Constant External Magnetic Field

We illustrate how, contrary to common belief, transient Fluctuation Relations (FRs) for systems in constant external magnetic field hold without the inversion of the field. Building on previous work providing generalized time-reversal symmetries for systems in parallel external magnetic and electric fields, we observe that the standard proof of these important nonequilibrium properties can be fully reinstated in the presence of net dissipation. This generalizes recent results for the FRs in orthogonal fields—an interesting but less commonly investigated geometry—and enables direct comparison with existing literature. We also present for the first time a numerical demonstration of the validity of the transient FRs with nonzero magnetic field via nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of a realistic model of liquid NaCl.

The ferrofluid-in-water emulsion has been produced and studied. The microstructure formation in a flat layer of such emulsion under the action of in-plane rotating magnetic field has been observed. Several microstructure types have been found such as chain-like aggregates, disc-like clusters, branching and space-occupying structures. The time evolution of the formation process has been analysed. The revealed microstructures have been computationally investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The microstructure dynamics in ferrofluid emulsions manifests itself in macroscopic mechanical effects. We analysed the appearance of macroscopic torque on a ferrofluid emulsion sample in a rotating magnetic field. The value of the torque has been measured as a function of magnetic field strength and frequency.
