A Pure Integral-Type PLL with a Damping Branch to Enhance the Stability of Grid-Tied Inverter under Weak Grids

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yi Zhou, Zhouchen Deng, Shi Chen, Yiwei Qiu, Tianlei Zang | Summary: In a phase-locked loop (PLL) synchronized inverter, due to the strong nonlinear coupling between the PLL’s parame-ters and the operation power angle, the equivalent damping coefficient will quickly deteriorate while the power angle is close […]

Exploring Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey V: First Year Results

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Grisha Zeltyn, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael Eracleous, Qian Yang, Paul Green | Summary: "Changing-look" active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) challenge our basic ideas about the physics of accretion flows and circumnuclear gas around supermassive black holes. Using first-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey V (SDSS-V) repeated spectroscopy of nearly 29,000 […]

Unraveling the mechanisms of triplet state formation in a heavy-atom free photosensitizer

Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Thomas P. Fay, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: Triplet excited state generation plays a pivotal role in photosensitizers, however the reliance on transition metals and heavy atoms can limit the utility of these systems. In this study, we demonstrate that an interplay of competing […]

Stability of 20 Biogenic Amino Acids in Concentrated Sulfuric Acid: Implications for the Habitability of Venus’ Clouds

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Maxwell D. Seager, Sara Seager, William Bains, Janusz J. Petkowski, | Summary: Scientists have long speculated about the potential habitability of Venus, not at the 700K surface, but in the cloud layers located at 48-60 km altitudes, where temperatures match those found on Earth’s surface. However, the […]
