A semi-3D method of calculating the magnetic field in a conventional sector-focused cyclotron
1991
Abstract A semi-3D method to calculate the median plane magnetic field in a conventional sector-focused cyclotron was developed in order to avoid the need of model magnet studies in the design of the Jyvaskyla K130 cyclotron. The method gives reasonably good results especially at high fields. At low fields where the relative permeability of iron is high the field can be calculated assuming constant magnetic scalar potential on the iron surfaces and solving a three-dimensional Laplace equation. The field calculation methods will be described and the comparison of calculated and measured fields will be given.
Towards an Improved Measurement of the Proton Magnetic Moment
2017
The BASE collaboration performed the most precise measurement of the proton magnetic moment. By applying the so-called double Penning-trap method with a single proton a fractional precision of 3.3 parts-per-billion was reached. This article describes the primary limitations of the last measurement and discusses improvements to reach the sub-parts-per-billion level.
Constraints on Spin-Dependent Short-Range Interaction between Nucleons
2013
We report on the search for a new spin-dependent P- and T-violating interaction between nucleons mediated by light, pseudoscalar bosons such as the axion which was invented to solve the strong CP problem. Our experimental approach is to use an ultra-sensitive low-field magnetometer based on the detection of free precession of co-located 3He and 129Xe nuclear spins using SQUIDs as low-noise magnetic flux detectors. In the presence of an unpolarized mass the precession frequency shif
Universal scaling for the quantum Ising chain with a classical impurity
2017
We study finite size scaling for the magnetic observables of an impurity residing at the endpoint of an open quantum Ising chain in a transverse magnetic field, realized by locally rescaling the magnetic field by a factor $\mu \neq 1$. In the homogeneous chain limit at $\mu = 1$, we find the expected finite size scaling for the longitudinal impurity magnetization, with no specific scaling for the transverse magnetization. At variance, in the classical impurity limit, $\mu = 0$, we recover finite scaling for the longitudinal magnetization, while the transverse one basically does not scale. For this case, we provide both analytic approximate expressions for the magnetization and the susceptib…
Very large magnetoresistance inFe0.28TaS2single crystals
2015
There is great interest in understanding the physics of magnetic ordering and electronic transport in materials of reduced dimensionality with strong spin-orbit coupling. This paper presents magnetotransport measurements of Fe${}_{0.28}$TaS${}_{2}$ single crystals, which are found to exhibit very large magnetoresistance (MR) for magnetic fields along the easy axis. The authors believe that such a large MR arises from spin disorder scattering and propose to use this mechanism as a design principle for materials with large MR. Further tests are needed to fully rule out contributions from a more conventional anisotropic MR mechanism.
Radiative signature of magnetic fields in internal shocks
2012
Common models of blazars and gamma-ray bursts assume that the plasma underlying the ob- served phenomenology is magnetized to some extent. Within this context, radiative signatures of dissipation of kinetic and conversion of magnetic energy in internal shocks of relativistic magnetized outflows are studied. We model internal shocks as being caused by collisions of homogeneous plasma shells. We compute the flow state after the shell interaction by solving Riemann problems at the contact surface between the colliding shells, and then compute the emission from the resulting shocks. Under the assumption of a constant flow luminosity we find that there is a clear difference between the models wh…
First observation of the ground-state hyperfine transition in 209Bi80+
2013
The long sought after ground-state hyperfine transition in lithium-like bismuth 209Bi80+ was observed for the first time using laser spectroscopy on relativistic ions in the experimental storage ring at the GSI Helmholtz Centre in Darmstadt. Combined with the transition in the corresponding hydrogen-like ion 209Bi82+, it will allow extraction of the specific difference between the two transitions that is unaffected by the magnetic moment distribution in the nucleus and can therefore provide a better test of bound-state QED in extremely strong magnetic fields.
Properties of small antiferromagnetic Ising clusters
1997
Magnetic properties of small antiferromagnetic clusters have been studied by using the Ising model with nearest-neighbour interactions. The number of atoms in the clusters varied between 6 and 30. Several cluster geometries were analysed in detail with the result that there is no generic phase diagram. In an external magnetic field magnetisation can increase with increasing temperature in a considerable temperature range. Magnetisation was found to strongly depend on both the overall geometry of the cluster and on the symmetry of the underlaying lattice structure.
Classical Heisenberg antiferromagnets with nearest and next-nearest neighbor interactions on the face-centered cubic lattice: a model for EuTe?
1989
Magnetic properties of the Heisenberg antiferromagnet with spin quantum numberS→∞ on the face-centered cubic lattice are studied as function of temperature and magnetic field, using molecular field approximation and Monte Carlo methods. In order to model Europiumtelluride, we use isotropic exchange interactions between nearest- and nextnearest neighbors; the values of these exchange constants are taken from experiments. In addition, a pseudo-dipolar anisotropy (truncated after the next-nearest neighbor distance) is included; the molecular field calculations also are performed with the full dipolar of real EuTe in two respects: the structure in zero magnetic field involves 8 sublattices in t…
Ultrafast Spin Dynamics in Antiferromagnets
2018
Antiferromagnets are promising materials for spintronics because they show fast magnetic dynamics, low susceptibility to magnetic fields, and produce no stray fields. In addition, the antiferromagnetic dynamics can be efficiently manipulated by spin and charge currents. Here we discuss spin and/or charge current induced dynamics of the antiferromagnetic textures (domain walls, skyrmions) and nanoparticles. We consider and analyse four types of torques which (spin) current can generate in an antiferromagnet with two magnetic sublattices. These torques can be classified as the staggered/nonstaggered (S/ NS) according to the effective spin accumulation at the magnetic sublattices and the field…
