On the Convergence to the Non-equilibrium Steady State of a Langevin Dynamics with Widely Separated Time Scales and Different Temperatures

Nicolas Macris, Emanuele Mingione, Diego Alberici

We study the solution of the two-temperature Fokker-Planck equation and rigorously analyse its convergence towards an explicit non-equilibrium stationary measure for long time and two widely separated time scales. The exponential rates of convergence are e ...

Field-controlled multicritical behavior and emergent universality in fully frustrated quantum magnets

Bruce Normand

Phase transitions in condensed matter are a source of exotic emergent properties. We study the fully frustrated bilayer Heisenberg antiferromagnet to demonstrate that an applied magnetic field creates a previously unknown emergent criticality. The quantum ...

Magnetic structure and magnetoelectric properties of the spin-flop phase in LiFePO4

Ellen Fogh, Sofie Janas, Paola Caterina Forino

We investigate the magnetic structure and magnetoelectric(ME) effect in the high -field phase of the antiferromagnet LiFePO 4 above the critical field of 31 T. A neutron diffraction study in pulsed magnetic fields reveals the propagation vector to be q = 0 ...

Maple leaf antiferromagnet in a magnetic field

Frédéric Mila, Pratyay Ghosh, Ronny Thomale

We analyze the quantum antiferromagnet on the maple leaf lattice in the presence of a magnetic field. Starting from its exact dimer ground state and for a magnetic field strength of the order of the local dimer spin-exchange coupling, we perform a strong-c ...

Measurement and modelling of dynamic fluid saturation in carbon reinforcements

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros, Guillaume Clément Broggi

We propose a methodology to monitor the progressive saturation of a non-translucent unidirectional carbon fabric stack through its thickness by means of X-ray radiography and extract the dynamic saturation curves using image analysis. Four constant flow ra ...

Nonlinear saturation of resistive tearing modes in a cylindrical tokamak with and without solving the dynamics

Joaquim Loizu Cisquella

We show that the saturation of resistive tearing modes in a cylindrical tokamak, as well as the corresponding island width, can be directly calculated with a magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equilibrium code without solving the dynamics and without considering r ...

Broadband spectroscopy and inelastic light scattering on the canted antiferromagnet hematite for antiferromagnetic magnonics

Mohammad Hamdi

Collective spin excitations propagating in magnetically ordered materials are called spin waves (SWs) or magnons. They are promising for low-power and beyond-CMOS information processing, which do not suffer from the ohmic losses. SWs in ferromagnets (antif ...
