[LCRC Accounts] Project Allocation Request
by accounts＠lcrc.anl.gov 15 Feb '11

15 Feb '11

Hello, A change in allocation has been requested: Requester: berger (Edmond Berger) Project: Collider_Processes Title: Simulations of High Energy Collider Physics Processes Description: Two investigations are under active consideration for FY 2009. Both are numerically intensive. The first is to provide the most precise estimate possible for the theoretical uncertainty in the determination of the mass of the W massive weak boson at the energy of the Large Hadron Collider. Within the Standard Model, this mass is an important ingredient for constraining the expected mass of the yet-to-be-discovered Higgs boson. The principal theoretical uncertainties arise from uncertainties in the parton distribution functions and from the limitations in the description within quantum chromodynamics of the distribution in transverse momentum of the W boson. We will do detailed numerical simulations to ascertain the uncertainty bounds. The second project will provide precise quantitative predictions for various kinematic distributions in reactions that produce an associated photon plus bottom quark final state. Once data are obtained, comparisons with our predictions should be instrumental for establishing the bottom quark parton distribution function. Current: undetermined amount Justification: Requested: 10000 A specific reason has been given: Our project has just restarted and a new collaborator is being added. This needs to be approved and the final allocation amount decided upon. Thank You, The LCRC Accounts System

[LCRC Accounts] Project Request: HPCC

Hello, A new project on the LCRC cluster has been requested. Please forward the information on to the LCRC Allocation sub-committee. Applicant's name: Amit Sharma Applicant's institution: ANL Applicant's division: CSE Project Name: HPCC Project title: Ab-initio chemical kinetics study of high pressure combustion: A theoretical study of the radical-complex mechanism. Associated funding: Department of Energy Other Systems: A small cluster (named: Pople) in the CSE fundamental interaction theory group. Science: Recent experimental studies of the falloff curve of the radical-radical association reaction show an unexpected additional rise of the rate constants at pressures above 300 bar in the 300 to 400 K temperature range. Contribution from the radical-complex (RC) mechanism, in addition to the usual energy-transfer (ET) mechanism, is believed to be the dominant factor for this phenomena. The radical-complex mechanism, which has not been theoretically studied and quantified, is the formation of the radical-bath gas (R-M) complex and the stabilization/complexation is related to the strength of the R-M bond in the van der Waals complexes. The decomposition of these R-M complex to stabilized reactants yields an increase in the net association rate. We propose to study the radical-complex mechanism using high level ab-initio kinetics approach and first principle electronic structure methods. The theoretical/computational approach involves development of a reduced dimensional, semi-global, potential energy surface (PES). This PES development is a novel approach due to high-dimensionality of the molecular system under study. For example, a simple oxidation reaction of CH3 with O2 in a monoatomic bath gas is a 15 dimensional system. The PES is developed by fitting high-level electronic structure energies for the radical-radical addition channel and R-M molecular system.The rate constant for the association reaction is calculated using variable reaction coordinate-transition state theory (VRC-TST) for different bath gas species. Project description: The computational methods used for the electronic structure calculations are available in codes like Molpro, Gaussian and similar quantum chemistry packages. The VRC-TST code is developed within our group. The size of calculations, typically, is about 40,000 to 50,000 electronic structure calculations for each system. The computational cost of each electronic calculation depend on the size of the basis set, electronic structure methods and other auxiliary routines. This can vary anywhere between 0.5 hours to couple of hours for a single electronic structure calculation, for the system we propose to study. There will be 3 to 4 people working on this project who will be using the computational resources. About 30-40% of the allocation will use non-parallel computations. This work is part of Combustion EFRC. Please see this web link for a brief overview. http://www.princeton.edu/cefrc/ Project URL: Requested allocation: 200000 Justification: The requester has used 0 hours of their initial startup project. In addition to approving an initial amount, please specify a Category and Subcategory for this project. For a list of the current selection of approved categories, please see: https://wiki.lcrc.anl.gov/wiki/Processes/Categories Once the Allocation committee has approved the project, please go to the Project Management page to create it: https://accounts.lcrc.anl.gov/projects.php Thank You, The LCRC Accounts System

Hello, A change in allocation has been requested: Requester: raok (Rao Kotamarthi) Project: Atmos_Chem Title: Process Scale Modeling of Atmospheric Chemistry and Transport Description: 1. What are the sources and sinks of the aerosols comprising the “Asian brown cloud,” and what effects does it have on clear-sky radiation fields, as well as on cloud micro- and macrophysical properties? What effect does the diurnal PBL cycle in the Ganges valley have on the atmospheric distribution of aerosols? Recent studies indicate that nearly 50 90% of the measured black carbon aerosols that give rise to brown clouds over the Indian Ocean are from biomass burning (residential cooking and agricultural burning), but little quantitative information is available regarding how properties of these aerosols — such as light scattering and absorption and droplet nucleating properties — evolve as a function of time near the source Ganges valley region. Very little is also known about the vertical structure of the distribution of aerosols and the fraction of the aerosols that are available for regional- and global-scale transport from the source region in the Ganges valley. The one-year long AMF deployment is uniquely positioned to make continuous, high frequency measurements through the atmospheric column of aerosol optical properties, radiative transfer and cloud properties. In addition, to bring additional focus on resolving some of the more regional and chemical composition relate d questions inherent in this objective, we propose to conduct a winter intensive field operation starting from January 15th 2012 to March 15th 2012, at a time where aerosol loading over this part of India is known to be the highest. During this intensive, the G 1 will add the additional capability of generating in situ measurements and vertical profiles within the PBL and above to generate estimates of the amounts of aerosols that are transported into the mid troposphere and to regional scales. Additional resources such as MAOS, a surface site below in the valley from the location of AMF and a number of supporting surface sites operated by ISRO/IISc will be available. A more detailed description of this intensive is provided below. 2. What effect do increasing aerosols in the Ganges Valley have on the ISM? What effect do aerosols have on shortwave radiative forcing, mid-tropospheric heating and convective activity over continental India? With the AMF, we will be in a position to make continuous, extended estimates of heating rates within cloud over continental India by measuring cloud properties, drop sizes, and LWC and making complete radiative balance measurements of clouds. The uncertainty in parameterization of deep convective activity in climate models has a profound impact on the calculated climate sensitivity to rising CO2. Deep convective activity is common during much of the summer and pre-monsoon period; the initial onset of monsoon over the southern tip of India is initiated by land-sea circulation and then enhanced and driven by deep convective activity over the northern Indian plains. Specific to this study would be an opportunity to measure the influence of aerosols on deep convection. This highly complex, little understood problem in modeling deep convection is complementary to the elevated heat pump hypothesis. Measurement of aerosols from surface supersites to identify their chemical and phys ical characteristics will provide key constraints to the estimates of radiative forcing heating rates from these aerosols in the PBL during the winter and early spring intensive as discussed above. A second intensive operating period, during the pre-monsoon, is planned for the period extending from April 15th 2011 to June 15th 2011 for the purpose of coupling the surface measurements made by the AMF with measurements of in situ cloud properties and aerosol measurements made the IISc/ISRO Beechcraft-20, as well as ongoing Indian activities (Aerosol Radiative Forcing over India; ARFI) to obtain a regional footprint. This would be the first ever such effort to synthesize the various measurements into a combined data product over this region that would be available for model validation and evaluating current cloud level aerosol heating hypotheses. We plan to use a combination of models for the project, including the CCSM4.0, GEOS-CHEM for aerosol transport and IMAGE model for aerosol cloud interactions. Current: undetermined amount Justification: Requested: 400000 A specific reason has been given: We seem to have run out of our allocation for the year. This needs to be approved and the final allocation amount decided upon. Thank You, The LCRC Accounts System

Weronika is asking for an advance on his project, Metastable_Materials, which is currently -133K in the hole. He requested 475K for the FY and was granted 237.5K (=1/2; not scaled by 80%, likely since it's priority 1, iirc). OK to advance 150K?
