Low temperature microwave emission from molecular clusters
We investigate the experimental detection of the electromagnetic radiation
generated in the fast magnetization reversal in Mn12-acetate at low
temperatures. In our experiments we used large single crystals and assemblies
of several small single crystals of Mn12-acetate placed inside a cylindrical
stainless steel waveguide in which an InSb hot electron device was also placed
to detect the radiation. All this was set inside a SQUID magnetometer that
allowed to change the magnetic field and measure the magnetic moment and the
temperature of the sample as the InSb detected simultaneously the radiation
emitted from the molecular magnets. Our data show a sequential process in which
the fast inversion of the magnetic moment first occurs, then the radiation is
detected by the InSb device, and finally the temperature of the sample
increases during 15 ms to subsequently recover its original value in several
hundreds of milliseconds.Comment: changed conten
ON SOME TYPES OF INVERSE PROBLEMS FOR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
The inverse problems for dierential equations are investigated, the solutionsof which do not use information about the exact characteristics of the physical process. Such inverse problems have not yet become widespread, but they are of great practical importance. Some approaches to solving inverse problems of this type are suggested
Strong spin-orbit induced Gilbert damping and g-shift in iron-platinum nanoparticles
The shape of ferromagnetic resonance spectra of highly dispersed, chemically
disordered Fe_{0.2}Pt_{0.8} nanospheres is perfectly described by the solution
of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation excluding effects by crystalline
anisotropy and superparamagnetic fluctuations. Upon decreasing temperature, the
LLG damping and a negative g-shift, g(T)-g_0, increase proportional
to the particle magnetic moments determined from the Langevin analysis of the
magnetization isotherms. These novel features are explained by the scattering
of the magnon from an electron-hole (e/h) pair mediated by the
spin-orbit coupling, while the sd-exchange can be ruled out. The large
saturation values, and , indicate the
dominance of an overdamped 1 meV e/h-pair which seems to originate from the
discrete levels of the itinerant electrons in the d_p=3 nm nanoparticles.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev. B

Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Simulation of Diffusive Processes in Slow Changing Domains
Nowadays, diffusion and heat conduction processes in slow changing domains attract great attention. Slow-phase transitions and growth of biological structures can be considered as examples of such processes. The main difficulty in numerical solutions of correspondent problems is connected with the presence of two time scales. The first one is time scale describing diffusion or heat conduction. The second time scale is connected with the mentioned slow domain evolution. If there is sufficient difference in order of the listed time scale, strong computational difficulties in application of time-stepping algorithms are observed. To overcome the mentioned difficulties, it is proposed to apply a small parameter method for obtaining a new mathematical model, in which the starting parabolic initial-boundary-value problem is replaced by a sequence of elliptic boundary-value problems. Application of the boundary element method for numerical solution of the obtained sequence of problems gives an opportunity to solve the whole considered problem in slow time with high accuracy specific to the mentioned algorithm. Besides that, questions about convergence of the obtained asymptotic expansion and correspondence between initial and obtained formulations of the problem are considered separately. The proposed numerical approach is illustrated by several examples of numerical calculations for relevant problems
