The Magnetic Field

In this paper, the specific heat, entropy and magnetic susceptibility of an asymmetric GaAs quantum dot (QD) are studied under the influence of temperature and a tilted external magnetic field. We first calculate the analytical wave functions and energy levels using a transformation to simplify the Hamiltonian of the system. Then, we obtain the analytical expressions for specific heat, entropy and magnetic susceptibility as the function of temperature, magnetic field and its direction for various anisotropy of the system. According to the results obtained from the present work, we find that (i) the specific heat and entropy are decreased when the magnetic field increases. (ii) When anisotropy is increased, the specific heat and entropy decrease. (iii) At large magnetic fields, the anisotropy has not important effect on specific heat and entropy. In briefly, the magnetic field, magnetic field direction and anisotropy play important roles in the specific heat, entropy and magnetic susceptibility of an asymmetric QD.

Bound Magnetopolaron

The properties of a strong-coupled bound magnetopolaron in an asymmetric quantum dot (QD) have been investigated by using the Tokuda modified linear combination operator and the unitary transformation methods on the basis of the Huybrechts' strong-coupled model. We derive the expressions of the ground-state energy as function of the transverse and longitudinal confinement lengths, the magnetic field. Numerical calculation is performed and the results show that the ground-state energy of the bound magnetopolaron splits into two branches, taking into account the spin influences. And the ground-state energy decreases with increasing the transverse and longitudinal confinement lengths and increases with the rising of the magnetic field.

The Magnetic Field

Influence of the magnetic field on the properties of the polaron in an asymmetric quantum dot is studied by using the Pekar variation method. The expression of the magnetopolaron ground-state energy is obtained by theoretical derivation. The relationship between the ground-state energy of the magnetopolaron with the transverse confinement strength, the longitudinal confinement strength and the magnetic field cyclotron resonance frequency are further discussed by us. Due to the crystal structure inversion asymmetry and the time inversion asymmetry, the polaron energy causes Rashba spin–orbit splitting and Zeeman splitting. Under the strong and weak magnetic fields, we discuss the dominant position of Rashba effect and Zeeman effect, respectively. Due to the presence of phonons, the polaron is more stable than the bare electron state, and the energy splitting is more stable.

A 3 T superconducting magnet has been designed and constructed for magnetic Compton-profile (MCP) measurements with the new capabilities that the magnetic field direction can be altered quickly (within 5 s) and liquid-He refill is not required for more than one week. For the latter capability, two refrigerators have been directly attached to the cryostat to maintain the low temperature of the radiation shields and for the recondensation of liquid He. The system has been satisfactorily operated for over one week.

The light absorption of a ZnS quantum dot with a parabolic confinement potential is studied in this paper in the presence of magnetic field perpendicular to dot plane. The Schrodinger equation of a single electron is solved numerically, and energy spectra and wave functions are obtained. Then, the optical absorption coefficients in transition from ground state to different excited states are calculated. The effects the magnetic field and quantum dot width on the optical absorption are investigated. It is found that the optical absorption coefficient has a blue shift by increasing of magnetic field or confinement strength of quantum dot.

AbstractWe present the results from mid-infrared spectro-polarimetric observations of a number of bi-polar outflow sources. The specto-polarimetric data provides information on the polarization mechanism and the magnetic field direction. The field direction in the disks of the observed sources is most often normal to the ambient field direction and lies in the plane of the disk, indicating a toroidal rather than poloidal field configuration.

We discuss how a magnetic field can affect the equation of state of a many-particle neutron system. We show that, due to the anisotropy in the pressures, the pressure transverse to the magnetic field direction increases with the magnetic field, while the one along the field direction decreases. We also show that in this medium there exists a significant negative field-dependent contribution associated with the vacuum pressure. This negative pressure demands a neutron density sufficiently high (corresponding to a baryonic chemical potential of μ = 2.25 GeV) to produce the necessary positive matter pressure that can compensate for the gravitational pull. The decrease of the parallel pressure with the field limits the maximum magnetic field to a value of the order of 10 18 G, where the pressure decays to zero. We show that the combination of all these effects produces an insignificant variation of the system equation of state. We also found that this neutron system exhibits paramagnetic behavior expressed by the Curie’s law in the high-temperature regime. The reported results may be of interest for the astrophysics of compact objects such as magnetars, which are endowed with substantial magnetic fields.

Abstract. Magnetic clouds (MCs) are large-scale magnetic flux ropes ejected from the Sun into the interplanetary space. They play a central role in solar–terrestrial relations as they can efficiently drive magnetic activity in the near-Earth environment. Their impact on the Earth's magnetosphere is often attributed to the presence of southward magnetic fields inside the MC, as observed in the upstream solar wind. However, when they arrive in the vicinity of the Earth, MCs first encounter the bow shock, which is expected to modify their properties, including their magnetic field strength and direction. If these changes are significant, they can in turn affect the interaction of the MC with the magnetosphere. In this paper, we use data from the Cluster and Geotail spacecraft inside the magnetosheath and from the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) upstream of the Earth's environment to investigate the impact of the bow shock's crossing on the magnetic structure of MCs. Through four example MCs, we show that the evolution of the MC's structure from the solar wind to the magnetosheath differs largely from one event to another. The smooth rotation of the MC can either be preserved inside the magnetosheath, be modified, i.e. the magnetic field still rotates slowly but at different angles, or even disappear. The alteration of the magnetic field orientation across the bow shock can vary with time during the MC's passage and with the location inside the magnetosheath. We examine the conditions encountered at the bow shock from direct observations, when Cluster or Geotail cross it, or indirectly by applying a magnetosheath model. We obtain a good agreement between the observed and modelled magnetic field direction and shock configuration, which varies from quasi-perpendicular to quasi-parallel in our study. We find that the variations in the angle between the magnetic fields in the solar wind and in the magnetosheath are anti-correlated with the variations in the shock obliquity. When the shock is in a quasi-parallel regime, the magnetic field direction varies significantly from the solar wind to the magnetosheath. In such cases, the magnetic field reaching the magnetopause cannot be approximated by the upstream magnetic field. Therefore, it is important to take into account the conditions at the bow shock when estimating the impact of an MC with the Earth's environment because these conditions are crucial in determining the magnetosheath magnetic field, which then interacts with the magnetosphere.
