The carbon-encapsulated superparamagnetic colloidal nanoparticles (SCNps) were rigidized into soft solids by embedding the SCNps into polyacrylamide hydrogel matrixes under the induction of an external magnetic field. Stabilized by the balance of attractive (magnetic) and repulsive (electrostatic) forces, the SCNps form one-dimension photonic crystal structures along the direction of the external magnetic field and further the structures are frozen into the solidified polymer matrix. The polymer matrix embedded one-dimension photonic crystal structures can strongly diffract visible light and present brilliant color in the light. This novel and soft solid polymer matrix that could be shaped and sliced not only paves a new avenue for develop novel magnetic-responsive photonic crystal materials and devices, but also provides a method to observe the magnetic-induced self-assembly structures of the SCNps in media such as polyacrylamide hydrogel matrixs as a result of the ordered structures frozen into the polyacrylamide hydrogel matrixs. So we can reveal the relationship between their structure and color, and furthermore permit a systematic exploration on magnetically induced self-assembling dynamics, colloidal crystallography which have important significance in the large-scale industrial production in the future.

Abstract The mining in physics and biology for accelerating the hardcore algorithm to solve non-deterministic polynomial (NP) hard problems has inspired a great amount of special-purpose ma-chine models. Ising machine has become an efficient solver for various combinatorial optimization problems. As a computing accelerator, large-scale photonic spatial Ising machine have great advantages and potentials due to excellent scalability and compact system. However, current fundamental limitation of photonic spatial Ising machine is the configuration flexibility of problem implementation in the accelerator model. Arbitrary spin interaction is highly desired for solving various NP hard problems. Moreover, the absence of external magnetic field in the proposed photonic Ising machine will further narrow the freedom to map the optimization applications. In this paper, we propose a novel quadrature photonic spatial Ising machine to break through the limitation of photonic Ising accelerator by synchronous phase manipulation in two and three sections. Max-cut problem solution with graph order of 100 and density from 0.5 to 1 is experimentally demonstrated after almost 100 iterations. We derive and verify using simulation the solution for Max-cut problem with more than 1600 nodes and the system tolerance for light misalignment. Moreover, vertex cover problem, modeled as an Ising model with external magnetic field, has been successfully implemented to achieve the optimal solution. Our work suggests flexible problem solution by large-scale photonic spatial Ising machine.


In this paper, we investigated a new large-scale instability that arises in an obliquely rotating convective electrically conducting fluid in an external uniform magnetic field with a small-scale external force with zero helicity. This force excites small-scale velocity oscillations with a small Reynolds number. Using the method of multiscale asymptotic expansions, we obtain the nonlinear equations for vortex and magnetic disturbances in the third order of the Reynolds number. It is shown that the combined effects of the Coriolis force and the small external forces in a rotating conducting fluid possible large-scale instability. The linear stage of the magneto-vortex dynamo arising as a result of instabilities of -effect type is investigated. The mechanism of amplification of large-scale vortex disturbances due to the development of the hydrodynamic - effect taking into account the temperature stratification of the medium is studied. It was shown that a «weak» external magnetic field contributes to the generation of large-scale vortex and magnetic perturbations, while a «strong» external magnetic field suppresses the generation of magnetic-vortex perturbations. Numerical methods have been used to find stationary solutions of the equations of a nonlinear magneto-vortex dynamo in the form of localized chaotic structures in two cases when there is no external uniform magnetic field and when it is present.

High temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes could be introduced into large scale wind power generators in order to improve the power density. However, the alternating current (AC) loss of HTS tapes will cause the reduction of efficiency. On the basis of analytical and numerical model calculations, this paper presents an optimal design of the HTS armature winding aiming at lower AC loss. The main contribution of this work is that the relationship between the installation parameters and the AC loss of such HTS armature windings has been figured out based on the analysis of the shape feature of the HTS tape and the external magnetic field. When the tape is placed along a particular direction where the perpendicular component of external magnetic field has the lowest amplitude, the AC loss is the smallest. The modified installation location and angle are found based on the proposed generator. These results are verified using finite element method (FEM).

AbstractThe large-scale coronal structures observed during the sporadically visible solar eclipses were compared with the numerically extrapolated field-line structures of coronal magnetic field. A characteristic relationship between the observed structures of coronal plasma and the magnetic field line configurations was determined. The long-term evolution of large scale coronal structures inferred from photospheric magnetic observations in the course of 11- and 22-year solar cycles is described.Some known parameters, such as the source surface radius, or coronal rotation rate are discussed and actually interpreted. A relation between the large-scale photospheric magnetic field evolution and the coronal structure rearrangement is demonstrated.
