VAIM - CFF: A variational autoencoder inverse mapper solution to Compton form factor extraction from deeply virtual exclusive reactions
We develop a new methodology for extracting Compton form factors (CFFs) in from deeply virtual exclusive reactions such as the unpolarized DVCS cross section using a specialized inverse problem solver, a variational autoencoder inverse mapper (VAIM). The VAIM-CFF framework not only allows us access to a fitted solution set possibly containing multiple solutions in the extraction of all 8 CFFs from a single cross section measurement, but also accesses the lost information contained in the forwar…

In-medium changes of nucleon cross sections tested in neutrino-induced reactions
Historically studied in the context of heavy-ion collisions, the extent to which free nucleon-nucleon forces are modified in-medium remains undetermined by these data sets. Therefore, we investigate the impact of NN in-medium modifications on neutrino-nucleus cross section predictions using the GiBUU transport model. We find that including an in-medium lowering of the NN cross section and density dependence on $Δ$ excitation improves agreement with MicroBooNE neutrino-argon scattering data. Th…

Chemical Reactions regulated by Phase-Separated Condensates
Phase-separated liquid condensates can spatially organize and thereby regulate chemical processes. However, the physicochemical mechanisms underlying such regulation remain elusive as the intramolecular interactions responsible for phase separation give rise to a coupling between diffusion and chemical reactions at non-dilute conditions. Here, we derive a theoretical framework that decouples the phase separation of scaffold molecules from the reaction kinetics of diluted clients. As a result, p…

The theory of heavy ion double charge exchange (DCE) reactions $A(Z,N)\to A(Z\pm 2,N\mp 2)$ is recapitulated emphasizing the role of Double Single Charge Exchange (DSCE) and pion-nucleon Majorana DCE (MDCE) reactions. DSCE reactions are of second--order distorted wave character, mediated by isovector nucleon-nucleon (NN) interactions.

In spite of their central importance to chemistry, the structure of CRNs continues to be challenging to deduce from data.

One such is the dimension of the chemical data: the number of in…

Computing Threshold Circuits with Bimolecular Void Reactions in Step Chemical Reaction Networks
Step Chemical Reaction Networks (step CRNs) are an augmentation of the Chemical Reaction Network (CRN) model where additional species may be introduced to the system in a sequence of ``steps.'' We study step CRN systems using a weak subset of reaction rules, \emph{void} rules, in which molecular species can only be deleted. We demonstrate that step CRNs with only void rules of size (2,0) can simulate threshold formulas (TFs) under linear resources. These limited systems can also simulate thresh…

We show that the solution of the fast-reaction system can be approximated by the corresponding slow flow of the limit system.

Modeling and Simulation of Chemo-Elasto-Plastically Coupled Battery Active Particles
As an anode material for lithium-ion batteries, amorphous silicon offers a significantly higher energy density than the graphite anodes currently used. Alloying reactions of lithium and silicon, however, induce large deformation and lead to volume changes up to 300%. We formulate a thermodynamically consistent continuum model for the chemo-elasto-plastic diffusion-deformation behavior of amorphous silicon and it's alloy with lithium based on finite deformations. In this paper, two plasticity th…

Radial and vertical constraints on the icy origin of H$_{2}$CO in the HD 163296 Protoplanetary Disk
H$_2$CO is a small organic molecule widely detected in protoplanetary disks. As a precursor to grain-surface formation of CH$_3$OH, H$_2$CO is considered an important precursor of O-bearing organic molecules that are locked in ices. Still, since gas-phase reactions can also form H$_2$CO, there remains an open question on the channels by which organics form in disks, and how much the grain versus the gas pathways impact the overall organic reservoir. We present spectrally and spatially resolved …

Functional reducibility of higher-order networks
Empirical complex systems are widely assumed to be characterized not only by pairwise interactions, but also by higher-order (group) interactions that affect collective phenomena, from metabolic reactions to epidemics. Nevertheless, higher-order networks' superior descriptive power -- compared to classical pairwise networks -- comes with a much increased model complexity and computational cost. Consequently, it is of paramount importance to establish a quantitative method to determine when such…

Carbon isotope chemistry in protoplanetary disks: Effects of C/O ratios
Carbon isotope fractionation of CO has been reported in the disk around TW Hya,where elemental carbon is more abundant than elemental oxygen ([C/O]$_{\rm elem}$> 1). We investigated the effects of the [C/O]$_{\rm elem}$ ratio on carbon fractionation using astrochemical models that incorporate isotope-selective photodissociation and isotope-exchange reactions. The $^{12}$CO/$^{13}$CO ratio could be lower than the elemental carbon isotope ratio due to isotope exchange reactions when the [C/O]$_{\…

I've been reading "On Green” (https://joecarlsmith.com/2024/03/21/on-green) and its following article, “On Attunement” with some interest today. I am uninterested in the ways he is focused on “AGI”, but that might actually be part of what he's saying and missing.
They talk about the philosophy of green in the "magic the gathering" sense, which has five core modes of things, and being a game, designed to balance. It's an attractive system and not without merit as a philosophical labeling system. In short: white, moral; blue, knowledge and rationality; red, passion and desire; black, power and achievement. And green. Green is the subject they can't identify clearly.
I don't think they really understand green. (They come from a very rationalist place, and that's not a good mode to understand Green)
Green is the domain of systems thinking and of ecology. It's one of flexible boundaries and hierarchies that vanish when you look at them for long. They talk about philosophical agents and try to fit a green philosophical stance into that framework, but it misses: the very idea of a self is nebulous in a green philosophy. Yes, it obviously exists, we are all separate from each other. But also we are inseparable from each other. Green is a philosophy of relationality and multiple perspectives and ever shifting viewpoints. It's not just yin, passive, permissive, but holistic. It's not that it lets the Other in, it's that it actively is in relation with the Other. The other is the self, the self is the other.
The essays also label green as conservative, and this is not quite true. It is not about being slow or regressive or traditional, but about being whole. They can't quite see that green's willingness to accept death and pain as things that happen and also its strong preservationist stance are not opposed to each other. It seems incoherent, but it's not: death and pain are things that happen to living parts of an ecosystem. They matter, but so too does the whole matter. Where so many blue rationalists see statistical and demographic counts of deaths and "sentient beings harmed”, green sees a whole ecosystem where some of that is deeply natural. It's unnatural, ecosystem-harming deaths that are disasters in the green philosophy. Wholesale extinctions. Protracted, painful deaths, as much for the wound they cause outside the individual as the individual suffering as well. But we all come to an end, and to change that wholesale would end so many kinds of relationship, so many things.
Green revels in the illegible, the incomplete, and the connected. It's easy to be green-blind, to ignore the subtle systemic effects. So many of us want simple cause and effect, rather than action and plurality of reactions.
Green's ability to embrace the illegible lets it deal with Red chaos; its resilience tempers red passion. It can ally with White philosophies into a pastoral, conservative, moralistic framework. It ends up at odds with the rationalist Blue and the power-hungry Black, because they drive disequilibrium, but more than just transition to new stable ecologies, they drive systems permanently out of stability, destroying relationships in their path. When confronted with this, they will deny it because the objects are still there. Preserved. Catalogued. Legible and accounted for. Perhaps used instrumentally. Perhaps wrecked for some "greater purpose” but only acknowledged as objects. The relationships between things remain illegible.

Shell Effects in Quasi-fission in Reactions Forming 226Th Compound Nucleus
Quasi-fission (QF) reactions occur in fully damped heavy-ion collisions without the formation of an equilibrated compound nucleus, leading to the formation of fragments with similar properties as in fission reactions. Similar shell effects are expected to affect fragment formation in both fission and QF. Our purpose is to investigate QF dynamics in different reactions forming the same compound nucleus and search for possible signatures of shell effects in fragment formation. 50Ca+176Yb and 96Zr…

Enzymatic Aggregation
We introduce an autocatalytic aggregation model in which the rate at which two clusters merge to form a cluster is controlled by the presence of a third "enzymatic" cluster whose mass must equal to the mass of one of the reaction partners. The enzyme is unaffected by the joining event and is available to either participate in or catalyze subsequent reactions. This model is meant to mimic the self-replicating reactions that occur in models for the origin of life. We solve the kinetics of enzymat…

Direct access to transition state energies at low computational cost unlocks the possibility of accelerating catalyst discovery. We show that the top performing graph neural network potential trained on the OC20 dataset, a related but different task, is able to find transition states energetically similar (within 0.1 eV) to density functional theory (DFT) 91% of the time with a 28x speedup. This speaks to the generalizability of the models, having never been explicitly trained on reactions, the…

The evaluation of the rate constants for a reversible unimolecular hydrogen transfer reaction that involves a cyclic transition state
Intermolecular hydrogen transfer free radical reactions are common in the combustion process and in a number of organic chemistry reactions. Therefore, evaluating the pressure and temperature-dependent rate constants of them is of great importance. Basing on microcanonical Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus (RRKM) theory, tunnelling correction, and internal rotation correction, we present a simple model that is able to give an estimate of the desired rate constants of a reversible unimolecular react…

To access information on the internal structure of the nucleon, data from a variety of scattering experiments can be analyzed, in regimes where the information factorizes from an otherwise known scattering amplitude. A recent development, promising new insight, is the study of exclusive reactions in the backward kinematical region, where the information can be encoded in Transition Distribution Amplitudes (TDAs). We model the photon-to-nucleon TDAs, entering the factorized description of backwa…

Sensitivity of 3D Convective Urca Simulations to Changes in Urca Reactions
A proposed setting for thermonuclear (Type Ia) supernovae is a white dwarf that has gained mass from a companion to the point of carbon ignition in the core. There is a simmering phase in the early stages of burning that involves the formation and growth of a core convection zone. One aspect of this phase is the convective Urca process, a linking of weak nuclear reactions to convection that may alter the composition and structure of the white dwarf. Convective Urca is not well understood and re…

Systematic study of capture thresholds with time dependent Hartree-Fock theory
With the time dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory, capture thresholds $E_{\rm cap}$ for 144 fusion systems with nearly spherical nuclei are systematically studied for the first time. We find that for the reactions between doubly-magic nuclei, the calculated $E_{\rm cap}$ are very close to the extracted barrier heights from measured fusion excitation functions. For the fusion reactions with nearly spherical nuclei, an excitation energy of about 1 MeV at the capture position need to be considere…

Low-Dimensional Projection of Reactive Islands in Chemical Reaction Dynamics Using a Supervised Dimensionality Reduction Method
Transition state theory is a standard framework for predicting the rate of a chemical reaction. Although the transition state theory has been successfully applied to numerous chemical reaction analyses, many experimental and theoretical studies have reported chemical reactions with a reactivity which cannot be explained by the transition state theory due to dynamic effects. Dynamical systems theory provides a theoretical framework for elucidating dynamical mechanisms of such chemical reactions.…

Our interpretation of exoplanet atmospheric spectra, and the veracity of these interpretations, will be limited by our understanding of atmospheric processes and the accuracy of input modeling data. Molecular cross-sections are essential inputs to these models. The photochemistry of temperate planets depends on photolysis reactions w…

Universal fragmentation in annihilation reactions with constrained kinetics
In reaction-diffusion models of annihilation reactions in low dimensions, single-particle dynamics provides a bottleneck for reactions, leading to an anomalously slow approach to the empty state. Here, we construct a reaction model with a reciprocal bottleneck on particle dynamics where single-particle motion conserves the center of mass. We show that such a constrained reaction-diffusion dynamics does not approach an empty state but freezes at late times in a state with fragmented particle clu…

Fast rare events in exit times distributions of jump processes
Rare events in the first-passage distributions of jump processes are capable of triggering anomalous reactions or series of events. Estimating their probability is particularly important when the jump probabilities have broad-tailed distributions, and rare events are therefore not so rare. We formulate a general approach for estimating the contribution of fast rare events to the exit probabilities in the presence of fat tailed distributions. Using this approach, we study three jump processes th…

Quantum Chemistry Model of Surface Reactions and Kinetic Model of Diamond Growth: Effects of CH3 Radicals and C2H2 Molecules at Low-Temperatures CVD
The objective of this study is to explore conditions that facilitate a significant reduction in substrate temperature during diamond growth. The typical temperature for this process is around 1200K; we aim to reduce it to a much lower level. To achieve this, we need to understand processes that limit the diamond growth at low temperatures. Therefore, we developed a detailed chemical kinetic model to analyze diamond growth on the (100) surface. This model accounts for variations in substrate tem…

Relationship between chain reactions in a nuclear reactor and multifractality
A multifractal model of neutron evolution in a reactor is considered. For chain reactions, the dimension of the multifractal carrier, information and correlation dimensions, the entropy of the fractal set, the maximum and minimum values of the dimension, the multifractal spectrum function and other characteristics of multifractal neutron behavior are found. The use of geometric characteristics of a multifractal makes it possible to describe a stochastic system of hierarchically subordinate stat…

Implementation of the microscopic nuclear potential in the coupled channels calculations to study the fusion dynamics of Oxygen based reactions

The R3Y NN-potential and the densities of interacting nuclei are obtained for the relativistic mean-field approach for the NL3$^*$ parameter set. It is to be noted that the R3Y NN potential can be expressed in terms of masses of the mesons and their couplings by considering the me…

In this work, rate coefficients of four prototypical insertion reactions, X + H2 -- H + XH (X=C(1D), N(2D), O(1D), S(1D)) and associated isotope reactions are calculated based on ring polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) with Cayley propagator (Cayley-RPMD). The associated kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) are systematically studied too.
