Compact X-Ray Light Source Design
Background X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) produce x-ray pulses with durations shorter than 100 femtoseconds. Each pulse contains enough photons to produce a diffraction pattern from a nanocrystal in a single shot, while avoiding most effects of radiation damage. XFELs are increasing in prevalence in a range of applications due to their capacity...

Systems and Methods for Global Horizontal Irradiance Forecasting for Photovoltaic Systems
Background As more large-scale solar arrays (utility-scale) are connected to the energy grid, predicting solar irradiance (e.g., the amount of sunlight hitting the panels) becomes crucial for accurately forecasting the power of these photovoltaic (PV) arrays. This is because solar power generation is highly dependent on sunlight, which is variable...

Transformer-Less, Reduced Volume PV Inverter Topology
Inverters are devices typically used in solar power generation systems to convert electric current to a more useful type, but are prone to failure and are the main cause of malfunction in solar power systems. Using transformer-less (TL) inverters is a desirable alternative because of their higher efficiency, lower size, and lower cost. However, TL inverters...
