A trajectory passing through a given point in a given direction is completely determined if its curvature and torsion are known functions of its arc length. Relativistic expressions for the curvature and torsion in terms of the electric and magnetic field distributions are derived below. Besides their intrinsic interest these expressions may be useful in the analytical solution of some simple trajectory problems.

We have measured photoconductivity spectra in a InGaAs/GaAs superlattice subjected to longitudinal electric and magnetic fields. We have observed a clear sharpening of the excitonic features in the spectra as the fields increases. Furthermore, the intensity of excitons involving spatially separated electrons and holes increases with increasing magnetic field relative to that of vertical excitons. These observations can be interpreted with a model that lakes into account exciton wavefunction shrinkage induced by magnetic field. Oblique excitons have a smaller binding energy than vertical excitons and are therefore more sensitive to magnetic localization, which enhances their oscillator strength relative to that of vertical excitons. Strong exciton interactions are also observed, giving rise to level anticrossings.

Abstract. Recent observations endorse earlier measurements of time varying electric and magnetic fields generated by tornadoes and dust devils. These signals may provide a means for early warning but together with a proper modeling approach can also provide insight into geometry and dynamics of the vortices. Our model calculations show the existence of pressure resonances characterized as acoustic duct modes with well defined frequencies. These resonances not only generate infrasound but also modulate the charge density and the velocity field and in this way lead to electric and magnetic field oscillations in the 0.5–20-Hz range that can be monitored from a distance of several kilometers.

Molecular alignment in the nematic phase of p-methoxy benzylidene p′-n-butylaniline (MBBA) in the presence of electric and magnetic fields is investigated. The relative effectiveness of electric and magentic fields on the nematic liquid crystal MBBA is discussed. In the dielectric regime it is found that the threshold fields for chevron formation are considerably different from the threshold fields for inducing changes in the dielectric constant.

The Schwinger effect in the presence of instantons and background magnetic field was considered to study the dependence of critical electric field on instanton density and magnetic field using AdS/CFT conjecture. The gravity side is the near horizon limit of D3[Formula: see text]D(−[Formula: see text]1) background with electric and magnetic fields on the brane. Our approach is based on the potential analysis for particle–antiparticle pair at zero and finite temperatures, where the zero temperature case is a semi-confining theory. We find that presence of instantons suppresses the pair creation effect, similar to a background magnetic field. Then, the production rate will be obtained numerically using the expectation value of circular Wilson loop. The obtained production rate in a magnetic field is in agreement with previous results.

Abstract A Morris-Lecar neuron model is considered with Electric and Magnetic field effects where the electric field is a time varying sinusoid and magnetic field is simulated using an exponential flux memristor. We have shown that the exposure to electric and magnetic fields have significant effects on the neurons and have exhibited complex oscillations. The neurons exhibit a frequency-locked state for the periodic electric field and different ratios of frequency locked states with respect to the electric field frequency is also presented. To show the impact of the electric and magnetic fields on network of neurons, we have constructed different types of network and have shown the network wave propagation phenomenon. Interestingly the nodes exposed to both electric and magnetic fields exhibit more stable spiral waves compared to the nodes exhibited only to the magnetic fields. Also, when the number of layers are increased the range of electric field frequency for which the layers exhibit spiral waves also increase. Finally the noise effects on the field affected neuron network are discussed and multilayer networks supress spiral waves for a very low noise variance compared against the single layer network.

Relativistic classical and quantum dynamics of twisted (vortex) Dirac particles in arbitrary electric and magnetic fields is constructed. The relativistic Hamiltonian and equations of motion in the Foldy-Wouthuysen representation are derived. Methods for the extraction of an electron vortex beam with a given orbital polarization and for the manipulation of such a beam are developed. The new effect of a radiative orbital polarization of a twisted electron beam in a magnetic field resulting in a nonzero average projection of the intrinsic orbital angular momentum on the field direction is predicted.

A quaternionic commutator bracket for position and momentum shows that the quaternionic wave function, viz. ψ ˜ = ( i c ψ 0 , ψ → ) , represents a state of a particle with orbital angular momentum, L = 3 ℏ , resulting from the internal structure of the particle. This angular momentum can be attributed to spin of the particle. The vector ψ → , points in an opposite direction of L → . When a charged particle is placed in an electromagnetic field, the interaction energy reveals that the magnetic moments interact with the electric and magnetic fields giving rise to terms similar to Aharonov–Bohm and Aharonov–Casher effects.

AbstractAcoustomagnetoelectric Effect (AME) in Graphene Nanoribbon (GNR) in the presence of an external electric and magnetic fields was studied using the Boltzmann kinetic equation. On open circuit, the Surface Acoustomagnetoelectric field (ESAME) in GNR was obtained in the region ql >> 1, for energy dispersion "(p) near the Fermi level. The dependence of ESAME on the dimensional factor (ɳ), the sub-band index (pi), and the width (N) of GNR were analyzed numerically. For ESAME versus ɳ, a non-linear graph was obtained. From the graph, at ɳ < 0.62, the obtained graph qualitatively agreed with that experimentally observed in graphite. However at ɳ > 0.62, the ⃗ESAME falls rapidly to a minimum value. We observed that in GNR, the maximum ⃗ESAME was obtained at magnetic field H = 3.2Am−1. The graphs obtainedwere modulated by varying the subband index pi with an inversion observed when pi = 6. The dependence of ESAME on the width N for various pi was also studied where, ⃗ESAME decreases for increase in pi. To enhanced the understanding of ESAME on the N and ɳ, a 3D graph was plotted. This study is relevant for investigating the properties of GNR.
