Stimuli responsive hybrid magnets : tuning the photoinduced spin-crossover in Fe(III) complexes inserted into layered magnets

2013

The insertion of a [Fe(sal_2 trien)]^+ complex cation into a 2D oxalate network in the presence of different solvents results in a family of hybrid magnets with coexistence of magnetic ordering and photoinduced spin crossover (LIESST effect) in compounds [Fe^{III}(sal_2 trien)][Mn^{II}Cr^{III}(ox)_3]·CHCl_3 (1·CHCl_{3}) [Fe^{III}(sal_{2} trien)][Mn^{II}Cr^{III}(ox)_{3}]·CHBr_{3} (1·CHBr_{3}) and [Fe^{III}(sal_{2} trien)][Mn^{II}Cr^{III}(ox)_{3}]·CH_{2}Br_{2} (1·CH_{2}Br_{2}). The three compounds crystallize in a 2D honeycomb anionic layer formed by Mn^{II} and Cr^{III} ions linked through oxalate ligands and a layer of [Fe(sal_{2} trien)]^{+} complexes and solvent molecules (CHCl_{3} CHBr_{…

Determining the source and eruption dynamics of a stealth CME using NLFFF modelling and MHD simulations

2021

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that exhibit weak or no eruption signatures in the low corona, known as stealth CMEs, are problematic as upon arrival at Earth they can lead to geomagnetic disturbances that were not predicted by space weather forecasters. We investigate the origin and eruption of a stealth event that occurred on 2015 January 3 that was responsible for a strong geomagnetic storm upon its arrival at Earth. To simulate the coronal magnetic field and plasma parameters of the eruption we use a coupled approach. This approach combines an evolutionary nonlinear force-free field model of the global corona with a MHD simulation. The combined simulation approach accurately reproduces th…

MHD simulations of the in situ generation of kink and sausage waves in the solar corona by collision of dense plasma clumps

2019

Funding: This research has received funding from the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council (Consolidated Grant ST/K000950/1) and the European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement No. 647214). P.A. acknowledges funding from his STFC Ernest Rutherford Fellowship (No. ST/R004285/1). This research was supported by the Research Council of Norway through its Centres of Excellence scheme, project number 262622. Context. Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves are ubiquitous in the solar corona where the highly structured magnetic fields provide efficient wave guides for their propagation. While MHD waves have been observed originating from lower layers of the solar …

A new MHD-assisted Stokes inversion technique

2016

©2017 The American Astronomical Society. All rights reserved. We present a new method of Stokes inversion of spectropolarimetric data and evaluate it by taking the example of a Sunrise/IMaX observation. An archive of synthetic Stokes profiles is obtained by the spectral synthesis of state-of-the-art magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations and a realistic degradation to the level of the observed data. The definition of a merit function allows the archive to be searched for the synthetic Stokes profiles that best match the observed profiles. In contrast to traditional Stokes inversion codes, which solve the Unno–Rachkovsky equations for the polarized radiative transfer numerically and fit the …

Magnetized relativistic jets and helical magnetic fields

2021

This is the first of a series of two papers that deepen our understanding of the transversal structure and the properties of recollimation shocks of axisymmetric, relativistic, superfast magnetosonic, overpressured jets. They extend previous work that characterized these properties in connection with the dominant type of energy (internal, kinetic, or magnetic) in the jet to models with helical magnetic fields with larger magnetic pitch angles and force-free magnetic fields. In this paper, the magnetohydrodynamical models were computed following an approach that allows studying the structure of steady, axisymmetric, relativistic (magnetized) flows using one-dimensional time-dependent simulat…

Functional Plasticity after Unilateral Vestibular Midbrain Infarction in Human Positron Emission Tomography.

2016

The aim of the study was to uncover mechanisms of central compensation of vestibular function at brainstem, cerebellar, and cortical levels in patients with acute unilateral midbrain infarctions presenting with an acute vestibular tone imbalance. Eight out of 17 patients with unilateral midbrain infarctions were selected on the basis of signs of a vestibular tone imbalance, e.g., graviceptive (tilts of perceived verticality) and oculomotor dysfunction (skew deviation, ocular torsion) in F18-fluordeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET at two time points: A) in the acute stage, and B) after recovery 6 months later. Lesion-behavior mapping analyses with MRI verified the exact structural lesion sites. Group su…
