Manipulating Skyrmion Motion on a Nanotrack with Varied Material Parameters and Tilted Spin Currents

Magnetic skyrmions are topological quasiparticles with nanoscale size and high mobility,which have potential applications in information storage and spintronic devices.The manipulation of skyrmion’s dynamics in the track is an important topic due to the skyrmion Hall effect,which can deviate the skyrmions from the preferred direction.We propose a new model based on the ferromagnetic skyrmion,where the skyrmion velocity can be well controlled by adjusting the direction of the current.Using this design,we can avoid the annihilation of the skyrmion induced by the skyrmion Hall effect,which is confirmed by our micromagnetic simulation based on Mumax^(3).In the meantime,we increase the average velocity of the skyrmion by varying the intrinsic material parameters in the track,where the simulations agree well with our analytical results based on the Thiele equation.Finally,we give a phase diagram of the output of the skyrmion in the T-type track,which provides some practical ways for design of logic gates by manipulating crystalline anisotropy through the electrical control.

Localized nonlinear waves in a myelinated nerve fiber with self-excitable membrane

We systematically study the evolution of modulated nerve impulses in a myelinated nerve fiber, where both the ionic current and membrane capacitance provide the necessary nonlinear feedbacks. This is achieved by using a perturbation technique, in which the Liénard form of the modified discrete Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation is reduced to the complex Ginzburg–Landau amplitude equation. Three distinct values of the capacitive feedback parameter are considered. At the critical value of the capacitive feedback parameter, it is shown that the dynamics of the system is governed by the dissipative nonlinear Schr?dinger equation. Linear stability analysis of the system depicts the instability of plane waves,which is manifested as burst of modulated nerve impulses that fulfills the Benjamin–Feir criteria. Variations of the capacitive feedback parameter generally influences the plane wave stability and hence the type of wave profile identified in the neural network. Results of numerical simulations mainly confirm the propagation, collision, and annihilation of nerve impulses in the myelinated axon.

The Electromagnetic Operator of Mass

Studying the source of particle properties is the most important goal for scientists, so it was necessary to use the means available to us, which is physical logic to study these properties. In this paper, you will examine how the type of coordinates in which electromagnetic fields are distributed can have a role in detecting particle properties, specifically using the Riemann-Silberstein vector. Because electromagnetism it deals with electric and magnetic fields together for any electromagnetic sentence, and when we study it according to multiple coordinates and study its derivation by changing coordinates, we discover how the electromagnetic sentences are transformed from one particle to another.

Based on the derived solitary wave excitation, we obtain some special annihilation solitons and chaotic solitons in this short note.

Comparison and analysis of dislocation density, morphology and evolution in microstructure of low-carbon steel produced using different technologies

Three kinds of specimens were produced from hot strips of similar composition and same thickness (nominal gauge 4.0mm) but produced using different technologies, and the dislocation density of these strips was quantitatively measured by positron annihilation technique test. The dislocation morphology and evolution in microstructure of each pass for producing the 1.9mm hot strip using CSP (compact strip production) technology were observed under an H-800 transmission electron microscope; its density was also quantitatively measured using the positron annihilation technique test, and the factors influencing the dislocation density during the production process were analyzed. The experimental results show that the dislocation density in the microstructure produced using CSP technology is higher than that in the microstructure produced using conventional technology. This result was discussed and confirmed on the basis of the finite element simulation and the theory relevant to dislocations.

Quantitative analysis on strengthening mechanism of ultra-thin hot strip of low carbon steel produced by CSP technique

Based on experimental data of positron annihilation technology, electrolyticdissolution technique, electron back-scattered pattern, etc. and by analysis the strengtheningfactors, the strengthening mechanism of ultra-thin hot strip of low carbon steel produced by CSP(Compact Strip Production) technique was investigated. The value of each strengthening mechanism andits contribution percentage to yield strength were achieved. The results show that refinementstrengthening is the predominant strengthening mode; precipitation strengthening and dislocationstrengthening are second to it, their contributions to yield strength are almost equal.

Littlest Higgs Model and Spin Correlation of Top Quark Production at High Energy Linear e^＋e^- Colliders

Based on the littlest Higgs model, we investigate the spin correlation of the top quark pair production via the process e^＋e^- →tt at the high energy linear e^＋e^- collider （ILC） with a centre-of-mass energy √S = 800 GeV. Our numerical results show that the gauge boson ZH generates very small corrections to the spin correlation observable C in all the parameter space allowed by the electroweak data. However, with reasonable values of the free parameters, the value of the relative correction parameter RBH = （CBH-CSM）/CSM can reach 10%, which might be detected in future ILC experiments.

Some Studies on Quasi AP-injective Modules

Let R be a ring. R is called right AP-injective if, for any a E R, there exists a left ideal of R such that lr（a） = Ra＋Xa. We extend this notion to modules. A right R-module M with S = End（MR） is called quasi AP-injective if, for any s∈S, there exists a left ideal Xs of S such that ls（Ker（s）） = Ss＋Xs. In this paper, we give some characterizations and properties of quasi AP-injective modules which generalize results of Page and Zhou.

Effect of pulsed current on AZ31B magnesium sheets during annealing

The annealing tests heated by pulsed current(PC)or furnace for AZ31B magnesium sheets were carried out,and the effects of PC on the microstructure and dislocation density of the alloy were analyzed.The results show that PC strengthens the migration of boundaries,and then the twin grains,most of which distribute in the coarse grains,“spheroidize”to equiaxed grains,thus separating the coarse grains and refining the microstructure.This process homogenizes the initial microstructure and eliminate the typically lamellar twin grains.Moreover,PC also strengthens the dislocation annihilation.When the specimens were annealed by PC at 300℃for 4 min,the dislocation density was even lower than that annealed by furnaces at 400℃for 3 h before deformation.Furthermore,dislocation annihilation is enhanced with the increase of peak current density and the decrease of pulsed frequency.

Positron Annihilation Mechanism Correlated with Microstructure of C60-Contained Chitosan

Positron annihilation lifetime spectra measurements were performed on C_(60)-containing chitosan as a function of temperature ranging from 290 to 380K.Both the ortho-positronium annihilation lifetimeт_(3) and its intensity Is increase with increasing temperature,however,the values of I_(3) in C_(60)-containing chitosan are smaller than that in pure chitosan,and the slope ofт_(3) with temperature is also suppressed after C_(60) linked.The existing three models for positron annihilation in polymer have been compared to analyze the experiment result.It is realized that only the spur reaction model,combined with the free volume model,can explain it satisfactorily.The ortho-positronium lifetime and intensity were affected by the local physicochemical environment of material,i.e.,free-volume structure,electron scavenging and trapping sites,etc.The linked C_(60) that play a significant chemical inhibition and quenching role on positronium formation and annihilation isfirst observed.The microstructure change brought by C_(60) group has also been discussed.

DAMAGE OF SILICONE RUBBER INDUCED BY PROTON IRRADIATION

In this paper, the damage to methyl silicone rubber induced by irradiation with protons of 150 keV energy wasstudied. The surface morphology, tensile strength, Shore hardness, cross-linking density and glass transition temperaturewere examined. Positron annihilation lifetime spectrum analysis (PALS) was perfomed to reveal the damage mechanisms ofthe rubber. The results showed that tensile strength and Shore hardness of the rubber increased first and then decreased withincreasing irradiation fluence. The PALS characteristics τ_3 and I_3, as well as the free volume V_f, decreased with increasingirradiation fluence up to 10^(15) cm^(-2), and then increased slowly. It indicates that proton irradiation causes a decrease of freevolume in the methyl silicone rubber when the fluence is less than 10^(15)cm^(-2), while the free volume increases when thefluence is greater than 10^(15)cm^(-2). The results on cross-linking density indicate that the cross-linking induced by protonirradiation is dominant at smaller proton fluences, increasing the tensile strength and Shore hardness of the rubber, while thedegradation of rubber dominates at greater fluence, leading to a decrease of tensile strength and Shore hardness.

Composite optical vortices in noncollinear Laguerre–Gaussian beams and their propagation in free space

Taking two Laguerre-Gaussian beams with topological charge 1 = ±1 as an example, this paper studies the composite optical vortices formed by two noncollinear Laguerre-Gaussian beams with different phases, amplitudes, waist widths, off-axis distances, and their propagation in free space. It is shown by detailed numerical illustrative examples that the number and location of composite vortices at the waist plane are variable by varying the relative phase β, amplitude ratio η, waist width ratio ξ, or off-axis distance ratio μ. The net topological charge lnet is not always equal to the sum lsum of charges of the two component beams. The motion, creation and annihilation of composite vortices take place in the free-space propagation, and the net charge during the propagation remains unchanged and equals to the net charge at the waist plane.

Radiative Decays of Charmonium into Light Mesons

We apply perturbative QCD to the radiative decays of charmonia J/ψ and χcJ into light mesons. We perform a complete numerical calculation for the quark-gluon loop diagrams involved in these processes. The calculated J/ψ decay branching ratios into p-wave mesons f2（1270） and f1（1285） fit the data well, while that of fo（980） （if treated as an ss meson） is predicted to be 1.6×10^-4, which implies that f0（1710） can not be the ss or （uu＋dd）/√2 meson. Decays of p-wave charmonia χcJ→ρ（ω;φ）γ （J = 0, 1, 2） are also studied, and the branching ratio of χc1→ργ is predicted to be 1.4×10^-5, which may be tested by CLEO-c collaboration and BESlg collaboration with future experiments.

Strong Self-Similar Fluctuations of Target Fragments in Ring-like Events in Ultra-Relativistic Nuclear Collision

The intermittent fluctuation of target evaporated particles is studied in both ring-like and jet-like events emitted in ^32 S-emulsion interactions at 200 A Ge V within the framework of multi-dimensional factorial moment methodology using the concept of the Hurst exponent. It is observed that the intermittent fluctuation in the ring-like event is self-similar, whereas in the jet-like event fluctuation is self-affine. However, study indicates that the strength of fluctuation in the ring-like events is much stronger than that in the jet-like events.

RADIATION DAMAGES OF PHOTODEVICE AND ITS SUBSTRATE MATERIAL

γ-radiation damage study of photodevice and its substrate shows that γ-radiation makes the light current, current amplification factor and respond time of devices decreased, dark current increased, but junction capacitance unchanged basicly. The resistivity of substrate was slowly increased. The analysis of positron annihilation lifetime spectra demonstrated that the second lifetime component τ2 was reduced, but the corresponding intensity I2 raised. Those indicate the macroscopic and microscopic changes in substrate after γ-irradiation.

Preparation and Structural Characterization of Polystyrene-Rectorite Nanocomposites

The polystyrene/rectorite nanocomposites were prepared by free radical polymerization of styrene containing dispersed organophilic rectorite. The structures and thermal properties of these hybrids have been investigated by X\|ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared (FT\|IR), positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques. It was found that exfoliation of rectorite in polystyrene (PS) matrix was achieved. The average free\|volume radius in the PS/clay nanocomposites is generally same as that in PS. Along with increment of rectorite contents, the interface between rectorite and polystyrene matrix increases, and the free\|volume concentration decreases obviously. And the polystyrene nanocomposites have higher thermal decomposition temperature than pure PS.

Effects of Flavour-Dependent qq Annihilation on the Mixing Angle of the Isoscalar Octet-Singlet and Schwinger’s Nonet Mass Formula

By incorporating the flavour-dependent quark--antiquark annihilation amplitude into the mass-squared matrix describing the mixing of the isoscalar states of a meson nonet,the new version of Schwinger's nonet mass formula,which holds with a high accuracy for the 0^(-+),1^(--),2^(++),2^(-+)and 3^(--)nonets,is derived and the mixing angle of the isoscalar octet--singlet for these nonets is obtained.In particular,the mixing angle of the isoscalar octet-singlet for the pseudoscalar nonet is determined to take the value of-12.92°,which is in agreement with the value range from-13°to-17°deduced from a rather exhaustive and up-to-date analysis of data.It is also pointed out that the omission of the flavour-dependent qq annihilation effect might be a factor resulting in the invalidity of Schwinger’s original nonet mass formula for the pseudoscalar nonet.

POSITRON ANNIHILATION AND CONDUCTIVITY MEASUREMENTS ON POLYANILINE

The positron lifetime spectra and electrical conductivities have been measured for polyaniline as a function of protonation level ([H+] from 10-7-1000.8 mol/L). Weobserved that (1) the short lifetime τ1, which was related to electron density in bulk,decreased with the protonation level; (2) the intermediate lifetime τ2≈360ps, almost remaining constant, whereas its intensity I2 increased with increasing protonation level which was related to the conductivity of material. These results are discussed in terms of conducting island model.

INFLUENCE OF THE ALIGNMENT OF TiO_2 NANOPARTICLES ON OPTICAL AND STRUCTURAL PROPERTIES OF POLY(PHENYLENEVINYLENE) FILMS

A series of poly(phenylenevinylene) (PPV)/titanium oxide (TiO_2)nanocomposites with different contents of TiO_2 nanoparticles were prepared from mixtures of PPVprecursor and titanium butoxide ethanol solution in a sol- gel process. TEM images showed theformation of the connected network of TiO_2 nanoparticles with a higher content of TiO_2, whichresulted in the titanium butoxide hydrolyzed to form Ti organic compound. Meanwhile, the conjugationof PPV polymer chains can be interrupted by the TiO_2 network structure. The PL spectra revealedthat the emitted light of the PPV/TiO_2 nanocomposites blue shifted without fine structure and thePL intensity enhanced when the TiO_2 network formed. In the lifetime spectroscopy of positronannihilation, the structural properties of the PPV dominated the character of the nanocomposites, inwhich the formation of the omicron -Ps was presented in free volume polymer, when the content ofTiO_2 was below 10 percent. Further increasing the content of TiO_2 nanoparticle introduced muchmore vacancies, vacancy clusters and grain boundaries at their interfaces, which led to thecorresponding lifetime and intensity close to that of the nano- TiO_2 bulk materials. With the TiO_2content of 50 percent of long lifetime. These phenomena suggested that the optical and structuralproperties of the PPV/TiO_2 nanocomposites are dependent on the interfacial structure between PPVand TiO_2 nanoparticles.
