The negative effects of mind-wandering on performance and mood have been widely documented. In a recent well-cited study, Killingsworth and Gilbert (2010) conducted a large experience sampling study revealing that all off-task episodes, regardless of content, have equal to or lower happiness ratings, than on-task episodes. We present data from a similarly implemented experience sampling study w...

Abstract. The Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation perturbed by a multiplicative spacedependent noise is considered for a ferromagnet filling a bounded three-dimensional domain. We show the existence of weak martingale solutions taking values in a sphere S. The regularity of weak solutions is also discussed. Some of the regularity results are new even for the deterministic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert e...

In this paper we derive a Gilbert-Varshamov type bound for linear codes over Galois rings GR(pl; j): However, this bound does not guarantee existence of better linear codes over GR(pl; j) than the usual Gilbert-Varshamov bound for linear codes over the residue class field GR(pj): Next we derive a Gilbert-Varshamov type bound for Z4 linear codes which guarantees the existence of Z4 linear codes ...

The precession and damping of a collinear magnetization displaced from its equilibrium are well described by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. The theoretical and experimental complexity of noncollinear magnetizations is such that it is not known how the damping is modified by the noncollinearity. We use first-principles scattering theory to investigate transverse domain walls (DWs) of the ...
