description: The photovoltaic technology is evolving rapidly with new concepts and ideas for systematically improve efficiency
and reliability. Roth & Rau AG provide tools and processes for mass production of hetero junction technology (HJT) based solar
cells. New low temperature interconnection techniques are needed for this cell concept. The aim of this work is to evaluate the
characteristics of interconnection joints on polymer pastes and sputtered NiV, making a comparison between different techniques that
exist nowadays in the market. The interconnection technologies under investigation have been soldering and conductive adhesives.
Electrical characterizations, adhesive strength tests and temperature cycling have been used to quantify the characteristics of the
produced interconnection joints. It will be shown that a long term stable low temperature interconnection is possible with industrial
methods.

description: The ‘Aesthetic Energy Roof’ (AER) concept is an aesthetically pleasing building integrated
photovoltaic (BIPV) roof concept based on the patent-pending idea to use the photovoltaic glass itself for the
watertight connection between the PV panels. In this paper we will investigate the thermal properties of the AER
concept. We followed an approach of analytic modeling and outdoor measurements, the latter for which roof sections
of 7 m2 each were constructed and a direct comparison between ‘on-roof’- and ‘in-roof’-mounting was made. From
the model we have quantified the heat flows and effective heat conductance values to the front, rear and ventilation
shaft. From the measurements a clear correlation between the effective heat conductance and PV performance ratio
was found. Moreover, we quantified the difference in ‘on-roof’ and ‘in-roof’-mounting: ‘in-roof’ mounting results in
a 2% loss in performance ratio and a 2 W/m2K lower U-value. Finally, we identified key improvement factors to
further improve the building integrated PV panel cooling.

description: PV integration in the contemporary building envelope, can be considered one of the most relevant field of
technological and architectural innovation. Noted an insufficient spread of "PV integration" concept in the real
constructions, one of the reasons could be the absence of simple and applicable “quality control” tools, similarly to the
experience of energy and environmental certification, as also stated by different international interview and projects. The
presented study, through the use of a scoring method called Bipv.tool, reports the outcomes of some test on real BiPV
case-studies, some of which have been studied within Task 41 IEA. The method is based on a weighted evaluation of
different classes of integrability (constructive, performance, energetic, plant, of architectural characterization...), allowing
an overall assessment on several qualitative, quantitative and multi-scalar aspects of BiPV. The analysis of obtained
results shows some specific potential scenarios for a transfer in the BiPV field, including the deployment in the real
building sector as a guide-tool for the “Nearly ZEB” design, for a more proper regulation of systems for granting
incentives, and other real applications.

description: Rooftop building integrated photovoltaic (RtBiPV) system is an active component of the built-in
environment which can be installed over the rooftop of the buildings. This active component saves the rooftop area
from the detrimental effect of the ambience. Moreover, this acts as the on-site generator of electricity under the
exposition to solar radiation and also offers the mechanisms in conserving electricity in that built-in area.
Implementation of this system reduces the day time peak load demand, reduces the heating and cooling load of the
building, increases the lifetime of the rooftop surface by reducing its exposition in the open sun and ultimately
reduces the loads of green house gas emission to the environment. Thus, in totality the RtBiPV unit offers total
management in the built-in environment. In this context a discussion has been presented in the text of this paper
highlighting the potential of the RtBiPV systems in the context of total management.

description: A quantum dot superlattice (QDSL) has great potential for next-generation photovoltaics. We realistically fabricated
and characterized a 3-dimensional array of silicon nano disks (3D Si-NDs) as a QDSL that was defect-free, high density, and
uniform in size by using our advanced top-down technology consisting of bio-template and neutral beam etching processes for
high-efficiency solar cells. Conductive atomic force microscopy measurements revealed that the conductivity became
significantly higher as the stack layer of the Si-NDs was increased from single to 4-layer Si-NDs arrays, i.e., the coupling of the
wave functions became stronger. We also measured the contribution of the QDSL in producing a photocurrent inside a solar cell
and observed a higher photo-absorption of sunlight by the 3D Si-NDs (more than 30%) than by a 2D array of Si-NDs (10%).

description: The industry type PERC cells with favorable rear side morphology by alkaline etching have been
investigated in this study. Damage etching (~4 um) on back side surface leads to increased short circuit current (Jsc)
due to better optical absorption caused by thicker wafer thickness as compare to shiny etching (~14 um) with respect
to specific AlOx/SiNx passivation stacks deposition onto mono-type Cz wafers. In this work, it’s revealed that rearside
polish after texturing led to >1.5% absolute higher efficiency as comparing with PERC without polish.
Poetry and Natural History in the Network of Joseph Johnson
Creators: name: Stamm, Craig
Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2023
Subjects: Literary Studies not elsewhere classified

description: As perhaps the most influential English bookseller and publisher of the late eighteenth century, Joseph Johnson has been studied intensively for his circle of London radical intellectuals from William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft to Thomas Paine and others. This dissertation reconceives that familiar picture of Johnson by uncovering his wider authorial and intellectual network that extended across England. He worked with many genres-- poetry, natural history and medicine, chemistry, philosophies of history, and visual arts—and an impressively diverse range of authors, from Joseph Priestley, Thomas Percival, and Erasmus Darwin in northern England to Charlotte Smith, Henry Fuseli, and William Blake in the metropolis. This project focuses most fully on the poets Smith, Darwin, and Blake to show how differently each of them forged either a direct or indirect relationship with Johnson, which in turn had an important impact on their literary practices and professional development. With Johnson’s guiding hand, Darwin produced poetry of natural history and industrial development in The Botanic Garden (1791), a controversial account of materialist, evolutionary agency in Zoonomia (1794-6), and an epic account of how natural history and human history formed a single complex narrative in The Temple of Nature, or the Origin of Human Society (1803). Arriving late in Charlotte Smith’s poetic career, Johnson helped her meld new sciences like geology into poetry in works like Conversations Introducing Poetry and in what is now regarded as her greatest poem, Beachy Head (1807), where she confronts the incommensurate timescales of human and geological history in ways that indicate the end of a sympathetic aesthetic tradition. Most indirect were Blake’s relations to Johnson and his intellectual milieu by way of Blake’s work as illustrator and engraver, from the early Poetic Sketches (1783) to the massive epic The Four Zoas (1803). As publisher to Darwin and Smith and employer to Blake, Johnson brought these poets into a conversation that was usually not visible but rather mediated through Johnson’s complex professional network. At the same time, this project demonstrates the importance of understanding social authorship in regard to texts which have otherwise seemed removed or distanced from better-known literary circles and schools.

description: We statistically study the physical properties of a sample of narrow absorption line (NAL) systems looking for empirical evidences to distinguish between intrinsic and intervening NALs without taking into account any a priori definition or velocity cut-off. We analyze the spectra of 100 quasars with 3.5 < z$\rm_{em}$ < 4.5, observed with X-shooter/VLT in the context of the XQ-100 Legacy Survey. We detect a $\sim$ 8 $σ$ excess in the number density of absorbers within 10,000 km/s of the quasar emission redshift with respect to the random occurrence of NALs. This excess does not show a dependence on the quasar bolometric luminosity and it is not due to the redshift evolution of NALs. It extends far beyond the standard 5000 km/s cut-off traditionally defined for associated absorption lines. We propose to modify this definition, extending the threshold to 10,000 km/s when also weak absorbers (equivalent width < 0.2 Å) are considered. We infer NV is the ion that better traces the effects of the quasar ionization field, offering the best statistical tool to identify intrinsic systems. Following this criterion we estimate that the fraction of quasars in our sample hosting an intrinsic NAL system is 33 percent. Lastly, we compare the properties of the material along the quasar line of sight, derived from our sample, with results based on close quasar pairs investigating the transverse direction. We find a deficiency of cool gas (traced by CII) along the line of sight associated with the quasar host galaxy, in contrast with what is observed in the transverse direction.

The Effect of Gender Differences and Cognitive Empathy on the Encouragement of Social Competence for the Next Generation: Evidence from Chinese Parents
Creators: name: Huang, Yi

Publisher: name: Journal of Clinical & Developmental Psychology
Year: 2020

description: Background: In the western cultural context, parents emphasize female children’s social-behavioral development more heavily. Likewise, mothers are more supportive of children's social development compared to fathers. However, whether the same behavior can be observed in eastern culture remains unclear. Besides the unchangeable factors (e.g., gender), it is also worth investigating whether the parents' improvable factors influence the emphasis on a child's socialization. Objects: This study aimed to investigate the effects of a child’s gender, parent’s gender, and parent’s cognitive empathy on parental encouragement of a child’s social competence in Chinese culture. Conclusions: Contrary to the western findings, this research suggested that in China, parents emphasize more social competence of the male child. Analogically, compared to mother, father underscores a child’s social competence more heavily. Additionally, a parent’s cognitive empathy explained the variance in parents’ encouragement of a child’s social competence even after controlling for the gender variables of parents and children.

The most interesting conclusion is a kind of Mukai duality in which the "dual abelian variety" to a smooth projective genus-1 curve over R with no real points is (mildly) noncommutative.

description: Is it true that rural areas, like urban areas, experience temperature changes over time? The aim of this mission was to find the season-wise trend associated with land surface thermal alteration based on satellite imagery from the last 30 years using the least square regression method, as well as to determine the stimulus of LST for the years 2027 and 2037 using Artificial Neural Network and Support Vector Machine techniques. The average temperature in the winter, summer, and Monsoon months has risen by 0.11 °C/year, 0.19 °C/year, and 0.07 °C/year, respectively, according to the analysis. Additionally, the simulated models reveal which extreme finish temperature group (>37.13 °C) may include more areas than the current one. For example, in 2017, a total area of 28.95 km2 was above the 37.13 °C temperature class, but this could increase to 37.91 km2 in 2027 and 42.67 km2 in 2037. Fragmentation analysis of the extreme temperature patches shows that the location of the high-temperature core steadily increases over time. The simulated water body, vegetation, built-up land, and bare land cover area show a decreasing trend in the first two parameters and an increasing trend in the last two, all of which influence temperature increase incident.

description: The level of cross-linking of the ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) encapsulant is a critical benchmark for
the long-term stability and performance of a solar module. However to date, process control and quality assurance
relay on destructive, lab-based tests for monitoring lamination quality.
In this paper we present a method that facilitates fast, automated and non-destructive determination of the level of
EVA cross-linking. The method exploits the relation between the level of cross-linking and the mechanical properties
of EVA. Superior metrology properties of the new technique are revealed by a comparison with the conventional gelcontent
test. The application within an industrial solar module production line is demonstrated. Moreover, the method
is applied to laterally mapping the degree of EVA cross-linking across commercially acquired solar modules. The
results reveal serious inhomogeneities that presumably result from the temperature distribution within the laminator
as well as warpage of the modules during lamination.

description: New solar energy systems with fixed concentrators and photovoltaics have been designed to adapt
building integration. These new systems aim to performance improvement, practical operation and aesthetic integration
and are associated with PV or hybrid PV/T absorbers combined with static reflectors or Fresnel lenses demanding less
tracking requirements. The simplest design mode of these systems is the plain PV module with flat reflector, a second
design is the static parabolic or CPC reflector and a third one the Fresnel lens, both with tracking PV strips working as
primary absorbers for the converged solar radiation. In these systems, an additional absorber can receive the diffuse
radiation as well as the direct sunlight, that is not captured by the main absorber, so that the system to absorb almost all
incident solar radiation. For the concentrators, specular and diffuse reflectors can be applied in mirror type systems and
linear Fresnel lenses in lens type systems. Fresnel lenses can be also used for solar control of building atria. These
devices can be installed on horizontal or inclined building roof, under balconies, or on some other façade parts. In this
paper, the design and application aspects of the suggested systems with the new concentrator - absorber configurations
are presented and discussed.

description: We consider the dissipative single-qubit circuit QED architecture in which the atomic transition frequency undergoes a weak external time-modulation. For sinusoidal modulation with linearly varying frequency we derive effective Hamiltonians that resemble the Landau-Zener problem of finite duration associated to a two- or multi-level systems. The corresponding off-diagonal coupling coefficients originate either from the rotating or the counter-rotating terms in the Rabi Hamiltonian, depending on the values of the modulation frequency. It is demonstrated that in the dissipation less case one can accomplish almost complete transitions between the eigenstates of the bare Rabi Hamiltonian even for relatively short duration of the frequency sweep. To assess the experimental feasibility of our scheme we solved numerically the phenomenological and the microscopic quantum master equations in the Markovian regime at zero temperature. Both models exhibit qualitatively similar behavior and indicate that photon generation from vacuum via effective Landau-Zener transitions could be implemented with the current technology on the timescales of a few microseconds. Moreover, unlike the harmonic dynamical Casimir effect implementations, our proposal does not require the precise knowledge of the resonant modulation frequency to accomplish meaningful photon generation.

description: Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) are low cost photovoltaic devices, which reduce the amount of
necessary semiconductor material per unit area of a photovoltaic solar energy converter by means of concentration. The
device is comprised of a thin plastic plate in which luminescent species (fluorophores) have been incorporated. The
fluorophores absorb the solar light and radiatively re-emit a part of the energy. Total internal reflection traps most of the
emitted light inside the plate and wave-guides it to a narrow side facet with a solar cell attached, where conversion into
electricity occurs. The efficiency of such devices is as yet rather low, due to several loss mechanisms, of which selfabsorption
is of high importance. Combined ray-tracing and Monte-Carlo simulations is a widely used tool for efficiency
estimations of LSC-devices prior to manufacturing. We have applied this method to a model experiment, in which we
analysed the impact of self-absorption onto LSC-efficiency of fluorophores with different absorption/emission-spectral
overlap (Stokes' shift): several organic dyes and semiconductor quantum dots (single compound and core/shell of type-
II). We have also validated the model with the experimental results and used the model to study the dependence of the
light output of the LSC in dependence on spectral separation between absorption and emission. The results show that
increased spectral separation reduces self-absorption losses.

description: Democracy is a system of government in which the greatest power is exercised by the people. However, when you think about exercising power directly, it is very difficult for everyone to be able to make decisions equally. So, in a democracy, several subsystems have developed that are helpful in enabling citizens to participate better and more widely in the exercise of power. At the local level, this seems to be extremely important because, thanks to decentralization processes, decisions are taken as close to the citizen as possible. Participation can be the answer to the problems of democracy at the local level.[^1] Young people should be a group of special interest, as the future of democracy lies in their hands. Participation directly contributes to increasing trust and understanding, serving to solve problems and conflicts. In 2021, [Greta Klotz blogged about the need to support youth participation](https://www.eurac.edu/en/blogs/eureka/youth-participation-at-the-local-level). I would like to point to some examples of good practice from Poland and North Macedonia that support youth policy and contribute to the empowerment of young citizens.

description: We compute next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections to the production of two massive electroweak bosons in gluon fusion. We consider both the prompt production process $gg \to VV$ and the production mediated by an exchange of an s-channel Higgs boson, $gg \to H^* \to V V$. We include final states with both on- and off-shell vector bosons with leptonic decays. The gluonic production of vector bosons is a loop-induced process, including both massless and massive quarks in the loop. For $gg \to ZZ$ production, we obtain the NLO QCD corrections to the massive loops through an expansion around the heavy top limit. This approximation is valid below the top production threshold, giving a broad range of invariant masses between the Higgs production and the top production thresholds in which our results are valid. We explore the NLO QCD effects in $gg \to ZZ$ focusing, in particular, on the interference between prompt and Higgs-mediated processes. We find that the QCD corrections to the interference are large and similar in size to the corrections to both the signal and the background processes. At the same time, we observe that corrections to the interference change rapidly with the four-lepton invariant mass in the region around the ZZ production threshold. We also study the interference effects in $gg \to WW$ production where, due to technical limitations, we only consider contributions of massless loops. We find that the QCD corrections to the interference in this case are somewhat larger than those for either the signal or the background.

description: The Schmid Multi Busbar technology is based on an innovative cell structure which completely avoids the wellknown
wide silver busbars. In this work, we studied the contact formation and the soldering process for this new cell
metallization design. By micro-mechanical pull tests, we evaluated different technological approaches, i.e. varying
Cu wire diameter or cell metallization. Microscopic images and SEM analysis were conducted to analyze the contact
formation and fracture modes after pull tests. Cross sections were prepared to resolve in detail the intermetallic
compound formation in the solder joints. We compared the new contact structures with the well-known 3 busbar cell
technology and discussed the advantages and still upcoming challenges for the soldering process and the material
interactions

description: We completely changed the molecular design for anti-reflection (AR) coating materials, using
hybrid of inorganic and organic components to attain environmentally tough properties. Low temperaturesetting
AR coating materials (curable at 150°C) having newly hybrid compositions are developed. The single
coated layers on glass substrates and on c-Si PV modules, show >3% of enhancement of the light-trapping
performance (LTP) and to improve >3% of the power generation efficiency, respectively. Our materials are
nonporous and are hard to cause NaHCO3 formation to give damage to the initial LTP. We also have found
that the present materials prevent potential induces degradation (PID), and proposed a newly chemical
mechanism for key species to initiate the PID. The AR layer contains hydrophilic and hydrophobic sites
ideally, and the rain drops even including dirts can be repelled very easily. The other specs for the texture
necessary to the AR layer are also satisfied.

description: The recurrent symbiotic nova V745 Sco exploded on 2014 February 6 and was observed on February 22 and 23 by the Chandra X-ray Observatory Transmission Grating Spectrometers. By that time the supersoft source phase had already ended and Chandra spectra are consistent with emission from a hot, shock-heated circumstellar medium with temperatures exceeding 10^7K. X-ray line profiles are more sharply peaked than expected for a spherically-symmetric blast wave, with a full width at zero intensity of approximately 2400 km/s, a full width at half maximum of 1200 +/- 30 km/s and an average net blueshift of 165 +/- 10 km/s. The red wings of lines are increasingly absorbed toward longer wavelengths by material within the remnant. We conclude that the blast wave was sculpted by an aspherical circumstellar medium in which an equatorial density enhancement plays a role, as in earlier symbiotic nova explosions. Expansion of the dominant X-ray emitting material is aligned close to the plane of the sky and most consistent with an orbit seen close to face-on. Comparison of an analytical blast wave model with the X-ray spectra, Swift observations and near-infrared line widths indicates the explosion energy was approximately 10^43 erg, and confirms an ejected mass of approximately 10^-7 Msun. The total mass lost is an order of magnitude lower than the accreted mass required to have initiated the explosion, indicating the white dwarf is gaining mass and is a supernova Type 1a progenitor candidate.

PV as Building Material Component

description: 28th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 4357-4360
description: When installing Photovoltaic on Building, the mounting system significantly affects the heat-exchange
between the module and the building envelope and the operating temperatures of the PV modules that strongly
influence the energy yield of the PV system. For this reason it is important to be able to simulate and evaluate in
advance the behavior and the possible advantages of a certain type of installation.
This study aims to quantify the gains or losses in performance which are obtained by different levels or types of
integration. Two outdoor measurement test stands were used to reproduce a realistic BIPV module integration: one of
them without any ventilation in roof-top position (6° from the horizontal) and the other one in vertical façade
position, ventilated and not. Some free-standing (ventilated) modules with 45° and 6° inclination are used for intercomparison.
The module packages consisted in different insulating materials and air cavities with always the same
micromorph module technology at the top. Amorphous silicon (a-Si) based modules have the special characteristic to
be able to temporarily recover part of the so called initial Staebler–Wronski degradation through thermal annealing.
The study demonstrated that for a moderate climate as Lugano the gain in performance due to thermal annealing at
higher operating temperatures compensates most of the losses, given by the negative Pmax temperature coefficient.
The energy output of the integrated modules is almost the same as for the ventilated modules.

description: We report the detection of a double planetary system around the evolved intermediate-mass star HD 47366 from precise radial-velocity measurements at Okayama Astrophysical Observatory, Xinglong Station, and Australian Astronomical Observatory. The star is a K1 giant with a mass of 1.81+-0.13M_sun, a radius of 7.30+-0.33R_sun, and solar metallicity. The planetary system is composed of two giant planets with minimum mass of 1.75^{+0.20}_{-0.17}Mjup and 1.86^{+0.16}_{-0.15}Mjup, orbital period of 363.3^{+2.5}_{-2.4} d and 684.7^{+5.0}_{-4.9} d, and eccentricity of 0.089^{+0.079}_{-0.060} and 0.278^{+0.067}_{-0.094}, respectively, which are derived by a double Keplerian orbital fit to the radial-velocity data. The system adds to the population of multi-giant-planet systems with relatively small orbital separations, which are preferentially found around evolved intermediate-mass stars. Dynamical stability analysis for the system revealed, however, that the best-fit orbits are unstable in the case of a prograde configuration. The system could be stable if the planets were in 2:1 mean-motion resonance, but this is less likely considering the observed period ratio and eccentricity. A present possible scenario for the system is that both of the planets have nearly circular orbits, namely the eccentricity of the outer planet is less than ~0.15, which is just within 1.4sigma of the best-fit value, or the planets are in a mutually retrograde configuration with a mutual orbital inclination larger than 160 degree.

PV as Building Material Component

description: 28th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 4361-4365
description: Heat pumps (HP) and PV modules are among the best solutions for installation on buildings to meet
RES and EPBD Directives requirements. Although they are not usually coupled, some benefits may be obtained from
this combination: the efficiency and lifespan of the PV modules may be increased thanks to a cooling sys tem which
will simultaneously provide the HP with a source of renewable and free energy, enhancing its Coefficient Of
Performance (COP).
A specific system has been designed and installed in 2011 in a Net Zero Energy Building (NZEB) located in the
French Alps. The system is able to heat and cool the building as well as produce Domestic Hot Water, and the PV
installation is designed to produce annually as much energy as the building consumes.
A dedicated control system has been developed to manage the overall system, which, as well as the building, has
been modeled using a transient simulation software. Simulation results were compared to monitoring measurements
and once validated, the simulation model was used to compare this innovative solution with a standard one.
