Abstract In this work we present a mobile 43 kJ pulsed magnetic field facility for single pulse calibration of magnetic field sensors. The magnetic field generator is capable of generating magnetic fields up to 40 T with pulse durations in the range of 0.3-2 ms. The high power crowbar circuit is used for the reverse voltage protection and pulse shaping purposes. The structure, the development challenges and the implemented solutions to improve the facility for the calibration of the magnetic field sensors are overviewed. The experimental data of the application of the proposed generator for the calibration of manganite magnetic field sensors are presented.

Abstract In conjunction with the High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider accelerator at CERN, the ATLAS detector is also undergoing an upgrade to handle the significantly higher data rates. The muon end-cap system upgrade in ATLAS, lies with the replacement of the Small Wheel. The New Small Wheel (NSW) is expected to combine high tracking precision with upgraded information for the Level-1 trigger. To accomplish this, small Thin Gap Chamber (sTGC) and MicroMegas detector technologies are being deployed. Due to their installation location in ATLAS, the effects of Barrel Toroid and End-Cap Toroid magnets on NSW must be measured. For the final experiment at ATLAS, each sTGC large double wedge will be equipped with magnetic field Hall effect sensors to monitor the magnetic field near the NSW. The readout is done with an Embedded Local Monitor Board (ELMB) called MDT DCS Module (MDM). For the integration of this hardware in the experiment, first, a detector control system was developed to test the functionality of all sensors before their installation on the detectors. Subsequently, another detector control system was developed for the commissioning of the sensors. Finally, a detector control system based on the above two is under development for the expert panels of ATLAS experiment. In this paper, the sensor readout, the connectivity mapping and the detector control systems will be presented.

From Maxwell’s equations and Ohm’s law for a horizontally anisotropic medium, it may be shown that two independent plane wave modes propagate perpendicular to the plane of the anisotropy. Boundary conditions at the interfaces in an n‐layered model permit the calculation, through successive matrix multiplications, of the fields at the surface in terms of the fields propagated into the basal infinite half space. Specifying the magnetic field at the surface allows the calculation of the resultant electric fields, and the calculation of the entries of a tensor impedance relationship. These calculations have been programmed for the digital computer and an interpretation of impedances obtained from field measurements may thus be made in terms of the anisotropic layering. In addition, apparent resistivities in orthogonal directions have been calculated for specific models and compared to experimental data. It is apparent that the large scatter of observed resistivities can be caused by small changes in the polarization of the magnetic field.

AbstractWe describe the experiments on a magnetically-induced drift of the easy axis on a soft surface of photoaligning material fluoro-polyvinyl-cinnamate. We found unexpected partial relaxation of the drift of the easy axis after switching the magnetic field off. This relaxation cannot be explained in a framework of the existing models and requires additional assumptions about the drift process. We propose a model that explains the experimental data suggesting elastic-like behaviour of the polymer fragments during the drift of the easy axis.

We discuss a stochastic model for the behavior of electrons in a magnetically confined plasma having axial symmetry. The aim of the work is to provide an explanation for the density limit observed in the Frascati Tokamak Upgrade (FTU) machine. The dynamical framework deals with an electron embedded in a stationary and uniform magnetic field and affected by an orthogonal random electric field. The behavior of the average plasma profile is determined by the appropriate Fokker–Planck equation associated to the considered model and the disruptive effects of the stochastic electric field are shown. The comparison between the addressed model and the experimental data allows to fix the relevant spatial scale of such a stochastic field. It is found to be of the order of the Tokamak micro-physics scale, i.e. few millimeters. Moreover, it is clarified how the diffusion process outlines a dependence on the magnetic field as [Formula: see text].

Magnetoresistive switch effect (MRS effect) devices containing two gold (Au) electrodes with a gap less than 2 µm were successfully fabricated on semi-insulting GaAs substrates by wet etching method. Huge MRS effect was observed. Magnetoresistance (MR) ratio reached 1,000,000% under the magnetic filed of 1.5 T when the devices were operated just above the threshold voltage. The magnetic field sensitivity at small magnetic fields was significantly improved. MR ratio of more than 1000% was achieved at 0.03 T. A relative high MR ratio of 100,000% under the magnetic filed of 1.5 T was also achieved when the devices operating before the threshold voltage.

The Matteucci effect (ME) is one of the lesser-known magnetomechanical effects and is most prominent in bistable amorphous wires. It has some experimental applications—Matteucci effect-based magnetic field sensors are very easy to produce and have inherently linear, hybrid analog/digital output signal. The effect is still poorly understood, however, and although it relies on torsion of the wire to manifest, there is no available model, or much experimental data, which would quantitatively connect the ME with the sample twist. In this paper, experimental characteristics of ME signal parameters dependence on torsion in Co-based amorphous bistable wire are presented. The results hint at possible applications, such as rotation or critical current sensors, as well as the necessity of torsion control in the development of ME magnetic field sensors.

The temperature, magnetic field and ion doping dependence of the phonon properties of CuFeO2 are studied on the basis of a microscopic model and using Green’s function technique. The phonon energy decreases with increasing temperature, whereas the phonon damping increases. There is a kink at the phase transition temperature [Formula: see text] which shows the influence of the magnetic field on the phonon properties. The kinks vanish by applying an external magnetic field. By doping of ions with different radius compared to the Fe ion, the phonon energy in CuFeO2 can increase (Ga) or decrease (Sc) with increasing dopant concentration, whereas the damping is always enhanced. The results are compared with those of CuCrO2. Some discrepancies in the literature are discussed. The observed results are in qualitative agreement with the experimental data.

Resistivity measurements in external applied magnetic field up to 8.5T have been performed on Bi2Sr2CuO6+δ/CaCuO2 superconducting superlattices obtained by MBE. The magnetic field (H) vs. temperature (T) phase diagrams have been determined and the experimental data have been compared with that obtained in the case of Bi2Sr2CuO6+δ thin films deposited with the same technique. A reduction of the anisotropy has been obtained in the case of the superlattices with respect to the case of Bi2Sr2CuO6+δ thin films and a three dimensional behavior has been observed by paraconductivity measurements.

Magnetorheological fluids are known to respond in a matter of milliseconds to the application of a magnetic field. To date, however, very little work has been done to study the time dependence of the MR response. The purpose of this study is to investigate the response time of the fluid. Experiments were conducted on a high shear rate rheometer capable of fluid speeds in excess of 35 m/s. With an MR valve length of 6.35 mm, the resulting dwell times were as low as 0.18 ms. For each of three magnetic field strengths, a reduction in yield stress is observed as dwell time decreases. A model is proposed to represent the time response of the fluid to the application of the magnetic field. The experimental data and the proposed model are used to identify the response time of the fluid for each field strength. Results indicate that as the magnetic field increases, the response time of the MR fluid decreases. For the range of magnetic field strengths considered in this study the response time of the fluid ranged from 0.24 ms to 0.19 ms.
