Haymarket Ebooks on sale for $2!
At Haymarket, our mission is to publish books that contribute to struggles for social and economic justice. We strive to make our books a vibrant and organic part of social movements, and we believe that collective study plays a crucial role in sustaining engaged, effective, and durable left-wing organizations and communities. To that end, we aim to make our books accessible to anyone who might find them valuable. Until Friday, November 7th, ALL Haymarket ebooks are 80% Off. That means …

“MW chargers are expected to comprise almost 15% of the total installed charging power needs, but only 2% of the total number of chargers. Lower-power chargers, such as 350 kW chargers, can cover more than half the public fast charging needs for long-haul trucks.”

Charging infrastructure needs for battery electric trucks in the European Union by 2030 - International Council on Clean Transportation
Analyzes battery electric truck charging infrastructure needs by 2030 in the EU, and compares them to the AFIR targets by modeling the expected fleet and considering its energy consumption, driving patterns, and charging behavior.

A decent haul from our cramped city garden as we close up for the winter.

Formation of C-centers in Si-based systems by light ion irradiation
Atomic-scale crystal defects in Si are quantum-light sources offering tantalizing integration with existing photonic technologies. Yet, the controlled creation of near-infrared color centers for long- haul quantum communication and information still remains a challenge. In this work, we utilize light ions, such as H+ and He+, to gently generate quantum emitters in a crystalline Si matrix. Temperature-dependent photoluminescence measurements demonstrate the presence of optically-active defects, …
