ABSTRACTWe present evidence for a new type of giant magnetoresistance in (111) cobalt-copper superlattices with atomically smooth interfaces. We propose that the lowered dimensionality of the structure leads to an enhancement of the scattering of conduction electrons from paramagnetic interfaces obeying a Langevin-like saturation at very high fields, well beyond the switching field of the Co layers. The findings help to explain similarities in magnetotransport behavior with recently reported granular systems as well as differences with antiferromagnetically coupled Multilayers.

Magneto-optical rotation by transmission through or reflection from solids is examined by the classical free electron theory, with the view of taking such a measurement using fields in the megagauss range. In general the rotation is a markedly non-linear function of the magnetic field, and in some cases can change in sign as the field increases. For very low fields the rotation varies directly with B, but in the high field limit the rotation varies inversely with the field. For substances in which the intercollision time of the electron is small, measurements of the Kerr rotation (i.e. by reflection) will give the electron mobility as a function of the magnetic field, and thus will give important data which can be used in conjunction with high field magnetoresistance experiments.

ABSTRACTThe magnetization of antiferromagnetic superconducting GdBa2Cu3O6+δ has been measured for ∼1.5 < T ≤4.2 K for magnetic fields up to ∼20 T. We found that all Gd3+ spins are nearly parallel at very high fields, and that this saturated spin subsystem coexists with superconductivity. Below the Neel temperature, 2.22 K, we observed the transition from the “canted” phase to the paramagnetic phase by the application of a high magnetic field. The temperature dependence of this phase transition is also reported.

In the near future, it is highly expected that smart grid (SG) utilities will replace existing fixed pricing with dynamic pricing, such as time-of-use real-time tariff (ToU). In ToU, the price of electricity varies throughout the whole day based on the respective utilities’ decisions. We classify the whole day into two periods with very high and low probabilities of theft activities, termed as the “theft window” and “non-theft window”, respectively. A “smart” malicious consumer can adjust his/her theft to mostly targeting the theft window, manipulate actual usage reporting to outsmart existing theft detectors, and achieve the goal of “paying reduced tariff”. Simulation results show that existing schemes do not detect well such window-based theft activities conversely exploiting ToU strategies. In this paper, we begin by introducing the core concept of window-based theft cases, which is defined at the basis of ToU pricing as well as consumption usage. A modified extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) based machine learning (ML) technique called dynamic electricity theft detector (DETD) has been presented to detect a new type of theft cases.

Learning usually improves the accuracy of beliefs through the accumulation of experience. But are there limits to learning that prevent us from accurately understanding our world? In this paper we investigate the concept of a “learning trap”—the formation of a stable false belief even with extensive experience. Our review highlights how these traps develop though the interaction of learning and decision making in unknown environments. We further document a particularly pernicious learning trap driven by selective attention, a mechanism often assumed to facilitate learning in complex environments. Using computer simulation we demonstrate the key attributes of the agent and environment that lead to this new type of learning trap. Then, in a series of experiments we present evidence that people robustly fall into this trap, even in the presence of various interventions predicted to meliorate it. These results highlight a fundamental limit to learning and adaptive behavior that impacts individuals, organizations, animals, and machines.
