Dual Behavior of Antiferromagnetic Uncompensated Spins in NiFe/IrMn Exchange Biased Bilayers
We present a comprehensive study of the exchange bias effect in a model
system. Through numerical analysis of the exchange bias and coercive fields as
a function of the antiferromagnetic layer thickness we deduce the absolute
value of the averaged anisotropy constant of the antiferromagnet. We show that
the anisotropy of IrMn exhibits a finite size effect as a function of
thickness. The interfacial spin disorder involved in the data analysis is
further supported by the observation of the dual behavior of the interfacial
uncompensated spins. Utilizing soft x-ray resonant magnetic reflectometry we
have observed that the antiferromagnetic uncompensated spins are dominantly
frozen with nearly no rotating spins due to the chemical intermixing, which
correlates to the inferred mechanism for the exchange bias.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

Data on the reaction with ,
taken with unpolarized or polarized beams in combination with an unpolarized or
polarized proton-target, were analyzed within the Bonn-Gatchina (BnGa) partial
wave analysis. Differential cross sections, several spin density matrix
elements, the beam asymmetry , the normalized helicity difference ,
and the correlation between linear photon and longitudinal target
polarization were included in a large data base on pion and photo-induced
reactions. The data on photoproduction are used to determine twelve
branching ratios; most of these are determined for the first
time.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, 2 table
The formation of Uranus and Neptune among Jupiter and Saturn
The outer giant planets, Uranus and Neptune, pose a challenge to theories of
planet formation. They exist in a region of the Solar System where long
dynamical timescales and a low primordial density of material would have
conspired to make the formation of such large bodies ( 15 and 17 times as
massive as the Earth, respectively) very difficult. Previously, we proposed a
model which addresses this problem: Instead of forming in the trans-Saturnian
region, Uranus and Neptune underwent most of their growth among proto-Jupiter
and -Saturn, were scattered outward when Jupiter acquired its massive gas
envelope, and subsequently evolved toward their present orbits. We present the
results of additional numerical simulations, which further demonstrate that the
model readily produces analogues to our Solar System for a wide range of
initial conditions. We also find that this mechanism may partly account for the
high orbital inclinations observed in the Kuiper belt.Comment: Submitted to AJ; 38 pages, 16 figure
