description: This dissertation examines the self-fashioning of three female writers/artists, George Sand (1804-1876), Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923) and Gabrielle-Sidonie Colette (1873-1954). Considering their shared affinity with writing and the theater, I argue that each author refashions her self-portrait and public image by means of a unique textual performance, which is conveyed through clothing on stage as actresses (Bernhardt and Colette), backstage as playwrights, and on the page as authors. My goal in this work is to connect the autobiographical corpus of these three writers to the art of needlework and textile in the context of genre, gender, identity and performance. I am particularly interested in the ways fabric serves as a literal and metaphoric second skin to Sand, Bernhardt and Colette, who present the private self (the feminine body) to the public. First, I will analyze how Sand uses a patchwork of various genres in Histoire de ma vie (1854). Next, I will focus on Sarah Bernhardt’s ability to use the autobiographical genre as a draping cloth to perform various identities in a fiction of her reality in order to conceal the self in Ma double vie (1907) and in the visual arts. I ultimately show how Colette embroiders an imaginary canvas as a form of metaphor in Claudine series (1900-1904), and La Vagabonde (1911) as well as three later works: La maison de Claudine’s “La couseuse” (1922), Mes apprentissages (1936) and Broderie ancienne (1944). Textual analysis of autobiographies, memoirs, auto-fictions, and manuscripts, as well as close studies of agendas, newspapers and correspondence comprise the various sources I examine. I most importantly focus on the role of textiles in and within the autobiographical narratives in order to analyze the authors’ strategies to subvert the dominant phallocentric discourses and power structures from the fall of the July Monarchy with the Revolution of 1848 to the end of La Belle Époque in 1914.

Sacred Structures as Cosmic Reflections

description: This research paper explores the geometric and harmonic resonance principles underlying sacred architecture worldwide, applying Crippin’s Recursive Resonance Theory. Through geospatial mapping, Fibonacci scaling overlays, wave resonance analysis, ley line comparisons, and statistical correlation modeling, this study demonstrates that religious structures—including Chichén Itzá, Gothic Cathedrals, Hindu Temples, Buddhist Stupas, Mosques, and the Great Pyramid of Giza—follow a global harmonic tiling system.

 

Key findings include:

Sacred sites exhibit non-random Fibonacci scaling alignments.

Wave resonance simulations confirm vibrational energy amplification.

Ley line mapping reveals geometric correlations with Earth’s energy grid.

Statistical analysis confirms structured spatial relationships between sacred locations.

Evidence suggests an ancient global blueprint for harmonic architectural placement.

 

This study reinforces the idea that sacred structures are not just places of worship but energetic amplifiers designed to resonate with Earth’s natural frequencies, providing compelling evidence that ancient civilizations possessed advanced knowledge of sacred geometry, vibration mechanics, and recursive tiling systems.

description: We derive a quantum master equation for an atom coupled to a heat bath represented by a charged particle many-body environment. In Born-Markov approximation, the influence of the plasma environment on the reduced system is described by the dynamical structure factor. Expressions for the profiles of spectral lines are obtained. Wave packets are introduced as robust states allowing for a quasi-classical description of Rydberg electrons. Transition rates for highly excited Rydberg levels are investigated. A circular-orbit wave packet approach has been applied, in order to describe the localization of electrons within Rydberg states. The calculated transition rates are in a good agreement with experimental data.

description: An alternative approach to III-V multijunction solar cells design being a lattice matched GaPN(As) layers growth on Si is explored in paper. The test double- GaNxP1-x/Si and triple-junction GaNxP1-x/GaNxP1-x-yAsy/Si solar cells were fabricated on Si substrates. Relatively high values of open circuit voltage (1.5 and 2.2 V) were reached for doubleand triple-junction GaNP(As)/Si solar cells. While external quantum efficiency spectra demonstrates that the top and the middle junctions limit the total current and are not current matched with bottom Si junction due to insufficient photon absorption in GaNP and GaNPAs layers. Structural and electrical studies demonstrate the ways for improvement the material quality.

description: We present a variational Monte Carlo method that solves the nuclear many-body problem in the occupation number formalism exploiting an artificial neural network representation of the ground-state wave function. A memory-efficient version of the stochastic reconfiguration algorithm is developed to train the network by minimizing the expectation value of the Hamiltonian. We benchmark this approach against widely used nuclear many-body methods by solving a model used to describe pairing in nuclei for different types of interaction and different values of the interaction strength. Despite its polynomial computational cost, our method outperforms coupled-cluster and provides energies that are in excellent agreement with the numerically-exact full configuration interaction values.

description: Local flatness is a property shared by all the spin foam models. It ensures that the theory's fundamental building blocks are flat by requiring locally trivial parallel transport. In the context of simplicial Lorentzian spin foam theory, we show that local flatness is the main responsible for the emergence of geometry independently of the details of the spin foam model. We discuss the asymptotic analysis of the EPRL spin foam amplitudes in the large quantum number regime, highlighting the interplay with local flatness.

Electrical Characterisation and Modeling of Cells and Modules

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 2008-2011
description: A method of the p-n junction overheating temperature evaluation in PV modules operating in the maximum power point (MPP) regime has been elaborated. It does not require the specialized equipment, as well as the data on the open circuit (OC) voltage temperature coefficients measured in pulsed regime. The method consists in measuring several open circuit voltage magnitudes accompanied by temperature measurements on the external module surface near one of the cells. In the procedure, a fast transition from MPP to OC operational regime is carried out, at which a time-dependent voltage measurement is performed with the help of a memory oscilloscope. The OC voltage temperature coefficient, as well as a “reference” OC voltage magnitude in a “cold” module (the conditions realized at the moment after instant opening the module to the sun illumination) are determined by calculations. Therefore, mechanical shuttering the module aperture area is not necessary (a procedure, which can not be standardized). Methodological temperature evaluation accuracy is higher, if PV modules of higher conversion efficiency are tested.

description: A Si.15Ge.85 solar cell under GaAsP top cell can lead to as much as 8.8% absolute efficiency gain for a GaAsP-SiGe tandem structure under 20 Suns. In this work, low bandgap Si(1-x)Ge(x) solar cells are designed, fabricated, characterized and analyzed. Numerical and analytical methods are introduced to demonstrate the SiGe solar cells’ performance limits and examine the trade-offs between IV performance, cell’s structures and material composition. An efficiency of 1.7% with a Voc of 265 mV, a Jsc of 9.9 mA/cm2 and a FF of 64% is achieved with the Si.18Ge.82 cell under a GaAsP top cell. The highest Jsc measured without SiO2 back surface reflector, back texturing or anti-reflection coating is 12.9 mA/cm2 from a Si.12Ge.88 cell. By introducing 5% front broadband reflection, the expected Jsc will be 19.4 mA/cm2 for the same cell. By adding back surface field, a 415 mV Voc under 20 Suns is achieved. Implementing light trapping can lead to the target Jsc of 21 mA/cm2.

description: We have studied the liquid-like response of the surface of vapour-deposited glassy films of polystyrene to the introduction of gold nanoparticles on the surface. The build-up of polymer material was measured as a function of time and temperature for both as-deposited films, as well as films that have been rejuvenated to become normal glasses cooled from the equilibrium liquid. The temporal evolution of the surface profile is well described by the characteristic power law of capillary-driven surface flows. In all cases, the surface evolution of the as-deposited films and the rejuvenated films are enhanced compared to bulk and are not easily distinguishable from each other. The temperature dependence of the measured relaxation times determined from the surface evolution is found to be quantitatively comparable to similar studies for high molecular weight spincast polystyrene. Comparisons to numerical solutions of the glassy thin film equation provide quantitative estimates of the surface mobility. For temperatures sufficiently close to the glass-transition temperature, particle embedding is also measured and used as a probe of bulk dynamics, and in particular bulk viscosity.

description: Triple-junction (3J) solar cells will soon be history. The next generation of multi-junction (MJ) devices are now reaching efficiencies far beyond the record levels of 3J cells on Germanium. In this paper we present results of a 4J wafer-bonded solar cell with bandgaps 1.88 / 1.45 // 1.10 / 0.73 eV measured with an improved efficiency of 46.5% at 324x by Fraunhofer ISE. Design for cost has, from the outset, been a priority with the development of engineered substrates to replace costly and low yielding InP substrates, a product building on Soitec’s proprietary SmartCut® technology. Wafer bonding enables the electro-mechanical combination of lattice and thermal expansion mismatched materials with electrically conductive, transparent bonds, enabling concentrator solar cells to be built from high quality 2J GaInP/GaAs absorbers lattice-matched to GaAs bonded to high quality 2J GaInPAs/GaInAs absorbers lattice matched to InP that operate well at high concentration.

This report provides an overall set of information expanding from knowledge-base for the AI-Mind technology to user manuals and starter kits for the AI-Mind tools. The intention is to disseminate the scientific results produced by AI-Mind, as part of this informative set. The clinicians’ knowledge-base is built through educational material, which includes the AI-Mind educational programme, and a series of toolboxes that cover all disciplines relevant to the work of clinicians and other healthcare professionals. It also includes courses, webinars, interactive meetings, networks, as well as openly available reports and literature. The user manuals include detailed guidelines on the use of the developed AI-Mind tools. A preliminary outline of the manuals is presented here; the final version will be ready by the end of the project. The user starter kits are delivered as a two-step process: initially as a study starter kit, designed to cover the needs of the AI-Mind clinical study; this will be improved and evolve throughout the project, leading to the final user starter kit.

description: Background Despite many advances, patients with a poor ovarian response to stimulation are one of the most important and challenging factors of infertility. Chronological and ovarian ages are two effective factors in poor response to assisted reproductive treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of age and AMH level on the In vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes in participants with a reduced ovarian reserve. Methods In this retrospective cross-sectional study, 210 participants with anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) <1.1ng/ml were included. The effect of age and AMH on pregnancy outcomes including dominant follicle count, serum estradiol level on the day of trigger administration, number of metaphase II (MII) oocytes, number of embryos, biochemical pregnancy, clinical pregnancy, abortion and live birth rate were evaluated. Results The number of dominant follicle (p<0.001), MII oocyte (p<0.001), grade A (p<0.001) and B (p<0.001) embryos, serum estradiol level (p<0.001), gonadotropin level (p<0.001), AMH (p=0.001), biochemical (p=0.007) and clinical (p=0.01) pregnancy, and live birth rate (p=0.003) were higher in participants younger than 35 years old. In univariable logistic regression, the chance of retrieving more than 3 oocytes in individuals over 35 years old was 97.1% lower than in individuals younger than 35 years old (p<.001). Conclusion It has been concluded that the higher clinical pregnancy and live birth rate in participants younger than 35 years can be due to the higher AMH level in this group. Also, under the same conditions of AMH and other variables, age can affect the number of retrieved oocytes.

description: A-type stars are intrinsically bright, moderately numerous and kinetically warm. They trace the Galactic disk evolution at intermediate ages (0.3-1.0 Gyr), so they fill the gap between younger OB stars and older red giants. We present a catalogue of A-type stars selected in the northern Galactic plane (30º≤l≤215º and |b|≤5º) using photometry from the INT Galactic Plane Survey (IGAPS). It contains over 3.5 million sources up to magnitude r≤19 mag. We use Gaia Data Release 3 parallaxes, proper motions and line-of-sight velocities of these A-type stars to analyse the large-scale structure of the Milky Way disc and their kinematic distribution up to 6 kpc
 from the Sun.
 We find stellar overdensities associated with the Local and the Perseus spiral arms, as well as with the Cygnus region. We also detect the Galactic warp towards the anticentre starting at Galactocentric radius R≈12 kpc and having a median vertical motion of ∼6-7 km/s at R=14 kpc. This onset radius supports that the warp begins at larger radii on younger stellar tracers than on older ones. We also detect a region with downward motion extending beyond 2 kpc from the Sun towards 60º≤l≤75º that can be associated with a compression breathing mode. Furthermore, A-type stars reveal very clumpy inhomogeneities and asymmetries in the V_Z-V_φ velocity space plane.

description: The present paper reports metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) of InGaAs/GaAsP superlattice (SL) on 6°-off substrates using triethylgallium (TEGa) as the gallium precursor for the purpose of improving crystal quality and suppressing carbon incorporation for low-temperature growth. Uniform 100-period SLs with much suppressed thickness undulation were grown using TEGa by lowering the temperature to 510 °C, whereas growth with trimethylgallium (TMGa) below 530 °C severely degraded the crystal. Use of TEGa instead of TMGa also reduced p-type background doping in the SLs, and led to significant improvement in quantum efficiency (QE) in the entire spectrum. As a result of optimization of growth condition, an N-on-P cell containing 100-period SLs with bandgap of 1.21 eV showed enhanced middle cell performance of the GaAs reference cell, including 1.11 times higher efficiency and 1.36 times larger maximum power output current under a top cell filter (>665 nm).

description: A 4-junction Ga0.5In0.5P/Al0.05Ga0.95As/InGaAsN(Sb)/Ge solar cell with a 0.90 eV dilute nitride sub-cell has been modeled using a drift-diffusion based device simulator, and the effects of luminescent coupling have been incorporated into the device model by adding an additional term to the continuity equation to account for coupled generation. For a cell design optimized in terms of sub-cell band gaps and layer thicknesses, we find that a reduced thickness of InGaAsN(Sb) provides greatly reduced sensitivity to background doping, as well as an improvement in the fill factor of this sub-cell. The choices of GaAs and GaInP materials for the base and emitter of the InGaAsN(Sb) subcell are also compared, and GaAs shows a clear advantage under concentration. Despite the optimization effort, the InGaAsN(Sb) sub-cell has a poor fill factor (71 % at 1000 suns, 59% at 1 sun), which necessitates a higher JSC in this subcell relative to the other III-V sub-cells. Using our luminescent coupling model, we have investigated the photon recycling efficiency and the efficiency of coupling into the dilute nitride sub-cell. We contrast assumptions required in our numerical approach for incorporating luminescent coupling with assumptions made recent analytical approaches, and we find that the numerical approach has a much larger range of applicability. We observe an enhancement in sub-cell open-circuit voltages (VOC) , and an enhancement in JSC due to coupling from the top sub-cell front and back surface fields into the GaInP absorber layers.

Electrical Characterisation and Modeling of Cells and Modules

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 2002-2007
description: Photovoltaic cells that incorporate several active junctions in electrical series are demonstrating everhigher laboratory efficiencies. However, their sensitivity to variations in the solar spectrum can reduce their operating efficiency in the field. To assess how these variations can affect energy yield requires a detailed and reliable spectral irradiance dataset covering a typical meteorological year for any potential deployment site. This paper describes an attempt to produce such a dataset through a combination of measurements and simulation. A dedicated measurement system has been assembled to collect environmental data alongside direct normal spectral irradiance measurements utilising charge-coupled device array spectroradiometers. The calibration and validation procedures for this system are presented, and the final calibration uncertainty of the system is judged to be ±5.4% (k=2). The SMARTS atmospheric radiative transfer model is used to provide another means of measurement validation. Furthermore, SMARTS is then used to generate long-term irradiance data covering several months. A comparison of the measurements and simulations has shown that SMARTS is a useful tool for measurement validation. However, the present environmental inputs to the model produce long-term data that underestimates the occurrence of very bluerich spectra compared to measurements.

description: Textured glass substrates coated with transparent conducting oxide provides two textured interfaces for the light scattering into the thin film silicon solar cells, which will result in enhanced light trapping. Aluminium induced texturing of glass has been used to creat textured glasses and this work focuses at the etching method by using alkaline etchants like NaOH; thus reducing the complexity and cost of texturization by avoiding high temperature etching with ortho phosphoric acid or corrosive acids like HF. Alkaline etching results in a surface morphology of interconnected U-shaped micron range smooth and concave craters. Alkaline etching followed by a fast dip in 2% HF develops nanometric texture within the U shaped craters. The haze value at 600nm was found to decrease with decrease in thickness of Al and can be tuned from 8% to 40% by changing the process parameters. FTO coated textured glass shows a haze of 36%. The properties of these U shaped textured glasses are compared with that of commercially available Asahi U glass substrates.

description: Infrared (IR), sub-millimetre (sub-mm) and millimetre (mm) databases contain a huge quantity of high quality data. However, a large part of these data are photometric, and are thought not to be useful to derive a quantitative information on the nebular emission of galaxies. The aim of this project is first to identify galaxies at z > 4-6, and in the epoch of reionization from their sub-mm colours. We also aim at showing that the colours can be used to try and derive physical constraints from photometric bands, when accounting for the contribution from the IR fine structure lines to these photometric bands. We model the flux of IR fine structure lines with CLOUDY, and add them to the dust continuum emission with CIGALE. Including or not emission lines in the simulated spectral energy distribution (SED) modifies the broad band emission and colours. The introduction of the lines allows to identify strong star forming galaxies at z > 4 - 6 from the log10 (PSW_250um/PMW_350um) versus log10 (LABOCA_870um/PLW_500um) colour-colour diagramme. By comparing the relevant models to each observed galaxy colour, we are able to roughly estimate the fluxes of the lines, and the associated nebular parameters. This method allows to identify a double sequence in a plot built from the ionization parameter and the gas metallicity. The HII and photodissociation region (PDR) fine structure lines are an essential part of the SEDs. It is important to add them when modelling the spectra, especially at z > 4 - 6 where their equivalent widths can be large. Conversely, we show that we can extract some information on strong IR fine structure lines and on the physical parameters related to the nebular emission from IR colour-colour diagrams.

description: The aim of this work is to examine the properties and the post oxidation process of high rate deposited μc-Si thin films by maens of FTIR spectroscopy. High crystalline materials were deposited in an ECWR reactor with deposition rates between 1.2-1.8 nm/sec. The analysis of IR spectra, in the region of silicon hydrides stretching modes, revealed that the absorption band assigned to silicon hydrides on vacancies (HSM) is dominant. Moreover, the presence of three narrow peaks (NHSMs) attributed to the mono- , di- and tri-hydrides on the crystallites surface suggests that there is no sufficient amorphous tissue in the intergranual space. Films deposited with growth rates up to 1.8 nm/sec were very sensitive to oxidation, which starts immediately after the exposure to atmosphere.As the oxidation proceeds, the area of OxSi-Hy peaks increases while the intensity and the area of NHSMs and HSM peaks decrease indicating that the crystalline and the amorphous phases are both oxidized. Oxidized materials post treatment with hydrogen did not affect the spectra revealing that the oxidation could not be reversed.

description: We present the results of CO(J=3-2) on-the-fly mappings of two nearby non-barred spiral galaxies NGC 628 and NGC 7793 with the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment at an effective angular resolution of 25". We successfully obtained global distributions of CO(J=3-2) emission over the entire disks at a sub-kpc resolution for both galaxies. We examined the spatially-resolved (sub-kpc) relationship between CO(J=3-2) luminosities (L'CO(3-2)) and infrared (IR) luminosities (LIR) for NGC 628, NGC 7793, and M 83, and compared it with global luminosities of JCMT Nearby Galaxy Legacy Survey sample. We found a striking linear L'CO(3-2)-LIR correlation over the 4 orders of magnitude, and the correlation is consistent even with that for ultraluminous infrared galaxies and submillimeter selected galaxies. In addition, we examined the spatially-resolved relationship between CO(J=3-2) intensities (ICO(3-2)) and extinction-corrected star formation rates (SFRs) for NGC 628, NGC 7793, and M 83, and compared it with that for GMCs in M 33 and 14 nearby galaxy centers. We found a linear ICO(3-2)-SFR correlation with 1 dex scatter. We conclude that the CO(J=3-2) star formation law (i.e., linear L'CO(3-2)-LIR and ICO(3-2)-SFR correlations) is universally applicable to various types and spatial scales of galaxies, from spatially-resolved nearby galaxy disks to distant IR-luminous galaxies, within 1 dex scatter.

description: Lattice matched GaAsP/SiGe dual-junction solar cells have been grown directly on silicon substrates. This two-terminal structure has the potential of achieving tandem efficiencies of 35% by utilizing the high performance of the III-V top cell while maintaining the cost advantages of silicon solar cells. It is the SiGe graded buffer grown on the silicon substrate that ultimately allows for lattice matching of the top and bottom cell while providing a low dislocation interface between the silicon substrate and the device layers. The two-step growth process of these structures is accomplished using reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition followed by metal organic chemical vapor deposition. Fabrication is concluded with the application of a double layer anti-reflection coating. Initial tandem structures have reached open-circuit voltages and short-circuit current densities up to 1.5 V and 18.4 mA/cm2 with anti-reflection coating, respectively. Efficiencies of 18.9% have been achieved and near term improvements to 25% under AM1.5G will be presented.

description: Proceeding in exactly the same way as in the derivation of the temperature of a dual CFT for the extremal black hole in the Kerr/CFT correspondence, it is found that the temperature of a chiral, dual CFT for the Schwarzschild black hole is $T=1/2π$. Comparing Cardy's formula with the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy and using $T$, it is found that the central charge for the Schwarzschild black hole is of the form $c=12J_{\rm in}$, where $J_{\rm in}$ is the intrinsic angular momentum of the black hole, $J_{\rm in}=A/8πG$. It is shown that the central charge for any four-dimensional (4D) extremal black hole is of the same form. The possible universality of this form is briefly discussed.

Hints for new sources of flavour violation in meson mixing

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The recent results by the Fermilab Lattice and MILC collaborations on the hadronic matrix elements entering $B_{d,s}-\bar B_{d,s}$ mixing show a significant tension of the measured values of the mass differences $ΔM_{d,s}$ with their SM predictions. We review the implications of these results in the context of Constrained Minimal Flavour Violation models. In these models, the CKM elements $γ$ and $|V_{ub}|/|V_{cb}|$ can be determined from $B_{d,s}-\bar B_{d,s}$ mixing observables, yielding a prediction for $γ$ below its tree-level value. Determining subsequently $|V_{cb}|$ from the measured value of either $ΔM_s$ or $\varepsilon_K$ gives inconsistent results, with the tension being smallest in the Standard Model limit. This tension can be resolved if the flavour universality of new contributions to $ΔF = 2$ observables is broken. We briefly discuss the case of $U(2)^3$ flavour models as an illustrative example.

description: Dirac spinors are important objects in the current literature, the algebraic structure presented in the text-books is a general method to write it, however, not unique. The purpose of the present work is to show an alternative approach to construct Dirac spinors, considering the interchange between the Lorentz representation space (1/2,0) and (0,1/2) made by the "Magic of Pauli matrices" and not by parity, as commonly it was thought. As it is well known, parity operator is related with the Dirac dynamics. The major focus is to establish the relation between Dirac dynamics with parity operator, the reverse path shown in L. D. Sperança (2014).

Investigating the role of the T1 domain in the gating mechanism of KV1.1 channels
Creators: name: Imanzadeh, Saba

description: KV1.1 channels are encoded by the KCNA1 gene and often found as hetero-tetramers with other KV1 α-subunits. They are widely expressed in the nervous systems and responsible for a variety of physiological functions, ranging from regulating action potentials to involvement in cell apoptosis. Despite decades of research, there is still much that is unknown about the physiological role of some of KV1 α-subunit domains in their gating mechanisms. An example of this is the tetramerisation domain (T1) domain, located at the cytoplasmic N-terminus of the KV ion channels’ α-subunits. This project examines how T1 domain tetrameric stability affects gating properties of the KV1.1 channels. For this, amino acid residues that were predicted to affect the T1 domain stability were computationally identified. KV1.1α channel constructs with these mutations were made and functionally characterised using two electrode voltage clamp (TEVC). Out of these, mutations at residue L46 were shown to have significant effects on the voltage dependent gating properties of KV1.1 channels. These were L46F and L46D, which were predicted by in-silico analysis to cause de-stabilisation and increased stabilisation of the T1 domain respectively. Biochemical mixing assays, as well as thermal melt experiments were then used to assess the effect of L46 point mutations on the T1 domain protein stability. They all confirmed the predictions of the in-silico analysis stated above. Furthermore, NMR spectroscopy of these mutants found chemical shift changes occur at T1 domain subunit interfaces following L46 point mutations which taken together with functional and biochemical data presented here, strongly supports the impact of L46 point mutations on T1 domain tetrameric stability. Together, these data show changes in the T1 domain stability impact KV1.1 channel gating properties, which is consistent with the T1 domain and its stability playing a physiological role in the gating mechanism of KV1.1 channels.

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1979-1985
description: This paper explains some of the challenges associated with development of space solar array technology, framed in the context of the portofolio of missions and technologies currently pursued by the European Space Agency. We explain how solar cell technology developments have led to an evolution of space solar array technology, how different mission environments lead to different solar array designs and how these translate to the management of individual satellites in earth orbit and across the solar system. A brief explanation of future solar cell developments is included, illustrating the scope for further progress in both technology and hence satellite applications.
