Effective Hamiltonians for correlated narrow energy band systems and magnetic insulators: Role of spin-orbit interactions in metal-insulator transitions and magnetic phase transitions

Using a second-quantized many-electron Hamiltonian, we obtain (a) an effective Hamiltonian suitable for materials whose electronic properties are governed by a set of strongly correlated bands in a narrow energy range and (b) an effective spin-only Hamiltonian for magnetic materials. The present Hamiltonians faithfully include phonon and spin-related interactions as well as the external fields to study the electromagnetic response properties of complex materials and they, in appropriate limits, reduce to the model Hamiltonians due to Hubbard and Heisenberg. With the Hamiltonian for narrow-band strongly correlated materials, we show that the spin-orbit interaction provides a mechanism for metal-insulator transition, which is distinct from the Mott-Hubbard (driven by the electron correlation) and the Anderson mechanism (driven by the disorder). Next, with the spin-only Hamiltonian, we demonstrate the spin-orbit interaction to be a reason for the existence of antiferromagnetic phase in materials which are characterized by a positive isotropic spin-exchange energy. This is distinct from the Néel-VanVleck-Anderson paradigm which posits a negative spin-exchange for the existence of antiferromagnetism. We also find that the Néel temperature increases as the absolute value of the spin-orbit coupling increases.

Ferromagnetic resonance in a system of magnetic films with different Curie temperatures

The peculiarities of absorption of rf electromagnetic radiation (ferromagnetic resonance) in multilayer NiFe/Ni{sub 0.65}Cu{sub 0.35}(d)/CoFe structures in a wide temperature range are analyzed. It is shown that the type of interaction of the NiFe and CoFe ferromagnetic films via a “weak” ferromagnetic Ni{sub 0.65}Cu{sub 0.35} interlayer changes from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic upon cooling and a decrease in interlayer thickness d. The detected temperature dependence of the interlayer interaction indicates the possibility of observation of a strong magnetocaloric effect in the structures under investigation.

Pulsed Magnet Power Systems at NSLS-II

The National Synchrotron Light Source - II (NSLS-II) is a 3 GeV X-ray user facility with 29 beamlines. The NSLS-II pulsed power system consists of an event generator for timely injection and extraction of beam in the transport line from linac to booster at 170 MeV, and from booster to storage ring at 3 GeV. We will discuss current pulsed power systems and the future upgrades/improvements on those systems.

Development of the design concepts for a medium-scale wind tunnel magnetic suspension system

The magnitude of AC losses from a superconducting coil strongly indicates that the predicted scaling lawa are valid. The stainless steel bands around the test coil were the source of additional helium boiloff due to a transformer action and, hence, caused erroneously high AC loss measurements in the first run. However, removal of these bands for the second run produced data which are consistent with previous results on small scale multifilamentary superconducting coils.

Magnetic Despinning System

Electrical coil reduces spinning and tumbling speed of orbiting satellites through eddy-current braking. Induction of eddy currents into skin of satellite by electromagnetic field produces torques that oppose rotation.

The new eclipsing magnetic binary system E 1114 + 182

A comprehensive analysis of E 1114 + 182, the first eclipsing AM Herculis binary system and the shortest-period eclipsing cataclysmic variable known, is presented. The time-resolved X-ray observations which led to the system's recognition as an AM Her system with a roughly 90 minute orbital period are reported. The current optical photometric and polarimetric ephemeris and a description of the system's phase-modulated properties are given. The detailed photometric eclipse profile and the highly variable spectroscopic behavior are addressed. This information is used to determine systemic parameters and derive new information on the line emission regions. The data put severe constraints on current torque models for keeping the binary and white dwarf rotation in phase.

Design, construction, and testing of a five active axes magnetic bearing system

A high speed electric spindle based on active electromagnetic suspension technology has been designed, built, and tested. The main goal of the research work was the construction of a highly modular unit which can be used for teaching and research purposes. The design of the electromechanical components and of the control unit is described in detail, together with the characterization tests performed on the various subsystems. A description of the preliminary tests on the unit, conducted at speeds not in excess of the first deformation critical speed of the rotor, concludes the work.

The Avoidance of Saturation Limits in Magnetic Bearing Systems During Transient Excitation

When a transient event, such as mass loss, occurs in a rotor/magnetic bearing system, optimal vibration control forces may exceed bearing capabilities. This will be inevitable when the mass loss is sufficiently large and a conditionally unstable dynamic system could result if the bearing characteristic become non-linear. This paper provides a controller design procedure to suppress, where possible, bearing force demands below saturation levels while maintaining vibration control. It utilizes H(sub infinity) optimization with appropriate input and output weightings. Simulation of transient behavior following mass loss from a flexible rotor is used to demonstrate the avoidance of conditional instability. A compromise between transient control force and vibration levels was achieved.
