Coherently tunable triangular trefoil phaseonium metamaterial by Soci, Cesare, Nguyen, Duc Minh, Ooi, Raymond C. H.

“…For specific values of the probing frequencies and control fields, the phaseonium can display either metallic or dielectric optical response. We find that, in the metallic regime, the phaseonium metamaterial structure supports extremely large transmission, with optical amplification at large enough intensity of the microwave thanks to strong surface plasmon coupling; while, in the dielectric regime without microwave excitation, the transmission bandwidth can be tuned by varying the control beam intensity. …”

Mitigation of lightning-induced transient effects on a hybrid photovoltaic–wind system based on lightning protection standards by Abda, Zmnako Mohammed Khurshid, Ab Kadir, Mohd Zainal Abidin, Hizam, Hashim, Gomes, Chandima

“…The analysis in this work is crucial for designing, operating, and maintaining a hybrid PV–wind system. It can help to find the potential vulnerability areas within such a system and implement appropriate protection measures since there is no available lightning standard for such systems. …”

Rapid process modeling of the aerosol jet printing based on gaussian process regression with latin hypercube sampling by Zhang, Haining, Moon, Seung Ki, Ngo, T. H., Tou, J., Bin Mohamed Yusoff, M. A.

“…Hence, it is necessary to develop a small data set based machine learning approach to model relationship between the process parameters and the line morphology. In this paper, we propose a rapid process modeling method for AJP process and consider sheath gas flow rate, carrier gas flow rate, stage speed as AJP process parameters, and line width and line roughness as the line morphology. …”

The new physics case for beam-dump experiments with accelerated muon beams by Cesarotti, Cari, Gambhir, Rikab

“…We demonstrate the utility of muon beam-dump experiments for new physics searches at energies from 10 GeV to 5 TeV. We find that, even at low energies like those accessible at staging or demonstrator facilities, it is possible to probe new regions of parameter space for a variety of generic BSM models, including muonphilic, leptophilic, Lμ − Lτ, and dark photon scenarios. …”
