Room temperature soft ferromagnetism in the nanocrystalline form of YCo2 - a well-known bulk Pauli paramagnet

The Laves phase compound, YCo2, is a well-known exchange-enahnced Pauli paramagnet. We report here that, in the nanocrystalline form, this compound interestingly is an itinerant ferromagnet at room temperature with a low coercive-field. The magnitude of the saturation moment (about 1 Bohr-magneton per formula unit) is large enough to infer that the ferromagnetism is not a surface phenomenon in these nanocrystallites. Since these ferromagnetic nanocrystallines are easy to synthesize with a stable form in air, one can explore applications, particularly where hysteresis is a disadvantage

A Grey Wolf Intelligence based Recognition of Human-Action in Low Resolution Videos with Minimal Processing Time

The usage of video cameras for security purposes has grown in recent years. The time for recognition of human plays an important role in solving many real time problems. In this paper, the process for identifying human action is done by separating the background using local binary pattern (LBP) and features extracted using faster histogram of gradients (FHOG) and Eigen values based on power method. The features are combined and optimized using grey wolf optimization (GWO) and finally classified using support vector machine (SVM). The experimental results are compared with existing methods in identifying the human action. The time factor is evaluated and compared with different optimization techniques like particle swarm optimization (PSO), Firefly algorithm (FA) and grey wolf optimization. The entire process is performed on three well known datasets like VIRAT dataset, KTH dataset and Soccer dataset. The comparison results prove that the recognition is done in quick time i.e. 10.28sec with improved rate of accuracy 93.35% for soccer dataset using proposed method

Griffiths phase-like behaviour and spin-phonon coupling in double perovskite Tb2_{2}NiMnO6_{6}

The Griffiths phase-like features and the spin-phonon coupling effects observed in Tb$_2$NiMnO$_6$ are reported. The double perovskite compound crystallizes in monoclinic $P2_1/n$ space group and exhibits a magnetic phase transition at $T_c \sim$ 111 K as an abrupt change in magnetization. A negative deviation from ideal Curie-Weiss law exhibited by 1/$\chi(T)$ curves and less-than-unity susceptibility exponents from the power-law analysis of inverse susceptibility are reminiscent of Griffiths phase-like features. Arrott plots derived from magnetization isotherms support the inhomogeneous nature of magnetism in this material. The observed effects originate from antiferromagnetic interactions which arise from inherent disorder in the system. Raman scattering experiments display no magnetic-order-induced phonon renormalization below $T_c$ in Tb$_2$NiMnO$_6$ which is different from the results observed in other double perovskites and is correlated to the smaller size of the rare earth. The temperature evolution of full-width-at-half-maximum for the {\it stretching} mode at 645 cm$^{-1}$ presents an anomaly which coincides with the magnetic transition temperature and signals a close connection between magnetism and lattice in this material.Comment: 17 pages, 8 figures; accepted in J.

Magnetocaloric effect and nature of magnetic transition in low dimensional DyCu2

In this manuscript, we propose a method to prepare small flakes of DyCu2. On top of that we also report on the magnetocaloric effect and nature of magnetic transition of a strongly anisotropic DyCu2 in its low dimension. Magnetization measurements were carried out in the temperature range of 5-100 K and up to the maximum magnetic field strength of 50 kOe. Magnetic entropy change (Delta S-M) is estimated using the well-known Maxwell's equations and is found to be -4.31 J/kg-K. Indeed, the Delta S-M peak broadened marginally compared with its bulk DyCu2 and such a broadening can be attributed to significant increase in the total grain boundary volume. As these small flakes consists larger DSM values at temperatures higher than the Neel temperature (T-N), one can use them as a magnetic refrigerant material in a broad temperature range. We also plotted the M-2 vs. H/M (which are called as the Arrott plots) in order to find the nature of magnetic transition. Arrott plots infer that indeed there exists nonlinearity in M-2 vs. H/M behavior and such nonlinear behavior is ascribed to the random anisotropy or a random field that is present in the system

Pharma Image Information Extraction Using Image Processing

In order to obtain better recovery and avoid any side effects it is critical that the patient should take correct medicine for the illness they are suffering with. It is important that the medicine that is taken should produce the maximum benefit for the person. This is the very important aspect of medication but we are finding many cases wherein the erroneous information about the drug might create bad affects on the people and tend to extend many problems instead of reducing the ailment. The main reason for this, is lack of information about the drug to the patient and some being illiterate or mind belief on the drugs. So as to overcome this issue Pharma Image Information Extraction using Image Processing is a medication application which helps you to view the medicine based on the symptoms to which the medicine is to be used at anytime, anywhere through your phone. It helps you to get the information of the medicine by just sitting at your house and taking the picture of the medicine. This paper mainly focuses on extracting the text on the tablet strip and offer correct information about the tablet and vice versa which helps the illiterates not to get cheated with the dubious medicines mapping to the symptoms he/she is suffering with

Experimental studies of spontaneous emission from dopants in an absorbing dielectric

We report the first measurements, to our knowledge, of the modification of spontaneous emission rates of Eu3+ ions in the visible region owing to an absorbing medium. Precise levels of the absorption coefficient are introduced by codoping with different amounts of Nd3+. We use a binary glass system PbO-B2O3 as the host, the compositional variation of which leads to a change in the real part of the refractive index. Measured lifetimes are found to follow the real cavity model, and the data are analyzed by the model proposed by Scheel et al. [Phys. Rev. A 60, 4094 (1999)]. We give estimates of the parameter that is related to the radius of the cavity around Eu3+
