The Magnetic Field

We consider a quantum spinless nonrelativistic charged particle moving in the xy plane under the action of a time-dependent magnetic field, described by means of the linear vector potential A=B(t)−y(1+α),x(1−α)/2, with two fixed values of the gauge parameter α: α=0 (the circular gauge) and α=1 (the Landau gauge). While the magnetic field is the same in all the cases, the systems with different values of the gauge parameter are not equivalent for nonstationary magnetic fields due to different structures of induced electric fields, whose lines of force are circles for α=0 and straight lines for α=1. We derive general formulas for the time-dependent mean values of the energy and magnetic moment, as well as for their variances, for an arbitrary function B(t). They are expressed in terms of solutions to the classical equation of motion ε¨+ωα2(t)ε=0, with ω1=2ω0. Explicit results are found in the cases of the sudden jump of magnetic field, the parametric resonance, the adiabatic evolution, and for several specific functions B(t), when solutions can be expressed in terms of elementary or hypergeometric functions. These examples show that the evolution of the mentioned mean values can be rather different for the two gauges, if the evolution is not adiabatic. It appears that the adiabatic approximation fails when the magnetic field goes to zero. Moreover, the sudden jump approximation can fail in this case as well. The case of a slowly varying field changing its sign seems especially interesting. In all the cases, fluctuations of the magnetic moment are very strong, frequently exceeding the square of the mean value.

The Magnetic Field

We consider a quantum charged particle moving in the x y plane under the action of a time-dependent magnetic field described by means of the linear vector potential of the form A = B ( t ) − y ( 1 + β ) , x ( 1 − β ) / 2 . Such potentials with β ≠ 0 exist inside infinite solenoids with non-circular cross sections. The systems with different values of β are not equivalent for nonstationary magnetic fields or time-dependent parameters β ( t ) , due to different structures of induced electric fields. Using the approximation of the stepwise variations of parameters, we obtain explicit formulas describing the change of the mean energy and magnetic moment. The generation of squeezing with respect to the relative and guiding center coordinates is also studied. The change of magnetic moment can be twice bigger for the Landau gauge than for the circular gauge, and this change can happen without any change of the angular momentum. A strong amplification of the magnetic moment can happen even for rapidly decreasing magnetic fields.

In einem Magnetfeld ist das magnetische Bahnmoment μ* eines geladenen Teilchens annähernd eine Konstante der Bewegung, wenn das Magnetfeld nur schwach variiert. Für den Spezialfall eines homogenen, zeitabhängigen Magnetfeldes wird gezeigt, daß die relative Änderung in μ* zwischen zwei verschiedenen Zuständen, in denen das Magnetfeld konstant ist, mindestens exponentiell in h/a gegen Null geht. Hierin ist α ein Maß für die relative Feldänderungsgeschwindigkeit und mit h ist die Gyro-Frequenz bezeichnet.The magnetic moment μ of the motion of a charged particle in a magnetic field is an approximate constant of motion in moderately varying magnetic fields. For the special case of a homgeneous time-dependent magnetic field, it is shown that the relative change in μ between two different states of constant field decreases at least exponentially in h/α if α/h tends to zero, where a represents the relative rate of change of the magnetic field and h denotes the gyro-frequency.

In this paper we study the solutions of micromagnetism equation in thin domain both in the stationary and in the time-dependent case. We prove that the magnetic field induced by the magnetisation behaves like the projection of the magnetic moment on the normal to the domain, both for a flat and a non-flat domain.

The Magnetic Field

Following a short review of the drift theory of plasma radial compression, an exact solution for the motion of a charged particle in an axially symmetric time-dependent magnetic field is� obtained. The method gives forms for the cylindrical coordinates rand B of the charged particle that have a simple interpretation, the z-motion being of constant velocity. As examples, the exact results are discussed for a simple power law and an exponential time dependence of the magnetic field and, using the latter results, the drift theory of plasma radial compression is qualitatively verified.

The Magnetic Field

The magnetic field hz of a moving Pearl vortex in a superconducting thin-film in (x,y) plane is studied with the help of the time-dependent London equation. It is found that for a vortex at the origin moving in +x direction, hz(x,y) is suppressed in front of the vortex, x>0, and enhanced behind (x<0). The distribution asymmetry is proportional to the velocity and to the conductivity of normal quasiparticles. The vortex self-energy and the interaction of two moving vortices are evaluated.

Abstract. When studying magnetospheric convection, it is often necessary to map the steady-state electric field, measured at some point on a magnetic field line, to a magnetically conjugate point in the other hemisphere, or the equatorial plane, or at the position of a satellite. Such mapping is relatively easy in a dipole field although the appropriate formulae are not easily accessible. They are derived and reviewed here with some examples. It is not possible to derive such formulae in more realistic geomagnetic field models. A new method is described in this paper for accurate mapping of electric fields along field lines, which can be used for any field model in which the magnetic field and its spatial derivatives can be computed. From the spatial derivatives of the magnetic field three first order differential equations are derived for the components of the normalized element of separation of two closely spaced field lines. These can be integrated along with the magnetic field tracing equations and Faraday's law used to obtain the electric field as a function of distance measured along the magnetic field line. The method is tested in a simple model consisting of a dipole field plus a magnetotail model. The method is shown to be accurate, convenient, and suitable for use with more realistic geomagnetic field models.

Hybrid Type

We have studied the behaviour of a charged particle in an axially symmetric magnetic field having a neutral point, so as to find a possibility of confining a charged particle in a thermonuclear device. In order to study the motion we have reduced a three-dimensional motion to a two-dimensional one by introducing a fictitious potential. Following Schmidt we have classified the motion, as an ‘off-axis motion’ and ‘encircling motion’ depending on the behaviour of this potential. We see that the particle performs a hybrid type of motion in the negative z-axis, i.e. at some instant it is in ‘off-axis motion’ while at another instant it is in ‘encircling motion’. We have also solved the equation of motion numerically and the graphs of the particle trajectory verify our analysis. We find that in most of the cases the particle is contained. The magnetic moment is found to be moderately adiabatic.

The Magnetic Field

In this work, we calculate the neutron anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) supposing that this value can depend on the density and magnetic field of the system. We employ the lowest-order constraint variation (LOCV) method and [Formula: see text] nuclear potential to calculate the medium dependency of the neutron AMM. It is confirmed that the neutron AMM increases by increasing the density, while it decreases as the magnetic field grows. The energy and equation of state for the system have also been investigated.
