Abstract Plasma formation on the surface of conductors as a result of a skin explosion is one of the key issues of the efficiency of energy transportation along the vacuum lines of terawatt-level pulsed generators. Experimental studies of plasma formation on the surface of flat conductors were carried out on the MIG generator (current level ~ 2.5 MA, rise time ~ 100 ns). The magnitude of the magnetic field induction exceeded the values required for the explosion of the conductor surface facing the magnetic field in an asymmetric configuration or both surfaces of the conductor in a symmetric configuration. It was shown that in both configurations, a plasma channel is formed on the surface of a copper foil with a thickness of 100 microns along its longitudinal axis. Experimental data on the dynamics of plasma formation at the edges of a flat conductor have been obtained. A magnetohydrodynamic simulation of an explosion in strong magnetic fields of flat conductors whose width is much greater than their thickness showed that: the expansion of the plasma along the width of the conductor is suppressed, and the plasma expands mainly along its thickness. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental once.

The magnetic field induced elastic deformations of nematic liquid crystals are studied theoretically. In accordance with the theory of Dafermos, two types of elastic deformations are predicted which differ in energy. The properties of the metastable deformations are discussed in detail. Experimental studies have been performed on MBBA using electrical conductivity measurements. Metastable deformations are obtained after rotating the direction of the magnetic field by more than 90° with respect to the direction of the homeotropically aligned sample. The observed conductivity values are in good agreement with theory.

According to Van Gelder the microwave absorption by a thin metal film in the presence of a static magnetic field normal to the film contains a series of peaks as the magnetic field is varied. In the present paper it is argued that these peaks correspond to Doppler-shifted cyclotron resonances of the carriers in the metal due to the quantization of electron momenta normal to the plane of the film. A simple quantum calculation is presented for the case of free electrons where the film is thin enough that to first order the microwave fields within are determined only by the boundary conditions and Maxwell's equations. The quantum expression is in good agreement with the absorption calculated using semiclassical arguments which can be readily extended to more complicated Fermi surfaces.

We investigate the behaviour of the plasma parameters in the magnetosheath in a case when Interball-1 satellite stayed in the magnetosheath, crossing the tail magnetopause. In our analysis we apply the numerical magnetosheath-magnetosphere model as a theoretical tool. The bow shock and the magnetopause are self-consistently determined in the process of the solution. The flow in the magnetosheath is governed by the Euler equations of compressible ideal gas. The magnetic field in the magnetosphere is calculated by a variant of the Tsyganenko model, modified to account for an asymmetric magnetopause. Also, the magnetopause currents in Tsyganenko model are replaced by numericaly calulated ones. Measurements from WIND spacecraft are used as a solar wind monitor. The results demonstrate a good agreement between the model-calculated and measured values of the parameters under investigation.

Magneto-electrochemistry (MEC) is a unique paradigm in science, where electrochemical experiments are carried out as a function of an applied magnetic field, creating a new horizon of potential scientific interest and technological applications. Over time, detailed understanding of this research domain was developed to identify and rationalize the possible effects exerted by a magnetic field on the various microscopic processes occurring in an electrochemical system. Notably, until a few years ago, the role of spin was not taken into account in the field of magneto-electrochemistry. Remarkably, recent experimental studies reveal that electron transmission through chiral molecules is spin selective and this effect has been referred to as the chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect. Spin-dependent electrochemistry originates from the implementation of the CISS effect in electrochemistry, where the magnetic field is used to obtain spin-polarized currents (using ferromagnetic electrodes) or, conversely, a magnetic field is obtained as the result of spin accumulation.

Experimental and theoretical investigations of the resistance of the La1.2Sr1.8Mn2O7 single crystal in magnetic fields from 0 to 90 kOe and in the temperature range from 75 to 300 K has been studied. The magnetoresistance is determined by the “spin-polaron” and “orientation” conduction mechanisms. Using the method of separating contributions to the magnetoresistance from several conduction mechanisms, the observed magnetoresistance of La1.2Sr1.8Mn2O7 manganite in the temperature range of 75-300 K is described, good agreement between the calculated and experimental data is obtained. In a magnetic field of 0 and 90 kOe, the temperature dependences of the size of the spin polaron (in relative units) are calculated for the temperature range 75–300 K. It is shown, that the КМС value is determined by an increase in the linear size of the spin polaron (along the magnetic field), i.e. the main role in the magnitude of the colossal magnetoresistance is made by the change in the size of the magnetic inhomogeneities of the crystal.

In a rarefied polyatomic gas streaming through a rectangular channel, an external magnetic field produces a heat flux perpendicular to the flow direction. Experiments on this “viscom agnetic heat flux” have been performed for CO, N2, CH4 and HD at room temperature, with different orientations of the magnetic field. Such measurements enable one to separate the boundary layer contribution from the purely bulk contribution by means of the theory recently developed by Vestner. Very good agreement is found between the experimentally determined bulk contribution and the theoretical Burnett value for CO, N2 and CH4 , yet the behavior of HD is found to be anomalous.

AbstractUsing the MHD version of Gadget3 (Stasyszyn, Dolag & Beck 2013) and a model for the seeding of magnetic fields by supernovae (SN), we performed simulations of the evolution of the magnetic fields in galaxy clusters and study their effects on the heat transport within the intra cluster medium (ICM). This mechanism – where SN explosions during the assembly of galaxies provide magnetic seed fields – has been shown to reproduce the magnetic field in Milky Way-like galactic halos (Beck et al. 2013). The build up of the magnetic field at redshifts before z = 5 and the accordingly predicted rotation measure evolution are also in good agreement with current observations. Such magnetic fields present at high redshift are then transported out of the forming protogalaxies into the large-scale structure and pollute the ICM (in a similar fashion to metals transport). Here, complex velocity patterns, driven by the formation process of cosmic structures are further amplifying and distributing the magnetic fields. In galaxy clusters, the magnetic fields therefore get amplified to the observed μG level and produce the observed amplitude of rotation measures of several hundreds of rad/m2. We also demonstrate that heat conduction in such turbulent fields on average is equivalent to a suppression factor around 1/20th of the classical Spitzer value and in contrast to classical, isotropic heat transport leads to temperature structures within the ICM compatible with observations (Arth et al. 2014).
