Exchange Currents for Hypernuclear Magnetic Moments
The meson(K and ) exchange currents for the hypernuclear magnetic
moments are calculated using the effective Lagrangian method. The seagull
diagram, the mesonic diagram and the -excitation diagram are
considered. The -N exchange magnetic moments for the
, and are calculated
employing the harmonic oscillator shell model. It is found that the two-body
correction is about -9% of the single particle value for .
The exchange current, induced only in the -excitation diagram,
is found to give dominant contribution for the isovector magnetic moments of
hypernuclei with A=6.Comment: 11pp, LaTeX, 7 EPS figures, uses epsf.st
Ferroelectric polarization flop in a frustrated magnet MnWO induced by magnetic fields
The relationship between magnetic order and ferroelectric properties has been
investigated for MnWO with long-wavelength magnetic structure. Spontaneous
electric polarization is observed in an elliptical spiral spin phase. The
magnetic-field dependence of electric polarization indicates that the
noncollinear spin configuration plays a key role for the appearance of
ferroelectric phase. An electric polarization flop from the b direction to the
a direction has been observed when a magnetic field above 10T is applied along
the b axis. This result demonstrates that an electric polarization flop can be
induced by a magnetic field in a simple system without rare-earth f-moments.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Joint effect of lattice interaction and potential fluctuation in colossal magnetoresistive manganites
Taking into account both the Jahn-Teller lattice distortion and the on-site
electronic potential fluctuations in the orbital-degenerated double-exchange
model, in which both the core-spin and the lattice distortion are treated
classically, we investigate theoretically the metal-insulator transition (MIT)
in manganites by considering the electronic localization effect. An inverse
matrix method is developed for calculation in which we use the inverse of the
transfer matrix to obtain the localization length. We find that within
reasonable range of parameters, both the lattice effect and the potential
fluctuation are responsible to the occurrence of the MIT. The role of the
orbital configuration is also discussed.Comment: 4 figure
Nuclear Mass Dependence of Chaotic Dynamics in Ginocchio Model
The chaotic dynamics in nuclear collective motion is studied in the framework
of a schematic shell model which has only monopole and quadrupole degrees of
freedom. The model is shown to reproduce the experimentally observed global
trend toward less chaotic motion in heavier nuclei. The relation between
current approach and the earlier studies with bosonic models is discussed.Comment: 11 Page REVTeX file, 2 postscript figures, uuencode
Electric Control of Spin Helicity in a Magnetic Ferroelectric
Magnetic ferroelectrics or multiferroics, which are currently extensively
explored, may provide a good arena to realize a novel magnetoelectric function.
Here we demonstrate the genuine electric control of the spiral magnetic
structure in one of such magnetic ferroelectrics, TbMnO3. A spin-polarized
neutron scattering experiment clearly shows that the spin helicity, clockwise
or counter-clockwise, is controlled by the direction of spontaneous
polarization and hence by the polarity of the small cooling electric field.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Lattice-form dependent orbital shape and charge disproportionation in charge- and orbital-ordered manganites
The orbital shapes and charge disproportionations at nominal Mn and
Mn sites for the charge- and orbital-ordered phases have been studied on
half-doped manganites Pr(SrCa)MnO and
EuCaMnO with double-layer and single-layer Mn-O networks,
respectively, by means of x-ray structural analyses, in comparison with
PrCaMnO with the pseudo cubic network. In a single-layer
EuCaMnO system, the ()/()-type orbital
shape is observed, while the ()/()-type orbital shape in a
pseudo cubic PrCaMnO system. In a double-layer
Pr(SrCa)MnO system, the orbital shape is found to
undergo a large change upon thermally induced rotation of orbital stripe.
Furthermore, clear charge disproportionation is observed for the pseudo cubic
and double-layer systems, while not in the single-layer system. These results
indicate that the orbital shape and charge disproportionation are sensitive to
the dimension of Mn-O network.Comment: 12 page, 5 figures, 11 table
