We report the direct detection by three THEMIS spacecraft of a magnetic flux rope flanked by two active X lines producing colliding plasma jets near the center of the flux rope. The observed density depletion and open magnetic field topology inside the flux rope reveal important three-dimensional effects. There was also evidence for nonthermal electron energization within the flux rope core whe...

We show that simple laser configurations can give rise to "optical flux lattices," in which optically dressed atoms experience a periodic effective magnetic flux with high mean density. These potentials lead to narrow energy bands with nonzero Chern numbers. Optical flux lattices will greatly facilitate the achievement of the quantum Hall regime for ultracold atomic gases.

in this paper, we study the electronic properties of a concentric triple quantum ring using exact diagonalization technique. the energy spectra and magnetization for a single electron and two electrons, in the presence of an applied magnetic field, are calculated and discussed. it is shown that, for two-interacting electrons, the period of aharonov-bohm oscillations decreases to the half of tha...

performing fast and accurate methods for modeling the electrical machines has been the subject of several studies and many authors proposed different procedures to attain this aim. beside the accuracy, the speed of the method is of great concern. on the other hand, the capability of the method to be changed according to the need is another important issue. finite element method provides relativ...

Aims. We study the magnetohydrostatic equilibrium of magnetic flux tubes with circular cross sections embedded in a magnetic surrounding atmosphere. Methods. We solve the static momentum equation in 2.5D to obtain the thermodynamics that are consistent with a prescribed velocity and magnetic fields. Results. We show that force balance is roughly satisfied if the flux tube’s magnetic field is al...

We present magneto optical studies of the critical state in YBa2Cu3O7-δ (YBCO) thick films prepared using BaF2 ex-situ post reaction process. A fractal-like propagation was observed as the magnetic flux entering the superconducting films, in striking contrast to the behavior expected of a uniform type II superconducting film in the critical state. However, by averaging the flux density over a c...

We present cross-sectional conductivity and current density images of an animal subject using a 3T Magnetic Resonance Electrical Impedance Tomography (MREIT) system. We injected currents into a postmortem 10Kg piglet in two different directions and measured the induced magnetic flux densities using a 3T MRI scanner. In order to handle defects in the measurements due to MR signal void in a gas-f...

Attaining a controlled output strain and utilizing a full potential of active material are the significant factors to design Terfenol-D actuator devises such as active damping devices, high speed hydraulic valve actuators, large-force linear motors and large torque rotating motors. To achieve this, a high magnetic biasing field is required in an actuator. The present work attempts to propose a ...
