description: We show that the intensity of pumped states near Weyl point is different when pumped with left- and right-handed circular polarized light, which leads to a special circular dichroism (CD) in time-dependent angle resolved photoemission spectra (ARPES). We derive the expression for the CD of time-dependent ARPES, which is directly related to the chirality of Weyl fermions. Based on the above derivation, we further propose a method to determine the chirality for a given Weyl point from the CD of time-dependent ARPES. The corresponding CD spectra for TaAs has then been calculated from the first principle, which can be compared with the future experiments.

description: The deregulation and liberalization of power market allows greater integration of renewable power
resources at all stages of electrical networks but it makes the balance between supply and demand more difficult to
reach. Thus, efficient and reliable communications between electrical network nodes must be guaranteed in order to
dynamically use the power system as optimally as possible. The electrical protection decisions and real time pricing
are among the categories of power system information. However, these categories have different priorities depending
on their importance in the whole power system. Communication system must then take into consideration such
requirements. This paper proposes the use of wireless links to transmit these information differentially protected by
using non-uniform hierarchical quadrature amplitude modulation (16- QAM) where high (low) reliable symbols are
assigned to critical (basic) information.

description: This paper is concerned with the solution of large-scale linear discrete ill-posed problems with error-contaminated data. Tikhonov regularization is a popular approach to determine meaningful approximate solutions of such problems. The choice of regularization matrix in Tikhonov regularization may significantly affect the quality of the computed approximate solution. This matrix should be chosen to promote the recovery of known important features of the desired solution, such as smoothness and monotonicity. We describe a novel approach to determine regularization matrices with desired properties by solving a matrix nearness problem. The constructed regularization matrix is the closest matrix in the Frobenius norm with a prescribed null space to a given matrix. Numerical examples illustrate the performance of the regularization matrices so obtained.

description: The phenomenon of $B^0_q-\bar B^0_q$ mixing ($q=d,s$) provides a sensitive probe for physics beyond the Standard Model. We explore the corresponding space for New Physics left through the current data, having a careful look at analyses of the Unitarity Triangle that are needed for the Standard Model predictions of the $B_q$ mixing parameters. In particular, we explore the impact of tensions between inclusive and exclusive determinations of the CKM matrix elements $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$. Moreover, we focus on the angle $γ$ of the Unitarity Triangle, comparing measurements from $B\to DK$ and $B\toππ$, $ρπ$, $ρρ$ decays, where the latter are typically interpreted in terms of the angle $α$. We discuss various scenarios and present the corresponding state-of-the-art constraints on the New Physics parameters of $B_q^0-\bar B_q^0$ mixing. We point out that these results have an interesting application in the analysis of rare $B_q^0\to μ^+μ^-$ decays, allowing us to minimise the impact of CKM parameters in the search for New Physics. In view of the high-precision era, we make future projections. Interestingly, we find that for the extraction of the New Physics parameters in the $B_d$ system the determination of the apex of the Unitarity Triangle results in a key limiting factor. By contrast, the corresponding impact is negligible for the $B_s$ system, making it a promising candidate to reveal sources of New Physics.

PV as Building Material Component (focus on technical issues)

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 3714-3719
description: Building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) is a very promising technology for decentralized, locally clean
energy supply in urban areas, especially in the concept of plus-energy houses. In this work we demonstrate the potential
of a BIPV-system in a hypothetical case-study office building located in Oldenburg in Northern Germany. The solar
energy yield of PV-systems based on amorphous silicon (a-Si) thin-film solar modules with both opaque and semitransparent
format are compared with a reference system based on poly-crystalline silicon modules. In addition, two
major side effects of the BIPV-system on the building’s performance are analyzed: on the one hand the heat transfer
across the triple-glazed BIPV-façade is investigated. Questions of concern are: What effect do façade-integrated semitransparent
thin-film solar cells have on the temperature in the building? What temperature do solar cells reach during
operation when integrated into the façade? Does the position of the solar cell within the triple-glazed composition of
semi-transparent façades have an influence on the cell temperature and on the room temperature? Another side-effect
of the BIPV-system addressed in this work deals with the lighting conditions in the building. In this context the color
scheme as well as the illuminance level are investigated and compared with standard-requirements for offices.

description: To explore the end users’ experiences of foot drop electrical stimulator use for people with neurological conditions. Electronic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Scopus, and Google Scholar were searched in March 2022. Included articles were quality assessed using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) checklist. A thematic synthesis approach was used to synthesise the review findings and establish analytical themes. A Confidence in the Evidence from Reviews of Qualitative Research (CERQual) Approach was used to assess the level of confidence of analytical themes. Seven qualitative studies were included with 67 participants with stroke and multiple sclerosis. The outcomes to foot drop stimulator use were enhanced walking ability, independence, confidence, and social participation. Main barriers to use were device aesthetics, usability challenges, trustworthiness of device in complex environments, and cost of the device. A conceptual model was created illustrating the barriers and outcomes in managing foot drop. We recommend that the outcomes to continued use of foot drop electrical stimulators are carefully considered against the barriers. Our conceptual model may be useful to guide clinical conversations around the possible use of FES for managing foot drop in people with multiple sclerosis and stroke.Implications for rehabilitationThe key outcomes to foot drop electrical stimulator use were enhanced walking ability, improved independence and confidence, and enhanced social participation.The main barriers to foot drop electrical stimulator use were device aesthetics, usability challenges, trustworthiness of device in complex environments, and cost of the device.We created a conceptual model that may be useful to guide clinical conversations around the possible use of FES for managing foot drop in people with multiple sclerosis and stroke.

Multiband $d-p$ model and self-doping in the electronic structure of Ba$_2$IrO$_4$

description: We introduce and investigate the multiband $d-p$ model describing a IrO$_4$ layer (such as realized in Ba$_2$IrO$_4$) where all $34$ orbitals per unit cell are partly occupied, i.e., $t_{2g}$ and $e_g$ orbitals at iridium and $2p$ orbitals at oxygen ions. The model takes into account anisotropic iridium-oxygen $d-p$ and oxygen-oxygen $p-p$ hopping processes, crystal-field splittings, spin-orbit coupling, and the on-site Coulomb interactions, both at iridium and at oxygen ions. We show that the predictions based on assumed idealized ionic configuration (with $n_0=5+4\times 6=29$ electrons per IrO$_4$ unit) do not explain well the independent \textit{ab initio} data and the experimental data for Ba$_2$IrO$_4$. Instead we find that the total electron density in the $d-p$ states is smaller, $n=29-x0$). When we fix $x=1$, the predictions for the $d-p$ model become more realistic and weakly insulating antiferromagnetic ground state with the moments lying within IrO$_2$ planes along (110) direction is found, in agreement with experiment and \textit{ab initio} data. We also show that: (i) holes delocalize over the oxygen orbitals and the electron density at iridium ions is enhanced, hence (ii) their $e_g$ orbitals are occupied by more than one electron and have to be included in the multiband $d-p$ model describing iridates.

Chain reconfiguration in active noise

description: In a typical single molecule experiment, dynamics of an unfolded proteins is studied by determining the reconfiguration time using long-range Forster resonance energy transfer where the reconfiguration time is the characteristic decay time of the position correlation between two residues of the protein. In this paper we theoretically calculate the reconfiguration time for a single flexible polymer in presence of active noise. The study suggests that though the MSD grows faster, the chain reconfiguration is always slower in presence of long-lived active noise with exponential temporal correlation. Similar behavior is observed for a worm like semi-flexible chain and a Zimm chain. However it is primarily the characteristic correlation time of the active noise and not the strength that controls the increase in the reconfiguration time. In a nutshell, such active noise makes the polymer to move faster but the correlation loss between the monomers becomes slower.

description: We investigate shock structures driven by merger events in high-resolution simulations that result in a galaxy with a virial mass M ~ 1e12 Msol. We find that the sizes and morphologies of the internal shocks resemble remarkably well those of the newly-detected class of odd radio circles (ORCs). This would highlight a so-far overlooked mechanism to form radio rings, shells and even more complex structures around elliptical galaxies. Mach numbers of M = 2-3 for such internal shocks are in agreement with the spectral indices of the observed ORCs. We estimate that ~5 percent of galaxies could undergo merger events which occasionally lead to such prominent structures within the galactic halo during their lifetime, explaining the low number of observed ORCs. At the time when the shock structures are matching the physical sizes of the observed ORCs, the central galaxies are typically classified as early-type galaxies, with no ongoing star formation, in agreement with observational findings. Although the energy released by such mergers could potentially power the observed radio luminosity already in Milky-Way-like halos, our predicted luminosity from a simple, direct shock acceleration model is much smaller than the observed one. Considering the estimated number of candidates from our cosmological simulations and the higher observed energies, we suggest that the proposed scenario is more likely for halo masses around 1e13 Msol in agreement with the observed stellar masses of the galaxies at the center of ORCs. Such shocks might be detectable with next generation X-ray instruments like the Line Emission Mapper (LEM).

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 3698-3700
description: Nowadays, electrical energy consumption and energy
prices have increased. Thus, the microgrids (Gs) relying
on renewable energy receive more attention from consumers.
New neighborhoods opt for green philosophy where most of
the consumed energy comes from renewable generation. Indeed,
each residence could be supplied from its own solar and wind
generation or from centrally located power plant. However, the
latters present many problems in efficiency and reliability. This
paper proposes a new approach based on a dynamic assignment
of renewable energy tokens (DARET) algorithm to add a smart
behavior to Gs. The proposed algorithm allows residential Gs
of a small geographic area to dynamically collaborate and share
their individual green energy generation in order to supply their
overall load. The sharing is dynamically updated over the shortterm
by exchanging data, in terms of individual demands and
supplies, between the consumers over wireless links.

description: This review aimed to synthesize knowledge about multi-criteria decision analysis methods for supporting rehabilitation service design and delivery decisions, including: (1) describing the use of these methods within rehabilitation, (2) identifying decision types that can be supported by these methods, (3) describing client and family involvement, and (4) identifying implementation considerations. We conducted a rapid review in collaboration with a knowledge partner, searching four databases for peer-reviewed articles reporting primary research. We extracted relevant data from included studies and synthesized it descriptively and with conventional content analysis. We identified 717 records, of which 54 met inclusion criteria. Multi-criteria decision analysis methods were primarily used to understand the strength of clients’ and clinicians’ preferences (n = 44), and five focused on supporting decision making. Shared decision making with stakeholders was evident in only two studies. Clients and families were mostly engaged in data collection and sometimes in selecting the relevant criteria. Good practices for supporting external validity were inconsistently reported. Implementation considerations included managing cognitive complexity and offering authentic choices. Multi-criteria decision analysis methods are promising for better understanding client and family preferences and priorities across rehabilitation professions, contexts, and caseloads. Further work is required to use these methods in shared decision making, for which increased use of qualitative methods and stakeholder engagement is recommended. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONMulti-criteria decision analysis methods are promising for evidence-based, shared decision making for rehabilitation.However, most studies to date have focused on estimating stakeholder preferences, not supporting shared decision making.Cognitive complexity and modelling authentic and realistic decision choices are major barriers to implementation.Stakeholder-engagement and qualitative methods are recommended to address these barriers.

description: A BIPV research facility ‘SolarBEAT’ has been initiated in the Netherlands by the Solar Energy Application Centre (SEAC). This facility enables and supports research and development of new products in the field of BIPV, solar thermal and PVT. Projects are carried out by consortia in which research institutes and companies work together. The SolarBEAT facility is a cooperation between SEAC, the branch organization Holland Solar and the TU Eindhoven and is located on a large south oriented roof with a clean horizon. The roof is equipped with a variety of high quality sensors and measurement equipment in order to enable research projects on BIPV and PVT in a realistic outdoor setting. IR-thermography and outdoor Electroluminescence (EL) are developed for thermal research and reliability and durability monitoring over longer periods. We define three new effective ways of analyzing results, which can and will be applied to all BIPV-prototypes. They are an irradiance stamp plot (figure 6), thermal stamp plot (figure 9) and integrated-NOCT plot (figure 10). The performance of the first project in SolarBEAT can be understood quite well by comparing it to the thermal model that we have developed for BIPV-products. The quantitative heating up of the various panels as a function of air gap width, position in the setup, and weather conditions can be understood.

description: The origin of dark energy driving the accelerated expansion of the universe is still mysterious. We explore the possibility that dark energy fluctuates, resulting in spatial correlations. Due to these fluctuations, the Hubble rate itself becomes a fluctuating quantity. We discuss the effect this has on measurements of type Ia supernovae, which are used to constrain the luminosity distance. We show that the luminosity distance is affected by spatial correlations in several ways. First, the luminosity distance becomes dressed by the fluctuations, thereby differing from standard $Λ$CDM. Second, angular correlations become visible in the two-point correlation function of the luminosity distance. To investigate the latter we construct the angular power spectrum of luminosity distance fluctuations. We then perform a forecast for two supernova surveys, the ongoing Dark Energy Survey (DES) and the upcoming Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), and compare this effect with relativistic lensing effects from perturbed $Λ$CDM. We find that the signal can rise above the lensing effects and that LSST could test this effect for a large part of the parameter space. As an example, a specific realisation of such a scenario is that quantum fluctuations of some field in the early universe imprint spatial correlations with a predictable form in the dark energy density today. In this case, the Hubble rate fluctuates due to the intrinsic quantum nature of the dark energy density field. We study whether the signal of this specific model would be measurable, and conclude that testing this model with LSST would be challenging. However, taking into account a speed of sound $c_s<1$ of the dark energy fluid can make this model observable.

First, we obtain this result for scattering of a plane wave by a symmetric spherical or infinite cylindrical structure of an arbitrary radius. Then, we generalize it to an arbitrary finite obstacle. Importantly, the result is true for any polarization, any angle of incidence of the plane wave and any type of the structure (homogeneous, stratified, or with smoothly variable refractive index). The corresponding maximal partial cross- section is a universal quantity, which does not depend on the optical constants of the scatterer its radius, and even its shape.

description: We study characteristic electronic structures in an extended martini lattice model and propose its materialization in $π$-electron networks constructed by designated chemisorption on graphene and silicene. By investigating the minimal tight-binding model, we reveal rich electronic structures tuned by the ratio of hopping parameters, ranging from the band insulator to the unconventional gapless semiconductor. Remarkably, the unconventional gapless semiconductor is characterized by a flat band at the Fermi level. Further, the density functional theory calculations for candidate materials reveal that the characteristic electronic structures can be realized by designated chemisorption or chemical substitution on graphene and silicene, and that the electronic structure near the Fermi level is tunable by the choice of the atomic species of adsorbed atoms. Our results open the way to search exotic electronic structures and their functionalities induced by an extended martini lattice.

PV as Building Material Component (focus on technical issues)

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 3720-3725
description: Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) systems comprise any system where photovoltaic (PV) components are
incorporated into the building envelope, thereby replacing traditional construction elements of roofs or facades for
example, and hence ensuring their functions (water tightness, esthetics, mechanical strength etc.). A significant advantage
of BIPV compared to non-integrated systems is the lack of the need to allocate neither land nor additional mounting
structures and to favor local use of energy (self-consumption solutions at building or district level). As a drawback, the
operating temperature of BIPV systems are usually higher compared to free standing PV systems because of limited
cooling (1,2). Maintaining or reducing the operating temperature of PV elements is important during the photovoltaic
energy conversion process since it influences the efficiency, the decline in performance over time and the lifetime of the
PV system.
In this paper, we present and analyze experimental results of the monitoring of ten BIPV systems realized within the
“Performance BIPV” project (partners CSTB, CEA, CNRS, Transénergie and Cythelia) and by EURAC in three
European locations. The aim of our study is to investigate and compare the operative temperature issue in different BIPV
applications. Each BIPV system is instrumented to record component temperatures (at the backside of PV modules),
electrical production and environmental conditions. The monitored BIPV systems dataset is compared with two ground
mounted PV plants located in Bolzano, which are monitored by EURAC since 2010 (3–5).
The variation of PV module temperatures rise above ambient temperature is studied as a function of the global
irradiation. Based on measured data, an empirical equivalent thermal resistance between PV modules and ambient
temperature is considered for various time scales based on a static model.
An overview on empirical equivalent thermal resistance values for each analyzed system is provided, resulting in a range
from 0.0297 to 0.0397 for most of the BIPV systems and from 0.0249 to 0.0291 for the not-integrated PV systems.
As further studies, collaborative projects will be launched between some partners in order to propose solutions to improve
the thermal operating conditions of BIPV systems.

PV as Building Material Component (focus on technical issues)

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 3726-3732
description: In this paper, the authors show the results of thermal characterization of glass-glass photovoltaic facade
installed at ENEA Research Center of Portici, carried out by means of an outdoor measurement campaign. The façade
with integrated PV glass-glass modules was developed to replace a conventional glazed façade, shadowed by using
an internal louvres system. Replacing standard envelope building technological systems with façade integrated BIPV
allows for savings in materials and energy consumption, and can offer interesting result from the architectural point
of view. The goal of the study was experimenting with architectural solutions with PV, and assessing the related
energy performance. This is a crucial topic in the context of a wide use of BIPV solutions in which the thermal
behavior of the PV component should be verified also in order to meet the national regulations on energy
consumption.
In particular, the scope was assessing the thermal performance of a PV glazed façade in the typical climate of
Southern Italy, where Portici is located. The results of the energy thermal estimation are reliable, because they have
been got my means of outdoor experiments, with dynamic testing and analysis activities carried out under real
weather conditions.

The inverse thermal spin-orbit torque and the relation of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction to ground-state energy currents

description: Using the Kubo linear-response formalism we derive expressions to calculate the heat current generated by magnetization dynamics in magnets with broken inversion symmetry and spin-orbit interaction (SOI). The effect of producing heat currents by magnetization dynamics constitutes the Onsager reciprocal of the thermal spin-orbit torque (TSOT), i.e., the generation of torques on the magnetization due to temperature gradients. We find that the energy current driven by magnetization dynamics contains a contribution from the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), which needs to be subtracted from the Kubo linear response of the energy current in order to extract the heat current. We show that the expressions of the DMI coefficient can be derived elegantly from the DMI energy current. Guided by formal analogies between the Berry phase theory of DMI on the one hand and the modern theory of orbital magnetization on the other hand we are led to an interpretation of the latter in terms of energy currents as well. Based on \textit{ab-initio} calculations we investigate the heat current driven by magnetization dynamics in Mn/W(001) magnetic bilayers. We predict that fast domain walls drive strong ITSOT heat currents.

description: PV systems producers are looking into building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) as promising area for
PV market growth, although in construction sector it is still considered as an option dedicated only for exclusive
solutions due to installation complexity and high additional costs. It is clear that without solving main issues
hampering BIPV acceptance by architects and construction sector it will be difficult to expect fast growth of this PV
market segment. SMART-FLeX project is proposing integrated solution for building design with PV installation,
through introducing specialized building design software compatible with standard for architects’ software,
automated production of desired BIPV products and building envelope elements followed by easy installation into the
building. For that SMART-FLeX project aims to demonstrate multi-functional glass/glass PV building element as
plug & play AC device for safe and easy installation into building electricity system. Demonstration of such device
will cover both levels: flexibility and adaptability of automated manufacturing process for customized PV building
elements according architectural solution and integration of SMART-FLeX BIPV product into the building envelope.
Exact finite-dimensional description for networks of globally coupled spiking neurons

description: We consider large networks of globally coupled spiking neurons and derive an exact low-dimensional description of their collective dynamics in the thermodynamic limit. Individual neurons are described by the Ermentrout-Kopell canonical model that can be excitable or tonically spiking, and interact with other neurons via pulses. Utilizing the equivalence of the quadratic integrate- and-fire and the theta neuron formulations, we first derive the dynamical equations in terms of the Kuramoto-Daido order parameters (Fourier modes of the phase distribution) and relate them to two biophysically relevant macroscopic observables, the firing rate and the mean voltage. For neurons driven by Cauchy white noise or for Cauchy-Lorentz distributed input currents, we adapt the results by Cestnik and Pikovsky [arXiv:2207.02302 (2022)] and show that for arbitrary initial conditions the collective dynamics reduces to six dimensions. We also prove that in this case the dynamics asymptotically converges to a two-dimensional invariant manifold first discovered by Ott and Antonsen. For identical, noise-free neurons, the dynamics reduces to three dimensions, becoming equivalent to the Watanabe-Strogatz description. We illustrate the exact six-dimensional dynamics outside the invariant manifold by calculating nontrivial basins of different asymptotic regimes in a bistable situation.

Frances Kellor and the "masculine political machine" 1903 - 1920
Creators: name: Platt, Margaret
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: This thesis explores four under-examined episodes from the life and career of activist Frances Kellor (1873-1952). It argues that historians who have covered her work have generally been too ready to classify her as a ‘typical Progressive,’ to the detriment of her full humanity and contribution. It illustrates, from primary source materials, the realities of political life for women attempting to make public careers in the transitional period between nineteenth century ministering angels of the “mother heart” and a new generation of graduate-trained women who sought roles in government. Kellor’s understanding of the role of politics is demonstrated, along with the political insight and skill she brought to bear against institutional barriers to women’s participation in public life. This thesis also demonstrates the misogyny directed against women of ambition by their contemporaries in this period, which has sometimes been reproduced, if unwittingly, by subsequent historians.

Distributions of covariances as a window into the operational regime of neuronal networks

description: Massively parallel recordings of spiking activity in cortical networks show that covariances vary widely across pairs of neurons. Their low average is well understood, but an explanation for the wide distribution in relation to the static (quenched) disorder of the connectivity in recurrent random networks was so far elusive. We here derive a finite-size mean-field theory that reduces a disordered to a highly symmetric network with fluctuating auxiliary fields. The exposed analytical relation between the statistics of connections and the statistics of pairwise covariances shows that both, average and dispersion of the latter, diverge at a critical coupling. At this point, a network of nonlinear units transits from regular to chaotic dynamics. Applying these results to recordings from the mammalian brain suggests its operation close to this edge of criticality.
