The total energy, atomic spin magnetic moments, and density of states (DOS) of Cu[C(CN)3]2 and Mn[C(CN)3]2 are all calculated. The calculations reveal that the compounds have a stable ferromagnetic ground state and half-metallic properties. The total spin magnetic moment is 1.0μB for Cu[C(CN)3]2 and 5.0#B for Mn[C(CN)3]e per molecule, the magnetic moment mainly comes from metal atoms, although there is a slight contribution from N and C atoms.展开更多

The reductive perturbation method is employed to reduce the basic set of fluid equations to the Kortewege-de Vries (KdV) equation. At the critical hot dusty plasma density Nho, the KdV equation is not appropriate for describing the system. Hence, a set of stretched coordinates is considered to derive the modified KdV equation. It is found that the presence of hot and cold dust charge grains not only significantly modifies the basic properties of solitary structure, but also changes the polarity of the solitary profiles. In the vicinity of the critical hot dusty plasma density Nho, neither KdV nor mKdV equation is appropriate for describing the DAWs. Therefore, a further modified KdV (fmKdV) equation is derived, which admits both soliton and double layer solutions.展开更多

It is found that the magnetic phase transition from the ground ferromagnetic (FM) state to the nonmagnetic (NM) state occurs at ~73 GPa. Based on the predicted Hugoniot of Fe3C, we calculate the sound velocities of FM-Fe3C and NM-Fe3C from elastic constants. Compared with pure iron, NM-FeaC provides a better match of compressional and shear sound velocities with the seismic data of the inner core, supporting carbon as one of the light elements in the inner core.展开更多

When a constant magnetic field perpendicular to the motion of electrons is applied, then the electrons rotate around the magnetic field lines and generate electromagnetic part in the wake with a nonzero group velocity. Using of the Maxwell equations and nonlinear differential equation for the electric field a direct one dimensional (ID) procedure for calculating wake equations are developed and the electric and magnetic field profile in the plasma are investigated.展开更多

The results showed that near the 0° sector the plasma density was negatively correlated with Dst index while the temperature was positively correlated with Dst index. The plasma velocity and magnetic field strength had little correlation with Dst index. Around the current sheet near the lunar orbit, the Bx varied between -15-15 nT, the plasma density was less than 0.4 cm^-3, the median of plasma density for all events was less than 0.1 cm^-3, the temperature varied from 0.016 to 8.98 keV, the median of the plasma temperature for all the events was -3 keV, the median of speed was about 200 km/s and the maximum speed was up to 1500 km/s. The tailward and earthward flows could be observed accompanied with the current sheet. For the current sheet cases with tailward flow, the Bx varied from -15 to 15 nT, the upper quartile of plasma velocity was more than 400 krn/s, the maximum speed was up to 1500 km/s. For the current sheet cases with tailward flow, the Bx varied from -10 to 10 nT, the upper quartile of plasma velocity was less than 400 km/s, the maximum speed was up to 1200 km/s. The median of plasma density, temperature and velocity were similar for the two categories. This paper discussed the relationship between above results and magnetic reconnection at magnetic tail, compared the above results with the observation in the far magnetotail. We fitted the statistical results according to the Harris current sheet model, and the observation was consistent with Harris current sheet model. The above results can provide useful information for the design and protection of lunar-orbiting spacecraft and can be used as the background magnetic field and plasma parameters in the numerical simulation of mid-magnetotail reconnection.展开更多

To do so, we calculated the radio spectral index, a (F oc va), which was obtained by fitting the averaged flux densities in the bands (4.8 GHZ, 8 GHz, and 14.5 GHz) by binning the original for 7 d. We also calculated the time delay between the averaged lightcurves and the spectral variance. Our calculations and analysis give the following results. 1) The averaged logarithmic flux density at 8 GHz (logF) and the corresponding spectral index (or) have strong correlation for all the BL Lacs; 2) the lightcurves and the spectral variability have the similar profile for all the BL Lacs; 3) the lightcurves delay spectral variability for all sources but PKS 0735+178, with the delay time ranging from 31 d to 125 d.展开更多

The relationship between ferrite magnetism and the carbon content is determined, and then a ferrite interstitial solid solution (ISS) model in a low carbon concentration state is replaced with an a-Fe model in the case of majority magnetic calculation. The band structure of the loaded α-Fe is compared with that of the unloaded a-Fe. The comparison shows that the energy of Fe atomic 3d orbital changes a little, while the energy of electron orbital of iron core below 3d almost keeps un- changed. The relationship between the magnetic moment and the stress appears intermittent due to the Bragg total reflection. The change in the magnetic moment due to lattice mismatch is much larger than that caused by mechanical loading.展开更多
