    Heat-operated cryogenic electrical generator

    Generator operation is based upon unusual hydrodynamic properties exhibited by liquid helium below superfluid critical point. Below that temperature, liquid behaves as though it is mixture of two interpenetrating fluids. When transition takes place between superfluid and normal states, conservation of momentum is always balanced by normal fluid

    Particle-Hole Symmetry Breaking and the 5/2 Fractional Quantum Hall Effect

    Get PDF
    We report on the study of the fractional quantum Hall effect at the filling factor 5/2 using exact diagonalization method with torus geometry. The particle-hole symmetry breaking effect is considered using an additional three-body interaction. Both Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian states can be the ground state depending on the sign of the three-body interaction. The results of the low-energy spectrum, the wave function overlap, and the particle-hole parity evolution, have shown the clear evidence of a direct sharp transition (possibly first-order) from the Pfaffian to the anti-Pfaffian state at the Coulomb point. A quantum phase diagram is established, where one finds further transitions from the Pfaffian or anti-Pfaffian state to the nearby compressible phases induced by a change of the pseudopotential.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

    Resonant chambers for suspending materials in air

    Get PDF
    Acoustical pressure of standing wave is used to suspend materials inside resonant chambers. Material is driven to standing-wave antinodes where pressure is lowest. Pressure at nodes is greatest, which prevents suspended material from collecting there. Material can be moved inside chambers by changing wave patterns

    Clustering induced suppression of ferromagnetism in diluted magnets

    Full text link
    Ferromagnetism in diluted magnets in the compensated regime p << x is shown to be suppressed by the formation of impurity spin clusters. The majority bulk spin couplings are shown to be considerably weakened by the preferential accumulation of holes in spin clusters, resulting in low-energy magnon softening and enhanced low-temperature decay of magnetic order. A locally self-consistent magnon renormalization analysis of spin dynamics shows that although strong intra-cluster correlations tend to prolong global order, T_c is still reduced compared to the ordered case.Comment: published version, 5 pages, 4 figure
