On the domain ferromagnetic resonance in bubble lattice exposed to the in-plane field

The domain ferromagnetic resonance (DFMR) of a bubble lattice was measured on garnet films magnetized in the film plane. More than three theoretically predicted DFMR modes were observed as before on magnetoplumbite platelets in the same measurement configuration. The forms of the dispersion curves (frequency/field graphs) of these modes were found to be similar for both materials. The strongly different magnetic parameters of both sample types enabled us to obtain new information about the character of the excited modes. Due to a good optical transparency and high magnetooptical contrast of the garnet films the dispersion of the DFMR modes could be correlated with the actual domain structure.I wish to express my thanks to A. Kolodrubec for the help with microwave measurements and to V. Kamberský and R. Gemperle for a useful discussion.     

Change in the absorption spectra of blood exposed to a low-frequency magnetic field

We have used the absorption spectra of whole blood in the UV-visible and IR regions of the spectrum to study changes in the structure of the molecular components of blood when exposed to a low-frequency pulsed magnetic field used to treat ischemic heart disease. We show that pronounced changes in the spectra when the blood is directly exposed in vivo to a magnetic field may be due to breaking of the bond between the heme group and the protein of the hemoglobin, as a consequence of changes in the intermolecular interactions in the polypeptide chains of the hemoglobin and also the spin states of the paramagnetic heme components. Exposure to a magnetic field results in changes in the conformations of the polypeptide chains of hemoglobin and the rate of dissociation of oxyhemoglobin. The structural changes in the hemoglobin molecule are considered as one of the possible primary mechanisms of action on blood in vivo for a low-frequency pulsed magnetic field. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 74, No. 2, pp. 199–204, March–April, 2007.     

Dynamics of antiferromagnets exposed to ultrashort magnetic field pulses

An ultrashort magnetic field pulse generated by a laser pulse can excite spin oscillations in a “pure” antiferromagnet even when a weak ferromagnetic moment is absent. This mechanism features the spin oscillation amplitude independent of the sublattice structure and parameters of the ferromagnet and is governed only by the field pulse parameters.     

Heavy fermions in a high magnetic field

We give an overview on experimental studies performed in the last 25 years on heavy-fermion systems in a high magnetic field. The properties of field-induced magnetic transitions in heavy-fermion materials close to a quantum antiferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic instability are presented. Effects of a high magnetic field to the Fermi surface, in particular the splitting of spin-up and spin-down bands, are also considered. Finally, we review on recent advances on the study of non-centrosymmetric compounds and ferromagnetic superconductors in a high magnetic field.     

The quantum compass chain in a transverse magnetic field

We study the magnetic behaviors of a spin-1/2 quantum compass chain (QCC) in a transverse magnetic field, by means of the analytical spinless fermion approach and numerical Lanczos method. In the absence of the magnetic field, the phase diagram is divided into four gapped regions. To determine what happens by applying a transverse magnetic field, using the spinless fermion approach, critical fields are obtained as a function of exchanges. Our analytical results show, the field-induced effects depend on in which one of the four regions the system is. In two regions of the phase diagram, the Ising-type phase transition happens in a finite field. In another region, we have identified two quantum phase transitions (QPT)s in the ground state magnetic phase diagram. These quantum phase transitions belong to the universality class of the commensurate-incommensurate phase transition. We also present a detailed numerical analysis of the low energy spectrum and the ground state magnetic phase diagram. In particular, we show that the intermediate state (h _c1 < h < h _c2) is gapful, describing the spin-flop phase.     

Critical magnetic field ratio of anisotropic magnetic superconductors

The upper critical field, the lower critical field and the critical magnetic field ratio of anisotropic magnetic superconductors are calculated by Ginzburg–Landau theory analytically. The effect of the Ginzburg–Landau parameter (κ₀), magnetic susceptibility (χ) and magnetic-to-anisotropic parameter ratio (θ) on the critical field ratio are considered. We find that the value of critical field ratio increases with increasing κ₀ and θ, and decreases with increasing χ. The highest and the lowest value of critical field ratio is found in the diamagnetic superconductors and the ferromagnetic superconductors, respectively.     

Dynamics of the generalized Glauber-Ising chain in a magnetic field

A one-dimensional kinetic Ising model with nearest neighbor interactionJ and magnetic fieldH 0 is treated in both linear and nonlinear response, using the most general single spin-flip transition probabilities that depend on nearest neighbor states only. The dynamics is reformulated in terms of kinetic equations for the concentration n_l ⁺(t) [@#@ n_l(t) of clusters containingl up- [or down-] spins, which is exact in the homogeneous case. The initial relaxation time ^* of the magnetization is obtained rigorously for arbitraryJ, H, and temperatureT. The relaxation function is found by numerical integration forJ/T < 2. It is shown that coagulation of minus-clusters becomes negligible for bothJ/T andH/T large, and the resulting set of equations is solved exactly in terms of an eigenvalue problem. A perturbation theory is developed to take into account the neglected coagulation terms. The relaxation function is found to be non-Lorentzian in general, in contrast to the Glauber results atH = 0, which are recovered as a special case. In addition, nonlinear and linear relaxation functions differ forH 0. Consequences for the application to biopolymers are briefly mentioned.Supported in part by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (SFB 130).

Reactivity and dislocation structure of silver-and lead-azide crystals exposed to a variable magnetic field

The physical-chemical processes caused by a variable magnetic field of strength 0.1 T and frequency 10 kHz in nonmagnetic silver-and lead-azide crystals are studied. The experiment shows slow decomposition accompanied with plastic deformation both under the action of the variable magnetic field and in post processes. The dependence of relative volume of gas released during post processes on the magnetic-field frequency is examined. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 1, pp. 103–106, January, 2006.     

Zero-energy state in graphene in a high magnetic field

The fate of the charge-neutral Dirac point in graphene in a high magnetic field H has been investigated at low temperatures (T approximately 0.3 K). In samples with small gate-voltage offset V0, the resistance R0 at the Dirac point diverges steeply with H, signaling a crossover to a state with a very large R0. The approach to this state is highly unusual. Despite the steep divergence in R0, the profile of R0 vs T in fixed H saturates to a T-independent value below 2 K, consistent with gapless charge-carrying excitations.     

Oscillations of a bubble separated from an air cavity under compression caused by magnetic field in a magnetic fluid

Based on the concept of mapping the free surface geometry of a weakly magnetic medium by the topography of isolines of the magnetic field strength magnitude, the shape of the free surface of a magnetic fluid is studied in the static state at two stages: the initial stage, where an annular magnet is moving toward the surface of the magnetic fluid column in a tube, and at the stage where the air cavity is pressed to the bottom. It is shown that the separation of bubbles from the air cavity occurs at the magnet axis in the immediate vicinity of the magnet symmetry plane. A method and an experimental setup are proposed to investigate possible electromagnetic indication of the size of air bubbles formed in the magnetic fluid. The results of an experimental study of bubble separation from an air cavity held in the magnetic fluid and compressed by the pondermotive forces of the magnetic field are discussed. The results may be of importance for designing a new technique for metering small gas shots to a reactor.     

Calculation of electric transport close to a Lifshitz transition in a high magnetic field

The effects of the Landau quantization and interactions on a Lifshitz transition are studied. The Landau quantization leads to a quasi-one-dimensional behavior for the direction parallel to the field. The repulsive Coulomb interactions give rise to a gas of strongly correlated carriers. Consequently, in the ground state, an electron pocket is emptied in a discontinuous fashion as a function of the chemical potential or magnetic field. This discontinuity is gradually smeared by temperature, in agreement with experiments for CeIn₃. We further calculate the conductivity and the Hall conductivity in the presence of nonmagnetic impurities, the Landau quantization and interactions.     

Interaction of a bubble and a bubble cluster in an ultrasonic field

Using an appropriate approximation, we have formulated the interacting equation of multi-bubble motion for a system of a single bubble and a spherical bubble cluster. The behavior of the bubbles is observed in coupled and uncoupled states. The oscillation of bubbles inside the cluster is in a coupled state. The numerical simulation demonstrates that the secondary Bjerknes force can be influenced by the number density, initial radius, distance, driving frequency, and amplitude of ultrasound. However, if a bubble approaches a bubble cluster of the same initial radii, coupled oscillation would be induced and a repulsive force is evoked, which may be the reason why the bubble cluster can exist steadily. With the increment of the number density of the bubble cluster, a secondary Bjerknes force acting on the bubbles inside the cluster decreases due to the strong suppression of the coupled bubbles. It is shown that there may be an optimal number density for a bubble cluster which can generate an optimal cavitation effect in liquid for a stable driving ultrasound.     

Dual equilibrium in a finite aspect ratio tokamak

A new approach to high pressure magnetically-confined plasmas is necessary to design efficient fusion devices. This Letter presents a new sort of equilibrium combining two solutions of the Grad-Shafranov equation, which describes the magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium in toroidal geometry. The outer equilibrium is paramagnetic and confines the inner equilibrium, whose strong diamagnetism permits to balance large pressure gradients. The existence of both equilibria in the same volume yields a dual equilibrium structure. This combination improves free-boundary mode stability.     

The excitonic spectrum of germanium in a high magnetic field

In recently reported experiments with uniaxially deformed germanium in a magnetic field [V. B. Timofeev and A. V. Chernenko, JETP Lett. 61, 617 (1995)], it was found that applying a magnetic field of sufficiently high intensity results in the appearance of a new line in the optical spectrum of the excitons. In the present paper a mechanism is proposed which can provide an explanation for this experimentally observed spectral feature. The new spectral line may be attributed to the formation of strongly bound biexcitonic molecules in the quantum state ³Π_u. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor.

Intraexcitonic transitions in two-dimensional systems in a high magnetic field

The internal transitions of two-dimensional (2D) excitons in a high magnetic field B exhibit features due to the coupling of the internal and center-of-mass motions. A study is made of these features, and it is shown that for magnetoexcitons with a center-of-mass momentum K ≠0 the energies of the strong transitions decrease with increasing K, and the absorption spectra show weakly resolved transitions, whose total intensity depends strongly on the exciton statistics (distribution function).
