NONLINEAR KINETIC PHENOMENA UNDER POLARIZATION IN SOLID DIELECTRICS

Quantum mechanical theory of dynamic nuclear polarization in solid dielectrics.

Microwave driven dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) is a process in which the large polarization present in an electron spin reservoir is transferred to nuclei, thereby enhancing NMR signal intensities. In solid dielectrics there are three mechanisms that mediate this transfer--the solid effect (SE), the cross effect (CE), and thermal mixing (TM). Historically these mechanisms have been discuss...

Critical Nonlinear Phenomena for Kinetic Instabilities Near Threshold

A universal integral equation has been derived and solved for the nonlinear evolution of collective modes driven by kinetic wave particle resonances just above the threshold for instability. The dominant nonlinearity stems from the dynamics of resonant particles which can be treated perturbatively near the marginal state of the system. With a resonant particle source and classical relaxation pr...

Partial Discharge Detection in Solid Dielectrics

Partial Discharge (PD) measurement and characterization provide vital information on insulation condition, different aspects of insulation ageing useful for equipment integrity verification and diagnosis. The work demonstrates standard test methods which employs capture of PD parameters with the aid of discharge detector. This paper investigates on the voltage amplitude at which PD of a specifi...

Nonlinear phenomena in beamforming

In this paper we present a summary of nonlinear system level problems in beamforming. The paper summarizes first the nonideal phenomena in power amplifiers, mixers, and oscillators. In digital predistortion inversion of the nonlinearity is needed. Not all linear and nonlinear systems are invertible or they may have only a preinverse or postinverse. Commutation is needed in indirect learning arc...
