description: The theory of bulk orbital magnetization has been formulated both in reciprocal space based on Berry curvature and related quantities, and in real space in terms of the spatial average of a quantum mechanical local marker. Here we consider a three-dimensional antiferromagnetic material having a vanishing bulk but a nonzero surface orbital magnetization. We ask whether the surface-normal component of the surface magnetization is well defined, and if so, how to compute it. As the physical observable corresponding to this quantity, we identify the macroscopic current running along a hinge shared by two facets. However, the hinge current only constrains the difference of the surface magnetizations on the adjoined facets, leaving a potential ambiguity. By performing a symmetry analysis, we find that only crystals exhibiting a pseudoscalar symmetry admit well-defined magnetizations at their surfaces at the classical level. We then explore the possibility of computing surface magnetization via a coarse-graining procedure applied to a quantum local marker. We show that multiple expressions for the local marker exist, and apply constraints to filter out potentially meaningful candidates. Using several tight-binding models as our theoretical test bed and several potential markers, we compute surface magnetizations for slab geometries and compare their predictions with explicit calculations of the macroscopic hinge currents of rod geometries. We find that only a particular form of the marker consistently predicts the correct hinge currents.

description: Lithium-ion batteries have been commonly employed as power sources in portable devices and are of great interest for large-scale energy storage. To further enhance the fundamental understanding of the electrode structure, we report on the use of multi-wavelength Raman spectroscopy for the detailed characterization of layered cathode materials for Li-ion batteries (LiCoO₂, LiNixCo₁₋xO₂, LiNi1/₃Mn₁/₃Co₁/₃O₂). Varying the laser excitation from the UV to the visible (257, 385, 515, 633 nm) reveals wavelength-dependent changes in the vibrational profile and overtone/combination bands, originating from resonance effects in LiCoO₂. In mixed oxides, the influence of resonance effects on the vibrational profile is preserved but mitigated by the presence of Ni and/or Mn, highlighting the influence of resonance Raman spectroscopy on electronic structure changes. The use of UV laser excitation (257, 385 nm) is shown to lead to a higher scattering efficiency towards Ni in LiNi₁/₃Mn₁/₃Co₁/₃O₂ compared to visible wavelengths, while deep UV excitation at 257 nm allows for the sensitive detection of surface species and/or precursor species reminiscent of the synthesis. Our results demonstrate the potential of multi-wavelength Raman spectroscopy for the detailed characterization of cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries, including phase/impurity identification and quantification, as well as electronic structure analysis.

description: The space of Null Lagrangians is the least investigated territory in dynamics since they are identically sent to zero by their Euler-Lagrange operator and thereby having no effects on equations of motion. A humble effort to discover the relevance of these Null Lagrangians in dynamics is made by introducing a generalized procedure (with respect to the recent procedure introduced by the authors of this paper) that takes advantage of the null-ness of these Lagrangians to construct non-standard Lagrangians that represent a range of interesting dynamical systems. By using the generalized procedure, derivation of equations of motion for a harmonic oscillator as well as for the Bateman and Duffing oscillators is presented. The obtained results demonstrate a new role played by the null Lagrangians and their corresponding non-standard Lagrangians in describing linear and nonlinear, and dissipative and non-dissipative dynamical systems.

description: We report the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) detections of high-energy (>100 MeV) gamma-ray emission from two recent optically bright classical novae, V1369 Centauri 2013 and V5668 Sagittarii 2015. At early times, Fermi target-of-opportunity observations prompted by their optical discoveries provided enhanced LAT exposure that enabled the detections of gamma-ray onsets beginning ~2 days after their first optical peaks. Significant gamma-ray emission was found extending to 39-55 days after their initial LAT detections, with systematically fainter and longer duration emission compared to previous gamma-ray detected classical novae. These novae were distinguished by multiple bright optical peaks that encompassed the timespans of the observed gamma rays. The gamma-ray light curves and spectra of the two novae are presented along with representative hadronic and leptonic models, and comparisons to other novae detected by the LAT are discussed.

description: Charged excitons called trions play an important role in the fundamental valley dynamics in the newly emerging 2D semiconductor materials. We used ultrafast pump- probe spectroscopy to study the valley trion dynamics in a MoSe$_2$ monolayer grown by using chemical vapor deposition. The dynamics display an ultrafast trion formation followed by a non-exponential decay. The measurements at different pump fluences show that the trion decay dynamics become slower as the excitation density increases. The observed trion dynamics and the associated density dependence are a result of the trapping by two defect states as being the dominating decay mechanism. The simulation based on a set of rate equations reproduces the experimental data for different pump fluences. Our results reveal the important trion dynamics and identify the trapping by defect states as the primary trion decay mechanism in monolayer MoSe$_2$ under the excitation densities used in our experiment.

description: Two transuranium metal boron carbides, NpB2C and PuB2C have been synthesized by argon arc melting. The crystal structures of the {Np,Pu}B2C compounds were determined from single crystal X-ray data to be isotypic with the ThB2C-type (space group R3m, a = 0.6532(2) nm; c = 1.0769(3) nm for NpB2C and a = 0.6509(2) nm; c = 1.0818(3) nm for PuB2C; Z=9). Physical properties have been derived from polycrystalline bulk material in the temperature range from 2 K to 300 K and in magnetic fields up to 9 T. Magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity data indicate the occurrence of antiferromagnetic ordering for NpB2C with a Neel temperature T_N = 68 K. PuB2C is a Pauli paramagnet most likely due to a strong hybridisation of s(p,d) electrons with the Pu-5f states. A pseudo-gap, as concluded from the Sommerfeld value and the electronic transport, is thought to be a consequence of the hybridisation. The magnetic behaviour of {Np,Pu}B2C is consistent with the criterion of Hill.

description: In interdependent networks, it is usually assumed, based on percolation theory, that nodes become nonfunctional if they lose connection to the network giant component. However, in reality, some nodes, equipped with alternative resources, together with their connected neighbors can still be functioning once disconnected from the giant component. Here we propose and study a generalized percolation model that introduces a fraction of reinforced nodes in the interdependent networks that can function and support their neighborhood. We analyze, both analytically and via simulations, the order parameter$-$the functioning component$-$comprising both the giant component and smaller components that include at least one reinforced node. Remarkably, we find that for interdependent networks, we need to reinforce only a small fraction of nodes to prevent abrupt catastrophic collapses. Moreover, we find that the universal upper bound of this fraction is 0.1756 for two interdependent Erdős-Rényi (ER) networks, regular-random (RR) networks and scale-free (SF) networks with large average degrees. We also generalize our theory to interdependent networks of networks (NON). Our findings might yield insight for designing resilient interdependent infrastructure networks.

description: We present a new formulation for numerically obtaining axisymmetric equilibrium structures of rotating stars in two spatial dimensions. With a view to apply it to the secular evolution of rotating stars, we base it on the Lagrangian description, i.e., we solve the force-balance equations to find the spatial positions of fluid elements endowed individually with a mass, specific entropy and angular momentum. The system of nonlinear equations obtained by finite-differencing the basic equations are solved with the W4 method, which is a new multi-dimensional root-finding scheme of our own devising. We augment it with a remapping scheme to avoid distortions of the Lagrangian coordinates. In this first one of a series of papers, we will give a detailed description of these methods initially. We then present the results of some test calculations, which include the construction of both rapidly rotating barotropic and baroclinic equilibrium states. We gauge their accuracies quantitatively with some diagnostic quantities as well as via comparisons with the counterparts obtained with an Eulerian code. For a demonstrative purpose, we apply the code to a toy-model cooling calculation of a rotating white dwarf.

description: Quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) signals are discovered in some fast radio bursts (FRBs) such as FRB 20191221A, as well as in the X-ray burst associated with the galactic FRB from SGR 1935+2154. We revisit the intermediate-field FRB model where the radio waves are generated as fast-magnetosonic waves through magnetic reconnection near the light cylinder. The current sheet in the magnetar wind is compressed by a low frequency pulse emitted from the inner magnetosphere to trigger magnetic reconnection. By incorporating the wave dynamics of the magnetosphere, we demonstrate how the FRB frequency, the single pulse width, and luminosity are determined by the period, magnetic field, QPO frequency and quake energetics of the magnetar. We find that this model can naturally and self-consistently interpret the X-ray/radio event from SGR 1935+2154 and the QPO in FRB 20191221A. It can also explain the observed wide energy range of repeating FRBs in a narrow bandwidth.

description: Predicted energy yields are only achieved, if the impact of a location with its specific abrasion and soiling properties on PV-modules is known, especially in harsh climates like deserts with sand storms, fine dust and arid conditions. Functional materials like structured glass, anti-reflective coatings (ARC) and anti-soiling-coatings (ASC) are supposed to guarantee higher yields. But keep these products there promises and how stable are they? Maintenance and material choice can be adapted to the location, but therefore it is necessary to determine properties and functionality of the module surfaces. Such tests enable to benchmark materials, allow to determine the effects on the modules output and to investigate their long-time resistance. The results show that soiling depends on surface morphology and tilt angle. Prismatic and pyramid structured glasses soil easier especially under flat angles in flat-roof integrated systems or equatorial regions. To investigate self-cleaning properties of surfaces a test method is presented. The results show that ASC can help improving the self-cleaning properties and therefore improve the yield of a PV system. An abrasion test is presented and enable to investigate the abrasion on coatings due to soil or cleaning devices. Moreover, the impact of certain cleaning devices on the module quality is investigated in special procedures.

description: 7. Tristagma graminifolium (Phil.) Ravenna (1978: 133)
 Bas.: Steinmannia graminifolia Philippi (1884: 64) ≡ Garaventia graminifolia (Phil.) Looser (1944: 79) ≡ Nothoscordum graminifolium (Phil.) Traub (1968: 49). Type (lectotype, designated here):— CHILE. Cerro Renca, 1883/8, F. Philippi s.n. (SGO 000001119!; isolectotype: SGO 000001120!).
 Notes: — First Traub (1968) treated this species under Nothoscordum, and then Guaglianone (1972) placed it as a doubtful species of Nothoscordum. However, as stated by Ravenna (1978), Tristagma graminifolium has fused tepals forming a tube and the base chromosome number is 2n = 2x = 8 (metacentric chromosomes), as in the rest of the studied species of Tristagma, whereas in Nothoscordum the basic chromosome number is x = 5 (3 metacentric + 2 acrocentric chromosome pairs) or x = 4 (3 metacentric + 1 acrocentric chromosome pairs) (Crosa 1981). In a preliminary phylogenetic study of Tristagma, this species also resolved as part of Tristagma (A.B. Sassone, L.M. Giussani in prep.).
 Conservation status: — Endangered (EN), under criterion B1ab(iii) ([a: severely fragmented or Number of locations; b(iii): continuing decline observed of the area, extent and/or quality of habitat)]. The species was found in five hills near Santiago, that are severely fragmented with disturbed vegetation affected by human activity (Fig. 2A). Following the proposal made by the Ministerio de Ambiente de Chile this species is considered Vulnerable (VU, http:// www.mma.gob.cl/clasificacionespecies/fichas8proceso/fichas_finales/ Tristagma_graminifolium _P08_propuesta. pdf.). According to Ravenna et al. (1998), this species also occurs in Valparaiso, for which we do not have records. However, the conservation status proposal includes a photo of a plant which is misidentified—the plant is part of a herbarium sheet of T. graminifolium (Grandjot 146276, CONC!).

description: Due to challenging applications such as collaborative filtering, the matrix completion problem has been widely studied in the past few years. Different approaches rely on different structure assumptions on the matrix in hand. Here, we focus on the completion of a (possibly) low-rank matrix with binary entries, the so-called 1-bit matrix completion problem. Our approach relies on tools from machine learning theory: empirical risk minimization and its convex relaxations. We propose an algorithm to compute a variational approximation of the pseudo-posterior. Thanks to the convex relaxation, the corresponding minimization problem is bi-convex, and thus the method behaves well in practice. We also study the performance of this variational approximation through PAC-Bayesian learning bounds. On the contrary to previous works that focused on upper bounds on the estimation error of M with various matrix norms, we are able to derive from this analysis a PAC bound on the prediction error of our algorithm. We focus essentially on convex relaxation through the hinge loss, for which we present the complete analysis, a complete simulation study and a test on the MovieLens data set. However, we also discuss a variational approximation to deal with the logistic loss.

description: Excellent mechanical and dielectric properties allied to relatively low cost made PET an ideal material as a mid-layer in TPT and lately TPE laminate backsheet structures. Market conditions from 2006 onwards necessitated the need for replacement weatherable layers in these laminates and many PPE structures emerged. The weatherable layer in such structures primarily needs to withstand combinations of sunlight (UV), temperature and humidity to which the reverse of the module is typically exposed. A multiplicity of PET films have been introduced which show improvements over standard PET for the key area of hydrolysis resistance. The standard for moisture resistance which has been adopted is the damp heat test, DHT, namely survival after 1000 hours exposure to 85° C and 85% RH. Films with hydrolysis lifetimes of at least twice the damp heat test standard appeared on the market. Conversely recent academic work has postulated that the 1000 hour damp heat test actually predicts lifetimes of standard PET of at least hundreds of years in external conditions. We will illustrate in this paper that the foundations of this work has been based on the use of incorrect kinetics to describe PET hydrolysis and that when the correct kinetics are used, a DHT of 1000 hours is inadequate to safely predict a field lifetime in excess of 25 years .

Results indicate that most of the interconnect ribbons may be strained through module mechanical loading to a level that will result in failure in a few hundred to thousands of cycles. Considering the speed at which DML may be applied, this translates into a few hours of testing. To evaluate the equivalence of DML to thermal cycling, parallel tests were conducted with thermal cycling. Preliminary analysis suggests that one ±1 kPa DML cycle is roughly equivalent to one standard accelerated thermal cycle and approximately 175 of these cycles are equivalent to a 25-year exposure in Golden Colorado for the mechanism of module ribbon fatigue.

PV Modules

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 2495-2498
description: The lifetime of a PV module is critical for PV manufactures, developers and end-users as it directly affects the energy yield and so cost of a PV system. The standards IEC61215, 61646 and 61730 are considered excellent for identification of major design issues, but they do not include sufficient testing to be able to predict outdoor performance and lifetime. The objective of the PV Module Lifetime Prediction work-package in the FP7 project SOPHIA was to investigate a standard for lifetime prediction based on combined stress testing of commercially available PV modules. This paper will describe the work performed in testing three module types beyond the standards mentioned above with the aim of developing a quality assurance sequence for PV modules. The goal of this sequence is to provide a tool to identify failure mechanisms and predict lifetimes for different climatic conditions for different module types.

description: Le caroubier est un arbre méditerranéen qui est très utilisé en médecine traditionnelle et en alimentation pour son fruit et ses graines. Les feuilles et les écorces constituent donc des sous-produits mais elles ne sont pas très valorisées. L’objectif principal de cette étude est de distinguer les différents éléments botaniques de la feuille et de l’écorce puis d’étudier qualitativement et quantitativement leurs composants chimiques. Il s’agit donc d’une étude descriptive comparative par une étude macroscopique et microscopique de la coupe transversale et de la poudre suivie d’un screening tri-phytochimique et d’un dosage spectrophotométrique des polyphénols et des flavonoïdes de la feuille et de l’écorce du caroubier. Ces deux parties renferment des poils tecteurs et des fibres scléreuses péricycliques mais seule l’écorce contient des cellules scléreuses, le screening phytochimique a confirmé la présence des stérols des saponosides ainsi que des polyphénols avec 37,32 mg/g dont 24,20 mg/g de flavonoïdes dans les feuilles et de 28,54mg/g dont 5,76mg/g de flavonoïdes dans l’écorce. Ces résultats très encourageants doivent être complétés par des études chimiques, biologiques et cliniques plus approfondies afin de permettre un sage thérapeutique.

Standardisation as Tool for Innovation and Cost Reduction

description: The results of a measurement intercomparison between eleven European laboratories measuring PV energy relevant parameters are reported. The purpose of the round-robin was to assess the uncertainty analyses of the participating laboratories on c-Si modules and to establish a baseline for the following thin-film round-robin. Alongside the STC measurements, low irradiance conditions (200W/m2) and temperature coefficients measurements were performed. The largest measurement deviation from the median at STC was for HIT modules from -3.6% to +2.7% in PMAX, but in agreement with the stated uncertainties of the participants. This was not the case for low irradiance conditions and temperature coefficients measurements with some partners underestimating their uncertainties. Larger deviations from the median from -5% to +3% in PMAX at low irradiance conditions and -6.6% to +18.3% for the PMAX temperature coefficient were observed. The main sources of uncertainties contributing to the spread in measurements were the RC calibration, mismatch factor and capacitive effects at STC and low irradiance conditions as well as the additional light inhomogeneity for the latter. The uncertainty in the junction temperature and the temperature deviation across the module were the major contributors for temperature coefficients measurements.
A Three-Mode Erasure Code for Continuous Variable Quantum Communications

description: Quantum states of light being transmitted via realistic free-space channels often suffer erasure errors due to several factors such as coupling inefficiencies between transmitter and receiver. In this work, an error correction code capable of protecting a single-mode quantum state against erasures is presented. Our three-mode code protects a single-mode Continuous Variable (CV) state via a bipartite CV entangled state. In realistic deployments, it can almost completely reverse a single erasure on the encoded state, and for two erasures can it improve the fidelities of received states relative to direct transmission. The bipartite entangled state used in the encoding can be Gaussian or non-Gaussian, with the latter further enhancing the performance of the code. Our new code is the simplest code known that protects a single mode against erasures and should prove useful in the construction of practical CV quantum networks that rely on free-space optics.

description: This article proposes a fault identification method, based on the complementary analysis of the light and dark current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the photovoltaic (PV) module, to distinguish between four important degradation modes that lead to power loss in PV modules: (a) degradation of the electrical circuit of the PV module (cell interconnect breaks; corrosion of the junction box, module cables and connectors); (b) mechanical damage to the solar cells (cell microcracks and fractures); (c) potential-induced degradation (PID) sustained by the module; and (d) optical losses affecting the module (soiling, shading, discoloration). The premise of the method that is proposed is that different degradation modes affect the light and dark I-V characteristics of the PV module in different ways, leaving distinct signatures. This work focuses on identifying and correlating these specific signatures present in the light and dark I-V measurements, to specific degradation modes; a number of new dark I-V diagnostic parameters are proposed to quantify these signatures. The experimental results show that these dark I-V diagnostic parameters, complemented by light I-V performance and series resistance measurements can accurately detect and identify the four degradation modes discussed.

description: Fused filament fabrication (FFF), an additive manufacturing process, is an emerging technology with issues in the uncertainty of mechanical properties and quality of printed parts. The consideration of all main and interaction effects when changing print parameters is not efficiently feasible, due to existing stochastic dependencies. To address this issue, a machine learning method is developed to increase reliability by optimizing input parameters and predicting system responses. A structure of artificial neural networks (ANN) is proposed that predicts a system response based on input parameters and observations of the system and similar systems. In this way, significant input parameters for a reliable system can be determined. The ANN structure is part of physics-informed machine learning and is pretrained with domain knowledge (DK) to require fewer observations for full training. This includes theoretical knowledge of idealized systems and measured data. New predictions for a system response can be made without retraining but by using further observations from the predicted system. Therefore, the predictions are available in real time, which is a precondition for the use in industrial environments. Finally, the application of the developed method to print bed adhesion in FFF and the increase in system reliability are discussed and evaluated.

description: Realistic nuclear potentials, derived within chiral perturbation theory, are a major breakthrough in modern nuclear structure theory, since they provide a direct link between nuclear physics and its underlying theory, namely the QCD. As a matter of fact, chiral potentials are tailored on the low-energy regime of nuclear structure physics, and chiral perturbation theory provides on the same footing two-nucleon forces as well as many-body ones. This feature fits well with modern advances in ab-initio methods and realistic shell-model. Here, we will review recent nuclear structure calculations, based on realistic chiral potentials, for both finite nuclei and infinite nuclear matter.

description: Since release of Edition 1 of IEC 61730 series the photovoltaic industry has experienced rapid growth and undergone a large number of changes. As a result, during the past two years Working Group 2 (WG2) of the technical committee for Solar Photovoltaic Energy Systems (TC82) of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) invested a considerable effort in updating the governing PV module safety standards to respond to PV industry needs as well as reflect technological changes and advances.
In particular, with the revision of IEC 61730 a need to reflect the current understanding of low voltage DC (up to 1,500V d.c.) components and materials used in the construction of PV modules arouse. This includes permitting new materials and new designs while at the same time complying with international horizontal standards that need to be met in order to comply with governing national electric codes.
Part 1 of IEC 61730 addresses the minimum requirements for module design while Part 2 deals with the required tests protocols and test sequences. New tests have been added to Part 2 of Edition 2 as the material requirements necessitate the confirmation of their properties during PV module operation. This paper explains the most crucial changes to Edition 1 of IEC 61730 series and shows that most PV modules on the market today already fulfill the requirements of the second edition. In this context it is important to understand the concepts of component approvals, insulation coordination, protection against electric shock, overvoltage category, protection class, material group and pollution degree as well as the resulting voltage limitation conjunction to minimum clearances (cl) and creepage distances (cr) and distance through insulation (dti) for cemented joints.

 Notes: — This species is considered as a different unit based on the protologue and specimens studied from Gay collection. Nevertheless, neither in the original description, nor the herbarium’s label written by Gay mentions locality, therefore the distribution and habitat of this species remain uncertain due the lack of material.
 Conservation status:— Only known from the type collection, collected in 1854; therefore, probably a very rare or even extinct taxon.

description: We study the evolution of convex complete non-compact graphs by positive powers of Gauss curvature. We show that if the initial complete graph has a local uniform convexity, then the graph evolves by any positive power of Gauss curvature for all time. In particular, the initial graph is not necessarily differentiable.
