We have investigated the magnetic properties of three-dimensional topological insulators, doped with magnetic atoms. The spin-orbit locking of surface electrons results in interesting magnetic behaviors, absent in conventional insulators without spin-orbit coupling. In particular, the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition temperature has a strong dependence on different system parameters. Here,...

  By using Greens function method we first show that the effective interaction between two electrons mediated by plasmon exchange can become attractive which in turn can lead to superconductivity at a high critical temperature in a singl wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT). The superconducting transition temperature Tc for the SWCNT (3,3) obtained by this mechanism agrees with the recent experimental...

the west of esfahan province, iran, is one of the most important agricultural areas throughout the country due to the climate variability and life-giving water of zayanderood river. rice is one of the major and economic crops in this area. the most important climatic elements in agricultural activities which should be considered include temperature, relative humidity, precipitation and wind. so...
