Las cuentas oculadas de la Edad del Hierro en el sector suroccidental de la Meseta Norte (España)

The current recent study gathers a group of oculated necklace beads found in the southwestern region of the Iberian Northern Plateau, most of them dated from the middle of the Iron Age (5th-4th centuries BC). These are either old or well-known pieces, as well as new and unpublished, brought to light with the intention of analysing them together to know how, when and from where they reached the different prehistoric sites in the present-day Spanish provinces of Salamanca and Ávila. To do this, a comparison has been established with other oculated beads found in settlements on the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands, drawing some conclusions about the importation of materials, the exchange between communities and the inheritance of the Mediterraean influence in the area.El presente estudio reúne un grupo de cuentas de collar oculadas halladas en la región suroeste de la Meseta Norte, fechadas en su mayoría a partir de mediados de la Edad del Hierro (ss. V-IV a.C.). Se trata tanto de viejas y conocidas piezas, como de nuevas e inéditas, con la intención de analizarlas en conjunto para saber cómo, cuándo y por dónde llegaron a los distintos yacimientos prehistóricos de las actuales provincias de Salamanca y Ávila. Para ello, se ha establecido una comparación con otras cuentas oculadas halladas en asentamientos de la Península Ibérica y las Islas Baleares, extrayendo algunas conclusiones sobre la importación de materiales, el intercambio entre comunidades y la herencia de la influencia mediterránea en la zona

Evaluation of theoretical uncertainties in parity-violating electron scattering from nucleons and nuclei

Parity-violating polarized electron scattering from nucleons and nuclei provides an excellent tool to extract valuable information on nuclear and nucleon structure, as well as to determine Standard Model couplings and higher-order radiative corrections. As measurements become more precise, theoretical models should improve accordingly in order to exploit the experimental data fully in extracting meaningful information. At the same time, it is crucial that theoretical evaluations come with realistic estimations of the corresponding theoretical uncertainties to establish that the precision reached in the measurements is not compromised. Here we consider isospin mixing and the charge distribution in nuclei, and strangeness content of the nucleon together with its axial form factor.Junta de Andalucía FQM-16

Electrical activity of crystal defects in multicrystalline Si

Producción CientíficaUpgraded metallurgical-grade silicon solar cells with different ranges of efficiencies have been characterized by light-beam-induced current (LBIC) measurements. The interaction between grain boundaries and metallic impurities is studied for cells fabricated on wafers from different solidification heights of the ingot. A tight relation is observed between the electrical activity of the grain boundaries and the position of the wafer in the ingot, which is related to the impurity contamination. The presence of a large amount of metallic impurities enhances the electrical activity of the grain boundaries. The main features of the LBIC images are discussed in relation to the presence of metallic impurities.Junta de Castilla y León (project VA283P18)Ministerio de Economía, Industria y Competitividad (project ENE2017-89561-C4-3-R

Intelligent Waste Separator

Nowadays, trash has become a problem in the society and the ecosystem due to the way people get rid of it. Most of garbage is buried or burnt or even kept in places to which it does not belong. Big volumes of garbage thrown away and the methods used to store it cause air, water, and soil pollution. Fortunately, people can count on other methods to reduce the quantity of produced litter. An answer is recycling by re-using the materials. Currently, the traditional way to separate waste is to use different containers for each kind of waste separating trash manually, which does not always work. The aim of this paper is to present an Intelligent Waste Separator (IWS) which can replace the traditional way of dealing with waste; the proposed device receives the incoming waste and places it automatically in different containers by using a multimedia embedded processor, image processing, and machine learning in order to select and separate waste.ITESO, A.C

2023 19th International Conference on the Design of Reliable Communication Networks (DRCN),

Producción CientíficaLink failures have a significant negative impact on the availability of a network and should therefore be resolved as soon as possible. Because of the slow convergence time of routing protocols upon detection of a link failure, several IP Fast ReRoute (FRR) mechanisms have been developed to overcome this problem. Recently, segment routing, which is a flexible and scalable way of doing source routing, enabled a new FRR mechanism called Topology Independent Loop-Free Alternate (TI-LFA). As the name suggests, the key feature of TI-LFA is that it guarantees a loop-free detour against any link failure in any network topology. However, typically fast responses to failures only aim to restore the loop-free connection between the affected routers and do not consider the resulting delay or impact on network congestion. This paper presents an initial study on the selected TI-LFA backup paths and their effect on the overall network performance. By means of simulation, we evaluate how efficient TI-LFA reroutes traffic for a number of traffic engineering approaches. Our results quantify the impact of different traffic engineering approaches and network loads on the performance of TI-LFA. This suggests potential directions for improving the effectiveness of TI-LFA protection in segment routing.EU H2020 MSCA ITN-ETN IoTalentum (grant no. 953442)EU H2020-ICT-52-2020 TeraFlow Project (grant 101015857)Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación y Agencia Estatal de Investigación (Proyecto PID2020-112675RB-C42 financiado por MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033

There are many characterization techniques available to evaluate the health of solar panels, such as I-V characterization, infrared thermography (IR), photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL). EL imaging has become in recent years a powerful diagnostic tool to evaluate PV modules. EL images allow to detect several defects and degradation modes in the solar cells. The failures are observed as dark contrasted areas in the images. Broad dark regions can be detected even in a low resolution image, while a high resolution image is needed to detect some more specific problems such as cracks, multi-cracks or other line-shaped defects.PósterJunta de Castilla y León (programa de apoyo a proyectos de investigación - Ref.

Defect recognition by means of light and electron probe techniques for the characterization of mc-Si wafers and solar cells

Producción CientíficaMulticristalline Silicon (mc-Si) is the preferred material for current terrestrial photovoltaic applications. However, the high density of defects present in mc-Si deteriorates the material properties, in particular the minority carrier diffusion length. For this reason, a large effort to characterize the mc-Si material is demanded, aiming to visualize the defective areas and to quantify the type of defects, density and its origin. In this work, several complementary light and electron probe techniques are used for the analysis of both mc-Si wafers and solar cells. These techniques comprise both fast and whole-area detection techniques such as Photoluminescence imaging, and highly spatially resolved time consuming techniques, such as light and electron beam induced current techniques and μRaman spectroscopy. These techniques were applied to the characterization of different mc-Si wafers for solar cells, e.g. ribbon wafers, cast mc-Si as well as quasi-monocrystalline material, upgraded metallurgical mc-Si wafers, and finished solar cells.Junta de Castilla y León (programa de apoyo a proyectos de investigación - Ref.
