description: Photovoltaic-modules are exposed to static mechanical loads, such as snow and wind loads during
conventional use. Wind also triggers oscillations. It is obvious that the dynamic loads are more likely to cause well
known fatigue of materials even with little amplitudes, especially of brittle behaving PV-cells and ductile copper
connecting wires.
The dynamic behavior of PV-modules depending on the UV-induced aging of the ethylene vinyl acetate
encapsulation is analyzed in outdoor strain-measurements. A detailed numeric model of a PV-module was created
and mechanical loads for measurements in inaccessible regions in the laminate were calculated. The dependence from
aging condition of encapsulation polymer shown in outdoor-results could be reproduced in the model.

description: In this paper we present new AAOmega spectroscopy of 254 galaxies within a 30' radius around Abell 3888. We combine these data with the existing redshifts measured in a one degree radius around the cluster and performed a substructure analysis. We confirm 71 member galaxies within the core of A3888 and determine a new average redshift and velocity dispersion for the cluster of 0.1535 +\- 0.0009 and 1181 +\- 197 km/s, respectively. The cluster is elongated along an East-West axis and we find the core is bimodal along this axis with two sub-groups of 26 and 41 members detected. Our results suggest that A3888 is a merging system putting to rest the previous conjecture about the morphological status of the cluster derived from X-ray observations. In addition to the results on A3888 we also present six newly detected galaxy over-densities in the field, three of which we classify as new galaxy clusters.

description: By recreating respectively simulating real situations in experimental setups a catalogue was established,
which describes occurring handling situations and the impact of an inappropriate handling. Therefore a test
procedure was developed, which illustrates the effect on the electrical power of solar modules now and in the future.
At the University of Applied Sciences Munich these types of defects can be illustrated by diverse electroluminescence
images. For the simulation of defects monocrystalline and polycrystalline silicon modules were used. Each defect
is attributed to the phases of storage, manual transport and already installed generator. The real situation is schematically
explained and graphically out-lined. Due to the simulation of the handling situations it could be established
that most of the situations, in which the force acts perpendicular to the surface, cause (in part significant) damages in
the cell structure. Based on experiences of other studies it can be assumed that the aging process adulterates the already
existing cracks and the electrical power decreases. In situations, in which the force acts parallel to the wafer
surface, slight damage to the frame is the result of the test. Therefore situations should be avoided, in which the force
acts perpendicular to the surface of the module.

description: Within the framework of the research project ESOSWA (“Improvement of efficiency of solar modules under oblique and low
light conditions”, funded by the BMBF, German Ministry of Education and Research), the Cologne University of Applied
Sciences is conducting a detailed investigation on different textured module covers to increase the energy yield of solarsystems
under unfavorable conditions.
Using textured cover surfaces for PV-modules seems to be an appropriate answer to improve the performance of modules
under oblique light conditions. As opposed to earlier studies [1], this paper investigates the influence of the optical behavior
of textured covers on the energy yield of PV systems as a function of module orientation and module location. Additionally,
there is a need to develop a simulation-model for textured surfaces that can be implemented into currently used forecasting
programs.
In a first step, the analyzed deep textured cover glass was compared to a standard solar glass. For this purpose, modules with
and without deep surface texture were measured under different incident angles in the university’s testing facility. In a second
step, the results of the measurements were used to simulate the enhancement of the energy yield for different European
locations by using the textured glass cover. The simulations were realized with the software INSEL for all azimuth and tilt
angles and took long-term diffuse and direct solar radiation data of Cologne, Germany, into account.
The simulations of the energy yield of textured surfaces in comparison to standard solar glass show increases for all module
orientations. For the location Cologne, Germany, with an orientation to the west or east and a tilt angle of 40°, the module
with the textured surface showed a higher annual energy yield of 5.8 % compared to a standard solar glass module. The
energy yield increases to 7.6 % for a north oriented module.

description: Within this contribution it is dealt with strength of float glass with respect to PV thin film processing.
Three thin film technologies were investigated with respect to the influence of the deposition and laser scribing process
on the strength of the glass surface. Two superstrate technologies with a deposition temperature below and around glass
temperature of glass were investigated. One substrate technology with a temperature around glass temperature of glass
was investigated. Results will show that the deposition process in terms of coating as well as temperature profile within
the process can have large influence on the strength of glass. The investigated high temperature technologies increased
the strength whereas the low temperature processes decreased strength. However, it was also found that the scattering of
strength values was influenced either in a negative or positive direction leading to a higher or lower probability of failure
of a solar module. Several mounting setups were modeled and simulated in a mechanical finite element model with a test
load of 2,400 Pa. In summary, the right combination of strength, glass orientation and mounting setup can lead to a better
mechanical reliability.

We denote the variation in single-Sérsic index with wavelength as $\mathcal{N}$, likewise for effective radius we use $\mathcal{R}$. We find that most galaxies with a substantial disc, even those with no discernable bulge, display a high value of $\mathcal{N}$. The increase in Sérsic index to longer wavelengths is therefore intrinsic to discs, apparently resulting from radial variations in stellar population and/or dust reddening. Similarly, low values of $\mathcal{R}$ ($

description: Light trapping via surface patterning of PV module frontsheets is a well-known technology to increase
conversion efficiencies. This study examines the effect of surface patterning on energy output of c-Si PV modules for
patterned poly-carbonate films adhered onto glass frontsheets of the modules. The patterned films were found to
improve energy generation over a range of incidence angles. PV module performance as a function of incident angle
for patterned films was compared against that with un-patterned films, as well as without films (control). An estimate
of outdoor energy yield was also calculated using recorded irradiance data and solar position data from three sample
days in Denver, USA. Patterned films provided up to 1% increase in energy yield compared with a control without
film.

description: The soiling of photovoltaic (PV) modules is an important issue regarding PV module power output.
Depending on the environmental conditions, the different surface structures and anti-reflection coatings, which are
applied on the glass in order to increase the annual gain of a PV module, may turn non-effective and glass
transmittance may decrease below the level of unstructured or uncoated glass. Former investigations revealed
enormous decreases in efficiency due to heavy soiling, up to -80% within a period of 6 month. Therefore, anti-soiling
coatings, which aim to reduce these losses, are a very interesting and promising topic.
The market for anti-soiling coatings was screened. Different commercialy available anti-soiling coatings are
investigated regarding their functionality, their initial anti-soiling efficiency as well as in terms of weathering
stability. A profitability analysis for a simulated 10 MW PV power plant is implemented in regard to the anti-soiling
yield gain. The coated PV glazings show different susceptibilities to the soiling test methods. This indicates a
variation in wettability of the coatings, monitored by contact angle tests during the intercourse of the study.

reduce their module manufacturing cost down to the level of conventional products. The ACA bonding process was
realized during the module lamination process simultaneously. Two types of cells are used, EWT and back junction. Full
size modules with 60 cells have been developed. The CTM loss of the module with EWT and back junction cells are
respectively 0.23% and 2.8%. Mini-modules of 4 to 6 cells were made and their TC reliability were evaluated. The loss of
peak power of the optimized module was less than 1% after 200 cycles.

description: Recent advances in laser technology allow us to follow electronic motion at its natural time-scale with ultra-fast time resolution, leading the way towards attosecond physics experiments of extreme precision. In this work, we assess the use of tailored pumps in order to enhance (or reduce) some given features of the probe absorption (for example, absorption in the visible range of otherwise transparent samples). This type of manipulation of the system response could be helpful for its full characterization, since it would allow us to visualize transitions that are dark when using unshaped pulses. In order to investigate these possibilities, we perform first a theoretical analysis of the non-equilibrium response function in this context, aided by one simple numerical model of the Hydrogen atom. Then, we proceed to investigate the feasibility of using time-dependent density-functional theory as a means to implement, theoretically, this absorption-optimization idea, for more complex atoms or molecules. We conclude that the proposed idea could in principle be brought to the laboratory: tailored pump pulses can excite systems into light-absorbing states. However, we also highlight the severe numerical and theoretical difficulties posed by the problem: large-scale non-equilibrium quantum dynamics are cumbersome, even with TDDFT, and the shortcomings of state-of-the-art TDDFT functionals may still be serious for these out-of-equilibrium situations.

description: Multi-agent models often describe populations segregated either in the physical space, i.e. subdivided in metapopulations, or in the ecology of opinions, i.e. partitioned in echo chambers. Here we show how the interplay between homophily and social influence controls the emergence of both kinds of segregation in a simple model of mobile agents, endowed with a continuous opinion variable. In the model, physical proximity determines a progressive convergence of opinions but differing opinions result in agents moving away from each others. This feedback between mobility and social dynamics determines to the onset of a stable dynamical metapopulation scenario where physically separated groups of like-minded individuals interact with each other through the exchange of agents. The further introduction of confirmation bias in social interactions, defined as the tendency of an individual to favor opinions that match his own, leads to the emergence of echo chambers where different opinions can coexist also within the same group. We believe that the model may be of interest to researchers investigating the origin of segregation in the offline and online world.

description: MWT cell and module technology has shown to result in modules with a higher power output than Hpattern
modules and to be suitable for use with thin and fragile cells. In this work, the use of low-cost module
materials and their effect on module performance and reliability has been assessed. These materials include a
conductive back-sheet patterned by milling with no silver plating at the contacts on the foil and no isolation coating
on the copper and a low-silver content conductive adhesive. The sensitivity of module performance for the anticorrosion
coating on the copper of the conductive back-sheet is measured, as is the reliability in climate chamber
testing of mini-modules made with these materials. The results show that these low cost materials can be used to
manufacture module with good performance and reliability. Options are given for further cost reduction.

description: Various multilayer backsheet materials were selected and analysed by ultraviolet visible near infrared
spectroscopy (UV/VIS/NIR), infrared spectroscopy in attenuated total reflection mode (IR-ATR), differential
scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and
monotonic tensile testing. The hemispherical solar reflectance of the white pigmented backsheets was ranging from
0.702 to 0.838. By Infrared spectroscopy and DSC the polymeric materials of the various layers were identified.
Furthermore it was shown for the thermoplastic EVA layers (inner surface of polyester backsheets), that two different
EVA grades with vinyl acetate (VA) contents of 7 %m and 17 %m are used. By TGA a content of inorganic fillers and
pigments from about 6 %m to more than 20 %m was detected. The highest Young’s modulus was found in
polyvinylfluoride based multilayers while the lowest values were detected for polyamide based structures. Depending
on the backsheet type softening was revealed in the service relevant temperature range (from -50 to 100 °C).
Significant differences in the thermo mechanical behaviour were also observable in the PV module lamination
temperature range (from 100 to 160 °C).

including the solar path in the sky (incident angle), the position of observer (view angle), the module inclination
angle, the weather condition, the spectrum distribution and the glass surface morphology. We provide the method
with critical parameters for evaluating the specification of anti-reflection glass for high efficiency PV module.

description: To ensure the long-term insulation of back sheets of photovoltaic modules under electrical stress partial
discharge (PD) tests are performed. The relevant standard specifications IEC 60270 and IEC 61730-2 define the
current state of the test performed on single samples of the back sheet inserted in a special electrode configuration.
Up to now it is not well-understood, whether the results can be transferred to the final product of a PV module in all
cases. Therefore the goal of this investigation is the development of a test method to perform PD measurements on a
factory built PV module. In a first step relative small electrodes corresponding to the standard specification IEC
60243-1 are used as counter electrodes to scan piecewise the back side of a module. But due to the extent of the
module it is difficult to locate possible weak point or defects. To investigate larger areas or even the complete PV
module at once a counter electrode consisting of salt water is used, which is able to adapt perfectly to the unevenness
of the back side of the module. The results of these measurements reveal that PD tests of complete PV modules are in
principle possible.

description: The deposition of a film with self-cleaning and anti-reflective properties on the surface of the modules
reduces the soiling losses and facilitates cleaning when it rains. In this paper we present a comparative study of the
performance of photovoltaic modules with and without coating in order to determine the soiling losses as well as the
influence of tilt angle on these losses. Two different procedures for quantifying soiling losses have been used: The
first one measuring transmittance losses of the module and the second one analyzing the values of the daily
performance ratio. Measurements were carried out for two periods: the photovoltaic modules were placed with a
south orientation and 21° (first period of measurements) and 40 ° (second period of measurements) tilt angles. The
obtained results show that coated modules exhibit lower soiling losses that those without coating and therefore better
values of daily yield. Then, soiling losses depend on the module tilt angle and are lower when module inclination is
higher.

description: In theory, reducing the photovoltaic (PV) module operating temperatures is expected to reduce the longterm
rate of degradation of module components, especially for polymer-based materials and lead to improved reliability.
In addition, PV modules operating at lower temperatures potentially produce more power output by reducing the thermal
losses. In this work, an approach to manage the operating temperature of crystalline silicon (c-Si) PV modules, using
materials in the construction and fabrication of backsheets, is presented. The corresponding PV systems with different
backsheet materials were monitored outdoors under real field conditions and the results clearly demonstrated that the
changes in packaging materials could lower the peak operating temperatures of c-Si by as much as 10 °C. The results also
demonstrated that the backsheet material can further assist to minimize energy losses from thermal effects and improve
energy yield by approximately 1% or more.

description: Pluridisciplinar convergence is a major problem that had emerged with Human-Artefact Systems and so-called " Augmented Humanity " as academical fields and even more as technical fields. Problems come mainly from the juxtaposition of two very different types of system, a biological one and an artificial one. Thus, conceiving and designing the multiple couplings between them has become a major difficulty. Some came with reductionnist solutions to answer these problems but since we know that a biological system and a technical system are different, this approach is limited from its beginning. Using a specifically designed questionnaire and statistical analysis we determined how specialists (medical practitioners, ergonomists and engineers) in the domain conceive themselves what is a Human-Artifact System and how they relate to existent traditions and showed that some of them relate to the integrativist views.

description: In this work we show that deeply textured glass covers can solve an important issue which is the risk of
glare due to sunlight reflection on PV modules. We introduce a quantitative measure of glare as the luminance value
in the brightest direction and we observe that SGGAlbarino P glass covers allow a reduction of more than 2 orders of
magnitude compared to reference smoothly textured cover glasses, from more than one million cd/m² to less than ten
thousand cd/m². The physical explanation of this extremely efficient anti-glare property of SGGAlbarino P is to be
found in its surface topography which shows both a very broad slope distribution and a randomized aspect.

description: Potential-induced degradation (PID) has been emerging as a major problem for crystalline silicon
photovoltaic modules in recent years. Despite the extensive research efforts in this field from numerous institutions, no
unanimous model of the mechanism has been presented so far. In the current work, two hypotheses for the understanding
of the PID are considered. They are both based on processes which are popular in the semiconductor industry. The first
one builds on the fact that lithium ions, readily available in soda-lime glass, can drift in the solar cell and affect its
operation. The second model consists of charging and grounding paths for the silicon nitride ARC. The resistance of
these charge-transfer paths defines the vulnerability of a cell and module technology to PID. A semiconductor model is
discussed, which fits to a multiple of experimental observations. The basic concept of this model is the formation of an
inversion layer on top of the solar cell emitter due to polarization charges in the silicon nitride. Initial results related to
both hypotheses are discussed.
Hierarchical vs Degenerate 2HDM: The LHC Run 1 Legacy at the Onset of Run 2

description: Current discussions of the allowed two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) parameter space after LHC Run 1 and the prospects for Run 2 are commonly phrased in the context of a quasi-degenerate spectrum for the new scalars. Here we discuss the generic situation of a 2HDM with a non-degenerate spectrum for the new scalars. This is highly motivated from a cosmological perspective since it naturally leads to a strongly first order electroweak phase transition that could explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe. While constraints from measurements of Higgs signal strengths do not change, those from searches of new scalar states get modified dramatically once a non-degenerate spectrum is considered.

description: Extensive efforts have been made in order to evaluate solar modules with respect to their PID
sensitivity and to identify suitable test methods resulting in an IEC standard test. Recent activities in different PID
round robin experiments are summarized in this paper. Results and conclusions from the IEC 62804 draft round robin
testing coordinated by NREL are discussed. A complementary cooperation project coordinated by PI Berlin is
presented, which is focusing on the comparison of the 60°C/85%/-1000V with both the 85°C/85%/-1000V and the
25°C/Al/-1000V test condition as well as on the correlation to real outdoor data. Data on PID testing at module level
are discussed in terms of their field relevance and the actual occurrence of PID in the field, since latter is strongly
depending on both the specific climate and weather conditions at a certain location as well as the specific system
configuration. First outdoor data are shown for PID sensitive modules with the same BOM as the panels used for
indoor testing.

description: We consider light propagation above the light line in arrays of spherical dielectric nanoparticles. It is demonstrated numerically that quasi-bound leaky modes of the array can propagate both stationary waves and light pulses to a distance of hundreds wavelengths at the frequencies close to the bound states in the radiation continuum. A semi-analytical estimate for decay rates of the guided waves is found to match the numerical data to a good accuracy.
