Geothermal Energy: Delivering on the Global Potential
Geothermal energy has been harnessed for recreational uses for millennia, but only for electricity generation for a little over a century. Although geothermal is unique amongst renewables for its baseload and renewable heat provision capabilities, uptake

Master polytopes for cycles of binary matroids
L\({}_ k\), the complete binary matroid of order k, is defined by the binary standard representation matrix \([I| A_ k]\) where I is the identity matrix and \(A_ k\) is the 0-1 matrix with k columns that has as rows all possible distinct 0-1 vectors except for the k unit vectors and the 0-vector.

Utilization of Excess Steam from a Vent Valve in a Geothermal Power Plant
A novel strategy is presented for the utilization of the excess steam released into the atmosphere from the vent valve of a geothermal power plant. In particular, three possible approaches are considered: dry-steam cycle, binary cycle, and Kalina cycle ...

The intensities of canonical senescence biomarkers integrate the duration of cell-cycle withdrawal
Senescence, a state of irreversible cell-cycle withdrawal, is difficult to distinguish from quiescence, a state of reversible cell-cycle withdrawal.

Finding Lean Induced Cycles in Binary Hypercubes [PDF]
Induced (chord-free) cycles in binary hypercubes have many applications in computer science. The state of the art for computing such cycles relies on genetic algorithms, which are, however, unable to perform a complete search. In this paper, we propose an approach to finding a special class of induced cycles we call lean, based on an efficient ...

CYCLE-TO-CYCLE VARIATIONS OF THE SYMBIOTIC BINARY R AQR
The observations of R Aqr from the AFOEV database are analyzed. The corrected value of the period P = 387509 ±0.029d was determined from a 5-th order trigonometric polynomial fit with a corresponding initial epoch for the maximum To =244473376 ±0.93d and

The Struve-Sahade effect in the optical spectra of O-type binaries I. Main-sequence systems [PDF]
We present a spectroscopic analysis of four massive binary systems that are known or are good candidates to display the Struve-Sahade effect (defined as the apparent strengthening of the secondary spectrum of the binary when the star is approaching, and ...
