- Description:
- During its trajectory, Wind spent a significant amount of time in the magnetotail, where its SupraThermal Ion Composition Spectrometer (STICS) measured the mass and mass per charge of protons, alpha particles, and heavy ions with an energy/charge ratio up to 226 keV/e. Although STICS originally aimed to measure the abundance of these ion species in the solar wind, its measurements within the magnetosphere from 1995 to 2002 help us identify preferential entry between the different solar wind ion species. This study statistically analyzes how the ratio between solar wind heavy ions and alpha particles (Heavies Solar Wind / He2+) varies for different upstream conditions and locations within the magnetosphere: northward vs. southward Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF), low vs. high solar wind density (Nsw), low vs. high solar wind dynamic pressure (PDyn), slow vs. fast solar wind (Vsw), and dawn vs. dusk. Our results indicate that the HeaviesSolar Wind enter the magnetosphere more efficiently than He2+ during northward IMF and that the Heavies Solar Wind / He2+ ratios decrease during high PDyn. In addition, the Heavies Solar Wind / He2+ ratios exhibit a dawn-dusk asymmetry, highly skewed towards the dawn side for all upstream cases likely due to charge-exchange processes.

- Description:
- Data are collected in 5 separate workspace, one for the main density data calculations across the space and 4 for the subproject simulations that were performed to validate and dive deeper into specific engine implementations. In order to copy the simulation trajectory and calculated averages used to generate figures, these workspace folders must be downloaded and pointed to the correct place in the GitHub Project Structure, which can be found at https://github.com/mosdef-hub/reproducibility_study and Each compressed file contains the data for a single workspace.

- Description:
- Accurately predicting the horizontal component of the ground magnetic field perturbation (dBH), which can be used to calculate the Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs), is crucial for estimating the space weather impact of geomagnetic disturbances. In this work, we develop a new data-driven model GeoDGP using deep Gaussian process (DGP), which is a Bayesian non-parametric approach. The model provides global probabilistic forecasts of dBH at 1-minute time cadence and with arbitrary spatial resolutions. We evaluate the model comprehensively on a wide range of geomagnetic storms, including the 2024 Gannon extreme storm. The results show that GeoDGP significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art physics-based first-principles Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) Michigan Geospace model and the data-driven DAGGER model.

- Description:
- In this study, we show that coronal mass ejection (CME) simulations conducted with the Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) can be assimilated with SOHO LASCO white-light (WL) coronagraph observations and solar wind observations at L1 prior to the CME eruption to improve the prediction of CME arrival time. L1 observations are used to constrain the background solar wind, while LASCO coronagraph observations filter the initial ensemble simulations by constraining the simulated CME propagation speed. We then construct probabilistic predictions for CME arrival time using the data-assimilated ensemble. Scripts in this work are written in R, Python and Julia.

- Description:
- This dataset contains snapshots from simulations of a hexagonal self oscillating gel sheet defined via a triangular lattice. The lattice has stretching springs between neighboring vertices and bending springs with energy proportional to the square of the angle between neighboring traingular faces. The motion of the lattice is driven by time- and space-varying distributions of the rest lengths of the stretching springs. In the motivating experiments on thin gel sheets, there are chemical waves, radial or spiral in form, that induce local swelling of the sheets. As a simple model, this dataset considers radial or planar (unidirectional) traveling waves in the simulations. The sheet is modeled as a flat hexagon of radius 1 with an equilateral triangular triangle lattice mesh, with initially uniform mesh spacing of 1/33, resulting in 3367 mesh points. A small out-of-plane perturbation is applied and the motion evolves over the sheet over time. The sheet is modeled to have damped dynamics. However for large enough wave amplitudes, the sheet rapidly buckles into shapes with time-varying distributions of curvature, large in magnitude.

- Description:
- Single molecule long read RNA/cDNA sequencing of TERT revealed 45 TERT mRNA variants including 13 known and 32 novel variants. Among the variants, TERT Delta 2-4, which lacks exons 2-4 but retains the original open reading frame, was selected for further study. Induced pluripotent stem cells and cancer cells express higher levels of TERT Delta 2-4 compared to primary human bronchial epithelial cells. Overexpression of TERT Delta 2-4 enhanced clonogenicity and resistance to cisplatin-induced apoptosis. Knockdown of endogenous TERT Delta 2-4 in Calu-6 cells reduced clonogenicity and resistance to cisplatin. Our results suggest that TERT Delta 2-4 enhances cancer cells’ resistance to intrinsic apoptosis. RNA sequencing following knockdown of Delta 2-4 TERT indicates that translation is downregulated and that mitochondrial related proteins are upregulated compared to controls.

Supporting data: Domain-agnostic predictions of nanoscale interactions in proteins and nanoparticles
- Creator:
- Saldinger, Jacob, Raymond, Matt, Elvati, Paolo, and Violi, Angela
- Description:
- The accurate and rapid prediction of generic nanoscale interactions is a challenging problem with broad applications. Much of biology functions at the nanoscale, and our ability to manipulate materials and purposefully engage biological machinery requires knowledge of nano-bio interfaces. While several protein-protein interaction models are available, they leverage protein-specific information, limiting their abstraction to other structures. Here, we present NeCLAS, a general, and rapid machine learning pipeline that predicts the location of nanoscale interactions, providing human-intelligible predictions. Two key aspects distinguish NeCLAS: coarse-grained representations, and the use of environmental features to encode the chemical neighborhood. We showcase NeCLAS with challenges for protein-protein, protein-nanoparticle and nanoparticle-nanoparticle systems, demonstrating that NeCLAS replicates computationally- and experimentally-observed interactions. NeCLAS outperforms current nanoscale prediction models, and it shows cross-domain validity, qualifying as a tool for basic research, rapid prototyping, and design of nanostructures., Software: - To reproduce all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) NAMD is required (version 2.14 or later is suggested).
