Measurements of the Generalized Electric and Magnetic Polarizabilities of the Proton at LowQ2Using the Virtual-Compton-Scattering Reaction
2006
Experimental details of a virtual Compton scattering (VCS) experiment performed on the proton at the MIT-Bates out-of-plane scattering facility are presented. The VCS response functions ${P}_{LL}\ensuremath{-}{P}_{TT}/\phantom{{P}_{TT}\ensuremath{\varepsilon}}\ensuremath{\varepsilon}$ and ${P}_{LT}$ have been measured at ${Q}^{2}=0.057\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}{\mathrm{GeV}}^{2}/{c}^{2}$. The generalized electric and magnetic polarizabilities, $\ensuremath{\alpha}({Q}^{2})$ and $\ensuremath{\beta}({Q}^{2})$, and the mean-square electric polarizability radius$\ensuremath{\langle}{r}_{\ensuremath{\alpha}}^{2}\ensuremath{\rangle}$ are obtained from a dispersion analysis of the data. The resu…
Winding loss analysis and optimization of an AC inductor for a galvanically isolated PV inverter
2012
This paper describes simple treatments for fringing fields of air gaps in the core and bypass fluxes in the winding window area of an existing high frequency AC inductor used by a commercial developer of PV inverters. For this purpose, Maxwell (ANSOFT) electromagnetic software package is used for winding eddy current loss analysis. It is displayed that air gaps cause high flux strength and, therefore, induce significantly high eddy currents to the surrounded windings. Proximity effect also causes non uniform current density in the winding. Altogether, the inductor is affected by fringing fields, and proximity effect produces a very high AC resistance, consequently resulting in undesirable h…

The electromagnetic field of an accelerated charge in the proper reference frame of a noninertial observer
1989
The Lienard-Wiechert formulae for the electric and magnetic fields of an accelerated charge moving along an arbitrary world-line are generalized so that they can be applied by noninertial observers using accelerating and rotating reference frames. For this purpose, a relativistic coordinate-independent formalism suggested by DeFacio, Dennis and Eetzloff is extended to the description of all kinematical aspects required in the theory of the retarded fields of a point charge. The generalized Lienard-Wiechert formula is applied to a number of special situations, demonstrating that it allows a lucid and concise treatment of a number of subtle problems such as the role of the «relativity of acce…
A Smoothed Particle Interpolation Scheme for Transient Electromagnetic Simulation
2006
In this paper, the fundamentals of a mesh-free particle numerical method for electromagnetic transient simulation are presented. The smoothed particle interpolation methodology is used by considering the particles as interpolation points in which the electromagnetic field components are computed. The particles can be arbitrarily placed in the problem domain: No regular grid, nor connectivity laws among the particles, have to be initially stated. Thus, the particles can be thickened only in distinct confined areas, where the electromagnetic field rapidly varies or in those regions in which objects of complex shape have to be simulated. Maxwell’s equations with the assigned boundary and initi…
Experimental demonstration of the physics of resonant cavities
2005
We describe an undergraduate experiment that demonstrates the physics of cavity resonators. A mobile wall lets students alter the position of the nodes, thus changing the mode pattern. The nodal structure is made apparent by placing a metallic plate at different positions inside the cavity. A technique for dielectric characterization also is introduced, which helps students understand the boundary conditions in dielectrics, as well as highlighting the characteristics of fields in cavities.
On the Mechanism of Low Frequency Bioelectromagnetism
2008
Results of investigations using simple physical models were presented. It is shown that physically exist small models that intensified low frequency electromagnetic field (EM). There are individual modes with definite symmetry. In the model cases we need some small background field for generations but in biological systems maybe there is some stabilizations factor. Experimental results and their biophysical aspects were discussed.
Measurement of lifetimes in Fe-62,Fe-64, Co-61,Co-63, and Mn-59
2017
Lifetimes of the 4(1)(+) states in Fe-62,Fe-64 and the 11/2(1)(-) states in Co-61,Co-63 and Mn-59 were measured at the Grand Accelerateur National d'Ions Lourds (GANIL) facility by using the Advanced Gamma Tracking Array (AGATA) and the large-acceptance variable mode spectrometer (VAMOS++). The states were populated through multinucleon transfer reactions with a U-238 beam impinging on a Ni-64 target, and lifetimes in the picosecond range were measured by using the recoil distance Doppler shift method. The data show an increase of collectivity in the iron isotopes approaching N = 40. The reduction of the subshell gap between the nu 2p(1/2) and nu 1g(9/2) orbitals leads to an increased popul…
D-0-(D-0)over-bar mixing in the weak-gauged U(4)(L)circle times U(4)(R) chiral Lagrangian model
1998
The D-0- mixing is analyzed in a weak gauged U(4)(L) x U(4)(R) chiral lagrangian model where the electroweak interaction is introduced as a gauge theory over the meson degrees of freedom. This model allows a particular realization of the G.I.M. mechanism and then could be useful in the study of processes where G.I.M. suppression is effective. As a test of the model we have also analyzed the K-0- mixing. We find am, in good agreement with the experimental result and we show that the D-0- mixing is very much suppressed in agreement with previous estimates in the Heavy Quark expansion framework.
Design and Study of a Wide-Band Printed Circuit Board Near-Field Probe
2021
Magnetic near-field probes (NFP) represent a suitable tool to measure the magnetic field level from a small electromagnetic interference (EMI) source. This kind of antenna is useful as a magnetic field probe for pre-compliance EMC measurements or debugging tasks since the user can scan a printed circuit board (PCB) looking for locations with strong magnetic fields. When a strong H-field point is found, the designer should check the PCB layout and components placement in that area to detect if this could result in an EMI source. This contribution focuses on analyzing the performance of an easy to build and low-cost H-field NFP designed and manufactured using a standard PCB stack-up. Thereby,…
