High-temperature magnetic and optical properties of CdTe-MnTe superlattices

We present a study of magnetic and magneto-optical properties of CdxTe12x-MnTe superlattices up to the room temperature. A comparison of low-temperature exciton Zeeman effect and the measurements of the magnetization performed by superconducting quantum interface device magnetometer shows a perfect agreement with a model description, thus allowing for determination of Mn content profiles width ...

Spectroscopic measurements of Zeeman splitting of the density of states in high temperature superconducting tunneling junctions

Generalized theory of ion impact broadening in magnetized plasmas and its applications for tokamaks.

A generalized semiclassical theory of ion impact broadening in high-temperature, magnetized plasmas is developed that is free from a shortcoming of the standard semiclassical theories of Stark broadening, which were intrinsically divergent at small impact parameters. The convergence of the present theory is achieved by taking into account, on equal footing, both the "dynamic" splitting of Stark...

A new probe of magnetic fields during high-mass star formation Zeeman splitting of 6.7 GHz methanol masers

Context. The role of magnetic fields during high-mass star formation is a matter of fierce debate, yet only a few direct probes of magnetic field strengths are available. Aims. The magnetic field is detected in a number of massive star-forming regions through polarization observations of 6.7 GHz methanol masers. Although these masers are the most abundant of the maser species occurring during h...

Lithium Polarization Spectroscopy: Making Precision Plasma Current Measurements in the Diii-d National Fusion Facility

Due to several favorable atomic properties (including a simple spectral structure, the existence of a visible resonance line, large excitation cross section, and ease of beam formation), beams of atomic lithium have been used for many years to diagnose various plasma parameters. Using techniques of active (beam-based) spectroscopy, lithium beams can provide localized measurements of plasma dens...
