Yarrowia lipolytica
Alpha-linolenic acid
Fatty alcohols
Hydrothermal liquefaction aqueous phase

description: Oleochemicals have diverse applications in health, fuel, and chemical markets with growing product demands. Traditionally, these compounds are generated from relatively unsustainable petroleum processes or natural oils extractions (e.g. plant, fish, etc.). While these natural oil sources are commonly thought of as renewable, these processes require significant environmental inputs of land, water, and time and can be rather unsustainable. Alternatively, oleochemicals can be generated by microbes and often utilize waste products as the input nutrient feedstock. The yeast Yarrowia lipolytica is uniquely positioned as a host for this oleochemical production due to its innate oleaginous nature. Additionally, Y. lipolytica has native tolerance to a variety of usually inhibitory molecules, thus allowing for growth in a variety of waste sources. In this work, the oleochemical palette of this host was expanded to include the polyunsaturated, ω-3 fatty acid α-linolenic acid and fatty alcohols along with significant progress toward rewiring for phospholipid-linked modified fatty acids. On the feedstock side, waste valorization and chemical co-production was evaluated in Hydrothermal Liquefaction Aqueous Phase (HTL-AP) leading to enhanced tolerance and productivity. In brief, this work allowed for high content (maximum titer of 1.4 g/L and lipid content of 27%) of α-linolenic acid production through expression of a heterologous Δ12-15 desaturase along with a low temperature fermentation. In a subsequent approach, fatty alcohols were produced using a fatty acyl-CoA reductase along with dodecane extractive fermentation leading to 75% product secretion and 5.8 g/L fatty alcohols in bioreactor fermentation. To access a third class of additional oleochemicals with unique modifications, progress was made toward understanding and improving phospholipid availability in Y. lipolytica. A three-pronged approach addressed co-factor availability, pathway biosynthesis, and lipid shuffling to identify limiting factors that could lead to a 5-fold improvement in phospholipid titer. To complement these production phenotypes, Y. lipolytica was evaluated for its potential to both detoxify and valorize HTL-AP. Bioreactor fermentation demonstrated chemical production exceeding 20 g/L in a mixture of lignocellulosic hydrolysate and HTL-AP while adaptation isolated new clones capable of growth in 27% HTL-AP. Collectively, this work in teaching Y. lipolytica new tricks demonstrates significant steps toward sustainable biochemical production and waste utilization.

description: Three-dimensional topological semimetals come in different variants, either containing Weyl points or Dirac lines. Here we describe a more complicated momentum-space topological defect where several separate Dirac lines connect with each other, forming a momentum-space equivalent of the real-space nexus considered before for Helium-3. Close to the nexus the Dirac lines exhibit a transition from type I to type II lines. We consider a general model of stacked honeycomb lattices with the symmetry of Bernal (AB) stacked graphite and show that the structural mirror symmetries in such systems protect the presence of the Dirac lines, and also naturally lead to the formation of the nexus. By the bulk-boundary correspondence of topological media, the presence of Dirac lines lead to the formation of drumhead surface states at the side surfaces of the system. We calculate the surface state spectrum, and especially illustrate the effect of the nexus on these states.

description: We combine a semi-analytic model of galaxy evolution with constraints on circumstellar habitable zones and the distribution of terrestrial planets to probe the suitability of galaxies of different mass and type to host habitable planets, and how it evolves with time. We find that the fraction of stars with terrestrial planets in their habitable zone (known as habitability) depends only weakly on galaxy mass, with a maximum around 4e10 Msun. We estimate that 0.7% of all stars in Milky Way type galaxies to host a terrestrial planet within their habitable zone, consistent with the value derived from Kepler observations. On the other hand, the habitability of passive galaxies is slightly but systematically higher, unless we assume an unrealistically high sensitivity of planets to supernovae. We find that the overall habitability of galaxies has not changed significantly in the last ~8 Gyr, with most of the habitable planets in local disk galaxies having formed ~1.5 Gyr before our own solar system. Finally, we expect that ~1.4e9 planets similar to present-day Earth have existed so far in our galaxy.

But it seems that both industries have to have a real focus on cost reduction to make themselves serious contributors to a low carbon transition in the UK.

description: Detection of ~ 0.1-70 GeV prompt gamma-ray emission from the exceptionally bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130427A by the Fermi-Large Area Telescope provides an opportunity to explore the physical processes of GeV gamma-ray emission from the GRB jets. In this work we discuss interactions of Iron and Oxygen nuclei with observed keV-MeV photons in the jet of GRB 130427A in order to explain an additional, hard spectral component observed during 11.5-33 second after trigger. The photodisintegration time scale for Iron nuclei is comparable to or shorter than this duration. We find that gamma rays resulting from the Iron nuclei disintegration can account for the hard power-law component of the spectra in the 1-70 GeV range, before the gamma-gamma to electron-positron pair production with low-energy photons severely attenuates emission of higher energy photons. Electron antineutrinos from the secondary neutron decay, on the other hand, can be emitted with energies up to 2 TeV. The flux of these neutrinos is low and consistent with non-detection of GRB 130427A by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. The required total energy in the Iron nuclei for this hadronic model for GeV emission is approximately 10 times the observed total energy released in the prompt keV-MeV emission.

description: Quantum phase slip (QPS) is the topological singularity of the complex order parameter of a quasi-one-dimensional superconductor: momentary zeroing of the modulus and simultaneous 'slip' of the phase by 2π. The QPS event(s) are the dynamic equivalent of tunneling through a conventional Josephson junction containing static in space and time weak link(s). Here we demonstrate the operation of a superconducting single electron transistor (Cooper pair transistor) without any tunnel junctions. Instead a pair of thin superconducting titanium wires in QPS regime were used. The current-voltage characteristics demonstrate the clear Coulomb blockade with magnitude of the Coulomb gap modulated by the gate potential. The Coulomb blockade disappears above the critical temperature, and at low temperatures can be suppressed by strong magnetic field.

Interlayer excitons in twisted van der Waals heterostructures

description: Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures represent a promising material platform with rich electronic and optical properties highly tunable via a wide selection of layer materials, electric doping, strain, and twist angle. Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductors commonly show strong light-matter coupling and direct bandgaps from the infrared to the visible spectral range, making them promising candidates for various optoelectronic applications. Vertically stacking different TMD monolayers allows one to create TMD heterostructures with rich and tunable correlated electronic phases and optical properties. Among different methods to tune the properties of vdW heterostructures, the twist angle is the most unique parameter. In this dissertation, we investigated the twist angle dependent optical properties of interlayer excitons in TMD heterostructures. First, we studied the twist-angle dependent interlayer exciton lifetimes in MoSe₂/WSe₂ heterostructures. We found that the multiple resonances of interlayer excitons subject to strong confinement in the moiré potential. Their properties are consistent with the interpretation that these resonances are ground- and excited state excitons. Our experiments further revealed that the recombination dynamics of interlayer excitons depends strongly on the twist angle. For example, their lifetimes change from ~ 1 ns to hundreds of ns when the twist angle is increased from 1 to 3.5°. In collaboration with a theoretical group, we explored two mechanisms for this drastic dependence. First, a relative rotation between the two layers in real space translates to a rotation in the momentum space. As the twist angle is increased, the interlayer exciton transitions change from direct- to indirect transitions in the momentum spacing, leading to a longer lifetime. Second, the presence of moiré potential also has a significant impact on the lifetime, reducing its angle dependence by relaxing the requirement of momentum conservation. Next, we investigated the influence of moiré potential on interlayer exciton diffusion in MoSe₂/WSe₂ heterostructures. The interlayer exciton diffusion offers a unique channel of energy and information transport in TMD heterostructures. While early studies focused on how mobile excitons are in TMD heterostructures, we find that interlayer exciton diffusion is impeded in the presence of the moiré potential by comparing two types of samples: those prepared by mechanical exfoliation and those grown with chemical vapor deposition. We investigated multiple mechanically stacked samples with accurately controlled twist-angles. We showed that the interlayer exciton diffusion does not depend on the size of the moiré supercell in a simple and monotonic manner. These experiments provide an important and complementary view of the diffusion properties of interlayer excitons from those reported in the literature.

description: We present two pulse schemes for actively depleting measurement photons from a readout resonator in the nonlinear dispersive regime of circuit QED. One method uses digital feedback conditioned on the measurement outcome while the other is unconditional. In the absence of analytic forms and symmetries to exploit in this nonlinear regime, the depletion pulses are numerically optimized using the Powell method. We shorten the photon depletion time by more than six inverse resonator linewidths compared to passive depletion by waiting. We quantify the benefit by emulating an ancilla qubit performing repeated quantum parity checks in a repetition code. Fast depletion increases the mean number of cycles to a spurious error detection event from order 1 to 75 at a 1 microsecond cycle time.

The Helm Wind project carried out an unconstrained investigation into the concepts and technologies required to deliver significant cost of energy reductions for offshore wind. This included rotor diameter, geometry and speed,number of blades, upwind and downwind orientations, drivetrain options and support structures. Led by E.ON, the consortium also included BP, Rolls-Royce and the University of Strathclyde.

description: In 2020, now more than ever, the toll that infectious diseases can take on our society is apparent. Therapeutics and vaccines offer promising solutions, but ineffective target selection and design can make these efforts futile. Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough, is the leading cause of vaccine preventable deaths worldwide. Despite high vaccination coverage, it accounts for ~1% of fatalities of children under the age of five annually. The current vaccine largely contributes to this statistic. Among the many vaccine inefficiencies, the protection it offers wanes over time, the vaccine prevents symptoms but not colonization or asymptomatic transmission, and bacterial strains have evolved their expression of several vaccine antigens rendering them ineffective targets. This lack of efficacy is especially dangerous to infants too young to receive the vaccine as they are at highest risk for serious and fatal outcomes. The work in this thesis establishes a multi-faceted approach to tackle this pertussis problem. We discover and engineer antibodies to two pertussis virulence factors, pertussis toxin and pertactin, and show their effectiveness in treating and reducing infection in B. pertussis mouse and baboon models. We also provide a solution to the problem by developing a novel antigen that can improve the acellular vaccine, a derivative of the adenylate cyclase toxin, RTX. We show that adenylate cyclase toxin is essential for bacterial virulence and that robust immunization elicited, anti-RTX responses can readily neutralize the toxin’s effects in vivo and significantly reduce lethality. Together these efforts, of treatments to prevent serious disease and an improved vaccine to prevent pertussis altogether, can save countless lives.

description: We study the ground-state phase diagram and dynamics of the one-dimensional cluster model with several competing interactions. Paying particular attention to the relation between the entanglement spectrum (ES) and the bulk topological (winding) number, we first map out the ground-state phases of the model and determine the universality classes of the transitions from the exact solution. We then investigate the dynamical properties during interaction sweeps through the critical points of topological phase transitions. When the sweep speed is slow, the correlation functions and the entanglement entropy exhibit spatially periodic structures. On top of this, the levels in the ES oscillate temporally during the dynamics. By explicitly calculating the above quantities for excited states, we attribute these behaviors to the Bogoliubov quasiparticles generated near the critical points. We also show that the ES reflects the strength of the Majorana correlation even for the excited states.

description: Silicon has been an element of interest for decades. The synthesis of silicon nanomaterials: nanocrystals, nanowires and nanosheets has further expanded the range of its applications from the semiconductor industry to lithium-ion batteries and biological imaging. As these applications are being explored, understanding the structure of these materials and their stability under different environmental conditions is essential because it dictates their ability to be employed in these. Silicon nanosheets have been explored in the recent decade and despite several reports on their synthesis, a method to synthesize them in significant quantities has not been identified. Using liquid-assisted exfoliation and liquid cascade centrifugation, size-selected nanosheets can be generated from siloxene, a layered silicon compound. These nanosheets show emission in the blue with some size-dependence in their optical properties. While this synthesis can produce significant quantities of nanosheets, the presence of air partially oxidizes and amorphizes them. Synthesizing nanosheets in an inert environment starting from siloxene produces crystalline nanosheets. Studying the Si L₂₃ edge using Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy, shows that siloxene nanosheets have a Si L₂₃ edge distinct from Si and SiO₂. These nanosheets are also sensitive to damage due to the electron beam and undergo amorphization. Silicon nanocrystals have potential applications in biological imaging because of their biocompatibility and emission in the red-infrared range. A lot of bioconjugation strategies require the use of amines and the impact of amines on the photoluminescence properties and structure of ligand-stabilized silicon nanocrystals is studied. Amines progressively quench the photoluminescence of these nanocrystals and degrade them through the attack of the nitrogen lone pair. Silicon Nanocrystals were also studied using Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy. EELS was used to understand the structure and surface of silicon nanocrystals. Si L₂₃ shows a change in the oxidation state of Si from the surface to core indicating the presence of Si-C bonds on the surface arising from surface passivation. Low-loss EELS shows the dependence of volume plasmon energy on the size of SiNCs arising from quantum confinement.

description: The Condition Monitoring project was led by Moog Insensys and included Romax, SeeByte, the University of Strathclyde, E.ON and EDF. It looked towards developing an intelligent integrated, predictive, condition monitoring package for wind turbines, which improves reliability, increasing availability by reducing downtime by up to 20% and leading to potential savings of 6,000 per turbine.

The InFLOW project was initiated to develop an holistic, predictive condition monitoring system. This was seen to be distinct from conventional condition monitoring systems (CMS) in that it did not restrict itself to a single technology, but brought together a range of sensing technologies and available turbine data to generate holistic diagnostics and real-time damage modelling to provide prognostic information relating to the life used on various parts of the turbine. It was shown that therewere significant savings to be made by optimising the inspection and maintenance regimes for off-shore turbines, in large part due to the expense of jack-up barges with weather defined access constraints

Conclusions:The application of holistic relational models has been applied for the first time in wind turbines across a wide dataset.This capability shows promise to codify expert knowledge but would require further development and validation.The use of prognostic damage models provides additional information to support inspection and maintenance optimisation. However, there is a need to build more experience with these models.The introduction of SCADA fault algorithms into the system reflects current thinking in wind turbine fleets, and the models produced represent advanced examples of what can be achieved.These real time algorithms can be implemented in the control system or a data historian.

This system is thoroughly investigated by means of an exact model of the macroscopic dynamics, valid in the thermodynamic limit. The collective chaotic state is reproduced numerically with a finite population, and persists in the presence of weak heterogeneities. Finally, the relationship of the model's dynamics with fast neuronal oscillations is discussed.

description: This is the call for proposals for Development of Long High-Performance Blades for Large Offshore Wind Turbines

This Project is based on system optimisation studies which identified that the most cost-effective next generation turbine size is likely to be in the range 8-10MW, with proportionately larger blades than those currently proposed for turbines of this size.The impact of larger blades on the capacity factor is the next most important lever on delivered cost of electricity, after system reliability. We are now therefore seeking partners to undertake the development of high performance blades nominally in excess of 90m in length matched to turbines of greater than 8MW and ideally 10MW capacity with tip speeds typical of locations at distance from shore that does not present any noise and visual impact.

The outcomes for this long blade Project are to:Design, manufacture and test blades that are the optimum size for the next generation of large offshore wind turbines (>8MW and ideally 10MW);Verify the blade performance predicted by the models developed at the design stage;Be in a position to supply realistic numbers of blades into First-of-A-Kind small arrays of the target turbines by end 2014 and demonstrate a plan thereafter to scale up the business operation to serve the market.The aim of the Project is to accelerate the market introduction of long blades in optimal configurations and break down the barriers to their deployment.The ETI recognises that different Respondents may propose different approaches to this.The outcomes of the Project however must be the manufacturing and testing of high performance long blades at full size, rather than demonstration solely of manufacturing technology or a blade concept at smaller scale.

description: The rotational instability of the electric polarization P during phase transformations between ferroelectric phases is of great practical interest, since it may be accompanied by extremely large values of the piezoelectric coefficient, and a divergence of the coupled shear compliance contributes to such enhancements. In the literature, this had been explicitly calculated in the framework of the Landau theory and discussed with specific numerical simulations involving tetragonal, orthorhombic and rhombohedral ferroelectric phases. When monoclinic phases are involved, such an approach is practically impossible, and an approximated treatment had been proposed, based on the observation that in those cases there are shear strains almost linearly coupled to the transverse component of P, implying a divergence of the Curie-Weiss type in the associated compliances. Here the argument is extended to the general case of transitions whose major effect is a rotation of the polarization, and the limits of its validity are discussed. As experimental verification, the elastic response of BaTiO3 is measured and analyzed, together with those of other ferroelectric perovskites available in the literature, like KNN.

description: Geometry of hypersurfaces defined by the relation which generalizes classical formula for free energy in terms of microstates is studied. Induced metric, Riemann curvature tensor, Gauss-Kronecker curvature and associated entropy are calculated. Special class of ideal statistical hypersurfaces is analyzed in details. Non-ideal hypersurfaces and their singularities similar to those of the phase transitions are considered. Tropical limit of statistical hypersurfaces and double scaling tropical limit are discussed too.

description: We derive electronic structure models for weakly interacting bilayers such as graphene-graphene and graphene-hexagonal boron nitride, based on density functional theory calculations followed by Wannier transformation of electronic states. These transferable interlayer coupling models can be applied to investigate the physics of bilayers with arbitrary translations and twists. The functional form, in addition to the dependence on the distance, includes the angular dependence that results from higher angular momentum components in the Wannier $p_z$ orbitals. We demonstrate the capabilities of the method by applying it to a rotated graphene bilayer, which produces the analytically predicted renormalization of the Fermi velocity, van Hove singularities in the density of states, and Moiré pattern of the electronic localization at small twist angles. We further extend the theory to obtain the effective couplings by integrating out neighboring layers. This approach is instrumental for the design of van der Walls heterostructures with desirable electronic features and transport properties and for the derivation of low-energy theories for graphene stacks, including proximity effects from other layers.

description: We evaluated the planetary radar capabilities at Arecibo, the Goldstone 70-m DSS-14 and 34-m DSS-13 antennas, the 70-m DSS-43 antenna at Canberra, the Green Bank Telescope, and the Parkes Radio Telescope in terms of their relative sensitivities and the number of known near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) detectable per year in monostatic and bistatic configurations. In the 2015 calendar year, monostatic observations with Arecibo and DSS-14 were capable of detecting 253 and 131 NEAs respectively, with signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) greater than 30/track. Combined, the two observatories were capable of detecting 276 NEAs. Of these, Arecibo detected 77 and Goldstone detected 32, or 30% and 24% the numbers that were possible. The two observatories detected an additional 18 and 7 NEAs respectively, with SNRs of less than 30/track. This indicates that a substantial number of potential targets are not being observed. The bistatic configuration with DSS-14 transmitting and the Green Bank Telescope receiving was capable of detecting about 195 NEAs, or ~50% more than with monostatic observations at DSS-14. Most of the detectable asteroids were targets of opportunity that were discovered less than 15 days before the end of their observing windows. About 50% of the detectable asteroids have absolute magnitudes > 25, which corresponds diameters < ~30 m.

description: Pulsating binary stars are ideal targets for testing the theory of stellar structure and evolution. Fundamental parameters can be derived to high precision from binary modelling and provide crucial constraints for seismic modelling. High-order gravity modes are sensitive to the conditions near the convective core and therefore allow for a determination of parameters describing interior physics, especially the convective-core overshooting parameter. KIC\,10080943 is a binary system that contains two gravity- and pressure-mode hybrid pulsators. A detailed observational study has provided fundamental and seismic parameters for both components. We aim to find a model that is able to predict the observed g-mode period spacings and stellar parameters of both components of KIC 10080943. By calculating model grids with the stellar evolution code MESA and the seismic code GYRE, we can compare theoretical properties to the observed mean period spacing and position in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. The masses of our best models are somewhat below the values estimated from binarity, which is a consequence of the low observed mean g-mode period spacing. We find that the amount of core overshooting and diffusive mixing can be well constrained by the equal-age requirement for the two stars, however, we find no significant difference for different shapes of core overshooting. The measured rotation rates are within the limit of validity for the first-order perturbation approximation. We can find a good fit by using the traditional approximation for the pulsations, when taking slightly younger models with a higher asymptotic period spacing. This is because the zonal modes experience a slight shift due to the Coriolis force, which the first-order perturbation approximation ignores.

description: The topic of superconductivity in strongly disordered materials has attracted a significant attention. In particular vivid debates are related to the subject of intrinsic spatial inhomogeneity responsible for non-BCS relation between the superconducting gap and the pairing potential. Here we report experimental study of electron transport properties of narrow NbN nanowires with effective cross sections of the order of the debated inhomogeneity scales. We find that conventional models based on phase slip concept provide reasonable fits for the shape of the R(T) transition curve. Temperature dependence of the critical current follows the text-book Ginzburg-Landau prediction for quasi-one-dimensional superconducting channel Ic~(1-T/Tc)^3/2. Hence, one may conclude that the intrinsic electronic inhomogeneity either does not exist in our structures, or, if exist, does not affect their resistive state properties.
