A Pulsational Model for the Orthogonal Polarization Modes in Radio Pulsars
In an earlier paper, we introduced a model for pulsars in which non-radial
oscillations of high spherical degree (\el) aligned to the magnetic axis of a
spinning neutron star were able to reproduce subpulses like those observed in
single-pulse measurements of pulsar intensity. The model did not address
polarization, which is an integral part of pulsar emission. Observations show
that many pulsars emit radio waves that appear to be the superposition of two
linearly polarized emission modes with orthogonal polarization angles. In this
paper, we extend our model to incorporate linear polarization. As before, we
propose that pulsational displacements of stellar material modulate the pulsar
emission, but now we apply this modulation to a linearly-polarized mode of
emission, as might be produced by curvature radiation. We further introduce a
second polarization mode, orthogonal to the first, that is modulated by
pulsational velocities. We combine these modes in superposition to model the
observed Stokes parameters in radio pulsars.Comment: 19 pages, 4 figures accepted Ap
High Pressure studies of the magnetic phase transition in MnSi: revisited
New measurements of AC magnetic susceptibility and DC resistivity of a high
quality single crystal MnSi were carried out at high pressure making use of
helium as a pressure medium. The form of the AC magnetic susceptibility curves
at the magnetic phase transition suddenly changes upon helium solidification.
This implies strong sensitivity of magnetic properties of MnSi to non
hydrostatic stresses and suggests that the early claims on the existence of a
tricritical point at the phase transition line are probably a result of
misinterpretation of the experimental data. At the same time resistivity
behavior at the phase transition does not show such a significant influence of
helium solidification. The sharp peak at the temperature derivative of
resistivity, signifying the first order nature of the phase transition in MnSi
successfully survived helium crystallization and continued the same way to the
highest pressure.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figure
A healthy lifestyle of university students
There is a correlation between success in learning and attitude towards their health. This arises from the fact that the attitude towards health, in the full sense of the word, is the ratio of the individual to himself and lies at the heart of its activityСуществует взаимосвязь между успешностью в обучении и отношением к своему здоровью. Это возникает вследствие того, что отношение к здоровью, в полном смысле этого слова, является отношением личности к себе и лежит в основе ее жизнедеятельност
Conditions for the formation of a non-autonomous phase at the structural deformation of complex vanadium oxides
Received: 02.03.2018. Accepted: 10.04.2018. Published: 10.05.2018.A new previously unknown effect of a reversible transition from a singlephase system to a heterophase system containing a non-autonomous phase was observed during thermal and chemical deformations of the Zn2–2xCd2xV2O7 structure.The role of local symmetry in the formation of the non-autonomous phase is shown on the basis of X-ray diffraction studies in situ and a comparative crystal-chemical analysis of the structural deformations of isoform monoclinic solid solutions of zinc and copper pyrovanadates with zero volumetric thermal expansion.The work was supported by UB RAS (project 18-10-3-32)
