Microconcentrator Solar Panel Architectures Achieving High Specific Power for Deep Space Missions
Microconcentrator photovoltaics (microCPV) are emerging as a promising solution for powering spacecraft in deep space, where conventional solar arrays are challenged by extremely low‐intensity, low‐temperature conditions. This work presents the design, development, and characterization of two optical architectures aiming at maximizing specific power (W/

Nearly 180° Field‐of‐View Metalens for Miniaturized Imaging Systems
A compact, single‐layer metalens is developed with an ultra‐wide field of view of ≈180 degrees. Utilizing a unique quadratic phase profile, this metalens overcomes traditional issues like axial and color dispersion. It operates across red, green, and blue wavelengths with non‐polarized light, promising enhanced imaging capabilities for integration into

On the Electromagnetic Energy Flow Along Geodesics
Abstract We present a field‐theoretic framework for modeling electromagnetic energy propagation in heterogeneous media by introducing the concept of electromagnetic geodesics. Unlike traditional ray optics, which assumes either a straight‐line propagation or a simple bending in refractive media, our approach formulates wave propagation as geodetic ...

This work introduces a multiagent deep reinforcement learning (MADRL) framework for energy harvesting (EH) in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) networks aided by reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS). The core goal is to maximize quantities of harvested energy subject to quality of service (QoS) constraints in dynamic wireless setups.

An Interval‐Valued Fermatean Neutrosophic Framework for Sustainable Transportation Under Uncertainty
Transportation planning is facing heightened complexity because the dynamic parameters influenced by globalization and unpredictable technological disruptions. Traditional models are not capable to handle interval‐based uncertainties related to supply, demand, and costs, especially as the scale of suppliers and customers expands.

Metasurfaces in Adaptive Optics: A New Opportunity in Optical Wavefront Sensing
Wavefront sensing constitutes a critical component of adaptive optics systems, aimed at quantitatively measuring distorted wavefronts and enabling closed‐loop correction in optical setups. Metasurfaces, as planar optical elements composed of nanoscale structures, provide exceptional freedom in modulating multiple dimensions of the light field.

Abstract This paper addresses the problem of retrieving the propagation velocities of electromagnetic waves in a non‐homogeneous soil made up of two layers separated by a not‐flat interface. The propagation velocities are estimated from GPR data gathered at the air–soil interface in common offset configuration.

ABSTRACT A finite group G$$ G $$ is mixable if a product of random elements, each chosen independently from two options, can distribute uniformly on G$$ G $$. We present conditions and obstructions to mixability. We show that 2‐groups, the symmetric groups, the simple alternating groups, several matrix and sporadic simple groups, and most finite ...
