description: Optical quantum memory is an essential element for long distance quantum communication and photonic quantum computation protocols. The practical implementation of such protocols requires an efficient quantum memory with long coherence time. Beating the no-cloning limit, for example, requires efficiencies above 50\%. An ideal optical fibre loop has a loss of 50% in 100 $μ$ s, and until now no universal quantum memory has beaten this time-efficiency limit. Here, we report results of a gradient echo memory (GEM) experiment in a cold atomic ensemble with a 1/e coherence time up to 1ms and maximum efficiency up to 87$\pm$2% for short storage times. Our experimental data demonstrates greater than 50% efficiency for storage times up to 0.6ms. Quantum storage ability is verified beyond the ideal fibre limit using heterodyne tomography of small coherent states.

description: Concentrating on zero temperature Quantum Monte Carlo calculations of electronic systems, we give a general description of the theory of finite size extrapolations of energies to the thermodynamic limit based on one and two-body correlation functions. We introduce new effective procedures, such as using the potential and wavefunction split-up into long and short range functions to simplify the method and we discuss how to treat backflow wavefunctions. Then we explicitly test the accuracy of our method to correct finite size errors on example hydrogen and helium many-body systems and show that the finite size bias can be drastically reduced for even small systems.

On the origin of cosmic-ray ionisation in star-forming regions

description: A field with particularly exciting results over the past few years is the study of the interaction of cosmic rays with interstellar matter. For star formation to take place, gas and dust need to be sufficiently cold for gravity to overcome thermal pressure, and the ionisation fraction must be low enough to enable substantial decoupling between the gas and the Galactic magnetic field. As soon as the visual extinction is of the order of 3-4 magnitudes, the ultraviolet photon flux from the interstellar radiation field is fully quenched, thus the only source of ionisation and heating is provided by low-energy cosmic rays. We will briefly focus on the Galactic and local origin of cosmic rays and on their effects on medium ionisation.

Differs from its only congener known from the Caucasus, B. lusitanus Verhoeff, 1898, mainly by the opisthomere possessing a smooth rather than striated lateral process, and a slightly rather than strongly bent anterior process. Material examined. 2 ♂♂, 8 ♀♀ (ZMUM), Georgia: AR Abkhazia, Pitsunda, Bzyb River Valley, meadow with a few Buxus trees, in litter, 8.IV.1983, SIG leg. Previous records from the Caucasus. Russia: southern Rostov-on-Don Region and Stavropol (Evsyukov and Golovatch 2013; Zuev 2014). General distribution. From eastern Poland in the west to southwestern Siberia, Russia and western Kazakhstan in the east (Nefediev et al. 2014, Kime and Enghoff 2017); subendemic to the Russian [= East European] Plain (Wytwer et al. 2009; Zuev 2014). Remarks. The species is new to the fauna of AR Abkhazia. It has already been known from the Caucasus region, reported by Zuev (2014) from a farm in the city of Stavropol, while the current record marks the southernmost locality of its known range. The occurrences of this species both at Stavropol and in Abkhazia seem to be synanthropic.

description: Understanding information processing biases is critical for improving scientific literacy. Research suggests that people rate scientific explanations with reductive jargon (e.g., irrelevant chemistry jargon in the explanation of a biological phenomenon) as better than those without – a phenomenon known as the reductive allure (RA) effect. Here, however, in three preregistered online experiments, we were unable to replicate this reductive allure effect using similar (and in some cases identical) materials and procedures to the original demonstration of the phenomena. Our results suggest that text-based RA effects may not be as strong as previously thought and are possibly changing over time.

description: Improved understanding of characteristics related to weather forecast accuracy in the United States may help meteorologists develop more accurate predictions and may help Americans better interpret their daily weather forecasts. This article examines how spatio-temporal characteristics across the United States relate to forecast accuracy. We cluster the United States into six weather regions based on weather and geographic characteristics and analyze the patterns in forecast accuracy within each weather region. We then explore the relationship between climate characteristics and forecast accuracy within these weather regions. We conclude that patterns in forecast errors are closely related to the unique climates that characterize each region.

description: Fuji Electric established device and production technologies of large-area, light-weight flexible thin
film Si solar cells and modules using 1m-wide and 3,000m long heat-resistant plastic film substrates. A unique
monolithic device structure having through-hole contacts formed on the flexible plastic film and various roll-to-roll
production technologies were developed and applied to production lines in our factory. The unique device structure
enables us to cut and connect cells easily resulting in easy customizing voltage and current specifications of products.
We have been focusing on high durability performance development with extreme caution and also been focusing on
developing effective acceleration tests. As we all know that 1,000h damp heat test defined in IEC61646 is not enough
for confirmation of long term quality. Extension of test duration or addition of another stress should be applied to the
damp heat test. We developed an original acceleration test of “Damp heat and current injection test”. It combines
damp heat test and current injection (bias application) into the module. The acceleration test duplicates defects that
are observed in modules exposed outdoors.

description: The discovery of giant quasar Ly$α$ nebulae at $z>2$ has opened up the possibility to directly study in emission the Circumgalactic and Intergalactic Medium (CGM/IGM). However, the resonant nature of the Ly$α$ line and its different emission mechanisms hamper the ability to constrain both the kinematics and physical properties of the CGM/IGM. Here, we present results of a pilot project aiming at the detection of CGM H$α$ emission, a line which does not suffer from these limitations. To this end, we first used KCWI to detect Ly$α$ emission around three bright quasars with $2.2510^{12}$M$_{\odot}$).

description: While laser scribing is widely used for all patterning steps in silicon and CdTe based thin-film modules
mechanical scribing is state-of-the-art for Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) based module manufacturing due to the lack of
reliable laser processes. Mechanical scribing has several disadvantages compared to laser scribing like large scribe
line widths, chipping or stylus abrasion. This work describes laser scribing processes for all patterning steps (P1, P2
and P3) of CIGS modules and demonstrates their feasibility. The dead-area of laser scribed modules was decreased to
less than 200µm resulting in an increase of module current. This was performed by using the line tracking technology
IPCS (Inline Precision Control System). Module efficiencies of more than 13.5% are demonstrated by using laser
processes for all patterning steps (all-laser) showing +4Wp increase in module power compared to the mechanically
scribed reference modules.

description: Despite major advances in quantitative approaches to natural resource management, there has been resistance to using these tools in the actual practice of managing ecological populations. Given a managed system and a set of assumptions, translated into a model, optimization methods can be used to solve for the most cost effective management actions. However, when the underlying assumptions are not met, such methods can potentially lead to poor decisions. Managers who develop decisions based on past experience and judgment, without the aid of mathematical models, can potentially learn about the system and develop flexible management strategies. However, these strategies are often based on subjective criteria and equally invalid and often unstated assumptions. Given the drawbacks of both methods, it is unclear whether simple quantitative models improve environmental decision making over expert opinion. In this paper, we explore how well students, using their experience and judgment, manage simulated fishery populations in an online computer game and compare their management outcomes to the performance of model-based decisions. We consider harvest decisions generated using four different quantitative models: 1. the model used to produce the simulated population dynamics observed in the game, with all underlying parameter values known [a control], 2. the same model, but with unknown parameter values that must be estimated during the game from observed data, 3. models that are structurally different from those used to simulate the population dynamics and 4. a model that ignores age structure. Humans on average performed much worse than the models in cases 1 - 3. When the models ignored age structure, they generated poorly performing management decisions, but still outperformed students using experience and judgment 66 percent of the time.

description: Direct coating of metal salt solutions is a facile and scalable non-vacuum method for depositing
copper-zinc-tin-sulfur precursor layers for Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) solar cell absorbers, which offers a
homogeneous intermixing of constituent elements on the molecular level. We present the growth of CZTSSe absorber
layers starting with a solution of metal salts and thiourea in dimethyl sulfoxide, deposited by spin coating on a Mo
coated soda lime glass substrate. The precursor is converted into crystalline material by annealing in elemental
selenium and in selenium in presence of a NaF top layer. It is shown that large grained, thick absorber layers (> 1.5
μm) without visible carbon layer in SEM can be grown by non-vacuum method. Impurity elements from the solvent
or metal salts are traced by SIMS measurements. J-V characteristics in combination with quantum efficiency
measurements of CZTSSe solar cells reveal improvements of Voc and FF when the precursor is coated with NaF prior
to annealing in selenium atmosphere.

description: The temperature dependence of the elastocaloric (eC) effect in natural rubber (NR) is studied adiabatically and isothermally. A broad temperature span for eC effect from 0 oC to 49 oC is observed. The maximum adiabatic temperature change (ΔT) is 12 K at strain of 6 and occurs at 10 oC. These behaviors can be predicted by the temperature dependence of strain-induced crystallization (SIC) and temperature-induced crystallization (TIC). In isothermal condition, the deduced ΔT from Clausius-Clapeyron factor can agree with the direct measurement at different temperatures. The eC performance of NR is compared with shape memory alloys (SMAs). The potential of NR for a near room temperature cooing application is primarily proved. This will open the SIC research of NR towards eC cooling direction.

description: This article introduces a new type of mass production technology for CIS absorber formation
yielding highest average module efficiencies. Key feature is a novel custom designed mass production furnace
exploiting the principle of forced convection during heating, the CIS formation reaction and cooling. In the
applied two stage process Cu(In,Ga)(Se,S)2 absorbers are formed by metal precursor deposition on soda lime
float glass substrates followed by reaction in the new equipment in selenium and sulfur containing atmosphere at
temperatures up to the transition temperature of the substrate glass. The reaction is performed in a custom
designed multiple chamber mass production equipment which can handle very corrosive, flammable and toxic
processing gases typically from atmospheric pressure to vacuum at high durability. The substrates (size:
50×120cm²) are processed in batches of up to 102 substrates each, applying forced convection for very
homogenous heat transfer and high heating and cooling rates. The multiple chamber design in combination with
large batches yields high production capacity even at cycle times above one hour. This approach combines and
exploits “best of both worlds”, i.e. the specific advantages of batch type and inline processing.
An excellent average aperture efficiency of 14.3% at a narrow distribution of ±0.31% on all processed modules in
a pilot production campaign and a peak efficiency of 15.1% is shown so far with this new technology. Long term
stability of the modules is derived from excellent results after 3000hrs damp heat testing.
This straightforward reliable technology is a key for highest performance CIS module mass production at very
competitive costs. We believe that module efficiencies of 17% will be achieved with this new technology.
Production costs below 0.38 $/Wp will be reached in a projected GWp factory with 16.3% average module
efficiency.

that mixture of S and GeS2 vapors accelerated grain growth during the sulfurization process. The bandgap energy of
the CTGS film was about 1.0 eV. CTGS is a promising candidate for bottom cells of double-junction solar cells.

description: We theoretically consider the effect of a spatially periodic modulation of the superconducting order parameter on the formation of Majorana fermions induced by a one-dimensional system with magnetic impurities brought into close proximity to an $s$-wave superconductor. When the magnetic exchange energy is larger than the inter-impurity electron hopping we model the effective system as a chain of coupled Shiba states. While in the opposite regime, the effective system is accurately described by a quantum wire model. Upon including a spatially modulated superconducting pairing, we find, for sufficiently large magnetic exchange energy, the system is able to support a single pair of Majorana fermions with one Majorana fermion on the left end of the system and one on the right end. When the modulation of superconductivity is large compared to the magnetic exchange energy, the Shiba chain returns to a trivially gapped regime while the quantum wire enters a new topological phase capable of supporting two pairs of Majorana fermions.

description: This work is a continuation of our efforts to develop an efficient implicit solver for multidimensional hydrodynamics for the purpose of studying important physical processes in stellar interiors, such as turbulent convection and overshooting. We present an implicit solver that results from the combination of a Jacobian-Free Newton-Krylov method and a preconditioning technique tailored to the inviscid, compressible equations of stellar hydrodynamics. We assess the accuracy and performance of the solver for both 2D and 3D problems for Mach numbers down to $10^{-6}$. Although our applications concern flows in stellar interiors, the method can be applied to general advection and/or diffusion-dominated flows. The method presented in this paper opens up new avenues in 3D modeling of realistic stellar interiors allowing the study of important problems in stellar structure and evolution.

description: Obtaining correct power in fast flasher measurements is a challenge in thin-film photovoltaic
modules. Transients on various timescales, a dependence on module history (lightsoaking effect) as well
as on measurement type are observed. 20 AVANCIS PowerMax® modules (CIGS thin film) about 1 square
metre in size were flashed under varying conditions to determine the measurement procedure which most
closely reflects real outdoor behaviour. From the results presented, we conclude with a list of recommended
measurement procedures for Avancis modules. With the most-favoured of those, agreement between flasher
and outdoor measurements is found to be within 2%. A round robin experiment involving three external

description: The compositional profile and the band alignment across the interface between the CdS buffer layer
and Kesterite absorber layer were investigated on Cu2ZnSnS4 and Cu2ZnSnSe4 devices. While the Cu2ZnSnS4
submodules had conversion efficiency as high as 9.2% in our previous work, the Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 submodules
showed S-shaped current-voltage curves with poor fill factor and efficiency, indicating some problems were involved
in the devices, probably at the p/n junction. Meanwhile, the Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 submodules exhibit high potential (i.e.,
Voc × Jsc ≈ 16–17 mW/cm2) to gain more than 12% efficiency. The X-ray/ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy
revealed the possible problems at the CdS/Cu2ZnSnSe4 interface; (i) a conspicuous interdiffusion of Cd, Zn, and Se,
and (ii) a large positive conduction-band offset (spike). By modifying deposition process of CdS layer to suppress the
interdiffusion, the S-shape was completely eliminated, and a new record efficiency of 10.8% has been achieved on a
Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 submodule.

description: Currently, the industrial production of surface texturing for multi-crystalline silicon solar cells is most
likely using acidic texturing technique. But the reflectance of acidic-textured surface of multi-crystalline wafers is
relatively high (~23%) due to its natural limit – grain boundary and non-orientation etching, as compared to monocrystalline
alkaline texturing wafers (~12%) which have pyramid surface structure to enhance light capturing. To
reduce multi-crystalline surface reflectance, dry texturing, such as RIE, is very helpful but the cost of ownership is
the major concern. In this study, a cost-effective chemical wet texturing technique is proposed. Additional additive
and optimized chemical cleaning are applied to form nano-structure in acidic-textured surface, which results in
significant surface reflectance reduction to ~16%. Such low reflectance is close to mono-crystalline alkaline-textured
surface and further improved cell efficiency of 0.3% absolute. Detailed process and cell performance will be
discussed.

description: Let $C(B,N)$ be the free associative conformal algebra generated by a set $B$ with a bounded locality $N$. Let $S$ be a subset of $C(B,N)$. A Composition-Diamond lemma for associative conformal algebras is firstly established by Bokut, Fong, and Ke in 2004 \cite{BFK04} which claims that if (i) $S$ is a Gröbner-Shirshov basis in $C(B,N)$, then (ii) the set of $S$-irreducible words is a linear basis of the quotient conformal algebra $C(B,N|S)$, but not conversely. In this paper, by introducing some new definitions of normal $S$-words, compositions and compositions to be trivial, we give a new Composition-Diamond lemma for associative conformal algebras which makes the conditions (i) and (ii) equivalent. We show that for each ideal $I$ of $C(B,N)$, $I$ has a unique reduced Gröbner-Shirshov basis. As applications, we show that Loop Virasoro Lie conformal algebra and Loop Heisenberg-Virasoro Lie conformal algebra are embeddable into their universal enveloping associative conformal algebras.

description: We study nonlinear parabolic stochastic partial differential equations with Wick-power and Wick-polynomial type nonlinearities set in the framework of white noise analysis. These equations include the stochastic Fujita equation, the stochastic Fisher-KPP equation and the stochastic FitzHugh-Nagumo equation among many others. By implementing the theory of $C_0-$semigroups and evolution systems into the chaos expansion theory in infinite dimensional spaces, we prove existence and uniqueness of solutions for this class of SPDEs. In particular, we also treat the linear nonautonomous case and provide several applications featured as stochastic reaction-diffusion equations that arise in biology, medicine and physics.

description: Two directions to low down the cost are higher efficiency and cheaper material consumption. As the
crystalline silicon solar cell dominates the PV markets, more and more materials are developed, such as mono-like
silicon substrates. In this work, we fabricated PERC solar cells based on mono-like silicon substrates. The technology
on cheaper substrates inducing higher efficiency will have higher priority in research 0.78% efficiency gain is
achieved on mono-like substrate, and the average efficiency reaches 18.4%. Compared with the mono-crystalline
PERC cells, the efficiency gain is lower, but higher than the multi-crystalline. There is still space for further
efficiency improvement with better material quality and optimization of the baseline.

description: We analyse various exponential off-diagonal decay rates of the elements of infinite matrices and their inverses. It is known that such decay of the elements of an infinite matrix does not imply inverse--closeness, i.e. the inverse, if exists, does not have the same order of decay. We discuss some consequences and extensions of this result.

description: Formation of well-working back contacts is considered as one of the main challenges when growing
CdTe solar cells in substrate configuration. Investigations of the back contact formation are difficult due to manifold
consequences on the solar cell especially when incorporating Cu at the back contact prior to CdTe deposition.
However, the application of a controlled Cu doping process after CdTe recrystallization can enable comparison of
different back contact materials isolated from effects on the doping or the junction properties. Solar cells with MoOx,
Sb and Sb2Te3 back contact buffers are presented with efficiencies of 13.4%, 11.4% and 12.6%, respectively. Back
contact quality for superstrate as well as substrate configuration solar cells is assessed by contact resistance and
barrier height measurements. Numerical simulation is applied to show that remaining differences in the series
resistance between substrate and superstrate configuration solar cells can be explained by the observed differences at
the back contact.

description: A new light-induced anodisation (LIA) method, which uses the light-induced current of the solar cell to
anodise Al evaporated on the p-type Si surface of the wafer, is reported. The implied open circuit voltage of 3-5 Ω cm
Cz p-type wafers with a P-diffused emitter sheet resistance of 180 Ω /_ and 18 nm of thermally-grown oxide on both
surfaces increased ~ 20 mV with LIA to a value of 650 mV where an increase of less than 10 mV was observed when
similar wafers were anodised using the previously-reported clip method. Although a decrease in the effective lifetime
can occur immediately after the LIA process, the lifetime can be recovered to match that of wafers passivated by a
SiO2/SiNx layer after annealing first in oxygen and then forming gas at 400 °C.

description: We report on the experimental investigation of the efficiency of some nonlinear crystals to generate microwave (RF) radiation as a result of optical rectification (OR) when irradiated with intense pulse trains delivered by a mode-locked laser at $1064\,$nm. We have investigated lithium triborate (LBO), lithium niobate (LiNbO$_3$), zinc selenide (ZnSe), and also potassium titanyl orthophosphate (KTP) for comparison with previous measurements. The results are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions based on the form of the second-order nonlinear susceptibility tensor. For some crystals we investigated also the second harmonic generation (SHG) to cross check the theoretical model. We confirm the theoretical prediction that OR leads to the production of higher order RF harmonics that are overtones of the laser repetition rate.

description: Localized doping and depth controllability are necessary for fabricating high efficiency silicon solar
cell structures such as selective emitter and back contact cells. Laser doping process is able to create such structures
without photolithography processes in atmospheric pressure and room temperature. In conventional laser doping
process, phosphosilicate glass or borosilicate glass is usually used as a doping precursor layer. However, no
absorption in the precursor layer and heat transfer via vague interfaces between silicon substrate and precursor layer
causes unreliable results. Silicon nano ink, which is highly doped silicon nanoparticles dispersed in organic solvent,
was used as doping precursor in this work. In this case, direct absorption in precursor layer containing silicon
nanoparticles will bring direct mixing of dopant atoms and molten silicon substrate which realize high controllability
of doping depth and concentration. After laser irradiation, the deep doping and creation of the p-n junction are
confirmed. Thus by varying laser power, we were able to control the doping depth easily. It is a high-potential
process for creation of novel crystalline silicon cell structures.

description: Rear side passivated solar cells is one of the next generation concepts of industrial mass production line.
We have achieved more than 20% with front side selective emitter and rear side passivation solar cells at the commercial
grade p-type 6 inch wafer. In this paper, we present results of the development of AlOx/SiNx stacked rear side passivation
structure. Microscopy was measured to compare the quality of the rear side contact, opening and the BSF area. Moreover
we merged rear side passivation and front side selective emitter with Ni/Cu plated contact. We investigated on the Corelation
about rear side passivation and front side plating electrode. Optimized rear line contact scheme and front side
plating condition was possible to increase the Jsc, Voc and conversion efficiency. Finally, we attained significant
improvements – Jsc = 38.55 mA/cm2, Voc = 649 mV, FF = 77.73 and conversion efficiency = 19.45% in the commercial
grade p-type silicon wafer PERC solar cell. In the PERC based selective emitter and Ni/Cu plated contact iVoc and Voc
gain are 24 mV and 6 mV each with respect to the PERC solar cells.
