Radiative cooling is a ubiquitous passive process that uses photon heat flow to carry away energy and entropy. Radiative cooling processes have been studied in the scientific literature for many decades, but advances in nanophotonics have enabled recent
Wurfel (physics, U. Karlsruhe, Germany) develops the physical principles underlying the function of a solar cell, seeking a balance between being comprehensive and being comprehensible for students and researchers in other sciences as well as physics. His emphasis is on a thermodynamic approach that...
(blue). Also note that due to capillary physics, the planar capillary is only formed where the distance between the sidewalls is small. In other words, where the distance between sidewalls is large (the embossed region), surface tensions cannot support the planar capillary. These larger non-...

operate with a closed tritium-deuterium fuel cycle, and qualify technological solutions for future commercial fusion power plants, including achieving the tritium self-sufficiency by nuclear transmutation reactions of lithium isotopes with neutrons produced in the deuterium–tritium fusion reactions [2]. Th...
The right part (in parentheses) of Eq. (1) contains all the particle physics input and, for the typically very small DM velocities, is usually sufficiently independent of [Math Processing Error] that it can be pulled outside the integrals (note, however, that this is nottrue for strongly ...
Isolating a system for study is basic to applications of concepts and solutions of many types of problems in physics. Since this is a concept that underlies other lessons to follow, the concept itself lacks a context, so it is important to constantly reiterate the importance of systems in ...
Such characteristics may lead to premature tendon rupture, particularly when combined effects are present, such as at shear-cracking planes in reinforced concrete beams where dowel action exists. The dowel action reduces residual tensile and shear resistance in the tendon. Solutions and limitations of ...
