Symmetric and asymmetric linear compound parabolic concentrating solar energy collectors: The state-of-the-art in optical and thermo-physical analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the optical and thermal properties of line-axis concentrating solar energy collectors are reviewed and it is concluded that whilst most aspects of symmetric systems are well understood, much remains to be clarified regarding the performance, particularly thermal, of asymmetric systems.

Timing properties of long scintillation counters based on scintillating fibers
TL;DR: In this article, the light output and timing characteristics of a scintillation counter constructed of plastic scintillating fibers are compared to those of a counter with identical transverse cross section of 2 cm × 3 cm made of bulk scintilator.
