Who is in and who is not? Determining the Gaia survey selection function
Creators: name: Castro-Ginard, Alfred
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: What is the probability that an astronomical object of certain properties enters the Gaia catalogue (or not)? The GaiaUnlimited project aims to enable the full potential of Gaia by characterising its survey selection function, as well as for different subsamples of the data, which are key ingredients in most statistical studies of the Milky Way. By comparing Gaia with deeper imaging from the Dark Energy Camera Plane Survey (DECaPS), we have developed an empirical model of the completeness in the Gaia pipeline, as a function only of the observed G magnitude and position over the sky, which accounts for both the effects of crowding and the complex Gaia scanning law. We also demonstrate the recipe to estimate the selection function of the stars present in a subsample of Gaia data, given that the subsample is completely contained in the Gaia parent catalogue, and how it can be extended to include the selection functions of other surveys (e.g. WEAVE, GALAH). Finally, we demonstrate the use of these selection functions by showing that the asymmetry in the Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus debris is merely due to selection effects.

description: In this work, few cost effective solutions are proposed for improving solar cell aesthetic features in a more efficient way than it is usually done in industry. We demonstrated a method of color adding to the cell by deposition of ITO or TIO2/SiO2/TiO2 films on commercial monocrystalline Si cell and glass cover. Simple and cheap sol-gel technology combined with spray pyrolysis or dipping were used for the metal oxide films. Colors are intentionally tuned by the thicknesses of the layers to fit the design concept, e.g. for building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV).

description: With PERC technology approaching its efficiency limits, more companies and research institutes are interested in developing industrially feasible TOPCon and IBC cell architectures. Though the highest efficiency solar cells are realized on IBC cell structure, making them industrially viable is challenging. In this work, the process sequence for obtaining cost-effective IBC solar cells was studied. We investigate boron-doped emitter and phosphorusdoped FSF formation APCVD BSG and PSG layers, respectively. Lifetime samples with different dopant concentrations were exposed to different high-temperature co-annealing recipes. Also, the co-annealing was optimized to perform dual tasks: diffusion of dopants of both polarities and, at the same time, growing an in-situ SiO2 at the glass/Si interface for passivation purposes. To further optimize the APCVD IBC process sequence, a single wet-bench process after co-annealing was used to remove the dopant glasses using the in-situ grown SiO2 as the etch barrier. The passivation quality of lifetime test samples was lower than anticipated, and a systematic study pointed out that the source of low passivation quality is metal contamination.

description: Achieving precise purity control by analysis methods is a crucial step in the development of semiconductor devices because impurities greatly change the basic properties (mechanical, optical, electrical, thermal) of semiconductors. This paper presents and analyses the photovoltaic conversion performance of cell and modules from ingots grown by Czochralski (Cz) method using two poly-Si suppliers (Supplier1 and Supplier2) with different purity levels. Effects of raw material quality, ingot and wafer lifetime, cell efficiency, module power and light induced degradation (LID) mechanism are investigated. It has been observed that Supplier2 poly-Si has lower Cr impurity than for Supplier1 and also does not contain Ni impurities. Although it was expected that the impurities originating from Ni and Cr should decrease the yield, trial production showed that the effect of metallic impurities on productivity at these levels is insignificant.

description: Today, p-type solar cells such as monofacial and bifacial Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell (PERC) with phosphorus emitter dominate the photovoltaic industry. For emitter formation on p-type Si, ion implantation is an attractive doping method because it allows a simplified solar cell process flow. Here, we investigate the effect of phosphorus implant dose and activation temperature on the iVoc of the emitter of p-type textured Si solar wafers, which are passivated with 5 nm of thermal SiO2 capped with PECVD:SiNx. Our results show that the implanted emitter with a relatively lower dose is severely affected by activation temperature. We demonstrate iVoc of 648 mV for implanted emitter with optimum implant dose and activation temperature.
A newly discovered stellar type: dusty post-red giant branch stars in the Magellanic Clouds

description: Context: We present a newly discovered class of low-luminosity, dusty, evolved objects in the Magellanic Clouds. These objects have dust excesses, stellar parameters, and spectral energy distributions similar to those of dusty post-asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) stars. However, they have lower luminosities and hence lower masses. We suggest that they have evolved off the red giant branch (RGB) instead of the AGB as a result of binary interaction. Aims: In this study we aim to place these objects in an evolutionary context and establish an evolutionary connection between RGB binaries (such as the sequence E variables) and our new sample of objects. Methods: We compared the theoretically predicted birthrates of the progeny of RGB binaries to the observational birthrates of the new sample of objects. Results: We find that there is order-of-magnitude agreement between the observed and predicted birthrates of post-RGB stars. The sources of uncertainty in the birthrates are discussed; the most important sources are probably the observational incompleteness factor and the post-RGB evolution rates. We also note that mergers are relatively common low on the RGB and that stars low on the RGB with mid-IR excesses may recently have undergone a merger. Conclusions: Our sample of dusty post-RGB stars most likely provides the first observational evidence for a newly discovered phase in binary evolution: post-RGB binaries with circumstellar dust.

description: Objective (s): Considering the consequences of body image of pregnant women on their quality of life and regarding the fact that valid and reliable assessment of body image in Iranian pregnant women are required, the present study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Body Image in Pregnancy Scale (BIPS) in Iranian pregnant women.
 Methods: This was a cross-sectional study. A sample of 151 pregnant women who were in their third trimester of pregnancy and referred to three hospitals in Tehran, Iran for pregnancy care, were selected using convenience sampling. To collect data, the Body Image in Pregnancy Scale (BIPS), the Body Image Concern Inventory (BICI) and the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) were used. In this study, the construct validity of the scale was assessed using exploratory factor analysis. The internal consistency was assessed via Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Convergent validity assessment was examined by using the correlation between the Body Image in Pregnancy, the Body Image Concern Inventory and the Edinburg Postnatal Depression Scale.
 Results: Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the subscales ranged from 0.60 to 0.86. Exploratory factor analysis indicated good fit for scale with seven factors. The BIPS subscale scores demonstrated good convergent validity with measures of body image and depressive symptoms.
 Conclusion: The Body Image in Pregnancy Scale has acceptable psychometric properties in Iranian women and could assess the body image during pregnancy.

Radial Wave in the Galactic Disk: New Clues to discriminate different Perturbations
Creators: name: Cao, Chengye
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023
Subjects: Milky Way Dynamics

description: Decoding the key dynamical processes that shape the Galactic disk structure is crucial for reconstructing the Milky Way's evolution history. The second Gaia data release uncovers a new wave pattern in the \(L_Z-\langle V_R \rangle\) space accompanied by a richness of phase space substructures, signifying the Galactic disk in dynamical disequilibrium. However, its formation mechanism remains elusive due to the complexity of involved perturbations and the challenges in disentangling their effects. Utilizing the latest Gaia DR3 data, we find that the wave systematically shifts towards lower \(L_Z\) for dynamically hotter stars. The amplitude of this phase shift between stars of different dynamical hotness increases with decreasing \(L_Z\) within the range of \(L_Z > 2000 \thinspace \mathrm{km \thinspace s^{-1}\thinspace kpc}\) but stays approximately constant at a small value in the lower \(L_Z\) part of the wave. To investigate the role of different perturbations separately, we set up three test particle simulations in which a satellite galaxy, spiral, and bar act as the sole perturber by turn. The former trend is consistent with the waves induced by satellite impact, which we interpret in the context of a toy model of radial phase mixing. While corotating transient spiral arms do not produce a systematic phase shift pattern, a steadily rotating bar could generate a wave with phase alignment at higher \(L_Z\) extrema and phase shift at lower \(L_Z\) extrema at the locations of Lindblad resonances. Our results suggest that the formation of \(L_Z-\langle V_R \rangle\) wave may arise from a complex interplay between internal and external perturbations. Moreover, the dependence of disk response on dynamical hotness could provide insights for discriminating between perturbations of different types.

description: In this work, we demonstrated that the p-type bifacial PERC solar cells can also be improved front side performance based on rear side SiOxNy passivation structure. In the rear side passivation experiment, It was used the previous best conditions as the basic conditions to change the thickness. The original thickness was the reference, and the thickness was increased by 1.2 times and 1.4 times. From the experimental results, a significant average efficiency gain for front side efficency with 1.4 time thickness passivation layer was achieved. Finally, by optimizing the rear structure, the bifacial PERC solar cells achieved the best performance with average front side efficiency of 22.57% and the bifaciality of bifacial PERC solar cells was about 50%.

description: Only a few well characterized very low-mass M dwarfs are known today. Our understanding of M dwarfs is vital as these are the most common stars in our solar neighborhood. We aim to characterize the properties of a rare F+dM stellar system for a better understanding of the low-mass end of the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram. We used photometric light curves and radial velocity follow-up measurements to study the binary. Spectro- scopic analysis was used in combination with isochrone fitting to characterize the primary star. The primary star is an early F-type main-sequence star with a mass of (1.493 +- 0.073) Msun and a radius of (1.474 +- 0.040) Rsun. The companion is an M dwarf with a mass of (0.188 +- 0.014) Msun and a radius of (0.234 +- 0.009) Rsun. The orbital period is (1.35121 +- 0:00001)d. The secondary star is among the lowest-mass M dwarfs known to date. The binary has not reached a 1:1 spin-orbit synchronization. This indicates a young main-sequence binary with an age below ~250 Myrs. The mass-radius relation of both components are in agreement with this finding.

description: We present hitherto unpublished handwritten notes made by Gertrud Bing after the Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg relocated to London, possibly in the mid-1930s. The notes, which were written in two notebooks now housed at the Warburg Institute Archive, provide a synopsis of each Panel of the Mnemosyne Atlas. They include indications for the completion, editing, and publication of the Atlas. In her Introduction, Giulia Zanon attempts to contextualise this invaluable testimony through the study of letters and documents, dating from the final months of 1929, which were for both Warburg and Bing the most intense and productive period of work on the Atlas. She also considers the period following Warburg's death and the subsequent abrupt interruption of the Atlas project. The aim of this contribution is to emphasise the considerable significance of this document both for the hermeneutics of Mnemosyne and its publishing history. It constitutes evidence of the unwavering commitment to publish the Bilderatlas as part of a larger project to publish Warburg’s corpus.
Angular momentum of the Classical Cepheids and the spiral structure of the Milky Way
Creators: name: Semczuk, Marcin
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The classical Cepheids are variable stars with relatively young ages (<300 Myr). Their tight period-luminosity relation provides highly accurate distance estimates. By combining recent measurements of proper motions from Gaia EDR3, radial velocities from Gaia DR3, and Cepheid distances, it is possible to study the details of the phase space distribution of this population. In my talk, I will discuss how the recently discovered gap in the angular momentum of Cepheids can be attributed to the spatial separation of adjacent spiral arms in the Milky Way.
Upper Limit on Star Formation and Metal Enrichment in Minihalos

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An analysis of negative radiative feedback from resident stars in minihalos is performed. It is found that the most effective mechanism to suppress star formation is provided by infrared photons from resident stars via photo-detachment of ${\rm H^-}$. It is shown that a stringent upper bound on (total stellar mass, metallicity) of ($\sim 1000{\rm M_\odot}$, $-3.3\pm 0.2$) in any newly minted atomic cooling halo can be placed, with the actual values possibly significantly lower. This has both important physical ramifications on formation of stars and supermassive black seeds in atomic cooling halos at high redshift, pertaining to processes of low temperature metal cooling, dust formation and fragmentation, and direct consequences on the faint end galaxy luminosity function at high redshift and cosmological reionization. The luminosity function of galaxies at the epoch of reionization may be substantially affected due to the combined effect of a diminished role of minihalos and an enhanced contribution from Pop III stars in atomic cooling halos. Upcoming results on reionization optical depth from Planck High-Frequency Instrument data may provide a significant constraint on and a unique probe of this star formation physical process in minihalos. As a numerical example, in the absence of significant contributions from minihalos with virial masses below $1.5\times 10^{8}{\rm M_\odot}$ the reionization optical depth is expected to be no greater than $0.065$, whereas allowing for minihalos of masses as low as ($10^7{\rm M_\odot}$, $10^{6.5}{\rm M_\odot}$) to form stars unconstrained by this self-regulation physical process, the reionization optical depth is expected to exceed $(0.075,0.085)$, respectively.

“To Cross into a War Should be Difficult”
Creators: name: Arminio, Angelo
Publisher: name: Iperstoria
Year: 2022

description: Set a few years after the start of the Syrian civil war, Elliot Ackerman’s novel Dark at the Crossing (2017) offers a close look at the life along the border between Turkey and Syria while following the protagonist’s quest for purpose and his paradoxical attempt at crossing into war-torn Syria. This essay argues that the novel constructs the borderland as a space of violence influenced by economic and political interests that separate people both physically and spiritually, while global capitalism builds a sanitized environment to the benefit of diplomats and aid workers, as the shopping malls and luxury hotels of Gaziantep stand in stark contrast with the explosions a few miles away in Azaz. I use Homi Bhabha’s concept of hybridity to situate the protagonist Haris Abadi, a former Iraqi interpreter who acquired American citizenship, as well as many of the characters living in the borderland as transcultural characters influenced by European and American imperialism who struggle to find their place in the world, all unfortunate victims of an imagined line—or, in Gloria Anzaldúa’s words, “unnatural boundary”—drawn by Western powers a century earlier. Through their hybrid nature they pose an inherent challenge to traditional notions of citizenship and belonging and expose the imperialist practices at work in and around the Syrian civil war. While most American border writing is understandably concerned with the southern border with Mexico or the concept of the frontier, I argue that Dark at the Crossing offers a unique perspective on the ramifications of war, globalization, and American imperialism in the Middle East.

description: We explored how the knowledge translation and innovation processes are structured when they result in innovations, as in the case of liposomal doxorubicin research. In order to map the processes, a literature network analysis was made through Cytoscape and semantic analysis was performed by GOPubmed which is based in the controlled vocabularies MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) and GO (Gene Ontology). We found clusters related to different stages of the technological development (invention, innovation and imitation) and the knowledge translation process (preclinical, translational and clinical research), and we were able to map the historic emergence of Doxil as a paradigmatic nanodrug. This research could be a powerful methodological tool for decision-making and innovation management in drug delivery research.

description: In this study, we analyze the passivation quality of the Al2O3/SiNx stack layer on various surface morphologies for the rear side of PERC solar cells. For this purpose, four types of samples that have different surface morphologies were produced symmetrically. Surface characterization of the samples is conducted by using SEM and AFM. The impact of surface morphology on passivation quality is evaluated by implied open-circuit voltage (iVoc) and minority effective carrier lifetime (Eff) values measured by Sinton WCT – 120 device. Our analysis reveals that the smoother surface improves passivation or (that passivation is enhanced when surface roughness decreases) unless the surface is polished. The highest iVoc and Eff values are obtained for the surface with root mean square roughness (Rq) value of 280 nm as 700.6 mV and 156.47 µs, respectively.

description: Part of a collection of correspondence between Sir Herbert Read and Alfred Richard Orage. Orage is most well-known for editing the magazine “The New Age”. These letters, spanning 1921 and 1922, primarily discuss Read’s work as a Readers and Writers columnist for the magazine in that time. In these letters Orage also frequently mentions P. D. Ouspensky, who studied under philosopher G. I. Gurdjieff. In 1922 Orage sold “The New Age” and moved to Paris in order to also study under Gurdjieff. In this postcard, Orage says he likes the Readers and Writers article on Whitman and Iqbal, and discusses Whitman's "manly love'.

description: This work compares the electrical performances of fully ion-implanted bifacial PERT solar cells made of n-type wafers from Kalyon PV and Longi Solar. The cell performances are presented with comparative emitter and BSF characterization results. The highest front photo-conversion efficiencies are measured as 19.3% and 19.2% with bifaciality factors (rear/front) of 86.8% and 85.1% for the solar cells made of Longi and Kalyon wafers, respectively. The Voc values of the solar cells and iVoc values of the symmetrical emitter and BSF samples fabricated on n-Si wafers from the two companies are almost equal, implying similar wafer qualities from the device point of view.
Assessment of Critical Factors of Inbound Logistics Performance (The Case of Un-Wfp White Maize Procurement Under Purchase for Progress-P4p)

description: The United Nation World Food Program (UN-WFP) implements P4P (Purchase for Progress) program in Ethiopia since 2010. The program mainly procures White Maize from different Farmers Cooperative Unions (FCUs). But, the total average Maize price of those smallholder farmers found a 2% to 11% higher than the price of a MT of Maize from traders. As a result, the WFP divert much of its purchase to traders even if its corporate strategy aimed to save 10% from total purchase value through buying 10% of the quantity from those Smallholders farmers' organizations. So the research aimed to identify the critical inbound logistical factors that can play a significant role for the success of 10% saving by procuring commodity from Smallholder farmer organization at lower price that traders. The researcher used quantitative approach by designing the study in both descriptive and explanatory methods in order to measure the relation of logistics activities with performance of inbound logistic. In order to test the variables, both primary and secondary data were collected. Primary data collected using a survey methods and applying questionnaire as a tool. Responses of 34 were analyzed using Bivariate Ranked correlation test Kendall's tau-b method. On the other hand, the secondary data analyzed using percentage to reveal the practice of Forward Delivery Contract execution. Accordingly, the findings indicated that customer response management activity of logistics play a major role and FCUs are suffered due to lack of clear organizational structure that encourage management to apply their capacity to develop ideas and giving prompt decision to increase competitiveness of the Union with regards to Maize supply to WFP. Also, the commodity has bundle cost that did not add value to the product but affect the competitiveness adversely. Then, a recommendation on the necessity to study FCUs current organizational structure and adopt the change to bring effectiveness was given. Also, the need to revise cost components of Maize recommended together with provision of continuous capacity training for FCUs management particularly on developing strategy & setting performance evaluation model that take in to consideration financial and non-financial part of the business.

description: We present here recent results of an optimized metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) based process. The process consists of a simple maskless etching based on the use of a solution of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), hydrofluoric acid (HF), and silver nitrate (AgNO3). H2O2 and HF work as etching agents, while AgNO3 donates silver ions that locally catalyze the etching reaction, creating steep and anisotropic structures on the surface and sharply reducing its reflectivity. In this study Czochralski monocrystalline silicon wafers both p-type and n-type were used as substrates and the etching time was swept between 30 s and 270 s. It was observed that, although for optimal conditions p-type and n-type wafers achieved similar reflectance values after etching, the reaction’s dynamic showed to be dependent on the doping type and concentration level (resistivity). The lowest effective reflectivity (Reff) reached during this study was 3.0%, obtained for a p-type wafer.

description: We use the Besançon Galaxy Model Fast Approximate Simulations (BGM FASt) framework together with the Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) algorithm to derive the posterior probability distribution function of the parameters defining the initial mass function (IMF) and the star formation history (SFH) in the solar neighbourhood. We propose new strategies to unveil the influence of some BGM model ingredients from the Poissonian distance metric and the posterior distribution of the ratio between pseudo-simulation and data in the Hess diagrams. Gaia DR3 up to G=13 and a set of consolidated executions of the BGM Fast + ABC code on a Cloud Environment, using both different mother simulations and priors, allow us to confirm the existence of the star formation burst in the Galactic disk 2-4 years ago proposed by Mor et al., 2019. Furthermore, for the composite IMF, we obtain the slopes of \(\alpha_2\) and \(\alpha_3\) constrained to the range [1.7, 2.8] and [1.8, 2.4] respectively, in agreement with recent values from the literature. The wide range of values obtained for the total stellar surface mass density of the thin disk at the solar neighbourhood, between 30-50 \(M_\odot\)/\(pc^2\) demonstrates that, before to conclude on the set of best ingredients for the Galactic stellar population model, we shall loop the process to fit again the Galactic potential (Robin et al. 2022) using the BGM Fast inferred parameters.

description: We give two conditionally exactly solvable inverse power law potentials whose linearly independent solutions include a sum of two confluent hypergeometric functions. We notice that they are partner potentials and multiplicative shape invariant. The method used to find the solutions works with the two Schrodinger equations of the partner potentials. Furthermore we study some of the properties of these potentials.

description: Migration und Diversität gelten in den westeuropäischen Gesellschaften des späten 20. und frühen 21. Jahrhunderts noch immer vornehmlich als Problem und zumal als ‚Integrationsproblem‘. Der Warnung vor der Herausbildung sogenannter Ghettos (‚Migrantenviertel‘, ‚Viertel mit hohem Ausländeranteil‘) kam und kommt in diesem Zusammenhang eine zentrale Rolle zu. Bis heute verbinden Stadtpolitiker:innen mit dem dichten Zusammenwohnen von migrantischen oder migrantisierten Gruppen die Gefahr von Desintegration und sozialen Spannungen. Ausgehend vom Aufstieg und umstrittenen Gebrauch der Begriffe ‚Ghetto‘, ‚Ghettoisierung‘ und ‚Segregation‘ diskutiert der folgende Beitrag, wie es dazu kam, dass der Anteil von Migrant:innen an der Wohnbevölkerung in Stadtpolitik, Forschung und Medien als Problem oder Skandal gehandelt wurde – und mit welchen politischen Folgen. Zum einen, um die Konflikte zu beleuchten, die sich an Migration als urbaner Tatsache entzünden. Zum anderen, um zu diskutieren, wie in Deutschland immer wieder scheinbar nicht und zugleich doch über rassifizierte Differenz gesprochen wird.

description: In the past few years, potential induced degradation (PID) has received considerable attention due to its catastrophic impact on the reliability of PV modules. The transportation of sodium ions triggered by a system voltage across PV modules was suspect to be the root causes and was further supported by findings of sodium ions on PIDaffected regions in silicon solar cells. Here we use consistent lower volume resistivity packaging materials to test high-efficiency cells fabricated by different manufacturers. Under 192 hour test, Some samples have slightly obvious defects.
First detection in gamma-rays of a young radio galaxy: Fermi-LAT observations of the Compact Symmetric Object PKS 1718-649

description: We report the $γ$-ray detection of a young radio galaxy, PKS 1718$-$649, belonging to the class of Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs), with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the {\it Fermi} satellite. The third {\it Fermi} Gamma-ray LAT catalog (3FGL) includes an unassociated $γ$-ray source, 3FGL J1728.0$-$6446, located close to PKS 1718$-$649. Using the latest Pass 8 calibration, we confirm that the best fit $1 σ$ position of the $γ$-ray source is compatible with the radio location of PKS 1718$-$649. Cross-matching of the $γ$-ray source position with the positions of blazar sources from several catalogs yields negative results. Thus, we conclude that PKS 1718$-$649 is the most likely counterpart to the unassociated LAT source. We obtain a detection test statistics TS$\sim 36$ ($>$5$σ$) with a best fit photon spectral index $Γ=$2.9$\pm$0.3 and a 0.1-100 GeV photon flux density $F_{\rm 0.1-100GeV}=$(11.5$\pm$0.3)$\times{\rm 10^{-9}}$ ph cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$. We argue that the linear size ($\sim$2 pc), the kinematic age ($\sim$100 years), and the source distance ($z=0.014$) make PKS 1718$-$649 an ideal candidate for $γ$-ray detection in the framework of the model proposing that the most compact and the youngest CSOs can efficiently produce GeV radiation via inverse-Compton scattering of the ambient photon fields by the radio lobe non-thermal electrons. Thus, our detection of the source in $γ$-rays establishes young radio galaxies as a distinct class of extragalactic high-energy emitters, and yields an unique insight on the physical conditions in compact radio lobes interacting with the interstellar medium of the host galaxy.
