description: The thermal stability of the amorphous silicon / silicon nitride double layer surface passivation on p-type crystalline silicon surfaces is investigated for various deposition temperatures of the silicon nitride capping layer. An increase
of deposition temperature from 300°C to 400°C results in a significant improvement of the thermal stability of the surface passivation. The minimum surface recombination velocity achieved on p-type (1.5 cm) silicon wafers is (0.75 ± 0.6) cm/s and remains at (10 ± 0.5) cm/s even after 30 min annealing at 500°C.

description: In this paper, we consider two-dimensional Riesz space fractional diffusion equations with nonlinear source term on convex domains. Applying Galerkin finite element method in space and backward difference method in time, we present a fully discrete scheme to solve Riesz space fractional diffusion equations. Our breakthrough is developing an algorithm to form stiffness matrix on unstructured triangular meshes, which can help us to deal with space fractional terms on any convex domain. The stability and convergence of the scheme are also discussed. Numerical examples are given to verify accuracy and stability of our scheme.

description: Let $f$ and $g$ be weight $k$ holomorphic cusp forms and let $S_f(n)$ and $S_g(n)$ denote the sums of their first $n$ Fourier coefficients. Hafner and Ivic [HI], building on Chandrasekharan and Narasimhan [CN], proved asymptotics for $\sum_{n \leq X} \lvert S_f(n) \rvert^2$ and proved that the Classical Conjecture, that $S_f(X) \ll X^{\frac{k-1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} + ε}$, holds on average over long intervals. In this paper, we introduce and obtain meromorphic continuations for the Dirichlet series $D(s, S_f \times S_g) = \sum S_f(n)\overline{S_g(n)} n^{-(s+k-1)}$ and $D(s, S_f \times \overline{S_g}) = \sum_n S_f(n)S_g(n) n^{-(s + k - 1)}$. Using these meromorphic continuations, we prove asymptotics for the smoothed second moment sums $\sum S_f(n)\overline{S_g(n)} e^{-n/X}$, proving a smoothed generalization of [HI]. We also attain asymptotics for analogous smoothed second moment sums of normalized Fourier coefficients, proving smoothed generalizations of what would be attainable from [CN]. Our methodology extends to a wide variety of weights and levels, and comparison with [CN] indicates very general cancellation between the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function $L(s, f\times g)$ and shifted convolution sums of the coefficients of $f$ and $g$. In forthcoming works, the authors apply the results of this paper to prove the Classical Conjecture on $\lvert S_f(n) \rvert^2$ is true on short intervals, and to prove sign change results on $\{S_f(n)\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$.

description: Several complex compounds that result from inserting atoms of certain transition metals in known
semiconductors are proposed as intermediate band materials that, used as light absorbers, would allow to increase
substantially photovoltaic efficiency. In particular, these are sulphides containing indium in octahedral coordination
as the spinel CdIn2S4 or scandium (Sc2S3, with a defect NaCl structure) with the trivalent element partially
substituted by Ti or V, and the silicon clathrate of type II (having a fcc Bravais lattice with 34 Si atoms per primitive
cell) in which V substitutes partially Si or Ag is occluded in the intracrystalline cavities. DFT calculations show that
in several of these structures the added metal gives rise to a partially occupied, relatively narrow band located
between the conduction and valence bands. Some of these structures have been synthesized experimentally, and we
show UV-Vis-NIR spectra agreeing with the DFT predictions.

description: ISFOC is achieving its goal of making installations of CPV technologies up to 3MW. We are carrying
out the acceptance of all the installations, determining the Nominal Power of each Plant. For this purpose we have
developed a procedure to obtain the Nominal Power of the Plant. This Nominal Power is calculated at the Standard
Test Conditions (STC) of ISFOC (850W/m2 and 60ºC for the cell temperature). This rating of the Plant is made in
two steps; first the DC Power is calculated by measuring the I-V Curves of the concentrators and translating the
results to the STC, after a control of the energy generated by the plant is done to calculate the AC power. We can
advance that all the results are reaching the expected values. Also, for the time since we have the connection to the
grid, we have made the first analysis to the real performance of these plants. From this analysis we can extract that
the plants are working really good, reaching an average value for the efficiency of the complete plant of 20%.

description: This paper presents the characterization of five different concentrating photovoltaic (CPV) module
technologies carried out with the Helios 3198 solar simulator at IES-UPM. The current-voltage characteristics under
Standard Reporting Conditions (SRC) and the angular transmission curve were measured for each of these technologies.
These parameters were also measured outdoors and then corrected to indoor conditions in order to compare them and
demonstrate the validity of the indoor measurement. To ensure SRC indoors, a novel irradiance sensor has been used: a
single lens-cell assembly of the same technology as the module to be measured, or “monomodule”, which accounts for small
differences between angular and electromagnetic spectra of the solar simulator light and that of the sun. Component
(‘isotype’) cells are used alongside this sensor for assuring standard light spectrum indoors.

description: We develop a theory for the analytic computation of the free energy of band insulators in the presence of a uniform and constant electric field. The two key ingredients are a perturbation-like expression of the Wannier-Stark energy spectrum of electrons and a modified statistical mechanics approach involving a local chemical potential in order to deal with the unbounded spectrum and impose the physically relevant electronic filling. At first order in the field, we recover the result of King-Smith, Vanderbilt and Resta for the electric polarization in terms of a Zak phase - albeit at finite temperature - and, at second order, deduce a general formula for the electric susceptibility, or equivalently for the dielectric constant. Advantages of our method are the validity of the formalism both at zero and finite temperature and the easy computation of higher order derivatives of the free energy. We verify our findings on two different one-dimensional tight-binding models.

description: While the increased automation levels of production and operation equipment have led to improved productivity of mining activity in open pit mines, the capacity of mine transport system become a bottleneck. The optimization of mine transport system is of great practical significance to reduce the production and operation cost and improve the production and organizational efficiency of mines. In this paper we first formulate a multi-objective optimisation problem for mine railway scheduling by introducing a set of mathematical constraints. As the problem is NP-hard, we then devise a Mixed Integer Programming based solution to solve this problem, and develop an online framework accordingly. We finally conduct test cases to evaluate the performance of the proposed solution. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed solution is efficient and able to generate train schedule in a real-time manner.
New integrable non-gauge 4D QFTs from strongly deformed planar N=4 SYM

description: We consider the $γ$-deformed $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM in the double scaling limit of large imaginary twists and small coupling, which discards the gauge fields and retains only certain Yukawa and scalar interactions with three arbitrary effective couplings. In the 't~Hooft limit, these 4D theories are integrable, with most of the correlators being conformal such that the whole arsenal of AdS/CFT integrability remains applicable. In particular, for one non-zero effective coupling, we obtain a QFT of two complex scalars with a chiral, quartic interaction. The BMN vacuum anomalous dimension is dominated in each non-zero loop order by a single "wheel" graph, in principle computable by integrability. Thus we also provide an explicit conjecture for the periods of double-wheel graphs with an arbitrary number of spokes.

description: Condition assessment is a crucial step in maintaining and managing existing concrete bridges. Most of the studies consider defects and their severity levels in the evaluation process in the literature. As of now, underlying causes, which play an important role in magnifying existing defects, do not get much attention in the assessment process as per the literature. Thus, this study proposes an integrated Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and fuzzy-Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (fuzzy-TOPSIS) approach to rank defects considering underlying causes. Here, causes and sub-causes are considered as criteria and sub-criteria, respectively. AHP is used to determine relative importance weights of causes and sub-causes. The final defects ranking is obtained using fuzzy-TOSIS. The applicability of the model is demonstrated through a case study on a reinforced concrete bridge deck in Gujarat, India, where ‘cracks’ is obtained as the most critical defect for this specific case. The robustness of the model is examined by a sensitivity analysis. The proposed approach can help bridge owners to enhance the existing decision-making process of concrete bridges. Moreover, this approach can be considered as a first step into a new way of ranking defects of a more comprehensive system.

description: We review the history of Newton-Cartan gravity with an emphasis on recent developments, including the covariant, off-shell large speed of light expansion of general relativity. Depending on the matter content, this expansion either leads to Newton-Cartan geometry with absolute time or to Newton-Cartan geometry with non-relativistic gravitational time dilation effects. The latter shows that non-relativistic gravity includes a strong field regime and goes beyond Newtonian gravity. We start by reviewing early developments in Newton-Cartan geometry, including the covariant description of Newtonian gravity, mainly through the works of Trautman, Dautcourt, Künzle and Ehlers. We then turn to more modern developments, such as the gauging of the Bargmann algebra, and we describe why the latter cannot be used to find an off-shell covariant description of Newtonian gravity. We review recent work on the $1/c$ expansion of general relativity and show that this leads to an alternative `type II' notion of Newton-Cartan geometry. Finally, we discuss matter couplings, solutions and odd powers in $1/c$, and we conclude with a brief summary of related topics.

description: In the context of the phase retrieval problem, it is known that certain natural classes of measurements, such as Fourier measurements and random Bernoulli measurements, do not lead to the unique reconstruction of all possible signals, even in combination with certain practically feasible random masks. To avoid this difficulty, the analysis is often restricted to measurement ensembles (or masks) that satisfy a small-ball probability condition, in order to ensure that the reconstruction is unique. This paper shows a complementary result: for random Bernoulli measurements, there is still a large class of signals that can be reconstructed uniquely, namely those signals that are "non-peaky." In fact, this result is much more general: it holds for random measurements sampled from any subgaussian distribution D, without any small-ball conditions. This is demonstrated in two ways: first, a proof of stability and uniqueness, and second, a uniform recovery guarantee for the PhaseLift algorithm. In all of these cases, the number of measurements m approaches the information-theoretic lower bound. Finally, for random Bernoulli measurements with erasures, it is shown that PhaseLift achieves uniform recovery of all signals (including peaky ones).

description: This article examines experimentally and numerically the flexural performance of low-strength reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened using near-surface mounted (NSM) carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) rods. Five RC rectangular beams were tested in four-point bending until failure. Four of these beams were strengthened using Bottom NSM (BNSM) or Side NSM (SNSM) rods. The results are discussed in terms of observed damage, load capacity, and midspan deflection. It is shown that the SNSM strengthening solution enhanced the cracking load of the beams by up to 19%. Similarly, the yield and ultimate load-carrying capacities of the strengthened beams increased by up to 31% and 64%, respectively. It is also shown that moment-curvature and FE approaches predict well the deflections of the strengthened RC beams within 20% and 10% of accuracy at failure. The results from nonlinear Finite Element (FE) analyses showed a better agreement with the experimental results up to failure (within a 10% of accuracy). For the beams presented in this study, the crack widths calculated by Eurocode 2 match reasonably well the measured values.

description: Existing API mining algorithms can be difficult to use as they require expensive parameter tuning and the returned set of API calls can be large, highly redundant and difficult to understand. To address this, we present PAM (Probabilistic API Miner), a near parameter-free probabilistic algorithm for mining the most interesting API call patterns. We show that PAM significantly outperforms both MAPO and UPMiner, achieving 69% test-set precision, at retrieving relevant API call sequences from GitHub. Moreover, we focus on libraries for which the developers have explicitly provided code examples, yielding over 300,000 LOC of hand-written API example code from the 967 client projects in the data set. This evaluation suggests that the hand-written examples actually have limited coverage of real API usages.

description: Coherent multidimensional optical spectroscopy techniques are broadly applied across the electromagnetic spectrum ranging from NMR to the UV. These reveal properties of matter through correlation plots of signal fields generated in response to sequences of short pulses with variable delays. Here we discuss a new class of multidimensional techniques obtained by time-and-frequency resolved photon coincidence counting measurements of N photons which constitutes a 2N dimensional spectrum. A compact description of these signals is developed based on time ordered superoperators rather than the normally ordered ordinary operators used in Glauber's photon counting formalism.The independent control of the time and frequency gate parameters reveals details of matter dynamics not available otherwise. Application to an anharmonic oscillator model with fluctuating energy and anharmonicity demonstrates the power of these signals.

With this technology, we have successfully achieved a cell efficiency at 18.3 % (Isc, Voc, FF are 8.68 A, 0.626 V, 78.5 %, respectively) independently confirmed by AIST (Japan National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology) on 15 cm × 15.5 cm multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) solar cell. After this success, this project was registered as a NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization, Japan) project. We are focusing on a basic design of back-contact cell and a development of high efficiency cell process using very thin mc-Si wafer in this project. The efficiency of 19.5 % with n-type CZ silicon wafer has been achieved with hetero-junction structure and the efficiency over 17 % with 15 cm  15.5 cm mc-Si wafer at 100 μm thickness has been achieved with MWT cell structure in this project.

description: There is a well-known analogy between integers and polynomials over $F_q$, and a vast literature on analytic number theory for polynomials. From a geometric point of view, polynomials are equivalent to effective 0-cycles on the affine line. This leads one to ask: Can the analogy between integers and polynomials be extended to 0-cycles on more general varieties? In this paper we study prime factorization of effective 0-cycles on an arbitrary connected variety $V$ over $F_q$, emphasizing the analogy between integers and 0-cycles. For example, inspired by the works of Granville and Rhoades, we prove that the prime factors of 0-cycles are typically Poisson distributed.

description: ESA's Rosetta spacecraft will be the first to undertake the long-term exploration of a comet at close
quarters. Launched in March 2004 by an Ariane-5, the spacecraft will enter orbit around Comet67P/Churyumov-
Gerasimenko in 2014, will release a small lander onto the icy nucleus and then spend the next two years orbiting the
comet as it heads towards the Sun. The ROSETTA solar cells have been specifically designed to be able to generate
power in the regions of deep space, to which the ROSETTA satellite will travel, in order to be able to meet the
designated comet target. The 2 wings-Solar Array embody not only the PVA necessary to power the satellite (250
strings of 91 solar cells) in the very different phases of the mission, but also two ‘monitoring strings’ whose aim is to
provide electrical and temperature data, in order to manage the Maximum Power Point Tracker system. In the first 5
years of mission, the telemetry of the monitoring strings have already allowed us to collect a large amount of
precious data providing information on the in-orbit performance of the ROSETTA solar cells: the short circuit
current and the open circuit voltage of the monitoring string, the corresponding temperature, the voltage and current
of each array power regulator module. The paper reports the first results of the flight data analysis.

description: In order to explain some of the cardiovascular effects of ozone (O 3) exposure, the aim was to study whether O 3 causes inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression and nitrotyrosine (NT) formation in aorta. Male Wistar rats were exposed to O 3 (0.25 ppm, 4 h a day) or filtered air (<0.05 ppm of O 3). One hour after O 3 exposure, animals were sac-rificed by anesthesia overdose. Thoracic aorta was isolated and iNOS and NT (marker of peroxynitrite) were detected by immunohistochem-istry. Time-dependent positive iNOS (1.1±0.2, 2.7±0.8 and 7.2±1.8 % of positive cells for 7, 14 and 28 days of exposure, respectively, p<0.05) and NT (1.1±0.06, 1.7±0.3 and 6.9±1.2 % of positive cells for 7, 14, and 28 days of exposure, respectively, p<0.01) cells were observed. Control animals did not show any positive cell for iNOS or NT. It is concluded that O 3 exposure caused iNOS expression and peroxynitrite formation in rat aorta.

description: Network models, in which psychopathological disorders are conceptualized as a complex interplay of psychological and biological components, have become increasingly popular in the recent psychopathological literature. These network models often contain significant numbers of unknown parameters, yet the sample sizes available in psychological research are limited. As such, general assumptions about the true network are introduced to reduce the number of free parameters. Incorporating these assumptions, however, means that the resulting network will lead to reflect the particular structure assumed by the estimation method---a crucial and often ignored aspect of psychopathological networks. For example, observing a sparse structure and simultaneously assuming a sparse structure does not imply that the true model is, in fact, sparse. To illustrate this point, we discuss recent literature and show the effect of the assumption of sparsity in three simulation studies.

description: We propose a method to maximize worldwide supply chain efficiencies for semiconductor manufacturers. Currently, high cost semiconductor wafers that do not yield product chips are scrapped and are sold cheaply to external processing firms. We present a path to improve the cost recovery by taking these scrapped wafers and applying a recycling process that enables their use to build cost competitive concentrator cells. This is achieved while maintaining CMOS process compatibility to enable parallel processing within the same fabrication line. This optimized use of the silicon benefits the world feedstock and provides an efficient cost recovery for the integrated
device manufacturer (IDM). In the scrap wafer solar cell build, wafers that have seen a variety of CMOS processing are run through a scrap recycling process and cells are fabricated on them using CMOS compatible processes. In the fabrication line, solar wafers have the lowest priority routing compared to CMOS to enable optimized use of all the tooling required without impacting the production schedules to achieve optimal line utilization and revenue. Since CMOS processing can lower bulk lifetimes, cells made from scrap wafers have lower efficiencies at 1 sun but efficiencies improve strongly under concentration. Simulations show that 12-13 % efficiencies are possible under low concentration levels even for minority carrier lifetimes around 1 microsecond, and even moderate improvements in lifetime to the 2 - 10 microseconds range found in of solar grade material could improve the efficiency to nearly 14 % at 10-20x suns concentration.

description: Введение. Применение полиграфа при расследовании преступлений по-прежнему порождает немало дискуссионных вопросов в теории и проблем производства исследований и экспертиз на практике. Целью исследования являлся анализ мнений следователей о практике и эффективности применения полиграфа в процессе расследования преступлений. Ставились задачи: изучить статистику назначений исследований и экспертиз с использованием полиграфа; проанализировать мнения следователей об эффективности применения полиграфа в раскрытии преступлений, а также о проблемах, возникающих при назначении и производстве исследований с использованием полиграфа. Материалы и методы. Использовались методы анализа нормативных правовых актов и научной литературы, анкетирования, математической обработки результатов исследования. Была разработана анкета, содержащая более 50 вопросов об эффективности применения полиграфа в раскрытии преступлений, об отношении следователей к этому виду исследований, о проблемах, возникающих при назначении и производстве исследований и экспертиз с использованием полиграфа. В исследовании приняли участие более 250 следователей из региональных следственных управлений и следственных отделов Следственного комитета Российской Федерации. Результаты и обсуждение. Большинство опрошенных следователей считают метод полиграфа достаточно эффективным, доверяют результатам исследований с использованием полиграфа и применяют их в своей практической деятельности. При этом половина их считает, что результаты исследований на полиграфе должны признаваться в качестве доказательств. Однако в силу несовпадения с другими доказательствами по делу часто следователи вынуждены использовать данные результаты только в качестве ориентирующей информации. Серьезными препятствиями для повышения эффективности исследований с использованием полиграфа в раскрытии и расследовании преступлений являются сложность организации данного вида исследований и экспертиз, отказы граждан от прохождения исследования на полиграфе, а также неприятие судами результатов исследований и экспертиз с использованием полиграфа в качестве доказательств. Выводы. Поскольку по предмету, объектам и методам исследование с использованием полиграфа представляет собой психологический эксперимент, его необходимо теоретически и методически развивать в русле психологической диагностики, экспериментальной психологии и судебной психологической экспертизы, что позволит разрешить многие, существующие сейчас между учеными и практиками разногласия по проблемам полиграфа.

description: Leveraging a new 150-year dynamical downscaling dataset at convection-permitting resolution, this set of Python/R/Bash shell scripts introduces a tool to construct the projected future intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves of heavy precipitation, which are prominent tools for infrastructure design and water resources management. This tool generates IDF curves at both sub-daily and multi-day duration utilizing hourly in situ observations as well as quantile-based statistical techniques in bias-correction and return levels selection. The assumption of non-stationary in the distribution parameter fitting process is also implemented in this workflow.

Solar Cells, Modules and PV Systems for Space Applications

description: 24th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference, 21-25 September 2009, Hamburg, Germany; 101-105
description: This paper describes the design and manufacturing of solar cells and panels for the last generation of Russian
spacecraft. The high efficiency solar cells based on III-V compounds are the best approach to increase the specific power and
the lifetime of the solar arrays. The semi-rigid mesh technology originally developed by KVANT for silicon cells, and
successfully applied in space for decades, has been recently utilized in conjunction with the triple junction solar cells (CTJ)
produced by CESI to power several classes of Russian satellites [1]. This paper describes the manufacturing of thousands of
CTJ solar cells with a size of 26.5 cm2 and 140 μm thickness. The CTJ solar cells efficiency class was improved from the
early 26% to the present 28%. The 28% efficiency class was recently developed and qualified by CESI [2]. This paper details
the solar array manufacturing and the results of the ground tests performed at panel level.
The achieved results are compared with the typical design of honeycomb based solar arrays for application on satellites
operated in intermediate orbits.

description: The scaling behavior of the order parameter at the chiral phase transition, the so-called magnetic equation of state, of strongly interacting matter is studied within effective models. We explore universal and nonuniversal structures near the critical point. These include the scaling functions, the leading corrections to scaling, and the corresponding size of the scaling window as well as their dependence on an external symmetry breaking field. We consider two models in the mean-field approximation, the quark-meson and the Polyakov loop extended quark-meson (PQM) models, and compare their critical properties with a purely bosonic theory, the $O(N)$ linear sigma model in the $N\rightarrow \infty$ limit. In these models the order parameter scaling function is found analytically using the high temperature expansion of the thermodynamic potential. The effects of a gluonic background on the nonuniversal scaling parameters are studied within the PQM model.

description: Thiophene-Phenylene-Thiophene(TPT) based low bandgap(LBG) conjugated polymers with tunable energy levels
have been investigated for solar cell applications. Via incorporating various electron-withdrawing co-monomers,
TPT-based donor-acceptor copolymers with a bandgap range from 1.8eV to 1eV have been obtained by Stille
coupling reactions. The absorption spectral, electrochemical, field effect hole mobility and photovoltaic properties of
LGB TPT derivatives are investigated and compared with those of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). The absorption
coefficients of thin films are in the range of 0.77 x 105 cm−1 to 1.4 x 105 cm−1. Both materials show sufficient hole
mobility (up to 8.1x10−3 cm2 V−1 s−1 for PTPTTQT) allowing efficient charge extraction and a good fill-factor for
organic photovoltaic application. Electrochemical studies indicate desirable HOMO/LUMO levels, and a good
correlation between HOMO energy levels and open circuit voltage (Voc) was observed while blending them with
fullerene derivatives as electron acceptors. Power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) up to 4.3% were achieved under
simulated solar light AM 1.5 G (100 mW/cm2). The results indicate that TPT derivatives with suitable electronwithdrawing
groups could be promising photovoltaic materials.

description: The bulk viscosity ($ζ$) of the hadronic medium has been estimated within the ambit of the Hadron Resonance Gas (HRG) model including the Hagedorn density of states. The HRG thermodynamics within a grand canonical ensemble provides the mean hadron number as well as its fluctuation. The fluctuation in the chemical composition of the hadronic medium in the grand canonical ensemble can result in non-zero divergence of the hadronic fluid flow velocity, allowing us to estimate the $ζ$ of the hadronic matter upto a relaxation time. We study the influence of the hadronic spectrum on $ζ$ and find its correlation with the conformal symmetry breaking (CSB) measure, $ε-3P$. We estimate $ζ$ along the contours with constant, $S/N_B$ (total entropy/net baryon number) in the $T-μ$ plane (temperature-baryonic chemical potential) for $S/N_B=30, 45$ and 300. We also assess the value of $ζ$ on the chemical freezeout curve for various centre of mass energy ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}$) and find that the bulk viscosity to entropy density ratio, $ζ/s$ is larger at FAIR than LHC energies.
