We investigate a simplified model of two fully connected magnetic systems maintained at different temperatures by virtue of being connected to two independent thermal baths while simultaneously being interconnected with each other. Using generating functional analysis, commonly used in statistical mechanics, we find exactly soluble expressions for their individual magnetization that define a tw...

In this work we introduce a system for 2-port microwave calibration at millikelvin temperatures operating at the coldest stage of a dilution refrigerator by use of an adapted thru-reflect-line algorithm. We show that this can be an effective tool for characterizing common 50 Ω microwave components with better than 0.1 dB accuracy at temperatures that are relevant to many current experiments in ...

We investigate the well-posedness, the exponential stability, or the lack thereof, of thermoelastic systems in materials where, in contrast to classical thermoelastic models for Kirchhoff type plates, two temperatures are involved, related by an elliptic equation. The arising initial boundary value problems for different boundary conditions deal with systems of partial differential equations in...

We study the stationary nonequilibrium regime which settles in when two single-spin paramagnets each in contact with its own thermal bath are coupled. The response vs. correlation plot exhibits some features of aging systems, in particular the existence, in some regimes, of effective temperatures.

freezing causes changes on chemical and microbial quality of butter. in this research, effects of two different temperatures -9 and -18oc on changes of moisture, fat, acidity and peroxide value and also coliform and psychrotrophic microorganisms in frozen butter were studied. results showed that values of moisture and fat during 7 months of frozen storage at two temperatures decreased 1.8% and ...
