Magnetic materials, both hard and soft, are used extensively in several components of particle accelerators. Magnetically soft iron–nickel alloys are used as shields for the vacuum chambers of accelerator injection and extraction septa; Fe-based material is widely employed for cores of accelerator and experiment magnets; soft spinel ferrites are used in collimators to damp trapped modes; innova...

Two distinct polarised neutron techniques are applicable to the. study of magnetic diffuse scattering. The first, used for ferromagnetic alloys, employs a polarised incident beam without analysis of the outgoing polarisation. This method has been widely used, chiefly by the Oak Ridge group, to study moment disturbances in ferromagnetic binary transition metal alloys. The second technique involv...

Introduction: Glioblastoma multiform is the most common malignant brain tumor, with an invasive nature. Despite the development of conventional therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, because of high recurrence rates, the prognosis remains very poor. Over the last decade, nanotechnology has represented an innovative method as nanoparticle-based drug delivery ...

Major recent advances: Magnetic fluid rheology and flow advances in the past year include: (1) generalization of the magnetization relaxation equation by Shliomis and Felderhof and generalization of the governing ferrohydrodynamic equations by Rosensweig and Felderhof; (2) advances in such biomedical applications as drug delivery, hyperthermia, and magnetic resonance imaging; (3) use of the ant...

[1] A fraction of the total photospheric magnetic flux opens to the heliosphere to form the interplanetary magnetic field carried by the solar wind. While this open flux is critical to our understanding of the generation and evolution of the solar magnetic field, direct measurements are generally limited to single-point measurements taken in situ by heliospheric spacecraft. An observed latitude...

The in-plane resistivity and magnetization measurements as a function of the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field and the temperature are reported for single-crystal samples of the HoNi2B2C magnetic superconductor. Features corresponding to several distinct magnetic phases and the coexistence of superconductivity with two of the magnetic phases are observed. Contrary to previous measur...
