The impact of PV generation and load types on the impedance relays during both balanced and unbalanced faults by Kamel, Rashad M.

“…When single line to ground fault occurs at the PV bus (far from relay location), the dynamic loads increase the relay impedance, while the PV plant decreases the relay impedance. When a single phase to ground fault occurs at the relay bus (load bus), the dynamic load decreases the relay impedance, and the PV plant increases it. …”

Correlated decay of triplet excitations in the shastry-sutherland compound SrCu2 (BO3)2 by Zayed, M.E.

“…The temperature dependence of the gapped triplet excitations (triplons) in the 2D Shastry-Sutherland quantum magnet SrCu2(BO3)2 is studied by means of inelastic neutron scattering. The excitation amplitude rapidly decreases as a function of temperature, while the integrated spectral weight can be explained by an isolated dimer model up to 10 K. …”
