We present a general analysis of the effective potential for neutrino propagation in matter, assuming a generic set of Lorentz invariant non-derivative interactions. We find that in addition to the known vector and axial vector terms, in a polarized medium also tensor interactions can play an important role. We compute the effective potential arising from a tensor interaction. We show that the ...

Resonant tunneling process in an (InGa)As-(InAl)As syInrnetric double-barrier

We discuss the appearance of Zeno (QZE) or anti-Zeno (QAE) effect in an exponentially decaying system. We consider the quantum dynamics of a continuously monitored two level system interacting with a squeezed bath. We find that the behavior of the system depends critically on the way in which the squeezed bath is prepared. For specific choices of the squeezing phase the system shows Zeno or ant...

The thin-disc global asymptotics are discussed for axisymmetric meanfield dynamos with vacuum boundary conditions allowing for non-local terms arising from a finite radial component of the mean magnetic field at the disc surface. This leads to an integro-differential operator in the equation for the radial distribution of the mean magnetic field strength, Q(r) in the disc plane

The Hall resistivity and magnetization have been investigated in the ferromagnetic state of the bilayered manganite La2−2xSr1+2xMn2O7 (x=0.36). The Hall resistivity shows an increase in both the ordinary and anomalous Hall coefficients at low temperatures below 50K, a region in which experimental evidence for the spin glass state has been found in a low magnetic field of 1mT. The origin of the ...

Low error measurements at the Arecibo Observatory (at 318MHz) of the weighted average interstellar magnetic field projected on the line of sight 〈B‖〉 and of the Rotation Measure in the direction of several pulsars were done using a new method. This method is based on the measurement of the period of the temporal modulation in the linearly polarized component of the pulsar pulse observed in a wi...

The effects of viscosity on a steady, radial, spherically symmetric solar wind with an embedded, non-radial magnetic field are reconsidered. The correct expression for the classical viscosity in the presence of a non-radial magnetic field is shown to be different from that used in the past, and a means of describing non-classical viscosity is presented. A physical interpretation of the classica...
