Mott Phase in Polarized Two-component Atomic Fermi Lattice Gas:A Playground for S=1/2 Heisenberg Model in Magnetic Field
We investigate effects of pseudo-spin population imbalance on Mott phases in
1D trapped two-component atomic Fermi gases loaded on optical lattices based on
the repulsive Hubbard model in harmonic traps. By using the density matrix
renormalization group method, we numerically calculate density profiles of each
component and clarify the pseudo-spin magnetism. Consequently, we find that all
the features from weakly imbalance to fully polarized cases are well described
by S=1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain under magnetic field. These results
indicate that the Mott phases offer experimental stages for studying various
interacting spin systems
Longitudinal magnetic excitation in KCuCl3 studied by Raman scattering under hydrostatic pressures
We measure Raman scattering in an interacting spin-dimer system KCuCl3 under
hydrostatic pressures up to 5 GPa mediated by He gas. In the pressure-induced
quantum phase, we observe a one-magnon Raman peak, which originates from the
longitudinal magnetic excitationand is observable through the second-order
exchange interaction Raman process. We report the pressure dependence of the
frequency, halfwidth and Raman intensity of this mode.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, inpress in JPCS as a proceeding of LT2
Paramagnetic and Glass States of a YBCO Film Containing Nanorods at Low Magnetic Fields
The magnetic properties of YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) multilayered film containing BaHfO3 (BHO) nanorods at zero and small fields have been investigated. The dc magnetization and the ac susceptibility were measured with a SQUID magnetometer. The paramagnetic magnetization is shown after the field-cool-warming below the transition temperature Tc = 87 K. The nonlinear susceptibility had a large peak around Tc, which reflects a glass-transition. An aging effect occured in the relaxation of zero-field-cooled magnetization below the Tc. Paramagnetic behavior and magnetic-glass properties were observed in the YBCO multilayered film containing BHO nanorods. The results suggest that the YBCO multilayered film is a novel magnetic-glass system at low fields.30th International Symposium on Superconductivity (ISS2017), 13–15 December 2017, Tokyo, Japa
Magnetic oxide semiconductors
Magnetic oxide semiconductors, oxide semiconductors doped with transition
metal elements, are one of the candidates for a high Curie temperature
ferromagnetic semiconductor that is important to realize semiconductor
spintronics at room temperature. We review in this paper recent progress of
researches on various magnetic oxide semiconductors. The magnetization,
magneto-optical effect, and magneto-transport such as anomalous Hall effect are
examined from viewpoint of feasibility to evaluate the ferromagnetism. The
ferromagnetism of Co-doped TiO2 and transition metal-doped ZnO is discussed.Comment: 26 pages, 5 tables, 6 figure
55Mn NMR and magnetization studies of La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 thin films
55Mn nuclear magnetic resonance and magnetization studies of the series of
La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 thin films have been performed at low temperature. Two
distinct lines were observed, at 322 MHz and 380 MHz, corresponding to two
different phases, the former located at the interface, with localized charges,
and the latter corresponding to the film bulk, with itinerant carriers (as it
was also found in Ca manganite films). The spin-echo amplitude was measured as
a function of a dc magnetic field applied either in the film plane or
perpendicular to it. The field dependence of both the main NMR signal intensity
and frequency shift is quite consistent with that calculated in a simple single
domain model. The best fit to the model shows that magnetization rotation
processes play a dominant role when the applied field exceeds the effective
anisotropy field. Distinctly different magnetic anisotropies are deduced from
the interface NMR signal.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figure
Numerical-Diagonalization Study of Spin Gap Issue of the Kagome Lattice Heisenberg Antiferromagnet
We study the system size dependence of the singlet-triplet excitation gap in
the kagome-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet by numerical
diagonalization. We successfully obtain a new result of a cluster of 42 sites.
The two sequences of gaps of systems with even-number sites and that with
odd-number sites are separately analyzed. Careful examination clarifies that
there is no contradiction when we consider the system to be gapless.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, 1 table, received by J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. on 20 Jan

The Magnetic Phase Diagram and the Pressure and Field Dependence of the Fermi Surface in UGe
The ac susceptibility and de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) effect in UGe are
measured at pressures {\it P} up to 17.7 kbar for the magnetic field {\it B}
parallel to the {\it a} axis, which is the easy axis of magnetization. Two
anomalies are observed at {\it B}({\it P}) and {\it B}({\it P}) ({\it
B} {\it B} at any {\it P}), and the {\it P}-{\it B} phase diagram
is presented. The Fermi surface and quasiparticle mass are found to vary
smoothly with pressure up to 17.7 kbar unless the phase boundary {\it
B}({\it P}) is crossed. The observed dHvA frequencies may be grouped into
three according to their pressure dependences, which are largely positive,
nearly constant or negative. It is suggested that the quasiparticle mass
moderately increases as the boundary {\it B}({\it P}) is approached. DHvA
effect measurements are also performed across the boundary at 16.8 kbar.Comment: to be published in Phys. Rev.
Nanoscale grains, high irreversibility field, and large critical current density as a function of high energy ball milling time in C-doped magnesium diboride
Magnesium diboride (MgB2) powder was mechanically alloyed by high energy ball
milling with C to a composition of Mg(B0.95C0.05)2 and then sintered at 1000 C
in a hot isostatic press. Milling times varied from 1 minute to 3000 minutes.
Full C incorporation required only 30-60 min of milling. Grain size of sintered
samples decreased with increased milling time to less than 30 nm for 20-50 hrs
of milling. Milling had a weak detrimental effect on connectivity. Strong
irreversibility field (H*) increase (from 13.3 T to 17.2 T at 4.2 K) due to
increased milling time was observed and correlated linearly with inverse grain
size (1/d). As a result, high field Jc benefited greatly from lengthy powder
milling. Jc(8 T, 4.2 K) peaked at > 80,000 A/cm2 with 1200 min of milling
compared with only ~ 26,000 A/cm2 for 60 min of milling. This non-compositional
performance increase is attributed to grain refinement of the unsintered powder
by milling, and to the probable suppression of grain growth by milling-induced
MgO nano-dispersions.Comment: 12 pages, 11 figure
Development and operational experience of magnetic horn system for T2K experiment
A magnetic horn system to be operated at a pulsed current of 320 kA and to
survive high-power proton beam operation at 750 kW was developed for the T2K
experiment. The first set of T2K magnetic horns was operated for over 12
million pulses during the four years of operation from 2010 to 2013, under a
maximum beam power of 230 kW, and protons were exposed to
the production target. No significant damage was observed throughout this
period. This successful operation of the T2K magnetic horns led to the
discovery of the oscillation phenomenon in 2013 by
the T2K experiment. In this paper, details of the design, construction, and
operation experience of the T2K magnetic horns are described.Comment: 22 pages, 40 figures, also submitted to Nuclear Instrument and
