Superflow-Stabilized Nonlinear NMR in Rotating 3He-B
Nonlinear spin precession has been observed in 3He-B in large counterflow of
the normal and superfluid fractions. The new precessing state is stabilized at
high rf excitation level and displays frequency-locked precession over a large
range of frequency shifts, with the magnetization at its equilibrium value.
Comparison to analytical and numerical calculation indicates that in this state
the orbital angular momentum L of the Cooper pairs is oriented transverse to
the external magnetic field in a ``non-Leggett'' configuration with broken
spin-orbit coupling. The resonance shift depends on the tipping angle theta of
the magnetization as omega - omega_L = (Omega_B^2 / 2 omega_L)(cos(theta) -
1/5). The phase diagram of the precessing modes with arbitrary orientation of L
is constructed.Comment: Revtex file, 5 pages, 4 figures, version submitted to Phys. Rev. Let
Anapole moment of an exotic nucleus
We demonstrate that there is no appreciable enhancement of the anapole moment
of Be. The effect of small energy intervals is compensated for by a
small overlap of the halo neutron wave function with core.Comment: 5 pages, LaTe
Schiff moment of the Mercury nucleus and the proton dipole moment
We calculated the contribution of internal nucleon electric dipole moments to
the Schiff moment of Hg. The contribution of the proton electric dipole
moment was obtained via core polarization effects that were treated in the
framework of random phase approximation with effective residual forces. We
derived a new upper bound cm of the proton
electric dipole moment.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, RevTex
Quantum conductivity corrections in two dimensional long-range disordered systems with strong spin-orbit splitting of electron spectrum
We study quantum corrections to conductivity in a 2D system with a smooth
random potential and strong spin-orbit splitting of the spectrum. We show that
the interference correction is positive and down to the very low temperature
can exceed the negative correction related to electron-electron interactions.
We discuss this result in the context of the problem of the metal-insulator
transition in Si-MOSFET structures.Comment: 8 pages, no figure
Random anisotropy disorder in superfluid 3He-A in aerogel
The anisotropic superfluid 3He-A in aerogel provides an interesting example
of a system with continuous symmetry in the presence of random anisotropy
disorder. Recent NMR experiments allow us to discuss two regimes of the
orientational disorder, which have different NMR properties. One of them, the
(s)-state, is identified as the pure Larkin-Imry-Ma state. The structure of
another state, the (f)-state, is not very clear: probably it is the
Larkin-Imry-Ma state contaminated by the network of the topological defects
pinned by aerogel.Comment: JETP Lett. style, 6 pages, no figures, discussion extended,
