Paramagnetic Meissner effect in superconductors from self-consistent solutions of Ginzburg-Landau equations
The paramagnetic Meissner effect (PME) is observed in small superconducting
samples, and a number of controversial explanations of this effect are
proposed, but there is as yet no clear understanding of its nature. In the
present paper PME is considered on the base of the Ginzburg-Landau theory (GL).
The one-dimensional solutions are obtained in a model case of a long
superconducting cylinder for different cylinder radii R, the GL-parameters
\kappa and vorticities m. Acording to GL-theory, PME is caused by the presence
of vortices inside the sample. The superconducting current flows around the
vortex to screeen the vortex own field from the bulk of the sample. Another
current flows at the boundary to screen the external field H from entering the
sample. These screening currents flow in opposite directions and contribute
with opposite signs to the total magnetic moment (or magnetization) of the
sample. Depending on H, the total magnetization M may be either negative
(diamagnetism), or positive (paramagnetism). A very complicated saw-like
dependence M(H) (and other characteristics), which are obtained on the base of
self-consistent solutions of the GL-equations, are discussed.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures, RevTex, submitted to Phys. Rev.
Anomalies of Density, Stresses, and the Gravitational Field in the Interior of Mars
We determined the possible compensation depths for relief harmonics of
different degrees and orders. The relief is shown to be completely compensated
within the depth range of 0 to 1400 km. The lateral distributions of
compensation masses are determined at these depths and the maps are
constructed. The possible nonisostatic vertical stresses in the crust and
mantle of Mars are estimated to be 64 MPa in compression and 20 MPa in tension.
The relief anomalies of the Tharsis volcanic plateau and symmetric feature in
the eastern hemisphere could have arisen and been maintained dynamically due to
two plumes in the mantle substance that are enriched with fluids. The plumes
that originate at the core of Mars can arise and be maintained by the anomalies
of the inner gravitational field achieving +800 mGal in the region of plume
formation, - 1200 mGal above the lower mantle-core transition layer, and -1400
mGal at the crust.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figure
The 2013 February 17 sunquake in the context of the active region's magnetic field configuration
© 2017. The American Astronomical Society. All rights reserved. Sunquakes are created by the hydrodynamic response of the lower atmosphere to a sudden deposition of energy and momentum. In this study, we investigate a sunquake that occurred in NOAA active region 11675 on 2013 February 17. Observations of the corona, chromosphere, and photosphere are brought together for the first time with a nonlinear force-free model of the active region's magnetic field in order to probe the magnetic environment in which the sunquake was initiated. We find that the sunquake was associated with the destabilization of a flux rope and an associated M-class GOES flare. Active region 11675 was in its emergence phase at the time of the sunquake and photospheric motions caused by the emergence heavily modified the flux rope and its associated quasi-separatrix layers, eventually triggering the flux rope's instability. The flux rope was surrounded by an extended envelope of field lines rooted in a small area at the approximate position of the sunquake. We argue that the configuration of the envelope, by interacting with the expanding flux rope, created a “magnetic lens” that may have focussed energy on one particular location of the photosphere, creating the necessary conditions for the initiation of the sunquake

High Energy Neutrinos and Photons from Curvature Pions in Magnetars
We discuss the relevance of the curvature radiation of pions in strongly
magnetized pulsars or magnetars, and their implications for the production of
TeV energy neutrinos detectable by cubic kilometer scale detectors, as well as
high energy photons.Comment: 19 pages, 4 figures, to appear in JCA
Supergroup approach to the Hubbard model
Based on the revealed hidden supergroup structure, we develop a new approach
to the Hubbard model. We reveal a relation of even Hubbard operators to the
spinor representation of the generators of the rotation group of
four-dimensional spaces. We propose a procedure for constructing a matrix
representation of translation generators, yielding a curved space on which
dynamic superfields are defined. We construct a new deformed nonlinear
superalgebra for the regime of spinless Hubbard model fermions in the case of
large on-site repulsion and evaluate the effective functional for spinless
fermions.Comment: 17 pages, Theoretical and Mathematical Physics, V.166, n.2,

Electron-positron pair production in the Aharonov-Bohm potential
In the framework of QED we evaluate the cross section for electron-positron
pair production by a single photon in the presence of the external
Aharonov-Bohm potential in first order of perturbation theory. We analyse
energy, angular and polarization distributions at different energy regimes:
near the threshold and at high photon energies.Comment: LaTeX file, 13 page
The formation of Uranus and Neptune among Jupiter and Saturn
The outer giant planets, Uranus and Neptune, pose a challenge to theories of
planet formation. They exist in a region of the Solar System where long
dynamical timescales and a low primordial density of material would have
conspired to make the formation of such large bodies ( 15 and 17 times as
massive as the Earth, respectively) very difficult. Previously, we proposed a
model which addresses this problem: Instead of forming in the trans-Saturnian
region, Uranus and Neptune underwent most of their growth among proto-Jupiter
and -Saturn, were scattered outward when Jupiter acquired its massive gas
envelope, and subsequently evolved toward their present orbits. We present the
results of additional numerical simulations, which further demonstrate that the
model readily produces analogues to our Solar System for a wide range of
initial conditions. We also find that this mechanism may partly account for the
high orbital inclinations observed in the Kuiper belt.Comment: Submitted to AJ; 38 pages, 16 figure
Vortex phases in mesoscopic cylinders with suppressed surface superconductivity
Vortex structures in mesoscopic cylinder placed in external magnetic field
are studied under the general de Gennes boundary condition for the order
parameter corresponding to the suppression of surface superconductivity. The
Ginzburg-Landau equations are solved based on trial functions for the order
parameter for vortex-free, single-vortex, multivortex, and giant vortex phases.
The equilibrium vortex diagrams in the plane of external field and cylinder
radius and magnetization curves are calculated at different values of de Gennes
"extrapolation length" characterizing the boundary condition for the order
parameter. The comparison of the obtained variational results with some
available exact solutions shows good accuracy of our approach.Comment: RevTex, 11 pages, 10 figure
