Spin precession of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field on a static space-time

We investigate the ratio of spin precession frequency to orbital frequency for a spinning charged particle confined to circular orbit in the equatorial plane of a compact object, with a uniform magnetic field, as described by the Wald and the Ernst potentials. In order to see the difference in behaviours for particles with differentg values we consider the cases of electron and proton separately.

The Segal-Bargmann transform for Lévy white noise functionals associated with non-integrable Lévy processes

By using a method of truncation, we derive the closed form of the Segal-Bargmann transform of Lévy white noise functionals associated with a Lévy process with the Lévy spectrum without the moment condition. Besides, a sufficient and necessary condition to the existence of Lévy stochastic integrals is obtained.     

Dependence of substrate temperature of Zn0.8Co0.2O films deposited by pulsed DC magnetron sputtering

We have investigated the microstructure, electrical and magnetic properties of the ZnCoO thin films, which were prepared by the asymmetrical bipolar-pulsed DC magnetron sputtering as a function of substrate temperature. The structural properties of ZnCoO films were characterized with a high resolution XRD. The XRD patterns of the ZnCoO films showed a strong (0 0 2) preferential orientation. The average crystallite size was 23–35 nm, which was estimated from full width at half maximum of XRD results. The electrical resistivity of the films were measured by the van der Pauw method through Hall measurement and showed below 10⁻¹ Ω cm above 300 °C. The magnetic properties of the ZnCoO films were analyzed by the alternating gradient magnetometer at room temperature. All of the films were exhibited the ferromagnetic nature. The high conductivity and room temperature ferromagnetism of the ZnCoO films above 300 °C suggested that the possibility for the application to diluted magnetic semiconductors.     

Thermodynamic approach of spin-state excitations in LaCoO3

Magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity due to spin-state excitations in LaCoO₃ were analyzed with an irregular solution model composed of Co³⁺ ions in the low-spin ground state and in the high-spin excited state. An energy-levels diagram proposed by Ropka and Radvanskii [1] was used for the high-spin excited state. This analysis showed that the entropy of mixing is less than that of ideal solutions and the enthalpy of mixing is negative, indicating that the high-spin Co ions are arranged as far apart as possible.     

A facile route to hollow superparamagnetic magnetite/polystyrene nanocomposite microspheres via inverse miniemulsion polymerization

In this article, we report a facile route to the preparation of hollow superparamagnetic magnetite/polystyrene nanocomposite microspheres via inverse miniemulsion polymerization at room temperature and under ambient pressure. Water droplets act as a soft template for the formation of hollow structure. Meanwhile, the existence of amphipathic magnetite nanoparticles (MPs) which can assemble at the interface of W/O is favorable to the interfacial polymerization of styrene, ensuring the formation of hollow nanocomposite microspheres. The final products were thoroughly characterized by X‐ray powder diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field‐emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which showed the formation of hollow magnetite/polystyrene nanocomposite microspheres. Magnetic hysteresis loop measurements revealed that both MPs and hollow nanocomposite microspheres displayed superparamagnetism. The effects of the content of H₂O, sorbitan monooleate (Span 80) and styrene and the dose rate on the morphology of nanocomposite microspheres were studied. Furthermore, the mechanism of the formation of the hollow magnetic microspheres was also discussed. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 3900–3910, 2008
