Accretion-to-jet energy conversion efficiency in GW170817 [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are thought to be produced by short-lived, supercritical accretion onto a newborn compact object. Some process is believed to tap energy from the compact object, or the accretion disc, powering the launch of a relativistic jet.

Quantum efficiency of photosynthetic energy conversion. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1977 The quantum efficiency of photosynthetic energy conversion was investigated in isolated spinach chloroplasts by measurements of the quantum requirements of ATP formation by cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation catalyzed by ferredoxin. ATP formation had a requirement of about 2 quanta per 1 ATP at 715 nm (corresponding to a requirement of 1 quantum

Efficient conversion of solar energy to biomass and electricity [PDF]
Aquatic Biosystems, 2014 The Earth receives around 1000 W.m(-2) of power from the Sun and only a fraction of this light energy is able to be converted to biomass (chemical energy) via the process of photosynthesis. Out of all photosynthetic organisms, microalgae, due to their fast growth rates and their ability to grow on non-arable land using saline water, have been ...
