description: Two different conformal field theories can be joined together along a defect line. We study such defects for the case where the conformal field theories on either side are single free bosons compactified on a circle. We concentrate on topological defects for which the left- and right-moving Virasoro algebras are separately preserved, but not necessarily any additional symmetries. For the case where both radii are rational multiples of the self-dual radius we classify these topological defects. We also show that the isomorphism between two T-dual free boson conformal field theories can be described by the action of a topological defect, and hence that T-duality can be understood as a special type of order-disorder duality.

description: Analyzing the readability of articles has been an important sociolinguistic task. Addressing this task is necessary to the automatic recommendation of appropriate articles to readers with different comprehension abilities, and it further benefits education systems, web information systems, and digital libraries. Current methods for assessing readability employ empirical measures or statistical learning techniques that are limited by their ability to characterize complex patterns such as article structures and semantic meanings of sentences. In this paper, we propose a new and comprehensive framework which uses a hierarchical self-attention model to analyze document readability. In this model, measurements of sentence-level difficulty are captured along with the semantic meanings of each sentence. Additionally, the sentence-level features are incorporated to characterize the overall readability of an article with consideration of article structures. We evaluate our proposed approach on three widely-used benchmark datasets against several strong baseline approaches. Experimental results show that our proposed method achieves the state-of-the-art performance on estimating the readability for various web articles and literature.

description: We study the evolution of two mixed Dirac neutrinos in an external axial-vector field. The dynamics of this system is described in the framework of relativistic wave equations approach on the basis of the known solutions of the Dirac equation in an external field with a given initial condition. The general solution of the initial condition problem, exactly accounting for the external field, is obtained. Then we consider special form of the external field which corresponds to the standard model neutrino interactions with the background matter. In this limit we derive the transition probability and compare it with the previously known results.

description: 27th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 3901-3904
description: A long-term outdoor exposure test was setup by SB Energy Corporation in Obihiro, Hokkaido, Japan.
The purpose was to increase understanding of module performance in harsh environments for multiple technologies
from different manufacturers. The resultant data and information about array construction, measurement and setup
was made freely available and is streaming in real-time online. Daily, monthly and yearly yield data was collected
and analysed from all ten photovoltaic arrays representing all ten manufacturers. These arrays varied in size between
3-5kWp of crystalline silicon, amorphous silicon tandem HIT (Hetrojunction with intrinsic Thin layer), CIS (Copper
Indium Selenium) and a- Si/μc-Si tandem technologies. Parameters such as kWh/kWp (energy production/peak rated
power), ambient temperature, and irradiance were reported. Additionally by utilizing a calculation method for
normalized degradation factor, this result was also periodically reported. New information was gathered about
seasonal fluctuation of module kWh/kWp output and degradation factor in low temperature, high snow load
environments for these manufactures. This is directly relevant for system integrators and system designers for
increasing energy yield and economic payback for large-scale photovoltaic plants.

The calculations are based on the quasiclassical kinetic equation with the normalization condition fixed by surface charge. The gate-voltage and temperature effects on the resistance peak, which is centered at the point of intrinsic conductivity, are found to be in agreement with the transport measurements.

description: Space observatories have provided unprecedented depictions of the many variability behaviors typical of low-mass, young stars. However, those studies have so far largely omitted more massive objects ($\sim$2 $M_\odot$ to 4-5 $M_\odot$), and were limited by the absence of simultaneous, multi-wavelength information. We present a new study of young star variability in the $\sim$1-2 Myr-old, massive Lagoon Nebula region. Our sample encompasses 278 young, late-B to K-type stars, monitored with Kepler/K2. Auxiliary $u,g,r,i,Hα$ time series photometry, simultaneous with K2, was acquired at the Paranal Observatory. We employed this comprehensive dataset and archival infrared photometry to determine individual stellar parameters, assess the presence of circumstellar disks, and tie the variability behaviors to inner disk dynamics. We found significant mass-dependent trends in variability properties, with B/A stars displaying substantially reduced levels of variability compared to G/K stars for any light curve morphology. These properties suggest different magnetic field structures at the surface of early-type and later-type stars. We also detected a dearth of some disk-driven variability behaviors, particularly dippers, among stars earlier than G. This indicates that their higher surface temperatures and more chaotic magnetic fields prevent the formation and survival of inner disk dust structures co-rotating with the star. Finally, we examined the characteristic variability timescales within each light curve, and determined that the day-to-week timescales are predominant over the K2 time series. These reflect distinct processes and locations in the inner disk environment, from intense accretion triggered by instabilities in the innermost disk regions, to variable accretion efficiency in the outer magnetosphere.

Dual Spikes; New Spiky String Solutions

description: We find a new class of spiky solutions for closed strings in flat, $AdS_3\subset AdS_5$ and $R\times S^2(\subset S^5)$ backgrounds. In the flat case the new solutions turn out to be T-dual configurations of spiky strings found by Kruczenski hep-th/0410226. In the case of solutions living in $AdS$, we make a semi classical analysis by taking the large angular momentum limit. The anomalous dimension for these dual spikes is similar to that for rotating and pulsating circular strings in AdS with angular momentum playing the role of the level number. This replaces the well known logarithmic dependence for spinning strings. For the dual spikes living on sphere we find that no large angular momentum limit exists.

description: An electrical power supply subsystem is the heart of the satellite which determines the performance and their lifetime. Searching for high power conversion efficiency is an important goal when designing an electrical power source for any satellite due to limited power availability and constrains imposed on satellite weight. In this paper, the electrical power supply subsystem (EPSS) for a remote sensing low earth orbit (LEO) satellite is simulated using
Simulink tools of MATLAB-7 software. This system under study contains the solar array, MPPT and voltage regulator converters, backup storage device and main loads for the satellite mission. Different control techniques will be introduced for optimal power generation, transmission and storage. The simulation results illustrated the daily solar arrays illumination, the daily variation of solar arrays and loads currents and battery voltage, current and depth of discharge.

description: Organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices have received increasing attention due to quite a few outstanding
features with respect to inorganic solar cells. The bulk heterojunction (BHJ) OPV solar cell made from the most
conventional conjugate semiconducting polymer i.e. P3HT (donor) and fullerene or fullerene derivative e.g. PCBM
(acceptor) blend has seen a power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 6%. The disordered morphology of donor and
acceptor (D/A) blend limits the PCE of OPV devices due to large recombination loss. Thus, an ideal morphological
structure was proposed, which is a vertical well-aligned D/A interpenetrating network with domain sizes comparable
to the exciton diffusion length. This ordered structure features efficient excitonic diffusion, dissociation and charge
carrier collection. Researchers have demonstrated wetting of freestanding anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template
and nanoimprinting with pre-pattern lithography molds to be capable to achieve the ordered D/A morphology.
However, these techniques are costly and complicated. This paper proposes an improved morphological control
technology utilizing the designed silicon wafer based AAO nano-imprinting mold to tackle the issues associated with
above techniques and it mainly reports the 1st stage of the work, which is the detailed preparation processes of this
designed AAO on Si mold and the characterization under high resolution scanning electron microscope (SEM),
focused ion beam (FIB) and atomic force microscope (AFM) for the investigation in its topology, cross-sectional
morphology and overall roughness.
Two Component Model of Dark Energy

description: We consider the possibility that the dark energy is made up of two or more independent components, each having a different equation of state. We fit the model with supernova and gamma-ray burst (GRB) data from resent observations, and use the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique to estimate the allowed parameter regions. We also use various model selection criteria to compare the two component model with the LCDM, one component dark energy model with static or variable w(XCDM), and with other multi-component models. We find that the two component models can give reasonably good fit to the current data. For some data sets, and depending somewhat on the model selection criteria, the two component model can give better fit to the data than XCDM with static w and XCDM with variable w parameterized by w = w_0 + w_az/(1+z).

description: Although there are more and more potential materials and promising researches for next generation
photovoltaic solar cells, cost effective crystalline-based Si, still dominates the global market. For recent years, monolike
silicon substrates have been noticed due to its low-cost and high-efficiency benefits. Mono-like silicon substrates
generally have one large-scale single grain in the center and many non-orientated sub-grains in the periphery, which
will cause the apparent differences of these two areas after surface texturing and will be one of the concerns for
customers. In this work, we compared different surface texturing sequences to minimize surface reflectance and
apparent differences, and successfully demonstrated over 18.5% conversion efficiency of mono-like silicon solar cell.
Detailed process and cell performance will be discussed.

description: The dependence of emitter saturation current density and interfacial trap density of Al2O3 passivated
silicon samples on deposition and post deposition conditions is investigated in detail. The films are deposited by
thermal and plasma-assisted atomic layer deposition. A corona discharge is used to apply more negative charge in
Al2O3, negatively charged dielectric, for analyzing the passivation properties. Our results show there are clear
differences in the interface defect density and charge density for films deposited using different oxidants, with
plasma-assisted films exhibiting the lowest mid-gap defect density and the highest charge density. The application of
negative charge causes the embedding of some of this charge in the film and a reduction in the emitter saturation
current density, especially for samples annealed at relatively low temperature. Following the application of negative
charge, differences in surface passivation (emitter saturation current density) of films deposited using different
oxidants or at different temperatures largely disappear.

description: The purpose of this work is research and development of the new low cost technique in monocrystalline
solar cells processing. The aim is to decrease production costs and to reach the higher efficiency of produced solar cells
in comparison with a standard industrial process.
There was investigated the new method to make an interruption of PN junction by etching off N+ layer. The second
important function of this etching is formation of glossy surface on one, back side of a solar cell.
This method enables to replace the process of N+ junction interruption by edge grinding or by laser isolation.
Furthermore it also enables to reach the higher cell efficiency by improving of optical properties due to decreasing losses
at textured surface and by improving of BSF contact on back side of solar cell.
There was developed the effective technique of single-side etching of monocrystalline silicon surface. Solar cells
produced by this new technique were measured and characterized to compare with solar cells made by standard industrial
process. There were estimated production costs for high-volume monocrystalline solar cells production by taking
advantage of this new innovative technique.
The new technology could be one of alternative ways of monocrystalline solar cells production. The advantages of
this process are production costs saving together with attainment the higher efficiency of produced solar cells.

description: We have used medium-energy ion scattering (MEIS) to quantitatively analyze the structure of holmium silicide islands grown on the Si(100) surface. Structure fitting to the experimental data unambiguously shows that the tetragonal silicide phase is present and not the hexagonal phase, which is associated with the growth of nanowires at submonolayer coverages. Islands formed with a lower holmium coverage of 3 ML are also shown to be tetragonal, which suggests that the hexagonal structure is not a low coverage precursor to the growth of the tetragonal phase. MEIS simulations of large nanoislands, which include the effects of lateral strain relief, have been performed and these compare well with the experimental data.

Coherence, efficiency, and independence of the EU environmental policy system: results of complementary statistical and econometric analyses

description: This paper presents the first empirical test of coherence (i.e., consistency of policies within a framework), efficiency (i.e., ability of policies to meet their objectives), and independence (i.e., logical priority of objectives over policies) of the overall EU environmental policy system. To do so, I applied statistical (cross-sectional and time series) and econometric (dynamic tri-probit) analyses to an original panel dataset, based on addressed issues rather than on implemented policies.
In contrast with previous studies of single EU environmental policies, characteristics of the EU environmental policy, or EU environmental objectives, I found that the overall EU environmental policy system is coherent, efficient, and independent. Moreover, the evidence suggests that many issues are correlated: trans-boundary issues became more relevant in 2012, pollution production was more significant than resource use, and flow issues were more important than stock issues from 1995 to 2010. Finally, I show that few objectives overlapped: a “safe environment” objective (1987 to 1997) was preferred to a “greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction” objective (2003 to 2012, but pursued with a 2-year lag), although the latter has recently become preferred to the former. In addition, a “GHG reduction” objective was preferred to “a sustainable development” objective (1998 to 2002).

performance. The Jsc increases from 36.415 to 36.904 mA/cm2 and the filling factor alos increases from 79.137 to
79.593 % owing to better conductive ZnO nanostructure, respectively. This result is further supported by the
efficiency of the solar cells. A cell efficiency of 18.217 % is achieved by the device with ZnO nanotube, with a gain
of 0.3 %, compared with that without ZnO nanotube.

CPT II Defekt ist als die häufigste autosomal-rezessiv vererbte Erkrankung des Lipidstoffwechsels und die häufigste Ursache der erblichen Myoglobinurie angesehen. Klinische, biochemische und molekulargenetische Daten von 59 Patienten mit Muskel-CPTII-Mangel wurden analysiert. Episoden von Myoglobinurie traten bei 80% der Patienten auf. Bei 95% war der auslösende Faktor die Körperliche Belastung. Obwohl die myopathische Form oft als Erwachsener Typ bezeichnet wird, war das Alter bei 61% der Patienten in der Kindheit. Alle biochemisch untersuchten Patienten (n=42) zeigten im Muskelhomogenat eine normale Enzymaktivität von Gesamt-CPT I+II, aber die Aktivität wurde signifikant durch Malonyl-CoA und Triton inhibiert. Die p.Ser113Leu-Mutation wurde bei 94% Indexpatienten in mindestens einem Allel nachgewiesen. Es gab keinen Unterschied im klinischen und biochemischen Phänotyp von Patienten mit p.Ser113Leu-Mutation in homozygoter oder Compound heterozygoter Form.
description: Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (CPT II) facilitates the transfer of long-chain fatty acids from cytoplasm into mitochondria during the oxidation of fatty acids. Deficiency this enzyme results in the most common inherited disorder of long-chain fatty acid oxidation affecting skeletal muscle. Clinical, biochemical and molecular genetic data in a cohort of 59 patients with muscle CPT II deficiency were analyzed. Attacks of myoglobinuria occurred in 80% patients. In 95% patients triggering factor was exercise. Although the myopathic form is often called the adult from, in 61% patients, the age of onset was in childhood (1-12 years). All the patients in whom biochemical activity was measured (n=42) had normal enzyme activity of total CPT I+II but the activity was significantly inhibited by malonyl-CoA and Triton. The p.Ser113Leu mutation was detected in 46/49 index patients (94%) in at least one allele. Thirteen other mutations were also identified. There was no notable difference in clinical and biochemical phenotype of patients with p.Ser113Leu mutation in homozygous or compound heterozygous form.

description: After a brief introduction to the concept of entanglement in quantum systems, I apply these ideas to many-body systems and show that the von Neumann entropy is an effective way of characterising the entanglement between the degrees of freedom in different regions of space. Close to a quantum phase transition it has universal features which serve as a diagnostic of such phenomena. In the second part I consider the unitary time evolution of such systems following a `quantum quench' in which a parameter in the hamiltonian is suddenly changed, and argue that finite regions should effectively thermalise at late times, after interesting transient effects.

description: A fundamental challenge in Deep Learning is to find optimal step sizes for stochastic gradient descent automatically. In traditional optimization, line searches are a commonly used method to determine step sizes. One problem in Deep Learning is that finding appropriate step sizes on the full-batch loss is unfeasibly expensive. Therefore, classical line search approaches, designed for losses without inherent noise, are usually not applicable. Recent empirical findings suggest, inter alia, that the full-batch loss behaves locally parabolically in the direction of noisy update step directions. Furthermore, the trend of the optimal update step size changes slowly. By exploiting these and more findings, this work introduces a line-search method that approximates the full-batch loss with a parabola estimated over several mini-batches. Learning rates are derived from such parabolas during training. In the experiments conducted, our approach is on par with SGD with Momentum tuned with a piece-wise constant learning rate schedule and often outperforms other line search approaches for Deep Learning across models, datasets, and batch sizes on validation and test accuracy. In addition, our approach is the first line search approach for Deep Learning that samples a larger batch size over multiple inferences to still work in low-batch scenarios.

description: The development of front side solar cell metallization pastes is triggered by the potential to enable
higher cell efficiencies. The performance of such metallization pastes with respect to cell efficiency is driven by
contact resistance and finger resistivity. The essential properties for module integration are the adhesion of the
metallization on the wafer and the solderability. In this work we compare a new front side metallization paste with
previous generations with respect to joint adhesion. A thorough investigation at the solder joints was carried out by
means of adhesion tests and metallographic analyses. This qualification program includes testing of joints after
isothermal heat storage to simulate longer periods of intermetallic diffusion processes. Furthermore, we selected the
best performers in terms of adhesion and solderability to manufacture small modules that were exposed to accelerated
aging tests. We were able to indicate the relation between the failure mode and the responsible properties of the paste.
In general, strong diffusion processes in the metallization are known to weaken the joints and lead to reduced
adhesion. The evaluated novel metallization paste exhibits such a reduced diffusion activity and the measured
adhesion outperforms the other 4 generations.
Drone Launched Short Range Rockets

description: A concept of drone launched short range rockets (DLSRR) is presented. A drone or an aircraft rises DLSRR to a release altitude of up to 20 $km$. At the release altitude, the drone or an aircraft is moving at a velocity of up to 700 $m/s$ and a steep angle of up to 68$^o$ to the horizontal. After DLSRRs are released, their motors start firing. DLSRRs use slow burning motors to gain altitude and velocity. At the apogee of their flight DLSRRs release projectiles which fly to the target and strike it at high impact velocity. The projectiles reach a target at ranges of up to 442 $km$ and impact velocities up to 1.88 $km/s$. We show that a rocket launched at high altitude and high initial velocity does not need expensive thermal protection to survive ascent. Delivery of munitions to target by DLSRRs should be much less expensive than delivery by a conventional rocket. %% Even though delivery of munitions by bomber aircraft is even less expensive, a bomber needs to fly close to the target, while a DLSRR carrier releases the rockets from a distance of at least 200 $km$ from the target. %% All parameters of DLSRRs, and their trajectories are calculated based on theoretical (mechanical and thermodynamical) analysis and on several MatLab programs.

Split distribution, biogeography and morphological and genetic diversity of the Iberobathynellini Tribe in the family Parabathynellidae (Crustacea, Malacostraca, Bathynellacea)

description: The “Iberobathynella group”, or Iberobathynellini tribe, is a complex of six genera consisting of 33 nominal species and several cryptic species with an amphiatlantic distribution (in Europe, North Africa and North America). A modern systematic revision of this group of subterranean crustaceans is presented here. A phylogenetic and biogeographic study using morphological and molecular data (mitocondrial COI and nuclear 18S) was carried out and allowed to a) re-evaluate the taxonomic status and validity of previously erected subtribes, genera and subgenera that show congruence in the data; b) assess whether the identified mitochondrial lineages represent cryptic species; c) provide a plausible phylogenetic hypothesis for the relationships within Iberobathynellini and with the other two genera of the family Parabathynellidae that inhabit North America and Europe (Montanabathynella and Parabathynella, respectively); d) propose a plausible temporal and historical framework (paleobiogeographic scenario) for the diversification and evolution of the Iberobathynellini tribe based on the current distribution of morphotypes and their estimated times of divergence. Our results show that in parabathynellids, molecular and morphological divergences are not always congruent. Subtribe and subgenus are invalid categories so they must be eliminated. Paraiberobathynella genus needs to be revisited. The molecular dating results support the early divergence of the Iberobathynellini Tribe (Upper Cretaceous, around 78 Mya) and the vicariance by plate tectonics as main factor to explain the amphi-Atlantic distribution shown by this ancient subterranean crustacean group. Since there are species morphologically very similar to I. magna and I. imuniensis, but genetically different, we can ensure the existence of at least three cryptic species. Texanobathynella is undoubtedly a valid genus distinct from Iberobathynella. Montanabathynella and Parabathynella are two well-differentiated genera closely related to the Iberobathynellini tribe.

description: It is non-trivial to recognize phase transitions and track dynamics inside a stochastic process because of its intrinsic stochasticity. In this paper, we employ the deep learning method to classify the phase orders and predict the damping coefficient of fluctuating systems under Langevin's description. As a concrete set-up, we demonstrate this paradigm for the scalar condensation in QCD matter near the critical point, in which the order parameter of chiral phase transition can be characterized in a $1+1$-dimensional Langevin equation for $σ$ field. In a supervised learning manner, the Convolutional Neural Networks(CNNs) accurately classify the first-order phase transition and crossover based on $σ$ field configurations with fluctuations. Noise in the stochastic process does not significantly hinder the performance of the well-trained neural network for phase order recognition. For mixed dynamics with diverse dynamical parameters, we further devise and train the machine to predict the damping coefficients $η$ in a broad range. The results show that it is robust to extract the dynamics from the bumpy field configurations.

description: Quantum well solar cells (QWSC) are novel devices with the potential to achieve high efficiency in an
alternative approach to tandem or cascade cells. Spectrally tuned quantum well solar cells were designed and
fabricated to deliver enhanced performance under the specific spectral resource of Cyprus. Non-destructive
techniques such as external quantum efficiency (EQE) and electroluminescence (EL) have been used to characterize
the innovative devices and indicate differences in performance between quantum wells with different Indium content
and number of wells. For the investigation of carrier injection mechanisms in the cells, examination of the current and
temperature dependence of the EL characteristics has been performed. Preliminary results from EL tests displayed
multiple peaks in the region of quantum wells whereas reduced radiative recombination was observed at higher
temperatures due to thermal escape of carriers via tunnelling. Additionally EQE measurements displayed the effect of
quantum wells in the short-circuit current of the cells by indicating redshift of the cut-off wavelength. Finally our
initial studies have shown that there is an excellent agreement between the resulting EQE and EL curves.
