Abstract: Mathematical models are crucial in many scientific fields. Modelling that starts from first principles can then be a good start. For operational use in real practice, however, the model should be in good accordance with experimental data. Nowadays, data-driven modelling becomes more and more popular, thus using a limited amount of prior knowledge.

The exhaust of particles and heat is one of the unresolved challenges on the way to a future fusion reactor. The main exhaust concept explored in the current fusion experiments is based on the modification of the magnetic edge topology by diverting the outermost field lines to dedicated target areas physically distant from the core plasma.

Halide perovskites are a promising candidate for the next generation energy-harvesting technologies owing to their excellent optoelectronic properties and low-cost solution processability. A striking difference between halide perovskites and conventional semiconductors (e.g., silicon) is the dual ionic-covalent bond nature within the anionic inorganic framework.

Dr. Kourosh Malek
A critical step in transitioning to a green future is the accelerated discovery and mobilization of high-performance materials for clean technologies. Clean energy transition by 2030 requires at least 10X acceleration for production-ready energy materials.
