Magnetization vector field in a uniaxial ferromagnetic film

Technical Physics - Analytical models for the magnetization vector field B m in a uniaxial ferromagnetic film are studied. Some of them are found to closely approximate B m even if the quality...     

Attenuation of electromagnetic waves in a semiconductor superlattice in a magnetic field

Magnetoplasma waves and inhomogeneous (complex) waves in an infinite semiconductor superlattice in a magnetic field are studied, and dispersion curves are obtained. It is shown analytically and numerically that, in periodic structures, among inhomogeneous waves, there are many complex waves for which the imaginary part of the wave vector is greater than the real part. The effect of dissipation in a medium on the dispersion curves of magnetoplasma waves is examined. The dependence of the minimum phase velocity on the collision frequency and the magnetic field strength is studied.     

Controlling the diffusion process via time-variable diffusion coefficient

The establishment of the steady-state dopant profile in a medium with a time-variable diffusion coefficient is considered within the approach proposed previously for estimating mass-and heat-transfer time characteristics. It is shown that the time it takes for the equilibrium concentration to set in may be increased or decreased by appropriately choosing the law of variation of the diffusion coefficient.     

The structure and phase composition of stabilized zirconia-based nanosystems exposed to shock-wave treatment

The special features of the structure and phase composition of nanocrystalline zirconia-based powders subjected to shock-wave treatment are studied. The investigations show that zirconia with small amounts of yttria and/or alumina is in nanocrystalline and quasi-amorphous states representing a nonequilibrium solid solution of ZrO2 (Y, Al) and that an increase in the monoclinic phase abundance is associated with a reduction in the critical size of tetragonal crystallites due to an accumulation of lattice microdistortions. The monoclinic phase in powders with yttria and alumina additions is not formed even with shock compression at pressures up to 20 GPa. This is attributed to the fact that the resultant lattice microdistortion level is inadequate to destabilize the nanocrystalline tetragonal phase. Relaxation of microdistortions on annealing causes the critical size of tetragonal crystallites to increase. As this takes place, the monoclinic phase is converted into the tetragonal one.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 9, pp. 61–70, September, 2004.     

Determination of the glueball mass spectrum with allowance for spin-orbital interactions

The mass spectrum of a coupled state is analytically determined. The mechanism of production of a constituent mass of particles forming a coupled state is explained. The change of the coupled state and constituent particle component masses attendant to changes of the coupling constant is analyzed. The mass spectrum of a two-gluon glueball is determined with allowance for spin-orbital and spin-spin interactions.__________Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 12, pp. 33–41, December, 2004.

Electrophysical and Thermal Parameters of Thermal Plasma in a High-Frequency Induction Discharge

A semiempirical model is proposed for the calculation of electrical, magnetic and thermal parameters of the plasma of a high-frequency induction discharge. The model is based on solving a system of two-dimensional Maxwell equations written for a cylindrical coordinate system.     

Special Theory of Relativity in Electrodynamics

A method of teaching of one of the divisions of electrodynamics devoted to relativity theory is suggested. The presentation is based on the four-dimensional formalism, which allows a number of fundamental physical phenomena to be considered from a unified position. The content is in full conformity with the approved standard programs for students and postgraduates of radio physical and radio technical specialities of universities. The methods can be useful to the teachers, scientific workers, and engineers concerned with other directions and specialities.
