description: Light funnel arrays serve as an efficient absorbing layers on account of their light trapping capabilities
associated with the excitation of three-dimensional complex Mie modes. Specifically, broadband absorption enhancement
of the solar spectrum is noticeable for free floating light funnel arrays. We show that a light funnel (LF) arrays with bottom
LF diameter of 100 nm and height of 4 μm exhibit absorption enhancement of ~52.4 % and ~12.5 % relative to thin film
and an optimized nanopillar arrays.

description: Neutrino flavor evolution in core-collapse supernovae, neutron-star mergers, or the early universe is dominated by neutrino-neutrino refraction, often spawning "self-induced flavor conversion", i.e., shuffling of flavor among momentum modes. This effect is driven by collective run-away modes of the coupled "flavor oscillators" and can spontaneously break the initial symmetries such as axial symmetry, homogeneity, isotropy, and even stationarity. Moreover, the growth rates of unstable modes can be of the order of the neutrino-neutrino interaction energy instead of the much smaller vacuum oscillation frequency: self-induced flavor conversion does not always require neutrino masses. We illustrate these newly found phenomena in terms of simple toy models. What happens in realistic astrophysical settings is up to speculation at present.

description: In this paper, we demonstrated that the efficiency of p-type mono PERC cells could be further improved by both front side and backside optimizations. These improved process technologies are including: a) lightly doped emitters (LDE); b) backside passivation layer engineering and laser pattern modification. The lightly doped emitters with a lower surface dopant concentration which helps reduce front surface and emitter recombination; the backside passivation layer and laser pattern optimizations which improve backside recombination and internal reflection of the cells. As compared to the standard p-mono PERC cells, a significant average efficiency gain of 0.3~0.4 % was achieved. We also demonstrated that an average efficiency of 21.51 % with the best efficiency of 22.09 % was achieved with these technologies.

description: A few-body proton image, expected to be derivable from QCD in the renormalization group procedure for effective particles, is used within the Monte Carlo Glauber model to calculate the anisotropy coefficients in the initial collision-state of matter in high-energy high-multiplicity proton-proton interaction events. We estimate the ridge-like correlations in the final hadronic state by assuming their proportionality to the initial collision-state anisotropy. In our estimates, some distinct few-body proton structures appear capable of accounting for the magnitude of p-p ridge effect, with potentially discernible differences in dependence on multiplicity.

An econometric analysis of the mechanisms for increasing human capital through conditional cash transfer programs in Colombia

Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Using information from a Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) program in Colombia, this thesis examines some of the mechanisms through which such initiatives contribute to improving human capital in poor households. These programs offer poor households a monetary transfer contingent on children attending regular visits to the doctor and school attendance. First, we look at the causal effect of children’s improved physical development due to the program on their cognitive development. We estimate this effect by instrumenting an intent-to-treat effect of treatment on the anthropometric measures. We find that exposure to the program does not explain gains in physical development one year after the intervention but it reduces the incidence of being underweight four and ten years later. These differentials in physical development explain around one quarter of a standard deviation gain in long-run cognitive development. Improvements in height are found only in children younger than 2. Second, improved child health is one primary aim of CCT programs; we investigate if there are potential spillover effects on the health of other non-targeted adults living in the same household as the child. We use a difference-in-difference model to estimate the intent-to-treat estimate of the spillover effect. We find significant improvements in the health of adults in treatment households, both in terms of incidence of illness (in the short run) and in the severity of illness (in the medium run). The main channel for this effect seems to be the availability of better information and the creation of a health public good within the household as a result of the program. Finally, while CCT programs have been designed to improve long term human capital among poor families through incentives and conditions, we test if they change behaviour through changes in preferences and aspirations rather than, or in addition to, the effect of the conditions and incentives. Using the poverty score for program allocation we estimate the program effect on participation using a regression discontinuity (RD) design. We find no evidence of the program working through time preferences or parents’ aspirations for their children’s schooling in participating households. The positive program impacts on health and nutrition status of children and adults identified in this thesis and the effects on schooling identified in previous studies have important implications in terms of long run human capital development of children in poor households, for example, the receipt of higher wages when adults. However, those impacts appear to be driven by the ongoing receipt of the cash transfers and the associated conditions. Thus if the program was to stop, we would expect investment in children’s human capital to revert to pre-program levels.

description: Plasmonics is known to contribute enormously in enhancing solar cell efficiency provided that the
challenges how to incorporate plasmonic nanoscatterers has been taken care of effectively. Here in this work, spectral
absorption profile for a typical model, silver (Ag) nanoparticles on crystalline silicon along with various interparticle
gaps, has been numerically analyzed using finite difference time domain simulation. Parameters (solar spectrum 460,
650 and 1100 nm; Ag nanoparticles diameter of 100 nm; interparticle gaps of 0, 2 and 5 nm; etc.) were chosen in
such a way so that the simulative results can be realized with the experimental evidence. Further in-depth lookout has
been carried out by extracting excitation generation rate distribution of the same models at different wavelengths of
solar spectrum. The predicted understanding was implemented by designing Ag nanoparticles incorporated thin film
solar cells with substrate and superstrate configurations. A simple and easy-to-prepare process was introduced to
achieve such plasmonic structures on c-Si as well as on transparent conducting oxide suitable for thin film solar cell
applications. As-fabricated Ag nanoparticles were found to be 100 nm on average and of wide range of interparticle
gap distribution. Such an approach to achieve plasmonic nanoscatterers supported by simulative prediction would be
very useful for substrate and superstrate configurations of plasmonic solar cell.
The role of social networks in knowledge transfer: a study of the small and medium scale agriculture sector in Zambia
Creators: name: Mwila, Natasha Katuta
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis is a study of social networks in the Zambian small and medium scale farmer sector. The purpose of this study is to enhance our understanding of how the social networks function in transferring knowledge across the sector actors. Knowledge transfer in this context is important because knowledge leads to process improvement. Both the quantity and quality of agricultural produce are expected to increase as an outcome of process improvement. This will improve the country’s food security position as well as improve economic welfare at household and national levels. Social networks are investigated because sector actors have relied on them as channels for knowledge transfer interventions. What this study reveals, however, is that the social networks through which knowledge is transferred are not adequately understood. This may be among the reasons for intervention failure in knowledge transfer efforts in the sector. The main research problem for this thesis then is to understand the nature of the social networks of Zambian small and medium scale farmers. Additionally, the thesis attempts to explain the role of the social networks in knowledge transfer facilitation and hindrance. The Zambian context and the small and medium scale farmer sector suffer a dearth of research. Consequently, too little is known about the context and this necessitates an exploratory approach to the study. For explorative purposes, the study is qualitative in nature. Qualitative research enables understanding of the study issue and this in turn may provide solutions to the research problems. An inductive research methodology is employed. What has emerged from the findings of this study is that individual actor attributes play an influential role in social networks. The role of individual actor attributes has been linked to social network outcomes of either knowledge transfer facilitation or hindrance. Specifically, the social identity of individual farmers is found to provide potential explanations for social network outcomes. This finding is unexpected and important because it provides a basis for questioning one of the key assumptions of social network theory. The key assumption that this study finding questions is that individual actor attributes are unimportant and must be ignored in social network theory applications. This thesis presents evidence to support the consideration of social identity in social network theory applications. Understanding the influence of social identity on social networks may enhance our ability to predict and explain social network outcomes. It is on this basis of enhancing prediction that social network theory ought to be revisited. In addition to the theoretical insights this thesis provides, the study makes contributions to literature and practice. The limitations of the study are acknowledged and explained. Directions for future research are presented.

description: 3D Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulent flows with initially magnetic and kinetic energies at equipartition spontaneously develop a magnetic excess (or residual energy), as well in numerical simulations and in the solar wind. Closure equations obtained in 1983 describe the residual spectrum as being produced by a dynamo source proportional to the total energy spectrum, balanced by a linear Alfvén damping term. A good agreement was found in 2005 with incompressible simulations; however, recent solar wind measurements disagree with these results. The previous dynamo-Alfvén theory is generalized to a family of models, leading to simple relations between residual and total energy spectra. We want to assess these models in detail against MHD simulations and solar wind data. The family of models is tested against compressible decaying MHD simulations with low Mach number, low cross-helicity, zero mean magnetic field, without or with expansion terms (EBM or expanding box model). A single dynamo-Alfvén model is found to describe correctly both solar wind scalings and compressible simulations without or with expansion. It is equivalent to the 1983-2005 closure equation but with critical balance of nonlinear turnover and linear Alfvén times, while the dynamo source term remains unchanged. The discrepancy with previous incompressible simulations is elucidated. The model predicts a linear relation between the spectral slopes of total and residual energies $m_R = -1/2 + 3/2 m_T$. Examining the solar wind data as in \cite{2013ApJ...770..125C}, our relation is found to be valid whatever the cross-helicity, even better so at high cross-helicity, with the total energy slope varying from $1.7$ to $1.55$.

description: As it is well known the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic modules decreases as their operating
temperature increases. This operating temperature of photovoltaic modules is influenced by the ambient temperature
and also by the amount of incident irradiation not converted into electric power, and which is transformed into heat in
the photovoltaic module. In this regard, crystalline silicon, with an average decrease of 0.45% per ºC above 25 ºC, is
the most sensitive technology to this effect. Moreover, the heating of photovoltaic modules has also and adverse
effect on their durability. This work aims at the spectral characterization of the temperature increase in encapsulated
monocrystalline silicon solar cells. More specifically, it is devoted to the quantification of the contribution to the
temperature increase of the different spectral regions of incident sunlight. This investigation has been greatly
motivated from the question whether it might make sense to develop solutions to reject the near-infrared part of the
incident solar spectrum (wavelengths above 1200 nm), which photons are not efficiently converted into electric
power by the crystalline silicon solar cells. In this sense, it is mandatory to characterize the contribution to the
photovoltaic module temperature increase of this part of the solar spectrum.

Масштабы цифровизации в мировой экономике и международной торговле быстро нарастают, а цифровое пространство становится ключевым полем для глобальной коммерции. Последствия цифровой трансформации для международной торговли проявляются в следующем: (1) изменения в структуре и конфигурации международной торговли, включая уход многих операций с реальными товарами и услугами в цифровую среду; (2) усиление глобальной конкуренции и ее смещение в нематериальную сферу; (3) появление новых форматов и возможностей для международного бизнеса благодаря цифровизации, повышение инклюзивности трансграничной коммерции и расширение “облачной” занятости, стирание граней между трансграничными и внутренними операциями в глобализированной цифровой среде; (4) регуляторные изменения в связи с быстрым ростом цифровой торговли с участием компаний, предпринимателей, домохозяйств и фактически вне юрисдикций, появление нового поколения дисциплин, относящихся к регулированию коммерческих отношений в надграничном виртуальном пространстве. Многие ожидаемые изменения будут иметь радикальный для устоявшегося представления о международной торговле характер.

description: Recent experimental advances in atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) metals have unveiled a range of interesting phenomena including the coexistence of charge-density-wave (CDW) order and superconductivity down to the monolayer limit. The atomic thickness of two-dimensional (2D) TMD metals also opens up the possibility for control of these electronic phase transitions by electrostatic gating. Here we demonstrate reversible tuning of superconductivity and CDW order in model 2D TMD metal NbSe$_2$ by an ionic liquid gate. A variation up to ~ 50% in the superconducting transition temperature has been observed, accompanied by a correlated evolution of the CDW order. We find that the doping dependence of the superconducting and CDW phase transition in 2D NbSe$_2$ can be understood by a varying electron-phonon coupling strength induced by the gate-modulated carrier density and the electronic density of states near the Fermi surface.

description: We present an analysis of series resistance losses in a 22% efficiency rear emitter bifacial silicon
heterojunction (SHJ) solar cell fabricated in the pilot-line of CEA-INES. This analysis is carried out using a well
known model [1] but adapted to SHJ cells to take into account considerations of a parallel connection of front TCO
and silicon bulk for lateral transport [2], as well as interface resistances between the layers of the SHJ cells [3]. The
effect of illumination on the silicon bulk resistivity under working conditions is also taken into account. The model
allows for a diagnostic of the cell to give insights on further optimizations.
Our results suggest the biggest part of the resistive losses in SHJ cells stems from the hydrogenated amorphous
silicon layers and their interfaces with indium tin oxide and crystalline silicon. This highlights the necessity of
interface engineering to improve cell efficiency.

description: Understanding the phases of strongly correlated quantum matter is challenging because they arise from the subtle interplay between kinetic energy, interactions, and dimensionality. In this quest it has turned out that even conceptually simple models of strongly correlated fermions, which often only approximately represent the physics of the solid state, are very hard to solve. Since the conjecture by P. W. Anderson that the two-dimensional Hubbard model describes the main features of high-T$_c$ superconductivity in the cuprates, there has been a major, yet inconclusive, research effort on determining its fundamental thermodynamic properties. Here we present an experimental determination of the equation of state of the repulsive two-dimensional Hubbard model over a broad range of interactions, $0\leq U/t \lesssim 20$, and temperatures, down to $k_BT/t=0.63(2)$, using high-resolution imaging of ultracold atoms in optical lattices. The equation of state fully characterizes the thermodynamics of the Hubbard model, and our results constitute benchmarks for state-of-the-art theoretical approaches.

description: The models relating current and voltage for a diode and other related devices contain many parameters and the relations often contain multiple terms hindering explicit formulae for specific parameters. Optimization procedures are useful for fitting a model to a dataset. In this study a Genetic Algorithm (GA) is proposed as a method to perform Parameter Optimization (PO) of the models used to describe a solar cell. In particular, a Genetic Algorithm for Parameter Optimization (GAPO is applied to the current voltage (I-V) relation of a multi-crystalline (mc) Si (photovoltaic) PV cell. A GA is a type of Evolutionary Algorithm based upon biological processes such as genetic crossover during sexual reproduction, genetic mutation, breeding pair selection, and other similar processes. GAs search the solution space with parallel proposed solutions, increasing the probability of convergence to a global minimum error for the solutions (array of parameters) obtained for the applied model to the data. Other, more classical approaches, such as the Gradient Descent parameter optimization, are prone to acquiring only local minima.

К началу 2017 г. заметно ослабли как некоторые факторы торможения российского экспорта услуг (обвал товарной торговли, обесценение рубля), так и часть факторов его роста (спрос со стороны развитых стран, приток иностранных инвестиций). В этих условиях автор предлагает обсудить целесообразность применения двух новых драйверов роста отечественного экспорта услуг: диверсификацию их географической структуры и более полное использование импортного потенциала развивающихся стран, а также использование редко применяемого в России способа поставки услуг на экспорт, так называемого «коммерческого присутствия». При анализе второго направления затронута проблема регулирования вывоза капитала в условиях инвестиционного спада.

description: Bifacial solar cells allow higher output power densities due to double-sided power generation compared to monofacial cells. An important step is the accurate measurement of the current-voltage (IV) characteristics of the cells under realistic conditions. The most accurate option to measure a bifacial solar cell is to illuminate the cells simultaneously from both sides. A new method for irradiance and short-circuit current correction for bifacial solar cells suitable for inline measurements in mass production is presented, where the crosstalk during a single-sided measurement and deviations of the ratio of the nominal to the measured irradiance at double-sided illumination measurements will be corrected by taking the bifaciality coefficient into account. This reduces typical measurement errors for the short-circuit current Isc below 0.1%. The simple approach, adding the front and the rear side irradiance directly to calculate the bifacial irradiance, shows Isc errors of more than 0.5% in typical measuring conditions and should not be used when the solar cell is double-sided illuminated.

description: The Electroweak interactions of a strongly coupled gauge theory are discussed with outlook beyond the Standard Model (BSM) under global and gauge anomaly constraints. The theory is built on a minimal massless fermion doublet of the SU(2) BSM flavor group (bsm-flavor) with a confining gauge force at the TeV scale in the two-index symmetric (sextet) representation of the BSM SU(3) color gauge group (bsm-color). The intriguing possibility of near-conformal sextet gauge dynamics could lead to the minimal realization of the composite Higgs mechanism with a light $0^{++}$ scalar, far separated from strongly coupled resonances of the confining gauge force in the 2-3 TeV range, distinct from Higgsless Technicolor. In previous publications we have presented results for the meson spectrum of the theory, including the light composite scalar, perhaps the emergent Higgs impostor. Here we discuss the critically important role of the baryon spectrum in the sextet model investigating its compatibility with what we know about thermal evolution of the early Universe including its galactic and terrestrial relics. For an important application, we report the first numerical results on the baryon spectrum of this theory from non-perturbative lattice simulations with baryon correlators in the staggered fermion implementation of the strongly coupled gauge sector. The quantum numbers of composite baryons and their spectroscopy from lattice simulations are required inputs for exploring dark matter contributions of the sextet BSM model, as outlined for future work.

description: Low-light applications often bring amorphous silicon and other thin-film cell technologies to mind.
While there has been work to improve the low-light efficiency of crystalline silicon solar cells, their potential has not
been fully described. The description of fundamental limits, and much of the work to realize those limits, has been
limited to one-sun illumination levels and higher. This work aims to establish the fundamental Auger limit for waferbased
silicon solar cells at illuminations lower than one-sun, the additional technological limits imposed by surface
recombination, shunt resistance, and recombination in the space charge region, and the degree to which low-light
potential of these devices had been realized. High efficiencies demonstrate that in choosing technologies for low
illuminations, crystalline silicon solar cells should not be overlooked.

description: Explaining observations in terms of causes and effects is central to all of empirical science. Correlations between entangled quantum particles, however, seem to defy such an explanation. To recover a causal picture in this case, some of the fundamental assumptions of causal explanations have to give way. Here we consider a broad class of models where one of these assumptions, Bell's local causality, is relaxed by allowing a direct influence from one measurement outcome to the other. We use interventional and observational data from a photonic experiment to bound the strength of this causal influence in a two-party Bell scenario and test a novel Bell-type inequality for the considered models. Our results demonstrate the incompatibility of quantum mechanics with an important class of nonlocal causal models, which includes Bell's original model as a special case. Recovering a classical causal picture of quantum correlations thus requires an even more counter-intuitive modification of our classical notion of cause and effect.

description: Due to the increased deployment of renewable energy sources and intelligent components the electric power system will exhibit a large degree of heterogeneity, which requires inclusive and multi-disciplinary system assessment. The concept of co-simulation is a very attractive option to achieve this; each domain-specific subsystem can be addressed via its own specialized simulation tool. The applicability, however, depends on aspects like standardised interfaces, automated case creation, initialisation, and the scalability of the co-simulation itself. This work deals with the inclusion of the Functional Mock-up Interface for co-simulation into the DIgSILENT PowerFactory simulator, and tests its accuracy, implementation, and scalability for the grid connection study of a wind power plant. The coupling between the RMS mode of PowerFactory and MATLAB/Simulink in a standardised manner is shown. This approach allows a straightforward inclusion of black-boxed modelling, is easily scalable in size, quantity, and component type.

description: In order to connect the information from incoming inspection and IV-characterization or even
crystallization information, wafers need to be identified and tracked. Identifying each wafer helps to provide a better
analysis of the influence or failures of production processing steps on each individual wafer rather than a general
statistical analysis approach of broader number of wafers. Nowadays, several wafer identification methods are
available to simplify the tracking of wafers. In this work, we present an approach of exploiting the already integrated
cameras within the inline characterisation equipment for automatic detection and recognition of wafer IDs. To do so,
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is applied through adapting Tesseract open source software with optimised preprocessed
images. Our approach presents an identifier of wafers which don’t have BSCs or DMCs but
alphanumerical wafer IDs. Before using our algorithm, (alpha)numerical wafer labeling is required. For numerical
wafer IDs in best cases, an average ID recognition rate of 99% was achieved. For alphanumerical wafer IDs,
automatic software correction is highly relevant to solve the confusion of software when switching from numbers to
letters and vice versa. A comparison between wafer ID reading techniques revealed that the best average wafer ID
reading accuracy of 98% was obtained using brick slice code reader. The data matrix code reader revealed an average
wafer ID accuracy of 93%. Finally, our OCR-based ID reader software had an average wafer ID reading accuracy of
85% for alphanumeric IDs.

description: Besides the spectral properties and the light intensity, the lateral homogeneity of the light field of solar simulators plays an important role for the accuracy of current-voltage-measurements. We have developed a new measurement approach and corresponding sensor which can determine the lateral inhomogeneity in few milliseconds. Our sensor design relies on a new matrix circuit allowing for a very compact and robust measurement setup. Using our sensor concept, we have evaluated five different commercially available solar simulators of different technologies, e.g. Xenon-based or LED-based, regarding their light field uniformity. We find lateral non-uniformities of up to 9%. However, no correlation between the technology under consideration and the non-uniformity values has been observed. Furthermore, we find that the inhomogeneity pattern can show large differences between various measurement systems even if the overall non-uniformity value is similar. This can be of particular importance when samples of reduced size, e.g. half cells or mini-modules, are measured.

description: Vertically aligned silicon nanowires (Si-NWs) facilitate efficient light trapping and thus been expected
long to improve thin film based solar cell efficiency. A vapor liquid solid technique has been exercised to grow Si-
NWs of coverage, ca. 6.5 × 108/cm2 in chemical vapor deposition reactor. A variation in dimensions (i.e. length and
diameter) of as-grown Si-NWs were further characterized through scanning electron microscope. Keeping in mind
the geometry of Si-NWs, a model was developed in finite different time domain analysis to extract several optical
characteristics (i.e. absorption depth profile, electromagnetic field distribution, Poynting vector, exciton generation
rate distribution, etc.) that influence the efficiency of nanowire based thin film solar cell. To the extend,
aforementioned optical characteristics were further analyzed spectral wise step by step ranging from near ultraviolet
to near infrared. Photon absorption at 700 nm was found to be most effective in this particular Si-NWs model system.
Correlated demonstration amongst absorption depth profile, electric field confinement, energy flow distribution and
excitation generation rate distribution as investigated in this work opens new avenues and possibilities to improve
current nanowires-based optoelectronic devices, particularly thin film solar cell.
Modeling long GRBs using a single shock with relativistic radiation hydrodynamics

description: We explore the possibility that a single relativistic shock, where the gas dynamics is coupled with radiation, can fit the light curves of long GRBs. For this we numerically solve the one dimensional relativistic radiation hydrodynamics equations with a single initial shock. We calculate light curves due to the evolution of this shock in terms of the velocity of the shock, the opacity of the gas, mass density and density of radiated energy. We explore how the variation of each of these parameters provides different features in the light curves. As examples we include the fitting of two long GRBs.

description: In the case of doped layers for p-i-n solar cells based μc-Si:H, the control of the thickness of the amorphous incubation zone deserves special attention. Since these being very thin layers, the first stage of amorphous growth can damage the properties of the solar cell, not only electrically, but also can negatively influence through high absorbing losses. In this paper n and p type doped μc-Si:H thin films were deposited by Hot Wire Chemical Vapor Deposition at low substrate temperature (TS ~ 100ºC). Pre-heating of the substrates and cyclically varying hydrogen dilution (CVH) were used to inhibit or reduce the formation of the amorphous phase during the first growth stage of the thin layer. By the implementation of an optical method based on Effective Medium Approximation (EMA) in transmittance and reflectance measurements, it was possible to determine both the optical properties and microstructure in surface, bulk and the initial stage of growth of the films. The results have been correlated with those of transmission electron microscopy. The results showed reduction of incubation amorphous thin films below 10 nm range.

description: We examine radiation-regulated accretion onto intermediate-mass and massive black holes (BHs) embedded in a bulge component. Using spherically symmetric one-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamics simulations, we track the growth of BHs accreting from a cold, neutral gas reservoir with temperature T=10^4 K. We find that the accretion rate of BHs embedded in bulges is proportional to r_{B,eff}/r_B, where r_{B,eff} is the increased effective Bondi radius that includes the gravitational potential of the bulge, and r_B is the Bondi radius of the BH. The radiative feedback from the BH suppresses the cold accretion rate to ~1 percent of the Bondi rate when a bulge is not considered. However, we find that the BH fueling rate increases rapidly when the bulge mass M_bulge is greater than the critical value of 10^6 M_sun and is proportional to M_bulge. Since the critical bulge mass is independent of the central BH mass M_{BH}, the growth rate of BHs with masses of 10^2, 10^4, and 10^6 M_sun exhibits distinct dependencies on the bulge-to-BH mass ratio. Our results imply that light seed BHs (<= 10^2 M_sun) which might be the remnants of the Pop III stars, cannot grow through accretion coevally with the early assembly of the bulge of the host galaxies until the bulge reaches the critical mass. However, massive BH seeds (>= 10^5 M_sun) that may form via direct collapse, are more likely to be embedded in a supercritical bulge and thus can grow efficiently coupling to the host galaxies and driving the early evolution of the M_{BH}-$σ$ relationship.
