In this computational study, we investigate the adsorption of superheavy elements Copernicium (Cn) and Flerovium (Fl), and their lighter homologs Mercury (Hg) and Lead (Pb), on a Selenium (100) surface. Our approach employs periodic Density Functional Theory (DFT) in Quantum ESPRESSO (open-source suite of codes)with spin-orbit coupling and DFT-D4 dispersion correction. Our resultsshow that while a standard Perdew-Burke Ernzerhof (PBE) setup (functional and pseudopotential) captures the correct adsorption trend, a hybrid approach using the Perdew-Burke- Ernzerhof for solids (PBEsol) functional with PBEsol pseudopotentials for Se and PBE pseudopotentials for the adsorbates provides superior accuracy for adsorption energy values. We further probed the adsorbate- surface interactions and stability through density of states, charge transfer, and vibrational analysis.

I'll give a brief overview of computational molecular physics (CMP) techniques in my talk. They fall into two groups: Molecular Mechanics (MM) and Quantum Mechanics (QM). MM approaches use predefined analytical interatomic potentials, whereas QM approaches rely on an approximate solution of the many-electron Schrödinger equation. Likewise I'll describe few open-source CMP applications that Govorun users can utilize for their scientific work at JINR.

The presentation demonstrates how the GPU resources of the HybriLIT platform at the JINR Laboratory of Information Technologies are used for deep learning models. It covers the organization of a virtual working environment and the installation of PyTorch with CUDA support. As an example, results are shown for computations using the State-Space Model (Mamba) architecture applied to tabular data.

Automated quantification of DNA repair foci in response to ionizing radiation

Room: MLIT-134/5-* - Conference Hall
Ionizing radiation induces a variety of DNA lesions, including DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), which are among the most challenging to repair. The formation of these lesions initiates a cascade of DNA repair protein recruitment, leading to the formation of radiation-induced foci (RIF). To automate the RIF analysis, we have followed a deep learning approach which consists of two stages; first a pretrained neural network called SAM2 is used to detect the cell nuclei in the fluorescent image, then the trained neural network YOLO on our foci-annotated data is used to detect RIF within each nucleus. Following RIF detection and individual image preprocessing on each focus location, the colocalized number of the two foci are calculated. Based on this model, we developed a web service on WRITER Framework for the automated RIF detection and quantification of object-based colocalization between two RIF populations. The web service MOSTLIT allows the user to observe the identified cell nuclei in an uploaded fluorescent image, choose the desired nuclei, automatically get the marked foci and obtain the numerical characteristics such as the number of RIF per cell, RIF area and colocalizations.

15:20 - 15:40
Room: MLIT-134/5-* - Conference Hall
The presentation will cover the main approaches to accelerating computations in Python. Special attention is given to the NumPy library, which provides efficient array operations and significantly improves performance. The use of the Numba JIT compiler is also discussed, enabling faster function execution by compiling them into machine code. To increase performance on multicore systems, CPU parallelism is introduced through the Joblib library, which simplifies task parallelization. In addition, the presentation explores the use of GPUs for computation with CuPy and Numba CUDA, allowing substantial reductions in processing time for large datasets. The Jupyter Book tool is also presented as a way to create interactive electronic books based on Jupyter Notebook, combining text, code, visualizations, and computations into a user-friendly format.

Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) simulations were performed on the Hybrilit quantum testbed at JINR. The testbed infrastructure is well suited for such research: significant computational resources are available, including multi-core CPUs, GPUs, and RAM; JupyterHub, as well as quantum simulators Cirq, Qiskit, qsim, and other are deployed. The problem of finding the ground state of the Ising model with a longitudinal magnetic field was solved for two- and three-dimensional lattices of various sizes. Quantum circuits with registers of up to 27 qubits were investigated. Optimization of variational ansatz parameters was carried out using both gradient-based and gradient-free methods. The processes and results of optimization performed by different methods were compared across several parameters. The dependence of computational efficiency on the configuration of used computational resources was demonstrated.

This master class demonstrates the potential of the Julia programming language for exploring multiparameter models described by systems of nonlinear differential equations. A model of a point φ0 Josephson junction of the superconductor-ferromagnet-superconductor type with a direct relationship between the magnetic moment and the Josephson current is considered as an example. A methodology for preparing a problem for calculations, the specifics of numerically solving systems of equations, and the capabilities of the Julia language for implementing parallel computations for calculating magnetic moment flip domains over a wide range of parameters are presented.
