description: ECOSOLE is an European collaborative Project [1] started in August 2012 that involves several
industrial and institutional partners with the aim to develop a complete and innovative concentrating photovoltaic
system. During the first two years of activity, many specific components as cells, optics, modules and tracker have
been designed and developed. This work reports the description of these devices and the main results of the
characterization campaigns carried out both indoor and outdoor conditions, in order to define their technical features
as well as their performances. Particular attention has been paid to the investigation on the components reliability
which is a crucial point for the CPV technology diffusion.

description: Galactic cosmic rays are believed to be mostly accelerated at supernova shocks. However, the interstellar magnetic field is too weak to efficiently accelerate galactic cosmic rays up to the highest energies, i.e. $10^{15}$ eV. A stronger magnetic field in the pre-shock region could provide the efficiency required. Bell's cosmic-ray nonresonant streaming instability has been claimed to be responsible for the amplification of precursor magnetic fields. However, an alternative mechanism has been proposed in which the cosmic-ray pressure gradient forms the shock precursor and drives turbulence, amplifying the magnetic field via the small-scale dynamo. A key ingredient for the mechanism to operate are the inhomogeneities present in the interstellar medium (ISM). These inhomogeneities are the consequence of turbulence. In this work we explore the magnetic field amplification in different ISM conditions through 3D MHD numerical simulations.

III-V-based Multi-junction Solar Cells, Concentrator Solar Cells and Space Solar Cells

description: 31st European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1422-1425
description: Thin-film III-V solar cells provide excellent characteristics for application in space solar panels. However, the currently applied copper stabilization foil might diffuse into the active solar cell material, potentially inducing detrimental damage to the solar cell. In four different accelerated life time tests it was found that copper diffusion indeed has a potentially detrimental effect on device performance. A reduction in Jsc is observed for deep junction cells, due to a minority carrier life time reduction. More noticeably Voc is affected in shallow junction cells, indicating enhanced non-radiative recombination due to introduction of Cu trap levels in the depletion region. Contact layers with high carrier densities are found to be unfavourable, as high dopant concentrations negatively influence the material quality of the layer. Additionally it was found that the Au contact/mirror functions as a barrier to Cu diffusion but that it will break down eventually. A dependence on the Cu thickness was also observed, but further experiments are required to explain this dependence. Although an optimized device design can inhibit Cu diffusion, it is still advisable to either implement a suitable diffusion barrier or find an alternative metal for the handling and support foil.

description: In this study, theoretical and experimental results obtained in the development of a four junction solar cell AlInGaP/AlInGaAs/InGaAs/Ge for space application are reported. These solar cells can reach an AM0 efficiency of 32% and, in a near future, can be a candidate to replace triple junction solar cells in powering new generation satellites where very high performances are requested. The main characteristic of this structure is that all selected materials can be grown lattice matched on germanium substrate. The experience gained in the development of high band gap materials allows the future development of four junction on InGaNAs or for five junction solar cells with the aim to reach by 2020 an efficiency of 40%.

description: Recent advances in experimental and computational techniques have allowed for an accurate description of the adsorption of ionic liquids on metallic electrodes. It is now well established that they adopt a multi-layered structure, and that the composition of the layers changes with the potential of the electrode. In some cases, potential-driven ordering transitions in the first adsorbed layer have been observed in experiments probing the interface on the molecular scale or by molecular simulations. This perspective gives an overview of the current understanding of such transitions and of their potential impact on the physical and (electro)chemical processes at the interface. In particular, peaks in the differential capacitance, slow dynamics at the interface and changes in the reactivity have been reported in electrochemical studies. Interfaces between ionic liquids and metallic electrodes are also highly relevant for their friction properties, the voltage-dependence of which opens the way to exciting applications.

description: Some very recent “states of the field” of the history of political thought are rich in valuable information and raise many considerations. As often happens, though, rather than dwelling on what is shared, perhaps it could be more fruitful to reason in dialogue with the authors on how their reflection surprises or perplexes. In order to avoid unconscious ideological trends, the main issues to debate seem to be the idea of a role for the history of political thinking, the global perspective, the meaning of context, the relationship between the history of political thought and political theory and, mainly, the concept of scholar’s interest.

description: In this work we present our latest results and analysis of a 10 MeV proton irradiation experiment
performed on III-V solar cells. A set of representative devices were irradiated for different fluences, including latticematched
GaInP/GaInAs/Ge triple junction, GaInP/Ge double junction, and GaAs and Ge single junction solar cells.
The methodology applied included the irradiation of two devices of each type; for a better control of the measurements,
non-irradiated devices with the same characteristics of those irradiated were used as reference. The devices were
monitored before and after each exposure by in-situ characterization of the electrical response under dark and under
illumination using a solar simulator connected to the irradiation chamber through a borosilicate glass window. Ex-situ
characterization techniques included dark and 1 sun AM0 illumination I-V curve and external quantum efficiency
measurements. Furthermore, results of the numerical simulation of devices with D-AMPS-1D code are presented in
order to give a physical interpretation of the results. DLTS spectroscopy preliminary results for single junction GaAs
cells are also presented.

description: We study the inflationary quantum-to-classical transition for the adiabatic curvature perturbation $ζ$ due to quantum decoherence, focusing on the role played by squeezed-limit mode couplings. We evolve the quantum state $Ψ$ in the Schrödinger picture, for a generic cubic coupling to additional environment degrees of freedom. Focusing on the case of minimal gravitational interactions, we find the evolution of the reduced density matrix for a given long-wavelength fluctuation by tracing out the other (mostly shorterwavelength) modes of $ζ$ as an environment. We show that inflation produces phase oscillations in the wave functional $Ψ[ζ(\mathbf{x})]$, which suppress off-diagonal components of the reduced density matrix, leaving a diagonal mixture of different classical configurations. Gravitational nonlinearities thus provide a minimal mechanism for generating classical stochastic perturbations from inflation. We identify the time when decoherence occurs, which is delayed after horizon crossing due to the weak coupling, and find that Hubble-scale modes act as the decohering environment. We also comment on the observational relevance of decoherence and its relation to the squeezing of the quantum state.

description: One of the challenging research problems in the domain of time series analysis and forecasting is making efficient and robust prediction of stock market prices. With rapid development and evolution of sophisticated algorithms and with the availability of extremely fast computing platforms, it has now become possible to effectively extract, store, process and analyze high volume stock market time series data. Complex algorithms for forecasting are now available for speedy execution over parallel architecture leading to fairly accurate results. In this paper, we have used time series data of the two sectors of the Indian economy: Consumer Durables sector and the Small Cap sector for the period January 2010 to December 2015 and proposed a decomposition approach for better understanding of the behavior of each of the time series. Our contention is that various sectors reveal different time series patterns and understanding them is essential for portfolio formation. Further, based on this structural analysis, we have also proposed several robust forecasting techniques and analyzed their accuracy in prediction using suitably chosen training and test data sets. Extensive results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our propositions.

description: One of the major open questions in the neutrino sector is the issue of leptonic CP violation. Current global oscillation data shows a mild preference for a large, potentially maximal value for the Dirac CP phase in the neutrino mixing matrix. In this letter, we point out that New Physics in the form of neutral-current like non-standard interactions with real couplings would likely yield a similar conclusion even if CP in the neutrino sector were conserved. Therefore, the claim for a discovery of leptonic CP violation will require a robust ability to test New Physics scenarios.

description: To improve the metrology in the field of III-V semiconductor based multi-junction solar cells (MJSC)
several national metrology institutes of European countries cooperate in the joint research project SolCell. One focus of
the project is the reduction of the calibration uncertainty for MJSC and the establishment of Differential Spectral
Responsivity (DSR) measurements as a primary calibration method to avoid expensive balloon flight based MJSC
calibrations. In this work the results of a comparative study of calibration facilities for MJSC is presented where sun
simulator calibrations are compared to Laser based Differential Spectral Responsivity (Laser-DSR) calibrations. Also the
linearity of the solar cell’s photo current in dependence of irradiation as well as the temperature dependence of the
device’s open circuit voltage have been investigated. A reduction of the measurement uncertainty of the spectral
responsivity of the samples from 1 % to 0.5 % was reached.
ULXs: Neutron Stars vs Black Holes

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) where the accretor is a neutron star rather than a black hole. We show that the recently-discovered example (M82 X-2) fits naturally into the simple picture of ULXs as beamed X-ray sources fed at super-Eddington rates, provided that its magnetic field is weaker ($\simeq 10^{11}{\rm G}$) than a new-born X-ray pulsar, as expected if there has been mass gain. Continuing accretion is likely to weaken the field to the point that pulsing stops, and make the system indistinguishable from a ULX containing a black hole. Accordingly we suggest that a significant fraction of all ULXs may actually contain neutron star accretors rather than black holes, reflecting the neutron-star fraction among their X-ray binary progenitors. We emphasize that neutron-star ULXs are likely to have {\it higher} apparent luminosities than black hole ULXs for a given mass transfer rate, as their tighter beaming outweighs their lower Eddington luminosities. This further increases the likely proportion of neutron-star accretors among all ULXs. Cygnus X-2 is probably a typical descendant of neutron-star ULXs, which may therefore ultimately end as millisecond pulsar binaries with massive white dwarf companions.

description: Since 2002, we have demonstrated the in-orbit performance of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells and
modules by Japanese small satellites. The MDS-1 satellite was the first satellite to verify the in-orbit radiation tolerance of
CIGS solar cells. The results suggested that CIGS solar cells do not need coverglasses, which can prevent damage from lowenergy
protons in orbit. We have been operating the Cubesat XI-V satellite for over nine years, since October 2005. A CIGS
cell module without a coverglass was mounted onto one of the surface planes, and the generation current of the module has
been monitored. The generation current trend from the CIGS module indicates no degradation over nine years in-orbit. This
flight data proves that the performance of CIGS cells remains constant, even without a coverglass, and these space
demonstrations support the potential for the use of CIGS solar cells in space. The SDS-1 and SOHLA-1 satellites
successfully demonstrated the electrical performance of CIGS solar cells and the packaging technology for flexible solar
cells for space applications.

description: The XXL Survey is the largest homogeneous survey carried out with XMM-Newton. Covering an area of 50 deg$^{2}$, the survey contains several hundred galaxy clusters out to a redshift of $\approx$2 above an X-ray flux limit of $\sim$5$\times10^{-15}$ erg cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$. This paper belongs to the first series of XXL papers focusing on the bright cluster sample. We investigate the luminosity-temperature (LT) relation for the brightest clusters detected in the XXL Survey, taking fully into account the selection biases. We investigate the form of the LT relation, placing constraints on its evolution. We have classified the 100 brightest clusters in the XXL Survey based on their measured X-ray flux. These 100 clusters have been analysed to determine their luminosity and temperature to evaluate the LT relation. We used three methods to fit the LT relation, with two of these methods providing a prescription to fully take into account the selection effects of the survey. We measure the evolution of the LT relation internally using the broad redshift range of the sample. Taking into account selection effects, we find a slope of the bolometric LT relation of B$_{\rm LT}=3.08\pm$0.15, steeper than the self-similar expectation (B$_{\rm LT}$=2). Our best-fit result for the evolution factor is $E(z)^{1.64\pm0.77}$, consistent with "strong self-similar" evolution where clusters scale self-similarly with both mass and redshift. However, this result is marginally stronger than "weak self-similar" evolution, where clusters scale with redshift alone. We investigate the sensitivity of our results to the assumptions made in our model, finding that using an external LT relation as a low-z baseline can have a profound effect on the measured evolution. However, more clusters are needed to break the degeneracy between the choice of likelihood model and mass-temperature relation on the derived evolution.

description: Current mismatch is a crucial limitation on the efficiency of tandem solar cells. In this work, current matching in a
double junction solar cell is directly observed by measuring the current-voltage (I-V) p rop erties of the tandem structure. This is
done while sensing the voltage at the tunneling junction (middle contact) on sp ecially designed device structures. A three-terminal
analy sis was p erformed on a GaAsP/SiGe tandem solar cell on a Si substrate. The middle contact is used to monitor the voltage
between the two sub-cells to calculate the voltage drop across each of the solar cells. A SPICE simulation was p erformed to verify
the measurement technique. Since there is no current extraction from this middle contact, an Ohmic characteristic is not essential.
The resulting I-V curves show whether one of the sub-cells is limiting the current or if the short circuit currents of the cells are
matched. This was done by variation in the sp ectrum of the incident light.
Hazard analysis of human--robot interactions with HAZOP--UML

description: New safety critical systems are about to appear in our everyday life: advanced robots able to interact with humans and perform tasks at home, in hospitals , or at work. A hazardous behavior of those systems, induced by failures or extreme environment conditions, may lead to catastrophic consequences. Well-known risk analysis methods used in other critical domains (e.g., avion-ics, nuclear, medical, transportation), have to be extended or adapted due to the non-deterministic behavior of those systems, evolving in unstructured environments. One major challenge is thus to develop methods that can be applied at the very beginning of the development process, to identify hazards induced by robot tasks and their interactions with humans. In this paper we present a method which is based on an adaptation of a hazard identification technique, HAZOP (Hazard Operability), coupled with a system description notation, UML (Unified Modeling Language). This systematic approach has been applied successfully in research projects, and is now applied by robot manufacturers. Some results of those studies are presented and discussed to explain the benefits and limits of our method.

description: For the solar concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) modules, a value of an “overall” cell-to-ambient
thermal resistance (denoted as specific thermal resistance rth) can be one of the main indicator characterizing
module design and performance. A methodology is proposed, at which the thermal properties of the CPV
modules are characterized indoors in darkened conditions. Specific thermal resistance is evaluated at thermal
loading of the modules at forward current flow. Forward voltage drop values serve as the cell temperature
indicators. The methodology combines DC measurements at thermal loading with fast I-V measurements, during
which cell temperature is kept constant due to material thermal capacity. Advantage of the proposed method
consists in possibility to obtain thermal parameters for modules of different design in stabilized and controllable
conditions. It means that direct comparison of the structural features can be carried out with allowing for heat
dissipation effectiveness. Four types of CPV module designs have been compared.

description: In this study, high-quality In0.16Ga0.84As epitaxial films can be achieved by employing the linear graded
buffer layer. The front electrodes with stripe shape were prepared for the cell devices. Additionally, to fabricate the
In0.16Ga0.84As solar cell with high efficiency, we prepared the front electrode patterns with various angles from 0° to
90° that defined as the included angles between the electrode and [110] direction of the GaAs wafer. As this included
angle was fixed at 45°, the lower conversion efficiency of In0.16Ga0.84As solar cell was measured to be 14.61%.
However, when the included angles were varied to 0° and 90°, the higher conversion efficiencies of In0.16Ga0.84As
solar cells can be enhanced to 16.34% and 16.58%, respectively. Obviously, with designing the included angles of 0°
and 90°, the hole carriers in the devices can be avoided to meet the dislocations in the epilayers efficiently, resulting
in the improvement of the conversion efficiency.

description: We aimed to detect a supernova (SN) shock breakout (SBO) with observations in time domain. The SBO marks the first escape of radiation from the blast wave that breaks through the photosphere of the star and launches the SN ejecta, and peaks in the ultraviolet and soft X-ray bands. The detection of a SBO allows determining the onset of the explosion with an accuracy from a few hours to a few seconds. Using the XRT and UVOT instruments onboard the Swift satellite we carried out a weekly cadenced, six months lasting monitoring of seven nearby (distance <50 Mpc) galaxies, namely NGC1084, NGC2207/IC2163, NGC2770, NGC4303/M61, NGC3147, NGC3690, NGC6754. We searched for variable/transient sources in the collected data. We found no evidence for a SN SBO event, but we discovered five objects located within the light of the sample galaxies that are variable in the X-ray and/or in the UV. Our sample galaxies are within the Universe volume that will be reached by the forthcoming advanced gravitational waves (GW) detectors (a-LIGO/a-Virgo), thus this work provides an example on how to carry out Swift surveys useful to detect the GW signal from SNe, and to detect counterparts to GW triggers.

description: Solid state cavity quantum electrodynamics is a rapidly advancing field which explores the frontiers of light-matter coupling. Plasmonic approaches are of particular interest in this field, since they carry the potential to squeeze optical modes to spaces significantly below the diffraction limit1,2, enhancing light-matter coupling. They further serve as an architecture to design ultra-fast, non-linear integrated circuits with smallest footprints3. Transition metal dichalcogenides are ideally suited as the active material in such circuits as they interact strongly with light at the ultimate monolayer limit4. Here, we implement a Tamm-plasmon-polariton structure, and study the coupling to a monolayer of WSe2, hosting highly stable excitons5. Exciton-Polariton formation at room temperature is manifested in the characteristic energy-momentum dispersion relation studied in photoluminescence, featuring an anti-crossing between the exciton and photon modes with a Rabi-splitting of 23.5 meV. Creating polaritonic quasi-particles in plasmonic architectures with atomic monolayers under ambient conditions is a crucial step towards compact, highly non-linear integrated photonic and polaritonic circuits6,7.

description: The effect of ion species in surface activated bonding has been investigated. First, we have used Ne, Ar,
Kr and Xe fast-atom-beam (FAB) in the surface activation of n-GaAs/n-GaAs bonding and clarified the impact of ion
species on the conductive property at the bonding interface. The relations among ion species, amorphous layer
thicknesses at the interface and current-voltage characteristic have been observed. Second, Au/n-GaAs Schottky diodes
have been prepared and the defects on the GaAs surface due to FAB irradiation have been detected. Admittance
spectroscopy method revealed the quantitative depth profile of defect density introduced by Ar and Kr-FAB irradiation.

description: (Abridged) Recent spectroscopic surveys have begun to explore the Galactic disk system outside the solar neighborhood on the basis of large data samples. In this way, they provide valuable information for testing spatial and temporal variations of disk structure kinematics and chemical evolution. We used a Gaussian mixture model algorithm, as a rigurous mathematical approach, to separate in the [Mg/Fe] vs. [Fe/H] plane a clean disk star subsample from the Gaia-ESO survey internal data release 2. We find that the sample is separated into five groups associated with major Galactic components; the metal-rich end of the halo, the thick disk, and three subgroups for the thin disk sequence. This is confirmed with a sample of red clump stars from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) survey. The two metal-intermediate and metal-rich groups of the thin disk decomposition ([Fe/H]>-0.25 dex) highlight a change in the slope at solar metallicity. This holds true at different radial regions. The distribution of Galactocentric radial distances of the metal-poor part of the thin disk ([Fe/H]

III-V-based Multi-junction Solar Cells, Concentrator Solar Cells and Space Solar Cells

description: 31st European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1384-1391
description: Starting on June 2011, NGCPV has been the first coordinated project between the European Commission and Japanese NEDO in order to advance in the science and technology of concentrator photovoltaics (CPV). Research has covered all relevant areas in CPV, from solar cells to complete systems, including multijunction solar cells, novel solar cell concepts utilizing nanostructures, advanced optics and modules, thermal management, reliability and modeling at all the stages of the CPV chain, rating and round robin schemes and the development of characterization tools for cells, modules and systems (outdoor and indoor). Ending in November 2014, the NGCPV project has attained some remarkable results, such as the manufacturing of a 44.4% world record efficiency triple junction solar cell (by Sharp Corp.) and the development of a 15 kW CPV system (by Daido, BSQ and UPM) with a DC efficiency of 28% under CSOC, which is the highest reported in the world at system level. In this paper we summarize these and other relevant results concerning project activities such as the investigation of novel buffers for growing III-V materials on silicon, novel ~1eV materials for manufacturing quad-junction solar cells, the development of accurate models to forecast the electricity production in CPV plants and novel advanced optical designs for CPV modules, among others.
title: A New Moth species in Europe: Noorda blitealis Walker, 1859 on the Island of Crete (Lepidoptera, Crambidae)

description: Noorda blitealis Walker, 1859 was reported from the island of Crete and constitutes a new species in the Eu-ropean fauna. We present a description of the morphology of the species, along with diagrams of its sexual organs. Thetaxonomic status of members of the genus Noorda are briefly discussed. Molecular analysis suggests that the Cretanspecimen has close affinities with examples from Israel and that these are significantly different to examples from else-where. The Cretan moth probably represents a separate (new) species, but further study is required to confirm this.

Magnetocrystalline anisotropy of Fe and Co slabs and clusters on SrTiO$\_3$ by first-principles

description: In this work, we present a detailed theoretical investigation of the electronic and magnetic properties of ferromagnetic slabs and clusters deposited on SrTiO$\_3$ via first-principles, with a particular emphasis on the magneto-crystalline anisotropy (MCA). We found that in the case of Fe films deposited on SrTiO$\_3$ the effect of the interface is to quench the MCA whereas for Cobalt we observe a change of sign of the MCA from in-plane to out-of-plane as compared to the free surface. We also find a strong enhancement of MCA for small clusters upon deposition on a SrTiO$\_3$ substrate. The hybridization between the substrate and the $d$-orbitals of the cluster extending in-plane for Fe and out-of-plane for Co is at the origin of this enhancement of MCA. As a consequence, we predict that the Fe nanocrystals (even rather small) should be magnetically stable and are thus good potential candidates for magnetic storage devices.

description: In this paper flexible CdTe solar cells made by vacuum evaporation on ultra thin glass and on two
different polyimides are presented. Ultra-thin glass is a very promising flexible substrate for CdTe solar cells in
superstrate configuration because of it superior transparency. Cell preparation was optimized for each different
substrate. Efficiencies exceeding 11% on polyimide and 12% on ultra-thin flexible glass have been achieved.
