Charge transport in AgI subject to an external magnetic field is studied via computer simulations. We demonstrate that a recently developed algorithm can effectively complement problematic experiments to detect the ionic Hall effect, and identify previousl ...
An anisotropic magnetic nanocomposite has been prepared by incorporating magnetite nanoparticles (average size: 19nm) in titania (TiO2) particles with a typical size of about 100nm, which are sub- sequently dispersed in a liquid epoxy monomer cured under a ...
We study fermion number non-conservation (or chirality breaking) in Abelian gauge theories at finite temperature. We consider the presence of a chemical potential mu for the fermionic charge, and monitor its evolution with real-time classical lattice simul ...
In the past decade, the engineering community has conceived, manufactured and tested micro-swimmers, i.e. microscopic devices which can be steered in their intended environment. Foreseen applications range from microsurgery and targeted drug delivery to en ...
This study presents the first evidence for FeOx intra-gap states on Bi2WO6- magnetized materials enhancing the Norfloxacin (NFX) degradation with respect to Bi2WO6 within acceptable times under indoor visible light (< 5 mW/cm(2)). The kinetically faster ph ...
Materials exhibiting a gradient in permittivity are synthesized through the application of an external magnetic field to a suspension of Fe3O4@TiO2 nanoparticles in an epoxy matrix. It is shown how the application of the magnetic field not only induces the ...
We describe our observation of strongly oriented total electronic angular momentum J in O(P-3(2)), Ne(P-3(2)), and He(S-3(1)) atoms emerging from a bent magnetic multipole guide, as measured by resonant multiphoton ionisation. This was contrary to our expe ...
Given the contact forms f and g, and the 1-form h, we discuss the existence of a vector field u verifying L-u(f)= d(u (right perpendicular) f)+ u (right perpendicular) df = h. This is closely related to the pullback equation, where we seek for a diffeomorp ...
We study the process of inflationary magnetogenesis in the natural single-field inflation model, whose parameters are chosen in accordance with the recent observations by the Planck collaboration [1]. The conformal invariance of the Maxwell action is broke ...
Magnetic materials can host skyrmions, which are topologically non-trivial spin textures. In chiral magnets with cubic lattice symmetry, all previously observed skyrmion phases require thermal fluctuations to become thermodynamically stable in bulk materia ...
