ABSTRACTIn this work, the formation of d-wave superconducting magnetic vortex is studied within the Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism and the generalized Hubbard model, which leads to 2N2 coupled self-consistent equations for a supercell of N×N atoms. These equations determine the spatial variation of the superconducting gap as a function of the electron concentration and electron-electron interactions. The results show that the superconducting states induced by the correlated hopping (Δt3) are more sensitive to the presence of magnetic field than those induced by attractive nearest-neighbor interaction (V). Furthermore, we calculate the electronic specific heat as a function of the temperature for a given applied magnetic field, whose behavior has a qualitative agreement with experimental data.

The behavior of the compensation of a mixed spin-1 and spin-1/2 Heisenberg ferrimagnetic system on a square lattice is investigated theoretically by a two-time Green-function technique which takes into account the quantum nature of Heisenberg spins. The model includes the nearest and next-nearest neighbor interactions between spins, a crystal field and an external magnetic field. This model can be relevant for understanding the magnetic behavior of bimetallic molecular ferrimagnets that are currently being synthesized by several experimental groups. We study the spin-wave spectra of the ground state and investigate the effects of the next-nearest neighbor interactions, a crystal field and an external magnetic field on the compensation temperature. It is found that a compensation point appears and it is basically unchanged when the next-nearest-neighbor interaction between spin-1/2 is taken into account and exceeds a minimum value for other values in Hamiltonian fixed. The compensation temperature is influenced by the next-nearest-neighbor interaction between spin-1 and the external magnetic field and it is disappearing as these parameters exceed the trivial values.

Inspired by the work by Kämmerer, Dünweg, Binder, and d'Onorio de Meo we investigated the spin-[Formula: see text] Ising antiferromagnet on a fcc lattice in a homogeneous external magnetic field H with uniform nearest-neighbor interaction J by Monte Carlo simulations. In order to answer the open question whether this system exhibits a triple point or a multicritical point for positive H, we mainly studied lattices with 4 · 323 and 4 · 723 spins. We found a multicritical point at (Hc, kBTc) = (3.49 ± 0.02, 1.02 ± 0.01) J in the thermodynamic limit.

The paper reviews the entanglement behavior of a 2-qubit system in a quantum spin glass using the Heisenberg XX model and the interaction of the system with a spin glass bath environment. In the first part, we study the entanglement (concurrence) for a 3- and 4-qubit with nearest neighbor interaction. With a fixed mean and varying standard deviation for the J coupling, the concurrence is numerically plotted with temperature for the different configurations. A general formula for the concurrence is given for n qubits at low temperature. In the second part, we study the concurrence of a 2-qubit system coupled to a spin glass bath environment with n = 2 to ≥ 4 qubits. The bath sites are coupled with random J coupling and varying applied magnetic field. A general formula for concurrence is given for mean J = 0 and B = 0 for n bath sites. For small random J and magnetic field B, a steady state is obtained with an approximate concurrence of 0.5, showing that the entanglement is preserved.

AbstractWe have extended the Neél model of surface anisotropy in b.c.c. crystals to include next nearest neighbor interaction. Fitting the experimental data for Fe (001) and (110) surfaces leads to some pradoxes which cast doubt on the Neél surface anisotropy as the dominant source of surface anisotropy in thin films.

In this paper we derived a new condition of formation and stability of all crystalline systems and we checked its validity andit is found to be in a good agreement with experimental data. This condition is derived directly from the quantum conditionson the free electron Fermi gas inside the crystal. The new condition relates both the volume of Fermi sphere VF andvolume of Brillouin zone VB by the valence electron concentration VEC as ;𝑽𝑭𝑽𝑩= 𝒏𝑽𝑬𝑪𝟐for all crystalline systems (wheren is the number of atoms per lattice point).

In this work we present a soft crawler fabricated using a magneto-active elastomer. The crawler is controlled by an external magnetic field to produce two locomotion patterns: peristaltic and caterpillar crawling. Due to its structural simplicity, low mass, wirelessly controlled actuation and compliant body the design of this crawler has the potential to address the key challenges faced by existing crawling robots. Experimental data were gathered to evaluate the performance of the crawler locomotion in a pipe. The results validated the mathematical models proposed to estimate the distance traveled by the crawler. The crawler shows potential for use in exploration of confined spaces.
