Afterglow light curves from magnetized GRB flows
2010
AbstractUsing the RMHD code MRGENESIS and the radiative transfer code SPEV we compute multiwavelength afterglow light curves of magnetized ejecta of gamma-ray bursts interacting with a uniform circumburst medium. We are interested in the emission from the reverse shock when ejecta magnetization varies from σ0 = 0 to σ0 = 1. For typical parameters of the ejecta, the emission from the reverse shock peaks for magnetization σ0 ~ 0.01 − 0.1, and is suppressed for higher σ0. We fit the early afterglow light curves of GRB 990123 and 090102 and discuss the possible magnetization of the outflows of these bursts. Finally we discuss the amount energy left in the magnetic field which is available for d…
Thickness and power dependence of the spin-pumping effect inY3Fe5O12/Pt heterostructures measured by the inverse spin Hall effect
2015
The dependence of the spin-pumping effect on the yttrium iron garnet $({\mathrm{Y}}_{3}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{5}{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$, YIG) thickness detected by the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) has been investigated quantitatively. Due to the spin-pumping effect driven by the magnetization precession in the ferrimagnetic insulator ${\mathrm{Y}}_{3}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{5}{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$ film a spin-polarized electron current is injected into the Pt layer. This spin current is transformed into electrical charge current by means of the ISHE. An increase of the ISHE voltage with increasing film thickness is observed and compared to the theoretically expected behavior. The effective damping parameter of t…
Spin states, vibrations and spin relaxation in molecular nanomagnets and spin qubits: a critical perspective
2018
Spin–vibration coupling has been proven to be crucial for spin dynamics; theoretical studies are now addressing this experimental challenge.
Excitation of singlet–triplet coherences in pairs of nearly-equivalent spins
2019
We present approaches for an efficient excitation of singlet–triplet coherences in pairs of nearly-equivalent spins. Standard Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) pulse sequences do not excite these coherences at all or with very low efficiency. The single quantum singlet–triplet coherences, here termed the outer singlet–triplet coherences, correspond to lines of low intensity in the NMR spectrum of a strongly-coupled spin pair (they are sometimes referred to as “forbidden transitions”), whereas the zero-quantum coherences, here termed the inner singlet–triplet coherences, do not have a direct spectral manifestation. In the present study, we investigated singlet–triplet coherences in a pair of …
Reservoir Computing with Random Skyrmion Textures
2020
The Reservoir Computing (RC) paradigm posits that sufficiently complex physical systems can be used to massively simplify pattern recognition tasks and nonlinear signal prediction. This work demonstrates how random topological magnetic textures present sufficiently complex resistance responses for the implementation of RC as applied to A/C current pulses. In doing so, we stress how the applicability of this paradigm hinges on very general dynamical properties which are satisfied by a large class of physical systems where complexity can be put to computational use. By harnessing the complex resistance response exhibited by random magnetic skyrmion textures and using it to demonstrate pattern…
Anatomy of spin–orbit torques

The use of time-resolved X-ray microscopy allows a direct visualization of the magnetization switching for nanomagnets under the effect of spin–orbit torques.
Magnetism-mediated transition between crystalline and higher-order topological phases in NpSb
2021
Merging the fields of topology and magnetism expands the scope of fundamental quantum phenomena with novel functionalities for topological spintronics enormously. Here, we theoretically demonstrate that ferromagnetism provides an efficient means to achieve a topological switching between crystalline and higher-order topological insulator phases in two dimensions. Using a tight-binding model and first-principles calculations, we identify layered NpSb as a long-awaited two-dimensional topological crystalline insulator with intrinsic ferromagnetic order with a band gap which is as large as 220 meV. We show that when ${\mathcal{M}}_{z}$ symmetry is preserved for the out of plane magnetization o…
The McCoy-Wu model in the mean-field approximation
1998
We consider a system with randomly layered ferromagnetic bonds (McCoy-Wu model) and study its critical properties in the frame of mean-field theory. In the low-temperature phase there is an average spontaneous magnetization in the system, which vanishes as a power law at the critical point with the critical exponents $\beta \approx 3.6$ and $\beta_1 \approx 4.1$ in the bulk and at the surface of the system, respectively. The singularity of the specific heat is characterized by an exponent $\alpha \approx -3.1$. The samples reduced critical temperature $t_c=T_c^{av}-T_c$ has a power law distribution $P(t_c) \sim t_c^{\omega}$ and we show that the difference between the values of the critical…
Finite-size scaling above the upper critical dimension revisited: The case of the five-dimensional Ising model
1999
Monte Carlo results for the moments of the magnetization distribution of the nearest-neighbor Ising ferromagnet in a L^d geometry, where L (4 \leq L \leq 22) is the linear dimension of a hypercubic lattice with periodic boundary conditions in d=5 dimensions, are analyzed in the critical region and compared to a recent theory of Chen and Dohm (CD) [X.S. Chen and V. Dohm, Int. J. Mod. Phys. C (1998)]. We show that this finite-size scaling theory (formulated in terms of two scaling variables) can account for the longstanding discrepancies between Monte Carlo results and the so-called ``lowest-mode'' theory, which uses a single scaling variable tL^{d/2} where t=T/T_c-1 is the temperature distan…
Thin Ising films with competing walls: A Monte Carlo study.
1995
Ising magnets with a nearest neighbor ferromagnetic exchange interaction J on a simple cubic lattice are studied in a thin film geometry using extensive Monte Carlo simulations. The system has two large L\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}L parallel free surfaces, a distance D apart from each other, at which competing surface fields act, i.e., ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathit{D}}$=-${\mathit{H}}_{1}$. In this geometry, the phase transition occurring in the bulk at a temperature ${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}\mathit{b}}$ is suppressed, and instead one observes the gradual formation of an interface between coexisting phases stabilized by the surface fields. While this interface is located in the center of th…
