Intrinsic resonances and AC-dipole simulations of 3He in the AGS Booster

Polarized 3 He collisions are part of future RHIC physics programs and of the eRHIC project. The anomalous magnetic moment of 3 He (G=-4.184) is roughly three times greater than that of protons (G=1.793), a polarized species that is already used at the Collider-Accelerator complex at BNL. Because of the higher anomolous magnetic moment and possibly injecting into the AGS at rigidities beyond 7 T • m, 3 He may have to cross depolarizing intrinsic resonances while accelerating in the Booster. To overcome these strong intrinsic resonances we look to an AC-dipole, which will need to be installed in the Booster. An AC-dipole is a magnet that induces large betatron oscillations which forces the entire bunch to experience a stronger resonance and induce a spin flip of all particles. An artificial intrinsic resonance is created, with close proximity to the original intrinsic resonance, which requires simulations to gauge what magnet strength is required. Simulations have been performed using zgoubi regarding the resonances 0 + v y , 12 - v y , and 6 + v y and show that the AC-dipole is effective at overcoming these resonances. Benefits of avoiding the 0 + v y and crossing the 12 - v y and 6 + v y in the Booster presents the advantage of allowing injection above the 0 + v y in the AGS and minimizes the orbit distortions from the snakes.

Measurement of the Dispersion in the CeC Beamlines

The coherent electron cooling requires to match the relativistic factors of the hadron and electron beam within 10 -4 accuracy. Initial matching is based on the energy measurement of the electron beam using solenoid with accuracy about 10 -3 (the hadron relativistic factor can be found from the revolution frequency). Further matching is done with observation of the recombination rate with fine tuning based on the cooling rate. The last two steps require change of the electron energy which is achieved by change of the linac voltage. The interaction of the hadron and electron beams is affected by the transverse overlap of two beams. To minimize the effect, we need zero dispersion in the common section. The merge of the beams a dogleg transfer line is used containing two dipoles and three quadrupoles. The zeroing of dispersion is performed by settings of the quadrupoles. We have developed two ways to measure the dispersion. In the first mostly commonly used we change both dipoles by the same value creating the mismatch between the electron energy and bending magnet. In the compensated dogleg the position in the second dipole should not change, and the trajectory angle will change by the same amount as deflecting angle but in opposite direction. Therefore, the trajectory in the common section will not change. The value of the dispersion can be calculated from the beam displacement divided by the relative chang of the dipoles’ current. The second method is based on the change of the electron beam energy using linac. This method requires electron orbit alignment with linac axis to avoid beam steering. The results are shown in Fig.1 and Fig. 2. The first figure shows the dispersion prior the correction, and the second figure after the correction.

Dipolar Antiferromagnetism and Quantum Criticality in LiErF4

Magnetism has been predicted to occur in systems in which dipolar interactions dominate exchange. We present neutron scattering, specific heat, and magnetic susceptibility data for LiErF{sub 4}, establishing it as a model dipolar-coupled antiferromagnet with planar spin-anisotropy and a quantum phase transition in applied field H{sub c{parallel}} = 4.0 {+-} 0.1 kilo-oersteds. We discovered non-mean-field critical scaling for the classical phase transition at the antiferromagnetic transition temperature that is consistent with the two-dimensional XY/h{sub 4} universality class; in accord with this, the quantum phase transition at H{sub c} exhibits three-dimensional classical behavior. The effective dimensional reduction may be a consequence of the intrinsic frustrated nature of the dipolar interaction, which strengthens the role of fluctuations.

The latitudinal variation of the charge exchange induced atomic hydrogen escape flux

Using plasma data from the Isis 2 spacecraft and Arecibo radar, diffusive equilibrium models of the ionosphere were constructed for equinox conditions. These plasmaspheric models were combined with models of the neutral atmosphere to calculate the atomic hydrogen escape flux due to charge exchange between thermal protons and to calculate cooler hydrogen and oxygen atoms as a function of dipole latitude and local time. These calculations showed that the daytime escape flux increases as the absolute value of the dipole latitude decreases, reaching its maximum value at the magnetic equator. At 15 hours local time (LT) on March 23, 1972, the calculated escape flux varied from an insignificant amount at 55 deg dipole latitude, to 3 x 10 to the 8th atoms/sq cm sec at the magnetic equators.

Large radial shift experiments in RHIC and their implications for EIC design

The Hadron Storage Ring (HSR) in the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) must operate over a broad range of design circumferences. In 2018 preliminary beam studies on the circumference adjustment capabilities of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) were performed by applying a small momentum offset to the circulating bunches without adjusting any bending magnets. The off-momentum linear optics were corrected back to on-momentum conditions. Applying a similarly small deviation to the dipole fields of a select set of bending magnets provides a large radial shift over much of the RHIC (or HSR) circumference while leaving the design trajectory unchanged in the insertion regions. Here, this paper presents the design of the different lattice configurations foreseen as the most viable options for the required HSR circumference changes, and highlights the modifications necessary for regular operations and to allow for testing these new settings in RHIC. Experimental results from 2021 and 2022 are reviewed and compared to model predictions obtained from both MAD-X and Bmad. The implications of these results for HSR design are discussed.

Nuclear relaxation in an electric field enables the determination of isotropic magnetic shielding

It is shown that in contrast to the case of nuclear relaxation in a magnetic field B, simultaneous application of the magnetic field B and an additional electric field E causes transverse relaxation of a spin-1/2 nucleus with the rate proportional to the square of the isotropic part of the magnetic shielding tensor. This effect can contribute noticeably to the transverse relaxation rate of heavy nuclei in molecules that possess permanent electric dipole moments. Relativistic quantum mechanical computations indicate that for {sup 205}Tl nucleus in a Pt-Tl bonded complex, Pt(CN){sub 5}Tl, the transverse relaxation rate induced by the electric field is of the order of 1 s{sup −1} at E = 5 kV/mm and B = 10 T.

MAGSAT anomaly field inversion and interpretation for the US

Long wavelength anomalies in the total magnetic field measured by MAGSAT over the United States and adjacent areas are inverted to an equivalent layer crustal magnetization distribution. The model is based on an equal area dipole grid at the Earth's surface. Model resolution, defined as the closest dipole spacing giving a solution having physical significance, is about 220 km for MAGSAT data in the elevation range 300-500 km. The magnetization contours correlate well with large scale tectonic provinces. A higher resolution (200 km) model based on relatively noise free synthetic "pseudodata" is also presented. Magnetic anomaly component data measured by MAGSAT is compared with synthetic anomaly component fields arising from an equivalent source dipole array at the Earth's surface generated from total field anomaly data alone. An excellent inverse correlation between apparent magnetization and heat flow in the western U.S. is demonstrated. A regional heat flow map which is presented and compared with published maps, predicts high heat flow in Nebraska and the Dakotas, suggesting the presence of a "blind" geothermal area of regional extent.

A level scheme with three band structures has been established and their configurations are discussed. The positive-parity dipole band has been assigned as a magnetic rotation band. Particle-rotor model calculations have also been performed to interpret the rotational structures in {sup 112}In.

Magnetic interactions in strongly correlated systems: Spin and orbital contributions

We present a technique to map an electronic model with local interactions (a generalized multi-orbital Hubbard model) onto an effective model of interacting classical spins, by requiring that the thermodynamic potentials associated to spin rotations in the two systems are equivalent up to second order in the rotation angles, when the electronic system is in a symmetry-broken phase. This allows to determine the parameters of relativistic and non-relativistic magnetic interactions in the effective spin model in terms of equilibrium Green’s functions of the electronic model. The Hamiltonian of the electronic system includes, in addition to the non-relativistic part, relativistic single-particle terms such as the Zeeman coupling to an external magnetic field, spin–orbit coupling, and arbitrary magnetic anisotropies; the orbital degrees of freedom of the electrons are explicitly taken into account. We determine the complete relativistic exchange tensors, accounting for anisotropic exchange, Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interactions, as well as additional non-diagonal symmetric terms (which may include dipole–dipole interaction). The expressions of all these magnetic interactions are determined in a unified framework, including previously disregarded features such as the vertices of two-particle Green’s functions and non-local self-energies. We do not assume any smallness in spin–orbit coupling, so our treatment is in this sense exact. Finally, we show how to distinguish and address separately the spin, orbital and spin–orbital contributions to magnetism, providing expressions that can be computed within a tight-binding Dynamical Mean Field Theory.

Measurements of Siple transmitter signals on the DE 1 satellite - Wave normal direction and antenna effective length

A new experimental technique is developed to simultaneously measure the wave propagation direction and the effective length of a small (L value much smaller than wavelength) electric dipole antenna on a spin-stabilized satellite in the magnetosphere. The technique relies on the near simultaneous measurement of single components of the electric and magnetic fields of a coherent VLF signal injected into the medium from a ground-based source. The spin fading characteristics of the signal received by the electric dipole and the magnetic loop antenna permit the measurement of the wave normal direction assuming whistler-mode propagation. In-situ and remote measurements of the local cold plasma density are used to determine the refractive index. The wave electric field is then inferred from the wave magnetic field as measured on the loop antenna, the refractive index and the direction of propagation. Comparing this electric field with the measured voltage across the dipole antenna leads to the determination of the effective length of the receiving electric dipole. The technique is applied to data from the Dynamics Explorer 1 satellite observations of whistler mode signals injected into the magnetosphere from the Siple, Antarctica, VLF transmitter. In one case, with the measured background cold plasma density being 15 el/cu cm, the effective length of the 200 m-long electric dipole antenna is found to be 222 + or - 56 m, i.e., about twice the conventional value.

On the theory of the magnetoviscous effect in ferrofluids

The microscopic origin of viscoelastic effects in ferrofluids is studied theoretically. The growth kinetics of chain aggregates formed by magnetic ferroparticles under the action of the dipole-dipole interaction between them is analyzed. It is shown that the evolution rate for an ensemble of chains determines the rate of variation in the macroscopic stress of the medium upon a change in the applied external field and/or in the shear flow velocity. Consequently, the viscoelastic properties of magnetic fluids can be explained by the chain formation-destruction processes. The proposed microscopic model of a ferrofluid makes it possible (apparently, for the first time) to estimate the characteristic time of viscoelasticity corresponding to experimental results.

Identifying Photoinduced Dipolar Polarization and Orbit–Orbit Interaction between Excitons in Organic–Inorganic Hybrid Perovskites

Abstract Photoinduced polarization and orbit–orbit interaction are important issues in hybrid perovskites toward developing optoelectronic functionalities. This paper identifies that photoinduced polarization occurs in hybrid perovskites with mixed‐cation methylammonium (MA)/formamidinium (FA) (MA x FA (1− x ) PbI 3 ) by measuring bulk polarization at 1 MHz in a magnetic field. Interestingly, when the internal dipole moment is increased upon increasing the MA:FA ratio, the photoinduced dipolar polarization can be substantially enhanced, clarifying the controversial issue of whether photoexcitation can induce a dielectric polarization within dipolar polarization regime in hybrid perovskites. Furthermore, upon increasing photoinduced dipolar polarization, it is found that the intrinsic orbit–orbit interaction between excitons can be increased, revealed by monitoring photocurrent change (Δ J sc ) upon switching the photoexcitation between linear and circular polarizations. This presents that organic cations are directly involved in the orbit–orbit interaction within band structures. Clearly, the studies provide an insightful understanding of the dipole moment effects on photoinduced dipolar polarization and orbit–orbit interaction between excitons in hybrid perovskites toward controlling the optoelectronic properties.

Nanoscale Observation and Control of Quasiparticle Induced Magnetic Noise in a Superconducting Resonator

Superconducting circuits are arguably taking a leading role in driving the ongoing quantum technological revolution. A detailed knowledge of the microscopic fluctuating electromagnetic properties plays an important role in advancing the circuitry design, testing, and material integration of cutting-edge superconducting quantum electronics. Here, in this work, we report scanning nitrogen-vacancy (NV) quantum sensing of local magnetic noise environment of an on-chip superconducting resonator. We find that quasiparticle-induced fluctuating magnetic fields can drive NV spin relaxation, which shows a peak value around the superconducting transition point of niobium at the thermal equilibrium state. External microwave driving at the resonator mode frequency significantly increases the quasiparticle density, leading to enhancement of magnetic noise. We further perform optically detected magnetic resonance measurements to demonstrate quasiparticle magnetic noise mediated off-resonant dipole coupling between the NV center and niobium resonator. Our Letter reports experimental observation of the Hebel-Slichter peak signature by an external sensor outside of a superconductor. The presented study also highlights the advantages of quantum sensors in investigating miniaturized superconducting devices, providing insights into their future performance improvements.

Axion Induced Oscillating Electric Dipole Moment of the Electron

A cosmic axion, via the electromagnetic anomaly, induces an oscillating electric dipole for the electron of frequency ma and strength ~(few) x 10 -32 e-cm, two orders of magnitude above the nucleon, and within a few orders of magnitude of the present standard model constant limit. We give a detailed study of this phenomenon via the interaction of the cosmic axion, through the electromagnetic anomaly, with particular emphasis on the decoupling limit of the axion, ∂ t a(t) ∝ m α → 0. The analysis is subtle, and we find the general form of the action involves a local contact interaction and a nonlocal contribution, analogous to the “transverse current” in QED, that enforces the decoupling limit. We carefully derive the effective action in the Pauli-Schroedinger non-relativistic formalism, and in Georgi’s heavy quark formalism adapted to the “heavy electron” (m e >> m a ). We compute the electric dipole radiation emitted by free electrons, magnets and currents, immersed in the cosmic axion field, and discuss experimental configurations that may yield a detectable signal.

Large-scale Cosmic-Ray Anisotropy as a Probe of Interstellar Turbulence

We calculate the large-scale cosmic-ray (CR) anisotropies predicted for a range of Goldreich–Sridhar (GS) and isotropic models of interstellar turbulence, and compare them with IceTop data. In general, the predicted CR anisotropy is not a pure dipole; the cold spots reported at 400 TeV and 2 PeV are consistent with a GS model that contains a smooth deficit of parallel-propagating waves and a broad resonance function, though some other possibilities cannot, as yet, be ruled out. In particular, isotropic fast magnetosonic wave turbulence can match the observations at high energy, but cannot accommodate an energy dependence in the shape of the CR anisotropy. Our findings suggest that improved data on the large-scale CR anisotropy could provide a valuable probe of the properties—notably the power-spectrum—of the interstellar turbulence within a few tens of parsecs from Earth.

The effect of local magnetic fields on the lunar photoelectron layer while the moon is in the plasma sheet

Data from the Charged Particle Lunar Environment Experiment (CPLEE), at the Apollo 14 site, are used to investigate the interactive properties of the plasma sheet and the lunar photoelectron layer. It is shown that the predictions of the Guernsey-Fu model are compatible with SIDE but not CPLEE observations. The apparent contradiction is resolved by fitting the remanent magnetic field to that of a dipole buried about 1.1 km beneath the surface. In this case a charge separation layer must form above the instrument due to the different rigidities of plasma sheet electrons and protons. The qualitative properties of the charge separation layer needed to reconcile CPLEE and SIDE observations are presented.

Microwave emission from a sunspot. I - Implications for the sunspot magnetic structure

The magnetic field strength of a sunspot can be determined from the gyroresonance brightness temperature spectrum by using the property that microwave brightness is limited above a frequency given by an integer-multiple of the gyrofrequency. This concept is used to find the radial distribution of the magnetic field at the coronal base of a sunspot in the active region NOAA 4741. It is shown that the o-mode emission must arise primarily from the second harmonic of the gyrofrequency, and that the third harmonic is responsible for the x-mode emission. An expression is given to describe the radial distribution of magnetic fields at the coronal base of a sunspot. Coronal magnetic fields are found to originate mainly in the photospheric umbral region. Finally, while it is possible to approximate roughly the derived vertical variation of magnetic fields by means of a dipole model, the radial field distribution at coronal heights is determined to be more confined than predicted by this model.
