Unconventional superconducting phases in a correlated two-dimensional Fermi gas of nonstandard quasiparticles: a simple model
We discuss a detailed phase diagram and other microscopic characteristics on
the applied magnetic field - temperature (H_a-T) plane for a simple model of
correlated fluid represented by a two-dimensional (2D) gas of heavy
quasiparticles with masses dependent on the spin direction and the effective
field generated by the electron correlations. The consecutive transitions
between the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) and the
Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) phases are either continuous or
discontinuous, depending on the values of H_a and T. In the latter case, weak
metamagnetic transitions occur at the BCS-FFLO boundary. We single out two
different FFLO phases, as well as a reentrant behaviour of one of them at high
fields. The results are compared with those for ordinary Landau quasiparticles
in order to demonstrate the robustness of the FFLO states against the BCS state
for the case with spin-dependent masses (SDM). We believe that the mechanism of
FFLO stabilization by SDM is generic: other high-field low-temperature (HFLT)
superconducting phases benefit from SDM as well.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
A New Species of the Genus Macrargus (Araneae, Linyphiidae, Micronetinae) from the North-East of Ukraine and Redescription of Two Related Species
Macrargus sumyensis Gnelitsa et Koponen, sp. n. is described from the North-East of Ukraine. Two closely related species of the genus Macrargus Dahl, 1886, Macrargus boreus Holm, 1968 and M. multesimus (O.-P.

Effect of enzyme-aided juice production on the extractability and profile of berry anthocyanins
These experiments showed that the anthocyanin yield increased significantly in certain enzyme-aided treatments as compared to control
Ferromagnetic resonance in -Co magnetic composites
We investigate the electromagnetic properties of assemblies of nanoscale
-cobalt crystals with size range between 5 nm to 35 nm, embedded in a
polystyrene (PS) matrix, at microwave (1-12 GHz) frequencies. We investigate
the samples by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging, demonstrating
that the particles aggregate and form chains and clusters. By using a broadband
coaxial-line method, we extract the magnetic permeability in the frequency
range from 1 to 12 GHz, and we study the shift of the ferromagnetic resonance
with respect to an externally applied magnetic field. We find that the
zero-magnetic field ferromagnetic resonant peak shifts towards higher
frequencies at finite magnetic fields, and the magnitude of complex
permeability is reduced. At fields larger than 2.5 kOe the resonant frequency
changes linearly with the applied magnetic field, demonstrating the transition
to a state in which the nanoparticles become dynamically decoupled. In this
regime, the particles inside clusters can be treated as non-interacting, and
the peak position can be predicted from Kittel's ferromagnetic resonance theory
for non-interacting uniaxial spherical particles combined with the
Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation. In contrast, at low magnetic fields
this magnetic order breaks down and the resonant frequency in zero magnetic
field reaches a saturation value reflecting the interparticle interactions as
resulting from aggregation. Our results show that the electromagnetic
properties of these composite materials can be tuned by external magnetic
fields and by changes in the aggregation structure.Comment: 14 pages, 13 figure
Magnetic phases of one-dimensional lattices with 2 to 4 fermions per site
We study the spectral and magnetic properties of one-dimensional lattices
filled with 2 to 4 fermions (with spin 1/2) per lattice site. We use a
generalized Hubbard model that takes account all interactions on a lattice
site, and solve the many-particle problem by exact diagonalization. We find an
intriguing magnetic phase diagram which includes ferromagnetism, spin-one
Heisenberg antiferromagnetism, and orbital antiferromagnetism.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure
