In spin-driven ferroelectrics, the electric polarization is often modified by the application of a magnetic field. RMnO3 (R = Tb, Dy) is a well known multiferroic with electric polarization along the c-axis induced by the cycloidal ordering of Mn spin moments in the bc plane, which can be explained by the inverse effect of Dzyaloshinski-Moriya interaction. RMnO3 exhibits an electric-polarizatio...

Gravitational lensing by a spinning deflector in translational motion relative to the observer is discussed in the weak field, slow motion approximation. The effect of rotation, which generates an intrinsic gravito-magnetic field, separates from that due to radial motion. Corrections to the lens equation, deflection angle and time delay are derived.

In this talk, we discuss several topics related to the Abelian-projected SU(3)-QCD. First of them is the Aharonov-Bohm effect emerging during the extension of this theory by the introduction of the Θ-term. Another topic is devoted to various consequences of screening of the dual vector bosons by electric vortex loops. In particular, it is demonstrated that this effect modifies significantly the...

The case of a hard type II superconductor in the form of strip with elliptic cross-section when placed in transverse magnetic field is studied. We approach the problem in two steps, both based on the critical-state model. First we calculate numerically the penetrated current profiles that ensure complete shielding in the interior, without assuming an a priori form for the profiles. In the secon...

Nonhelical hydromagnetic turbulence without an imposed magnetic field is considered in the case where the magnetic Prandtl number is unity. The magnetic field is entirely due to dynamo action. The magnetic energy spectrum peaks at a wavenumber of about 5 times the minimum wavenumber in the domain, and not at the resistive scale, as has previously been argued. Throughout the inertial range, the ...

nicu alloy nanowires arrays were embedded into the anodic aluminum oxide (aao) template by ac-pulse electrodeposition. different off-time were used in electrolyte with constant concentration of ni and cu and acidity of 3. the effect of deposition parameters on alloy contents was investigated by studying the microstructure and magnetic properties of as-deposited nicu alloy nanowires. atomic forc...

in this study, the level of cations and anions of saline soil leaching was investigated in laboratory conditions by using of magnetic water. silty loam soil was poured in 50 cm height and 10 cm diameter pipes while the end of each pipe was closed with a filter paper and a plastic net. leaching was conducted alternatively after passing water through the magnetic field with different intensities....

Cross-corrugated triangular channels increase heat transfer in heat exchangers. The mixing effect increases the heat transfer coefficient at the surfaces. In this study, the fluid flow and heat transfer in a triangular corrugated channel are modeled under two constant heat fluxes and different Reynolds numbers. In order to validate, k-ω turbulence model is used. Also, the effect of magnetic fie...

In this study, effects of numerous physical quantities like dissipation, thermal radiation, and induced magnetic field on magnetohydrodynamic Casson fluid flow through a vertical plate is addressed. The non-dimensional multivariable governing equations are solved numerically by by means of Runge-Kutta method along with shooting technique. The behavior of velocity, temperature and induced magnet...

We discuss the ordinary quantum Hall effect and a higher-dimensional cousin. We consider the dimensional reduction of these effects to 1+1 and 3 + 1 space-time dimensions, respectively. After dimensional reduction, an axion field appears, which plays the rôle of a space-time dependent difference of chemical potentials of chiral modes. As applications, we sketch a theory of quantum pumps and a m...
