    Equilibrium magnetisation structures in ferromagnetic nanorings

    Full text link
    The ground state of the ring-shape magnetic nanoparticle is studied. Depending on the geometrical and magnetic parameters of the nanoring, there exist different magnetisation configurations (magnetic phases): two phases with homogeneous magnetisation (easy-axis and easy-plane phases) and two inhomogeneous (planar vortex phase and out-of-plane one). The existence of a new intermediate out-of-plane vortex phase, where the inner magnetisation is not strongly parallel to the easy axis, is predicted. Possible transitions between different phases are analysed using the combination of analytical calculations and micromagnetic simulations.Comment: LaTeX, 19 pages, 11 figure

    Bell's inequality with Dirac particles

    Full text link
    We study Bell's inequality using the Bell states constructed from four component Dirac spinors. Spin operator is related to the Pauli-Lubanski pseudo vector which is relativistic invariant operator. By using Lorentz transformation, in both Bell states and spin operator, we obtain an observer independent Bell's inequality, so that it is maximally violated as long as it is violated maximally in the rest frame.Comment: 7 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:quant-ph/0308156 by other author

    Direct Observation of Non-Monotonic dx2-y2-Wave Superconducting Gap in Electron-Doped High-Tc Superconductor Pr0.89LaCe0.11CuO4

    Full text link
    We performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on electron-doped high-Tc superconductor Pr0.89LaCe0.11CuO4 to study the anisotropy of the superconducting gap. The observed momentum dependence is basically consistent with the dx2-y2-wave symmetry, but obviously deviates from the monotonic dx2-y2 gap function. The maximum gap is observed not at the zone boundary, but at the hot spot where the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation strongly couples to the electrons on the Fermi surface. The present experimental results unambiguously indicate the spin-mediated pairing mechanism in electron-doped high-Tc superconductors.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

    Arithmetic Orr invariants of absolute Galois groups

    Get PDF
    Based on the analogies between mapping class groups and absolute Galois groups, we introduce an arithmetic pro-ℓ\ell analogue of Orr invariants for a Galois element associated with Galois action on \'etale fundamental groups of punctured projective lines. At the same time, we also introduce pro-ℓ\ell Orr space as an arithmetic analogue of Orr space whose third homotopy group is a target group of Orr invariant. We then determine its rank as Zℓ\mathbb{Z}_{\ell}-module following Igusa-Orr's computation. Moreover, we investigate its relation with Ellenberg's obstruction to π1\pi_1-sections associated with lower central series filtration in the context of Grothendieck's section conjecture

    Spin decoherence by spacetime curvature

    Full text link
    A decoherence mechanism caused by spacetime curvature is discussed. The spin state of a particle is shown to decohere if only the particle moves in a curved spacetime. In particular, when a particle is near the event horizon of a black hole, an extremely rapid spin decoherence occurs for an observer who is static in a Killing time, however slow the particle's motion is.Comment: 13 pages, 2 figure

    Five-dimensional SYM from undeformed ABJM

    Full text link
    We expand undeformed ABJM theory around the vacuum solution that was found in arxiv:0909.3101. This solution can be interpreted as a circle-bundle over a two-dimensional plane with a singularity at the origin. By imposing periodic boundary conditions locally far away from the singularity, we obtain a local fuzzy two-torus over which we have a circle fibration. By performing fluctuation analysis we obtain five-dimensional SYM with the precise value on the coupling constant that we would obtain by compactifying multiple M5 branes on the vacuum three-manifold. In the resulting SYM theory we also find a coupling to a background two-form.Comment: 23 page
