Abstract We investigated the magnetic characteristics of Na2Co2TeO6 at different temperatures and magnetic field. The experimental results indicated that the magnetic field can disturb the antiferromagnetic interaction and lead to the disorder. Magnetization curves measured with different angles θ (θ is between the magnetic field direction and c axis) express the magnetocrystalline anisotropy in this system. when the angle θ=0 (magnetic field parallel to c axis), two continuous magnetic phase transitions at critical temperature TN1 and TN3 were observed. As θ changes, TN1 is almost independent on θ, indicating the magnetic ordering at TN1 was a spontaneous behavior with a robust AFM characteristic. On the other hand, as θ increases from 0 to 180, TN3 presents extreme value at θ=90 (magnetic field perpendicular to c axis). It indicates that TN3 were sensitive to temperature and magnetic fields. At some angles closing to ab plane, an additional phase transition was observed at TN2. This phase transition at TN2 may mainly result from the long range antiferromagnetic ordering within ab-plane. Furthermore, the magnetization measurement up to 50 T revealed the strong antiferromagnetic coupling in the system, and in which the magnetic coupling within the honeycomb layers is strong and the magnetic coupling interaction between honeycomb layers is weaker. Based on the experimental results, we have obtained the complete magnetic phase diagram.

The de Haas–van Alphen effect and the h.c.p.–f.c.c. phase transformation of ytterbium were studied with the magnetic field along the [0001] direction in the h.c.p. phase, using pressures up to 4 kbar. Solid helium was used as the pressure medium. The pressure dependence of the three dHvA frequencies in the h.c.p. phase for the [0001] magnetic field direction was linear within experimental error with dF/dP = −1.2 ± 0.2 T/kbar for F(P = 0) of 35.4 T, dF/dP = 0.30 ± 0.03 T/kbar for F(P = 0) of 142.5 T, and dF/dP = −0.78 ± 0.10 T/kbar for F(P = 0) of 156.4 T. The dHvA amplitude in the h.c.p. phase was independent of pressure up to the phase transition and no dHvA effect was observed in the f.c.c. phase. The pressure of the phase transformation at 1.2 K was determined to be 2.15 ± 0.05 kbar.

The critical behavior at the phase transition of the ferromagnetic two-dimensional anisotropic Ising model with next-nearest neighbor (NNN) couplings in the presence of the field is determined using mainly Monte Carlo (MC) method. This method is used to investigate the phase diagram of the model and to verify the existence of a divergence at null temperature which often appears in two-dimensional systems. We analyze also the influence of the report of the NNN interactions [Formula: see text] and the magnetic field [Formula: see text] on the critical temperature of the system, and we show that the critical temperature depends on the magnetic field for positive values of the interaction. Finally, we have investigated other thermodynamical qualities such as the magnetic susceptibility [Formula: see text]. It has been shown that their thermal behavior depends qualitatively and quantitatively on the strength of NNN interactions and the magnetic field.

In this paper, we explore the critical end point in the [Formula: see text] phase diagram of a thermomagnetic nonlocal Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model in the weak field limit. We work with the Gaussian regulator, and find that a crossover takes place at [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. The crossover turns to a first-order phase transition as the chemical potential or the magnetic field increases. The critical end point of the phase diagram occurs at a higher temperature and lower chemical potential as the magnetic field increases. This result is in accordance to similar findings in other effective models. We also find that there is a critical magnetic field, for which a first-order phase transition takes place even at [Formula: see text].

The phase diagram of low anisotropy antiferromagnets contains regions where small perturbations in the structure can induce rich interesting physical phenomenology that is still to be fully understood. This paper reviews the anomalies observed in site-diluted antiferromagnets in two regions of the magnetic phase diagram: the region where the magnetic field is very low, normally less than 10 Oe, and the spin-flop region. Although the observed phenomena is quite general, the magnetic behavior of the solid solutions A 2 Fe 1-x In x Cl 5· H 2 O , (A=K, Rb) is used to exemplify such anomalies.

Among the many surprises in the held of high temperature superconductivity, new features discovered in the magnetic phase diagram are among the most exciting and controversial, generating many new physical concepts and impacting practical applications. This brief review complements several other recent reviews and refers mostly to the bulk crystal (not ceramic) Y1Ba2Cu3O7 and Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2Ox materials, from now on denoted YBaCuO and BiSrCaCuO.The magnetic phase diagram of a conventional type II superconductor as a function of magnetic held H and temperature T is well known and understood in the mean-field Ginzburg-Landau and London theories. As shown in Figure 1a, a Meissner phase characterized by complete flux exclusion appears at low fields, delineated by a mean-field phase transition line called the lower critical field Hc1(T), which increases linearly with decreasing temperature below Tc and then saturates at low temperature. A second mean-field phase transition line, called the upper critical field Hc2(T), delineates the transition between the normal and superconducting states and shows a T-dependence similar to Hc1(T). In a strongly type II superconductor (in which the penetration depth λ is much larger than the coherence length ξ), the large region intervening between Hc1 and Hc2 is called the Abrikosov mixed phase. Here magnetic field penetrates the superconductor in the form of tubes of magnetic field called flux lines or vortices. In an ideal isotropic superconductor, these vortices self-organize into a hexagonal array. Defects disturb the hexagonal long-range order, causing the array to break up into a kind of glassy state with more or less short-range order.

When a magnetic field is applied parallel to the superconducting layers in high-Tc superconductors (HTSCs), vortices become Josphson vortices (JVs). To study the magnetic phase diagram of JVs in strongly anisotropic HTSCs, we propose that the JV flow-resistance measurement is a powerful probe to observe periodic oscillations in the JV flow-resistance against the magnetic field. We could determine the magnetic phase diagram of JVs in Bi -2212, in which there exist a three-dimensionally-ordered state and a two-dimensionally quasi-ordered one.

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.

AbstractWe analyze, using experiments and 3D MHD numerical simulations, the dynamic and radiative properties of a plasma ablated by a laser (1 ns, 10$$^{12}$$ 12 –10$$^{13}$$ 13 W/cm$$^2$$ 2 ) from a solid target as it expands into a homogeneous, strong magnetic field (up to 30 T) that is transverse to its main expansion axis. We find that as early as 2 ns after the start of the expansion, the plasma becomes constrained by the magnetic field. As the magnetic field strength is increased, more plasma is confined close to the target and is heated by magnetic compression. We also observe that after $$\sim 8$$ ∼ 8  ns, the plasma is being overall shaped in a slab, with the plasma being compressed perpendicularly to the magnetic field, and being extended along the magnetic field direction. This dense slab rapidly expands into vacuum; however, it contains only $$\sim 2\%$$ ∼ 2 % of the total plasma. As a result of the higher density and increased heating of the plasma confined against the laser-irradiated solid target, there is a net enhancement of the total X-ray emissivity induced by the magnetization.

It is reported in this paper on the thermally assisted flux flow in epitaxial YBa2Cu3O7-δ deposited by Laser ablation method on the SrTiO3 substrate. The resistivity measurements ρ (T, B) of the sample under various values of the magnetic field up to 14T in directions B∥ab-plane and B∥c-axis with a dc weak transport current density were investigated in order to determine the activation energy and then understand the vortex dynamic phenomena and therefore deduce the vortex phase diagram of this material. The apparent activation energy U0 (B) calculated using an Arrhenius relation. The measured results of the resistivity were then adjusted to the modified thermally assisted flux flow model in order to account for the temperature-field dependence of the activation energy U (T, B). The obtained values from the thermally assisted activation energy, exhibit a behavior similar to the one showed with the Arrhenius model, albeit larger than the apparent activation energy with ∼1.5 order on magnitude for both cases of the magnetic field directions. The vortex glass model was also used to obtain the vortex-glass transition temperature from the linear fitting of [d ln ρ/dT ] −1 plots. In the course of this work thanks to the resistivity measurements the upper critical magnetic field Hc2 (T), the irreversibility line Hirr (T) and the crossover field HCrossOver (T) were located. These three parameters allowed us to establish a phase diagram of the studied material where limits of each vortex phase are sketched in order to optimize its applicability as a practical high temperature superconductor used for diverse purposes.
