Solar Magnetic Field Profile: A Natural Consequence of RSFP Scenario

Assuming that the solar neutrino deficit is resolved by the resonant interaction of the neutrino magnetic moment with the solar magnetic field, in the framework of Resonant Spin Flavour Precession (RSFP) scenario, it becomes quite obvious to extract the solar magnetic field profile from the framework itself, in order to explain the solar neutrino data. As because the magnetic field profile, B(x...

A temporary, moderate and responsive scenario for solar geoengineering

201 One cannot meaningfully evaluate solar geoengineering without a scenario for its implementation. It is now common, for example, to assert that more scientific research is needed to assess the balance between the risks and benefits of solar geoengineering, hereafter called solar radiation management (SRM). Yet the balance between risks and benefits depends at least as strongly on how SRM is ...

Curvaton scenario with low scale inflation revisited

In its simplest form the curvaton paradigm requires the Hubble parameter during inflation to be bigger than 10GeV, but this bound may be evaded in non-standard settings. In the heavy curvaton scenario the curvaton mass increases significantly after the end of inflation. We reanalyze the bound in this set up, taking into account the upper bound on the curvaton mass from direct decay. We obtain H...

A Low Cost High Flux Solar Simulator

A low cost, high flux, large area solar simulator has been designed, built and characterized for the purpose of studying optical melting and light absorption behavior of molten salts. Seven 1500 W metal halide outdoor stadium lights are used as the light source to simulate concentrating solar power (CSP) heliostat output. Metal halide bulbs and ballasts are far less costly per-watt than typical...
