Magnetic field of bifilar lead

Results of cw⁶³Cu NMR measurements in dilute CuFe alloys containing from 0.01 up to 0.2 at.-% Fe are presented. The temperature was well above the Kondo temperature of this specimen. The broadening of the NMR line width is caused by the localized magnetic moment of the Fe impurities. The decreasing signal amplitude with increasing iron content is due to the quadrupolar interactions appearing simultaneously. The line broadening correspond strongly to that of the impurity susceptibility behaviour in CuFe. The quadrupolar disturbances are temperature independent. The influence of the simultaneously appearing magnetic and electric interactions on the spin lattice nuclear relaxation time is discussed.     

Determination of the magnetic field of a bifilar lead by means of the method of images

The method of the images has been applied to determine the magnetic field of a bifilar lead. Arbitrary dimensions of the conductors have been considered. The permeability of one of conductors has been assumed to be different from the free-space permeability.     

Forces acting on the conductors and inductance of a bifilar lead

Forces acting on the conductors and inductance of a bifilar lead are determined. The calculations are performed in the bipolar coordinate system on the base of previously obtained results.     

Magnetic susceptibility of lead sulphide

Magnetic susceptibility measurements were carried out on lead sulphide in the form of natural galena crystals, and in the form of crushed powder. The experimental molecular diamagnetic susceptibility value was found to be 93·27×10^?6 (in e.m.u./gm.mol.) for the single crystal and 81·84×10^?6 for the powdered material. Calculations based on a modified Slater-Angus method showed that the type of bonding is mainly covalent with a partial ionic character.     

Magnetic field tomography

Neutral atoms may be trapped via the interaction of their magnetic dipole moment with magnetic field gradients. One of the possible schemes is the cloverleaf trap. It is often desirable to have at hand a fast and precise technique for measuring the magnetic field distribution. We use for instantaneous imaging the equipotential lines of the magnetic field a diagnostic tool which is based on spatially resolved observation of the fluorescence emitted by a hot beam of sodium atoms crossing a thin slice of resonant laser light within the magnetic field region to be investigated. The inhomogeneous magnetic field spatially modulates the resonance condition between the Zeeman-shifted hyperfine sublevels and the laser light and therefore the amount of scattered photons. We apply this technique for mapping the field of our cloverleaf trap in three dimensions under various conditions. Received 20 March 2001 and Received in final form 12 May 2001     

Magnetic field effects in proteins

ABSTRACT

Many animals can sense the geomagnetic field, which appears to aid in behaviours such as migration. The influence of man-made magnetic fields on biology, however, is potentially more sinister, with adverse health effects being claimed from exposure to fields from mobile phones or high voltage power lines. Do these phenomena have a common, biophysical origin, and is it even plausible that such weak fields can profoundly impact noisy biological systems? Radical pair intermediates are widespread in protein reaction mechanisms, and the radical pair mechanism has risen to prominence as perhaps the most plausible means by which even very weak fields might impact biology. In this New Views article, I will discuss the literature over the past 40 years that has investigated the topic of magnetic field effects in proteins. The lack of reproducible results has cast a shadow over the area. However, magnetic field and spin effects have proven to be useful mechanistic tools for radical mechanism in biology. Moreover, if a magnetic effect on a radical pair mechanism in a protein were to influence a biological system, the conditions necessary for it to do so appear increasing unlikely to have come about by chance.     

Critical magnetic field of surface superconductivity in lead

The critical superconductivity field H _c3 is measured on lead single crystals. It is shown that the temperature dependence of H _c3/H _c in the vicinity of superconducting transition temperature T _c is essentially nonlinear. Relative changes in the value of H _c3/H _c reach approximately 30%, which cannot be described by the Ginzburg-Landau theory. The experimental temperature dependences lead to the conclusion that the surface superconducting transition temperature noticeably exceeds the superconducting transition temperature in the bulk of the semiconductor. The differences in the critical temperatures and in the Ginzburg-Landau parameters for lead are estimated.     

Magnetic field anisotropy based MR tractography

Non-invasive measurements of structural orientation provide unique information regarding the connectivity and functionality of fiber materials. In the present study, we use a capillary model to demonstrate that the direction of fiber structure can be obtained from susceptibility-induced magnetic field anisotropy. The interference pattern between internal and external magnetic field gradients carries the signature of the underlying anisotropic structure and can be measured by MRI-based water diffusion measurements. Through both numerical simulation and experiments, we found that this technique can determine the capillary orientation within 3°. Therefore, susceptibility-induced magnetic field anisotropy may be useful for an alternative tractography method when diffusion anisotropy is small at higher magnetic field strength without the need to rotate the subject inside the scanner.     

Magnetic system under a fluctuating field

We study nonequilibrium steady states, phase transitions and critical phenomena in a d-dimensional lattice model which represents a magnetic system under the action of a field fluctuating very rapidly with time. This induces competing kinetics which produces a sort of (dynamical) frustration which might occur also in some natural disordered systems. The exact solution for d = 1, partial exact results for d ≥ 2, and a comparison with some related models are reported.     

Magnetic field mapping in NMR imaging

The Hahn spin preparation sequence provides a practical means for rapid and sensitive mapping of magnetic field inhomogeneity in NMR imaging applications. Choice of the rf pulse delay times tau 1 and tau 2 as well as conditions and limitations on the proposed use of this sequence for chemical shift imaging are discussed.

Magnetic field generation from cosmological perturbations

In this Letter, we discuss the generation of magnetic field from cosmological perturbations. We consider the evolution of three component plasma (electron, proton, and photon) evaluating the collision term between electrons and photons up to the second order. The collision term is shown to induce electric current, which then generates magnetic field. There are three contributions, two of which can be evaluated from the first-order quantities, while the other one is fluid vorticity, which is purely second order. We estimate the magnitudes of the former contributions and show that the amplitude of the produced magnetic field is about approximately 10(-19) G at 10 Mpc comoving scale at the decoupling. Compared to astrophysical and inflationary mechanisms for seed-field generation, our study suffers from much less ambiguities concerning unknown physics and/or processes.
