Spin transport in ferromagnetic/normal-metal tunnel junction arrays
2012
Published version of an article in the journal: Physical Review B. Also available from the publisher:http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.85.094421 An array of alternating ferromagnetic and normal-metal islands separated by small tunnel junctions is theoretically investigated in the sequential tunneling regime. A numerical Monte Carlo method is used to calculate the transport properties. The spin-dependent tunneling currents give rise to nonequilibrium spin accumulation on the normal island. The tunneling magneto resistance (TMR) is calculated for a large range of array parameters. The TMR oscillates with bias voltage and can become negative for certain array parameters. We show that the long…
The Fučík spectrum for nonlocal BVP with Sturm–Liouville boundary condition
2014
Boundary value problem of the form x''=-μx++λx-, αx(0)+(1-α)x'(0)=0, ∫01 x(s)ds=0 is considered, where μ,λ∈ R and α∈ [0,1]. The explicit formulas for the spectrum of this problem are given and the spectra for some α values are constructed. Special attention is paid to the spectrum behavior at the points close to the coordinate origin.
Discovery of a jet-like structure with overionized plasma in the SNR IC443
2018
IC443 is a supernova remnant located in a quite complex environment since it interacts with nearby clouds. Indications for the presence of overionized plasma have been found though the possible physical causes of overionization are still debated. Moreover, because of its peculiar position and proper motion, it is not clear if the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) within the remnant is the relic of the IC443 progenitor star or just a rambling one seen in projection on the remnant. Here we address the study of IC443 plasma in order to clarify the relationship PWN-remnant, the presence of overionization and the origin of the latter. We analyzed two \emph{XMM-Newton} observations producing background-su…
On the critical behavior for inhomogeneous wave inequalities with Hardy potential in an exterior domain
2021
Abstract We study the wave inequality with a Hardy potential ∂ t t u − Δ u + λ | x | 2 u ≥ | u | p in ( 0 , ∞ ) × Ω , $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \partial_{tt}u-{\it\Delta} u+\frac{\lambda}{|x|^2}u\geq |u|^p\quad \mbox{in } (0,\infty)\times {\it\Omega}, \end{array}$$ where Ω is the exterior of the unit ball in ℝ N , N ≥ 2, p > 1, and λ ≥ − N − 2 2 2 $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \left(\frac{N-2}{2}\right)^2 \end{array}$ , under the inhomogeneous boundary condition α ∂ u ∂ ν ( t , x ) + β u ( t , x ) ≥ w ( x ) on ( 0 , ∞ ) × ∂ Ω , $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \alpha \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu}(t,x)+\beta u(t,x)\geq w(x)\quad\mbox{on } (0,\infty)\times \partial{\it\Omega}, \e…
Observation of the Resonant Character of theZ(4430)−State
2014
Resonant structures in B-0 -> psi'pi K--(+) decays are analyzed by performing a four-dimensional fit of the decay amplitude, using pp collision data corresponding to 3 fb(-1) collected with the LHCb detector. The data cannot be described with K+pi(-) resonances alone, which is confirmed with a model-independent approach. A highly significant Z(4430)(-) -> psi'pi(-) component is required, thus confirming the existence of this state. The observed evolution of the Z(4430)(-) amplitude with the psi'pi(-) mass establishes the resonant nature of this particle. The mass and width measurements are substantially improved. The spin parity is determined unambiguously to be 1(+).
On the metal abundances inside mixed-morphology supernova remnants: the case of IC 443 and G166.0+4.3
2009
Recent developments on the study of mixed morphology supernova remnants (MMSNRs) have revealed the presence of metal rich X-ray emitting plasma inside a fraction of these remnant, a feature not properly addressed by traditional models for these objects. Radial profiles of thermodynamical and chemical parameters are needed for a fruitful comparison of data and model of MMSNRs, but these are available only in a few cases. We analyze XMM-Newton data of two MMSNRs, namely IC443 and G166.0+4.3, previously known to have solar metal abundances, and we perform spatially resolved spectral analysis of the X-ray emission. We detected enhanced abundances of Ne, Mg and Si in the hard X-ray bright peak i…
On a differential system arising in the network control theory
2016
We investigate the three-dimensional dynamical system occurring in the network regulatory systems theory for specific choices of regulatory matrix { { 0, 1, 1 } { 1, 0, 1 } { 1, 1, 0 } } and sigmoidal regulatory function f(z) = 1 / (1 + e-μz), where z = ∑ Wij xj - θ. The description of attracting sets is provided. The attracting sets consist of respectively one, two or three critical points. This depends on whether the parameters (μ,θ) belong to a set Ω or to the complement of Ω or to the boundary of Ω, where Ω is fully defined set.
Photoproduction ofZ(4430)through mesonic Regge trajectories exchange
2011
The recently discovered $Z(4430)$ mesonic resonance is believed to be a strong tetraquark candidate. The photoproduction in the channel $\ensuremath{\gamma}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{Z}^{+}(4430)n\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\psi}}^{'}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}n$ has been proposed as the most effective way to confirm the $Z(4430)$ presence and to measure its quantum numbers. In this work we present a model for high-energy and forward-angle $Z(4430)$ photoproduction in a effective Lagrangian approach. This model is based on the use of Regge trajectories exchange, thus a Regge propagator replaces the usual Feynman propagator. The differential and total cross sections and the asymmetries ha…
Model-independent confirmation of theZ(4430)−state
2015
The decay $B^0\to \psi(2S) K^+\pi^-$ is analyzed using $\rm 3~fb^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data collected with the LHCb detector. A model-independent description of the $\psi(2S) \pi$ mass spectrum is obtained, using as input the $K\pi$ mass spectrum and angular distribution derived directly from data, without requiring a theoretical description of resonance shapes or their interference. The hypothesis that the $\psi(2S)\pi$ mass spectrum can be described in terms of $K\pi$ reflections alone is rejected with more than 8$\sigma$ significance. This provides confirmation, in a model-independent way, of the need for an additional resonant component in the mass region of the $Z(4430)^-$ exotic sta…
Search for theZ(4430)−atBABAR
2009
We report the results of a search for Z(4430)^- decay to J/Ψ π^- or Ψ(2S)π^- in B(^-.0)→ J/Ψ π^-K^(0.+) and B^(-.0) → Ψ(2S)π^-K^(0.+) decays. The data were collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider operating at center-of-mass energy 10.58 GeV, and the sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 413 fb^(-1). Each K π^- mass distribution exhibits clear K^*(892) and K_2^*(1430) signals, and the efficiency-corrected spectrum is well described by a superposition of the associated Breit-Wigner intensity distributions, together with an S-wave contribution obtained from the LASS I=1/2 K π^- scattering amplitude measurements. Each K π^- angular dist…
