A report is given of a ten-year observational program directed toward the discovery and investigation of the magnetic fields of stars through the Zeeman effect in their spectra. The emphasis has been on the sharp-line stars of type A, of which ten have been found to show irregular magnetic fluctuations without reversal of polarity, ten others to fluctuate irregularly with occasional reversals of polarity, and six to show essentially periodic variations; of the latter group, four are large-amplitude reversers with periods near one week.

AbstractWe propose a new possible detection strategy to reveal the fermion–fermion interaction mediated by axions and axion-like particles, based on interferometric measurement of neutron beams. We consider an interferometer in which the neutron beam is split in two sub-beams propagating in regions with differently oriented magnetic fields. The beam paths and the strength of the magnetic fields are set in such a way that the phase difference depends only on the axion-induced interaction. The resulting phase difference is directly related to the presence of axions. Our results show that such a phase might represent, in the future, a tool to probe the existence of axions and axion-like particles or a fifth force with interferometry.

AbstractDifferential rotation is described in stellar dynamo models as one of the fundamental phenomena governing the amplification of magnetic fields in active stars.Using indirect imaging methods, the measurement of photospheric differential rotation is now achieved on a growing number of very active stars, a fraction of which exhibit temporal fluctuations of potentially large amplitude in their latitudinal shear, on a time-scale of a few years. I first describe the modeling tools on which such analysis is based, then discuss the implications of this observational work on our understanding of stellar dynamos and of the impact stellar magnetic fields may have on the dynamics of convective envelopes.

Waves in a magnetized electron–positron plasma, supporting a large-amplitude electric field E0 of superluminal phase speed, are considered. The case of perturbations with the same phase speed as the large-amplitude wave can be treated exactly, and we restrict our attention to this case, obtaining analytical results. The exact analytical results provide insight into the effect of the magnetic field and the large-amplitude wave on the harmonic structure of the perturbations. Three solutions are found for waves polarized perpendicular to E0. Waves are amplitude-modulated for weak magnetic fields (relative to the strength of the large-amplitude wave) and frequency-modulated for strong magnetic fields. This suggests that frequency modulation may be relevant to pulsars.

This article investigates the influence of frequency on the field-dependent non-linear rheology of magnetorheological (MR) grease under large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS). First, the LAOS tests with different driving frequencies were conducted on MR grease at four magnetic fields, and the storage and loss moduli under the frequency of 0.1, 0.5, 1, and 5 Hz were compared to obtain an overall understanding of the frequency-dependent viscoelastic behavior of MR grease. Based on this, the three-dimensional (3D) Lissajous curves and decomposed stress curves under two typical frequencies were depicted to provide the non-linear elastic and viscous behavior. Finally, the elastic and viscous measures containing higher harmonics from Fourier transform (FT)-Chebyshev analysis were used to quantitatively interpret the influence of the frequency on the non-linear rheology of MR grease, namely, strain stiffening (softening) and shear thickening (thinning), under LAOS with different magnetic fields. It was found that, under the application of the magnetic field, the onset of the non-linear behavior of MR grease was frequency-dependent. However, when the shear strain amplitude increased in the post-yield region, the non-linear rheology of MRG-70 was not affected by the oscillatory frequency.

AbstractIt is shown that the ponderomotive force of a large-amplitude electromagnetic wave in Rydberg plasmas can generate quasi-stationary magnetic fields. The present result can account for the origin of seed magnetic fields in the ultracold Rydberg plasmas when they are irradiated by the high-frequency electromagnetic wave.
