Scaling Description of Dynamical Heterogeneity and Avalanches of Relaxation in Glass-Forming Liquids
We provide a theoretical description of dynamical heterogeneities in glass-forming liquids, based on the premise that relaxation occurs via local rearrangements coupled by elasticity. In our framework, the growth of the dynamical correlation length e and o ...
College Pk2023Charge fluctuations in the intermediate-valence ground state of SmCoIn5
Nicola Colonna, Vladimir N. Strocov, Neeraj Kumar
The microscopic mechanism of heavy band formation, relevant for unconventional superconductivity in CeCoIn5 and other Ce-based heavy fermion materials, depends strongly on the efficiency with which f electrons are delocalized from the rare earth sites and ...
NATURE PORTFOLIO2023Hardware Implementation of Digital Signal Processing Algorithms for Programmable Epilepsy Control Systems
Epilepsy is a common chronic neurological disorder that causes recurring seizures and affects more than 50 million people worldwide. Implantable medical devices (IMDs) are regarded as effective tools to cure patients who suffer from refractory epilepsy. Se ...
EPFL2023A Kilometre-range Distributed Relative Humidity Fibre Sensor
Tiago Filipe Pimentel Das Neves
Fibre optics sensors have been identified as very good candidates for environmental monitoring inside the silicon detectors operated at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. The objective of this dissertation is the development of a Relative Humidity (RH) distribu ...
EPFL2022Operating Temperatures and Diurnal Temperature Variations of Modules Installed in Open-Rack and Typical BIPV Configurations
Christophe Ballif, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Andrew Wayne Fairbrother
Because of building skin integration with restricted or reduced rear-side ventilation, elevated operating temperatures are expected in building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) modules and systems, which may impact their long performance and reliability. Th ...
IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC2022Gravitational wave signal from primordial magnetic fields in the Pulsar Timing Array frequency band
The NANOGrav, Parkes, European, and International Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) Collaborations have reported evidence for a common-spectrum process that can potentially correspond to a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) in the 1-100 nHz frequency ...
AMER PHYSICAL SOC2022N2O Decomposition over Fe-ZSM-5: A Systematic Study in the Generation of Active Sites
Lioubov Kiwi, Fernando Cardenas Lizana, Bryan Bromley
We have carried out a systematic investigation of the critical activation parameters (i.e., final temperature (673-1273 K), atmosphere (He vs. O-2/He), and final isothermal hold (1 min-15 h) on the generation of "alpha-sites", responsible for the direct N2 ...
2020A Bayesian numerical homogenization method for elliptic multiscale inverse problems
Assyr Abdulle, Andrea Di Blasio
A new strategy based on numerical homogenization and Bayesian techniques for solving multiscale inverse problems is introduced. We consider a class of elliptic problems which vary at a microscopic scale, and we aim at recovering the highly oscillatory tens ...
2020Versatile Route to trans-Platinum(II) Complexes via Manipulation of a Coordinated 3-(Pyridin-3-yl)propanoicAcid Ligand
Paul Joseph Dyson, Tina Riedel, Marta Maroto Diaz
We describe the direct coupling of alcohols and amines to a 3-(pyridin-3-yl)propanoic acid ligand coordinated to a Pt(II) to afford ester and amide derivatives. Using this approach, a family of trans-Pt(II) compounds with amine ligands bearing long perfluo ...
2019Daylight and temperature in buildings: interaction effects on human responses
Over the past years, increasing efforts have been devoted to understand how people perceive the indoor environment with the goal to improve building design and operation. Studies have separately addressed the effects of the four main aspects that influence ...
