Dielectric tensor for interfaces and individual layers in magnetic multilayer structures" (2000). The magneto-optical Kerr response of metallic magnetic multilayers has been studied by determining the dielectric tensors ͑dielectric functions͒ for individual layers, including the magnetic and nonmagnetic interfacial layers. The diagonal components of these tensors were determined using in situ ell...

A theory is presented for the mass transport induced by a small-amplitude progressive wave propagating in water over a thin layer of viscoelastic mud modelled as a Voigt medium. Based on a sharp contrast in length scales near the bed, the boundary-layer approximation is applied to the Navier–Stokes equations in Lagrangian form, which are then solved for the first-order oscillatory motions in th...

After Pieter Zeeman had discovered in the fall of 1896 that an external magnetic field causes spectral lines to split in several components,1 the logical next step was to investigate whether an electric field would also have an influence on the shape or frequency of spectral lines. The first to publish the results of a systematic theoretical investigation of the possible effect of electric fiel...
