Identification of the highly active Zn-N_(4) sites with pyrrole/pyridine-N synergistic coordination by dz^(2)+s-band center for electrocatalytic H_(2)O_(2) production

Single metal atoms anchored on nitrogen-doped carbon materials(M-N_(4))have been identified as effective active sites for catalyzing the two-electron oxygen reduction reaction(2e-ORR).However,the relationship between the local atomic/electronic environments of the M-N_(4) sites(metal atoms coordinated with different types of N species)and their catalytic activity for 2e-ORR has rarely been elaborated clearly,which imposes significant ambiguity for the rational design of catalysts.Herein,guided by the comprehensive density-functional theory calculations and predictions,a series of Zn-N_(4) single-atom catalysts(SACs)are designed with pyrrole/pyridine-N(N_(Po)/N_(Pd))synergistic coordination and prepared by controlling the pyrolysis temperature(600,700,and 800℃),Among them,the dominated Zn-N_(4) configurations with rationally combined N_(Po)/N_(Pd)coordination show~*OOH adsorption strength close to the optimal value,much superior to those with mono N species.Thus,the as-prepared catalyst exhibits a high H_(2)O_(2) selectivity of over 90%both in neutral and alkaline environments,with a superb H_(2)O_(2) yield of up to 33.63 mol g^(-1)h^(-1)in an alkaline with flow cell.More importantly,a new descriptor,dz^(2)+s band center,has been proposed,which is especially feasible for predicting the activity for metal types with fully occupied s and d orbitals.This work thus presents clear guidance for the rational design of highly active SACs toward ORR and provides a complement to the d-band theory for more accurately predicting the catalytic activity of the materials.

Design,fabrication,and cold test of an S-band high-gradient accelerating structure for compact proton therapy facility

An S-band high-gradient accelerating structure is designed for a proton therapy linear accelerator(linac)to accommodate the new development of compact,singleroom facilities and ultra-high dose rate(FLASH)radiotherapy.To optimize the design,an efficient optimization scheme is applied to improve the simulation efficiency.An S-band accelerating structure with 2856 MHz is designed with a low beta of 0.38,which is a difficult structure to achieve for a linac accelerating proton particles from 70 to 250 MeV,as a high gradient up to 50 MV/m is required.A special design involving a dual-feed coupler eliminates the dipole field effect.This paper presents all the details pertaining to the design,fabrication,and cold test results of the S-band high-gradient accelerating structure.

Radio frequency conditioning of an S-band accelerating structure prototype for compact proton therapy facility

The development of a high-gradient accelerating structure is underway to construct a compact proton linear accelerator for cancer treatment.Extensive experiments and numerous studies are being conducted to develop compact linear accelerators for proton therapy.Optimization of the electromagnetic and mechanical design has been performed to simplify the manufacturing process and reduce costs.A novel high-gradient structure with a low relativistic proton velocity(β),v/c=0.38,was designed,fabricated,and tested at high power.The first full-scale prototype was also successfully tested with high radio frequency(RF)power,a repetition rate of 50 Hz,and pulse length of 3μs to reach a high-gradient of 46 MV/m using a 50 MW S-band klystron power supply obtained from the Shanghai Soft X-ray Free Electron Laser Facility.This is the first high-power test in China,which is in line with the expected experimental goal.This study presents preliminary high-power testing of S-band standing wave accelerating structures with 11 cells.This work aims to verify the feasibility of using a high-gradient RF accelerating structure in compact proton therapy facilities.The cold test of the prototype cavity was completed in advance.Details of the high-power RF test setup,the process of RF conditioning,and the high-power results are described.

Reliability of X-band Dual-polarization Phased Array Radars Through Comparison with an S-band Dual-polarization Doppler Radar

Based on the observations of a squall line on 11 May 2020 and stratiform precipitation on 6 June 2020 from two X-band dual-polarization phased array weather radars(DP-PAWRs)and an S-band dual-polarization Doppler weather radar(CINRAD/SA-D),the data reliability of DP-PAWR and its ability to detect the fine structures of mesoscale weather systems were assessed.After location matching,the observations of DP-PAWR and CINRAD/SA-D were compared in terms of reflectivity(Z_(H)),radial velocity(V),differential reflectivity(Z_(DR)),and specific differential phase(K_(DP)).The results showed that:(1)DP-PAWR has better ability to detect mesoscale weather systems than CINRAD/SAD;the multi-elevation-angles scanning of the RHI mode enables DP-PAWR to obtain a wider detection range in the vertical direction.(2)DP-PAWR’s Z_(H)and V structures are acceptable,while its sensitivity is worse than that of CINRAD/SA-D.The Z H suffers from attenuation and the Z_(H)area distribution is distorted around strong rainfall regions.(3)DP-PAWR’s Z_(DR)is close to a normal distribution but slightly smaller than that of CINRAD/SA-D.The K_(DP)products of DP-PAWR have much higher sensitivity,showing a better indication of precipitation.(4)DP-PAWR is capable of revealing a detailed and complete structure of the evolution of the whole storm and the characteristics of particle phase variations during the process of triggering and enhancement of a small cell in the front of a squall line,as well as the merging of the cell with the squall line,which cannot be observed by CINRAD/SA-D.With its fast volume scan feature and dual-polarization detection capability,DP-PAWR shows great potential in further understanding the development and evolution mechanisms of meso-γ-scale and microscale weather systems.

Suppression of Log-Normal Distributed Weather Clutter Observed by an S-Band Radar

We have observed weather clutter containing targets (ships) using an S-band radar with a frequency 3.05 GHz, a beam width 1.8°, and a pulsewidth 0.5 μs. To investigate the weather clutter amplitude statistics, we introduce the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC). We have found that the weather clutter amplitudes obey the log-normal, Weibull, and log-Weibull distributions with the shape parameters of 0.308 to 0.470, 4.42 to 4.51, and 15.91 to 16.44, respectively, for small data within the beam width of an antenna. We have proposed the log-normal/CFAR circuit modified a Cell-Averaging (CA) LOG/CFAR circuit. It is found that weather clutter is suppressed with improvement of 51.58 dB by log-normal/CFAR. As a result, we have showed that weather clutter observed by S-band radar does not obey the Rayleigh distribution and our log-normal/CFAR circuit has an effect on suppression of clutter and detection of target, while conventional LOG/CFAR circuit does not. In addition, if our circuit can be realized, we will have an advantage economically.

Raindrop Size Distribution Parameters Retrieved from Guangzhou S-band Polarimetric Radar Observations

According to the statistical shape-slope （μ-A） relationship observed for the first time by several 2D-Video-Distro-meters （2DVD） in southern China, a constrained gamma （C-G） model was proposed for the retrieval of rain drop size distributions （DSDs） from Guangzhou S-band polarimetric radar observations. Two typical precipitation processes were selected to verify the accuracy of the retrieval scheme. The p-A relationship： A = 0.0241μ^2 ＋ 0.867μ ＋ 2.453 was obtained based on the 2DVD observation results from at Huizhou Longmen station, which is a very representat-ive location in the area. Relying on the Guangzhou polarimetric radar measurements of radar reflectivity （ZHH） and differential reflectivity （ZDR）, the gamma （F） size distribution parameters （No, μ, and A） can be retrieved by the C-G model retrieval scheme. The results show that the Guangzhou polarimetric radar retrievals of DSDs were close to the 2DVD observations at Guangzhou Maofengshan station. The rain rate, mass mean diameter, and normalized inter-cept parameter of radar retrievals were in good agreement with the 2DVD observations, and the relative errors were less than 10%. The overall accuracy of the retrieval scheme was high. The retrieval scheme has established the rela-tionship between the polarimetric radar measurements and gamma size distribution parameters. It will be helpful to in-depth research and application of the dual-polarization radar data in microphysical precipitation processes analysis, as well as convection-resolved numerical model data assimilation and prediction effect evaluation.

Radio-frequency design and commissioning of a flexible waveguide for high-vacuum S-band applications

Purpose Flexible waveguides,which allow for greater deformation as compared to traditional hard waveguides,are highly useful for simplifying waveguide system assemblies.However,the peak powers of these waveguides have been limited to several megawatts in non-vacuum environments.Herein,a novel flexible waveguide was developed for the S-band(2856 MHz)with the aim of facilitating the interconnection of two hard waveguides.Methods The flexible waveguide was composed of brass,and its surface was plated with oxygen-free high-conductivity copper for brazing with stainless steel flanges in a vacuum furnace.By connecting the stainless steel flanges together,it can be applied to a high-vacuum environment.Results The prototype exhibited good measurement results in low-power microwave tests;the results of a 72-h vacuum leak test showed satisfactory vacuum performance as well,and no obvious surface collapse was observed.High-power microwave commissioning was conducted between June and July 2019;the waveguide showed a maximum average power of approximately 2.7 kW.Conclusion Unfortunately,the prototype was damaged after reaching that power level,which indicates the need for further optimization of the fabrication process.From our experiment,it is clear that the flexible waveguide cannot be used in large accelerators because of its average power limit.
