Assuming the Born-Markov approximation, we study the evolution of quantum fidelity in asymmetric systems consisting of two and three-mode independent oscillators interacting with a thermal bath. To this end, considering the Penning trap coherent states as the initial states of the system, we have studied the evolution of the quantum fidelity as a function of the parameters of the system, the environment and the initial state, in the framework of open systems theory. It is observed that fidelity is a decreasing function of the temperature and dissipation coefficient for both two and three-mode states. However, for the two-mode state, the fidelity is an oscillating function of time but a decreasing one in the low values of the magnetic field. In the case of a three-mode state, although the fidelity decreases with the magnetic field, dissipation coefficient and temperature, it is an irregular function of the asymmetric coefficient.

By studying, within the relativistic framework, the propagation of so-called infinitesimal discontinuities throughout a magnetized elastic perfect conductor in an initial state of high hydrostatic pressure p 0 and in the presence of a magnetic field of arbitrary strength, it is proven that there hold universal relations (i. e., that do not depend on the exact equation of state of the body) between the speeds U f and U s of so-called fast and slow magnetoelastic modes. These results, which should hold true in the crust of dense magnetic stars, have the following form. If A 0 is the relativistic Alfvén number of the initial state and a 0 is the sound speed of a fictitious relativistic perfect fluid whose law of compression would yield the initial pressure p o , then (with nondimensional speeds) U 2 / f = 4/3[ U 2 s (1+ A 2 0 ]+( a 2 0 -4/3 A 2 0 ) for a propagation along the magnetic field and U 2 f (1+ A 2 0 )=4/3 U 2 s +( a 2 0 + A 2 0 ) for a propagation in a direction orthogonal to the magnetic field. These results generalize previous results obtained in relativistic elasticity by Carter and Maugin.

We describe the generation of quantum correlations (entanglement, discord and steering) in a system composed of two coupled non-resonant bosonic modes immersed in a common thermal reservoir, in the framework of the theory of open systems. We show that for separable initial squeezed thermal states entanglement generation may take place, for definite values of squeezing parameter, average photon numbers, temperature of the thermal bath, dissipation constant and strength of interaction between the two bosonic modes. We also show that for initial uni-modal squeezed states Gaussian discord can be generated for all non-zero values of the strength of interaction between the modes. Likewise, for an initial separable state, a generation of Gaussian steering may take place temporarily, for definite values of the parameters characterizing the initial state and the thermal environment, and the strength of coupling between the two modes.

By considering an idealized model of helically forced flow in an extended domain that allows scale separation, we have investigated the interaction between dynamo action on different spatial scales. The evolution of the magnetic field is studied numerically, from an initial state of weak magnetization, through the kinematic and into the dynamic regime. We show how the choice of initial conditions is a crucial factor in determining the structure of the magnetic field at subsequent times. For a simulation with initial conditions chosen to favour the growth of the small-scale field, the evolution of the large-scale magnetic field can be described in terms of the α-effect of mean field magnetohydrodynamics. We have investigated this feature further by a series of related numerical simulations in smaller domains. Of particular significance is that the results are consistent with the existence of a nonlinearly driven α-effect that becomes saturated at very small amplitudes of the mean magnetic field.

The heating of the solar corona is probably due to reconnection of the highly complex magnetic field that threads throughout its volume. We have run a numerical experiment of an elementary interaction between the magnetic field of two photospheric sources in an overlying field that represents a fundamental building block of the coronal heating process. The key to explaining where, how and how much energy is released during such an interaction is to calculate the resulting evolution of the magnetic skeleton. A skeleton is essentially the web of magnetic flux surfaces (called separatrix surfaces) that separate the coronal volume into topologically distinct parts. For the first time, the skeleton of the magnetic field in a three-dimensional numerical magnetohydrodynamic experiment is calculated and carefully analysed, as are the ways in which it bifurcates into different topologies. A change in topology normally changes the number of magnetic reconnection sites. In our experiment, the magnetic field evolves through a total of six distinct topologies. Initially, no magnetic flux joins the two sources. Then, a new type of bifurcation, called a global double-separator bifurcation , takes place. This bifurcation is probably one of the main ways in which new separators are created in the corona (separators are field lines at which three-dimensional reconnection takes place). This is the first of five bifurcations in which the skeleton becomes progressively more complex before simplifying. Surprisingly, for such a simple initial state, at the peak of complexity there are five separators and eight flux domains present.

Four Nd-Fe-B magnets underwent irradiation under 23 MeV electron beam. Nd-Fe-B magnets were magnetized to the technical saturation in the magnetic field of 3.5 T before electron treatment. Two Nd-Fe-B samples (1 and 2) were exposed to the direct electron beam with the energy of 23 MeV. Sample 2 was shielded by tungsten converter. The thickness of the tungsten converter was 4.72 mm. The absorbed dose for the samples was 16 GRad. Sample 3 was subjected to bremsstrahlung of electron irradiation with the energy of 23 MeV. Sample 4 was used as a reference sample for calibration and control measurements. While magnetic flux of sample under direct electron beam of 23 MeV was changed significantly, sample 2 showed the change of magnetic flux to a less degree. Magnetic performance of sample 3 corresponded closely to the initial state.

Quantum speed limits of relativistic charged spin-0 and spin-1 bosons in the background of a homogeneous magnetic field are studied on both commutative and noncommutative planes. We show that, on the commutative plane, the average speeds of wave packets along the radial direction during the interval in which a quantum state is evolving from an initial state to the orthogonal final one can not exceed the speed of light, regardless of the intensities of the magnetic field. However, due to the noncommutativity, the average speeds of the wave packets on noncommutative plane will exceed the speed of light in vacuum provided the intensity of the magnetic field is strong enough. It is a clear signature of violating Lorentz invariance in the relativistic quantum mechanics region.

Abstract We present 2.5D hybrid simulations of the spectral and thermodynamic evolution of an initial state of magnetic field and plasma variables that in many ways represents solar wind fluctuations. In accordance with Helios near-Sun high-speed stream observations, we start with Alfvénic fluctuations along a mean magnetic field in which the fluctuations in the magnitude of the magnetic field are minimized. Since fluctuations in the radial flow speed are the dominant free energy in the observed fluctuations, we include a field-aligned $v_{\|}(k_{\perp })$v∥(k⊥) with an $k^{ -1}$k−1 spectrum of velocity fluctuations to drive the turbulent evolution. The flow rapidly distorts the Alfvénic fluctuations, yielding spectra (determined by spacecraft-like cuts) transverse to the field that become comparable to the $k_{\|}$k∥ fluctuations, as in spacecraft observations. The initial near constancy of the magnetic field is lost during the evolution; we show this also takes place observationally. We find some evolution in the anisotropy of the thermal fluctuations, consistent with expectations based on Helios data. We present 2D spectra of the fluctuations, showing the evolution of the power spectrum and cross-helicity. Despite simplifying assumptions, many aspects of simulations and observations agree. The greatly faster evolution in the simulations is at least in part due to the small scales being simulated, but also to the non-equilibrium initial conditions and the relatively low overall Alfvénicity of the initial fluctuations.

Employing the I-concurrence (Ic) measure, entanglement dynamics of superposition of isospin fermionic coherent states (SFCS) in Heisenberg spin chains of Ising, XX, XXX and XXZ models in the presence of Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction and magnetic field is studied. For the above-mentioned models, the entanglement dynamics of SFCSs is independent of magnetic field effect and the DM interaction effect introduces the quantum fluctuations in the entanglement dynamics of the system. It is shown that depending on the choice of the models in the absence of DM interaction, entanglement dynamics alter by applying and increasing the magnetic field to the first (second) part of the system. We showed that by increasing the spin of the fermionic coherent states (j) and, consequently, increasing their dimension d = 2j + 1, the entanglement dynamics of the SFCS states sharply increases and fluctuates at a higher level. Our results indicate no entanglement sudden death phenomenon under the examined conditions.
