Evidence of the side jump mechanism in the anomalous Hall effect in paramagnets

Persistent confusion has existed between the intrinsic (Berry curvature) and the side jump mechanisms of anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in ferromagnets. We provide unambiguous identification of the side jump mechanism, in addition to the skew scattering contribution in epitaxial paramagnetic Ni$_{34}$Cu$_{66}$ thin films, in which the intrinsic contribution is by definition excluded. Furthermore, the temperature dependence of the AHE further reveals that the side jump mechanism is dominated by the elastic scattering

Proper Scaling of the Anomalous Hall Effect

Working with epitaxial films of Fe, we succeeded in independent control of different scattering processes in the anomalous Hall effect. The result appropriately accounted for the role of phonons, thereby clearly exposing the fundamental flaws of the standard plot of the anomalous Hall resistivity versus longitudinal resistivity. A new scaling has been thus established that allows an unambiguous identification of the intrinsic Berry curvature mechanism as well as the extrinsic skew scattering and side-jump mechanisms of the anomalous Hall effect.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure

The Effectiveness of a Hybrid Cybersecurity Summer Camp for Teachers

Cybersecurity teacher education plays a vital role in narrowing the gap in the need for cybersecurity professionals in the workforce. In this paper, the authors examined the effectiveness of a hybrid cybersecurity summer camp for secondary education in-service teachers. The pre- and post-camp quizzes showed significant statistical difference, t(17) = -8.42, p \u3c .001, with a large effect size of 2.24. Focus group interviews with the teacher participants further suggested that the hybrid modality is not only viable but also a preferred format welcomed by the teachers
