Abstract for Accelerator Magnets Magnetic Field Measurements

The chapter develops the formalism for the two-dimensional representation of the fields which are commonly found in accelerator magnets. The chapter describes the sense windings and associated components used in the precise measurement of these fields.

Projection-operator methods for classical transport in magnetized plasmas. Part 2. Nonlinear response and the Burnett equations [Projection-operator methods for classical transport in magnetized plasmas. Part 1. Nonlinear response and the Burnett equations]

The time-independent projection-operator formalism for the derivation of Burnett equations is extended and considered in the context of multispecies and magnetized plasmas. The procedure provides specific formulas for transport coefficients in terms of two-time correlation functions involving both two and three phase-space points. It is shown how to calculate those correlation functions in the limit of weak coupling. The results are used to demonstrate, with the aid of a particular non-trivial example, that the Chapman–Enskog methodology employed by Catto & Simakov (CS) (Phys. Plasmas, vol. 11, 2004, pp. 90–102) to calculate the contributions to the parallel viscosity driven by temperature gradients is consistent with formulas previously derived from the two-time formalism by Brey (J. Chem. Phys., vol. 79, 1983, pp. 4585–4598). Here, the work serves to unify previous work on plasma kinetic theory with formalism usually applied to turbulence. Additional contributions include discussions of (i) Braginskii-order interspecies momentum exchange from the point of view of two-time correlations; and (ii) a simple stochastic model, unrelated to many-body theory, that exhibits Burnett effects. Insights from that model emphasize the role of non-Gaussian statistics in the evaluation of Burnett transport coefficients, including the effects calculated by CS that stem from the nonlinear collision operator. Together, Parts 1 and 2 of this series provide an introduction to projection-operator methods that should be broadly useful in theoretical plasma physics.

Ab Initio Study of Vibronic and Magnetic 5f-to-5f and Dipole-Allowed 5f-to-6d and Charge-Transfer Transitions in [UX 6 ] n – (X = Cl, Br; n = 1, 2)

The absorption spectra of the octahedral [UX 6 ] n– (X = Cl, Br; n = 1, 2) complexes in the near-infrared (NIR) and UV–vis spectral regions were studied theoretically, using a relativistic restricted active space second-order perturbation theory (RASPT2) wavefunction framework, with the spin–orbit (SO) coupling treated by state interaction, in conjunction with Kohn–Sham density functional theory calculations for determining the vibrational normal modes. The electric-dipole-allowed ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT) and 5f-to-6d transitions, and the electric-dipole-forbidden 5f-to-5f ligand field (LF) transitions, are thereby obtained within the same theoretical framework. For the 5f-to-5f LF transitions, the observed absorption intensity is mostly due to vibronic coupling with low-energy electric-dipole-allowed transitions, but in some cases, the magnetic dipole intensity of the purely electronic transition has comparable intensity to the vibronic transitions. Here, experimental LF spectra of 5f 2 open-shell systems have been reported decades back, but ab initio calculations of their vibronic intensity have not yet been reported in the literature. Although the LF spectra for the 5f 2 systems can be assigned in detail, based on the calculations, the spectra are very complex and the underlying electronic states are strongly multiconfigurational. Therefore, the usefulness of the LF spectra beyond serving as a “fingerprint” of the LF and the metal oxidation state appears to be limited.
