Rotating vortex dipoles in ferromagnets
Vortex-antivortex pairs are localized excitations and have been found to be
spontaneously created in magnetic elements. In the case that the vortex and the
antivortex have opposite polarities the pair has a nonzero topological charge,
and it behaves as a rotating vortex dipole. We find theoretically, and confirm
numerically, the form of the energy as a function of the angular momentum of
the system and the associated rotation frequencies. We discuss the process of
annihilation of the pair which changes the topological charge of the system by
unity while its energy is monotonically decreasing. Such a change in the
topological charge affects profoundly the dynamics in the magnetic system. We
finally discuss the connection of our results with Bloch Points (BP) and the
implications for BP dynamics.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure
Contributions of spontaneous phase slippage to linear and non-linear conduction near the Peierls transition in thin samples of o-TaS_3
In the Peierls state very thin samples of TaS_3 (cross-section area \sim
10^{-3} mkm^2) are found to demonstrate smearing of the I-V curves near the
threshold field. With approaching the Peierls transition temperature, T_P, the
smearing evolves into smooth growth of conductance from zero voltage
interpreted by us as the contribution of fluctuations to the non--linear
conductance. We identify independently the fluctuation contribution to the
linear conductance near T_P. Both linear and non-linear contributions depend on
temperature with close activation energies \sim (2 - 4) x 10^3 K and apparently
reveal the same process. We reject creep of the {\it continuous} charge-density
waves (CDWs) as the origin of this effect and show that it is spontaneous phase
slippage that results in creep of the CDW. A model is proposed accounting for
both the linear and non-linear parts of the fluctuation conduction up to T_P.Comment: 6 pages, 5 Postscript figure, RevTeX, accepted for publication in PR
Human recombinant erythropoietin gradient dosage influence on ischemic and reperfusion liver injury
We investigate influence of human recombinant erythropoietin different dosage on blood flow velocity and morphological changes in liver during ischemic and reperfusion injury. It was proved what optimal preconditioning dosage is 50 IU/k
The 3d-to-4s-by-2p highway to superconductivity in cuprates
High-temperature superconductors are nowadays found in great variety and hold
technological promise. It is still an unsolved mystery that the critical
temperature T_c of the basic cuprates is so high. The answer might well be
hidden in a conventional corner of theoretical physics, overlooked in the
recent hunt for exotic explanations of new effects in these materials. A
forgotten intra-atomic s-d two-electron exchange in the Cu atom is found to
provide a strong (~eV) electron pairing interaction. A
Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer approach can explain the main experimental
observations and predict the correct d_{x^2-y^2} symmetry of the gap.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, LaTeX2
Study of the microcirculation level in bone with osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures during therapy with recombinant erythropoietin, rosuvastatin and their combinations
The experiment was carried out in female white Wistar rats. The effects of recombinant erythropoietin, rosuvastatin and their combination were investigated based on the blood supply to the bone after a modelled experimental osteoporosis. It was found that the studied drugs prevent decrease of bone microcirculation in cases of osteoporosis and in callus tissue in experimental osteoporotic fractures, positively influencing the course of reparative regeneration of bone tissu
Classical and relativistic dynamics of supersolids: variational principle
We present a phenomenological Lagrangian and Poisson brackets for obtaining
nondissipative hydrodynamic theory of supersolids. A Lagrangian is constructed
on the basis of unification of the principles of non-equilibrium thermodynamics
and classical field theory. The Poisson brackets, governing the dynamics of
supersolids, are uniquely determined by the invariance requirement of the
kinematic part of the found Lagrangian. The generalization of Lagrangian is
discussed to include the dynamics of vortices. The obtained equations of motion
do not account for any dynamic symmetry associated with Galilean or Lorentz
invariance. They can be reduced to the original Andreev-Lifshitz equations if
to require Galilean invariance. We also present a relativistic-invariant
supersolid hydrodynamics, which might be useful in astrophysical applications.Comment: 22 pages, changed title and content, added reference
Pharmacological correction of retinal ischemia/reperfusion by minoxidil
The objective of this paper was to increase the effectiveness of pharmacological correction of retinal ischemia-reperfusion by using minoxidil. Minoxidil at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg of rat mass protects the retina from ischemic-reperfusion injury. Protective effects of minoxidil are carried out by a preconditioning action, as evidenced by the lack of positive effects with the administration of glibenclamid
Fermion Analogy for Layered Superconducting Films in Parallel Magnetic Field
The equivalence between the Lawrence-Doniach model for films of extreme
type-II layered superconductors and a generalization of the back-scattering
model for spin-1/2 electrons in one dimension is demonstrated. This fermion
analogy is then exploited to obtain an anomalous tail for
the parallel equilibrium magnetization of the minimal double layer case in the
limit of high parallel magnetic fields for temperatures in the
critical regime.Comment: 11 pages of plain TeX, 1 postscript figur
