Under-deposit localised dissolution in simulated sour environments
Creators: name: Shamso, Ahmed
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: Sour (H2S –containing) environments present a major problem for oil and gas industries; of particular concern, is Underdeposit Corrosion (UDC), which is a type of accelerated localised corrosion observed under deposits, creating a risk to the asset integrity. Iron sulfides, a typical deposit in the sour environment, are considered critical due to their complex nature. The kinetics and controlling factors of sour UDC are not fully understood and there is no consensus on the methods used to evaluate it in pipelines. The efficacy of inhibitors may vary in such a scenario and so the amounts and efficiencies required cannot be a priori decided. There is, therefore, an urgent need for a protocol that addresses the characteristics of deposits to provide kinetic and mechanistic information on UDC phenomena. In this work, both the general and localised corrosion kinetics of steel were studied in a simulated sour environment under ‘inert’ (sand) and ‘active’ (iron sulfide) deposits. Our multiscale investigation involved electrochemically measuring planar electrodes and 1- dimensional artificial pits to simulate actively dissolving interfaces with different geometries, followed by ex-situ surface analyses. In addition, the interfacial salt layer responsible for defining the stability of pits propagation was further investigated in-situ using synchrotron microfocus X-ray analyses. The study showed that deposits stabilise a pitting-like corrosion in mild steel by altering the ionic diffusion process, which perturbs the local environment in a way that maintains an active chemistry for pit propagation. The salt films on the active interface have properties that are found to be dependent on the deposit type and the environment medium: sulfur-containing species, such as H2S or iron sulfide deposits, form an additional sulfide film at the metal interface, stabilising the kinetics for a further continued, yet slow pitting corrosion. Troilite presented the most aggressive form of deposit under the studied conditions. Therefore, based on the mechanistic understanding of UDC developed in this work, a protocol for the development of representative deposits for in-line corrosion sensing can be established, opening avenues towards researching effective and reliable inhibition protocols.

description: The low-temperature magnetic excitations of the two-dimensional spin-5/2 square-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet Rb2MnF4 have been probed using pulsed inelastic neutron scattering. In addition to dominant sharp peaks identified with one-magnon excitations, a relatively weak continuum scattering is also observed at higher energies. This is attributed to neutron scattering by pairs of magnons and the observed intensities are consistent with predictions of spin wave theory.

description: We present spectroscopic abundance analyses of three main-sequence B stars in the young Large Magellanic Cloud cluster NGC 2004. All three targets have projected rotational velocities around 130 km/s. Techniques are presented that allow the derivation of stellar parameters and chemical abundances in spite of these high v sin i values. Together with previous analyses of stars in this cluster, we find no evidence among the main-sequence stars for effects due to rotational mixing up to v sin i around 130 km/s. Unless the equatorial rotational velocities are significantly larger than the v sin i values, this finding is probably in line with theoretical expectations. NGC 2004/B30, a star of uncertain evolutionary status located in the Blue Hertzsprung Gap, clearly shows signs of mixing in its atmosphere. To verify the effects due to rotational mixing will therefore require homogeneous analysis of statistically significant samples of low-metallicity main-sequence B stars over a wide range of rotational velocities.

description: Indirect searches for signatures of corpuscular dark matter have been performed using all cosmic messengers: gamma rays, cosmic rays, and neutrinos. The search for dark matter from neutrinos is of particular importance since they are the only courier that can reach detectors from dark matter processes in dense environments, such as the core of the Sun or Earth, or from the edge of the observable Universe. In this work, we introduce $χ$aro$ν$, a software package that, in the spirit of its mythological Greek namesake $χ\acuteαρων$, bridges the dark sector and Standard Model by predicting neutrino fluxes from different celestial dark matter agglomerations. The flux at the point of production is either computed internally by $χ$aro$ν$ or is taken from user supplied tables. $χ$aro$ν$ then propagates this flux through vacuum or dense media and returns the expected neutrino yield at an observer's location. In developing $χ$aro$ν$, we have revisited and updated the production of neutrinos in dense media, updated the propagation of high-energy neutrinos, and studied the sources of uncertainty in neutrino transport. This package is coupled to a new calculation that includes electroweak corrections resulting in the most up-to-date and complete repository of neutrino fluxes from dark matter decay and annihilation over the energy range of 1 GeV to 10 PeV coming from the Earth, the Sun, and the Galactic halo.

description: The mean electromotive force caused by turbulence of an electrically conducting fluid, which plays a central part in mean--field electrodynamics, is calculated for a rotating fluid. Going beyond most of the investigations on this topic, an additional mean motion in the rotating frame is taken into account. One motivation for our investigation originates from a planned laboratory experiment with a Ponomarenko-like dynamo. In view of this application the second--order correlation approximation is used. The investigation is of high interest in astrophysical context, too. Some contributions to the mean electromotive are revealed which have not been considered so far, in particular contributions to the $α$--effect and related effects due to the gradient of the mean velocity. Their relevance for dynamo processes is discussed. In a forthcoming paper the results reported here will be specified to the situation in the laboratory and partially compared with experimental findings.

description: Precision farming and whole-field farming are compared with respect to yields, net present value of returns above nitrogen and water costs (NPVR), and nitrogen application rates to determine the differences in management practices. Precision farming yields, NPVR, and nitrogen application levels are then compared under yield maximizing verses profit maximizing strategies. The results quantify the gains from technology and management goals of peanut producers and suggest the technology effect is greater than the management effect.

Climate, fine-sediment transport linkages, Coast Mountains, British Columbia
Creators: name: Menounos, Brian Peter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The relation between climate and sediment yield remains poorly defined in regions of high relief and where sediment sources are numerous. This study examines the climatic controls associated with fine sediment production and yield for six glacierized watersheds in the Coast Mountains, British Columbia, Canada. Contemporary monitoring of suspended sediment transport was undertaken to detail the hydrologic conditions responsible for the entrainment and production of fine-grained sediment production and transport. The analysis of lake sediments recovered from outlet lake basins provided a means of documenting changes in sediment delivery over century to millennia time scales. Four of the lake basins contain finely laminated sediments which are interpreted to be clastic varves and so detail lake sedimentation at annual to event time scales. The results indicate that much of the variance in sediment transport records can be attributed to hydro-climatic variability at all time scales under consideration and much like other geophysical time series, a 1/frequency-variance scaling is apparent within the yield proxies of this study. Climatological conditions important for sediment production and entrainment at event to annual scales include those processes responsible for high flow events in the study area. Decadal-scale variations in sediment delivery coincide with sustained periods of ice melt. Sediment delivery from the watersheds at century to millennial time scales reflects major changes in ice cover. The correspondence between long records of lake sedimentation and air-temperature proxies developed from tree rings and ice cores suggests that changes in sediment yield from the watersheds reflects changes in air temperatures in the study area. Variations in air temperature appear to influence sediment transfers by controlling the intensity of glacial runoff during the ablation season. Highest sensitivity (i.e. those records where geomorphic filtering of the climate signal has not occurred) is noted for those basins which have active glaciers and the opportunity for sediment storage of fine-grained sediment in the fluvial system is low.

description: We review and further develop an analytical model that describes how thermodynamic constraints on the stability of the native state influence protein evolution in a site-specific manner. To this end, we represent both protein sequences and protein structures as vectors: Structures are represented by the principal eigenvector (PE) of the protein contact matrix, a quantity that resembles closely the effective connectivity of each site; Sequences are represented through the ``interactivity'' of each amino acid type, using novel parameters that are correlated with hydropathy scales. These interactivity parameters are more strongly correlated than the other hydropathy scales that we examine with: (1) The change upon mutations of the unfolding free energy of proteins with two-states thermodynamics; (2) Genomic properties as the genome-size and the genome-wide GC content; (3) The main eigenvectors of the substitution matrices. The evolutionary average of the interactivity vector correlates very strongly with the PE of a protein structure. Using this result, we derive an analytic expression for site-specific distributions of amino acids across protein families in the form of Boltzmann distributions whose ``inverse temperature'' is a function of the PE component. We show that our predictions are in agreement with site-specific amino acid distributions obtained from the Protein Data Bank, and we determine the mutational model that best fits the observed site-specific amino acid distributions. Interestingly, the optimal model almost minimizes the rate at which deleterious mutations are eliminated by natural selection.

description: The rupture of a polymer chain maintained at temperature $T$ under fixed tension is prototypical to a wide array of systems failing under constant external strain and random perturbations. Past research focused on analytic and numerical studies of the mean rate of collapse of such a chain. Surprisingly, an analytic calculation of the probability distribution function (PDF) of collapse rates appears to be lacking. Since rare events of rapid collapse can be important and even catastrophic, we present here a theory of this distribution, with a stress on its tail of fast rates. We show that the tail of the PDF is a power law with a {\em universal} exponent that is theoretically determined. Extensive numerics validate the offered theory. Lessons pertaining to other problems of the same type are drawn.
Greenspace and cardiovascular health outcomes in UK biobank participants: assessing the environmental and physiological pathways
Creators: name: Roscoe, Charlotte
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Urban greenspace is hypothesised to protect cardiovascular health via multiple mechanistic pathways. These include the environmental pathway, via which greenspace attenuates harmful pollution levels (e.g., air and noise pollution); and the physiological pathway, via which accessible greenspace is hypothesised to increase physical activity. My PhD thesis explored the impact of greenspace on environmental and physiological pathway-specific exposures. I developed pathway-specific exposure models and applied them to participants of a large, adult cohort – UK Biobank (n ~500,000). I estimated residential air pollution exposure via a land-use regression model, with surrounding vegetation cover as a predictor variable to assess the environmental pathway. To assess the physiological pathway, I developed a novel ‘green walkability’ index within a street/path network buffer around participants’ residential addresses. To enhance specificity of greenspace exposure, I assessed greenspace cover surrounding addresses using functional attribute data (e.g., public parks versus private gardens). I conducted survival analyses to examine the associations of greenspace cover surrounding residential addresses with cardiovascular and non-injury mortality, adjusting for relevant individual- and area-level confounders. Integration of vegetation cover into a ‘green walkability’ index did not strengthen effect estimates for physical activity participation in UK Biobank participants when compared to a standard index. I examined the interrelationships of greenspace, air pollution, traffic noise and walkability, and showed that ignoring built environment components related to walkability might result in biased greenspace and physical activity effect estimates. In epidemiological analyses, I showed a protective association across quintiles of surrounding greenspace (100 m circular distance buffer) and non-injury mortality, though not cardiovascular mortality. My thesis points to important policy implications of exposure interrelationships. Greenspace exposure might protect against premature mortality in older adults, though indirect mechanisms (e.g., air flow and walkability of street networks) should be considered, alongside greenspace, to ameliorate specific exposures on the environmental and physiological pathways.

description: Because of policy interest in the size distribution of farms, there is an interest in understanding the causes of changing farm sizes. This paper addresses an overlooked issue in the literature on the determinants of farm size, namely, the empirical specification of farm size. We examine 5 different size measures: acres operated, land and building value, cash receipts, cash receipts plus government payments, and a constructed measure of the rental value of farms. We graphically show the difference in trends in farm size using the various measures for the U.S. and selected states. We then discuss how the results of an analysis of the determinants of farm size depend on the farm size measure employed. The data set is a panel data set of 48 states from 1960 to 1996.

description: Single-image super-resolution is the process of increasing the resolution of an image, obtaining a high-resolution (HR) image from a low-resolution (LR) one. By leveraging large training datasets, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) currently achieve the state-of-the-art performance in this task. Yet, during testing/deployment, they fail to enforce consistency between the HR and LR images: if we downsample the output HR image, it never matches its LR input. Based on this observation, we propose to post-process the CNN outputs with an optimization problem that we call TV-TV minimization, which enforces consistency. As our extensive experiments show, such post-processing not only improves the quality of the images, in terms of PSNR and SSIM, but also makes the super-resolution task robust to operator mismatch, i.e., when the true downsampling operator is different from the one used to create the training dataset.

description: We present the optical transmission spectrum of the highly inflated Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-21b, using three transits obtained with the ACAM instrument on the William Herschel Telescope through the LRG-BEASTS survey (Low Resolution Ground-Based Exoplanet Atmosphere Survey using Transmission Spectroscopy). Our transmission spectrum covers a wavelength range of 4635-9000 Angstrom, achieving an average transit depth precision of 197ppm compared to one atmospheric scale height at 246ppm. We detect Na I absorption in a bin width of 30 Angstrom, at >4$σ$ confidence, which extends over 100 Angstrom. We see no evidence of absorption from K I. Atmospheric retrieval analysis of the scattering slope indicates it is too steep for Rayleigh scattering from H$_2$, but is very similar to that of HD 189733b. The features observed in our transmission spectrum cannot be caused by stellar activity alone, with photometric monitoring of WASP-21 showing it to be an inactive star. We therefore conclude that aerosols in the atmosphere of WASP-21b are giving rise to the steep slope that we observe, and that WASP-21b is an excellent target for infra-red observations to constrain its atmospheric metallicity.

description: Little research has been conducted on evaluating out-of-sample forecasts of limited dependent variables. This study describes the large and small sample properties of two forecast evaluation techniques for limited dependent variables: receiver-operator curves and out-of-sample-log-likelihood functions. The methods are shown to provide identical model rankings in large samples and similar rankings in small samples. The likelihood function method is slightly better at detecting forecast accuracy in small samples, while receiver-operator curves are better at comparing forecasts across different data. By improving forecasts of fed-cattle quality grades, the forecast evaluation methods are shown to increase cattle marketing revenues by $2.59/head.
Differential identities for the structure function of some random matrix ensembles

Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: The structure function of a random matrix ensemble can be specified as the covariance of the linear statistics $\sum_{j=1}^N e^{i k_1 λ_j}$, $\sum_{j=1}^N e^{-i k_2 λ_j}$ for Hermitian matrices, and the same with the eigenvalues $λ_j$ replaced by the eigenangles $θ_j$ for unitary matrices. As such it can be written in terms of the Fourier transform of the density-density correlation $ρ_{(2)}$. For the circular $β$-ensemble of unitary matrices, and with $β$ even, we characterise the bulk scaling limit of $ρ_{(2)}$ as the solution of a linear differential equation of order $β+ 1$ -- a duality relates $ρ_{(2)}$ with $β$ replaced by $4/β$ to the same equation. Asymptotics obtained in the case $β= 6$ from this characterisation are combined with previously established results to determine the explicit form of the degree 10 palindromic polynomial in $β/2$ which determines the coefficient of $|k|^{11}$ in the small $|k|$ expansion of the structure function for general $β> 0$. For the Gaussian unitary ensemble we give a reworking of a recent derivation and generalisation, due to Okuyama, of an identity relating the structure function to simpler quantities in the Laguerre unitary ensemble first derived in random matrix theory by Brézin and Hikami. This is used to determine various scaling limits, many of which relate to the dip-ramp-plateau effect emphasised in recent studies of many body quantum chaos, and allows too for rates of convergence to be established.

description: By shining a hypermultiplet from one side of the bulk of a flat five-dimensional orbifold, supersymmetry can be broken by boundary conditions. The extra dimension is stabilized in a supersymmetric way, and by computing the four-dimensional effective potential for the radion it is shown that supersymmetry breaking does not damage our radius stabilization mechanism. The low energy theory contains the radion and two complex scalars that are massless in the global supersymmetric limit and are stabilized by tree level supergravity effects. It is shown that radion mediation can play the dominant role in communicating supersymmetry breaking to the visible sector. It is also shown that at tree level, contact terms are exponentially suppressed.

description: In this paper we present an approach to quantum cloning via free dynamical evolution of spin networks. By properly designing the network and the couplings between spins, we show that optimal 1->M phase covariant cloning can be achieved without any external control. Especially, when M is an odd number, the optimal phase-covariant cloning can be achieved without ancillas. Moreover, we demonstrate that the same framework is capable for optimal 1->2 universal cloning.

description: We are conducting a survey of several regions of high-mass star formation to assess their content and structure. The observations include Spitzer observations, ground-based optical and near-IR imaging surveys, and optical and IR spectra of objects and locations in the molecular clouds. The goal of the survey is to gain a better understanding of the processes involved in high mass star formation by determining the characteristics of the stars detected in these regions and investigating the properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) environment in which these stars form. In this contribution, we present results on the identification and spatial analysis of young stars in three clusters, W5/AFGL 4029, S255, and S235. First we show how the IRAC data are used to roughly segregate young stars according to their mid-infrared colors, into two groups corresponding the SED Class I and Class II young stellar objects. Then using the IRAC data in combination with 2MASS, we show how more young stars can be identified. Finally, we examine the spatial distributions of young stars in these clusters and find a range of morphologies and of peak surface densities.

description: The measurement of a quantum system is often performed by encoding its state in a single observable of a light field. The measurement efficiency of this observable can be reduced by loss or excess noise on the way to the detector. Even a quantum-limited detector that simultaneously measures a second noncommuting observable would double the output noise, therefore limiting the efficiency to 50%. At microwave frequencies, an ideal measurement efficiency can be achieved by noiselessly amplifying the information-carrying quadrature of the light field but this has remained an experimental challenge. Indeed, while state-of-the-art Josephson-junction-based parametric amplifiers can perform an ideal single-quadrature measurement, they require lossy ferrite circulators in the signal path, drastically decreasing the overall efficiency. In this paper, we present a nonreciprocal parametric amplifier that combines single-quadrature measurement and directionality without the use of strong external magnetic fields. We extract a measurement efficiency of 62+17−9% that exceeds the quantum limit and that is not limited by fundamental factors. The amplifier can be readily integrated with superconducting devices, creating a path for ideal measurements of quantum bits and mechanical oscillators.

description: We present a study of the stellar populations of galaxies in the cluster RXJ0152.7-1357 at a redshift of 0.83. The study is based on new high S/N spectroscopy of 29 cluster members covering the wavelength range 5000-10000A as well as r'i'z' photometry of the cluster. The scaling relations between velocity dispersions, luminosities and Balmer line strengths appear to be in agreement with pure passive evolution of the stellar populations with a formation redshift z=4. However, the strengths of the D4000 indices and the metal indices do not support this interpretation. Compared to z=0, the metal indices (C4668, Fe4383, CN3883, G4300 and CN2) show that at least half of the non-emission line galaxies in RXJ0152.7-1357 have [alpha/Fe] of 0.2 dex higher, and about half of the galaxies have significantly lower metal content. The differences in stellar populations of the galaxies are associated with the location of the galaxies relative to the X-ray emission. The galaxies with weak C4668 and G4300, as well as galaxies with weak [OII] emission, are located in areas of low X-ray luminosity. It is possible that these galaxies are experiencing the effect of the cluster merger taking place in RXJ0152.7-1357 as (short) episodes of star formation, while the galaxies in the cores of the X-ray sub-clumps are unaffected by the merger. The spectroscopy of the RXJ0152.7-1357 galaxies shows for the first time galaxies in a rich cluster at intermediate redshift that cannot evolve passively into the present day galaxy population in rich clusters. Additional physical processes may be at work and we speculate that merging with infalling (disk) galaxies in which stars have formed over an extended period might produce the required reduction in [alpha/Fe].

description: We study the dependence of magnetic interactions and Curie temperature in Ni(1+x)MnSb system on the Ni concentration within the framework of the density-functional theory. The calculation of the exchange parameters is based on the super-cell and frozen-magnon approaches. The Curie temperatures, Tc, are calculated within the random-phase approximation. In agreement with experiment we obtain decrease of the Curie temperature with increasing Ni content.

description: The calculation of the transfer matrix for a large non-periodic multilayered system may become unstable in the presence of absorption. We discuss the origin of this instability and we explore two methods to overcome it: the use of a total matrix to solve for all the fields at all the interfaces simultaneously and an expansion in the Bloch-like modes of a periodic artificially repeated system. We apply both methods to obtain the reflectance spectra of multilayered chirped structures composed of nanostructured porous silicon (PS). Both methods yield reliable and numerically stable results. The former allows an analysis of the field within all layers while the latter is much more efficient computationally, allowing the design of novel structures and the optimization of their parameters. We compare numerical and experimental results across a wide spectral range from the infrared to the ultraviolet.
