Influence of Co amount on the efficiency of energy absorption of Fe-Co ferrite nanoparticles

We present the chemical synthesis, structural characterization and efficiency of AC field energy absorption of Fe-Co ferrite particles sized between 35 and 100 nm and containing different cobalt amounts up to 3 wt%. Dynamic magnetic measurements in an AC field with frequency of 430 Hz and amplitude of up to 1200 Oe were performed for both solid and liquid dispersions of obtained particles. The energy absorption per one field cycle in function of the field amplitude and Co content was always bigger in liquid systems, under the same conditions, than in solid systems. The obtained results are of significance for the technology of low-frequency ferromagnetic hyperthermia of tumors.     

Highly Axial Magnetic Anisotropy in a N3O5 Dysprosium(III) Coordination Environment Generated by a Merocyanine Ligand

A spiropyran‐based switchable ligand isomerizes upon reaction with lanthanide(III) precursors to generate complexes with an unusual N₃O₅ coordination sphere. The air‐stable dysprosium(III) complex shows a hysteresis loop at 2 K and a very strong axial magnetic anisotropy generated by the merocyanine phenolate donor.     

Energy dissipation of a ring-like metal rubber isolator

Metal rubber （MR） is a kind of homogeneous poroelastic damping material made of metal wire. In this paper, by ana- lyzing the forces on the MR isolator and the MR element, the hysteresis loops of the force and deformation are studied and verified by experiments. The results show that the force and displacement hysteresis loop of the MR isolator is described by the force and deformation hysteresis loops of the MR elements. In addition, the relationship between the energy dissipation coefficient of the MR element and that of the MR isolator is derived. The energy dissipation coefficient is programmed and calculated by MATLAB using experimental data, and the results are compared with the theoretical value. It is the basis for the design and applied research of the MR isolator in a future study.     

Multi-reference calculations of the photodissociation of HSCH3 molecule

This paper performs multi-reference second-order perturbation theory calculations on the ground state and a number of low-lying excited states of HSCH3 molecule, and calculates the vertical excitation energies and low-energy potential-energy curves, based on which the photodissociation channels of HSCH3 at 193,222,248 nm are clarified.     

Studies of synthesizing behaviors and superconductivity of sol-gel YBa2Cu3O7-x samples in flowing oxygen atmosphere

Systematic studies of synthesizing behaviors of sol-gel YBa₂Cu₃O_7−x samples in flowing oxygen atmosphere and their superconductivity have been performed. A set of high temperature ρ-T curves has been obtained for the whole synthesizing process. After four rounds of synthesizing, the resistivity of the sample was around ρ=1.00×10⁻³Ω · cm at room temperature. The ρ-T curve of the fourth round shows that the orthorhombic to tetragonal phase transformation of the sample occurs around 600 °C, which is lower than that of the YBa₂Cu₃O_7−x sample prepared by conventional solid-state reaction method. Other measurements, such as X-ray diffraction, SEM measurement and low temperature R-T and M-T measurement, were also performed. And the R-T and M-T measurement results suggest that during the synthesizing process, there exist some state at which the sample has better superconductivity than the other states. Moreover, we found screw dislocations presenting on the sample broken surface from the SEM images. This will change the concept that the screw dislocations can only grow on the surface of the YBCO thin films and single crystals.      

Laser frequency stabilization based on Sagnac interferometric spectroscopy

A simple method based on Sagnac interferometric spectroscopy (SIS) is applied for frequency stabilization of diode lasers. Sagnac interferometric spectra of rubidium vapor are investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The interference signal at the output of the Sagnac interferometer displays a sharp dispersion feature near the atomic resonance. This dispersion curve is used as the feedback error signal to stabilize the laser frequency. Linewidth of a diode laser is stabilized down to 1 MHz by this modulation-free method.     

On systems of binomials in the ideal of a toric variety

Let be a toric set in the affine space . Given a set of binomials in the toric ideal of , we give a criterion for deciding the equality rad( ) = . This criterion extends to arbitrary dimension, and to arbitrary fields, an earlier result which concerned only monomial curves over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.

     

Arithmetic on superelliptic curves

This paper is concerned with algorithms for computing in the divisor class group of a nonsingular plane curve of the form which has only one point at infinity. Divisors are represented as ideals, and an ideal reduction algorithm based on lattice reduction is given. We obtain a unique representative for each divisor class and the algorithms for addition and reduction of divisors run in polynomial time. An algorithm is also given for solving the discrete logarithm problem when the curve is defined over a finite field.

     

The Sigmoidal Transfer Function and the Gain-Threshold Exponential Dependence for Neurons from Statistical Mechanics Treatment

Analogy is used to treat the system of non-interacting integrate-and-fire neurons as an ideal Fermi gas. It allows to obtain the nonlinear gain curve in the form of sigmoid in agreement with biological findings. As the by-product the gain-threshold mechanism in neurons is presented. Surprisingly enough, this is in agreement with new biological findings, too. Besides, the application of this mechanism to the dynamics of neurons leads to the non-monotone transfer function.
