The Cost-effective Application of Solar Energy

Solar power is an environmental protection, clean energy. Solar power system consists of solar panels, converter, battery and inverter. The main ingredient of solar panels is Silicon. Si is one of the most abundance of material on our planet. The solar power system in this research includes three 15-watt solar panels, a 12VDC converter, battery and a 1000-watt inverter. The energy is collected through the solar panels and stored in the battery. The inverter is used to convert 12VDC into 120VAC, which can provide a variety of experiments and applications. The purpose of this study is to find a system we can apply the solar power to our daily use cost-effectively

Intelligent optical performance monitor using multi-task learning based artificial neural network

An intelligent optical performance monitor using multi-task learning based artificial neural network (MTL-ANN) is designed for simultaneous OSNR monitoring and modulation format identification (MFI). Signals' amplitude histograms (AHs) after constant module algorithm are selected as the input features for MTL-ANN. The experimental results of 20-Gbaud NRZ-OOK, PAM4 and PAM8 signals demonstrate that MTL-ANN could achieve OSNR monitoring and MFI simultaneously with higher accuracy and stability compared with single-task learning based ANNs (STL-ANNs). The results show an MFI accuracy of 100% and OSNR monitoring root-mean-square error of 0.63 dB for the three modulation formats under consideration. Furthermore, the number of neuron needed for the single MTL-ANN is almost the half of STL-ANN, which enables reduced-complexity optical performance monitoring devices for real-time performance monitoring

Reduced-Order Projective Synchronization of Hyper-Chaotic L\"{U} System and Chen System

By selecting non-zero constant as a scaling factor, we design a reduced-order projective synchronization scheme for synchronizing the fourth-order hyper-chaotic L\"{u} system and the third-order chaotic Chen system. To this end, a nonlinear synchronization controller is constructed. Finally, some numerical simulations are given to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme in this paper

New Chinese Facilities for Short-Range Correlation Physics

This article explores the significant advancements in Short-Range Correlation (SRC) research enabled by the latest Chinese nuclear physics facilities- CSR at HIRFL, HIAF, SHINE, and the upcoming EicC. These facilities introduce cutting-edge technologies and methodologies, addressing existing challenges and broadening the scope for SRC studies. By providing detailed insights into the capabilities and expected contributions of each facility, the paper highlights China's emerging role in the global nuclear physics landscape. The collaborative potential, alongside complementary global efforts, positions these facilities to deeply influence our understanding of nuclear matter's fundamental properties and interactions.Comment: 16 pages, 14 figures, to be submitted to EPJA Topical Collection: Short-Range Correlations and the EMC Effec

The Magnetic Properties of 1111-type Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor (La1−x_{1-x}Bax_{x})(Zn1−x_{1-x}Mnx_{x})AsO in the Low Doping Regime

We investigated the magnetic properties of (La$_{1-x}$Ba$_{x}$)(Zn$_{1-x}$Mn$_{x}$)AsO with $x$ varying from 0.005 to 0.05 at an external magnetic field of 1000 Oe. For doping levels of $x$ $\leq$ 0.01, the system remains paramagnetic down to the lowest measurable temperature of 2 K. Only when the doping level increases to $x$ = 0.02 does the ferromagnetic ordering appear. Our analysis indicates that antiferromagnetic exchange interactions dominate for $x$ $\leq$ 0.01, as shown by the negative Weiss temperature fitted from the magnetization data. The Weiss temperature becomes positive, i.e., ferromagnetic coupling starts to dominate, for $x$ $\geq$ 0.02. The Mn-Mn spin interaction parameter $\mid$$2J/k_B$$\mid$ is estimated to be in the order of 10 K for both $x$ $\leq$ 0.01 (antiferromagnetic ordered state) and $x$ $\geq$ 0.02 (ferromagnetic ordered state). Our results unequivocally demonstrate the competition between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic exchange interactions in carrier-mediated ferromagnetic systems.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figure
