A I-V analysis of irradiated Gallium Arsenide solar cells

A computer program was used to analyze the illuminated I-V characteristics of four sets of gallium arsenide (GaAs) solar cells irradiated with 1-MeV electrons and 10-MeV protons. It was concluded that junction regions (J sub r) dominate nearly all GaAs cells tested, except for irradiated Mitsubishi cells, which appear to have a different doping profile. Irradiation maintains or increases the dominance by J sub r. Proton irradiation increases J sub r more than does electron irradiation. The U.S. cells were optimized for beginning of life (BOL) and the Japanese for end of life (EOL). I-V analysis indicates ways of improving both the BOL and EOL performance of GaAs solar cells

A Tale of Two Trusts: The Barnes Foundation and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum

This paper examines the law of charitable trusts and donor intent through a comparison of two museums: the Barnes Foundation and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. This paper first analyzes the framework of the Barnes trust and the Gardner trust and explores the various limitations each donor placed upon their trust instruments, including the similar restriction that, after their deaths, their art could never be moved from where they placed it in their respective galleries. The paper then compares and contrasts the Gardner trust with the Barnes trust and discusses how, given their initial similarities, the Gardner Museum has received great success, whereby the Barnes Foundation is currently facing bankruptcy. The paper’s discussion particularly focuses on the recent controversial decision of a Pennsylvania court to allow the Barnes collection to be moved from its current location in the suburbs of Philadelphia, to a new building downtown in an effort to forestall bankruptcy. In conclusion, this paper argues that where Barnes’s excessive use of dead hand control ironically failed to ensure that his wishes for the Foundation were respected in perpetuity, the flexibility of the Gardner trust is what led to its ultimate success

Draw, Write, Speak, Play: The Role of Projection in Diagnosis and Therapy of Children and Adolescents

In this chapter, I will (1) review the concept and function of projective mechanisms on a psychodynamic basis. In this section, I will outline the relation of projection to the unconscious, its use in innerpsychic dynamics, and the underlying mechanisms for its use in psychotherapy like creativity, imagination, and symbolization; (2) give an overview over the use of projective methods for testing and diagnosis in the psychological sciences; and (3) exemplify the use of projective methods in diagnostics and psychotherapy of children and adolescents. I will present current methods based on drawing, verbally describing and imaginating, and playing arts, focusing on sand play therapy and miniature figure play
