddies with white Gaussian noises inside a domain with four rigid and curved boundaries are used to demonstrate the capability of the OSD method. The overall error reduction using the OSD is evident in comparison to the OI scheme. Synoptic monthly gridded world ocean temperature, salinity, and absolute geostrophic velocity datasets produced with the OSD method and quality controlled by the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) are also presented.

AB A frictionless cart in the shape of a right triangle (with the vertical side forward) is elastically impacted by vertically falling raindrops. The speed of the cart as a function of time can be analytically deduced as an exercise in the use of trigonometric and hyperbolic functions. A characteristic time defines the approach to a terminal speed which is a sizeable fraction of the speed of the rain. The treatment is accessible to a student in a calculus-based mechanics course.

AB Building on existing techniques for satellite remote sensing of fires, this paper takes advantage of the day-night band (DNB) aboard the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) to develop the Firelight Detection Algorithm (FILDA), which characterizes fire pixels based on both visible-light and infrared (IR) signatures at night. By adjusting fire pixel selection criteria to include visible-light signatures, FILDA allows for significantly improved detection of pixels with smaller and/or cooler subpixel hotspots than the operational Interface Data Processing System (IDPS) algorithm. VIIRS scenes with near-coincident Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection (ASTER) overpasses are examined after applying the operational VIIRS fire product algorithm and including a modified "candidate fire pixel selection" approach from FILDA that lowers the 4-mu m brightness temperature (BT) threshold but includes a minimum DNB radiance. FILDA is shown to be effective in detecting gas flares and characterizing fire lines during large forest fires (such as the Rim Fire in California and High Park fire in Colorado). Compared with the operational VIIRS fire algorithm for the study period, FILDA shows a large increase (up to 90%) in the number of detected fire pixels that can be verified with the finer resolution ASTER data (90 m). Part (30%) of this increase is likely due to a combined use of DNB and lower 4-mu m BT thresholds for fire detection in FILDA. Although further studies are needed, quantitative use of the DNB to improve fire detection could lead to reduced response times to wildfires and better estimate of fire characteristics (smoldering and flaming) at night.

AB Despite increasing use of pigs as surrogates for humans in inhalation studies, measurements of particle deposition in the lungs of pigs are lacking. No comprehensive models are available for deposition of inhaled particles in the lungs of pigs to bridge the gap between exposure and biological response. In this study, a mathematical model was developed for the deposition of particles in the respiratory tract of pigs. Semi-empirical equations were developed to relate particle deposition efficiency in the pig nasal passages to non-dimensional parameters for diffusion and impaction deposition. The conducting airway tree of pigs was reconstructed from scanned images and other morphometric data in the literature. The pulmonary airway region was reconstructed assuming geometric similarities between humans and pigs due to a lack of information available on the pulmonary airways of pigs. The tracheobronchial and alveolar trees were combined to obtain a limited-monopodial lung geometry for pigs. A lung ventilation model was developed in this geometry based on lung compliance, airway resistance, and airflow inertance using breathing parameters from the literature. The lung deposition model was constructed based on models for lung ventilation, particle transport, and deposition in the asymmetric (monopodial) lung structure to predict particle deposition in the lungs of pigs. Model predictions indicated that the largest airflow and particle deposition occurred in the basal (diaphragmatic) lobes, which possessed the largest airway dimensions and volumes. The predicted site of deposition was related to particle size with larger particles depositing proximally and smaller particles depositing distally. There was limited penetration of coarse particles into the alveolar region because most of these particles were removed from inhaled air in the nasal and tracheobronchial regions. The deposition model developed in this study is a powerful tool to relate exposure environment to biological response and assess the dose of the delivered particles to the lungs.

A comprehensive dynamic analysis is hence needed to be carried out for capturing dangerous behaviors observed repeatedly in practice. Using some powerful tools of nonlinear dynamic analysis including Lyapunov exponents and Poincare map, a comprehensive stability map is provided in order to determine the safe operational domain of the network in addition to characterizing the responses obtained. Coupled chaotic and hyperchaotic dynamics of two coupled solenoid-actuated butterfly valves are captured by running the network for some critical values through interconnected flow loads affected by the coupled actuators' variables. The significant effect of an unstable configuration of the valve-actuator on another set is thoroughly investigated to discuss the expected stability issues of a remote set due to others and vice versa.

Long Thin Circular Cylinders
SO JOURNAL OF FLUIDS ENGINEERING-TRANSACTIONS OF THE ASME

AB Experimental observations of towed sonar arrays as characterized by long thin circular cylinders indicate transverse motions that are clearly identified by low-amplitudes, low-wavelengths, and low-frequencies. Although the cylinder length (L) to radius (a) is commonly large [L/a = O(10(3))] with high Reynolds numbers [O(10(4))], the corresponding length scale involving the average skin friction [CfL/a = O(10)] remains within the many experimental determinations of short to moderate length cylinders that experience oscillatory instabilities. Prior to the present investigation, any detrimental effects of these oscillatory instabilities on the thin cylinder flow physics that serve construction of the respective semi-empirical and semi-analytical models remained chiefly unknown. Herein, we began examining those turbulent statistics via fine-scale numerical simulations to critique the pragmatic adequacy of the representative design models. We were concerned in particular about the streamwise effects on the turbulent boundary layer (TBL), skin friction and wall pressure evolutions as well as the radial distributions of the leading normal and shear Reynolds stresses. Fortunately, no major deviations (within 10%) were discovered in the TBL statistics over a characteristic range of Reynolds numbers and TBL thicknesses as compared to the axisymmetric state. However, acute spikes (both subharmonics and harmonics) were detected in the wall pressure autospectra similar to that suspected in the towed cylinder experiments, which were conducted in large tow tanks and lake-type basins. These spikes are of paramount importance and should be explored further because they may lead to signal-to-noise ratios above acceptable limits.

AB Hydrogen was intentionally introduced into ultra-high strength steel by cadmium plating. The purpose was to examine the effect of cadmium plate thickness and hence hydrogen on the impact energy of the steel. The AISI 4340 steel was austenitized at 1000 A degrees C for 1 h, water quenched, and tempered at temperatures between 257 and 593 A degrees C in order to achieve a range of targeted strength levels. The specimens were cadmium plated with 0.00508 mm (0.2 mils), 0.00762 mm (0.3 mils), and 0.0127 mm (0.5 mils). Results demonstrated that the uncharged specimens exhibited higher impact energy values when compared to the plated specimens at all tempering temperatures. The cadmium-plated specimens had very low Charpy impact values irrespective of their ultimate tensile strength values. The model of hydrogen transport by mobile dislocations to the fracture site appears to provide the most suitable explanation of the results.

AB Temperature histories of structural steel deep-penetration welds are presented, which are calculated using numerical-analytical basis functions and solidification-boundary constraints. These weld temperature histories can be adopted as input data to various types of computational procedures, which include numerical models for prediction of solid-state phase transformations and mechanical response. In addition, these temperature histories can be used parametrically for inverse thermal analysis of welds corresponding to other welding processes whose process conditions are within similar regimes. The present study applies an inverse thermal analysis procedure that uses three-dimensional constraint conditions whose two-dimensional projections are mapped within transverse cross sections of experimentally measured solidification boundaries. In addition, the present study uses experimentally measured estimates of the heat effect zone edge to examine the consistency of calculated temperature histories for steel welds.

AB Background About 50% of Americans and 60% to 70% of US military personnel use dietary supplements, some of which have been associated with adverse events (AEs). Nutritional supplements like sport drinks and sport bars/gels are also commonly used by athletes and service members. Previous dietary supplement and nutritional supplement surveys were conducted on Army, Air Force, and Coast Guard personnel.
Objective The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate dietary and nutritional supplement use in Navy and Marine Corps personnel, including the prevalence, types, factors associated with use, and AEs.
Design A random sample of 10,000 Navy and Marine Corps personnel were contacted. Service members were asked to complete a detailed questionnaire describing their personal characteristics, supplement use, and AEs experienced.
Results In total, 1,708 service members completed the questionnaire during August through December 2014, with 1,683 used for analysis. Overall, 73% reported using dietary supplements one or more times per week. The most commonly used dietary supplements (used one or more times per week) were multivitamins/multiminerals (48%), protein/amino acids (34%), combination products (33%), and individual vitamins and minerals (29%). About 31% of service members reported using five or more dietary supplements. Sport drinks and sport bars/gels were used by 45% and 23% of service members, respectively. Monthly expenditures on dietary supplements averaged $39; 31% of service members spent >=$50/mo. Multivariate logistic regression modeling indicated that female sex (women/men; odds ratio [OR]=1.76, 95% CI 1.32 to 2.36), higher educational level (college degree/no college degree; OR=2.23, 95% CI 1.62 to 3.30), higher body mass index (calculated as kg/m(2)) (>= 30/<25; OR=1.67, 95% CI 1.06 to 2.63), and a greater amount of resistance training (>= 271/0 to 45 min/week; OR=2.85, 95% CI 1.94 to 4.17) were associated with dietary supplement use. Twenty-two percent of dietary supplement users and 6% of nutritional supplement users reported one or more AEs. For combination products alone, 29% of users reported one or more AEs.
Conclusions The prevalence of dietary supplement use in Navy and Marine Corps personnel was considerably higher than reported in civilian investigations for almost all types of dietary supplements, although similar to most other military services. Factors associated with dietary supplement use were similar to those reported in previous military and civilian investigations. Prevalence of self-reported AEs was very high, especially for combination products.

AB Background and Objective: The Affordable Care Act enacted significant Medicare payment reductions to providers, yet long-term effects of such major reductions on patient outcomes remain uncertain. Using the 1997 Balanced Budget Act (BBA) as an experiment, we compare long-run trends in 30-day readmission across hospitals with different amount of payment cuts.
Research Design, Subjects, and Measures: Using 100% Medicare claims between 1995 and 2011 and instrumental variable hospital fixed-effects regression models, we compared changes in 30-day readmission trends for 5 leading Medicare conditions between urban hospitals facing small, moderate, and large BBA payment reductions across 4 periods [1995-1997 (pre-BBA period), 1998-2000, 2001-2005, 2006-2001]. Patient sample includes Medicare patients who were admitted to general, acute, urban, short-stay hospitals in the United States 1995-2011. Sample size ranges from 1.4 million patients for acute myocardial infarction to 3 million for pneumonia.
Results: We found that 30-day readmission trends diverged post-BBA (2001-2005) between hospitals facing small and large payment cuts, where large-cut hospitals experience slower improvement in readmission rates relative to small-cut hospitals. The gap between small-cut and large-cut hospitals readmission trend was 6% for acute myocardial infarction, 4% for congestive heart failure and pneumonia (all P < 0.01) in the 2001-2005 period. The gaps between hospitals were eliminated by the 2006-2011 period as the effect of BBA naturally dissipated over time.
Conclusions: Although payment-cut differences are associated with widening gaps in readmission rates across hospitals, the negative association appears to dissipate in the long run.

AB Ferroelectric absorbers, which promote carrier separation and exhibit above-gap photovoltages, are attractive candidates for constructing efficient solar cells. Using the ferroelectric insulator BaTiO3 we show how photogeneration and the collection of hot, non-equilibrium electrons through the bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) yields a greater-than-unity quantum efficiency. Despite absorbing less than a tenth of the solar spectrum, the power conversion efficiency of the BPVE device under 1 sun illumination exceeds the Shockley-Queisser limit for a material of this bandgap. We present data for devices that feature a single-tip electrode contact and an array with 24 tips (total planar area of 1 x 1 mu m(2)) capable of generating a current density of 17 mA cm(-2) under illumination of AM1.5 G. In summary, the BPVE at the nanoscale provides an exciting new route for obtaining high-efficiency photovoltaic solar energy conversion.

AB The 2010 Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico resulted in the collection of a vast amount of situ and remotely sensed data that can be used to determine the spatiotemporal extent of the oil spill and test advances in oil spill models, verifying their utility for future operational use. This article summarizes observations of hydrocarbon dispersion collected at the surface and at depth and our current understanding of the factors that affect the dispersion, as well as our improved ability to model and predict oil and gas transport. As a direct result of studying the area where oil and gas spread during the DWH oil spill, our forecasting capabilities have been greatly enhanced. State-of-the-art oil spill models now include the ability to simulate the rise of a buoyant plume of oil from sources at the seabed to the surface. A number of efforts have focused on improving our understanding of the influences of the near-surface oceanic layer and the atmospheric boundary layer on oil spill dispersion, including the effects of waves. In the future, oil spill modeling routines will likely be included in Earth system modeling environments, which will link physical models (hydrodynamic, surface wave, and atmospheric) with marine sediment and biogeochemical components.

AB We study a coupled array of coherently driven photonic cavities, which maps onto a driven-dissipative XY spin-1/2 model with ferromagnetic couplings in the limit of strong optical nonlinearities. Using a site-decoupled mean-field approximation, we identify steady-state phases with canted antiferromagnetic order, in addition to limit cycle phases, where oscillatory dynamics persist indefinitely. We also identify collective bistable phases, where the system supports two steady states among spatially uniform, antiferromagnetic, and limit cycle phases. We compare these mean-field results to exact quantum trajectory simulations for finite one-dimensional arrays. The exact results exhibit short-range antiferromagnetic order for parameters that have significant overlap with the mean-field phase diagram. In the mean-field bistable regime, the exact quantum dynamics exhibits real-time collective switching between macroscopically distinguishable states. We present a clear physical picture for this dynamics and establish a simple relationship between the switching times and properties of the quantum Liouvillian.

AB Zn38Mg12Ca32Yb18 bulk metallic glass (BMG) presents higher corrosion resistance, lower glass transition temperature and lower density than most BMGs. Dynamic properties of Zn38Mg12Ca32Yb18 BMG were investigated by mechanical spectroscopy. The structural (alpha) process in the isothermal spectra is well described by a Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts (KWW) function with beta(KWW) = 0.505. At high frequency, an extra contribution to the at process (i.e. an excess wing) is observed with a much smaller frequency dependence of the loss shear modulus G ''(f) similar to f(-0.37), indicating the presence of a submerged secondary peak The temperature behaviour of the alpha relaxation time, tau(alpha), is characterized by a very small steepness index (i.e. strong behaviour). We find that results for this BMG show a deviation of the correlation between fragility and beta(KWW) generally found in glass formers. Results in the literature for other BMGs suggest that this deviation may not be an exception for BMGs, since very similar values of beta(KWW) (similar to 0.5) have been found for BMGs independently of their steepness index.

AB A new appendage resistance prediction method, which mitigates the technical issues with the existing test procedure, has been developed and presented in this paper. The primary aspects of the new method are 1) the Froude's equivalent flat plate friction drag concept extensively used in the marine industry will not be used in the present method, instead, an aerodynamic profile drag concept for resistance prediction is presented, 2) the turbulent stimulators extensively used in existing model appendage resistance tests will not be used in the proposed test procedure, which eliminates the need for high-speed tests and the problematic issue of estimating the parasitic drag associated with turbulence stimulators, 3) the important juncture vortex drag associated with appendages is considered, 4) the effective velocity entering the stern appendages on resistance is considered, 5) the new scaling formula to relate model profile drag and juncture vortex drag to full-scale appendage drag is developed and presented in this paper.

AB Microstructural, tensile, and fracture characterizations of cylindrically forged forms of aluminum alloys AA7085-O and AA7175-T7452 were performed. Mechanical and fracture properties were investigated along radial, circumferential, and longitudinal directions to determine directional dependency. American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) test methods (ASTM E8-04 and ASTM E1820) were employed for both the tensile and fracture characterizations, respectively. The tensile and fracture properties were related to microstructure in each direction. The strength, elongation at break, and ultimate tensile strength of AA7085-O were higher than those of AA7175-T7452. AA7175-T7452 alloy failed in a brittle manner during fracture studies. AA7085-O outperformed AA7175-T7452 on fracture energy in all of the orientations studied. Smaller grain sizes on the planes normal to circumferential and longitudinal directions showed improvement in both elongation at break and fracture energy values compared to those of radial direction. Scanning electron microscopy images demonstrated cleavage fracture in AA7175-T7452 and transgranular fracture in AA7085-O.

AB High order strong stability preserving (SSP) time discretizations are advantageous for use with spatial discretizations with nonlinear stability properties for the solution of hyperbolic PDEs. The search for high order strong stability time-stepping methods with large allowable strong stability time-step has been an active area of research over the last two decades. Recently, multiderivative time-stepping methods have been implemented with hyperbolic PDEs. In this work we describe sufficient conditions for a two-derivative multistage method to be SSP, and find some optimal SSP multistage two-derivative methods. While explicit SSP Runge-Kutta methods exist only up to fourth order, we show that this order barrier is broken for explicit multi-stage two-derivative methods by designing a three stage fifth order SSP method. These methods are tested on simple scalar PDEs to verify the order of convergence, and demonstrate the need for the SSP condition and the sharpness of the SSP time-step in many cases.

AB A unified approach for the numerical solution of the 3D hyperbolic Euler equations using high order methods, namely continuous Galerkin (CG) and discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods, is presented. First, we examine how classical CG that uses a global storage scheme can be constructed within the DG framework using constraint imposition techniques commonly used in the finite element literature. Then, we implement and test a simplified version in the Non-hydrostatic Unified Model of the Atmosphere (NUMA) for the case of explicit time integration and a diagonal mass matrix. Constructing CG within the DG framework allows CG to benefit from the desirable properties of DG such as, easier hp-refinement, better stability etc. Moreover, this representation allows for regional mixing of CG and DG depending on the flow regime in an area. The different flavors of CG and DG in the unified implementation are then tested for accuracy and performance using a suite of benchmark problems representative of cloud-resolving scale, meso-scale and global-scale atmospheric dynamics. The value of our unified approach is that we are able to show how to carry both CG and DG methods within the same code and also offer a simple recipe for modifying an existing CG code to DG and vice versa.

AB Our objective here is to obtain quality-fused values from multiple sources of probabilistic distributions, where quality is related to the lack of uncertainty in the fused value and the use of credible sources. We first introduce a vector representation for a probability distribution. With the aid of the Gini formulation of entropy, we show how the norm of the vector provides a measure of the certainty, i.e., information, associated with a probability distribution. We look at two special cases of fusion for source inputs those that are maximally uncertain and certain. We provide a measure of credibility associated with subsets of sources. We look at the issue of finding the highest quality fused value from the weighted aggregations of source provided probability distributions. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB We present 20 years (1996-2015) of austral springtime measurements of chlorine monoxide (ClO) over Antarctica from the Chlorine Oxide Experiment (ChlOE1) ground-based millimeter wave spectrometer at Scott Base, Antarctica, as well 12 years (2004-2015) of ClO measurements from the Aura Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS). From August onwards we observe a strong increase in lower stratospheric ClO, with a peak column amount usually occurring in early September. From mid-September onwards we observe a strong decrease in ClO. In order to study interannual differences, we focus on a 3-week period from 28 August to 17 September for each year and compare the average column ClO anomalies. These column ClO anomalies are shown to be highly correlated with the average ozone mass deficit for September and October of each year. We also show that anomalies in column ClO are strongly anti-correlated with 30 hPa temperature anomalies, both on a daily and an interannual timescale. Making use of this anti-correlation we calculate the linear dependence of the interannual variations in column ClO on interannual variations in temperature. By making use of this relationship, we can better estimate the underlying trend in the total chlorine (Cl-y = HCl + ClONO2 + HOCl + 2 x Cl-2 + 2 x Cl2O2 + ClO + Cl). The resultant trends in Cl-y, which determine the long-term trend in ClO, are estimated to be -0.5 +/- 0.2, -1.4 +/- 0.9, and -0.6 +/- 0.4% year(-1), for zonal MLS, Scott Base MLS (both 2004-2015), and ChlOE (1996-2015) respectively. These trends are within 1 sigma of trends in stratospheric Cl-y previously found at other latitudes. The decrease in ClO is consistent with the trend expected from regulations enacted under the Montreal Protocol.

We find that through analytical and numerical studies, near perfect absorption arises over an unusually broad range of beam incidence angles. Due to the presence of graphene, the absorption is tunable via a gate voltage, providing dynamic control of the energy transmission. We show that this strongly enhanced absorption arises due to a coupling between light and a fast wave-mode propagating along the graphene/ metamaterial hybrid.

TI Reciprocity breaking during nonlinear propagation of adapted beams

SO OPTICS EXPRESS

ID ATMOSPHERIC-TURBULENCE; LASER-BEAM; OPTIMIZATION
AB Adaptive optics (AO) systems rely on the principle of reciprocity, or symmetry with respect to the interchange of point sources and receivers. These systems use the light received from a low power emitter on or near a target to compensate phase aberrations acquired by a laser beam during linear propagation through random media. If, however, the laser beam propagates nonlinearly, reciprocity is broken, potentially undermining AO correction. Here we examine the consequences of this breakdown, providing the first analysis of AO applied to high peak power laser beams. While discussed for general random and nonlinear media, we consider specific examples of Kerr-nonlinear, turbulent atmosphere. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America

AB AlN/GaN resonant tunneling diodes grown on low dislocation density semi-insulating bulk GaN substrates via plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy are reported. The devices were fabricated using a six mask level, fully isolated process. Stable room temperature negative differential resistance (NDR) was observed across the entire sample. The NDR exhibited no hysteresis, background light sensitivity, or degradation of any kind after more than 1000 continuous up-and-down voltage sweeps. The sample exhibited a similar to 90% yield of operational devices which routinely displayed an average peak current density of 2.7 kA/cm(2) and a peak-to-valley current ratio of approximate to 1.15 across different sizes.

AB Shallow water provides important habitat for many species, but also exposes these organisms to daily fluctuations in dissolved oxygen (DO) and pH caused by cycles in the balance between photosynthesis and respiration that can contribute to repeated, brief periods of hypoxia and low pH (caused by elevated pCO(2)). The amplitude of these cycles, and the severity and duration of hypoxia and hypercapnia that result, can be increased by eutrophication, and are predicted to worsen with climate change. We conducted laboratory experiments to test the effects of both diel-cycling and constant low DO and pH (elevated pCO(2)) on growth of the juvenile eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica), an economically and ecologically important estuarine species. Severe diel-cycling hypoxia (to 0.5 mg O-2 L-1) reduced shell growth in juvenile oysters, as did constant hypoxia (1.2 and 2.0 mg O-2 L-1), although effects varied among experiments, oyster ages, and exposure durations. Dielcycling pH reduced growth only in experiments in which calcite saturation state cycled to <= 0.10 and only during the initial weeks of these experiments. In other cases, cycling pH sometimes led to increased growth rates. Comparisons of treatment effects across multiple weeks of exposure, and during a longer post-experiment field deployment, indicated that juvenile oysters can acclimate to, and in some cases compensate for initial reductions in growth. As a result, some ecosystem services dependent on juvenile oyster growth rates may be preserved even under severe cycling hypoxia and pH.

DT Article
ID ATOMIC LAYER DEPOSITION; SILICON-CARBIDE; TRANSISTORS; OXIDES
AB Intelligent engineering of graphene-based electronic devices on SiC(0001) requires a better understanding of processes used to deposit gate-dielectric materials on graphene. Recently, Al2O3 dielectrics have been shown to form conformal, pinhole-free thin films by functionalizing the top surface of the graphene with fluorine prior to atomic layer deposition (ALD) of the Al2O3 using a trimethylaluminum (TMA) precursor. In this work, the functionalization and ALD-precursor adsorption processes have been studied with angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, low energy electron diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It has been found that the functionalization process has a negligible effect on the electronic structure of the graphene, and that it results in a twofold increase in the adsorption of the ALD-precursor. In situ TMA-dosing and XPS studies were also performed on three different Si(100) substrates that were terminated with H, OH, or dangling Si-bonds. This dosing experiment revealed that OH is required for TMA adsorption. Based on those data along with supportive in situ measurements that showed F-functionalization increases the amount of oxygen (in the form of adsorbed H2O) on the surface of the graphene, a model for TMA-adsorption on graphene is proposed that is based on a reaction of a TMA molecule with OH.

These were characterized by mass spectrometry, anion photoelectron spectroscopy, and density functional theory based calculations. Agreement between the experimentally and theoretically determined vertical detachment energies and adiabatic detachment energies validated the computed geometrical structures.

AB Results from the Solar Maximum Mission showed a close connection between the hard X-ray (HXR) and transition region (TR) emission in solar flares. Analogously, the modern combination of RHESSI and IRIS data can inform the details of heating processes in ways that were never before possible. We study a small event that was observed with RHESSI, IRIS, SDO, and Hinode, allowing us to strongly constrain the heating and hydrodynamical properties of the flare, with detailed observations presented in a previous paper. Long duration redshifts of TR lines observed in this event, as well as many other events, are fundamentally incompatible with chromospheric condensation on a single loop. We combine RHESSI and IRIS data to measure the energy partition among the many magnetic strands that comprise the flare. Using that observationally determined energy partition, we show that a proper multithreaded model can reproduce these redshifts in magnitude, duration, and line intensity, while simultaneously being well constrained by the observed density, temperature, and emission measure. We comment on the implications for both RHESSI and IRIS observations of flares in general, namely that: (1) a single loop model is inconsistent with long duration redshifts, among other observables; (2) the average time between energization of strands is less than 10 s, which implies that for a HXR burst lasting 10 minutes, there were at least 60 strands within a single IRIS pixel located on the flare ribbon; (3) the majority of these strands were explosively heated with an energy distribution well described by a power law of slope approximate to -1.6; (4) the multi-stranded model reproduces the observed line profiles, peak temperatures, differential emission measure distributions, and densities.

ID FIBER; ABSORPTION; SCATTERING; SPECTRA; SILICON
AB Weak scattering and short optical interaction lengths have, until this work, prevented the observation of trace gas Raman spectra using photonic integrated circuitry. Raman spectroscopy is a powerful analytical tool, and its implementation using chip-scale waveguide devices represents a critical step toward trace gas detection and identification in small handheld systems. Here, we report the first Raman scattering measurements of trace gases using integrated nanophotonic waveguides. These measurements were made possible using highly evanescent rib waveguides functionalized with a thin cladding layer designed to reversibly sorb organophosphonates and other hazardous chemical species. Raman spectra were collected using 9.6 mm-long waveguides exposed to ambient trace concentrations of ethyl acetate, methyl salicylate, and dimethyl sulfoxide with one-sigma limits of detection in 100 s integration times equal to 600 ppm, 360 ppb, and 7.6 ppb, respectively. Our analysis shows that the functionalized waveguide Raman efficiency can be enhanced by over nine orders of magnitude compared to traditional micro-Raman spectroscopy, paving the way toward a sensitive, low-cost, miniature, spectroscopy-based trace gas sensor inherently suitable for foundry-level photonic integrated circuit manufacturing.

AB We associate to every matroid M a polynomial with integer coefficients, which we call the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of M, in analogy with Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials in representation theory. We conjecture that the coefficients are always non-negative, and we prove this conjecture for representable matroids by interpreting our polynomials as intersection cohomology Poincare polynomials. We also introduce a q-deformation of the Mobius algebra of M, and use our polynomials to define a special basis for this deformation, analogous to the canonical basis of the Hecice algebra. We conjecture that the structure coefficients for multiplication in this special basis are non-negative, and we verify this conjecture in numerous examples. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc.

The similar to 20X improvement in electrical conductivity provided by chemically doped SWCNT thin films over MWCNT sheets presents an opportunity for the fabrication of thin-film antennas, leading to potentially simplified system integration and optical transparency. The resonance characteristics of a fabricated chlorosulfonic acid-doped SWCNT thin-film antenna demonstrate the feasibility of the technology and indicate that when the sheet resistance of the thin film is >40 ohm/sq no power is absorbed by the antenna and that a sheet resistance of <10 ohm/sq is needed to achieve a 10 dB return loss in the unbalanced antenna. The dependence of the return loss performance on the SWCNT sheet resistance is consistent with unbalanced metal, metal oxide, and other CNT-based thin-film antennas, and it provides a framework for which other thin-film antennas can be designed.

AB The renewable triphenols, resveratrol and dihydroresveratrol, were used in the preparation of two new phthalonitrile resins (PN), each containing three phthalonitrile groups. These are the first reported PN resins generated from a renewable feedstock. These amorphous PN resins were characterized thoroughly by DSC, NMR spectroscopy and rheometry. The monomers exhibited excellent rheometric viscosities suitable for resin transfer molding and resin infusion molding. After complete cure, the PN polymers exhibited thermal stability to above 500 degrees C and no glass transition temperature (T-g). As a result of the highly cross-linked nature of the network, these materials exhibited a low water uptake of 1 +/- 0.2% and dielectric constant values of approximately 3.0. These results suggest that resveratrol-derived PN resins are excellent candidates for use in maritime environments and aerospace applications.

AB Balance functions have been measured in terms of relative pseudorapidity (Delta(eta)) for charged particle pairs at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider from Au + Au collisions at root s(NN) = 7.7 GeV to 200 GeV using the STAR detector. These results are compared with balance functions measured at the CERN Large Hadron Collider from Pb + Pb collisions at root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV by the ALICE Collaboration. The width of the balance function decreases as the collisions become more central and as the beam energy is increased. In contrast, the widths of the balance functions calculated using shuffled events show little dependence on centrality or beam energy and are larger than the observed widths. Balance function widths calculated using events generated by UrQMD are wider than the measured widths in central collisions and show little centrality dependence. The measured widths of the balance functions in central collisions are consistent with the delayed hadronization of a deconfined quark gluon plasma (QGP). The narrowing of the balance function in central collisions at root s(NN) = 7.7 GeV implies that a QGP is still being created at this relatively low energy.

ID MADDEN-JULIAN OSCILLATION; OCEAN; RAINFALL
AB Convectively coupled Kelvin waves (CCKWs) are a major component of the tropical atmospheric circulation, propagating eastward around the equatorial belt. Here we show that there are scale interactions between CCKWs and the diurnal cycle over the Maritime Continent. In particular, CCKW packets that pass a base point in the eastern Indian Ocean at 90 degrees E between 0600 and 0900UTC subsequently arrive over Sumatra in phase with the diurnal cycle of convection. As the distance between Sumatra and Borneo is equal to the distance traveled by a CCKW in 1day, these waves are then also in phase with the diurnal cycle over Borneo. Consequently, this subset of CCKWs has a precipitation signal up to a factor of 3 larger than CCKWs that arrive at other times of the day and a 40% greater chance of successfully traversing the Maritime Continent.

AB Temporal variability in the vertical distribution of aerosol optical thickness (AOT) derived from the 0.532 mu m aerosol extinction coefficient is described using Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) observations over 8.5years (June 2006 to December 2014). Temporal variability of CALIOP column-integrated AOT is largely consistent with total column AOT trends from several passive satellite sensors, such as the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer, and the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor. Globally, a 0.0002 AOT per year positive trend in deseasonalized CALIOP total column AOT for daytime conditions is attributed to corresponding changes in near-surface (i.e., 0.0-0.5km or 0.5-1.0km above ground level (agl)) aerosol particle loading, while a -0.0006 AOT per year trend during nighttime is attributed to elevated (i.e., 1.0-2.0km or >2.0km agl) aerosols. Regionally, increasing daytime CALIOP AOTs are found over Southern Africa and India, mostly due to changes in aerosol loading at the 1.0-2.0km and 0.0-0.5km agl layers, respectively. Decreasing daytime CALIOP AOTs are observed over Northern Africa, Eastern U.S., and South America (due mostly to elevated aerosol loading), while the negative CALIOP AOT trends found over Eastern China, Europe, and Western U.S. are due mostly to aerosol layers nearer the surface. To our knowledge, this study is the first to provide both a globally comprehensive estimation of the temporal variation in aerosol vertical distribution and an insight into passive sensor column AOT trends in the vertical domain.

AB Shortwave Infrared imaging spectroscopy enables accurate remote mapping of cloud thermodynamic phase at high spatial resolution. We describe a measurement strategy to exploit signatures of liquid and ice absorption in cloud top apparent reflectance spectra from 1.4 to 1.8m. This signal is generally insensitive to confounding factors such as solar angles, view angles, and surface albedo. We first evaluate the approach in simulation and then apply it to airborne data acquired in the Calwater-2/ACAPEX campaign of Winter 2015. Here NASA's Classic Airborne Visible Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS-C) remotely observed diverse cloud formations while the U.S. Department of Energy ARM Aerial Facility G-1 aircraft measured cloud integral and microphysical properties in situ. The coincident measurements demonstrate good separation of the thermodynamic phases for relatively homogeneous clouds.

AB Two procedures using a template-free synthesis of zeolites A and X were compared in an effort to assess how modification of the porous structure of zeolites with various ligands impacts the property of hydrophobicity. Modification with ligands such as octyltrichlorosilane (OTCS), dichlorodiphenylsilane (DCDPS), chlorotrimethylsilane (CTMS), hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDS) as well as with a combination of CTMS and HMDS, was performed. Both procedures led to the formation of water repellant materials. The hydrophobicity of zeolite A increased when zeolite A was modified with DCDPS and with OTCS. Zeolite X demonstrated superior hydrophobic properties when modified with all ligands, except with HMDS.
Infrared spectroscopy (IR), macroscopic analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) data are presented. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A series of novel macroporous materials based on poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-b-sodium polyacrylate is synthesized via aqueous reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization in an oil-in-water high internal phase emulsion (HIPE) utilizing both covalent and ionic crosslinkers (PEG diacrylate and calcium diacrylate, respectively). Porosity is directly related to the calcium diacrylate content of the polyHIPE. Depth profiling XPS of pressed samples reveal the segregation of less polar substituents (PNIPAM, PEGDA) to the interface, whereas ionic components are located deeper within the continuous aqueous phase, primarily driven by ionic strength. This segregation of components stabilizes the internal-continuous phase interface and results in decreased void diameter. Calcium diacrylate also forms ionic crosslinks in the polyHIPE material, resulting in increased interconnecting pore diameter due to volume contraction upon polymerization. Evidence of volume contraction is provided by the stress induced on PEG at the o/w interface by internally located calcium polyacrylate crosslinks, resulting in a decrease in XRD peak intensity. It is therefore proposed that calcium diacrylate is capable of modifying polyHIPE morphology via two separate mechanisms. Published 2016.

AB The apelinergic system includes a series of endogenous peptides apelin, ELABELA/TODDLER and their 7-transmembrane G-protein coupled apelin receptor (APJ, AGTRL-1, APLNR). The APJ receptor is an attractive therapeutic target because of its involvement in cardiovascular diseases and potentially other disorders including liver fibrosis, obesity, diabetes, and neuroprotection. To date, pharmacological characterization of the APJ receptor has been limited due to the lack of small molecule functional agonists or antagonists. Through focused screening we identified a drug-like small molecule agonist hit 1 with a functional EC50 value of 21.5 +/- 5 mu M and binding affinity (K-i) of 5.2 +/- 0.5 mu M. Initial structure-activity studies afforded compound 22 having a 27-fold enhancement in potency and the first sub-micromolar full agonist with an EC50 value of 800 +/- 0.1 nM and K-i of 1.3 +/- 0.3 mu M. Preliminary SAR, synthetic methodology, and in vitro pharmacological characterization indicate this scaffold will serve as a favorable starting point for further refinement of APJ potency and selectivity.

AB We present new viscosity and equation of state (EoS) results extending to high pressures for o-terphenyl, salol, and dibutylphthalate. Using these and data from the literature, we show that the three liquids all conform to density scaling; that is, their reduced viscosities and reorientational relaxation times are a function of the ratio of temperature and density with the latter raised to a constant. Moreover, the functional form of the dependence on this ratio is independent of the experimental probe of the dynamics. This means that there is no decoupling of the viscosities and relaxation times over the measured range of conditions. Previous literature at odds with these results was based on erroneous extrapolations of the EoS or problematic diamond anvil viscosity data. Thus, there are no exceptions to the experimental fact that every non-associated liquid complies with density scaling with an invariant scaling exponent. Published by AIP Publishing.

SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS

ID ENTANGLEMENT; SPECTROSCOPY; RESONANCE; PHOTON
AB We demonstrate the extension of coherence between all four two-electron spin ground states of an InAs quantum dot molecule (QDM) via nonlocal suppression of nuclear spin fluctuations in two vertically stacked quantum dots (QDs), while optically addressing only the top QD transitions. Long coherence times are revealed through dark-state spectroscopy as resulting from nuclear spin locking mediated by the exchange interaction between the QDs. Line shape analysis provides the first measurement of the quieting of the Overhauser field distribution correlating with reduced nuclear spin fluctuations.

AB Polyoxometalates (POMs) exhibit catalytic activity toward a variety of harmful chemicals such as chemical warfare agents, qualifying them as promising candidates as additives to create self-decontaminating surfaces and materials. However, POMs exhibit poor solubility and dispersion behavior in organic matrices, including polymeric coatings. In an effort to improve compatibility with polymer coatings and impart surface segregating behavior, we describe the encapsulation of a Ni(II)-containing POM, alpha(2)-K8P2W17O61(Ni2+center dot OH2)center dot 17H(2)O (Ni-POM), with a series of amphiphilic alkyl ethoxy dimethyl quaternary ammonium salts (QASs) and elucidate their structural coordination. Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were utilized to confirm that QASs are coordinated to the Ni-POM and that the average number of QAS coordinated to each Ni-POM increases with increasing alkyl moiety length. The H-1 NMR spectra of the QAS (Ni-POM)complexes show marked site-specific broadening and reduced spin lattice;relaxation times T-1 compared to either a nonparamagnetic QAS(POM) complex or the neat QAS ligand. These paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) effects were used to obtain structural and dynamical information about the binding of QASs to the Ni-POM. The single-exponential saturation recovery behavior observed in all cases indicated that all bound QAS molecules are rapidly moving about the entire (Ni-POM) surface on a time scale less than tens of milliseconds. Motionally averaged distances of the QAS protons to the paramagnetic Ni2+ center were estimated using a modified Solomon Bloembergen equation. Comparisons of relative distances for protons at different sites on the QAS molecule provide key insights into the structural nature of the bonding. Surprisingly; the ethylene oxide moiety of the amphiphilic QAS was found to coordinate more closely with the surface of the Ni-POM than the quaternary ammonium nitrogen cation, and the alkyl moieties extended outward from the Ni-POM center. These results suggest that QAS(Ni-POM) complexes should behave effectively as a hydrophobic nonpolar complexes in their desired roles as catalytic centers in coatings.

Such self-bound states arise from the interplay of the two-body interactions and quantum fluctuations.

AB This paper describes a portable hyperspectral goniometer system for measurement of hemispherical conical reflectance factor (HCRF) data for terrestrial applications, especially in the coastal zone. This system, the Goniometer for Portable Hyperspectral Earth Reflectance (GOPHER), consists of a computer-controlled Spectra Vista Corporation HR-1024 full-range spectrometer mounted on a rotating arc and track assembly, allowing complete coverage in zenith and azimuth of a full hemisphere for recording HCRF. The control software allows customized scan patterns to be quickly modified in the field, providing for flexibility in recording HCRF and the opposition effect with varying grid sizes and scan ranges in both azimuth and zenith directions. The spectrometer track can be raised and lowered on a mast to accommodate variations in terrain and land cover. To minimize the effect of variations in illumination during GOPHER scan cycles, a dual-spectrometer approach has been adapted to link records of irradiance recorded by a second spectrometer during the GOPHER HCRF scan cycle. Examples of field data illustrate the utility of the instrument for coastal studies. (C) 2016 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE)

AB Self-healing materials, which enable an autonomous repair response to damage, are highly desirable for the long-term reliability of woven or nonwoven textiles. Polyelectrolyte layer-by-layer (LbL) films are of considerable interest as self-healing coatings due to the mobility of the components comprising the film. In this work mechanically stable self-healing films were fabricated through construction of a polyelectrolyte LbL film containing squid ring teeth (SRT) proteins. SRTs are structural proteins with unique self-healing properties and high elastic modulus in both dry and wet conditions (>2 GPa) due to their semicrystalline architecture. We demonstrate LbL construction of multilayers containing native and recombinant SRT proteins capable of self-healing defects. Additionally, we show these films are capable of utilizing functional biomolecules by incorporating an enzyme into the SRT multilayer. Urease was chosen as a model enzyme of interest to test its activity via fluorescence assay. Successful construction of the SRT films demonstrates the use of mechanically stable self-healing coatings, which can incorporate biomolecules for more complex protective functionalities for advanced functional fabrics.

AB To accurately predict the space weather effects of the impacts of coronal mass ejection (CME) at Earth one must know if and when a CME will impact Earth and the CME parameters upon impact. In 2015 Kay et al. presented. Forecasting a CME's Altered Trajectory (ForeCAT), a model for CME deflections based on the magnetic forces from the background solar magnetic field. Knowing the deflection and rotation of a CME enables prediction of Earth impacts and the orientation of the CME upon impact. We first reconstruct the positions of the 2010 April 8. and the 2012 July 12 CMEs from the observations. The first of these CMEs exhibits significant deflection and rotation (34 degrees deflection and 58 degrees rotation), while the second shows almost no deflection or rotation (< 3 degrees each). Using ForeCAT, we explore a range of initial parameters, such as the CME's location and size, and find parameters that can successfully reproduce the behavior for each CME. Additionally, since the deflection depends strongly on the behavior of a CME in the low corona, we are able to constrain the expansion and propagation of these CMEs in the low corona.

AB Low energy electrons may provide mechanisms to enhance thin film growth at low temperatures. As a proof of concept, this work demonstrated the deposition of gallium nitride (GaN) films over areas of similar to 5 cm(2) at room temperature and 100 degrees C using electrons with a low energy of 50 eV from an electron flood gun. The GaN films were deposited on Si(111) wafers using a cycle of reactions similar to the sequence employed for GaN atomic layer deposition (ALD). Trimethylgallium (Ga(CH3)(3), TMG), hydrogen (H) radicals and ammonia (NH3) were employed as the reactants with electron exposures included in the reaction cycle after the TMG/H and NH3 exposures. A number of ex situ techniques were then employed to analyze the GaN films. Spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements revealed that the GaN films grew linearly with the number of reaction cycles. Linear growth rates of up to 1.3 angstrom/cycle were obtained from the surface areas receiving the highest electron fluxes. Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction analysis revealed polycrystalline GaN films with the wurtzite crystal structure. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images showed crystalline grains with diameters between 2 and 10 nm depending on the growth temperature. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy depth-profiling displayed no oxygen contamination when the GaN films were capped with Al prior to atmospheric exposure. However, the carbon concentrations in the GaN films were 10-35 at. %. The mechanism for the low temperature GaN growth is believed to result from the electron stimulated desorption (ESD) of hydrogen. Hydrogen ESD yields dangling bonds that facilitate Ga-N bond formation. Mass spectrometry measurements performed concurrently with the reaction cycles revealed increases in the pressure of H-2 and various GaN etch products during the electron beam exposures. The amount of H-2 and GaN etch products increased with electron beam energy from 25 to 200 eV. These results indicate that the GaN growth occurs with competing GaN etching during the reaction cycles.

AB Field effect transistors (FETs) using SiO2 and Al2O3 as the gate oxides for the back and front sides, respectively, were fabricated on exfoliated two-dimensional (2D) beta-Ga2O3 nano-belts transferred to a SiO2/Si substrate. The mechanical exfoliation and transfer process produced nano-belts with smooth surface morphologies and a uniform low defect density interface with the SiO2/Si substrate. The depletion mode nanobelt transistors exhibited better channel modulation with both front and back gates operational compared to either front or back-gating alone. The maximum transconductance was similar to 4.4 mS mm(-1) with front and back-gating and similar to 3.7 mS mm(-1) with front-gating only and a maximum drain source current density of 60 mA mm(-1) was achieved at a drain-source voltage of 10 V. The FETs had on/off ratios of similar to 10(5) at 25 degrees C with gate-source current densities of similar to 2 x 10(-3) mA mm(-1) at a gate voltage of -30 V. The device characteristics were stable over more than a month for storage in air ambient and the results show the potential of 2D beta-Ga2O3 for power nanoelectronics. Published by AIP Publishing.

TI Suppression of surface-originated gate lag by a dual-channel AlN/GaN
high electron mobility transistor architecture

AB A dual-channel AlN/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) architecture is demonstrated that leverages ultra-thin epitaxial layers to suppress surface-related gate lag. Two high-density two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) channels are utilized in an AlN/GaN/AlN/GaN heterostructure wherein the top 2DEG serves as a quasi-equipotential that screens potential fluctuations resulting from distributed surface and interface states. The bottom channel serves as the transistor's modulated channel. Dual-channel AlN/GaN heterostructures were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on free-standing hydride vapor phase epitaxy GaN substrates. HEMTs fabricated with 300 nm long recessed gates demonstrated a gate lag ratio (GLR) of 0.88 with no degradation in drain current after bias stressed in subthreshold. These structures additionally achieved small signal metrics f(t)/f(max) of 27/46 GHz. These performance results are contrasted with the non-recessed gate dual-channel HEMT with a GLR of 0.74 and 82 mA/mm current collapse with f(t)/f(max) of 48/60 GHz.

AB Large nitramino-substituted furazan anions were combined with small cations (hydroxylammonium, hydrazinium, and ammonium) to form a series of energetic salts that was fully characterized. The structures of several of the compounds (1a, 2a, 3a, and 4a) were further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Based on their physiochemical properties, such as density, thermal stability, and sensitivity, together with the calculated detonation properties, it was found that they exhibit good detonation performance and have potential application as high-energy-density materials.

AB Single-domain antibodies derived from the unique New Antigen Receptor found in sharks have numerous potential applications, ranging from diagnostic reagents to therapeutics. Shark-derived single-domain antibodies possess the same characteristic ability to refold after heat denaturation found in single-domain antibodies derived from camelid heavy-chain-only antibodies. Recently, two shark derived single-domain antibodies specific for the nucleoprotein of Ebola virus were described. Our evaluation confirmed their high affinity for the nucleoprotein, but found their melting temperatures to be low relative to most single-domain antibodies. Our first approach towards improving their stability was grafting antigen-binding regions ( complementarity determining regions) of one of these single-domain antibodies onto a high melting temperature shark single-domain antibody. This resulted in two variants: one that displayed excellent affinity with a low melting temperature, while the other had poor affinity but a higher melting temperature. These new proteins, however, differed in only 3 amino acids within the complementarity determining region 2 sequence. In shark single-domain antibodies, the complementarity determining region 2 is often referred to as hypervariable region 2, as this segment of the antibody domain is truncated compared to the sequence in camelid single-domain antibodies and conventional heavy chain variable domains. To elucidate which of the three amino acids or combinations thereof were responsible for the affinity and stability we made the 6 double and single point mutants that covered the intermediates between these two clones. We found a single amino acid change that achieved a 10 degrees C higher melting temperature while maintaining sub nM affinity. This research gives insights into the impact of the shark sdAb hypervariable 2 region on both stability and affinity.

SO PHYSICAL REVIEW A

DT Article
ID REFRACTIVE-INDEX; FILAMENTATION; GASES; MODEL; O-2; N-2
AB Ultrashort long-wave infrared (LWIR) laser pulses can resonantly excite vibrations in N-2 and O-2 through a two-photon transition. The absorptive vibrational component of the ultrafast optical nonlinearity grows in time, starting smaller than but quickly surpassing the electronic, rotational, and vibrational refractive components. The growth of the vibrational component results in a novel mechanism of third-harmonic generation, providing an additional two-photon excitation channel, fundamental + third harmonic. The original and emergent two-photon excitations drive the resonance exactly out of phase, causing spatial decay of the absorptive vibrational nonlinearity. This nearly eliminates two-photon vibrational absorption. Here we present simulations and analytical calculations demonstrating how these processes modify the ultrafast optical nonlinearity in air. The results reveal nonlinear optical phenomena unique to the LWIR regime of ultrashort pulse propagation in the atmosphere.

TI Half-metallic superconducting triplet spin valve
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
AB We theoretically study a finite-size SF1NF2 spin valve, where a normal metal (N) insert separates a thin standard ferromagnet (F-1) and a thick half-metallic ferromagnet (F-2). For sufficiently thin superconductor (S) widths close to the coherence length xi(0), we find that changes to the relative magnetization orientations in the ferromagnets can result in substantial variations in the transition temperature T-c, consistent with experimental results [Singh et al., Phys. Rev. X 5, 021019 (2015)]. Our results demonstrate that, in good agreement with the experiment, the variations are largest in the case where F-2 is in a half-metallic phase and thus supports only one spin direction. To pinpoint the origins of this strong spin-valve effect, both the equal-spin f(1) and opposite-spin f(0) triplet correlations are calculated using a self-consistent microscopic technique. We find that when the magnetization in F-1 is tilted slightly out of plane, the f(1) component can be the dominant triplet component in the superconductor. The coupling between the two ferromagnets is discussed in terms of the underlying spin currents present in the system. We go further and show that the zero-energy peaks of the local density of states probed on the S side of the valve can be another signature of the presence of superconducting triplet correlations. Our findings reveal that for sufficiently thin S layers, the zero-energy peak at the S side can be larger than its counterpart in the F-2 side.

AB Background: Suicide prevention programs have become ubiquitous among military units; identifying temporal trends and nonclinical factors associated with the chosen suicide methods may help improve suicide prevention strategies.
Objective: To calculate suicide rates of active duty military personnel and identify those who are at risk for firearm-specific suicide.
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Setting: Military units in the United States.
Patients: All active duty enlisted U.S. military personnel from 2005 to 2011.
Measurements: Suicide rates per 100 000 were calculated for each branch. Adjusted odds ratios for firearm-specific suicide were calculated with 95% CIs.
Results: 1455 military personnel committed suicide from 2005 to 2011. From 2006 to 2011, the rates were highest among army personnel (19.13 to 29.44 cases per 100 000). Among suicides with a known cause of death, 62% were attributed to firearms. The results of this study also suggest that among army personnel or marines who committed suicide, those with infantry or special operations job classifications were more likely than those in non-infantry positions to use a firearm.
Limitations: Results are generalizable only to enlisted personnel and reflect only stateside suicides. Data regarding previous psychiatric illness, deployment history, and firearms ownership were lacking.
Conclusion: These results may help inform policymakers and advisors about differences in risks of suicide and violent suicide among the armed services and may help guide efforts to prevent self-harm within the military.

AB This perspective paper underscores the importance of coupled electro-mechanical studies in lithium battery systems with a specific example given of the interaction between temperature-dependent dendrite morphologies and polymer separators. Polymer separators are passive components in lithium battery systems yet play a critical role in cell safety. Separators must maintain dimensional stability to provide electronic isolation of the active electrodes and resist puncture and penetration from lithium dendrites. The polyolefin class of polymers has been used extensively for this application with mixed success. Recent research efforts to characterize lithium dendrite formation and growth have shown distinct temperature-dependent dendrite morphologies: rounded blunt mushroom-shaped, sharp jagged needle-like, and granular particulates. Each of these dendrite morphologies will induce a difference physical interaction with the polymer separator. Anticipating this interaction is difficult since the mechanical properties of the polymer separator itself are largely temperature dependent. This paper describes the anticipated physical interaction of the three different dendrite morphologies listed above as a function of temperature and the local physical properties of the commercial polymer separator. A discussion is also provided on the utility of estimating local mechanical properties in the electrochemical battery environment from traditional mechanical and thermomechanical measurements made in the laboratory.

DE fluid-structure interaction; projectile (ballistic) impact
AB A series of numerical modeling and simulations were conducted for dynamic responses of a fluid-filled storage tank subjected to impact loading resulting from a high-velocity projectile. The focus of the study was placed on two phases. The first phase examined the structural response during the impact period without penetration while the second phase investigated the period of a projectile traveling through a fluid medium inside the storage tank. Some parametric studies were conducted to understand the dynamic responses of the structure. The parameters considered were the fluid filling level in the storage tank, fluid density, tank material properties, and projectile mass and velocity. Understanding what parameters would result in most severe damage to the structure can lead to improved design of storage tanks and proper protection against any potential incident.

TI Self-Reported Minimalist Running Injury Incidence and Severity: A Pilot
Study
SO JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN OSTEOPATHIC ASSOCIATION
LA English
DT Article
ID BAREFOOT; RUNNERS; FOOTWEAR; TRANSITION; PATTERNS; PAIN
AB Introduction: Minimalist running entails using shoes with a flexible thin sole and is popular in the United States. Existing literature disagrees over whether minimalist running shoes (MRS) improve perceived severity of injuries associated with running in traditional running shoes (TRS). Additionally, the perceived injury patterns associated with MRS are relatively unknown.
Objectives: To examine whether injury incidence and severity (ie, degree of pain) by body region change after switching to MRS, and to determine if transition times affect injury incidences or severity with MRS.
Methods: Runners who were either current or previous users of MRS were recruited to complete an Internet-based survey regarding self-reported injury before switching to MRS and whether self-reported pain from that injury decreased after switching. Questions regarding whether new injuries developed in respondents after switching to MRS were also included. Analyses were calculated using t tests, Wilcoxon signed rank tests, and Fischer exact tests.
Results: Forty-seven runners completed the survey, and 16 respondents reported injuries before switching to MRS. Among these respondents, pain resulting from injuries of the feet (P=. 03) and knees (P=.0 1) decreased. Eighteen respondents (38.3%) indicated they sustained new injuries after switching to MRS, but the severity of these did not differ significantly from no injury. Neither time allowed for transition to MRS nor use or disuse of a stretching routine during this period was correlated with an increase in the incidence or severity of injuries.
Conclusion: After switching to MRS, respondents perceived an improvement in foot and knee injuries. Additionally, respondents using MRS reported an injury rate of 3 8.3%, compared with the approximately 64% that the literature reports among TRS users. Future studies should be expanded to determine the full extent of the differences in injury patterns between MRS and TRS.

AB We present a new classifier for acoustic time series that involves a mixture of generative models. The models use a variety of segmentation sizes and feature extraction methods, yet can be combined at a higher level using a mixture probability density function (PDF) thanks to the PDF projection theorem (PPT) that converts the feature PDF to raw time series PDFs. The effectiveness of the method is compared with the leading methods and is shown to be superior using three data sets.

AB During the 1918-1919 pandemic, influenza mortality widely varied across populations and locations. Records of U.S. military members in mobilization camps (n = 40), military academies, and officer training schools were examined to document differences in influenza experiences during the fall 1918. During the fall-winter 19181919, mortality percentages were higher among soldiers in U.S. Army mobilization camps (0.34-4.3%) than among officer trainees (0-1.0%). Susceptibility to infection and clinical expressions of 1918 pandemic influenza varied largely based on host epidemiological characteristics rather than the inherent virulence of the virus.

AB Influenza vaccination rates in the United States remain low. Many emergency department (ED) patients may not routinely seek care elsewhere. In a survey of ED visitors, 36.8% of unvaccinated respondents were willing to consider influenza vaccination during their visit. Participants at high risk for influenza complications were more likely to have been previously vaccinated, but unvaccinated participants at high risk were not significantly more likely to consider ED-based vaccination compared with other participants. ED-based influenza vaccination may be an effective method to expand vaccine coverage.

AB Orbital penetrating injuries are an unfortunately common occurrence; however, those from marine animals are rare. Injuries from marine animals can be quite profound and there are no known reports of complete visual recovery after an orbital penetrating injury. Complications range from secondary infection to a carotid-cavernous fistula, which can complicate the management of these patients. We report a case of penetrating orbital injury from a needlefish with complete return of visual function after surgical removal of foreign debris and an extended course of antibiotics.

TI Effects of model physics on hypoxia simulations for the northern Gulf of

AB A large hypoxic zone forms every summer on the Texas-Louisiana Shelf in the northern Gulf of Mexico due to nutrient and freshwater inputs from the Mississippi/Atchafalaya River System. Efforts are underway to reduce the extent of hypoxic conditions through reductions in river nutrient inputs, but the response of hypoxia to such nutrient load reductions is difficult to predict because biological responses are confounded by variability in physical processes. The objective of this study is to identify the major physical model aspects that matter for hypoxia simulation and prediction. In order to do so, we compare three different circulation models (ROMS, FVCOM, and NCOM) implemented for the northern Gulf of Mexico, all coupled to the same simple oxygen model, with observations and against each other. By using a highly simplified oxygen model, we eliminate the potentially confounding effects of a full biogeochemical model and can isolate the effects of physical features. In a systematic assessment, we found that (1) model-tomodel differences in bottom water temperatures result in differences in simulated hypoxia because temperature influences the uptake rate of oxygen by the sediments (an important oxygen sink in this system), (2) vertical stratification does not explain model-to-model differences in hypoxic conditions in a straightforward way, and (3) the thickness of the bottom boundary layer, which sets the thickness of the hypoxic layer in all three models, is key to determining the likelihood of a model to generate hypoxic conditions. These results imply that hypoxic area, the commonly used metric in the northern Gulf which ignores hypoxic layer thickness, is insufficient for assessing a model's ability to accurately simulate hypoxia, and that hypoxic volume needs to be considered as well.

AB Measurements conducted in the southern Bay of Bengal (BoB) as a part of the ASIRI-EBoB Program portray the characteristics of high-frequency internal waves in the upper pycnocline as well as the velocity structure with episodic events of shear instability. A 20 h time series of CTD, ADCP, and acoustic backscatter profiles down to 150 m as well as temporal CTD measurements in the pycnocline at z=54 m were taken to the east of Sri Lanka. Internal waves of periods similar to 10-40 min were recorded at all depths below a shallow (similar to 20-30 m) surface mixed layer in the background of an 8 m amplitude internal tide. The absolute values of vertical displacements associated with high-frequency waves followed the Nakagami distribution with a median value of 2.1 m and a 95% quintile 6.5 m. The internal wave amplitudes are normally distributed. The tails of the distribution deviate from normality due to episodic high-amplitude displacements. The sporadic appearance of internal waves with amplitudes exceeding similar to 5 m usually coincided with patches of low Richardson numbers, pointing to local shear instability as a possible mechanism of internalwave- induced turbulence. The probability of shear instability in the summer BoB pycnocline based on an exponential distribution of the inverse Richardson number, however, appears to be relatively low, not exceeding 4% for Ri < 0.25 and about 10% for Ri < 0.36 (K-H billows). The probability of the generation of asymmetric breaking internal waves and Holmboe instabilities is above similar to 25%.

TI Evolution of a Canada Basin ice-ocean boundary layer and mixed layer
across a developing thermodynamically forced marginal ice zone

AB A comprehensive set of autonomous, ice-ocean measurements were collected across the Canada Basin to study the summer evolution of the ice-ocean boundary layer (IOBL) and ocean mixed layer (OML). Evaluation of local heat and freshwater balances and associated turbulent forcing reveals that melt ponds (MPs) strongly influence the summer IOBL-OML evolution. Areal expansion of MPs in mid-June start the upper ocean evolution resulting in significant increases to ocean absorbed radiative flux (19 W m(-2) in this study). Buoyancy provided by MP drainage shoals and freshens the IOBL resulting in a 39 MJ m(-2) increase in heat storage in just 19 days (52% of the summer total). Following MP drainage, a near-surface fresh layer deepens through shear-forced mixing to form the summer mixed layer (sML). In late summer, basal melt increases due to stronger turbulent mixing in the thin sML and the expansion of open water areas due in part to wind-forced divergence of the sea ice. Thermal heterogeneities in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) upper ocean led to large ocean-to-ice heat fluxes (100-200 W m(-2)) and enhanced basal ice melt (36 cm d(-1)), well away from the ice edge. Calculation of the upper ocean heat budget shows that local radiative heat input accounted for at least 89% of the observed latent heat losses and heat storage (partitioned 0.77/0.23). These results suggest that the extensive area of deteriorating sea ice observed away from the ice edge during the 2014 season, termed the "thermodynamically forced MIZ," was driven primarily by local shortwave radiative forcing.

AB The relative importance of atmospheric forcing on oceanic intraseasonal (7-60 days) barotropic variability is investigated in the Kuroshio Extension region by comparing in situ measurements with two models: a wind-forced barotropic model and an ocean general circulation model. Large-scale wind stress curl forcing (an atmospheric mode) becomes successively more influential with decreasing periods (at 7-15 day band, compared to 15-30 day and 30-60 day bands). On the other hand, oceanic instabilities (an oceanic mode) become more important with increasing period (at 30-60 day band, compared to 15-30 day and 7-15 day bands). Comparison between the barotropic model and the ocean general circulation model results reveals differences on the broader gyre scale: the atmospheric mode exhibits basin-mode-like spatial patterns with faster phase propagation from east to west, whereas the oceanic mode shows eddy-like spatial patterns with slower westward propagation. The atmospheric mode, which has received less attention on the intraseasonal time scale, contributes an important fraction to the barotropic variability in the Kuroshio Extension region.

TD-LTE operations were carried out in channels overlapping and adjacent to the high power SPN-43 radar with various frequency offsets between the two systems to evaluate the susceptibility of LTE to a high power interfering signal. Our results demonstrate that LTE communication using low antenna heights was not adversely affected by the pulsed interfering signal operating on adjacent frequencies irrespective of the distance of interfering transmitter. Performance was degraded only for very close distances (1-2 km) of overlapping frequencies of interfering transmitter.

AB We report on Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) and multi-wavelength results on the recently discovered very-high-energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) blazar S4 0954+65 (z = 0.368) during an exceptionally bright optical flare in 2015 February. During the time period (2015 February 13/14, or MJD57067) when the MAGIC telescope detected VHE gamma-ray emission from the source, the Fermi-LAT data indicated a significant spectral hardening at GeV energies, with a power-law photon index of 1.8 +/- 0.1-compared with the 3FGL (The Fermi LAT 4-Year Point Source Catalog) value (averaged over four years of observation) of 2.34 +/- 0.04. In contrast, Swift X-Ray Telescope data showed a softening of the X-ray spectrum, with a photon index of 1.72 +/- 0.08 (compared with 1.38 +/- 0.03 averaged during the flare from MJD 57066 to 57077), possibly indicating a modest contribution of synchrotron photons by the highest-energy electrons superposed on the inverse Compton component. Fitting of the quasi-simultaneous (<1 d) broad-band spectrum with a one-zone synchrotron plus inverse-Compton model revealed that GeV/TeV emission could be produced by inverse-Compton scattering of external photons from the dust torus. We emphasize that a flaring blazar showing high flux of greater than or similar to 1.0 x 10(-6) photons cm(-2) s(-1) (E > 100 MeV) and a hard spectral index of Gamma(GeV) < 2.0 detected by Fermi-LAT on daily timescales is a promising target for TeV follow-up by ground-based Cherenkov telescopes to discover high-redshift blazars, investigate their temporal variability and spectral features in the VHE band, and also constrain the intensity of the extragalactic background light.

AB In this paper, we present a nonlinear multiconductor transmission line model to analyze the time-domain and nonlinear responses of broadband switching metamaterials. This analysis employs coupled transmission lines loaded with nonlinear elements to model the response of the metamaterial structures to a vertically polarized free-space excitation. Using this analysis we first examine the time-domain response of a broadband switching metamaterial structure loaded with high-speed Schottky diodes. We then show that this structure's response to incident power can be effectively inverted by replacing these Schottky diodes with varactor diodes. Experimental results are presented for both structures in WR-284 waveguide, which show good agreement with results generated from full-wave and transmission line analysis. We also use the circuit model to simulate power-dependent material parameters and both the input and output third-order intercept point for both the Schottky-loaded and varactor-loaded metamaterials.

AB A new reconfigurable bandstop filter class is proposed, which has the unique property of possessing multiple insertion loss states with a common group delay state. These filters switch between a low-insertion-loss allpass state and a high-rejection bandstop state. The theory, synthesis, and design of these filters are presented. As a demonstration of the concept, a fourth-order constant-group-delay switched bandstop filter microstrip prototype was designed, built, and tested. The prototype has a measured bandstop-state center frequency of 1000 MHz, a 3-dB bandwidth of 119.15 MHz, a stopband rejection of 32.52 dB, a maximum allpass-state insertion loss of 4.08 dB, and a negligible group delay variation between the two states.

AB One year of continuous ground-based lidar observations (2012) is analyzed for single-layer cirrus clouds at the NASA Micro Pulse Lidar Network site at the Goddard Space Flight Center to investigate top-of-the-atmosphere (TOA) annual net daytime radiative forcing properties. A slight positive net daytime forcing is estimated (i.e., warming): 0.07-0.67 Wm(-2) in sample-relative terms, which reduces to 0.03-0.27 W m(-2) in absolute terms after normalising to unity based on a 40% midlatitude occurrence frequency rate estimated from satellite data. Results are based on bookend solutions for lidar extinction-to-backscatter (20 and 30 sr) and corresponding retrievals of the 532-nm cloud extinction coefficient. Uncertainties due to cloud undersampling, attenuation effects, sample selection, and lidar multiple scattering are described. A net daytime cooling effect is found from the very thinnest clouds (cloud optical depth <= 0.01), which is attributed to relatively high solar zenith angles. A relationship involving positive/negative daytime cloud forcing is demonstrated as a function of solar zenith angle and cloud-top temperature. These properties, combined with the influence of varying surface albedos, are used to conceptualise how daytime cloud forcing likely varies with latitude and season, with cirrus clouds exerting less positive forcing and potentially net TOA cooling approaching the summer poles (not ice and snow covered) versus greater warming at the equator. The existence of such a gradient would lead cirrus to induce varying daytime TOA forcing annually and seasonally, making it a far greater challenge than presently believed to constrain the daytime and diurnal cirrus contributions to global radiation budgets.

AB This paper describes a simple model of how a ruler's religious identity affects public goods provision. Our primary insight is that rulers reduce public goods expenditures to a greater degree when there are privately-provided substitutes excludable by religion. The basic idea is that if the good is provided privately to the ruler's co-religionists, the ruler faces weaker incentives to provide this public good because his co-religionists receive lower marginal utility from its provision. Testing such a conjecture is an empirical challenge, however, since the religious identity of rulers rarely varies over time and place. We address this problem by exploiting variation in the religion of rulers in the Indian Princely States. Using data from the 1911 and 1931 Indian censuses, we find that Muslim-ruled states had lower Hindu literacy but had no significant impact on Muslim literacy. This result is consistent with our model, as Muslim religious schools provided a substitute for public schools that served both Hindus and Muslims. The model is further substantiated by the fact that the religion of the ruler had no statistically significant impact on railroad ownership or post office provision, neither of which had privately-provided substitutes.

SO JOURNAL OF THE ACOUSTICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA

DT Article
ID INSTRUMENT
AB This paper describes studies leading to the development of an acoustic instrument for measuring properties of micrometeoroids and other dust particles in space. The instrument uses a pair of easily penetrated membranes separated by a known distance. Sensors located on these films detect the transient acoustic signals produced by particle impacts. The arrival times of these signals at the sensor locations are used in a simple multilateration calculation to measure the impact coordinates on each film. Particle direction and speed are found using these impact coordinates and the known membrane separations. This ability to determine particle speed, direction, and time of impact provides the information needed to assign the particle's orbit and identify its likely origin. In many cases additional particle properties can be estimated from the signal amplitudes, including approximate diameter and (for small particles) some indication of composition/morphology. Two versions of this instrument were evaluated in this study. Fiber optic displacement sensors are found advantageous when very thin membranes can be maintained in tension (solar sails, lunar surface). Piezoelectric strain sensors are preferred for thicker films without tension (long duration free flyers). The latter was selected for an upcoming installation on the International Space Station.

AB BACKGROUND: We sought to determine the incidence, risk factors, and time course for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (DVT/PE) after combat-related major limb amputations.
METHODS: Patients with amputation in Iraq or Afghanistan from 2009 through 2011 were eligible. Details of postinjury care, date of diagnosis of DVT/PE, and injury specific data were collected. Military databases and chart reviews were used.
RESULTS: In 366 patients, 103 (28%) had DVT/PE; PE was diagnosed in 59 (16%) and DVT in 59 (16%). Most DVT (69%) and PE (66%) occurred within 10 days. Increasing ventilator days (odds ratio [OR], 1.97; 95% CI, 1.16 to 3.37) and units of blood transfused (OR, 1.72; 95% CI, 1.11 to 2.68) were associated with DVT. Increasing units of fresh-frozen plasma were associated with PE (OR, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.10 to 1.55).
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of DVT/PE is high after combat-related amputation. Most DVT/PE occur early and prophylaxis is indicated. Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB Growth spirals exhibit appealing properties due to a preferred layer stacking and lack of inversion symmetry. Here, we report spiral growth of MoS2 during chemical vapor deposition on SiO2/Si and epitaxial graphene/SiC substrates, and their physical and electronic properties. We determine the layer-dependence of the MoS2 bandgap, ranging from 2.4 eV for the monolayer to a constant of 1.3 eV beyond the fifth layer. We further observe that spirals predominantly initiate at the step edges of the SiC substrate, based on which we propose a growth mechanism driven by screw dislocation created by the coalescence of two growth fronts at steps.

AB We present a method to retrieve wind speeds in hurricanes from spaceborne passive microwave radiometer data. Brightness temperature (TB) observations acquired at the 6.9-GHz horizontal polarization channel by the AMSR-E and AMSR2 onboard the Earth Observing System Aqua and Global Change Observation Mission-Water 1 satellites are selected for wind retrieval due to the fact that the signal at this frequency is sensitive to high wind speeds but less sensitive to rain scatter than those acquired at other higher frequency channels. The AMSR-E and AMSR2 observations of 53 hurricanes between 2002 and 2014 are collected and collocated with stepped-frequency microwave radiometer (SFMR) measurements. Based on the small slope approximation/small perturbation method model and an ocean surface roughness spectrum, the wind speeds are retrieved from the TB data and validated against the SFMR measurements. The statistical comparison of the entire data set shows that the bias and root-mean-square error (RMSE) of the retrieved wind speeds are 1.11 and 4.34 m/s, respectively, which suggests that the proposed method can obtain high wind speeds under hurricane conditions. Two case studies show that the wind speed retrieval bias and RMSE are 1.08 and 3.93 m/s for Hurricane Earl and 0.09 and 3.23 m/s for Hurricane Edouard, respectively. The retrieved wind speeds from the AMSR-E and AMSR2 continuous three-day observations clearly show the process of hurricane intensification and weakening.

TRENDS; EXPORT; WINTER
AB There has been an increased interest in seasonal forecasting of the Arctic sea ice extent in recent years, in particular the minimum sea ice extent. Here, a dynamical mechanism, based on winter preconditioning, is found to explain a significant fraction of the variance in the anomaly of the September sea ice extent from the long-term linear trend. To this end, a Lagrangian trajectory model is used to backtrack the September sea ice edge to any time during the previous winter and quantify the amount of sea ice advection away from the Eurasian and Alaskan coastlines as well as the Fram Strait sea ice export. The late-winter anomalous sea ice drift away from the coastline is highly correlated with the following September sea ice extent minimum (r=-0.66). It is found that the winter mean Fram Strait sea ice export anomaly is also correlated with the minimum sea ice extent the following summer (r=-0.74). To develop a hindcast model of the September sea ice extent-which does not depend on a priori knowledge of the minimum sea ice extent-a synthetic ice edge initialized at the beginning of the melt season (1 June) is backtracked. It is found that using a multivariate regression model of the September sea ice extent anomaly based on ice export from the peripheral Arctic seas and Fram Strait ice export as predictors reduces the error by 38%. A hindcast model based on the mean December-April Arctic Oscillation index alone reduces the error by 24%.

AB Many analysis tasks involve linked nodes, such as people connected by friendship links. Research on link-based classification (LBC) has studied how to leverage these connections to improve classification accuracy. Most such prior research has assumed the provision of a densely labeled training network. Instead, this article studies the common and challenging case when LBC must use a single sparsely labeled network for both learning and inference, a case where existing methods often yield poor accuracy. To address this challenge, we introduce a novel method that enables prediction via "neighbor attributes," which were briefly considered by early LBC work but then abandoned due to perceived problems. We then explain, using both extensive experiments and loss decomposition analysis, how using neighbor attributes often significantly improves accuracy. We further show that using appropriate semi-supervised learning (SSL) is essential to obtaining the best accuracy in this domain and that the gains of neighbor attributes remain across a range of SSL choices and data conditions. Finally, given the challenges of label sparsity for LBC and the impact of neighbor attributes, we show that multiple previous studies must be re-considered, including studies regarding the best model features, the impact of noisy attributes, and strategies for active learning.

AB We report the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) detections of high-energy (>100 MeV) gamma-ray emission from two recent optically bright classical novae, V1369 Centauri 2013 and V5668 Sagittarii 2015. At early times, Fermi target-of-opportunity observations prompted by their optical discoveries provided enhanced LAT exposure that enabled the detections of gamma-ray onsets beginning 2 days after their first optical peaks. Significant gamma-ray emission was found extending to 39-55 days after their initial LAT detections, with systematically fainter and longer duration emission compared to previous gamma-ray-detected classical novae. These novae were distinguished by multiple bright optical peaks that encompassed the time spans of the observed gamma-ray. The gamma-ray light curves and spectra of the two novae are presented along with representative hadronic and leptonic models, and comparisons with other novae detected by the LAT are discussed.

AB On 2015 February 21, simultaneous observations of Jupiter's decametric radio emission between 10 and 33 MHz were carried out using three powerful low-frequency radio telescopes: the Long Wavelength Array Station One in the USA, the Nancay Decameter Array in France, and the URAN2 telescope in Ukraine. We measured the lag times of short-bursts (S-bursts) for 105 minutes of data over effective baselines of up to 8460 km by using cross-correlation analysis of the spectrograms from each instrument. Of particular interest is the measurement of the beaming thickness of S-bursts, testing if either flashlight-or beacon-like beaming is emanating from Jupiter. We find that the lag times for all pairs drift slightly as time elapses, in agreement with expectations from the flashligh-tlike beaming model. This leads to a new constraint of the minimum beaming thickness of 2 ''.66. Also, we find that most of the analyzed data abound with S-bursts, whose occurrence probability peaks at 17-18 MHz.

AB We present the analysis of a decaying active region observed by the EUV Imaging Spectrometer on Hinode during 2009 December 7-11. We investigated the temporal evolution of its structure exhibited by plasma at temperatures from 300,000 to 2.8 million degrees, and derived the electron density, differential emission measure, effective electron temperature, and elemental abundance ratios of Si/S and Fe/S (as a measure of the First Ionization Potential (FIP) Effect). We compared these coronal properties to the temporal evolution of the photospheric magnetic field strength obtained from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory Michelson Doppler Imager magnetograms. We find that, while these coronal properties all decreased with time during this decay phase, the largest change was at plasma above 1.5 million degrees. The photospheric magnetic field strength also decreased with time but mainly for field strengths lower than about 70 Gauss. The effective electron temperature and the FIP bias seem to reach a "basal" state (at 1.5 x 10(6) K and 1.5, respectively) into the quiet Sun when the mean photospheric magnetic field (excluding all areas < 10 G) weakened to below 35 G, while the electron density continued to decrease with the weakening field. These physical properties are all positively correlated with each other and the correlation is the strongest in the high-temperature plasma. Such correlation properties should be considered in the quest for our understanding of how the corona is heated. The variations in the elemental abundance should especially be considered together with the electron temperature and density.

AB We have carried out two sets of observations to quantify the properties of SiO gas in the unusual HD 172555 debris disk: (1) a search for the J = 8-7 rotational transition from the vibrational ground state, carried out with the Atacama Pathfinder EXperiment (APEX) submillimeter telescope and heterodyne receiver at 863 mu m. and (2) a search at 8.3 mu m for the P(17) ro-vibrational transition of gas phase SiO, carried out with the Very Large Telescope (VLT)/VISIR with a resolution, lambda/Delta lambda, of 30,000. The APEX measurement resulted in a 3.3 sigma detection of an interstellar feature, but only an upper limit to emission at the radial velocity and line width expected from HD 172555. The VLT/VISIR result was also an upper limit. These were used to provide limits for the abundance of gas phase SiO. for a range of temperatures. The upper limit from our APEX detection, assuming an 8000 K primary star photospheric excitation, falls more than an order of magnitude below the self-shielding stability threshold derived by Johnson et al. (2012). Our results thus favor a solid-state origin for the 8.3 mu m feature seen in the Spitzer IRS spectrum of the circumstellar excess emission. and the production of circumstellar O I and Si I by SiO UV photolysis. The implications of these estimates are explored in the framework of models of the HD 172555 circumstellar disk.

AB The propagation of Analog Single Event Transients (ASETs) to multiple outputs of Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJTs) Integrated Circuits (ICs) is reported for the first time. The results demonstrate that ASETs can appear at several outputs of a BJT amplifier or comparator as a result of a single ion or single laser pulse strike at a single physical location on the chip of a large-scale integrated BJT analog circuit. This is independent of interconnect cross-talk or charge-sharing effects. Laser experiments, together with SPICE simulations and analysis of the ASET's propagation in the s-domain are used to explain how multiple-output transients (MOTs) are generated and propagate in the device. This study demonstrates that both the charge collection associated with an ASET and the ASET's shape, commonly used to characterize the propagation of SETs in devices and systems, are unable to explain quantitatively how MOTs propagate through an integrated analog circuit. The analysis methodology adopted here involves combining the Fourier transform of the propagating signal and the current-source transfer function in the s-domain. This approach reveals the mechanisms involved in the transient signal propagation from its point of generation to one or more outputs without the signal following a continuous interconnect path.

AB Carrier injection by single-photon absorption using ultraviolet optical pulses is used to investigate single-event transients in pristine and proton-irradiated AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. High-precision spatial mapping of defects and traps in AlGaN/GaN HEMT devices identify regions of enhanced SET signals, or "hot spots" that are ascribed to the presence of lattice defects that modify the electric field in the structure. The resulting transient shape and amplitude depend strongly on the specific location of the injected carriers, and vary with changes in gate and drain bias. Proton irradiation significantly alters transient signal shapes, increases the integrated collected charge, and increases density of defects and traps.

ID AD-HOC NETWORKS; CDMA; TRANSMISSION; SYSTEMS; CODES
AB The classical approach to interference management in wireless medium access is based on avoidance. Recently, there is a growing interest in exploiting interference (rather than avoiding it) to increase network throughput. This was made possible by a number of advances at the physical layer. In particular, the so-called successive interference cancellation (SIC) scheme appears very promising, due to its ability to enable concurrent receptions from multiple transmitters as well as interference rejection. Although SIC has been extensively studied as a physical layer technology, its research and advances in the context of multi-hop wireless network remain limited. In this paper, we aim to close this gap by offering a systematic study of SIC in a multi-hop wireless network. After gaining a fundamental understanding of SIC's capability and limitation, we propose a cross-layer optimization framework for SIC that incorporates variables at physical, link, and network layers. We use numerical results to affirm the validity of our optimization framework and give insights on how SIC behaves in a multi-hop wireless network.

AB A sharp-interface numerical approach is developed for modeling the electrochemical environment in crevices and pits due to galvanic corrosion in aqueous media. The concentration of chemical species and the electrical potential in the crevice or pit solution environment is established using the steady state Nernst-Planck equations along with the assumption of local electroneutrality (LEN). The metal-electrolyte interface fluxes are defined in terms of the cathodic and anodic current densities using Butler-Volmer kinetics. The extended finite element method (XFEM) is employed to discretize the nondimensionalized governing equations of the model and a level set function is used to describe the interface morphology independent of the underlying finite element mesh. Benchmark numerical studies simulating intergranular crevice corrosion in idealized aluminum-magnesium (Al-Mg) alloy microstructures in two dimensions are presented. Simulation results indicate that corrosive dissolution of magnesium is accompanied by an increase in the pH and chloride concentration of the crevice solution environment, which is qualitatively consistent with experimental observations. Even for low current densities the model predicted pH is high enough to cause passivation, which may not be physically accurate; however, this model limitation could be overcome by including the hydrolysis reactions that potentially decrease the pH of the crevice solution environment. Finally, a mesh convergence study is performed to establish the accuracy of the XFEM and a sensitivity study examining the relationship between crevice geometry and species concentrations is presented to demonstrate the robustness of the XFEM formulation in handling complex corrosion interface morphologies.

AB This study aims to report the clinical and functional outcomes of revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in a young, active duty military population. Patients undergoing revision ACL reconstruction were enrolled in an institutional clinical database and followed prospectively. The primary outcomes were patients' scores on a timed run, as compared with recorded scores before reinjury. Secondary outcomes included scores on the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC), the International Knee Documentation Committee subjective (IKDC subjective), the Short Form - 36 health survey (SF-36) version 2, the Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), and the Tegner activity scale. A total of 13 patients were identified who met the inclusion criteria and had complete follow-up. The mean age at revision ACL reconstruction was 20.5 years (range, 19-22 years), and mean follow-up was 40.2 months (range, 13-66 months). All patients underwent a single stage revision ACL reconstruction with ipsilateral bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft, ipsilateral hamstring autograft, or bone-tendon-bone allograft. Mean physical readiness test (PRT) score at final follow-up was not statistically different than documented preinjury PRT score (77.9 vs. 85.5, p > 0.05), nor was the mean run time (7:12 vs. 6:43/mile, p > 0.05). Significant improvements exceeding published minimal clinically important differences were seen in SANE score, SF-36 physical component summary score, KOOS sports and recreation, KOOS quality of life, WOMAC pain score, and WOMAC function score. Patients undergoing revision ACL reconstruction at our facility show good recovery of baseline physical performance as measured by the semiannual PRT and timed run test, and significant improvements in patient-reported outcome scores.

TI Split-time method for estimation of probability of capsizing caused by
pure loss of stability

ID BEAM WIND; PREDICTION; WAVES; SHIP
AB The paper reviews a multi-year research effort for using the split-time method to calculate the probability of ship capsizing due to pure loss of stability in irregular waves. The idea of the split-time method is to separate the complex problem into two less complex problems: a non-rare problem that involves the uperossing of an intermediate level of roll and a rare problem that focuses on capsizing after an uperossing. An initial implementation using a dynamic model with piecewise linear stiffness, which can be considered to be the simplest model of capsizing in beam seas, led to the concept of critical roll rate as the smallest roll rate at the instant of uperossing that inevitably leads to capsizing. The extension of the split-time method to pure loss of stability required the consideration of the change of roll stiffness in waves and led to calculating the critical roll rate at each uperossing. A metric of the likelihood of capsizing has been defined as the difference between the observed and critical roll rate at the instances of uperossing. The probability of capsizing after uperossing is found by approximating the tail with the Generalized Pareto Distribution. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Using square wave voltammetry, we show an increase in the electrochemical detection of trinitrotoluene (TNT) with a working electrode constructed from plasma modified graphene on a SiC surface vs. unmodified graphene. The graphene surface was chemically modified using electron beam generated plasmas produced in oxygen or nitrogen containing backgrounds to introduce oxygen or nitrogen moieties. The use of this chemical modification route enabled enhancement of the electrochemical signal for TNT, with the oxygen treatment showing a more pronounced detection than the nitrogen treatment. For graphene modified with oxygen, the electrochemical response to TNT can be fit to a two-site Langmuir isotherm suggesting different sites on the graphene surface with different affinities for TNT. We estimate a limit of detection for TNT equal to 20 ppb based on the analytical standard S/N ratio of 3. In addition, this approach to sensor fabrication is inherently a high-throughput, high-volume process amenable to industrial applications. High quality epitaxial graphene is easily grown over large area SiC substrates, while plasma processing is a rapid approach to large area substrate processing. This combination facilitates low cost, mass production of sensors.

AB This article traces the contributions to psychological theory and practice of Theodore R. Sarbin over a career that began in the 1930s and ended with his death in 2005. His early research on clinical vs. actuarial prediction and on hypnosis reflected a disposition to be critical of received ways of thinking in psychology. He came to think of many of the terms in the psychological vocabulary as ossified metaphors turned into myths. His promotion of role theory within social psychology gave priority to social structure as the key to understanding conduct, and he saw the self and social identity as products of the interaction of the individual with society. He rejected both mentalism and mechanism as adequate approaches to psychology. He turned to contextualism as the preferred world view for psychology, and to narrative as a way of understanding the flow of human life.

AB A wide-angle parabolic-wave-equation algorithm is developed and validated for local-helioseismic wave propagation. The parabolic equation is derived from a factorization of the linearized acousto-gravity wave equation. We apply the parabolic-wave equation to modeling acoustic propagation in a plane-parallel waveguide with physical properties derived from helioseismic data. The wavenumber power spectrum and wave-packet arrival-time structure for receivers in the photosphere with separation up to 30 degrees is computed, and good agreement is demonstrated with measured values and a reference spectral model.

AB A numerical study is conducted to explore the effect of a single dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuator for controlling a turbulent boundary-layer separation on a deflected flap of a high-lift airfoil at a chord-based Reynolds number of 240,000. An integrated numerical model consisting of a dielectric barrier discharge electrohydrodynamic bodyforce model and a computational fluiddy namics package called NavyFOAM is employed in this study. Comparison of current computational results against experimental data indicates reasonable agreement between the two studies for the baseline flow as well as controlled cases using two alternating current wave forms including sine and pulse-amplitude-modulated sine with different modulation frequencies. Performance of the actuator is also examined for square and pulse alternating current waveforms. It is found that, at the experimental conditions, the pulse-amplitude-modulated sine waveform provides the most lift enhancement in comparison with other waveforms used in this study, despite the least power input that it requires to operate. The effect of the input voltage amplitude on the performance of the actuator is also examined for the sine and pulse-amplitude-modulated sine waveforms. It is shown that, beyond a critical voltage, the sine wave is more effective in improving the aerodynamic performance of the airfoil than the other waveform.

AB The topology and evolution of three-dimensional flow past a cylinder of slenderness ratio SR = 1 mounted in a wind tunnel is examined for 0.1 <= Re <= 325 ( based on the diameter of the cylinder) where steady-state solutions have been obtained. Direct numerical simulations were computed using an in-house parallel finite element code. The three-dimensional theory of separation is used to analyze and interpret the flow phenomena. Results indicate that symmetry breaking occurs at Re = 1, while the first prominent structure is a horseshoe vortex downstream from the cylinder. At Re = 150, two foci are observed, indicating the formation of two tornadolike vortices downstream. Concurrently, another horseshoe vortex is formed upstream from the cylinder. For higher Reynolds numbers, the flow downstream is segmented to upper and lower parts, whereas the topology of the flow on the solid boundaries remains unaltered. Pressure distributions show that pressure, the key physical parameter in the flow, decreases everywhere except immediately upstream from the cylinder. In addition, creation of critical points from saddle-node-type bifurcations occur when the streamwise component of the pressure gradient changes sign. Finally, at Re = 325, an additional horseshoe vortex is formed at the wake of the cylinder. In all computations, an absence of critical points was observed on the free end of the cylinder.

AB Recent observations from the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) have discovered a new class of numerous low-lying dynamic loop structures, and it has been argued that they are the long-postulated unresolved fine structures (UFSs) that dominate the emission of the solar transition region. In this letter, we combine IRIS measurements of the properties of a sample of 108 UFSs (intensities, lengths, widths, lifetimes) with onedimensional non-equilibrium ionization simulations, using the HYDRAD hydrodynamic model to examine whether the UFSs are now truly spatially resolved in the sense of being individual structures rather than being composed of multiple magnetic threads. We find that a simulation of an impulsively heated single strand can reproduce most of the observed properties, suggesting that the UFSs may be resolved, and the distribution of UFS widths implies that they are structured on a spatial scale of 133 km on average. Spatial scales of a few hundred kilometers appear to be typical for a range of chromospheric and coronal structures, and we conjecture that this could be an important clue for understanding the coronal heating process.

AB Immunological responses to vaccination can differ depending on whether the vaccine is given alone or with other vaccines. This study was a retrospective evaluation of the immunogenicity of a tetravalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine for serogroups A, C, W, and Y (MenACWY) administered alone (n = 41) or concomitantly with other vaccines (n = 279) to U.S. military personnel (mean age, 21.6 years) entering the military between 2006 and 2008. Concomitant vaccines included tetanus/diphtheria (Td), inactivated polio vaccine (IPV), hepatitis vaccines, and various influenza vaccines, among others; two vaccine groups excluded Tdap and IPV. Immune responses were evaluated in baseline and postvaccination sera for Neisseria meningitidis serogroups C and Y 1 to 12 months (mean, 4.96 months) following vaccination. Functional antibodies were measured by using a serum bactericidal antibody assay with rabbit complement (rSBA) and by measurement of serogroup- specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies. The percentage of vaccinees reaching threshold levels (IgG concentration in serum, >= 2 = mu g/ml; rSBA titer, >= 8) corresponding to an immunologic response was higher postvaccination than at baseline (P < 0.001). Administration ofMenACWYalong with other vaccines was associated with higher geometric means of IgG concentrations and rSBA titers than those measured 4.60 months after a single dose of Men ACWY. In addition, higher percentages of vaccinees reached the immunological threshold (range of odds ratios [ORs], 1.5 to 21.7) and more of them seroconverted (OR range, 1.8 to 4.8) when Men ACWY was administered with any other vaccine than when administered alone. Additional prospective randomized clinical trials are needed to confirm the observed differences among groups in the immune response to Men ACWY when given concomitantly with other vaccines to U.S. military personnel.

AB In recent years, some aggressive actions against cyber-criminals and terrorists have come not only from state actors, but also from independent third parties such as Anonymous. These groups have claimed some significant victories in their battles against ISIS and similar organizations, by hacking their email, publicly exposing their secret communications, and knocking their websites offline. The hacker groups also combat other cyber criminals, including distributors of child pornography. Some of the groups' activities, however, violate the computer hacking laws of many nations. Some commentators have criticized these statutes, claiming that the laws unnecessarily prohibit private actors from serving the public good.
In this Essay, I defend the broad prohibition of cyber-vigilantism, and argue that well-intentioned private actors can accomplish their goals by working with governments. I first review global jurisprudence, case studies, and academic commentary to explain why courts and policymakers historically have disfavoured vigilantism in other contexts, and I apply that reasoning to cyberspace. I explain that cyber-vigilantism can lead to several negative consequences, including the potential for abuse of the system, undercutting the legitimacy of democratic systems, and disproportionate punishments that are not necessarily effective. I then argue that instead of operating independently, these private groups can more effectively collaborate with governments and other private actors to fight threats in cyberspace.

AB In this paper we study a generalized variation of the replicator dynamic that involves several species and sub-species that may interact. We show how this dynamic comes about from a specific finite-population model, but also show that one must take into consideration the dynamic nature of the population sizes (and hence proportions) in order to make the model complete. We provide expressions for these population dynamics to produce a kind of multi-replicator dynamic. We then use this replicator dynamic to show that cooperation can emerge as a stable behavior when two species each play prisoner's dilemma as their intra-species game and a form of zero-sum predator prey game as their inter-species game. General necessary and sufficient conditions for cooperation to emerge as stable are provided for a number of game classes. We also showed an example using Hawk-Dove where both species can converge to stable (asymmetric) mixed strategies. Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB Reducing mental health stigma and perceived barriers to care is a necessary strategy for addressing the public health problem of suicide among the United States Armed Forces. The purpose of this study was threefold: (a) to empirically evaluate the principal component structure of the Perceived Barriers to Care (PBTC) measure; (b) to gain an understanding of the perceived barriers to seeking mental health services among Marine Corps noncommissioned officers (NCOs) selected to participate in a primary suicide prevention training program, Never Leave a Marine Behind (NLMB); and (c) to explore the relationship among sex, education, prior exposure to suicide within one's military unit, and perceived barriers to seeking mental health services. The data for the PBTC (N = 1,758) were drawn from a previously performed pretest/posttest program evaluation study of the Marine Corp's NLMB program, which took place over 6 months in 2009 (April-October). The three highest perceptions of barriers to care reported by NCOs for their Marines were related to being embarrassed, having members of one's unit have less confidence in the Marine, and concerns about being treated differently by military unit leadership. Three principal components for PBTC were identified, accounting for approximately 59% of the total variance. Higher education and prior exposure to suicide within one's military unit significantly correlated with greater perceived barriers to care; sex was not significantly correlated with greater perceived barriers to care. Implications of these findings, in relation to future research, are further discussed.

AB The properties of steel substrates coated with soft polymers were characterized, in order to assess their connection to ballistic properties. An impact-induced viscoelastic phase change of the polymer effects large energy dissipation, while also spreading the force over a wider area, which reduces the impact pressure. Both effects enhance the performance, as directly measured and seen from strain measurements on the substrate taken during ballistic tests. The contribution of the front-surface polymer to impact performance is increased for harder substrates, indicating a coupling of the layers related to impedance mismatching. Since this effect is very local, the phenomenon can be exploited by surface-hardening of the steel.

AB Semiconductor nanocrystals offer an enormous diversity of potential device applications, based an their size-tunable photoluminescence, high optical stability and 'bottom-up' chemical approaches to sef-assemby. However, the promise of such applications can be seriously limited by photoluminescence intermittency in nanocrystal emission, that is, 'blinking', arising from the escape of either one or both of the photoexcited carriers to the nanocrystal surface. In the first scenario, the remaining nanocrystal charge quenches photoluminescence via non-radiative Auger recombination, whereas for the other, the exciton is thought to be intercepted before thermalization and does not contribute to the photoluminescence. This Review summarizes the current understanding of the mechanisms responsible for nanocrystal blinking kinetics as well as core-shell engineering efforts to control such phenomena. In particular, 'softening' of the core-shell confinement potential strongly suppresses non-radiative Auger processes in charged nanocrystals, with successful non-blinking implementations demonstrated in CdSe-CdS core-thick-shell nanocrystals and their modifications.

These novel approaches have enabled gentle but effective delivery of molecules into specific adhered target cells, with unprecedented spatial resolution. We review here recent progress in the development of these technologies with an emphasis on in vitro delivery into adherent cells utilizing. mechanical penetration or electroporation. We discuss the major advantages and limitations of these approaches and propose possible strategies for improvements. Finally, we discuss the impact of these technologies on biological research concerning cell-specific temporal studies, for example non-destructive sampling and analysis of intracellular molecules.

AB Introduction: The burden of alcohol misuse is unknown among shipboard U.S. Navy and Marine Corps military personnel immediately prior to deployment and may be elevated.
Methods: Anonymous survey data on hazardous, dependent, and binge alcohol misuse and involuntary drug consumption were collected during 2012-2014 among shipboard personnel within approximately 2 weeks of deployment. Using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test Consumption (AUDIT-C), hazardous alcohol misuse was defined using two cut-point scoring criteria: (1) >= 3 for women and >= 4 for men; and (2) >= 4 for women and >= 5 for men; binge drinking as >= 4 drinks for women and >= 5 drinks for men on a typical day in past 30 days; and dependent alcohol misuse as an AUDIT-C score of >= 8. Demographic-and sex-stratified self-reported alcohol misuse prevalence was reported for analysis conducted during 2014-2015.
Results: Among 2,351 male and female shipboard personnel, 39%-54% screened positive for hazardous, 27% for binge, and 15% for dependent alcohol use. Seven percent reported involuntary drug consumption history. A larger proportion of those aged 17-20 years screened positive for dependent alcohol use compared with the overall study population prevalence.
Conclusions: A large proportion of shipboard personnel screened positive for hazardous and dependent alcohol use (18% among those aged <21 years) at deployment onset. These data can inform interventions targeting shipboard personnel engaging in hazardous use before progression to dependent use and enable early identification and care for dependent users. Future studies should include more comprehensive assessment of factors associated with involuntary drug consumption. (C) 2016 American Journal of Preventive Medicine. Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB This paper describes a high performing, hybrid parallel, and heterogeneous algorithmic approach to narrowband Delay-Sum Beamforming (DSB) in the frequency domain using a Just-In-Time Asynchronous Data Method (JIT-ADM) parallel pattern. JIT-ADM is a novel asynchronous parallel programming pattern that unifies various levels of asynchronous concurrency available with distributed heterogeneous computing. The computational performance of this DSB algorithm was analyzed on a 50 node Cray XC30 with a single 10-core Intel Xeon E5-2670 v2 and NVIDIA Tesla K20X general purpose Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) on each node. The algorithm exhibits well behaved weak scalability with 92.7 percent parallel efficiency at 50 nodes compared to maximum performance observed. It is also shown that the algorithm efficiently utilizes a large portion of the available hardware. During beamforming the GPU is utilized at 51.8 percent of its maximum double precision floating point throughput whereas a comparable Central Processing Unit (CPU) version utilizes 60.0 percent of its maximum expected floating point throughput. Across the weak scalability study, utilizing GPUs for processing, a 2-5x performance gain is achieved compared to using CPUs. A brief derivation and validation of the implemented DSB is also presented.

AB The signal measured by heave-pitch-roll directional wave buoys yields the first four coefficients of a Fourier series. Data adaptive methods must be employed to estimate a directional wave spectrum. Marine X-band radars (MRs) have the advantage over buoys that they can measure "model-free" two-dimensional (2D) wave spectra. This study presents the first comprehensive validation of MR-derived multi-directional wave characteristics. It is based on wave data from the 2010 Impact of Typhoons on the Ocean in the Pacific (ITOP) experiment in the Philippine Sea, namely MR measurements from R/V Roger Revelle, Extreme Air-Sea Interaction (EASI) buoy measurements, as well as WAVEWATCH-III (WW3) modeling results. Buoy measurements of mean direction and spreading as function of frequency, which do not require data adaptive methods, are used to validate the WW3 wave spectra. An advanced MR wave retrieval technique is introduced that addresses various shortcomings of existing methods. Spectral partitioning techniques, applied to MR and WW3 results, reveal that multimodal seas are frequently present. Both data sets are in excellent agreement, tracking the evolution of up to 4 simultaneous wave systems over extended time periods. This study demonstrates MR's and WW3's strength at measuring and predicting 2D wave spectra in swell-dominated seas.

AB The spatial variability of open ocean wave fields on scales of O (10km) is assessed from four different data sources: TerraSAR-X SAR imagery, four drifting SWIFT buoys, a moored waverider buoy, and WAVEWATCH III (a"double dagger) model runs. Two examples from the open north-east Pacific, comprising of a pure wind sea and a mixed sea with swell, are given. Wave parameters attained from observations have a natural variability, which decreases with increasing record length or acquisition area. The retrieval of dominant wave scales from point observations and model output are inherently different to dominant scales retrieved from spatial observations. This can lead to significant differences in the dominant steepness associated with a given wave field. These uncertainties have to be taken into account when models are assessed against observations or when new wave retrieval algorithms from spatial or temporal data are tested. However, there is evidence of abrupt changes in wave field characteristics that are larger than the expected methodological uncertainties.

AB Mental ill health is prevalent among doctors, especially those in the early stages of postgraduate training. However, a paucity of research has examined factors predictive of psychological distress in this population.
To report the findings from a multi-centre survey of mental health among junior doctors in Ireland, and assess the extent to which moderator variables (e.g., age, academic performance, nationality, etc.) alter the levels of psychological distress caused by internship.
An online, anonymous, questionnaire was distributed to all interns in the Republic of Ireland in January 2012.
A total of 270 interns responded to the survey (45.0 % response rate), with 48.5 % of the respondents having a score indicative of psychological distress. A regression model found that nationality, academic performance, intern training network, rating of work stressors, home stressors, and work-life balance were associated with differing levels of mental health as measured by the General Health Questionnaire-12.
There is a need to consider moderator variables when examining mental health in healthcare populations to avoid drawing overly simplistic conclusions. Interns in Ireland reported particularly high levels of psychological distress compared to other studies of mental health among healthcare populations.

AB The objective of this study was to provide guidance on material specifications for powders used in laser powder bed fusion based additive manufacturing (AM) processes. The methodology was to investigate how different material property assumptions in a simulation affect meltpool prediction and by corrolary how different material properties affect meltpool formation in AM processes. The sensitvity of meltpool variations to each material property can be used as a guide to help drive future research and to help prioritize material specifications in requirements documents. By identifying which material properties have the greatest affect on outcomes, metrology can be tailored to focus on those properties which matter most; thus reducing costs by eliminating unnecessary testing and property charaterizations. Futhermore, this sensitivity study provides insight into which properties require more accurate measurements, thus motivating development of new metrology methods to measure those properties accurately.

AB Growing penetration of intermittent resources such as renewable generations increases the risk of instability in a power grid. This paper introduces the concept of observability and its computational algorithms for a power grid monitored by the wide-area measurement system (WAMS) based on synchrophasors, e.g. phasor measurement units (PMUs). The goal is to estimate real-time states of generators, especially for potentially unstable trajectories, the information that is critical for the detection of rotor angle instability of the grid. The paper studies the number and siting of synchrophasors in a power grid so that the state of the system can be accurately estimated in the presence of instability. An unscented Kalman filter (UKF) is adopted as a tool to estimate the dynamic states that are not directly measured by synchrophasors. The theory and its computational algorithms are illustrated in detail by using a 9-bus 3-generator power system model and then tested on a 140-bus 48-generator Northeast Power Coordinating Council power grid model. Case studies on those two systems demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach using a limited number of synchrophasors for dynamic state estimation for stability assessment and its robustness against moderate inaccuracies in model parameters.

AB One crucial component of the additive manufacturing software toolchain is a class of geometric algorithms known as "slicers." The purpose of the slicer is to compute a parametric toolpath and associated commands, which direct an additive manufacturing system to produce a physical realization of a three-dimensional input model. Existing slicing algorithms operate by application of geometric transformations upon the input geometry in order to produce the toolpath. In this paper we introduce a new implicit slicing algorithm based on the computation of toolpaths derived from the level sets of arbitrary heuristics based or physics-based fields defined over the input geometry. This enables computationally efficient slicing of arbitrarily complex geometries in a straight forward fashion. Additionally, the calculation of component "infill" (as a process control parameter) is explored due to its crucial effect on functional performance fields of interest such as strain and stress distributions. Several examples of the application of the proposed implicit slicer are presented. Finally, an example demonstrating improved structural performance during physical testing is presented. We conclude with remarks regarding the strengths of the implicit approach relative to existing explicit approaches, and discuss future work required in order to extend the methodology.

AB This paper presents a constitutive model, which combines the models proposed by Stewart and Cazacu (2011) and Zhou et al. (2014), to describe the ductile damage process in a commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) and to simulate its mechanical response. In particular, a Gurson-type porous material model is modified by coupling two damage parameters, accounting for the void damage and the shear damage respectively, into the yield function and the flow potential. The plastic anisotropy and tension-compression asymmetry exhibited by CP Ti are accounted for by a plasticity model based on the linear transformation of the stress deviator. The theoretical model is implemented in the general purpose finite element software ABAQUS via a user defined subroutine and calibrated using experimental data. Good comparisons are observed between model predictions and experimental results for a series of specimens in different orientations and experiencing a wide range of stress states.

AB The paper presents an analysis on the output current ripple in zero common-mode voltage (ZCMV) PWM control of multilevel inverters. The modulation strategy for common-mode voltage (CMV) elimination in multilevel inverters is based on the "three zero common-mode vectors" principle. The space vector diagram, which consists of vectors of ZCMV, is fully explored by properly depicting the base voltage vectors and their corresponding active switching vectors. The switching patterns are limited to those of three switching states each of which is symmetrically distributed. Based on the PWM process simplified to that of a two-level inverter with three allowable switching states and the degree of freedom existing in the switching states arrangement, a novel carrier-based pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) method with optimized output current ripple is proposed. Compared to the existing PWM methods which utilize the same kind of switching patterns, the proposed PWM method has reduced considerably the rms current ripple and total harmonic distortion (THD) of the output current in a wide region of the modulation index. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated by both simulation and experimental results.

AB The analysis by atom probe tomography (APT) of InAlAsSb layers with applications in triple junction solar cells (TJSCs) has shown the existence of In- and Sb-rich regions in the material. The composition variation found is not evident from the direct observation of the 3D atomic distribution and because of this a statistical analysis has been required. From previous analysis of these samples, it is shown that the small compositional fluctuations determined have a strong effect on the optical properties of the material and ultimately on the performance of TJSCs.

AB The Curiosity rover observed high Mn abundances (>25wt % MnO) in fracture-filling materials that crosscut sandstones in the Kimberley region of Gale crater, Mars. The correlation between Mn and trace metal abundances plus the lack of correlation between Mn and elements such as S, Cl, and C, reveals that these deposits are Mn oxides rather than evaporites or other salts. On Earth, environments that concentrate Mn and deposit Mn minerals require water and highly oxidizing conditions; hence, these findings suggest that similar processes occurred on Mars. Based on the strong association between Mn-oxide deposition and evolving atmospheric dioxygen levels on Earth, the presence of these Mn phases on Mars suggests that there was more abundant molecular oxygen within the atmosphere and some groundwaters of ancient Mars than in the present day.

AB We present measurements of the near side of triggered di-hadron correlations using neutral strange baryons ( A, (A) over bar) and mesons (K-s(0)) at intermediate transverse momentum ( 3 < p(T) < 6 GeV/c) to look for possible flavor and baryon-meson dependence. This study is performed in d+Au, Cu+Cu, and Au+Au collisions at root S-NN = 200 GeV measured by the STAR experiment at RHIC. The near-side di-hadron correlation contains two structures, a peak which is narrow in azimuth and pseudorapidity consistent with correlations from jet fragmentation, and a correlation in azimuth which is broad in pseudorapidity. The particle composition of the jet-like correlation is determined using identified associated particles. The dependence of the conditional yield of the jet-like correlation on the trigger particle momentum, associated particle momentum, and centrality for correlations with unidentified trigger particles are presented. The neutral strange particle composition in jet-like correlations with unidentified charged particle triggers is not well described by PYTHIA. However, the yield of unidentified particles in jet-like correlations with neutral strange particle triggers is described reasonably well by the same model.

ID DESIGN; BAND; SURFACES
AB An efficient, general optimized method is outlined that achieves antireflective tapers using lossless, non-dispersive dielectrics. The method modifies the derivative of a perfect antireflective wave amplitude distribution rather than the index of refraction distribution. Modifying the derivative of the wave amplitude distribution minimizes the potential index of refraction distributions and ensures perfect antireflection at one frequency, incidence angle, and linear polarization combination. Additional combinations of frequency, incident angle, and linear polarization can be targeted at a particular reflection coefficient within the optimization. After the method is outlined, three examples are shown with one being fabricated and validated at radiofrequencies. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America

TI Assessing Progress, Impact, and Next Steps in Rolling Out Voluntary
Medical Male Circumcision for HIV Prevention in 14 Priority Countries in
Eastern and Southern Africa through 2014
SO PLOS ONE
LA English
DT Article
ID COSTS
AB Background
In 2007, the World Health Organization and the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) identified 14 priority countries across eastern and southern Africa for scaling up voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) services. Several years into this effort, we reflect on progress.
Methods
Using the Decision Makers' Program Planning Tool (DMPPT) 2.1, we assessed age-specific impact, cost-effectiveness, and coverage attributable to circumcisions performed through 2014. We also compared impact of actual progress to that of achieving 80% coverage among men ages 15-49 in 12 VMMC priority countries and Nyanza Province, Kenya. We populated the models with age-disaggregated VMMC service statistics and with population, mortality, and HIV incidence and prevalence projections exported from country-specific Spectrum/Goals files. We assumed each country achieved UNAIDS' 90-90-90 treatment targets.
Results
More than 9 million VMMCs were conducted through 2014: 43% of the estimated 20.9 million VMMCs required to reach 80% coverage by the end of 2015. The model assumed each country reaches the UNAIDS targets, and projected that VMMCs conducted through 2014 will avert 240,000 infections by the end of 2025, compared to 1.1 million if each country had reached 80% coverage by the end of 2015. The median estimated cost per HIV infection averted was $4,400. Nyanza Province in Kenya, the 11 priority regions in Tanzania, and Uganda have reached or are approaching MC coverage targets among males ages 15-24, while coverage in other age groups is lower. Across all countries modeled, more than half of the projected HIV infections averted were attributable to circumcising 10- to 19-year-olds.
Conclusions
The priority countries have made considerable progress in VMMC scale-up, and VMMC remains a cost-effective strategy for epidemic impact, even assuming near-universal HIV diagnosis, treatment coverage, and viral suppression. Examining circumcision coverage by five-year age groups will inform countries' decisions about next steps.

TI Enhanced Electrical Transport in Carbon Nanotube Thin Films through
Defect Modulation
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY C
LA English
DT Article
ID RAMAN-SPECTROSCOPY; GRAPHENE; BUNDLES; PURIFICATION; TRANSISTORS
AB The electrical properties of single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) thin films were enhanced through defect introduction and subsequent thermal annealing in forming gas. The defect density in the SWCNT thin films was modulated using ion irradiation with 150 keV B-11(+) over the fluence range of 1 X 10(13) and 1 X 10(15) ions/cm(2). Following thermal annealing at 1000 degrees C in forming gas, partial recovery in the optical absorbance and Raman spectra is observed at all fluences studied, with 100% recovery observed in samples exposed to a fluence less than 5 X 10(13) ions/cm(2). By comparison, annealing yields near complete recovery of the electrical conductivity at all fluences studied (up to 1 X 10(15) ions/cm(2)). Remarkably, radiation exposure up to a fluence of 1 X 10(14) ions/cm(2) followed by thermal annealing improves the electrical conductivity, exceeding the as-purified value by as much as similar to 4X. These results implicate the origin of the enhanced SWCNT network conductance with the formation of transport-enhancing inter-SWCNT bridges that decrease inter-SWCNT junction resistance, thereby enhancing the overall network connectivity.

TI Bio-Inspired Miniature Direction Finding Acoustic Sensor
SO SCIENTIFIC REPORTS
LA English
DT Article
ID FLY ORMIA-OCHRACEA; MICROPHONE; DIAPHRAGMS; HEARING; EARS
AB A narrowband MEMS direction finding sensor has been developed based on the mechanically coupled ears of the Ormia Ochracea fly. The sensor consists of two wings coupled at the middle and attached to a substrate using two legs. The sensor operates at its bending resonance frequency and has cosine directional characteristics similar to that of a pressure gradient microphone. Thus, the directional response of the sensor is symmetric about the normal axis making the determination of the direction ambiguous. To overcome this shortcoming two sensors were assembled with a canted angle similar to that employed in radar bearing locators. The outputs of two sensors were processed together allowing direction finding with no requirement of knowing the incident sound pressure level. At the bending resonant frequency of the sensors (1.69 kHz) an output voltage of about 25 V/Pa was measured. The angle uncertainty of the bearing of sound ranged from less than 0.3 degrees close to the normal axis (0 degrees) to 3.4 degrees at the limits of coverage (+/- 60 degrees) based on the 30 degrees canted angle used. These findings indicate the great potential to use dual MEMS direction finding sensor assemblies to locate sound sources with high accuracy.

TI FERMI LARGE AREA TELESCOPE DETECTION OF EXTENDED GAMMA-RAY EMISSION FROM

AB We report the Fermi Large Area Telescope detection of extended gamma-ray emission from the lobes of the radio galaxy Fornax. A using 6.1 years of Pass. 8 data. After Centaurus. A, this is now the second example of an extended gamma-ray source attributed to a radio galaxy. Both an extended flat disk morphology and a morphology following the extended radio lobes were preferred over a point-source description, and the core contribution was constrained to be < 14% of the total gamma-ray flux. A preferred alignment of the gamma-ray elongation with the radio lobes was demonstrated by rotating the radio lobes template. We found no significant evidence for variability on similar to 0.5 year timescales. Taken together, these results strongly suggest a lobe origin for the gamma-rays. With the extended nature of the > 100 MeV gamma-ray emission established, we model the source broadband emission considering currently available total lobe radio and millimeter flux measurements, as well as X-ray detections attributed to inverse Compton (IC) emission off the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Unlike the Centaurus. A case, we find that a leptonic model involving IC scattering of CMB and extragalactic background light (EBL) photons underpredicts the gamma-ray fluxes by factors of about similar to 2-3, depending on the EBL model adopted. An additional gamma-ray spectral component is thus required, and could be due to hadronic emission arising from proton-proton collisions of cosmic rays with thermal plasma within the radio lobes.

AB PSR J1024-0719 is a millisecond pulsar that was long thought to be isolated. However, puzzling results concerning its velocity, distance, and low rotational period derivative have led to a reexamination of its properties. We present updated radio timing observations along with new and archival optical data which show that PSR J1024-0719 is most likely in a long-period (2-20 kyr) binary system with a low-mass (approximate to 0.4 M-circle dot), low-metallicity (Z approximate to -0.9 dex) main-sequence star. Such a system can explain most of the anomalous properties of this pulsar. We suggest that this system formed through a dynamical exchange in a globular cluster that ejected it into a halo orbit, which is consistent with the low observed metallicity for the stellar companion. Further astrometric and radio timing observations such as measurement of the third period derivative could strongly constrain the range of orbital parameters.

AB A commercial secondary ion mass spectrometer (SIMS) was coupled to a 300 kV single-stage accelerator mass spectrometer (SSAMS). Positive secondary ions generated with the SIMS were injected into the SSAMS for analysis. This combined instrument was used to measure the uranium isotopic ratios in particles of three certified reference materials (CRM) of uranium, CRM U030a, CRM U500, and CRM U850. The ability to inject positive ions into the SSAMS is unique for ANIS systems and allows for simple analysis of nearly the entire periodic table because most elements will readily produce positive ions. Isotopic ratios were measured on samples of a few picograms to nanograms of total U. Destruction of UH+ ions in the stripper tube of the SSAMS reduced hydride levels by a factor of similar to 3 x 10(4) giving the UH+/U+ ratio at the SSAMS detector of similar to 1.4 X 10(-8). These hydride ion levels would allow the measurement of Pu-239 at the 10 ppb level in the presence of U and the equivalent of similar to 10(-10) U-236 concentration in natural uranium. SIMS-SSAMS analysis of solid nuclear materials, such as these, with signals nearly free of molecular interferences, could have a significant future impact on the way some measurements are made for nuclear nonproliferation.

AB Background: Factors, such as age, comorbidities, vaccine type, herd immunity, previous influenza exposure, and antigenic shift may impact the immune response to the influenza vaccine, protection against circulating strains, and antibody waning. Evaluating vaccine effectiveness (VE) is important for informing timing of vaccine administration and evaluating overall vaccine benefit.
Methods: VE was assessed using febrile respiratory illness surveillance among Department of Defense non active duty beneficiaries from influenza seasons 2010-2011 through 2013-2014. Respiratory specimens were taken from participants meeting the case definition and tested by polymerase chain reaction for influenza. VE was calculated using logistic regression and by taking 1 minus the odds ratio of being vaccinated in the laboratory confirmed positive influenza cases versus laboratory confirmed negative controls.
Results: This study included 1486 participants. We found an overall adjusted VE that provided significant and fairly consistent protection ranging from 54% to 67% during 0-180 days postvaccination. This VE dropped to -11% (95% confidence interval: -102% to 39%) during 181-365 days.
Conclusions: Our study found moderate VE up to 6 months postvaccination. Since the influenza season starts at different times each year, optimal timing is difficult to predict. Consequently, early influenza vaccination may still offer the best overall protection. (C) 2016 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Several new energetic ethyl ethers of 1,2,4,5-tetrazine have been synthesized. These molecules display good thermal stability, good oxygen balance, and high densities. Included in these studies are a 2,2,2-trinitroethoxy 1,2,4,5-tetrazine and two fluorodinitroethoxy 1,2,4,5-tetrazines. One of these compounds was converted into the di-N-oxide derivative. The sensitivity of these materials towards destructive stimuli was determined, and overall the materials show promising energetic performance properties.

ID IRRADIATION-INDUCED DEGRADATION; RECOMBINATION; PHOTODIODES
AB Radiation tolerance is a critical performance criterion of photovoltaic devices for space power applications. In this paper we demonstrate the intrinsic radiation tolerance of an ultra-thin solar cell geometry. Device characteristics of GaAs solar cells with absorber layer thicknesses 80 nm and 800 nm were compared before and after 3MeV proton irradiation. Both cells showed a similar degradation in V-oc with increasing fluence; however, the 80 nm cell showed no degradation in I-sc for fluences up to 10(14) p(+) cm(-2). For the same exposure, the I-sc of the 800 nm cell had severely degraded leaving a remaining factor of 0.26.

AB The first synthetic manganese tetrazene complexes are described as a redox pair comprising anionic [Mn(N(4)Ad(2))(2)](-) (1) and neutral Mn(N(4)Ad(2))(2) (2) complexes (N(4)Ad(2)=[Ad-N-N=N-N-Ad](2-)). Compound 1 is obtained in two forms as lithium salts, one as a cationic Li2Mn cluster, and one as a Mn-Li 1D ionic polymer. Compound 1 is electronically described as a Mn-III center with two [N(4)Ad(2)](2-) ligands. The one-electron oxidized 2 is crystalized in two morphologies, one as pure 2 and one as an acetonitrile adduct. Despite similar composition, the behavior of 2 differs in the two morphologies. Compound 2-MeCN is relatively air and temperature stable. Crystalline 2, on the other hand, exhibits a compositional, dynamic disorder wherein the tetrazene metallacycle ring-opens into a metal imide/azide complex detectable by X-ray crystallography and FTIR spectroscopy. Electronic structure of 2 was examined by EPR and XPS spectroscopies and DFT calculations, which indicate 2 is best described as a Mn-III ion with an anion radical delocalized across the two ligands through spin-polarization effects.

AB Theory and past observations have provided evidence that atmospheric tides and other global-scale waves interact nonlinearly to produce additional secondary waves throughout the space-atmosphere interaction region. However, few studies have investigated the generation region of nonlinearly generated secondary waves, and as a result, the manifestation and impacts of these waves are still poorly understood. This study focuses on the nonlinear interaction between the quasi 2day wave (2dayW3) and the migrating diurnal tide (DW1), two of the largest global-scale waves in the atmosphere. The fundamental goals of this effort are to characterize the forcing region of the secondary waves and to understand how it relates to their manifestation on a global scale. First, the Fast Fourier Synoptic Mapping method is applied to Thermosphere Ionosphere Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics-Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry satellite observations to provide new evidence of secondary waves. These results show that secondary waves are only significant above 80km. The nonlinear forcing for each secondary wave is then computed by extracting short-term primary wave information from a reanalysis model. The estimated nonlinear forcing quantities are used to force a linearized tidal model in order to calculate numerical secondary wave responses. Model results show that the secondary waves are significant from the upper mesosphere to the middle thermosphere, highlighting the implications for the atmosphere-space weather coupling. The study also concludes that the secondary wave response is most sensitive to the nonlinear forcing occurring in the lower and middle mesosphere and not coincident with the regions of strongest nonlinear forcing.

SO IEEE SENSORS JOURNAL

DE Magnetoelectric; bending mode; equivalent magnetic noise
ID COMPOSITES
AB Bending-mode magnetostrictive-piezoelectric sensors clamped at its two extremities show promising results for an enhancement of its magnetic field sensitivity by using a phase modulation (PM) technique. In this operating mode, the sensor is excited by an external carrier at its bending resonant frequency. The results of such a magnetic field sensing by a magneto(elasto)electric bilayer when using a PM technique with a phase locked loop circuitry are presented. The aim of this method is to follow the phase shift at the bending resonant frequency of the sensor, which is proportional to the applied magnetic field for the small-signal regime. We obtained a magnetic sensitivity of similar to 1.5 kV/T and an equivalent magnetic noise level around 80 nT/root Hz at 2 Hz. These performances are presently limited by the noise from our electronics, suggesting that there is room for further improvements.

AB The effects of gamma irradiation on the dielectric and piezoelectric responses of Pb[Zr(0.5)2Ti(0.48)]O-3 (PZT) thin film stacks were investigated for structures with conductive oxide (IrO2) and metallic (Pt) top electrodes. The samples showed, generally, degradation of various key dielectric, ferroelectric, and electromechanical responses when exposed to 2.5 Mrad (Si) Co-60 gamma radiation. However, the low-field, relative dielectric permittivity, epsilon(r), remained largely unaffected by irradiation in samples with both types of electrodes. Samples with Pt top electrodes showed substantial degradation of the remanent polarization and overall piezoelectric response, as well as pinching of the polarization hysteresis curves and creation of multiple peaks in the permittivity-electric field curves post irradiation. The samples with oxide electrodes, however, were largely impervious to the same radiation dose, with less than 5% change in any of the functional characteristics. The results suggest a radiation-induced change in the defect population or defect energy in PZT with metallic top electrodes, which substantially affects motion of internal interfaces such as domain walls. Additionally, the differences observed for stacks with different electrode materials implicate the ferroelectric-electrode interface as either the predominant source of radiation-induced effects (Pt electrodes) or the site of healing for radiation-induced defects (IrO2 electrodes).

AB Unlike dilute experimental conditions under which biological molecules are typically characterized, the cell interior is crowded by macromolecules, which affects both the thermodynamics and kinetics of in vivo processes. Although the excluded-volume effects of macromolecular crowding are expected to cause compaction of unfolded and disordered proteins, the extent of this effect is uncertain. We use a coarse-grained model to represent proteins with varying sequence content and directly observe changes in chain dimensions in the presence of purely repulsive spherical crowders. We find that the extent of crowding-induced compaction is dependent not only on crowder size and concentration, but also on the properties of the protein itself. In fact, we observe a nonmonotonic trend between the dimensions of the polypeptide chain in bulk and the degree of compaction: the most extended chains experience up to 24% compaction, the most compact chains show virtually no change, and intermediate chains compress by up to 40% in size at a 40% crowder volume fraction. Free-volume theory combined with an impenetrable ellipsoidal representation of the chains predicts the crowding effects only for collapsed protein chains. An additional scaling factor, which can be easily computed from protein-crowder potential of mean force, corrects for the penetrability of extended chains and is sufficient to capture the observed nonmonotonic trend in compaction.

TI The importance of band tail recombination on current collection and
open-circuit voltage in CZTSSe solar cells
SO APPLIED PHYSICS LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
AB Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)(4) (CZTSSe) solar cells typically exhibit high short-circuit current density (J(sc)), but have reduced cell efficiencies relative to other thin film technologies due to a deficit in the open-circuit voltage (V-oc), which prevent these devices from becoming commercially competitive. Recent research has attributed the low V-oc in CZTSSe devices to small scale disorder that creates band tail states within the absorber band gap, but the physical processes responsible for this V-oc reduction have not been elucidated. In this paper, we show that carrier recombination through non-mobile band tail states has a strong voltage dependence and is a significant performance-limiting factor, and including these effects in simulation allows us to simultaneously explain the Voc deficit, reduced fill factor, and voltage-dependent quantum efficiency with a self-consistent set of material parameters. Comparisons of numerical simulations to measured data show that reasonable values for the band tail parameters (characteristic energy, capture rate) can account for the observed low V-oc, high J(sc), and voltage dependent collection efficiency. These results provide additional evidence that the presence of band tail states accounts for the low efficiencies of CZTSSe solar cells and further demonstrates that recombination through non-mobile band tail states is the dominant efficiency limiting mechanism.

AB The surface states of 3D topological insulators (TIs) exhibit a helical spin texture with spin locked at right angles with momentum. The chirality of this spin texture is expected to invert crossing the Dirac point, a property that has been experimentally observed by optical probes. Here, we directly determine the chirality below the Dirac point by electrically detecting spin-momentum locking in surface states of a p-type TI, Sb2Te3. A current flowing in the Sb2Te3 surface states generates a net spin polarization due to spin-momentum locking, which is electrically detected as a voltage on an Fe/Al2O3 tunnel barrier detector. Measurements of this voltage as a function of current direction and detector magnetization indicate that hole spin-momentum locking follows the right-hand rule, opposite that of electron, providing direct confirmation that the chirality is indeed inverted below Dirac point. The spin signal is linear with current, and exhibits a temperature dependence consistent with the semiconducting nature of the TI film and freeze-out of bulk conduction below 100 K. Our results demonstrate that the chirality of the helical spin texture of TI surface states can be determined electrically, an enabling step in the electrical manipulation of spins in next generation TI-based quantum devices.

AB The recurrent symbiotic nova V745 Sco exploded on 2014 February 6 and was observed on February 22 and 23 by the Chandra X-ray Observatory Transmission Grating Spectrometers. By that time the supersoft source phase had already ended, and Chandra spectra are consistent with emission from a hot, shock-heated circumstellar medium with temperatures exceeding 10(7) K. X-ray line profiles are more sharply peaked than expected for a spherically symmetric blast wave, with a full width at zero intensity of approximately 2400 km s(-1), an FWHM of 1200 +/- 30 km s(-1), and an average net blueshift of 165 +/- 10 km s(-1). The red wings of lines are increasingly absorbed toward longer wavelengths by material within the remnant. We conclude that the blast wave was sculpted by an aspherical circumstellar medium in which an equatorial density enhancement plays a role, as in earlier symbiotic nova explosions. Expansion of the dominant X-ray-emitting material is aligned close to the plane of the sky and is most consistent with an orbit seen close to face-on. Comparison of an analytical blast wave model with the X-ray spectra, Swift observations, and near-infrared line widths indicates that the explosion energy was approximately 10(43) erg and confirms an ejected mass of approximately 10(-7)M(circle dot). The total mass lost is an order of magnitude lower than the accreted mass required to have initiated the explosion, indicating that the white dwarf is gaining mass and is a Type Ia supernova progenitor candidate.

AB Hybrid simulations of a full-scale soft-story woodframe building specimen with various retrofits were carried out as part of the Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation Research project - NEES-Soft: seismic risk reduction for soft-story woodframe buildings. The test structure in the hybrid simulation was a three-story woodframe building that was divided into a numerical substructure of the first story with various retrofits and a full-scale physical substructure of the upper two stories. Four long-stroke actuators, two at the second floor and two at the roof diaphragm, were attached to the physical substructure to impose the simulated seismic responses including both translation and in-plane rotation. Challenges associated with this first implementation of a full-scale hybrid simulation on a woodframe building were identified. This paper presents the development and validation of a scalable and robust hybrid simulation controller for efficient test site deployment. The development consisted of three incremental validation phases ranging from small-scale, mid-scale, to full-scale tests conducted at three laboratories. Experimental setup, procedure, and results of each phase of the controller development are discussed, demonstrating the effectiveness and efficiency of the incremental controller development approach for large-scale hybrid simulation programs with complex test setup.

ID GAN; AIN
AB Initial electrical characterisation of epitaxial AlN/Nb2N heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy on 6H-SiC substrates is presented. Metal-insulator-metal (MIM) devices of varying diameter were used for current-voltage and capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements at various temperatures. From C-V measurements, a dielectric constant of 10.1 was extracted along with a linear dependence of capacitance on temperature of 0.02 nF/cm(2)/degrees C. Leakage current was determined to be consistent with a Poole-Frenkel conduction mechanism at electric fields >1.25 MV/cm with an extracted trap ionisation energy of 0.82 eV. Electric field breakdown ranged between 3.4 and 5.6 MV/cm with some dependence on the diameter of the MIM device. These initial findings demonstrate the potential for high-power devices based on AlN.

TI Electrically Induced Twist in Smectic Liquid-Crystalline Elastomers
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY B

DT Article
ID AC PHASE-CHANGE; CONTINUUM THEORY; FILMS
AB As an approach for electrically controllable actuators, we prepare elastomers of chiral smectic-A liquid crystals, which have an electroclinic effect, i.e., molecular tilt induced by an applied electric field. Surprisingly, our experiments find that an electric field causes a rapid and reversible twisting of the film out of the plane, with a helical sense that depends on the sign of the field. To explain this twist, we develop a continuum elastic theory based on an asymmetry between the front and back of the film. We further present finite-element simulations, which show the dynamic shape change.

TI Demonstration of Fuel Hot-Spot Pressure in Excess of 50 Gbar for
Direct-Drive, Layered Deuterium-Tritium Implosions on OMEGA
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English

ID NATIONAL IGNITION FACILITY; LASER; PERFORMANCE; DISPERSION; LIGHT
AB A record fuel hot-spot pressure P-hs = 56 +/- 7 Gbar was inferred from x-ray and nuclear diagnostics for direct-drive inertial confinement fusion cryogenic, layered deuterium-tritium implosions on the 60-beam, 30-kJ, 351-nm OMEGA Laser System. When hydrodynamically scaled to the energy of the National Ignition Facility, these implosions achieved a Lawson parameter similar to 60% of the value required for ignition [A. Bose et al., Phys. Rev. E 93, LM15119ER (2016)], similar to indirect-drive implosions [R. Betti et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 255003 (2015)], and nearly half of the direct-drive ignition-threshold pressure. Relative to symmetric, one-dimensional simulations, the inferred hot-spot pressure is approximately 40% lower. Three-dimensional simulations suggest that low-mode distortion of the hot spot seeded by laser-drive nonuniformity and target-positioning error reduces target performance.

TI Epidemic Extinction and Control in Heterogeneous Networks
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID COMPLEX NETWORKS; OPTIMAL PATHS
AB We consider epidemic extinction in finite networks with a broad variation in local connectivity. Generalizing the theory of large fluctuations to random networks with a given degree distribution, we are able to predict the most probable, or optimal, paths to extinction in various configurations, including truncated power laws. We find that paths for heterogeneous networks follow a limiting form in which infection first decreases in low-degree nodes, which triggers a rapid extinction in high-degree nodes, and finishes with a residual low-degree extinction. The usefulness of our approach is further demonstrated through optimal control strategies that leverage the dependence of finite-size fluctuations on network topology. Interestingly, we find that the optimal control is a mix of treating both high-and low-degree nodes based on theoretical predictions, in contrast to methods that ignore dynamical fluctuations.

AB Quantum-confined 1D semiconductor nanostructures are being investigated for hydrogen generation photocatalysts. In the photoreaction, after fast electron transfer, holes that remain in the nanostructure play an important role in the total quantum yield of hydrogen production. Unfortunately, knowledge of hole dynamics is limited due to lack of convenient spectroscopic signatures. Here, we directly probe hole localization dynamics within CdSe nanorods (NRs) by combining transient absorption (TA) and time-resolved terahertz (TRTS) spectroscopy. We show that when methylene blue is used as an electron acceptor, the resulting electron transfer occurs with a time constant of 3.5 +/- 0.1 ps and leaves behind a delocalized hole. However, the hole quickly localizes in the Coulomb potential well generated by the reduced electron acceptor near the NR surface with time constant of 11.7 +/- 0.2 ps. Our theoretical investigation suggests that the hole becomes confined to a similar to +/- 0.8 nm region near the reduced electron acceptor and the activation energy to detrap the hole from the potential well can be as large as 235 meV.

AB Objectives: We assessed the prevalence of, and association among, musculoskeletal (MSK) symptoms, reported sleep, daytime alertness, fatigue, and consumption of caffeinated beverages. Methods: Crewmembers of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier (N = 767) completed a survey pertaining to demographics, exercise frequency, sleep duration, caffeinated beverages consumption, daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and MSK symptoms occurrence. Results: Participants reported 6.12 hours of sleep per day while at sea, 31.8% reported increased daytime sleepiness, whereas 9% reported elevated fatigue levels. The 12-month prevalence of MSK symptoms was 57.5%, and the 7-day prevalence was 44.4%. Approximately 20% reported that MSK symptoms prevented them from carrying out normal activities. The lower back (39.5%) and knees (33.6%) were the two body parts most frequently reported for MSK symptoms. Symptoms in lower back, knees, and ankles/feet had an increased impact on preventing crewmembers from carrying out daily activities. Symptomatic crewmembers were more likely to report elevated daytime sleepiness, increased fatigue level, shorter nighttime sleep duration, and consume more caffeinated beverages. Conclusion: MSK symptoms were frequent and frequently prevented crewmembers from carrying out their daily activities. From an occupational health perspective, interventions to optimize sleep hygiene in the naval environment should also address the impact of MSK symptoms as a confounding factor.

AB Attitudes about suicide are important to examine among individuals within a specific setting, profession, and/or culture; if found to be condemnatory, such attitudes can be effectively modified with training. The Suicide Opinion Questionnaire (SOQ) is one of the most commonly used instruments for the measurement of attitudes toward suicide. The SOQ has not been tested in military populations and the measure has demonstrated multiple different factor structures across various studies performed on civilian samples. The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) to gain an understanding of the applicability and utility of the SOQ for the military; and (2) to examine the relationship among sex, education, prior exposure to suicide within one's military unit, and suicide opinions. A total of 1,758 Marine Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs) completed the SOQ as part of a suicide program evaluation study. Results demonstrated a 4-component structure for the SOQ, accounting for approximately 30% of the total variance. Sex, education, and prior exposure to suicide within one's military unit were significantly related to suicide opinions. Recommendations are made for the development and empirical evaluation of a new and/or adapted, culturally sensitive suicide attitude measure for the military.

AB For digital imagery, face detection and identification are functions of great importance in wide-ranging applications, including full facial recognition systems. The development and evaluation of unique and existing face detection and face identification applications require a significant amount of data. Increased availability of such data volumes could benefit the formulation and advancement of many biometric algorithms. Here, the utility of using synthetically generated face data to evaluate facial biometry methodologies to a precision that would be unrealistic for a parametrically uncontrolled dataset, is demonstrated. Particular attention is given to similarity metrics, symmetry within and between recognition algorithms, discriminatory power and optimality of pan and/or tilt in reference images or libraries, susceptibilities to variations, identification confidence, meaningful identification mislabelings, sensitivity, specificity, and threshold values. The face identification results, in particular, could be generalized to address shortcomings in various applications and help to inform the design of future strategies. (C) 2016 SPIE and IS&T

AB We demonstrate a method for the preparation of fully solution processed inorganic solar cells from a spin and spray coating deposition of nanocrystal inks. For the photoactive absorber layer, colloidal CdTe and CdSe nanocrystals (3-5 nm) are synthesized using an inert hot injection technique and cleaned with precipitations to remove excess starting reagents. Similarly, gold nanocrystals (3-5 nm) are synthesized under ambient conditions and dissolved in organic solvents. In addition, precursor solutions for transparent conductive indium tin oxide (ITO) films are prepared from solutions of indium and tin salts paired with a reactive oxidizer. Layer-by-layer, these solutions are deposited onto a glass substrate following annealing (200-400 degrees C) to build the nanocrystal solar cell (glass/ITO/CdSe/CdTe/Au). Pre-annealing ligand exchange is required for CdSe and CdTe nanocrystals where films are dipped in NH4Cl: methanol to replace long-chain native ligands with small inorganic Cl-anions. NH4Cl(s) was found to act as a catalyst for the sintering reaction (as a non-toxic alternative to the conventional CdCl2(s) treatment) leading to grain growth (136 +/- 39 nm) during heating. The thickness and roughness of the prepared films are characterized with SEM and optical profilometry. FTIR is used to determine the degree of ligand exchange prior to sintering, and XRD is used to verify the crystallinity and phase of each material. UV/Vis spectra show high visible light transmission through the ITO layer and a red shift in the absorbance of the cadmium chalcogenide nanocrystals after thermal annealing. Current-voltage curves of completed devices are measured under simulated one sun illumination. Small differences in deposition techniques and reagents employed during ligand exchange have been shown to have a profound influence on the device properties. Here, we examine the effects of chemical (sintering and ligand exchange agents) and physical treatments (solution concentration, spray-pressure, annealing time and annealing temperature) on photovoltaic device performance.

AB Objective. This study evaluated the efficacy of IV cosyntropin as an alternative to epidural blood patch (EBP) for refractory or severe post- dural puncture headache (PDPH).
Methods. Twenty-eight patients were randomized to receive EBP or intravenous cosyntropin after diagnosis with post-dural puncture headache. Efficacy was evaluated immediately after treatment and at 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days following treatment using self-reported verbal reported scores for pain and function related to their headache on a 10-point scale using two-way repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) with multiple comparisons.
Results. Baseline information for the control and study cohorts showed no difference based on intent to treat analysis. EBP showed significant improvement over cosyntropin at day 1 (P < 0.001) for VRS pain and function scores; however, cosyntropin demonstrated similar efficacy to EBP immediately after treatment and days 3 and 7 post treatment (respectively, P = 0.459, P = 0.391 and 0.925 for pain and P = 0.189 and 0.478 for function). Treatment effects remained at day 1 after multivariate analysis (P < 0.001 and P = 0.002 for pain and function, respectively).
Conclusions. It is reasonable to consider IV cosyntropin as the treatment of choice for patients in whom EBP is contraindicated or in austere environments where there is limited or no access to anesthesia trained providers. Future research should compare efficacy and cost of prophylaxis to treatment of PDPH with intravenous cosyntropin and evaluate the most effective dosing regimen, including duration, number, and strength of doses.

AB A case-study is presented of a tropical low that formed near Darwin, Australia, during the monsoon and subsequently intensified over land. The study is based on European Centre for Medium-rangeWeather Forecast (ECMWF) analyses. Interpretations of the formation over the sea are given in terms of vorticity dynamics. The thermodynamic support for the intensification and maintenance of the low over land is investigated also. The analyses indicate that the intensification of the low depends on repeated bursts of deep convection occurring near the centre of the circulation that promote the further concentration of vorticity near the centre. This concentration of vorticity increases the local circulation about the centre, which amounts to increasing the local tangential wind speed and, through approximate gradient wind balance above the boundary layer, to a lowering of the central pressure. It is found that the horizontal transport of moisture into a mesoscale column centred on the low is approximately equal to the moisture lost by precipitation, so that total precipitable water levels are not rapidly depleted over land. While the contribution to the overall moisture budget by surface fluxes is comparatively small, these fluxes are necessary to maintain conditionally unstable conditions near the vortex centre so that deep convective bursts can continue to occur there, even when the system is located far inland.

AB This Supplement provides supporting material for Abbott et al. (2016a). We briefly summarize past electromagnetic (EM) follow-up efforts as well as the organization and policy of the current EM follow-up program. We compare the four probability sky maps produced for the gravitational-wave transient GW150914, and provide additional details of the EM follow-up observations that were performed in the different bands.

AB We provide guidance for monitoring whether human activities affect the physiology or behavior of marine mammals and, if so, whether those effects may lead to changes in survival and reproduction at the population level. We suggest that four elements be included in designing and implementing such a monitoring program. The first is development of a theory of change: a set of mechanistic hypotheses that outline why a given activity might be expected to have one or more measurable effects on individuals and populations, and ideally the magnitude, timing, and duration of the effects. The second element, definition of biologically meaningful effect sizes, ultimately facilitates the development of a monitoring program that can detect those magnitudes of effect with the desired levels of precision. The third element, selection of response variables for monitoring, allows inference to whether observed changes in the status of individuals or populations are attributable to a given activity. Visual observations, passive acoustic and tagging instruments, and direct physical measurements all can provide data that facilitate quantitative hypothesis testing. The fourth element is specification of the temporal sequence of monitoring. These elements also can be used to inform monitoring of the responses of other taxonomic groups to human activities.

AB A coupled bio-physical ocean model is used to describe areas of enhanced phytoplankton biomass, seen in remotely sensed observations, in the otherwise oligotrophic environment of the Bay of Bengal. The model is based on the Naval Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM), which is one-way coupled to the 13-component Carbon, Silicate, and Nitrogen Ecosystem (CoSiNE) model and configured for the Indian Ocean. Model results are compared and evaluated against a set of in situ shipboard observations as well as ocean color data acquired from several remote sensing platforms. The model is shown to successfully simulate the seasonal cycle of phytoplankton, the markedly contrasting scenarios of phytoplankton distribution in the north versus the south Bay of Bengal, and the biological impact from the 1997/1998 Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) event. The model simulation provides us with vertical cross sections of phytoplankton biomass from summer and winter blooms in the southwest of the bay, information not found in remotely sensed data. It also successfully reproduces the timing of the onset of the blooms and their spatial extent, thereby providing a measure of its potential for augmenting in situ and remotely sensed observations to improve understanding of the dynamics of primary producers and carbon cycling in one of the most poorly sampled regions of the world's oceans.

AB We present two separate time series of the near-Earth heliospheric magnetic field strength (B) based on geomagnetic data and sunspot number (SSN). The geomagnetic-based B series from 1845 to 2013 is a weighted composite of two series that employ the interdiurnal variability index; this series is highly correlated with in situ spacecraft measurements of B (correlation coefficient, r=0.94; mean square error, MSE=0.16nT(2)). The SSN-based estimate of B, from 1750 to 2013, is a weighted composite of eight time series derived from two separate reconstruction methods applied to four different SSN time series, allowing determination of the uncertainty from both the underlying sunspot records and the B reconstruction methods. The SSN-based composite is highly correlated with direct spacecraft measurements of B and with the composite geomagnetic B time series from 1845 to 2013 (r=0.91; MSE=0.24nT(2)), demonstrating that B can accurately reconstructed by both geomagnetic and sunspot-based methods. The composite sunspot and geomagnetic B time series, with uncertainties, are provided as supporting information.

AB This is Part 2 of a study of the near-Earth heliospheric magnetic field strength, B, since 1750. Part 1 produced composite estimates of B from geomagnetic and sunspot data over the period 1750-2013. Sunspot-based reconstructions can be extended back to 1610, but the paleocosmic ray (PCR) record is the only data set capable of providing a record of solar activity on millennial timescales. The process for converting Be-10 concentrations measured in ice cores to B is more complex than with geomagnetic and sunspot data, and the uncertainties in B derived from cosmogenic nuclides (similar to 20% for any individual year) are much larger. Within this level of uncertainty, we find reasonable overall agreement between PCR-based B and the geomagnetic- and sunspot number-based series. This agreement was enhanced by excising low values in PCR-based B attributed to high-energy solar proton events. Other discordant intervals, with as yet unspecified causes remain included in our analysis. Comparison of 3year averages centered on sunspot minimum yields reasonable agreement between the three estimates, providing a means to investigate the long-term changes in the heliospheric magnetic field into the past even without a means to remove solar proton events from the records.

AB Satellite drag data showing significant (20%) short-term variations in atmospheric mass density are presented. These data, along with the Naval Research Laboratory SAMI3 (Sami3 is Also a Model of the Ionosphere) ionosphere/plasmasphere model and the WACCM (Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model) atmosphere model are used to estimate day-to-day variability in thermosphere composition, thermosphere winds, and exosphere temperatures and the effect of this variability on plasmasphere refilling rates. This assessment is guided by SAMI3 modeling showing that modest (20%) decreases in thermospheric density and exospheric temperature can lead to large (60%) increases in plasmaspheric refilling rates and that changes in the thermospheric wind pattern can have a similar effect. Results suggest that day-to-day variability in thermospheric wind and composition could affect plasmaspheric refilling rates by 50 to 100%.

AB A comparison of different model simulations of the ionosphere variability during the 2009 sudden stratosphere warming (SSW) is presented. The focus is on the equatorial and low-latitude ionosphere simulated by the Ground-to-topside model of the Atmosphere and Ionosphere for Aeronomy (GAIA), Whole Atmosphere Model plus Global Ionosphere Plasmasphere (WAM+GIP), and Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model eXtended version plus Thermosphere-Ionosphere-Mesosphere-Electrodynamics General Circulation Model (WACCMX+TIMEGCM). The simulations are compared with observations of the equatorial vertical plasma drift in the American and Indian longitude sectors, zonal mean Fregion peak density (NmF2) from the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and Climate (COSMIC) satellites, and ground-based Global Positioning System (GPS) total electron content (TEC) at 75 degrees W. The model simulations all reproduce the observed morning enhancement and afternoon decrease in the vertical plasma drift, as well as the progression of the anomalies toward later local times over the course of several days. However, notable discrepancies among the simulations are seen in terms of the magnitude of the drift perturbations, and rate of the local time shift. Comparison of the electron densities further reveals that although many of the broad features of the ionosphere variability are captured by the simulations, there are significant differences among the different model simulations, as well as between the simulations and observations. Additional simulations are performed where the neutral atmospheres from four different whole atmosphere models (GAIA, HAMMONIA (Hamburg Model of the Neutral and Ionized Atmosphere), WAM, and WACCMX) provide the lower atmospheric forcing in the TIME-GCM. These simulations demonstrate that different neutral atmospheres, in particular, differences in the solar migrating semidiurnal tide, are partly responsible for the differences in the simulated ionosphere variability in GAIA, WAM+GIP, and WACCMX+TIMEGCM.

AB We describe a method to fabricate electrodes modified with high-aspect ratio (HAR) palladium (Pd) nanorods derived from the electrochemical reduction of Pd salts in polycarbonate track-etched membranes. The HAR Pd nanorod-modified electrode platform enables direct spectroscopic observation of electrochemical processes particular to HAR forms of nano-Pd using Raman spectroelectrochemistry. In the present study, we use this platform to observe an anomalous mechanism of oxidative electrochemical desorption of the probe molecule benzenethiol (BT) from the HAR Pd surface. At HAR Pd, the Pd-S bond between the Pd nanorods and BT severs upon oxidation of the Pd surface, whereas on the surface of spherical nano-Pd, the C-S bond in BT is broken, as is more typically observed for sulfur-containing organic molecules adsorbed to Pd surfaces. Using this probe reaction, we demonstrate the suitability of this HAR nanorod-modified electrode platform for the investigation of anomalous electrochemical phenomena observed at HAR Pd for reactions that involve adsorbed intermediates in general-including not only adsorbed sulfur-but in principle also for the electrochemical oxidation of alternative fuels such as ethanol and methanol.

AB We present results of the new observations of artificial periodic irregularities (APIs) in the ionosphere using the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) heating facility carried out in late May and early June 2014.The objective of this work is to detect API using high-latitude facility and analyze possible differences of the temporal and spatial variations of the API echoes in the high (HAARP) and middle (Sura) latitudes. Irregularities were created by the powerful wave of X mode and were sounded using the short probing pulses signals of X mode. API echoes were observed in the D, E, and F regions of the ionosphere. Amplitudes and characteristic times of the API echoes were measured. The API growth and decay times at HAARP (high latitudes) observed were similar to those at the Sura heating facility (midlatitudes).

AB The enormous transmitter power, fully programmable antenna array, and agile frequency generation of the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facility in Alaska have allowed the production of unprecedented disturbances in the ionosphere. Using both pencil beams and conical (or twisted) beam transmissions, artificial ionization clouds have been generated near the second, third, fourth, and sixth harmonics of the electron gyrofrequency. The conical beam has been used to sustain these clouds for up to 5h as opposed to less than 30min durations produced using pencil beams. The largest density plasma clouds have been produced at the highest harmonic transmissions. Satellite radio transmissions at 253MHz from the National Research Laboratory TACSat4 communications experiment have been severely disturbed by propagating through artificial plasma regions. The scintillation levels for UHF waves passing through artificial ionization clouds from HAARP are typically 16dB. This is much larger than previously reported scintillations at other HF facilities which have been limited to 3dB or less. The goals of future HAARP experiments should be to build on these discoveries to sustain plasma densities larger than that of the background ionosphere for use as ionospheric reflectors of radio signals.

AB We report on the features of the F region plasma perturbations during HF heating experiments at the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program facility in March-April 2011 and May-June 2014. The diagnostics included multifrequency Doppler (phase) sounding (MDS) and stimulated electromagnetic emission (SEE). The results concern modification of the electron density profile near the reflection and upper hybrid heights, as well as correlation of the density modification with temporal behavior of narrow continuum, downshifted maximum, and broad continuum SEE spectral features. We reveal also a new SEE spectral feature which appears in the SEE spectra for the pump frequency f(0) near the third and fourth electron gyroharmonics. It is located in the SEE spectrum well below the pump wave frequency, f-f(0)similar to-(40-220)kHz, occupies a wide frequency range till 100-150kHz, and is termed the broad downshifted emission.

AB One of the challenges for the utilization of HF radiowaves in practical applications is to understand how the signals propagate in time- and range-dependent multipath environments. For typical quiescent ionospheric conditions it is often reasonably straightforward to interpret received HF signals. For disturbed ionospheric conditions, however, such as in the presence of large tilts, irregularities, and medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbances (MSTIDs), data interpretation and utilization often becomes challenging. This paper presents a theoretical HF propagation modeling study that exploits the capabilities of a first principles, mesoscale resolution ionosphere code, SAMI3 (Sami3 is Another Model of the Ionosphere) and a new implementation of the 3-D ray trace equations, MoJo-15 (Modernized Jones Code) in order to examine the relationship between various HF propagation observables and MSTID characteristics. This paper demonstrates the implications of MSTIDS on high angle of incidence HF propagation during typical low-latitude, postsunset ionospheric conditions and examines the spatiotemporal evolution of multiple propagation paths that may connect a given source and receiver.

AB This study characterizes the evaporation and elevated ducts, the most common types of ducts observed over the ocean, along a track of around 4000km between the California coast and Hawaii. We analyzed 1year (2012-2013) of ship-based measurements made during the Marine Atmospheric Radiation Measurement GPCI (GEWEX cloud system study Pacific Cross-Section Intercomparison) Investigation of Clouds (MAGIC) campaign. During this period, the ship made multiple transects between Southern California and Hawaii. While the ship-based in situ measurements and the radiosonde data served as the primary data source, a marine atmospheric surface layer model adapted from the Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment 3.0 surface flux scheme is used to diagnose evaporative duct properties. Calculated mean evaporation duct heights based on shipboard measurements were found to increase steadily from 7m offshore California to about 15m near Hawaii. Overall 78% of duct heights are below 20m. On average the evaporation duct strength is between approximate to 25 and 35M units near Hawaii and about 15M units near the California coast. A gradual transition from stratocumulus (Sc) dominated offshore California to trade wind regime with cumulus (Cu) clouds takes place along MAGIC track. The measured marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) height and the capping inversion characteristics are significantly different in the two regimes with MABL decoupling occurring in the longitude range between 125 degrees W and 140 degrees W along the track. The characteristics of the elevated ducts, obtained from the rawinsonde sounding profiles, are also different in the two regions west and east of the MABL decoupling region. Approximately 70-80% of the elevated ducts occur below 1.5km east of the decoupling region, whereas almost equal percentage of ducts forms at heights above 1.5km on the west side.

AB Introduction: Unilateral leg swelling with suspicion of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a common emergency department (ED) presentation. Proximal DVT (thrombus in the popliteal or femoral veins) can usually be diagnosed and treated at the initial ED encounter. When proximal DVT has been ruled out, isolated calf-vein deep venous thrombosis (IC-DVT) often remains a consideration. The current standard for the diagnosis of IC-DVT is whole-leg vascular duplex ultrasonography (WLUS), a test that is unavailable in many hospitals outside normal business hours. When WLUS is not available from the ED, recommendations for managing suspected IC-DVT vary. The objectives of the study is to use current evidence and recommendations to (1) propose a diagnostic algorithm for IC-DVT when definitive testing (WLUS) is unavailable; and (2) summarize the controversy surrounding IC-DVT treatment.
Discussion: The Figure combines D-dimer testing with serial CUS or a single deferred FLUS for the diagnosis of IC-DVT. Such an algorithm has the potential to safely direct the management of suspected IC-DVT when definitive testing is unavailable. Whether or not to treat diagnosed IC-DVT remains widely debated and awaiting further evidence.
Conclusion: When IC-DVT is not ruled out in the ED, the suggested algorithm, although not prospectively validated by a controlled study, offers an approach to diagnosis that is consistent with current data and recommendations. When IC-DVT is diagnosed, current references suggest that a decision between anticoagulation and continued follow-up outpatient testing can be based on shared decision-making. The risks of proximal progression and life-threatening embolization should be balanced against the generally more benign natural history of such thrombi, and an individual patient's risk factors for both thrombus propagation and complications of anticoagulation.

AB Recently we discussed an enhancement of the abundance of Ar XIV relative to Ca XIV near a sunspot during a flare, observed in spectra recorded by the Extreme-ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on the Hinode spacecraft. The observed Ar XIV/Ca XIV ratio yields an argon/calcium abundance ratio seven times greater than expected from the photospheric abundance. Such a large abundance anomaly is unprecedented in the solar atmosphere. We interpreted this result as being due to an inverse first ionization potential (FIP) effect. In the published work, two lines of Ar XIV were observed, and one line was tentatively identified as an Ar XI line. In this paper, we report observing a similar enhancement in a full-CCD EIS flare spectrum in 13 argon lines that lie within the EIS wavelength ranges. The observed lines include two Ar XI lines, four Ar XIII lines, six Ar XIV lines, and one Ar XV line. The enhancement is far less than reported in Doschek et al. but exhibits similar morphology. The argon abundance is close to a photospheric abundance in the enhanced area, and the abundance could be photospheric. This enhancement occurs in association with a sunspot in a small area only a few arcseconds (1(n) = about 700 km) in size. There is no enhancement effect observed in the normally high-FIP sulfur and oxygen line ratios relative to lines of low-FIP elements available to EIS. Calculations of path lengths in the strongest enhanced area in Doschek et al. indicate a depletion of low-FIP elements.

AB It has been proposed that particles bouncing between magnetized flows converging in a reconnection region can be accelerated by the first-order Fermi mechanism. Analytical considerations of this mechanism have shown that the spectral index of accelerated particles is related to the total plasma compression within the reconnection region, similarly to the case of the diffusive shock acceleration mechanism. As a first step to investigate the efficiency of Fermi acceleration in reconnection regions in producing hard energy spectra of particles in the solar corona, we explore the degree of plasma compression that can be achieved at reconnection sites. In particular, we aim to determine the conditions for the strong compressions to form. Using a two-dimensional resistive MHD numerical model, we consider a set of magnetic field configurations where magnetic reconnection can occur, including a Harris current sheet, a force-free current sheet, and two merging flux ropes. Plasma parameters are taken to be characteristic of the solar corona. Numerical simulations show that strong plasma compressions (>= 4) in the reconnection regions can form when the plasma heating due to reconnection is efficiently removed by fast thermal conduction or the radiative cooling process. The radiative cooling process that is negligible in the typical 1MK corona can play an important role in the low corona/transition region. It is found that plasma compression is expected to be strongest in low-beta plasma beta similar to 0.01-0.07 at reconnection magnetic nulls.

TI Empirical Study of Router IPv6 Interface Address Distributions
SO IEEE INTERNET COMPUTING
LA English
DT Article
AB IPv6 is an important component of the Internet's continued growth and evolution. It has grown exponentially and now carries nontrivial amounts of production traffic. Less well-understood is IPv6's topology and the way in which providers are using their IPv6 address allocations. Rather than relying on passive measurements or heuristics, the authors use uniform active probing; executing ICMP-Paris traceroute probes to an address in each /48 in all /32's advertised in the global IPv6 routing table (approximately 400 million traces). At this granularity, they characterize the distribution of IPv6 interface addresses in the wild, and find significant differences among providers and regions.

AB This work derives the modeling and detection theory required to predict the performance of an infrared focal plane array in detecting point source targets. Specifically, we focus on modeling the uncertainty associated with the location of the point source on the array. In the process we derive several new expressions related to pixel-averaged detection performance under a variety of problem assumptions. The resulting predictions are compared to standard approaches where the location is assumed fixed and known. It is further shown how to incorporate these predictions, into multi-frame detection strategies. Published by Elsevier B.V.

RANGE; TIME; CHANNEL
AB Observations of the spread of wander-corrected averaged pulses propagated over 510 km for 54 h in the Philippine Sea are compared to Monte Carlo predictions using a parabolic equation and path-integral predictions. Two simultaneous m-sequence signals are used, one centered at 200 Hz, the other at 300 Hz; both have a bandwidth of 50 Hz. The internal wave field is estimated at slightly less than unity Garrett-Munk strength. The observed spreads in all the early ray-like arrivals are very small, <1ms (for pulse widths of 17 and 14 ms), which are on the order of the sampling period. Monte Carlo predictions show similar very small spreads. Pulse spread is one consequence of scattering, which is assumed to occur primarily at upper ocean depths where scattering processes are strongest and upward propagating rays refract downward. If scattering effects in early ray-like arrivals accumulate with increasing upper turning points, spread might show a similar dependence. Real and simulation results show no such dependence. Path-integral theory prediction of spread is accurate for the earliest ray-like arrivals, but appears to be increasingly biased high for later ray-like arrivals, which have more upper turning points.

MORPHOLOGY; NETWORK; EVENTS; SYSTEM
AB This work quantifies the physical characteristics of infrasound signal and noise, assesses their temporal variations, and determines the degree to which these effects can be predicted by time-varying atmospheric models to estimate array and network performance. An automated detector that accounts for both correlated and uncorrelated noise is applied to infrasound data from three seismo-acoustic arrays in South Korea (BRDAR, CHNAR, and KSGAR), cooperatively operated by Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources (KIGAM) and Southern Methodist University (SMU). Arrays located on an island and near the coast have higher noise power, consistent with both higher wind speeds and seasonably variable ocean wave contributions. On the basis of the adaptive F-detector quantification of time variable environmental effects, the time-dependent scaling variable is shown to be dependent on both weather conditions and local site effects. Significant seasonal variations in infrasound detections including daily time of occurrence, detection numbers, and phase velocity/azimuth estimates are documented. These time-dependent effects are strongly correlated with atmospheric winds and temperatures and are predicted by available atmospheric specifications. This suggests that commonly available atmospheric specifications can be used to predict both station and network detection performance, and an appropriate forward model improves location capabilities as a function of time.

TSUNAMI; FLUID; APPROXIMATION; TRANSMISSION
AB Acoustic-gravity waves (AGWs) in an inhomogeneous atmosphere often have caustics, where the ray theory predicts unphysical, divergent values of the wave amplitude and needs to be modified. Unlike acoustic waves and gravity waves in incompressible fluids, AGW fields in the vicinity of a caustic have never been systematically studied. Here, asymptotic expansions of acoustic gravity waves are derived in the presence of a turning point in a horizontally stratified, moving fluid such as the atmosphere. Sound speed and the background flow (wind) velocity are assumed to vary gradually with height, and slowness of these variations determines the large parameter of the problem. It is found that uniform asymptotic expansions of the wave field in the presence of a turning point can be expressed in terms of the Airy function and its derivative. The geometrical, or Berry, phase, which arises in the consistent Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin approximation for AGWs, plays an important role in the caustic asymptotics. In the dominant term of the uniform asymptotic solution, the terms with the Airy function and its derivative are weighted by the cosine and sine of the Berry phase, respectively. The physical meaning and corollaries of the asymptotic solutions are discussed.

AB Biosonar gain control mechanisms in a bottlenose dolphin were investigated by measuring the auditory steady-state response (ASSR) to an external tone while the animal echolocated. The dolphin performed an echo change-detection task that utilized electronically synthesized echoes with echo delays corresponding to 25- and 50-m target range. During the task, amplitude modulated tones with carrier frequencies from 25 to 125 kHz were continuously presented and the instantaneous electroencephalogram stored for later analysis. ASSRs were extracted from the electroencephalogram by synchronously averaging time epochs temporally aligned with the onset of the external tone modulation cycle nearest to each of the dolphin's echolocation clicks. Results showed an overall suppression of the ASSR amplitude for tones with frequencies near the click center frequencies. A larger, temporary suppression of the ASSR amplitude was also measured at frequencies above 40-50 kHz, while a temporary enhancement was observed at lower frequencies. Temporal patterns for ASSR enhancement or suppression were frequency-, level-, and range-dependent, with recovery to pre-click values occurring within the two-way travel time. Suppressive effects fit the patterns expected from forward masking by the emitted biosonar pulse, while the specific mechanisms responsible for the frequency-dependent enhancement are unknown.

AB Testing the hearing abilities of marine mammals under water is a challenging task. Sample sizes are usually low, thus limiting the ability to generalize findings of susceptibility towards noise influences. A method to measure harbor porpoise hearing thresholds in situ in outdoor conditions using auditory steady state responses of the brainstem was developed and tested. The method was used on 15 live-stranded animals from the North Sea during rehabilitation, shortly before release into the wild, and on 12 wild animals incidentally caught in pound nets in Denmark (inner Danish waters). Results indicated that although the variability between individuals is wide, the shape of the hearing curve is generally similar to previously published results from behavioral trials. Using 10-kHz frequency intervals between 10 and 160 kHz, best hearing was found between 120 and 130 kHz. Additional testing using one-third octave frequency intervals (from 16 to 160 kHz) allowed for a much faster hearing assessment, but eliminated the fine scale threshold characteristics. For further investigations, the method will be used to better understand the factors influencing sensitivity differences across individuals and to establish population-level parameters describing hearing abilities of harbor porpoises.

AB Rotating detonation engines have the potential to achieve the high propulsive efficiencies of detonation cycles in a simple and effective annular geometry. A two-dimensional Euler simulation is modified to include mixing factors to simulate the imperfect mixing of injected reactant streams. Contrary to expectations, mixing is shown to have a minimal impact on performance. Oblique detonation waves are shown to increase local stream thermal efficiency, which compensates for other losses in the flow stream. The degree of reactant mixing is, however, a factor in controlling the stability and existence of rotating detonations.

TI Effect of 5 MeV proton irradiation damage on performance of beta-Ga2O3
photodetectors
SO JOURNAL OF VACUUM SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY B

ID SOLAR-BLIND PHOTODETECTORS; GALLIUM OXIDE-FILMS; THIN-FILMS
AB Planar thin film beta-Ga2O3 photodetectors were irradiated with 5 MeV protons at doses from 10(13) to 10(15) cm(-2), and the resulting effects on photocurrent, responsivity, quantum efficiency, and photo-to-dark current ratio at 254 nm wavelength were measured at both 25 and 150 degrees C. The photocurrent increased with dose due to the introduction of damage from nonionizing energy loss by the protons. The total calculated vacancy concentration increased from 5 x 10(15) to 5 x 10(17) cm(-3) over the dose range investigated. The dark current increased in proportion with the implant dose, leading to a decrease in the ratio of photocurrent to dark current. The photocurrent induced by 254 nm illumination increased with dose, from similar to 0.3 x 10(-7) A at 25 degrees C for a dose of 10(13) cm(-2) to similar to 10(-6) A at a dose of 10(15) cm(-2) at a fixed light intensity of 760 mu W/cm(2). The phototo- dark current ratio decreased from similar to 60 in the control samples to similar to 9 after proton doses of 10(15) cm(-2), with corresponding external quantum efficiencies of similar to 10(3) % in control samples, similar to 2 x 10(3) % for a dose of 10(13) cm(-2), and 10 4 % for a dose of 10(15) cm(-2). The mechanism for the increase in photocurrent is the introduction of gap states, since the dark current of the photodetectors was increased by illuminating with sub-bandgap (red or green laser light) for the proton irradiated samples.

ID GALLIUM OXIDE-FILMS; ULTRAVIOLET PHOTODETECTORS; THIN-FILMS
AB The temperature dependent photoresponse of planar photodetectors fabricated on beta-Ga2O3 films grown on Al2O3 by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition to 254 nm wavelength, and blindness to 365 nm light, are reported over the range of 25-350 degrees C. Ohmic contacts were formed by Siimplantation and annealing at 900 degrees C, followed by deposition of Ti/Au metallization. The photocurrent induced by 254 nm illumination increased monotonically with temperature, from similar to 2.5 x 10(-7) A at 25 degrees C to similar to 2.2 x 10(-6) A at 350 degrees C at a fixed 254 nm light intensity of 760 lW/cm(2). The photosensitivity decreases at high temperatures in many photoconductors (thermal quenching), in sharp contrast to the photosensitivity increase with high temperatures in this study. This is ascribed to the presence of states in the gap of Ga2O3, whose presence was proven by exposure to below band-gap energy. In this case, the current still increased due to the presence of defect levels in the band gap and the generation of photocurrent is due to a transition between the valence or conduction band and impurity or defect levels within the band gap. The temperature dependent photo-to-dark current ratio for this wavelength was 328 at room temperature and decreased to similar to 9 at 350 degrees C. The responsivity increased from 5 to 36 A/W over this temperature range, with corresponding external quantum efficiencies of 2.5 x 10(3) % at 25 degrees C and 1.75 x 10(4) % at 350 degrees C. Similarly large numbers reported for Ga2O3 photodetectors have previously been ascribed to carrier multiplication effects. (C) 2016 American Vacuum Society.

TI Control of bulk and edge screening effects in two-dimensional arrays of
ungated field emitters
SO JOURNAL OF VACUUM SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY B
LA English
DT Article
ID EMISSION PROPERTIES; SURFACE FLASHOVER; CATHODE; ELECTRONS; PLASMA;
FILMS; COLD
AB In arrays of ungated field emitters, nearby emitters introduce a screening effect, reducing each emitter's field enhancement factor below its value in isolation. At the edge of the array, however, the strength of this screening effect is reduced because the number of nearby emitters is reduced, leading to a variation in the emitted current with position in the array. This may have detrimental effects on the emitted beam properties and lead to increased damage to the emitters near the edge due to increased current, heating, and ion bombardment. In this work, the authors apply line and point charge models to study the impact of screening on the performance of two-dimensional field emitter arrays, with an emphasis on quantifying the extent of the edge enhancement effect, and on assessing potential means to control it.

AB The authors describe recent experimental efforts to perform polarization-resolved optical spectroscopy of monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenide semiconductors in very large pulsed magnetic fields to 65 T. The experimental setup and technical challenges are discussed in detail, and temperature-dependent magnetoreflection spectra from atomically thin tungsten disulphide are presented. The data clearly reveal not only the valley Zeeman effect in these two-dimensional semiconductors but also the small quadratic exciton diamagnetic shift from which the very small exciton size can be directly inferred. Finally, the authors present model calculations that demonstrate how the measured diamagnetic shifts can be used to constrain estimates of the exciton binding energy in this new family of monolayer semiconductors.

AB The open-pit mine block sequencing problem (OPBS) models a deposit of ore and surrounding material near the Earth's surface as a three-dimensional grid of blocks. A solution in discretized time identifies a profit-maximizing extraction (mining) schedule for the blocks. Our model variant, a mixed-integer program (MIP), presumes a predetermined destination for each extracted block, namely, processing plant or waste dump. The MIP incorporates standard constructs but also adds not-so-standard lower bounds on resource consumption in each time period and allows fractional block extraction in a novel fashion while still enforcing pit-wall slope restrictions. A new extension of nested Benders decomposition, "hierarchical" Benders decomposition (HBD), solves the MIP's linear-programming relaxation. HBD exploits time-aggregated variables and can recursively decompose a model into a master problem and two subproblems rather than the usual single subproblem. A specialized branch-and-bound heuristic then produces high-quality, mixed-integer solutions. Medium-sized problems (e.g., 25,000 blocks and 20 time periods) solve to near optimality in minutes. To the best of our knowledge, these computational results are the best known for instances of OPBS that enforce lower bounds on resource consumption.

DISABILITY; RETURN
AB Background: Pectoralis major tendon ruptures are commonly described as rare injuries affecting men between 20 and 40 years of age, with generally excellent results after surgical repair. However, this perception is based on a relatively small number of case series and prospective studies in the orthopaedic literature.
Purpose: To determine the incidence of pectoralis major tendon ruptures in the active-duty military population and the demographic risk factors for a rupture and to describe the outcomes of surgical treatment.
Study Design: Case control study; Level of evidence, 3.
Methods: We utilized the Military Health System Data Repository (MDR) to identify all active-duty military personnel surgically treated for a pectoralis major tendon rupture between January 2012 and December 2014. Electronic medical records were searched for patients' demographic information, injury characteristics, and postoperative complications and outcomes. Risk factors for a rupture were calculated using Poisson regression, based on population counts obtained from the MDR. Risk factors for a postoperative complication, the need for revision surgery, and the inability to continue with active duty were determined using univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression.
Results: A total of 291 patients met inclusion criteria. The mean patient age was 30.5 years, all patients were male, and the median follow-up period was 18 months. The incidence of injuries was 60 per 100,000 person-years over the study period. Risk factors for a rupture included service in the Army, junior officer or junior enlisted rank, and age between 25 and 34 years. White race and surgery occurring >6 weeks after injury were significant risk factors for a postoperative complication. Among the 214 patients with a minimum of 12 months' clinical follow-up, 95.3% were able to return to military duty. Junior officer/enlisted status was a significant risk factor for failure to return to military duty.
Conclusion: Among military personnel, Army soldiers and junior officer/enlisted rank were at highest risk of pectoralis major tendon ruptures, and junior personnel were at highest risk of being unable to return to duty after surgical treatment. Although increasing time from injury to surgery was not a risk factor for treatment failure or inability to return to duty, it did significantly increase the risk of a postoperative complication.

Ugandan Civil Wars

AB What explains armed-group conduct toward civilians in war? The National Resistance Army (NRA) of Uganda demonstrated notable restraint toward civilians during its wars in northern Uganda in the 1980s, restraint that is puzzling given the overdetermined predictions for mass atrocity under rationalist, identity, and regime-type theories. Instead, the NRA case demonstrates that military culturethe organizational norms underlying combatant socializationis a primary determinant of armed-group behavior, influencing combatant conduct in ways not conceptualized under existing theories of victimization. This review of the NRA case, based on field interviews with Ugandan military officers and examinations of Ugandan documentary archives, reveals three key points regarding the role of military culture in effecting restraint. First, the NRA case shows that organizational factors like military culture can determine military behavior toward civilians. Second, it reveals that theories of military culture, incorporating both formal and informal mechanisms of combatant socialization, can provide a more complete theoretical account than existing theories of armed-group conduct. Finally, the NRA provides potential hypotheses for mechanisms through which culture influences military behavior. I analyze the effect of culture on the NRA's conduct as a plausibility probe, generating inductive insights drawn from detailed field research to shed light on the organizational drivers of armed-group restraint. The NRA case thus points the way to a reconceptualization of military culture and the role of organizational factors that influence conflict behavior.

AB The published external quantum efficiency data of the world-record CdTe solar cell suggests that the device uses bandgap engineering, most likely with a CdTexSe1-x alloy layer to increase the short-circuit current and overall device efficiency. Here atom probe tomography, transmission electron microscopy and electron beam-induced current are used to clarify the dependence of Se content on the photoactive properties of CdTexSe1-x alloy layers in bandgap-graded CdTe solar cells. Four solar cells were prepared with 50, 100, 200 and 400 nm-thick CdSe layers to reveal the formation, growth, composition, structure and photoactivity of the CdTexSe1-x alloy with respect to the degree of Se diffusion. The results show that the CdTexSe1-x layer photoactivity is highly dependent on the crystalline structure of the alloy (zincblende versus wurtzite), which is also dependent on the Se and Te concentrations.

AB An analysis of numerical simulations of tropical low intensification over land is presented. The simulations are carried out using the MM5 mesoscale model with initial and boundary conditions provided by ECMWF analyses. Seven simulations are discussed: a control simulation, five sensitivity simulations in which the initial moisture availability is varied, and one simulation in which the coupling between moisture availability is suppressed. Changing the initial moisture availability adds a stochastic element to the development of deep convection. The results are interpreted in terms of the classical axisymmetric paradigm for tropical cyclone intensification with recent modifications. Spin-up over land is favoured by the development of deep convection near the centre of the low circulation. As for tropical cyclones over sea, this convection leads to an overturning circulation that draws absolute angular momentum surfaces inwards in the lower troposphere leading to spin-up of the tangential winds above the boundary layer. The intensification takes place within a moist monsoonal environment, which appears to be sufficient to support sporadic deep convection. A moisture budget for two mesoscale columns of air encompassing the storm shows that the horizontal import of moisture is roughly equal to the moisture lost by precipitation. Overall, surface moisture fluxes make a small quantitative contribution to the budget although, near the circulation centre, these fluxes appear to play an important role in generating local conditional instability. Suppressing the effect of rainfall on the moisture availability has little effect on the evolution of the low, presumably because, at any one time, deep convection is not sufficiently widespread.

ID HURRICANE BOUNDARY-LAYER; INERTIAL STABILITY; MODEL; CORE; DYNAMICS
AB Widely held arguments attributing the increasingly rapid intensification of tropical cyclones to the increasing efficiency' of diabatic heating in the cyclone's inner core region associated with deep convection are examined. The efficiency, in essence the amount of temperature warming compared with the amount of latent heat released, is argued to increase as the vortex strengthens on account of the strengthening inertial stability. Another aspect of the efficiency ideas concerns the location of the heating in relation to the radius of maximum tangential wind speed, with heating inside this radius seen to be more efficient in rapidly developing a warm-core thermal structure and, presumably, a rapid increase in the tangential wind. A more direct interpretation of the increased spin-up rate is offered when the diabatic heating is located inside the radius of maximum tangential wind speed. Further, we draw attention to the limitations of assuming a fixed diabatic heating rate as the vortex intensifies and offer reasons, on these grounds alone, as to why it is questionable to apply the efficiency argument to interpret the results of observations or numerical model simulations of tropical cyclones. Moreover, since the spin-up of the maximum tangential winds in a tropical cyclone takes place in the boundary layer and the spin-up of the eyewall is a result of the vertical advection of high angular momentum from the boundary layer, it is questionable also whether deductions about efficiency in theories that neglect the boundary-layer dynamics and thermodynamics are relevant to reality.

AB Future extreme climate scenarios may harbour flows that have notably different intrinsic uncertainty from those of the present day. Here, ensemble perturbation analysis is used to explore this possibility for tropospheric flow on weather time-scales for a climate scenario from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community Climate Modeling System version 4 (CCSM4). Statistically significant changes are found in terms of basic uncertainty metrics including ensemble-average perturbation total energy, ensemble variance, and the growth rate of perturbation total energy and ensemble variance. Strong seasonal, geographic, and vertical variation in the changes are observed. For the winter season, the poles and the jet levels are regions that exhibit notable increases in ensemble uncertainty under the extreme scenario. These increases are accompanied in some cases by substantially larger peak growth rates. For the summer season, there are prominent increases in uncertainty under the extreme scenario in terms of moist metrics. Meanwhile, there are noteworthy reductions in uncertainty for many synoptic variables. These changes in uncertainty properties are accompanied by significant changes in measures of both baroclinic and convective flow stability. Collectively, the results suggest the changes in intrinsic uncertainty under the extreme climate scenario have a fairly nuanced character. Since the CCSM4 exhibits one of the lowest climate sensitivities of available climate models, the results define a conservative estimate of the changes to intrinsic uncertainty that might be expected from extreme climate change.

AB Key principles needed for the rational design of thermosetting monomer crystals, in order to control the melting point, have been elucidated using both theoretical and experimental investigations of cyanate esters. A determination of the thermodynamic properties associated with melting showed that the substitution of silicon for the central quaternary carbon in the di(cyanate ester), 2,2-bis(4-cyanatophenyl)propane, resulted in an increase in the entropy of melting along with a decrease in the enthalpy of melting, leading to a decrease in the melting temperature of 21.8 +/- 0.2 K. In contrast, the analogous silicon substitution in the tri(cyanate ester), 1,1,1-tris(4-cyanatophenyl)ethane, resulted in no significant changes to the enthalpy and entropy of melting, accompanied by a small increase of 1.5 +/- 0.3 K in the melting point. The crystal structure of 1,1,1-tris(4-cyanatophenyl)ethane was determined via single crystal X-ray diffraction, and the structures of these four di(cyanate esters) and tri(cyanate esters) were examined. Although both the empirical models of Lian and Yalkowsky, as well as Chickos and Acree, provided reasonable estimates of the entropy of melting of 2,2-bis(4-cyanatophenyl)propane, they successfully predicted only certain effects of silicon substitution and did not capture the difference in behavior between the di(cyanate esters) and the tri(cyanate esters). Semiempirical molecular modeling, however, helped to validate an explanation of the mechanism for the increase in the entropy of melting of the silicon-containing di(cyanate ester), while providing insight into the reason for the difference in behavior between the di(cyanate esters) and tri(cyanate esters). Taken together, the results assist in understanding how freedom of molecular motions in the liquid state may control the entropy of melting and can be utilized to guide the development of compounds with optimal melting characteristics for high-performance applications.

AB Perpendicular magnetic tunneling junctions with Ta\CoFeB\MgO have been extensively studied in recent years. However, the effects of the underlayer on the formation of the CoFeB perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) are still not well understood. Here, we report the results of our systematic use of a wide range of elements (Ti, V, Cr, Zr, Nb, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, and Au) encompassed by columns IVA, VA, VIA, VIIA, and VIIIA of the periodic table as the underlayer in an underlayer\Co20Fe60B20\MgO stack. Our goals were to survey more elements that could conceivably create a PMA in CoFeB and thereby to explore the mechanisms enabling these underlayers to enhance or create the PMA. We found that underlayer elements having an outer shell of both 4d electrons (Zr, Nb Mo, and Pd) and 5d electrons (Hf, Ta, W, Re, Ir, and Pt) resulted in the development of a PMA in the MgO-capped Co20Fe60B20. Hybridization between the 3d electrons of the Fe or Co (in the Co20Fe60B20) at the interface with the 4d or 5d electrons of the underlayer is thought to be the cause of the PMA development.

ID MODELS
AB A model for the vector magnetization of a distribution of uniaxial particles is presented. Recent work by the authors decomposed the magnetization into two components and modeled the total vector magnetization as their vector sum. Anisotropy could be ideally modeled as a constant field, but this leads to a model of unidirectional anisotropy. Considering uniaxial media, such approach will only be valid for small angles. Hence, in this paper, a model is proposed that calculates the total magnetization of a distribution of uniaxial particles as the vector sum of irreversible and reversible components. The magnitude of the irreversible component is modeled using a Preisach differential-equation approach; however, other valid models can be used. The direction of the reversible component is modeled using the minimum energy approach of the classical Stoner-Wohlfarth model. The final result of the model is an unsymmetrical lag-angle plot for intermediate applied field values, which is consistent with the measurements.

AB In this work, the properties of mixtures of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene and trans-decahydronaphthalene were measured. Density and viscosity were measured at temperatures ranging from (293.15 to 373.15) K, and speed of sound was measured at temperatures ranging from (293.15 to 333.15) K. For the mixtures, increasing the mole fraction of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene and decreasing the temperature caused increases in density, speed of sound, bulk modulus, flash point, and surface tension. Mixture viscosities were lower than those of either component. Bulk moduli ranged from (1323 to 2092) MPa over (293.15 to 333.15) K. At room temperature, surface tensions ranged from (30.5 to 35.0) mN.m(-1), and flash points ranged from (328.7 to 343.1) K. The density, speed of sound, and bulk modulus of hydrodepolymerized cellulosic diesel (HDCD) can be matched by mixtures of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene and trans-decahydronaphthalene. The flash point and viscosity of HDCD are higher than those of the mixtures, while its surface tension is lower than those of the mixtures. If combustion is more sensitive to density, speed of sound, and flash point and less sensitive to viscosity, flash point, and surface tension, then a surrogate mixture for HDCD could contain 1,2,3,4tetrahydronaphthalene and trans-decahydronaphthalene.

TI Observation-Dependent Posterior Inflation for the Ensemble Kalman Filter
SO MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW
LA English
DT Article
ID ADAPTIVE COVARIANCE INFLATION; DATA ASSIMILATION; ERRORS
AB Ensemble-based Kalman filter (EBKF) algorithms are known to produce posterior ensembles whose variance is incorrect for a variety of reasons (e.g., nonlinearity and sampling error). It is shown here that the presence of sampling error implies that the true posterior error variance is a function of the latest observation, as opposed to the standard EBKF, whose posterior variance is independent of observations. In addition, it is shown that the traditional ensemble validation tool known as the "binned spread-skill'' diagram does not correctly identify this issue in the ensemble generation step of the EBKF, leading to an overly optimistic impression of the relationship between posterior variance and squared error. An updated ensemble validation tool is described that reveals the incorrect relationship between mean squared error (MSE) and ensemble variance, and gives an unbiased evaluation of the posterior variances from EBKF algorithms. Last, a new inflation method is derived that accounts for sampling error and correctly yields posterior error variances that depend on the latest observation. The new method has very little computational overhead, does not require access to the observations, and is simple to use in any serial or global EBKF.

AB Obesity is a major health problem in the United States and a growing concern among members of the military. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been associated with overweight and obesity and may increase the risk of those conditions among military service members. Disordered eating behaviors have also been associated with PTSD and weight gain. However, eating disorders remain understudied in military samples. We investigated longitudinal associations among PTSD, disordered eating, and weight gain in the Millennium Cohort Study, which includes a nationally representative sample of male (italic toggle="yes"n = 27,741) and female (italic toggle="yes"n = 6,196) service members. PTSD at baseline (time 1; 2001-2003) was associated with disordered eating behaviors at time 2 (2004-2006), as well as weight change from time 2 to time 3 (2007-2008). Structural equation modeling results revealed that the association between PTSD and weight change from time 2 to time 3 was mediated by disordered eating symptoms. The association between PTSD and weight gain resulting from compensatory behaviors (vomiting, laxative use, fasting, overexercise) was significant for white participants only and for men but not women. PTSD was both directly and indirectly (through disordered eating) associated with weight change. These results highlight potentially important demographic differences in these associations and emphasize the need for further investigation of eating disorders in military service members.

ID BASIC CONSIDERATIONS; WAVE-PROPAGATION; SIMULATION; PROJECTION; MEDIA
AB A new target-in-the-loop (TIL) atmospheric sensing concept for in situ remote measurements of major laser beam characteristics and atmospheric turbulence parameters is proposed and analyzed numerically. The technique is based on utilization of an integral relationship between complex amplitudes of the counterpropagating optical waves known as overlapping integral or interference metric, whose value is preserved along the propagation path. It is shown that the interference metric can be directly measured using the proposed TIL sensing system composed of a single-mode fiber-based optical transceiver and a remotely located retro-target. The measured signal allows retrieval of key beam and atmospheric turbulence characteristics including scintillation index and the path-integrated refractive index structure parameter.

This turbulence generator operates on the principle of free convection from a heated surface placed below the entire propagation path of the beam, similar to the situation in long-distance horizontal propagation for laser communications, power beaming, or directed energy applications.

ID MORTALITY
AB The reasons for the unprecedented mortality during the 1918 influenza pandemic remain poorly understood. We examined morbidity records from three military cohorts from years prior to and during the 1918 pandemic period to assess the effects of previous respiratory illnesses on experiences during the pandemic. Clinical registers and morbidity lists were examined to identify all medical encounters for acute respiratory illnesses in students at two U.S. military officer training academies and Australian soldiers deployed in Europe. Influenza-like illness prior to the major pandemic wave of 1918 predisposed Australian soldiers [relative risk (RR) 1.37, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.18-1.60, P < 0.0001] and US officer trainees at West Point (RR 3.10, 95% CI 2.13-4.52, P < 0.0001) and Annapolis (RR 2.03, 95% CI 1.65-2.50, P < 0.0001) to increased risks of medically treated illnesses in late 1918. The findings suggest that susceptibility to and/or clinical expressions of the 1918 pandemic influenza virus depended on previous experiences with respiratory infectious agents. The findings are consistent with observations during the 2009 pandemic in Canada and may reflect antibody-dependent enhancement of influenza infection.

AB Quaternary sputtering is a promising alternative to more established deposition methods for the fabrication of Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 (CIGS) thin films for photovoltaics (PV). In this technique, a single sputtering target containing all four constituents is employed to deposit the CIGS film. Quaternary sputtering offers several advantages over other deposition methods, including excellent uniformity over large areas, high material usage, and less reliance on toxic Se precursors such as H-2 Se. Despite these advantages, several drawbacks remain. To date, devices fabricated by quaternary sputtering without additional selenization have been limited in efficiency to about 11%, and realizing bandgap grading in order to match the performance of the best evaporated devices presents a challenge. We discuss the prospects for quaternary sputtering as a fabrication technique for CIGS and highlight areas of research that may result in improved performance. Target fabrication and usage is reviewed. We also present results for films and devices including data for the optical constants of sputtered CIGS. Some recent previously unpublished results, including a study of impurities in CIGS sputtering targets and the first demonstration of a CIGS device on a flexible glass substrate, are discussed

AB We investigate the problem of streaming multi-user videos over the downlink of a cognitive radio network (CRN), where each cognitive user (CU) can access one channel at a time. We first consider the case where each CU can sense one channel at a time slot at most. To make the problem tractable, we tackle the optimal spectrum sensing and access problems separately and develop matching-based optimal algorithms to the subproblems, which yield an overall suboptimal solution. We then consider the case where each CU can sense multiple channels. We show that under the assumption that all the spectrum sensors work on the same operating point, a two-step approach can derive the optimal spectrum sensing and access policies that maximize the quality of experience (QoE) of the streaming videos. The superior performance of the proposed approaches is validated with simulations and comparisons with benchmark schemes, where a performance gain from 25% to 30% is demonstrated.

AB Multibody wave energy converters are composed of several bodies interconnected by joints. Two different formulations are adopted to describe the dynamics of multibody systems: the differential and algebraic equations (DAEs) formulation, and the ordinary differential equations (ODEs) formulation. While the number of variables required for the description of the dynamics of a multibody system is greater in the DAE formulation than in the ODE formulation, the ODE formulation involves an extra computational effort in order to describe the dynamics of the system with a smaller number of variables. In this paper, pseudo-spectral (PS) methods are applied in order to solve the dynamics of multibody wave energy converters using both DAE and ODE formulations. Apart from providing a solution to the dynamics of multibody systems, pseudo-spectral methods provide an accurate and efficient formulation for the control of multibody wave energy converters. As an application example, this paper focuses on the dynamic modeling of a three-body hinge-barge device, where wave-tank tests are carried out in order to validate the DAE and ODE models against experimental data. Comparison of the ODE and DAE PS methods against a reference model based on the straightforward (Runge-Kutta) integration of the equations of motion shows that pseudo-spectral methods are computationally more stable and require less computational effort for short time steps.

AB We present a novel approach to inverse problems in imaging based on a hierarchical Bayesian-MAP (HB-MAP) formulation. In this paper we specifically focus on the difficult and basic inverse problem of multi-sensor (tomographic) imaging wherein the source object of interest is viewed from multiple directions by independent sensors. Given the measurements recorded by these sensors, the problem is to reconstruct the image (of the object) with a high degree of fidelity. We employ a probabilistic graphical modeling extension of the compound Gaussian distribution as a global image prior into a hierarchical Bayesian inference procedure. Since the prior employed by our HB-MAP algorithm is general enough to subsume a wide class of priors including those typically employed in compressive sensing (CS) algorithms, HB-MAP algorithm offers a vehicle to extend the capabilities of current CS algorithms to include truly global priors. After rigorously deriving the regression algorithm for solving our inverse problem from first principles, we demonstrate the performance of the HB-MAP algorithm on Monte Carlo trials and on real empirical data (natural scenes). In all cases we find that our algorithm outperforms previous approaches in the literature including filtered back-projection and a variety of state-of-the-art CS algorithms. We conclude with directions of future research emanating from this work.

AB In this article, the authors present background and analysis on a dark money network. An AHP/TOPSIS (analytical hierarchy process/technique of order preference by similarity to ideal solution) hybrid model is used to find the key nodes of the network. The analysis of the key nodes leads to improved targeting strategies against the network. Game theory applications using kinetic versus non-kinetic strategies in dealing with the network are developed after using AHP to obtain cardinal utility from the ordinal ranking originally provided. These methods provide an additional metric that can be employed when dealing with and analyzing any dark network.

AB The impact of fast-propagating swell on the air-sea momentum exchange and the marine boundary layer is examined based on multiple large-eddy simulations over a range of wind speed and swell parameters in the light-wind-fast-wave regime. A wave-driven supergeostrophic jet forms near the top of the wave boundary layer when the forwarding-pointing (i.e., negative) form drag associated with fast wind-following swell overpowers the positive surface shear stress. The magnitude of the form drag increases with the wavelength and slope and decreases with increasing wind speed, and the jet intensity in general increases with the magnitude of the surface form drag. The resulting negative vertical wind shear above the jet in turn enhances the turbulence aloft. The level of the wind maximum is found to be largely determined by the wavenumber and the ratio of the surface shear stress and form drag: the larger the magnitude of this ratio, the higher the altitude of the wind maximum.
Although the simulated wind profile often closely follows the log law in the wave boundary layer, the surface stress derived from the logarithmic wind profile is significantly larger than the actual total surface stress in the presence of swell. Therefore, the Monin-Obukhov similarity theory is generally invalid over swell-dominated ocean. This is attributed to the wave-induced contribution to momentum flux, which decays roughly exponentially in the vertical and is largely independent of local wind shear.

AB During the Deep Propagating Gravity Wave Experiment (DEEPWAVE) project in June and July 2014, the Gulfstream V research aircraft flew 97 legs over the Southern Alps of New Zealand and 150 legs over the Tasman Sea and Southern Ocean, mostly in the low stratosphere at 12.1-km altitude. Improved instrument calibration, redundant sensors, longer flight legs, energy flux estimation, and scale analysis revealed several new gravity wave properties. Over the sea, flight-level wave fluxes mostly fell below the detection threshold. Over terrain, disturbances had characteristic mountain wave attributes of positive vertical energy flux (EFz), negative zonal momentum flux, and upwind horizontal energy flux. In some cases, the fluxes changed rapidly within an 8-h flight, even though environmental conditions were nearly unchanged. The largest observed zonal momentum and vertical energy fluxes were MFx = -550 mPa and EFz = 22W m(-2), respectively.
A wide variety of disturbance scales were found at flight level over New Zealand. The vertical wind variance at flight level was dominated by short "fluxless'' waves with wavelengths in the 6-15-km range. Even shorter scales, down to 500 m, were found in wave breaking regions. The wavelength of the flux-carrying mountain waves was much longer-mostly between 60 and 150 km. In the strong cases, however, with EFz > 4W m(-2), the dominant flux wavelength decreased (i.e., "downshifted'') to an intermediate wavelength between 20 and 60 km. Apotential explanation for the rapid flux changes and the scale "downshifting'' is that low-level flow can shift between "terrain following'' and "envelope following'' associated with trapped air in steep New Zealand valleys.

AB A growing body of literature that extols the ability of information and communication technologies (ICTs) to enhance well-being in developing countries tends to focus on long run institutional and socio-economic changes as key to driving Internet uptake. The literature, however, too often ignores one factor in discussions of ICTs' importance and employment: electricity. Overlooking the centrality of electricity to any ICT for development (ICT4D) initiative has enormous consequences; countless initiatives have failed to consider the (in)ability to power the technology that is central to such development efforts. The present article seeks to address this gap by emphasizing the primacy of electricity in ICT4D initiatives. Utilizing a unique dataset that avoids issues associated with unreliably measured and inequitably distributed grid power, we examine the drivers of Internet adoption in low-income countries. We find robust evidence that increasing the distribution of electricity within under-served countries and thereby making electricity available to a larger proportion of the population significantly increases the number of Internet users. Arguably, improvements in infrastructure may bring about significant changes in Internet use, even in places where advancements in education and political representation remain elusive.

AB Ribosomal transcripts produce critical proteins that are involved in most cellular production processes. Targeting ribosomal transcripts has produced mortality in mites and ticks but the effect of ribosomal transcript knockdown has not been thoroughly examined in mosquitoes. We examine the effects of triggers targeting four ribosomal proteins (RP) transcripts. Although no significant mortality was observed after dsRNA microinjection and subsequent blood feeding, significant contrasts were observed on fecundity. Triggers targeting RPS6 and RPL26 effectively reduced gene expression but more importantly, reduced reproductive output by more than 96% and 91% at the first oviposition while triggers targeting RPL1 and RPS2 did not cause a reduction although gene expression was reduced. Significantly reduced fecundity continued through a second oviposition cycle in dsRPS6 and dsRPL26 cohorts, although the effect was not as strong. Relative gene expression levels confirmed specific transcript knockdown up to 20 days post-injection in mosquitoes that did not oviposit or produced reduced clutch sizes. Dissections at 36 h post-blood meal indicated defects in oocyte provisioning. The strong phenotype produced by d5RPS6 allowed us to examine the effects in various tissues as well as the dose response, trigger format, delivery method and trigger specificity in Aedes aegypti. Strong knockdown was observed in the abdomen and the ovaries. Greater than 50 ng of dsRPS6 significantly reduced fecundity but not when delivered in a sugar meal or as an siRNA. Similar bioassays with mutated d5RPS6 triggers indicates that up to three mismatches per possible siRNA are still effective in reducing fecundity. These studies indicate that while active and effective triggers can be developed for vector species, the lack of an efficient delivery method is the biggest barrier to use as a potential control method.

AB Imaging and spectroscopy at (sub-)millimeter wavelengths are key frontiers in astronomy and cosmology. Large area spectral surveys with moderate spectral resolution (-200) will be used to characterize large-scale structure and star formation through intensity mapping surveys in emission lines such as the CO rotational transitions. Such surveys will also be used to study the the Sunyaev Zeldovich (SZ) effect, and will detect the emission lines and continuum spectrum of individual objects. WSPEC is an instrument proposed to target these science goals. It is a channelizing spectrometer realized in rectangular waveguide, fabricated using conventional high-precision metal machining. Each spectrometer is coupled to free space with a machined feed horn, and the devices are tiled into a 2D array to fill the focal plane of the telescope. The detectors will be aluminum lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors (LEKIDs). To target the CO lines and SZ effect, we will have bands at 135-175 and 190-250 GHz, each Nyquist-sampled at resolution. Here, we discuss the instrument concept and design, and successful initial testing of a WR10 (i.e., 90 GHz) prototype spectrometer. We recently tested a WR5 (180 GHz) prototype to verify that the concept works at higher frequencies, and also designed a resonant backshort structure that may further increase the optical efficiency. We are making progress towards integrating a spectrometer with a LEKID array and deploying a prototype device to a telescope for first light.

AB We discuss the design and measured performance of a titanium nitride (TiN) mesh absorber we are developing for controlling optical crosstalk in horn-coupled lumped-element kinetic inductance detector (LEKID) arrays for millimeter wavelengths. This absorber was added to the fused silica anti-reflection coating attached to previously characterized, 20-element prototype arrays of LEKIDs fabricated from thin-film aluminum on silicon substrates. To test the TiN crosstalk absorber, we compared the measured response and noise properties of LEKID arrays with and without the TiN mesh. For this test, the LEKIDs were illuminated with an adjustable, incoherent electronic millimeter-wave source. Our measurements show that the optical crosstalk in the LEKID array with the TiN absorber is reduced by 66 % on average, so the approach is effective and a viable candidate for future kilo-pixel arrays.

AB MUSTANG-2 is a 90 GHz feedhorn-coupled, microwave SQUID-multiplexed TES bolometer array in the final stages of development for operation on the 100-m Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope. We present the camera design and report the performance during the first season of observation, in which 64 of the available 215 pixels in the focal plane were populated. We highlight the microwave multiplexing readout technology, which is envisioned as a path to read out the next generation of large pixel-count cryogenic focal planes. In this regard, MUSTANG2 is a pathfinder for this multiplexing technology. We present noise spectra which show no detector noise degradation when read out with microwave SQUID multiplexing, and we present first light images of Jupiter and M87, which demonstrate the end-to-end system performance.

AB In this work we construct a high-order, single-stage, single-step positivity-preserving method for the compressible Euler equations. Space is discretized with the finite difference weighted essentially non-oscillatory method. Time is discretized through a Lax-Wendroff procedure that is constructed from the Picard integral formulation of the partial differential equation. The method can be viewed as a modified flux approach, where a linear combination of a low-and high-order flux defines the numerical flux used for a single-step update. The coefficients of the linear combination are constructed by solving a simple optimization problem at each time step. The high-order flux itself is constructed through the use of Taylor series and the Cauchy-Kowalewski procedure that incorporates higher-order terms. Numerical results in one-and two-dimensions are presented.

AB Objective: To assess the prevalence of obesity and associated health outcomes among US service members and veterans.
Methods: Data from three survey cycles (2001-2008) of the Millennium Cohort Study were used to examine the prevalence of obesity and associated health outcomes.
Results: Of the 42,200 individuals, 25% were of normal weight in 2007/2008. Rates of obesity were significantly higher among veterans (32%) compared with service members (20%). Over a 7-year period, obesity rates doubled among both service members (10%-20%) and veterans (14%-32%). Participants with obesity were significantly more likely to be male, older, less educated, in the Army or Navy, and separated/retired from the military. Hypertension, diabetes, and sleep apnea were significantly more common among individuals with obesity compared with participants with normal weight (all P<0.05). Individuals with obesity also had significantly higher rates of depression and post-traumatic stress disorder than individuals with normal weight and had lower mental and physical functional scores (all P<0.05).
Conclusions: These findings indicate an urgent need to enhance strategies for preventing and reducing excess weight gain within the military and veteran populations. Such strategies should aim to ensure a fit military force and promote health after military service.

AB A suite of real-time ocean model forecasts was carried out successfully at NRL to provide modeling support and guidance to the CARTHE GLAD at-sea experiment during summer 2012. The forecast systems include two RELO ensembles and three single models using NCOM and HYCOM with different resolutions. All of these forecast outputs are archived and made available on web servers for the CARTHE scientists. The detailed descriptions of these forecast systems and the products presented in this paper provide a much-needed background to the scientists in CARTHE and others who will use our forecasts and GLAD drifter observations to do further research after the future public release of the CARTHE GLAD data.
A calibrated ensemble system with enhanced spread and reliability is proposed in this project. It is found that this calibrated ensemble outperforms the un-calibrated ensemble in terms of quantitative forecasting accuracy, skill and reliability for all the variables and observation spaces we have evaluated. The metrics used include RMS error, anomaly correlation, spread-reliability and Talagrand rank histogram. Both ensembles are compared with three single-model forecasts with NCOM and HYCOM with different resolutions. The advantages of ensembles are demonstrated.
RELO ensembles have been applied to Lagrangian trajectory prediction, and it is demonstrated that either ensemble can provide valuable uncertainty information in addition to predicting the particle trajectory with highest probability in comparison with a single ocean model forecast. The calibrated ensemble with more reliability is able to capture some trajectories in different, even opposite directions which are missed by the un-calibrated ensemble. When the ensembles are applied to computing the LCS (Lagrangian Coherent Structure), the uncertainties of the LCSs, which cannot be estimated from a single model forecast, are identified. Another finding is that the LCS depends on the model resolution. The model with highest resolution produces the finest small-scale LCS structures, while the model with lowest resolution generates only large scale LCSs. The work on using ocean ensembles in Lagrangian ocean dynamics presented in this paper represents our initial attempt in this field. It is expected that this work will lead to more extensive new research in this area in the near future. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

projectile and the maximum orbital radius for planetary impact
SO EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PHYSICS

DE orbital motion; momentum conservation; energy conservation; angular
momentum; ballistics
AB Starting with conservation of energy and angular momentum, we derive a convenient method for determining the periapsis distance of an orbiting object, by expressing its velocity components in terms of the local circular speed. This relation is used to extend the results of our previous paper, examining the effects of an adhesive inelastic collision between a projectile launched from the surface of a planet (of radius R) and an equal-mass satellite in a circular orbit of radius r(s). We show that there is a maximum orbital radius r(s) approximate to 18.9R beyond which such a collision cannot cause the satellite to impact the planet. The difficulty of bringing down a satellite in a high orbit with a surface-launched projectile provides a useful topic for a discussion of orbital angular momentum and energy. The material is suitable for an undergraduate intermediate mechanics course.

AB We show that finding a subgraph realization with the minimum generalized Randic index for a given base graph and degree sequence is solvable in polynomial time by formulating the problem as the minimum weight perfect b-matching problem of Edmonds (J Res Natl Bur Stand 69B (1965), 125-130). However, the realization found via this reduction is not guaranteed to be connected. Approximating the minimum weight perfect b-matching problem subject to a connectivity constraint is shown to be NP-hard. For instances in which the optimal solution to the minimum Randic index problem is not connected, we describe a heuristic to connect the graph using pairwise edge exchanges that preserves the degree sequence. Although we focus on finding graph realizations with minimum Randic index, our results extend to finding graph realizations with maximum Randic index as well. Applications of the Randic index are provided to synchronization of neuronal networks controlling respiration in mammals and to normalizing cortical thickness networks in diagnosing individuals with dementia.

AB Objectives: Lessons learned from battle have been fundamental to advancing the care of injuries that occur in civilian life. Equally important is the need to further refine these advances in civilian practice, so they are available during future conflicts. The Major Extremity Trauma Research Consortium (METRC) was established to address these needs.
Methods: METRC is a network of 22 core level I civilian trauma centers and 4 core military treatment centers-with the ability to expand patient recruitment to more than 30 additional satellite trauma centers for the purpose of conducting multicenter research studies relevant to the treatment and outcomes of orthopaedic trauma sustained in the military. Early measures of success of the Consortium pertain to building of an infrastructure to support the network, managing the regulatory process, and enrolling and following patients in multiple studies.
Results: METRC has been successful in maintaining the engagement of several leading, high volume, level I trauma centers that form the core of METRC; together they operatively manage 15,432 major fractures annually. METRC is currently funded to conduct 18 prospective studies that address 6 priority areas. The design and implementation of these studies are managed through a single coordinating center. As of December 1, 2015, a total of 4560 participants have been enrolled.
Conclusions: Success of METRC to date confirms the potential for civilian and military trauma centers to collaborate on critical research issues and leverage the strength that comes from engaging patients and providers from across multiple centers.

AB OBJECTIVE: The high-stress, fast-paced environment of combat casualty care relies on effective teamwork and communication which translates into quality patient care. A training course was developed for U.S. Navy Fleet Surgical Teams to address these aspects of patient care by emphasizing efficiency and appropriate patient care. An effective training course provides knowledge and skills to pass the course evaluation and sustain the knowledge and skills acquired over time.
DESIGN: The course included classroom didactic hours, and hands-on simulation sessions. A pretest was administered before the course, a posttest upon completion, and a sustainment test 5 months following course completion. The evaluation process measured changes in patient time to disposition and critical errors made during patient care.
SETTING: Naval Base San Diego, with resuscitation and surgical simulations carried out within the shipboard medical spaces.
PARTICIPANTS: United States Navy medical personnel including physicians of various specialties, corpsmen, nurses, and nurse anesthetists deploying aboard ships.
RESULTS: Time to disposition improved significantly, 11 +/- 3 minutes, from pretest to posttest, and critical errors improved by 4 +/- 1 errors per encounter. From posttest to sustainment test, time to disposition increased by 3 +/- 1, and critical errors decreased by 1 +/- 1.
CONCLUSIONS: This course showed value in improving teamwork and communication skills of participants, immediately upon completion of the course, and after 5 months had passed. Therefore, with ongoing sustainment activities within 6 months, this course can substantially improve trauma care provided by shipboard deployed Navy medical personnel to wounded service members.

AB The response of a wind-sea spectrum to sudden changes in wind directions of 180 degrees and 90 degrees is investigated. Numerical simulations using the third-generation wave spectral model SWAN have been undertaken at micro timescales of 30 s and fine spatial resolution of less than 10 m. The results have been validated against the wave data collected during the field campaign at Lake George, Australia. The newly implemented 'ST6' physics in the SWAN model has been evaluated using a selection of bottom-friction terms and the two available functions for the nonlinear energy transfer: (1) exact solution of the nonlinear term (XNL), and (2) discrete interactions approximation (DIA) that parameterizes the nonlinear term. Good agreement of the modelled data is demonstrated directly with the field data and through the known experimental growth curves obtained from the extensive Lake George data set.
The modelling results show that of the various combinations of models tested, the ST6/XNL model provides the most reliable computations of integral and spectral wave parameters. When the winds and waves are opposing (180 degrees wind turn), the XNL is nearly twice as fast in the aligning the young wind-sea with the new wind direction than the DIA. In this case, the young wind-sea gradually decouples from the old waves and forms a new secondary peak. Unlike the 180 degrees wind turn, there is no decoupling in the 90 degrees wind turn and the entire spectrum rotates smoothly in the new direction. In both cases, the young wind-sea starts developing in the new wind direction within 10 min of the wind turn for the ST6 while the directional response of the default physics lags behind with a response time that is nearly double of ST6.
The modelling results highlight the differences in source term balance among the different models in SWAN. During high wind speeds, the default settings provide a larger contribution from the bottom-friction dissipation than the whitecapping. In contrast, the whitecapping dissipation is dominant in ST6 while the bottom-friction generated by the new model with ripple formation provides a significant contribution during strong winds only. During low wind speeds and non-breaking wave conditions, a separate swell or non-breaking dissipation source term continues the decay of waves that cannot be dissipated by the whitecapping dissipation function.

AB Over 2.5 million Americans served in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. In this short article, we consider the impact of these experiences on their future welfare. Specifically, we ask if those who served in Afghanistan and Iraq are more or less likely to exploit their GI Bill benefits in order to pursue higher education than service members who did not directly participate in these conflicts. We exploit a comprehensive administrative dataset that the US Armed Forces' Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) provided to us. We find across models that deployment to Afghanistan or Iraq significantly increases the likelihood that veterans will take advantage of their educational benefits, but that exposure to violent combat significantly decreases it.

AB We propose a high-order finite difference weighted ENO (WENO) method for the ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations. The proposed method is single-stage (i.e., it has no internal stages to store), single-step (i.e., it has no time history that needs to be stored), maintains a discrete divergence-free condition on the magnetic field, and has the capacity to preserve the positivity of the density and pressure. To accomplish this, we use a Taylor discretization of the Picard integral formulation (PIF) of the finite difference WENO method proposed in Christlieb et al. (2015) [23], where the focus is on a high-order discretization of the fluxes (as opposed to the conserved variables). We use the version where fluxes are expanded to third-order accuracy in time, and for the fluid variables space is discretized using the classical fifth-order finite difference WENO discretization. We use constrained transport in order to obtain divergence-free magnetic fields, which means that we simultaneously evolve the magnetohydrodynamic (that has an evolution equation for the magnetic field) and magnetic potential equations alongside each other, and set the magnetic field to be the (discrete) curl of the magnetic potential after each time step. In this work, we compute these derivatives to fourth-order accuracy. In order to retain a single-stage, single-step method, we develop a novel Lax-Wendroff discretization for the evolution of the magnetic potential, where we start with technology used for Hamilton Jacobi equations in order to construct a non-oscillatory magnetic field. The end result is an algorithm that is similar to our previous work Christlieb et al. (2014) [8], but this time the time stepping is replaced through a Taylor method with the addition of a positivity preserving limiter. Finally, positivity preservation is realized by introducing a parameterized flux limiter that considers a linear combination of high and low-order numerical fluxes. The choice of the free parameter is then given in such a way that the fluxes are limited towards the low-order solver until positivity is attained. Given the lack of additional degrees of freedom in the system, this positivity limiter lacks energy conservation where the limiter turns on. However, this ingredient can be dropped for problems where the pressure does not become negative. We present two and three dimensional numerical results for several standard test problems including a smooth Alfven wave (to verify formal order of accuracy), shock tube problems (to test the shock-capturing ability of the scheme), Orszag-Tang, and cloud shock interactions. These results assert the robustness and verify the high-order of accuracy of the proposed scheme. (C) 2016 Published by Elsevier Inc.

OUTPUT
AB A Bayesian model selection and parameter estimation algorithm is applied to investigate the influence of nonlinear and unsteady aerodynamic loads on the limit cycle oscillation (LCO) of a pitching airfoil in the transitional Reynolds number regime. At small angles of attack, laminar boundary layer trailing edge separation causes negative aerodynamic damping leading to the LCO. The fluid-structure interaction of the rigid, but elastically mounted, airfoil and nonlinear unsteady aerodynamics is represented by two coupled nonlinear stochastic ordinary differential equations containing uncertain parameters and model approximation errors. Several plausible aerodynamic models with increasing complexity are proposed to describe the aeroelastic system leading to LCO. The likelihood in the posterior parameter probability density function (pdf) is available semi-analytically using the extended Kalman filter for the state estimation of the coupled nonlinear structural and unsteady aerodynamic model. The posterior parameter pdf is sampled using a parallel and adaptive Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm. The posterior probability of each model is estimated using the Chib-Jeliazkov method that directly uses the posterior MCMC samples for evidence (marginal likelihood) computation. The Bayesian algorithm is validated through a numerical study and then applied to model the nonlinear unsteady aerodynamic loads using wind-tunnel test data at various Reynolds numbers.

AB Global data from drifters of the Surface Velocity Program (Niiler, 2001) and tropical cyclones (TCs) from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center and National Hurricane Center were analyzed to demonstrate strong ocean currents and their characteristics under various storm intensities in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) and in the Southern Hemisphere (SH). Mean TC's translation speed (U-h) is faster in the NH (similar to 4.7 m s(-1)) than in the SH (similar to 4.0 m s(-1)), owing to the fact that TCs are more intense in the NH than in the SH. The rightward (leftward) bias of ocean mixed-layer (OML) velocity occurs in the NH (SH). As a result of this slower Uh and thus a smaller Froude number in the SH, the flow patterns in the SH under the same intensity levels of TCs are more symmetric relative to the TC center and the OML velocities are stronger. This study provides the first characterization of the near-surface OML velocity response to all recorded TCs in the SH from direct velocity measurements. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Given a straight-line program whose output is a polynomial function of the inputs, we present a new algorithm to compute a concise representation of that unknown function. Our algorithm can handle any case where the unknown function is a multivariate polynomial, with coefficients in an arbitrary finite field, and with a reasonable number of nonzero terms but possibly very large degree. It is competitive with previously known sparse interpolation algorithms that work over an arbitrary finite field, and provides an improvement when there are a large number of variables.

AB Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) of functional materials offers unique advantages and capabilities for the rapid prototyping of electronic, optical and sensor elements. The use of LIFT for printing high viscosity metallic nano-inks and nano-pastes can be optimized for the transfer of voxels congruent with the shape of the laser pulse, forming thin film-like structures non-lithographically. These processes are capable of printing patterns with excellent lateral resolution and thickness uniformity typically found in 3-dimensional stacked assemblies, MEMS-like structures and free-standing interconnects. However, in order to achieve congruent voxel transfer with LIFT, the particle size and viscosity of the ink or paste suspensions must be adjusted to minimize variations due to wetting and drying effects. When LIFT is carried out with high-viscosity nano-suspensions, the printed voxel size and shape become controllable parameters, allowing the printing of thin-film like structures whose shape is determined by the spatial distribution of the laser pulse. The result is a new level of parallelization beyond current serial direct-write processes whereby the geometry of each printed voxel can be optimized according to the pattern design. This work shows how LIFT of congruent voxels can be applied to the fabrication of 2D and 3D microstructures by adjusting the viscosity of the nano-suspension and laser transfer parameters.

AB We analyze the optical, chemical, and electrical properties of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) using the precursor ammonia-borane (H3N-BH3) as a function of Ar/H-2 background pressure (P-TOT). Films grown at P-TOT <= 2.0 Torr are uniform in thickness, highly crystalline, and consist solely of h-BN. At larger P-TOT with constant precursor flow, the growth rate increases, but the resulting h-BN is more amorphous, disordered, and sp(3)-bonded. We attribute these changes in h-BN grown at high pressure to incomplete thermolysis of the H3N-BH3 precursor from a passivated Cu catalyst. A similar increase in h-BN growth rate and amorphization is observed even at low P-TOT if the H3N-BH3 partial pressure is initially greater than the background pressure P-TOT at the beginning of growth. h-BN growth using the H3N-BH3 precursor reproducibly can give large-area, crystalline h-BN thin films, provided that the total pressure is under 2.0 Torr and the precursor flux is well controlled.

ID PHASE-CHANGE MATERIALS; MEMORY; FILMS; POWER
AB The DC and RF electronic behaviors of GeTe-based phase change material switches as a function of temperature, from 25K to 375K, have been examined. In its polycrystalline (ON) state, GeTe behaved as a degenerate p-type semiconductor, exhibiting metal-like temperature dependence in the DC regime. This was consistent with the polycrystalline (ON) state RF performance of the switch, which exhibited low resistance S-parameter characteristics. In its amorphous (OFF) state, the GeTe presented significantly greater DC resistance that varied considerably with bias and temperature. At low biases (<1 V) and temperatures (<200 K), the amorphous GeTe low -field resistance dramatically increased, resulting in exceptionally high amorphous -polycrystalline (OFF-ON) resistance ratios, exceeding 109 at cryogenic temperatures. At higher biases and temperatures, the amorphous GeTe exhibited nonlinear cutTent-voltage characteristics that were best fit by a space charge limited conduction model that incorporates the effect of a defect band. The observed conduction behavior suggests the presence of two regions of localized traps within the bandgap of the amorphous GeTe, located at approximately 0.26-0.27 eV and 0.56-0.57 eV from the valence hand. Unlike the polycrystalline state, the high resistance DC behavior of amorphous GeTe does not translate to the RF switch performance; instead, a parasitic capacitance associated with the RF switch geometry dominates OFF state RF transmission.

AB Photonic integrated circuits have enabled progressively active functionality in compact devices with the potential for large-scale integration. To date the lowest loss photonic circuits are achieved with silica or silicon nitride-based platforms. However, these materials generally lack reconfigurability. In this work we present a platform for achieving active functionality in any dielectric waveguide via large-scale opto-electro-mechanical tuning of the effective refractive index (Delta n(eff approximate to)0.01-0.1) and phase (Delta phi>2 pi). A suspended microbridge weakly interacts with the evanescent field of a low-mode confinement waveguide to tune the effective refractive index and phase with minimal loss. Metal-coated bridges enable electrostatic actuation to displace the microbridge to dynamically tune n(EFF). In a second implementation we place a non-metallized dielectric microbridge in a gradient electric field to achieve actuation and tuning. Both approaches are broadband, universally applicable to any waveguide, and pave the way for adding active functionality to many passive optical materials.

AB The Rim Fire of 2013, the third largest area burned by fire recorded in California history, is simulated by a climate model coupled with a size-resolved aerosol model. Modeled aerosol mass, number, and particle size distribution are within variability of data obtained from multiple-airborne in situ measurements. Simulations suggest that Rim Fire smoke may block 4-6% of sunlight energy reaching the surface, with a dimming efficiency around 120-150Wm(-2) per unit aerosol optical depth in the midvisible at13:00-15:00 local time. Underestimation of simulated smoke single scattering albedo at midvisible by 0.04 suggests that the model overestimates either the particle size or the absorption due to black carbon. This study shows that exceptional events like the 2013 Rim Fire can be simulated by a climate model with 1 degrees resolution with overall good skill, although that resolution is still not sufficient to resolve the smoke peak near the source region.

TI Probing the Reaction Mechanism of Aluminum/Poly(vinylidene fluoride)
Composites
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY B
LA English
DT Article
ID THERMAL-DEGRADATION; COMBUSTION; NANOCOMPOSITES
AB Energetic thin films with high mass loadings of nanosized components have been recently fabricated using electrospray deposition. These films are composed of aluminum nanoparticles (nAl) homogeneously dispersed in an energetic fluoropolymer binder, poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF). The nascent oxide shell of the nAl has been previously shown to undergo a preignition reaction (PIR) with fluoropolymers such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). This work examines the PIR between alumina and PVDF to further explain the reaction mechanism of the Al/PVDF system. Temperature jump (T-jump) ignition experiments in air, argon, and vacuum environments showed that the nAl is fluorinated by gas phase species due to a decrease in reactivity in a vacuum. Thermogravimetric analysis coupled with differential scanning calorimetry (TGA/DSC) was used to confirm the occurrence of a PIR, and gas phase products during the PIR and fluorination of nAl were investigated with temperature jump time-of-flight mass spectrometry (T-jump TOFMS). Results show a direct correlation between the amount of alumina in the PVDF film and the relative signal intensity of hydrogen fluoride release (HF). Although the PIR between alumina and PVDF plays an important role in the Al/PVDF reaction mechanism, burn speeds of Al/PVDF films containing additional pure alumina particles showed no burn speed enhancement.

TI Energetic Salts Based on 3,5-Bis(dinitromethyl)-1,2,4-triazole Monoanion

DT Article
ID FOX-7; 1,1-DIAMINO-2,2-DINITROETHYLENE; SENSITIVITY; DERIVATIVES
AB Molecular modification of known explosives is considered to be an efficient route to design new energetic materials. A new family of energetic salts based on the 3,5-bis(dinitromethyl)-1,2,4-triazole monoanion and dianion were controllably synthesized by using 1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethene as a precursor. X-ray structure determination of monohydrazinium 3,5-bis(dinitromethyl)-1,2,4-triazolate (5) and monoammonium (6) and diammonium 3,5-bis(dinitromethyl)-1,2,4-triazolate hydrate (8 center dot H2O) further confirmed the structures of these anions. In addition, as supported by X-ray data, in the monoanion system, the roving proton on the ring nitrogen rather than on the gem-dinitro carbon results in extensive hydrogen-bonding interactions and higher packing coefficients. Interestingly, 5 and 6 possess the highest calculated crystal densities, 1.965 and 1.957 g cm(-3) at 150 K, for hydrazinium and ammonium energetic salts, respectively. Energetic evaluation indicates that 5 (detonation velocity nu(D) = 9086 m s(-1); detonation pressure P = 38.7 GPa) and 6 (nu(D), 9271 m s(-1); P = 41.0 GPa) exhibit great detonation properties, superior to those of current highly explosive benchmarks, such as 1,3,5-trinitroperhydro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) and octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMX).

AB 4-Iodo-1H-1,2,3-triazole (2) and 4,5-diiodo-1H-1,2,3-triazole (3) were synthesized using an efficient and viable synthetic route. The N-alkylation of 3 resulted in the formation of two tautomers. The N-alkyldiiodo-triazoles were nitrated with 100% nitric acid to form monoiodo mononitro-triazoles. The structures of 2-methyl-4,5-dilodo-1,2,3-triazole (5), 1-ethyl-4,5-diiodo-1,2,3-triazole (6), 1-methyl-4-nitro-5-iodo-1,2,3-triazole (8) and 1-ethyl-4-nitro-5-iodo-1,2,3-triazole (10) were confirmed by X-ray crystal analysis. All of the new triazoles were fully characterized via NMR, and infrared spectra, and elemental analyses as well as by their thermal and sensitivity properties. Decomposition products calculated using Cheetah 7 software show that these iodo nitro triazoles liberate iodine.

AB This study demonstrated the exfoliation of a two-dimensional (2D) beta-Ga2O3 nano-belt and subsequent processing into a thin film transistor structure. This mechanical exfoliation and transfer method produces beta-Ga2O3 nano-belts with a pristine surface as well as a continuous defect-free interface with the SiO2/Si substrate. This beta-Ga2O3 nano-belt based transistor displayed an on/off ratio that increased from approximately 10(4) to 10(7) over the operating temperature range of 20 degrees C to 250 degrees C. No electrical breakdown was observed in our measurements up to V-DS = +40 V and V-GS = -60 V between 25 degrees C and 250 degrees C. Additionally, the electrical characteristics were not degraded after a month-long storage in ambient air. The demonstration of high-temperature/high-voltage operation of quasi-2D beta-Ga2O3 nano-belts contrasts with traditional 2D materials such as transition metal dichalcogenides that intrinsically have limited temperature and power operational envelopes owing to their narrow bandgap. This work motivates the application of 2D beta-Ga2O3 to high power nano-electronic devices for harsh environments such as high temperature chemical sensors and photodetectors as well as the miniaturization of power circuits and cooling systems in nano-electronics.

KINASE; PFMRK; CDK; INHIBITORS; EXPRESSION; DISCOVERY; IDENTIFICATION
AB Background
Artemisinin-induced dormancy provides a plausible explanation for recrudescence following artemisinin monotherapy. This phenomenon shares similarities with cell cycle arrest where cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) and cyclins play an important role.
Methods
Transcription profiles of Plasmodium falciparum CDKs and cyclins before and after dihydroartemisinin (DHA) treatment in three parasite lines, and the effect of CDK inhibitors on parasite recovery from DHA-induced dormancy were investigated.
Results
After DHA treatment, parasites enter a dormancy phase followed by a recovery phase. During the dormancy phase parasites up-regulate pfcrk1, pfcrk4, pfcyc2 and pfcyc4, and down-regulate pfmrk, pfpk5, pfpk6, pfcrk3, pfcyc1 and pfcyc3. When entering the recovery phase parasites immediately up-regulate all CDK and cyclin genes. Three CDK inhibitors, olomoucine, WR636638 and roscovitine, produced distinct effects on different phases of DHA-induced dormancy, blocking parasites recovery.
Conclusions
The up-regulation of PfCRK1 and PfCRK4, and down regulation of other CDKs and cyclins correlate with parasite survival in the dormant state. Changes in CDK expression are likely to negatively regulate parasite progression from G1 to S phase. These findings provide new insights into the mechanism of artemisinin-induced dormancy and cell cycle regulation of P. falciparum, opening new opportunities for preventing recrudescence following artemisinin treatment.

AB Electromagnetic radiation from blazar jets often displays strong variability, extending from radio to gamma-ray frequencies. In a few cases, this variability has been characterized using Fourier time lags, such as those detected in the X-rays from Mrk 421 using BeppoSAX. The lack of a theoretical framework to interpret the data has motivated us to develop a new model for the formation of the X-ray spectrum and the time lags in blazar jets based on a transport equation including terms describing stochastic Fermi acceleration, synchrotron losses, shock acceleration, adiabatic expansion, and spatial diffusion. We derive the exact solution for the Fourier transform of the electron distribution and use it to compute the Fourier transform of the synchrotron radiation spectrum and the associated X-ray time lags. The same theoretical framework is also used to compute the peak flare X-ray spectrum, assuming that a steady-state electron distribution is achieved during the peak of the flare. The model parameters are constrained by comparing the theoretical predictions with the observational data for Mrk 421. The resulting integrated model yields, for the first time, a complete first-principles physical explanation for both the formation of the observed time lags and the shape of the peak flare X-ray spectrum. It also yields direct estimates of the strength of the shock and the stochastic magnetohydrodynamical wave acceleration components in the Mrk 421 jet.

TI AMENDED RESULTS FOR HARD X-RAY EMISSION BY NON-THERMAL THICK TARGET
RECOMBINATION IN SOLAR FLARES

AB Brown & Mallik and the corresponding corrigendum Brown et al. presented expressions for non-thermal recombination (NTR) in the collisionally thin- and thick-target regimes, claiming that the process could account for a substantial part of the hard X-ray continuum in solar flares usually attributed entirely to thermal and non-thermal bremsstrahlung (NTB). However, we have found the thick-target expression to become unphysical for low cut-offs in the injected electron energy spectrum. We trace this to an error in the derivation, derive a corrected version that is real-valued and continuous for all photon energies and cut-offs, and show that, for thick targets, Brown et al. overestimated NTR emission at small photon energies. The regime of small cut-offs and large spectral indices involve large (reducing) correction factors but in some other thick-target parameter regimes NTR/NTB can still be of the order of unity. We comment on the importance of these results to flare and microflare modeling and spectral fitting. An empirical fit to our results shows that the peak NTR contribution comprises over half of the hard X-ray signal if delta greater than or similar to 6(E-0C/4 ke V)(0.4)

TI THE MUSCLES TREASURY SURVEY. II. INTRINSIC LY alpha AND EXTREME
ULTRAVIOLET SPECTRA OF K AND M DWARFS WITH EXOPLANETS

AB The ultraviolet (UV) spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of low-mass (K- and M-type) stars play a critical role in the heating and chemistry of exoplanet atmospheres, but are not observationally well-constrained. Direct observations of the intrinsic flux of the Ly alpha line (the dominant source of UV photons from low-mass stars) are challenging, as interstellar HI absorbs the entire line core for even the closest stars. To address the existing gap in empirical constraints on the UV flux of K and M dwarfs, the MUSCLES Hubble Space Telescope Treasury Survey has obtained UV observations of 11 nearby M and K dwarfs hosting exoplanets. This paper presents the Ly alpha and extreme-UV spectral reconstructions for the MUSCLES targets. Most targets are optically inactive, but all exhibit significant UV activity. We use a Markov Chain Monte Carlo technique to correct the observed Ly alpha profiles for interstellar absorption, and we employ empirical relations to compute the extreme-UV SED from the intrinsic Ly alpha flux in similar to 100 angstrom bins from 100-1170 angstrom. The reconstructed Ly alpha profiles have 300 km s(-1) broad cores, while >1% of the total intrinsic Ly alpha flux is measured in extended wings between 300 and 1200 km s(-1). The Ly alpha surface flux positively correlates with the Mg II surface flux and negatively correlates with the stellar rotation period. Stars with larger Ly alpha surface flux also tend to have larger surface flux in ions formed at higher temperatures, but these correlations remain statistically insignificant in our sample of 11 stars. We also present H I column density measurements for 10 new sightlines through the local interstellar medium.

TI MINUTE-TIMESCALE > 100 MeV gamma-RAY VARIABILITY DURING THE GIANT

AB On 2015 June 16, Fermi- LAT observed a giant outburst from the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 279 with a peak >100 MeV flux of similar to 3.6 x 10(-5) photons cm(-2) s(-1), averaged over orbital period intervals. It is historically the highest gamma-ray flux observed from the source, including past EGRET observations, with the gamma-ray isotropic luminosity reaching similar to 10(49) erg s(-1). During the outburst, the Fermi spacecraft, which has an orbital period of 95.4 minutes, was operated in a special pointing mode to optimize the exposure for 3C 279. For the first time, significant flux variability at sub-orbital timescales was found in blazar observations by Fermi- LAT. The source flux variability was resolved down to 2-minute binned timescales, with flux doubling times of less than 5 minutes. The observed minute-scale variability suggests a very compact emission region at hundreds of Schwarzschild radii from the central engine in conical jet models. A minimum bulk jet Lorentz factor (Gamma) of 35 is necessary to avoid both internal gamma-ray absorption and super-Eddington jet power. In the standard external radiation Comptonization scenario, G should be at least 50 to avoid overproducing the synchrotron self-Compton component. However, this predicts extremely low magnetization (similar to 5 x 10(-4)). Equipartition requires Gamma as high as 120, unless the emitting region is a small fraction of the dissipation region. Alternatively, we consider. rays originating as synchrotron radiation of gamma e similar to 1.6 x 10(6) electrons, in a magnetic field B similar to 1.3 kG, accelerated by strong electric fields E similar to B in the process of magnetoluminescence. At such short distance scales, one cannot immediately exclude the production of gamma-rays in hadronic processes.

AB A class of three-point sixth-order multiple-root finders and the dynamics behind their extraneous fixed points are investigated by extending modified Newton-like methods with the introduction of the multivariate weight functions in the intermediate steps. The multivariate weight functions dependent on function-to-function ratios play a key role in constructing higher-order iterative methods. Extensive investigation of extraneous fixed points of the proposed iterative methods is carried out for the study of the dynamics associated with corresponding basins of attraction. Numerical experiments applied to a number of test equations strongly support the underlying theory pursued in this paper. Relevant dynamics of the proposed methods is well presented with a variety of illustrative basins of attraction applied to various test polynomials. (c) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

detection; Decomposition pathway

AB Hexamethylene triperoxide diamine (HMTD) is an easily synthesized and highly sensitive organic peroxide frequently used as a primary explosive. The vapor pressure of HMTD is very low, impeding vapor detection, especially when compared to other peroxide explosives, such as triacetone triperoxide (TATP) or diacetone diperoxide (DADP). Despite this fact, HMTD has a perceptible odor that could be utilized in the indirect detection of HMTD vapor. Headspace measurements above solid HMTD samples confirm that HMTD readily decomposes under ambient conditions to form highly volatile products that include formic acid, ammonia, trimethylamine and formamides. The presence and quantity of these compounds are affected by storage condition, time, and synthetic method, with synthetic method having the most significant effect on the content of the headspace. A kinetic study of HMTD decomposition in solution indicated a correlation between degradation rate and the presence of decomposition species identified in the headspace, and provided further insight into the mechanism of decomposition. The study provided evidence for a proton assisted decomposition reaction with water, as well as an intramolecular decomposition process facilitated by the presence of water.

AB We report on a terrestrial gamma ray flash (TGF) that occurred on 15 August 2014 coincident with an altitude-triggered lightning at the International Center for Lightning Research and Testing (ICLRT) in North Central Florida. The TGF was observed by a ground-level network of gamma ray, close electric field, distant magnetic field, Lightning Mapping Array (LMA), optical, and radar measurements. Simultaneous gamma ray and LMA data indicate that the upward positive leader of the triggered lightning flash induced relativistic runaway electron avalanches when the leader tip was at about 3.5 km altitude, resulting in the observed TGF. Channel luminosity and electric field data show that there was an initial continuous current (ICC) pulse in the lightning channel to ground during the time of the TGF. Modeling of the observed ICC pulse electric fields measured at close range (100-200 m) indicates that the ICC pulse current had both a slow and fast component (full widths at half maximum of 235 mu s and 59 mu s) and that the fast component was more or less coincident with the TGF, suggesting a physical association between the relativistic runaway electron avalanches and the ICC pulse observed at ground. Our ICC pulse model reproduces moderately well the measured close electric fields at the ICLRT as well as three independent magnetic field measurements made about 250 km away. Radar and LMA data suggest that there was negative charge near the region in which the TGF was initiated.

AB A critical element for the design, characterization, and certification of materials and products produced by additive manufacturing processes is the ability to accurately and efficiently model the associated materials and processes. This is necessary for tailoring these processes to endow the associated products with proper geometrical and functional features. In an effort to address these needs in a computationally elegant and at the same time physically realistic manner, this paper presents the development of a methodology for simulating particle-based additive manufacturing processes, which employs the Discrete Element Method (DEM) extended to incorporate thermal physics. The details of the DEM-based methodology are presented first and the approach is demonstrated on a pair of test problems involving laser sintering of metal powders. The paper concludes with a discussion on how this approach may be generalized to broader classes of additive manufacturing systems, and details are given regarding future work necessary to further develop the present methodology.

AB Two metal-quinoline complexes, Fe(III)-8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid (Fe-HQS) and Er(III)-8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid (Er-HQS), were used as sensitizers of TiO2 for improving visible light photocatalytic activity of TiO2. UV-vis spectra, X-ray Diffraction, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscope and Transmission Electron Microscope were put to use to characterize the structure and morphology of Fe-HQS-TiO2 and Er-HQS-TiO2. The effects of interfacial electron transfer and energy level matching between each complex and TiO2 were researched intensively. Er-HQS-TiO2 and Fe-HQS-TiO2 exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity on photodecomposition of phenol in aqueous solution under visible light irradiation comparing to that of pure TiO2. According to photoelectrochemical response property and theoretical calculation of energy levels, two possible energy matching modes and photoelectron transmission pathways were proposed to explain the effects of Fe-HQS and Er-HQS on the interfacial interaction between metal-HQS complex and TiO2, and their different photocatalytic activities under visible light irradiation. The work in this paper indicated that metal-HQS complex with appropriate electronic structure and HOMO-LUMO energy levels relative to the band gap of TiO2 played a major role in improving TiO2 photocatalytic activity.

AB The effect of compressive stress, in the presence of an electrical field along the [011] direction, on the phase transition stability of [0 (1) over bar1] oriented and [011] poled relaxor (1 - x)Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 (PZN-PT) single crystals in the transverse length extensional 31-mode geometry is investigated. The thermal, electrical, and mechanical stability range for operation lacking elastic instabilities is identified and compared with conventional 33 and 32-mode geometries with the near morphotropic composition of x similar to 0.055. It is found that the 31-mode geometry retains the stable, room temperature ferroelectric rhombohedral (R) symmetry up to and exceeding compressive stresses, along the [0 (1) over bar1] direction, of 90 MPa under zero field conditions. Under zero stress conditions, a phase transformation from the stable rhombohedral symmetry to the low symmetry ferroelectric orthorhombic (O) phase occurs in the presence of an electric field of 0.85 MV/m. Stabilization of the R-O phase transformation against electric field drive occurs as a function of compressive prestress, similar to the 33-mode geometry. And, under sufficiently large compressive stress, an R-T (or R-M-A-T) transformation is identified and discussed.

AB Background: High EREG and AREG expression, and left-sided primary tumours are associated with superior efficacy of anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) therapy in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC), but a unifying explanation of these findings is lacking.
Methods: RNA-seq, gene expression arrays, and DNA methylation profiling were completed on 179 CRC tumours. Results were validated using independent The Cancer Genome Atlas data sets. An independent cohort of 198 KRAS wild-type metastatic CRC tumours was tested for CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) status, and progression-free survival (PFS) with the first anti-EGFR regimen was retrospectively determined.
Results: EREG and AREG expression was highly inversely correlated with methylation and was inversely associated with right-sided primary tumour, BRAF mutation, and CIMP-high status. Treatment of CRC cell lines with hypomethylating agents decreased methylation and increased expression of EREG. Inferior PFS with anti-EGFR therapy was associated with CIMP-high status, BRAF mutation, NRAS mutation, and right-sided primary tumour on univariate analysis. Among known BRAF/NRAS wild-type tumours, inferior PFS remained associated with CIMP-high status (median PFS 5.6 vs 9.0 mo, P = 0.023).
Conclusions: EREG and AREG are strongly regulated by methylation, and their expression is associated with CIMP status and primary tumour site, which may explain the association of primary tumour site and EREG/AREG expression with anti-EGFR therapy efficacy.

AB Orthorhombic niobium pentoxide (T-Nb2O5) offers high capacitance and fast charging-discharging rate capabilities when used as an electrode material for Li-ion capacitors. A homogeneous distribution of T-Nb2O5 nano particles in a highly conductive matrix represents a promising approach to maximize its energy and power densities. Here we report a one-step CO2 oxidation of two-dimensional (2D) Nb2CTx, a member of the MXenes family of 2D transition metal carbides, which leads to a hierarchical hybrid material with T-Nb2O5 nanoparticles uniformly supported on the surface of Nb2CTx sheets with disordered carbon. The oxidation temperature, duration, and CO2 flow rate determine the T-Nb2O5 crystallite size as well as the structure, composition, and the charge storage properties of the hybrid material. Fifty micrometer thick electrodes of the hybrid material exhibit high capacitance (330 C g(-1) and 660 mF cm(-2) at a charge-discharge time of 4 min) and good cycling performance in a nonaqueous lithium electrolyte. The charge storage kinetics are dominated by a surface-controlled process. The observed electrochemical performance is attributed to the intrinsic pseudocapacitive response and excellent energy storage capability of T-Nb2O5 coupled with the fast charge transfer pathways provided by the conductive 2D Nb2CTx sheets and the as-formed disordered carbon.

TI Strain-assisted magnetization reversal in Co/Ni multilayers with
perpendicular magnetic anisotropy
SO SCIENTIFIC REPORTS
LA English
DT Article
ID FILMS
AB Multifunctional materials composed of ultrathin magnetic films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy combined with ferroelectric substrates represent a new approach toward low power, fast, high density spintronics. Here we demonstrate Co/Ni multilayered films with tunable saturation magnetization and perpendicular anisotropy grown directly on ferroelectric PZT [Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O-3] substrate plates. Electric fields up to +/- 2 MV/m expand the PZT by 0.1% and generate at least 0.02% in-plane compression in the Co/Ni multilayered film. Modifying the strain with a voltage can reduce the coercive field by over 30%. We also demonstrate that alternating in-plane tensile and compressive strains (less than 0.01%) can be used to propagate magnetic domain walls. This ability to manipulate high anisotropy magnetic thin films could prove useful for lowering the switching energy for magnetic elements in future voltage-controlled spintronic devices.

TI Effects of diamagnetic Ga dilution on the Faraday response of
bismuth-doped iron garnet films
SO APPLIED PHYSICS LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID FIELD; MAGNETIZATION
AB In bismuth-doped iron garnets, diamagnetic dilution of Fe with Ga is a well-known method to increase the Faraday rotation response under externally applied magnetic fields. It is found, however, that while this method improves responsivity at larger field strengths, the responsivity under smaller fields (which are more typical in sensing applications) is generally unaffected by Ga doping. The data indicate that the low-field responsivity is limited by anomalous pinning effects in the rotational magnetization process of the ferromagnetic domains. To overcome this, a magnetic biasing technique was developed, which enhances responsivity by activating Barkhausen steps in the films to free the domains from their pinning sites.

TI Enhancements of Faraday rotation through ferromagnetic domain matching
in arrayed magneto-optic films
SO APPLIED PHYSICS LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID SENSORS
AB In linear arrays of optically probed bismuth-doped iron garnet films, the Faraday rotation signal produced by an external magnetic field is a complex function of film shapes, stacking geometries, optical path length, and insertion losses. Studies of arrayed responsivities under various configurations reveal a proximity coupling effect between ferromagnetic domains of adjacent films, which enhances Faraday rotation by minimizing demagnetization effects at the interfaces. The effect is activated by matching ferromagnetic domain patterns in adjacent films and has resulted in over a twofold improvement in detection sensitivities when the arrays were configured as polarimetric magneto-optic sensors.

We also present new spectroscopic redshifts for 11 sources observed with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope. While no new SBBHs can be confirmed from these observations, we have identified 24 CSOs in the sample, 15 of which are newly designated, and refuted 52 candidates leaving 33 unconfirmed candidates. This is the first large uniform sample of CSOs which can be used to elicit some of the general properties of these sources, including morphological evolution and environmental interaction. We have detected polarized emission from two of these CSOs the properties of which are consistent with active galactic nuclei unification schemes.

AB It is well established that elemental abundances vary in the solar atmosphere and that this variation is organized by first ionization potential (FIP). Previous studies have shown that in the solar corona, low-FIP elements such as Fe, Si, Mg, and Ca, are generally enriched relative to high-FIP elements such as C, N, O, Ar, and Ne. In this paper we report on measurements of plasma composition made during impulsive heating events observed at transition region temperatures with the Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on Hinode. During these events the intensities of O IV, V, and VI emission lines are enhanced relative to emission lines from Mg V, VI, and VII and Si VI and VII, and indicate a composition close to that of the photosphere. Long-lived coronal fan structures, in contrast, show an enrichment of low-FIP elements. We conjecture that the plasma composition is an important signature of the coronal heating process, with impulsive heating leading to the evaporation of unfractionated material from the lower layers of the solar atmosphere and higher-frequency heating leading to long-lived structures and the accumulation of low- FIP elements in the corona.

AB We report on the measurement of J/psi production in the dielectron channel at midrapidity (vertical bar y vertical bar < 1) in p + p and d + Au collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV from the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The transverse momentum p(T) spectra in p + p for pT < 4 GeV/c and d + Au collisions for p(T) < 3 GeV/c are presented. These measurements extend the STAR coverage for J/psi production in p + p collisions to low p(T). The < p(T)(2)> from the measured J/psi invariant cross section in p + p and d + Au collisions are evaluated and compared to similar measurements at other collision energies. The nuclear modification factor for J/psi is extracted as a function of pT and collision centrality in d + Au and compared to model calculations using the modified nuclear parton distribution function and a final-state J/psi nuclear absorption cross section.

TI Tunneling Time and Weak Measurement in Strong Field Ionization
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID TRAVERSAL TIME; DELAY-TIME; SCATTERING; TRAJECTORIES; PARTICLE; REAL;
WAVE
AB Tunneling delays represent a hotly debated topic, with many conflicting definitions and little consensus on when and if such definitions accurately describe the physical observables. Here, we relate these different definitions to distinct experimental observables in strong field ionization, finding that two definitions, Larmor time and Bohmian time, are compatible with the attoclock observable and the resonance lifetime of a bound state, respectively. Both of these definitions are closely connected to the theory of weak measurement, with Larmor time being the weak measurement value of tunneling time and Bohmian trajectory corresponding to the average particle trajectory, which has been recently reconstructed using weak measurement in a two-slit experiment [S. Kocsis, B. Braverman, S. Ravets, M. J. Stevens, R. P. Mirin, L. K. Shalm, and A. M. Steinberg, Science 332, 1170 (2011)]. We demonstrate a big discrepancy in strong field ionization between the Bohmian and weak measurement values of tunneling time, and we suggest this arises because the tunneling time is calculated for a small probability postselected ensemble of electrons. Our results have important implications for the interpretation of experiments in attosecond science, suggesting that tunneling is unlikely to be an instantaneous process.

TI Cold, clumpy accretion onto an active supermassive black hole

AB Supermassive black holes in galaxy centres can grow by the accretion of gas, liberating energy that might regulate star formation on galaxy-wide scales(1-3). The nature of the gaseous fuel reservoirs that power black hole growth is nevertheless largely unconstrained by observations, and is instead routinely simplified as a smooth, spherical inflow of very hot gas(4). Recent theory(5-7) and simulations(8-10) instead predict that accretion can be dominated by a stochastic, clumpy distribution of very cold molecular clouds-a departure from the 'hot mode' accretion model-although unambiguous observational support for this prediction remains elusive. Here we report observations that reveal a cold, clumpy accretion flow towards a supermassive black hole fuel reservoir in the nucleus of the Abell 2597 Brightest Cluster Galaxy (BCG), a nearby (redshift z = 0.0821) giant elliptical galaxy surrounded by a dense halo of hot plasma(11-13). Under the right conditions, thermal instabilities produce a rain of cold clouds that fall towards the galaxy's centre(14), sustaining star formation amid a kiloparsec-scale molecular nebula that is found at its core(15). The observations show that these cold clouds also fuel black hole accretion, revealing 'shadows' cast by the molecular clouds as they move inward at about 300 kilometres per second towards the active supermassive black hole, which serves as a bright backlight. Corroborating evidence from prior observations(16) of warmer atomic gas at extremely high spatial resolution(17), along with simple arguments based on geometry and probability, indicate that these clouds are within the innermost hundred parsecs of the black hole, and falling closer towards it.

AB Laser-based materials processing techniques are gaining widespread use in micro-manufacturing applications. The use of laser microfabrication techniques enables the processing of micro-and nanostructures from a wide range of materials and geometries without the need for masking and etching steps commonly associated with photolithography. This review aims to describe the broad applications space covered by laser-based micro-and nanoprocessing techniques and the benefits offered by the use of lasers in micro-manufacturing processes. Given their non-lithographic nature, these processes are also referred to as laser direct-write and constitute some of the earliest demonstrations of 3D printing or additive manufacturing at the microscale. As this review will show, the use of lasers enables precise control of the various types of processing steps-from subtractive to additive-over a wide range of scales with an extensive materials palette. Overall, laser-based direct-write techniques offer multiple modes of operation including the removal (via ablative processes) and addition (via photopolymerization or printing) of most classes of materials using the same equipment in many cases. The versatility provided by these multi-function, multi-material and multi-scale laser micro-manufacturing processes cannot be matched by photolithography nor with other direct-write microfabrication techniques and offer unique opportunities for current and future 3D micro-manufacturing applications.

AB We describe a self-assembling DNA-based nanosystem for interrogating molecular interactions. The nanosystem contains a rigid supporting dumbbell-shaped frame, a cylindrical central core, and a mobile ring that is coaxial with the core. Motion of the ring is influenced by several control elements whose force-generating capability is based on the transition of single-stranded DNA to double-stranded DNA. These forces can be directed to act in opposition to adhesive forces between the ring and the frame thereby providing a mechanism for molecular detection and interrogation at the ring-frame interface. As proof of principle we use this system to evaluate base stacking adhesion and demonstrate detection of a soluble nucleic acid viral genome mimic.

ID EMISSION; PHOTONS
AB The optical quality of site-controlled quantum dots is typically assessed by off-resonant photoluminescence spectroscopy, and emission linewidth is the most common figure of merit. Here, we combine photoluminescence and resonance fluorescence spectroscopy to obtain a more complete picture of site-controlled quantum dots embedded in a charge injection device. Although resonant and non-resonant linewidths are nearly as small as those of randomly nucleated dots, other optical properties show clear evidence of influence from defects introduced by the nanofabrication process. We demonstrate optical spin pumping and spin-flip Raman processes, which are important functions for use in quantum information applications. Published by AIP Publishing.

AB Efforts to create new nanoparticle-biomolecule hybrids for diverse applications including biosensing, theranostics, drug delivery, and even biocomputation continue to grow at an unprecedented rate. As the composite designs become more sophisticated, new and unanticipated physicochemical phenomena are emerging at the nanomaterial-biological interface. These phenomena arise from two interrelated factors, namely, the novel architecture of nanoparticle bioconjugates and the unique physicochemical properties of their interfacial environment. Here we examine how the augmented functionality imparted by such hybrid structures, including accessing concentric energy transfer, enhanced enzymatic activity, and sensitivity to electric fields, is leading to new applications. We discuss some lesser understood phenomena that arise at the nanoparticle interface, such as the complex and confounding issue of protein corona formation, along with their unexpected benefits. Overall, understanding these complex phenomena will improve the design of composite materials while uncovering new opportunities for their application.

AB Topological magnon insulators are a new class of magnetic materials that possess topologically nontrivial magnon bands. As a result, magnons in these materials display properties analogous to those of electrons in topological insulators. Here we present magnetization, specific heat, and neutron scattering measurements of the ferromagnetic kagome magnet Cu(1,3-bdc). Our measurements provide a detailed description of the magnetic structure and interactions in this material and confirm that it is an ideal prototype for topological magnon physics in a system with a simple spin Hamiltonian.

AB Staphylococcal skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs), especially those due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are an important public health issue for the military. Limited data exist regarding the prevalence of S. aureus colonization in the shipboard setting. We conducted a cross-sectional, observational study to determine the point prevalence of S. aureus colonization among military personnel onboard a naval vessel. Asymptomatic active duty personnel completed a survey for risk factors associated with colonization and SSTIs. Culture specimens were obtained from the anterior nares, pharynx, groin, and perirectal regions. MRSA isolates underwent testing for antimicrobial resistance, virulence factors, and pulsed-field type. 400 individuals were enrolled, 198 (49.5%) of whom were colonized with S. aureus, with MRSA identified in 14 participants (3.5%). No significant risk factors were associated with MRSA colonization. USA800 was the most common colonizing MRSA strain in the cohort and was detected in 10 participants (71%). Two participants (14%) were colonized with USA300 MRSA. In this first report of S. aureus epidemiology in a shipboard setting, we observed high rates of S. aureus and MRSA colonization.

AB Objectives: Using data from a prospective cohort study of U.S. service members who joined after September 11, 2001 to determine incidence rates and comorbidities of mental and behavioral disorders. Methods: Calculated age and sex adjusted incidence rates of mental and behavioral conditions determined by validated instruments and electronic medical records. Results: Of 10,671 service members, 3,379 (32%) deployed between baseline and follow-up, of whom 49% reported combat experience. Combat deployers had highest incidence rates of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (25 cases/1,000 person-years [PY]), panic/anxiety (21/1,000 PY), and any mental disorder (34/1,000 PY). Nondeployers had substantial rates of mental conditions (11, 13, and 18 cases/1,000 PY). Among combat deployers, 12% screened positive for mental disorder, 59% binge drinking, 16% alcohol problem, 19% cigarette smoking, and 20% smokeless tobacco at follow-up. Of those with recent PTSD, 73% concurrently developed >1 incident mental or behavioral conditions. Of those screening positive for PTSD, 11% had electronic medical record diagnosis. Conclusions: U.S. service members joining during recent conflicts experienced high rates of mental and behavioral disorders. Highest rates were among combat deployers. Most cases were not represented in medical codes, suggesting targeted interventions are needed to address the burden of mental disorders among service members and Veterans.

AB Biocathode communities are of interest for a variety of applications, including electrosynthesis, bioremediation, and biosensors, yet much remains to be understood about the biological processes that occur to enable these communities to grow. One major difficulty in understanding these communities is that the critical autotrophic organisms are difficult to cultivate. An uncultivated, electroautotrophic bacterium previously identified as an uncultivated member of the family Chromatiaceae appears to be a key organism in an autotrophic biocathode microbial community. Metagenomic, metaproteomic and metatranscriptomic characterization of this community indicates that there is likely a single organism that utilizes electrons from the cathode to fix CO2, yet this organism has not been obtained in pure culture. Fluorescence in situ hybridization reveals that the organism grows as rod-shaped cells approximately 1.8 x 0.6 mu m, and forms large clumps on the cathode. The genomic DNA G+C content was 59.2 mol%. Here we identify the key features of this organism and propose 'Candidatus Tenderia electrophaga', within the Gammaproteobacteria on the basis of low nucleotide and predicted protein sequence identity to known members of the orders Chromatiales and Thiotrichales.

ID MICROSOFT-EXCEL
AB Simulation is often used in papers and studies across diverse fields like logistics, supply chains, health care, manufacturing, and defense. But simulations must be properly done, including input and model building, designing/ analyzing the simulations, and model verification/validation. Unfortunately, simulation studies are not always done well, even though great effort could have gone into the model building and coding. This paper specifies, in brief outline, what authors and researchers need to do, when using simulation as a main tool, to build a convincing case for their findings and conclusions. Considerations on the input side of the model are enumerated, including specification of input distributions and processes; nonstationarity; random-number generation; and generating realizations of random variables and random processes. On the output side are issues of statistical analysis of simulation output; comparison, selection, and ranking of simulated scenarios; variance reduction; and optimum seeking. Involving matters on both the input and output sides are the essential activities of verification and validation. The intent is to establish expectations on what acceptable papers need to do if using simulation, and to serve as a guideline to applied simulation studies. Such papers and studies will then be more valid, more precise, more useful, and ultimately more convincing.

AB A two-way nested 4d-variational data assimilation system is implemented in the Eastern Bering Sea (EBS) to investigate changes in circulation and thermodynamic state for a 3.8 year period. Assimilated observations include data from 19 moorings deployed on the shelf and in the Bering Strait, 1705 hydrographic stations occupied during eight surveys, and remotely sensed sea surface temperature and sea surface height (SSH) data. Validation of the presented 4dVar reanalysis against the output of two sequential data-assimilative systems (the Bering Ecosystem Study ice-ocean Modeling and Assimilation System (BESTMAS) and the Arctic Cap Nowcast-Forecast System (ACNFS)) has shown that the product is more consistent with the observed transports in the Bering Strait and in the EBS interior both in terms of their magnitude and time variability. Analysis of the data-optimized solution quantifies a sequence of wind-forced events that resulted in the anomalous heat and freshwater transports through the Bering Strait, including a 28 day long flow reversal that occurred in November 2009 and carried Siberian Coastal Current water down to the Gulf of Anadyr. Lagrangian study of the Arctic-bound Pacific waters indicates the extreme importance of the cross-shelf exchange along the path of the Bering Slope Current and quantifies the spectrum of residence times for the waters entering EBS through Unimak Pass and through Aleutian passages. Residence times in the EBS cold pool are diagnosed to be 2-3 times longer than those in the surrounding waters.

AB Use of ocean color remote sensing to understand the effects of environmental changes and anthropogenic activities on estuarine and coastal waters requires the capability to measure and track optically detectable complex biogeochemical processes. An important remote sensor design consideration is the minimum spatial resolution required to resolve key ocean features of physical and biological significance. The spatial scale of variability in optical properties of coastal waters has been investigated using continuous, along-track measurements collected using instruments deployed from ships, aircraft, and satellites. We defined the average coefficient of variance, (CV) over bar (a), within an image pixel as the primary statistical measure of subpixel variability and investigated how (CV) over bar (a)changes as a function of the Ground Sampling Distance (GSD). In general, d (CV) over bar (a)/dGSD is positive, indicating that the subpixel variability increases with GSD. The relationship between (CV) over bar (a) and GSD is generally nonlinear and the greatest rate of change occurs at small spatial scales. Points of distinct transition in the relationship between (CV) over bar (a) and GSD are evident between 75 and 600 m, varying depending on the location and the optical parameter, and representing the GSD above which most of the spatial variability due to small-scale features is subsumed within a pixel. At GSDs greater than the transition point, most of the small-scale variability occurs at subpixel scales and, therefore, cannot be resolved. On average, the transition GSD is around 200 m. The results have application in both sensor design and in situ sampling strategy in support of coastal remote sensing operations.

AB For nine of the strongest geomagnetic storms in solar cycle 24 we characterize, quantify, and compare the impacts on ionospheric total electron content (TEC) and the U.S. Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) with the heliospheric morphology and kinematics of the responsible coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and their solar source regions. Regional TEC responses to the events are similar in many respects, especially in the initial positive phase. For the subsequent negative phase, Dst is a better indicator than ap of the magnitude of the TEC decrease. The five events that arrive between 13: 00 UT and 21: 00 UT (local daytime in the U.S.) produce large WAAS degradations, and the four events that arrive outside this time of day produce lesser or no WAAS degradation. Our sample of geoeffective events includes CMEs with only modestly fast speeds, ones that only provided glancing impacts on Earth by their shock sheaths and ones not associated with any significant flare. While all of the CMEs traveled faster than the solar wind, they nevertheless have a wide range of velocities and produced a range of Bz values; neither speed nor Bz correlates significantly with ionospheric impact. Comparison with the locations of surface activity leads to estimates of deflection for the CMEs, with the average deflection being 19 degrees. At least a few events may have missed Earth entirely in the absence of coronal deflection.

AB In this paper we demonstrate that dissipation of upward propagating tides produces significant changes in the mean temperature of the thermosphere, ranging from +19 K at solar minimum to -15 K at solar maximum in the equatorial region. Our methodology consists of measuring the differential response of the thermosphere-ionosphere-electrodynamics general circulation model (TIE-GCM) under solar minimum and solar maximum conditions to constant tidal forcing at its 97 km lower boundary, as specified by the observationally based Climatological Tidal Model of the Thermosphere. Diagnosis of the model reveals that these changes are mainly driven by 5.3 mu m nitric oxide (NO) cooling, which more efficiently cools the thermosphere at solar maximum. The main role of the tides is to modify the mean molecular oxygen densities ([O-2]) through tidal-induced advective transport, which then lead to changes in NO densities through oxygen-nitrogen chemistry. Through tidal-induced changes in temperature and O, O-2, and N-2 densities, effects on the ionosphere are also quite substantial; tidal-induced modifications to zonal-mean F region peak electron densities (NmF2) are of order -10% at solar maximum and -30% at solar minimum in the equatorial region. Our results introduce an additional consideration when attributing long-term changes in thermospheric temperature and electron densities to CO2 cooling effects alone; that is, dissipation of upward propagating tides may constitute an additional element of global change in the ionosphere-thermosphere (IT) system.

TI A set partition number system
SO AUSTRALASIAN JOURNAL OF COMBINATORICS
LA English
DT Article
AB We propose a number system that is based on set partitions. This represents the third number system that is based on combinatorial objects, the other two being combinations and permutations. A number system based on set partitions is useful in the hardware enumeration of set partitions, which is significantly faster than software enumeration. Specifically, the restricted growth string (b(0)b(1) ... b(n-1)) of a set partition pi(I) allows a unique index I to be associated with pi(I), where I is a nonnegative integer in the number system that is represented as I = b(0)omega(0)+ ... +b(n-2)omega(n-2)+b(n-1)omega(n-1). Here, omega(i) is specified by the set partition tree, a data structure derived from the generating tree of set partitions. We show another data structure, the set partition mesh, that is equivalent to the set partition tree. It also stores all set partitions but is much more compact. Indeed, it makes possible the design of hardware set partition generators for n-sets as large as n = 32, compared to the set partition tree, which limits the sets to size no greater than n = 10.

AB We have developed an unattended sensor for detecting anomalous radiation sources. The system combines several technologies to reduce size and weight, increase battery lifetime, and improve decision-making capabilities. Sixteen Cs2LiYCl6:Ce (CLYC) scintillators allow for gamma-ray spectroscopy and neutron detection in the same volume. Low-power electronics for readout, high voltage bias, and digital processing reduce the total operating power to 1.7 W. Computationally efficient analysis algorithms perform spectral anomaly detection and isotope identification. When an alarm occurs, the system transmits alarm information over a cellular modem. In this paper, we describe the overall design of the unattended sensor, present characterization results, and compare the performance to stock NaI:Tl and He-3 detectors.

AB Silicon integration of mid-infrared (MIR) photonic devices promises to enable low-cost, compact sensing and detection capabilities that are compatible with existing silicon photonic and silicon electronic technologies. Heterogeneous integration by bonding III-V wafers to silicon waveguides has been employed previously to build integrated diode lasers for wavelengths from 1310 to 2010 nm. Recently, Fabry-Perot Quantum Cascade Lasers integrated on silicon provided a 4800 nm light source for mid-infrared (MIR) silicon photonic applications. Distributed feedback (DFB) lasers are appealing for many high-sensitivity chemical spectroscopic sensing applications that require a single frequency, narrow-linewidth MIR source. While heterogeneously integrated 1550 nm DFB lasers have been demonstrated by introducing a shallow surface grating on a silicon waveguide within the active region, no mid-infrared DFB laser on silicon has been reported to date. Here we demonstrate quantum cascade DFB lasers heterogeneously integrated with silicon-on-nitride-on-insulator (SONOI) waveguides. These lasers emit over 200 mW of pulsed power at room temperature and operate up to 100 degrees C. Although the output is not single mode, the DFB grating nonetheless imposes wavelength selectivity with 22 nm of thermal tuning.

ID SEA; SECURITY
AB Maritime law enforcement responses since 2010 have sparked unprecedented attention to the intersection of human rights and maritime security. This article examines four major response areas: Drug trafficking, piracy, migration, and illegal fishing. Seminal authorities and recent judicial opinions are explored along with specific questions, such as how long a suspected criminal captured at sea may be detained aboard a warship, when lethal force may be employed, and under what circumstances may a suspicious vessel be destroyed. Courts are increasingly addressing issues once considered within the sole discretion of government officials and operational commanders. The result, unfortunately, is an ad hoc collection of judicial opinions, treaties, and multilateral agreements that lack coherence and consistency. This article sets forth an essential road map for harmonizing human rights obligations with the inherent challenges of high seas maritime law enforcement.

AB We show the use of a reconfigurable computer in computing the correlation immunity Boolean functions of up to 6 variables. Boolean functions with high correlation immunity are desired in cryptographic systems because they are immune to correlation attacks. The SRC-6 reconfigurable computer was programmed in Verilog to compute the correlation immunity of functions. This computation is performed at a rate that is 190 times faster than a conventional computer.
Our analysis of the correlation immunity TI-Vi able Boolean for 2 <= n <= 6, thus obtaining, for the first time, a complete distribution of such functions. We also compare correlation immunity with two other cryptographic properties, nonlinearity and degree.

AB A study is presented showing results of predictions of the amount of water ejected from shallow depth explosions. Measurements of the Equivalent Water Length (EWL) are determined by integrating the density along a horizontal line through the plume. These EWL values are important for the assessment of the viability of using plumes as an effective water barrier for vessel defense. The predictions are obtained using a model based on a generalized formulation of hydrodynamics using an incompressible liquid assumption. This formulation is well suited for predicting long-time bubble and plume dynamics and has been previously validated on a variety of applications including water plume predictions. The purpose of this study is to obtain estimates for EWL values at specified heights, the time length that these levels persist during the plume evolution, as well as estimates for the effects of charge depth and size.

AB Because the monsoon strongly affects India, there is a clear need for indigenous expertise in advancing the science that underlies monsoon prediction. The safety of marine transport in the tropics relies on accurate atmospheric and ocean environment predictions on weekly and longer time scales in the Indian Ocean. This need to better forecast the monsoon motivates the United States to advance basic research and support training of early career US scientists in tropical oceanography. Earlier Indian field campaigns and modeling studies indicated that an improved understanding of the interactions between the upper ocean and the atmosphere in the Bay of Bengal at finer spatial and temporal scales could lead to improved intraseasonal monsoon forecasts. The joint US Air-Sea Interactions Regional Initiative (ASIRI) and the Indian Ocean Mixing and Monsoon (OMM) program studied these interactions, resulting in scientific advances described by articles in this special issue of Oceanography. In addition to these scientific advances, and while also developing long-lasting collaborations and building indigenous Indian capability, a key component of these programs is training early career scientists from India and the United States. Training has been focusing on finescale and mixing studies of the upper ocean, air-sea interactions, and marine mammal research. Advanced methods in instrumentation, autonomous robotic platforms, experimental design, data analysis, and modeling have been emphasized. Students and scientists from India and the United States at all levels have been participating in joint cruises on Indian and US research vessels and in training participants in modern tools and methods at summer schools, at focused research workshops, and during research visits. Such activities are building new indigenous capability in India, training a new cadre of US scientists well versed in monsoon air-sea interaction, and forging strong links between Indian and US oceanographic institutions.

ID OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE; OFFSET CURVES
AB Despite the rapid advance of additive manufacturing (AM) technologies in recent years, methods to fully encase objects with multilayer, thick features are still undeveloped. This issue can be overcome by printing layers conformally about an object's natural boundary, as opposed to current methods that utilize planar layering. With this mindset, two methods are derived to generate layers between the boundaries of initial and desired geometric objects in both two and three dimensions. The first method is based on variable offset curves (VOCs) and is applicable to pairs of initial and desired geometric objects that satisfy mild compatibility conditions. In this method, layers are generated by uniformly partitioning each of the normal line segments emanating from the initial object boundary and intersecting the desired object. The second method is based on manipulated solutions to Laplace's equation and is applicable to all geometric objects. Using each method, we present examples of layer generation for several objects of varying convexities. Results are compared, and the respective advantages and limitations of each method are discussed.

AB Time-gated Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) using the unique material combination of long-lifetime terbium complexes (Tb) and semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) provides many advantages for highly sensitive and multi-plexed biosensing. Although time-gated detection can efficiently suppress sample autofluorescence and background fluorescence from directly excited FRET acceptors, Tb-to-QD FRET has rarely been exploited for biomolecular imaging. We demonstrate Tb-to-QD time-gated FRET nanoassemblies that can be applied for intra-and extracellular imaging. Immunostaining of different epitopes of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) with Tb- and QD-conjugated antibodies and nanobodies allowed for efficient Tb-to-QD FRET on A431 cell membranes. The broad usability of Tb-to-QD FRET was further demonstrated by intracellular Tb-to-QD FRET and Tb-to-QD-to-dye FRET using micro-injection as well as cell-penetrating peptide-mediated endocytosis with HeLa cells. Effective brightness enhancement by FRET from several Tb to the same QD, the use of low nanomolar concentrations, and the quick and sensitive detection void of FRET acceptor background fluorescence are important advantages for advanced intra-and extracellular imaging of biomolecular interactions.

TI Dissolvable Metal Supports for 3D Direct Metal Printing
SO 3D PRINTING AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

DT Article
ID NITRIC-ACID; CORROSION; BEHAVIOR
AB Additive manufacturing (AM) offers the ability to fabricate complex metallic structures and shapes in a layer-by-layer process. However, overhanging surfaces often require support structures to be fabricated and minimize thermally induced distortion. Unlike polymer AM processes, soluble sacrificial support materials have not been identified and characterized for metallic materials, and, as a result, support structures in 3D printed metals must be removed using additional machining operations. In this work, we demonstrate that sacrificial metal supports can be fabricated by taking advantage of differences in the chemical and electrochemical stability between different metals. As a demonstration, a stainless steel bridged structure with a 90 degrees overhang was fabricated using a carbon steel sacrificial support that was later removed through electrochemical etching in 41wt.% nitric acid with bubbling O-2. Open circuit potentials and potentiodynamic polarization curves were gathered to verify etch selectivity. No machining, grinding, or finishing operations were required to remove the metallic supports using this approach. This novel approach introduces new capabilities to AM that could drastically reduce the postprocessing needed for 3D printed metal components.

AB The interannual variations of intensity of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) during boreal winter are investigated by using the observed outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) and the reanalysis data of ECMWF and NCEP. The standard deviation of 20-80-day filtered OLR anomaly is used to measure the MJO intensity. The dominant spatial structure of the interannual variability is revealed by an EOF analysis of the MJO intensity field. It is found that the leading mode is associated with eastern Pacific type ENSO, whereas the second mode is related to central Pacific type ENSO. A simple atmospheric model is used to investigate the relative roles of background moisture and wind changes in affecting the overall strength of MJO. The numerical experiments indicate that the background moisture effect is dominant while the background wind change has a minor effect.

AB This paper presents a wireless instrumentation system developed for real-time estimation of air turbulence patterns arising from the interaction of wind with any structure under consideration, which is an important study in the aerospace industry. In particular, this paper focuses on the application of the proposed system in a naval research problem for off-board measurement of ship air wake patterns using an instrumented radio controlled (RC) helicopter. We propose the use of an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) as a sensor to measure air wake in the form of induced vibrations on the helicopter while it maneuvers through regions of active air wake. The proposed system makes use of Back Propagation Neural Networks to compensate for the vibrational noise contributed by pilot inputs. The instrumentation system was integrated and tested on a modified training vessel in the Chesapeake Bay, which provided a wide range of wind conditions. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
