    Strategy deviation index as a new reactive market power indicator

    , Article IET Conference Publications, 7 November 2010 through 10 November 2010, Agia Napa ; Volume 2010, Issue 572 CP , 2010 ; 9781849193191 (ISBN) Rahmat Samii, R ; Nourizadeh, S ; Ranjbar, A. M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Reactive market power assessment is an important issue for ISOs and the regulators of the reactive power market. Due to the localized characteristics of reactive power as a technical support and its monopsonistic nature as an economic commodity, a vivid reactive market power index including market share, demand side and cost is not achieved yet. In this paper, a new reactive market power index is presented which is based on bidding strategy deviation of the GENCOs after establishing a uniform price auction reactive market. Not knowing others' offers to ISO, each unit faces a bidding strategy problem that is solved using game theory. Considering its production costs, the unit uses the...

    Abstract
    In this study, a novel, simple and sensitive ratiometric fluorescence method is presented for the detection of very low quantities of the carbaryl in Iranian apple using cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe QDs) nanoprobe. The principle of the proposed strategy relies on the rapid hydrolysis of the carbaryl under an alkaline condition and production of the 1-naphthol with a blue emission at 470 nm. Besides, using the CdTe QDs with a yellow emission at 580 nm, as a reference, improves the visual tracking of carbaryl through changes in color tonality. The herein described methodology is applied for enzyme-free visual detection of carbaryl with satisfactory results in the presence of other...
