Superconductivity is a remarkable phenomenon in condensed matter physics, which comprises a fascinating array of properties expected to revolutionize energy-related technologies and pertinent fundamental research. However, the field faces…

Cryogenic characterization of transition-edge sensor (TES) bolometers is a time- and labor-intensive process. As new experiments deploy larger and larger arrays of TES bolometers, the testing process will become more of a bottleneck. Thus…

Thermoelectric materials can convert thermal energy into electricity, making them promising candidates for harvesting waste heat, an increasingly important challenge in the energy-intensive modern world. The search for improved…

Heavy-ion collision experiments such as the Large Hadron Collider and the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider offer a unique platform to study several key properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a deconfined state of strongly interacting…

We develop an artificial neural network model to predict quantum heat engines working within the experimentally realized framework of electromagnetically induced transparency. We specifically focus on {\Lambda}-type alkali-based cold atomic…

An accurate design of a ground-coupled heat pump system requires the knowledge of the outlet fluid temperature from the borehole heat exchangers (BHEs), both in the short and long term. This paper fucuses on the short and medium term. In…

A first-principles approach is presented for the thermoelectricity in molecular junctions formed by a single molecule contact. The study investigates the Seebeck coefficient considering the source-drain electrodes with distinct temperatures…

Using first-principles approaches, this study investigated the efficiency of energy conversion in nanojunctions, described by the thermoelectric figure of merit $ZT$. We obtained the qualitative and quantitative descriptions for the…

We present a geometric formulation of optical, thermoelectric, and thermal linear response in clean, zero temperature band insulators based on a single object: a generalized time-dependent quantum geometric tensor (g-tQGT) built from…

This paper investigates a generation expansion planning (GEP) problem encompassing renewable, thermal, and storage technologies while simultaneously optimizing market participation, operational expenditures, and capital investment. To…

This paper suggests using the configurational temperature $\Tc$ for quantifying how far an active-matter system is from thermal equilibrium. We measure this ``distance'' by the ratio of the systemic temperature $\Ts$ to $\Tc$, where $\Ts$…

Organic semiconductors show complex phenomena due to their high energetic disorder. A striking example is the possibility of an increased effective temperature T_eff of the charge carrier distribution relative to the lattice temperature,…

The atomic variations of electronic wavefunctions at the surface and electron scattering near a defect have been detected unprecedentedly by tracing thermoelectric voltages given a temperature bias [Cho et al., Nature Mater. 12, 913…

The thermal properties of hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters are usually compared to observations by relying on the emission-weighted temperature T_ew, instead of on the spectroscopic X-ray temperature T_spec, which is obtained…

Thermoelectric power generators are used to convert heat into electricity. Like any other heat engine, the performance of a thermoelectric generator increases as the temperature difference on the sides increases. It is generally assumed…

Efficiency of thermoelectric materials is characterized by the figure of merit Z. Z has been believed to be a peculiar material constant. However, the accurate measurements in the present work reveal that Z has large size dependence and a…

Using the methodology of conditional-probability density functional theory, and several mild assumptions, we calculate the temperature-dependence of the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) generalized gradient approximation (GGA). This…

Thermoelectricity is the direct conversion of temperature gradient to electric voltage, and vice-versa. There are several potential applications of thermoelectricity, ranging from clean noiseless cooling, to waste-power harvesting in…

We use first-principles electronic structure methods to calculate the electronic thermoelectric properties (i.e. due to electronic transport only) of single-crystalline bulk $n$-type silicon-germanium alloys vs Ge composition, temperature,…

Structural system identification in the presence of thermal loads is challenging, as unmeasured or poorly modeled thermal effects can mask or mimic damage, leading to unreliable conclusions. This work presents an optimization-driven,…
