The Capacitive Magnetic Field Sensor
The results of a study of sensitive element magnetic field sensor are represented in this paper. The sensor is based on the change of the capacitance with an active dielectric (ferrofluid) due to the magnitude of magnetic field. To prepare the ferrofluid magnetic particles are used, which have a followingdispersion equal to 50 < [the empty set] <= 56, 45 < [the empty set] <= 50, 40 < [the empty set] <=45 and [the empty set] <= 40 micron of nanocrystalline alloy of brand 5BDSR. The dependence of the sensitivity of the capacitive element from the ferrofluid with different dispersion of magnetic particles is considered. The threshold of sensitivity and sensitivity of a measuring cell with ferrofluid by a magnetic field was determined. The experimental graphs of capacitance change of the magnitude of magnetic field are presented
Flux Penetration in Superconducting Strip with Edge-Indentation
The flux penetration near a semicircular indentation at the edge of a thin
superconducting strip placed in a transverse magnetic field is investigated.
The flux front distortion due to the indentation is calculated numerically by
solving the Maxwell equations with a highly nonlinear law. We find that
the excess penetration, , can be significantly ( 50%) larger than
the indentation radius , in contrast to a bulk supercondutor in the
critical state where . It is also shown that the flux creep tends
to smoothen the flux front, i.e. reduce . The results are in very good
agreement with magneto-optical studies of flux penetration into an
YBaCuO film having an edge defect.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figure
Numerical optimization of a cylindrical reflector-in-radome antenna system
Cataloged from PDF version of article.Accurate numerical optimization based on the rigorous
solution of the integral equation using the method of
analytical regularization is performed for the cylindrical reflector
antenna in a dielectric radome. It is shown that the multiple
scattering in this system is more significant for the optimum
radome design than any nonplane-wave effects or the curvature of
the radome. We claim that, although the common half-wavelength
design is a good approximation to avoid negative effects of the
radome (such as the loss of the antenna directivity), one can, by
carefully playing with the radome thickness, its radius, reflector
location, and the position of the feed, improve the reflector-inradome
antenna performance (e.g., increase the directivity) with
respect to the same reflector in free-space
Mechanism for flux guidance by micrometric antidot arrays in superconducting films
A study of magnetic flux penetration in a superconducting film patterned with
arrays of micron sized antidots (microholes) is reported. Magneto-optical
imaging (MOI) of a YBCO film shaped as a long strip with perpendicular antidot
arrays revealed both strong guidance of flux, and at the same time large
perturbations of the overall flux penetration and flow of current. These
results are compared with a numerical flux creep simulation of a thin
superconductor with the same antidot pattern. To perform calculations on such a
complex geometry, an efficient numerical scheme for handling the boundary
conditions of the antidots and the nonlocal electrodynamics was developed. The
simulations reproduce essentially all features of the MOI results. In addition,
the numerical results give insight into all other key quantities, e.g., the
electrical field, which becomes extremely large in the narrow channels
connecting the antidots.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figure

Practical thermodynamics of Yukawa systems at strong coupling
Simple practical approach to estimate thermodynamic properties of strongly
coupled Yukawa systems, in both fluid and solid phases, is presented. The
accuracy of the approach is tested by extensive comparison with direct computer
simulation results (for fluids and solids) and the recently proposed
shortest-graph method (for solids). Possible applications to other systems of
softly repulsive particles are briefly discussed.Comment: Published in J. Chem. Phy
Overexpression of MRPS18-2 in cancer cell lines results in appearance of multinucleated cells
Copyright: Copyright 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Human mitochondrial ribosomal protein MRPS18-2 (S18-2) is encoded by a cellular gene that is located on the human chromosome 6p21.3. We discovered that overexpression of the S18-2 protein led to immortalization and de-differentiation of primary rat embryonic fibroblasts. Cells showed anchorage-independent growth pattern. Moreover, pathways characteristic for rapidly proliferating cells were upregulated then. It is possible that the S18-2 overexpression induced disturbance in cell cycle regulation. We found that overexpression of S18-2 protein in human cancer cell lines led to an appearance of multinucleated cells in the selected clones.publishersversionPeer reviewe
