Continuous transformation between ferro and antiferro circular structures in J1−J2−J3J_1-J_2-J_3 frustrated Heisenberg model

Frustrated magnetic compounds, in particular low-dimensional, are topical research due to persistent uncover of novel nontrivial quantum states and potential applications. The problem of this field is that many important results are scattered over the localized parameter ranges, while areas in between still contain hidden interesting effects. We consider $J_1-J_2-J_3$ Heisenberg model on the square lattice and use the spherically symmetric self-consistent approach for spin-spin Green's functions in "quasielastic" approximation. We have found a new local order in spin liquids: antiferromagnetic isotropical helices. On the structure factor we see circular concentric dispersionless structures, while on any radial direction the excitation spectrum has "roton" minima. That implies nontrivial magnetic excitations and consequences in magnetic susceptibility and thermodynamics. On the $J_1-J_2-J_3$ exchange parameters globe we discover a crossover between antiferromagnetic-like local order and ferromagnetic-like; we find stripe-like order in the middle. In fact, our "quasielastic" approach allows investigation of the whole $J_1-J_2-J_3$ globe.Comment: 9 pages, 12 figure

Thermodynamics of symmetric spin--orbital model: One- and two-dimensional cases

The specific heat and susceptibilities for the two- and one-dimensional spin--orbital models are calculated in the framework of a spherically symmetric self-consistent approach at different temperatures and relations between the parameters of the system. It is shown that even in the absence of the long-range spin and orbital order, the system exhibits the features in the behavior of thermodynamic characteristics, which are typical of those manifesting themselves at phase transitions. Such features are attributed to the quantum entanglement of the coupled spin and orbital degrees of freedom.Comment: 7 pages, 9 figures, submitted to JETP Letter

Aerosol Inhalation Delivery of Ceftriaxone in Mice: Generation Procedure, Pharmacokinetics, and Therapeutic Outcome

Aerosol inhalation delivery of ceftriaxone in mice was investigated. An ultrasonic nebulizer within the ranges of mean particle diameter 0.5–1.5 μm and mass concentration 0.01–0.6 μg/cm3 was used in inhalation experiments. Pharmacokinetic measurements were carried out using a nose-only chamber. Ceftriaxone concentration in blood serum and its mass in the lungs of mice were measured as a function of time using high-performance liquid chromatography. The body-delivered dose was within the range 3–5 mg/kg. The antibacterial effect of aerosolized ceftriaxone was investigated for mice infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae 82 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25 953. The survival rate for infected mice after the treatment with ceftriaxone aerosol revealed the high antibacterial efficiency of this kind of treatment
