چکیده

The capillary instability of a liquid crystalline cylinder in magnetic field is considered using an energy approach. The boundary problem is solved in the linear approximation of the anisotropy chi(a) of the magnetic susceptibility chi. The effect of anisotropy, in the region 1>> chi > chi(a) >> chi2, can be strong enough to counteract and even reverse the tendency of the field to enhance stabilization by enlarging the cutoff wave number k(s) beyond the conventional one set by Rayleigh.

Three-dimensional calculations of the magnetic fields in a finite superconducting hollow cylinder in an applied axial magnetic field

In this study, a set of self-consistent coupled-integral equations for the local magnetic flux and current distributions in a finite superconducting hollow cylinder under an axial magnetic field has been directly derived by using the Biot-Savart law within the framework of the critical-state model. The equations were first solved numerically in the three-dimensional space before obtaining the h...
