Betelgeuse, one of the most studied red supergiant stars,, dimmed in the optical range by~
1.2 mag between late 2019 and early 2020, reaching a historical minimum,–called 'the Great …

The energy available in a solar energy powered grid is uncertain due to the weather
conditions at the time of generation. Forecasting global solar irradiance could address this …

The increasing penetration of solar energy leaves power grids vulnerable to fluctuations in
the solar radiation that reaches the surface of the Earth due to the projection of cloud …

Cloud base height (CBH) is a critical input to short-term solar forecasting algorithms, yet
CBH measurements are difficult to obtain. Existing methods to detect CBH include …

The increasing penetration of photovoltaic systems in the power grid makes it vulnerable to
cloud shadow projection. Real-time cloud segmentation in ground-based infrared images is …

This multidisciplinary paper reports on a research application-led study for predicting
atmospheric attenuation, and tries to bridge the knowledge gap between applied …

The formation and evolution of clouds are associated with their thermodynamical and
microphysical progress. Previous studies have been conducted to collect images using …

This paper presents a gain-switched Ho: YAG laser at 2090 nm, pumped by a passively Q
switched Tm: YLF. A pulse duration of 3.35 ns is achieved with a pulse energy of 0.7 mJ at …
