Hello,
My name is Radu Jubleanu, I am PhD student at the Politehnica University of Bucharest. I work in the field of magnetic storage in superconductors, I studied some works related with superconductors , and I have a confusion related to the magnetic anisotropy of them.
More precisely, I would like a clarification, related to parallel and perpendicular magnetic fields. I saw that there are Jc curves as a function of B. But it is not clear to me who is B. Who produces this external magnetic field?
Thank you!
Relevant answer
Answer
The magnetic field is varied using solenoid or Helmholtz coils. The external magnetic field is produced by the instrument used for measurement (SQUID, VSM)

I have received as a comment expressing recent research that: Of course this is 100% correct because energy is the universal electric field and every quantum of energy generates a corresponding vector within the magnetic field (and visa versa). Moreover, vectors act instantaneous because vectors are 1 dimensional (vectors are not bound to the speed of light).
One may have a long re-bar (roughened metal bar used to reinforce concrete) and would find that a hammer tap on the end results in a propagating wave that eventually reaches the other end. A strong blow with a sledge hammer would produce that result plus a longitudinal motion of the entire bar that would affect anything in contact with the far end much sooner, almost instantaneously because the bar would move as a whole.
Are electric field vectors stiff in the latter sense of the re-bar's motion as is implied by "instantaneous" in the above comment?
Cited research as well as opinion might get an old guy up to speed on this since he'll never get it all read. Note, this is not about an EM wave propagating in accord with theories treating that phenomenon. The speed of light must not be allowed to confuse this new awareness of recent research. lfh 3-13-23

Answer
Electrmagnetic fields are sources of gravitational fields, a perfectly well understood consequence of Einstein’s equations. It’s just that there’s nothing particular about the electrooagnetic field as such, since it’s just the energy and momentum of the field that matter. It would be a good idea to study general relativity from a textbook, rather than from books for the general public. And not yo worry too much about any supposed ``end of physics laws", which doesn’t mean anything.
Quantum electrodynamics has been understood since the end of the 1940s-this hasn’t led to the end of interest in condensed matter physics, just the opposite; as in the discovery of new phenomena in this field.

I'm using COMSOL Multiphysics Magnetic field interface to modeling 3 phase power reactor. According to COMSOL Manual reference the best preconditioner for iterative solver in magnetic field is geometric multigrid (GMG) where in coarse solver configured with Auxiliary-Space Maxwell (AMS). Whereas, AMS is not support complex number and each phase has 120 degrees phase difference with each other (for ex. current in phase B= Irms*exp(j*2*pi/3)). Also, I have tried direct solver instead of AMS and solution not converged. Does any one know how to configure the GMG preconditioner or any solution for get true results?

Question

Stern-Gerlach experiment is often seen as idealization of measurement. Using strong magnetic field, it makes magnetic dipoles (of e.g. atoms) align in parallel or anti-parallel way. Additionally, gradient of magnetic field bends trajectories depending on this choice.
Magnetic dipoles in magnetic field undergo e.g. Larmor precession ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larmor_precession ) due to τ=μ×B torque, unless μ×B=0 what means parallel or anti-parallel alignment.
Precession means magnetic dipole becomes kind of antenna, should radiate this additional kinetic energy. Thanks to duality between electric and magnetic field ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duality_(electricity_and_magnetism) ), we can use the attached formula for precessing electric dipole, e.g. from http://www.phys.boun.edu.tr/%7Esevgena/p202/docs/Electric%20dipole%20radiation.pdf .
Using which I get power like 10^−3W, suggesting radiation of atomic scale energies (∼10^−18J) in e.g. femtoseconds (to μ×B=0 parallel or anti-parallel).
So can we see spin alignment in Stern-Gerlach as a result of EM radiation of precessing magnetic dipole?
Beside photons, can we interpret other spin measurement experiments this way?
Relevant answer
Answer
I was suggested very nice article: "Phenomenological theory of the Stern-Gerlach experimen" by Sergey A. Rashkovskiy with very detailed calculations - getting ∼10−10s times for such alignment of atoms in Stern-Gerlach: https://www.preprints.org/manuscript/202210.0478/v1
Calculations are straightforward from equation (3) there for magnetic dipole in external magnetic field.
My very approximated evaluation from radiation of abundant energy suggested a few orders of magnitude fasted alignment - bringing very interesting question if they are equivalent, how does energy balance looks above (?)
Anyway, this is another confirmation that classical magnetic dipoles in external magnetic field have tendency to align in parallel or anti-parallel way.
This "classical measurement" is deterministic and time-reversible: if recreating reversed EM, in theory one could reverse the process ...
What is nonintuive here is that such EM radiation carrying energy difference here seems different than in "optical photon", might be delocalized (?).
The big question is the minimal size to be able to apply this "classical measurement" - minimal size of such magnet: a million atoms? Thousand atoms? Single atoms? Electron?
Experimentally in Stern-Gerlach they observe the same conclusion, such alignment is also well known for electrons (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokolov%E2%80%93Ternov_effect ), for which they observe both Larmor precession, but also much more complex acrobatics in EM field: spin echo ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_paramagnetic_resonance#Pulsed_electron_paramagnetic_resonance )
So where is the classcial-quantum boundary here?
I don't see it, nor need for "unitary evolution - hocus pocus/measurement/abracadabra - unitary evolution" ...

Apropos the Meissner Effect : how is a totally still magnetic field expelled from the interior of a superconducting body, when it is cooled below the transition temperature? From whence do the supercurrent elements obtain their impulse ; how can they suddenly become screening currents, without a cause?
Conversely, it is quite understandable that bringing a superconducting body into a magnetic field-- in this case the supercurrent elements obtain their impulse from a changing magnetic field, via the Lenz-Faraday Law. But in the above case, the magnetic field is absolutely still, and so cannot possibly provide the mechanism to set up surface screening currents.
Relevant answer
Answer
An other explanation. Cooper pairs randomly drift through the crystal with a non-zero kinetic energy. When the motion of Cooper pairs is non-dissipative, then the disordered drifts can align via the Lorentz force to minimize the magnetic energy in the interior. So the magnetic energy is expelled from the bulk without changing the kinetic energy of electron pairs and the total free energy of the crystal decreases.

In doped multiferroic composites of BTO-CFO, i observed increase in dielectric constant by the application of magnetic field. However, in some cases, a decrease in dielectric constant was observed by applying magnetic field. Which factors may be responsible for such behavior?
Relevant answer
Answer
I am replying to this question as my working research field in same,
In the case of magnetodielectric(MD) it is true that some composite shows increased MD i.e. positive MD effect some shows negative magnetodielectric effect. The MD effect depends on a numbers of factors such as type interphase coupling between the phases in the composite materials, microstructures of the two phases, inter-diffusion effect at the interfaces, conductivity differences of the two phases, change of conductivity with magnetic field, presents of defects porosity, magnitudes of local fields etc.
Depending on the above mentioned parameters , the dielectric response or the permittivity of the composite material should have to be analyzed by applying a magnetic fields.
So, depending upon the nature of permittivity change occurring in the composite material negative or positive MD effect can be predicted.

Answer
James E Hanson Hi Professor, I have tried using permanent magnets the issue is with PM is that the field intensity is non uniform and it tends to pull the powders out of the matrix. I find that most people in literature for magnetorheological elastomers tend to use electromagnets but I am unsure how they are able to cure their polymer matrix as the uniform fields even in electromagnets is within a very small region and it doesn't seem like it could accommodate anything to apply heat for curing to occur. Furthermore they test these smart composites using DMA or rheometers again for which they would need to apply magnetic field over a considerable area to measure change in the young's modulus of the smart composite. I have read about a PEM-1022LS magnetic system in some of the literature but could not find any info on what this system is online any chance you have heard of this?

Temperature in umbra region is less compared to penumbra is it because of magnetic field or something else
Relevant answer
Answer
Dear Jothsana: both previous answers are correct. But take into account that there is a magnetohydrodinamic effect for that: magnetic fields are associated with a "magnetic pressure" that complements "thermodynamical pressure" in the solar plasma up to the value of the environment pressure of equilibrium. So, where there is a magnetic field the thermodinamical pressure is lower, and the temperature diminishes (ideal gases law); as a result of the lower temperature the emission of blackbody radiation also diminishes.

I have issues with the 1D ligation protocol of the MinION sequencer when handling high molecular weight DNA (>50kb). There are several cleaning steps with AmpureXP beads and the DNA is so viscous that I can't properly recover the DNA (low recovery and substantial loss of HMW over LMW DNA). Sometimes the DNA clumps when mixed with the beads and most of the times DNA get stuck on the beads (the magnetic field is not strong enough to retain the beads when pipetting the solution). Does anyone have any tip to share please? Thanks in advance.
Relevant answer
Answer
Hi, I just came across your post when doing trouble shooting on my NGS Minion cleanup (using HMW DNA of E. coli for WGS). Let's try if this chat would still be active...
For the clumping, I experienced the same and had a yield of approx. 3-5 ng/ul. Wy too low. So I resuspended the beads in another fraction of nuclease free water, vortexed the sample until resuspended, and then incubated for 5 min at 37 °C. This increased the yield from 3-5 ng/ul to 60-80 ng/ul. The effect of vortexing on DNA fragmentation is of course detrimental, I am still waiting on the sequencing run to see how my N50 will be affected.
Regarding a later cleanup step during barcoding of samples, I usually have a recovery of 50-75% with the Ampure XP beads. Is this within your usually range?
Thanks and best regards.

The high charged currents at the deep of earth exist because of the friction (sliding) between the different layers of earth caused by the planet spin and rotation. This creates moving layers of charges that persist and could be emplified in strength by nuclear phenomena.
The deeper we go in earth the higher is temperature ,thus, the higher is conductivity. So the upper sliding layer will be charged negative and the other positive. furthermore, The negative charged layer is faster in rotation than the positive charged one since the radius of its rotation is bigger.
That means that the we have two opposite magnetic fields but the strongest magnetic field is the one made by the upper layer (Faster charges , Closer to the crust).

When shear is strong enough,switchback and isotropication occurs . In data obtained from PSp encounter-8 ,many many reversal in radial component of magnetic field
Relevant answer
Answer
A switchback is defined not only in terms of the radial component of the magnetic field, B_R. The Sun has magnetic sectors, with magnetic field "away" from or "toward" the Sun, and such magnetic field orientation is carried out with the solar wind. From one of Maxwell's equations, a sudden change in magnetic field B implies a current sheet at the boundary. This is called the heliospheric current sheet (HCS). But a change in B_R due to a changing sector, or an HCS crossing, is *not* termed a switchback. In Parker Solar Probe's 8th encounter, there were several HCS crossings but actually very few switchbacks.
So how can you tell whether B_R is reversing as an HCS crossing or a switchback? Ideally you would use another type of data. Heat flux electrons, a.k.a. suprathermal or strahl electrons in the solar wind, are found to stream away from the Sun along the local B line. So if you see the pitch angle distribution of such electrons *not* changing, which B_R reverses, that is a switchback. Before/after an HCS crossing, the dominant pitch angle would reverse. Similarly, the cross-helicity of magnetic and velocity fluctuations is generally characteristic of outward-moving Alfven modes, so that behaves like the strahl electron pitch angle: it reverses before/after an HCS crossing but not during a switchback. Or a very simple but not physically rigorous way to identify a switchback is as a very temporary reversal of B_R, with the same sign before and after the switchback.
Finally, given that electron strahl and cross helicity are not reversing, many people define a switchback as B_R changing sign. However, a more general definition is rotation of the B vector beyond some angle, with the threshold angle as a variable parameter (see Dudok de Wit et al. 2020).

On the magnetic field and its quantum nature ..
Electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light. Let's think, how can an electric and magnetic attribute travel at the speed of light. The electric and magnetic nature will have to accelerate each other. If the electrical and magnetic nature of the universe is accelerating and reaching the speed of light, what is the main reason for this? Electric current can create a magnetic field. The electrical difference in the universe will cause the magnetic field to differ. But what does this change in the universe indicate? If the electrical nature of a substance changes, its magnetic nature will also change. The electrical quality is directly proportional to the magnetic quality. From here, we also reveal that the electrical change affects the magnetic nature of the material. If the magnetic nature changes, we can say that the natural attraction of that substance to another substance changes. If the electric wave increases, since the magnetic field will increase in a substance, the gravitational attraction of that object to another object will increase. In other words, Dear SIR ISAAC NEWTON (20 MARCH ANNIVERSARY, WITH REGARDS FROM THE WHOLE WORLD OF SCIENCE!) INCREASED GRAVITY OF MATTER MEANS INCREASED MASS OF MATTER IN SPACE TIME. SO MAGNETISM MAKES AN OBJECT TO ITS MASS. CAN I ACTUALLY ASK WATER QUESTIONS? CAN I ACHIEVE THE SPEED OF LIGHT BY MAKING A MAGNETIC VEHICLE? IF WE GO TO THE ESSENTIAL SUBJECT, IF MAGNETISM MAKES AN OBJECT OVER MASS, IT INCREASES GRAVITY. OUR UNIVERSE MAY BE EXPANDING FOR MAGNETISMIC REASONS. SO HOW DO WE EVALUATE MAGNETISM AND ELECTRICITY ACCORDING TO QUANTUM THEORY? Quantum theory means that a particle can be in more than one place at the same time. and atoms (submatter) are conscious. If magnetism increases the mass of a substance above matter, that is, if gravity increases, what happens under matter? and what do we say about quantum theory? Could quantum theory be another form of magnetic property? Because when the magnetic quality increases, we understand that the effect of two objects is in two different places. So let's think about it this way: When quantum theory qualifies as the opposite pole in magnetism and - and the same pole -- it can be as follows: Quantum theory is formed by using the magnetic property. This is how it happens. It is a system that takes two opposite poles and two same poles under its influence at the same time and realizes this. In quantum theory, opposite and same poles of magnetism function at the same time.
Relevant answer
Answer
Yes, magnetism in substances has a quantum nature. This is not so difficult to see in solid-state physics, for a paramagnetic quantum gas where for each atom the magnetic moment m is:
m = e/(2mc) (L + 2 S) with the angular momentum L (that in quantum theory is also quantized) and the spin part S.
Therefore from macroscopic measurements, one can obtain information about the magnetic properties of substances, including the quantum state of the atoms. This is based on the quantum nature of magnetic phenomena, as you pointed out.
The induced effect from the magnetic field occurs in quantum theory due to the uncertainty principle, since it is impossible to say exactly at what point r in space a particle with momentum p is located, therefore the expression for the induced magnetic moment mind for a system of particles is
mind = - e2/(2mc2) Σi ri × A

Question
19 answers
An electron is usually described as being a “point particle”. Collision experiments are interpreted as indicating an electron must be smaller than about 10-18 m. However, this size is incompatible with an electron also having physical angular momentum of ħ/2. An electron would need a radius of about 2 x 10-13 m and be rotating at the speed of light to have ħ/2 physical angular momentum. This conundrum forces physicists to postulate there must be an “intrinsic” form of angular momentum that does not involve rotation. However, the Einstein-de Haas experiment proves that reversing an electron’s spin with a magnetic field imparts physical angular momentum to a ferromagnetic rod. Do you believe there really is an “intrinsic” form of angular momentum that can be converted to physical rotation of an iron rod when an electron’s spin is reversed?
The alternative explanation is that experiments that attempt to measure an electron’s size have been misinterpreted. For example, if an electron’s electric field is considered a fundamental part of the electron’s structure, then it is ridiculous to ignore the fact that an electron’s energy is distributed over a much larger volume than 10-18 m radius. In fact, an electron’s classical radius of 2.8 x 10-15 m is the size where 100% of an electron’s energy would be in its electric field. A sphere with radius of 10-18 m and charge e would have more than 2,000 times too much electric field energy. The solution I have proposed incorporates an electron model that is a rotating quantized wave with a mathematical radius of 3.86 x 10-13m. What is your solution to the electron’s spin problem?

We have seen in our paper, that for a 10 solar mass non-rotating BH, magnetic field strength can reach up to 10^(5 to 6) Gauss close to the horizon. Now, if we notice the observation of EHT, they report for a 10^9 solar mass BH, field strength reaches up to 1-30 Gauss near the horizon. So, is there any specific explanation for how the magnetic flux changes from stellar to supermassive BHs?
Relevant answer
Answer
Samik Mitra Using polarised light measurements around the M87 black hole, the EHT team discovered that the magnetic field strength ranges between 1 and 30 gauss. This amounts to around 50 times the intensity of Earth's magnetic field as measured near the planet's poles, where it is greatest.
Magnetism is caused by the heated gas that surrounds the black hole. The magnetic field is strengthened when the charged gas particles spin. The researchers discovered, however, that not all of the magnetic field simply spins with the spiraling gas.

Dear Shuraik Kader,
Given Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, cosmology regarding the development of the universe, quantum mechanics, future technologies for building interplanetary spacecraft, etc., time travel is theoretically possible. But in practice the building of a time machine by humans is impossible. Even if a man would achieve the required technological development in the next several hundred years, unfortunately he would not have enough time for it. First of all, a person must first solve other global problems, such as the necessary one is urgent, i.e. in the perspective of the next max. 2-3 decades of time, stopping or significantly slowing down the progressing global warming process, achieving zero-emission economy and avoiding a global climate catastrophe, which may occur at the end of the current 21st century. In order for man to be able to create new technologies of the future, to be able to build interplanetary manned spacecraft, etc., he must first save the planet's climate, biosphere and biodiversity from the risk of almost total degradation.

There is a big difference between B and H. B can be in a different direction to H inside a permanent magnet, or any magnetic material which has hysteresis.
In SI units uo is nearly 4 pi e-7, and ur can be from 1 to thousands depending on the material.
I don't know HFSS but you may be able to post-process by multiplying H by the magnetic properties of each material and so get B, which HFSS may plot for you, or give you values you can use.

Hi Thomas Cuff , I have seen quite a number similar patents.
Just like peer-review, the patent system isn't perfect and sometimes something gets patented that shouldn't be. It can be enough to claim a new twist on an old idea (like a magnet around the fuel line and the air supply of the engine, as in your example) and sometimes, maybe, the good people at the patent office just had a bad day. This problem is not limited to implausible claims, sometime ago we were troubled by a competitor's patent even though all the claims in said patent were already described in much older scientific literature...
Patent applications should contain novelties (1) and be non-trivial (2). But generally, neither of these two criteria will lead to an obvious and sharp demarcation.

Answer
You are most welcome Prof. Vivek Kumar Sharma there is one point I did not mention, mostly because I never worked on it, that is fractional statistics in CM.
Bose-Einstein and Fermi Dirac Quantum Statistics govern the 3D microscopic world from subatomic particles to the behavior of matter at room temperature. For example, bosons and fermions exhibit different behaviors: bosons like to stay in the same ground state while fermions stay in different states.
But I forgot to tell you that there is a 3rd quantum statistic for other quasiparticles that have been hypothesized: Anyons (also qubits). They are Fractional Quantum Statistics of quasiparticles in 2D (Wilczek, 1982, *) that have characteristics not seen in bosons or fermions.
If I recall well, they are called anyons because particles may obey any statistics, adopting any quantum phase when exchanging position [*].
Thank you so much for the interesting discussion, I appreciate it. I will try to check what about then in hexagonal 2D structures.

How is it possible to detect a multidomain and a single domain in nanomagnets without using external magnetic field?
Relevant answer
Answer
Of course. Magnetic domains appear to minimize the total energy, which has several contributions: magnetocrystalline energy, magnetostatic energy, etc. When you remove the external magnetic field, only the Zeeman energy goes to zero. As an example, you can find two different multidomain states in this recent paper:
But single domain magnetic states can be observed without any applied magnetic field also. For instance, shape anisotropy can help to stabilize single domain states, you can find many examples in the literature with magnetic nanowires. A curious case is obtained with T-shaped structures, since each branch of the T behaves as a single domain:
Finally, when the dimensions of the nanostructure are smaller than the domain wall width, single domain states can also be obtained at remanence, although if the dimensions are too small they cannot be stabilized (supermaramagnetic state).

The pristine single crystal has also been reported to show Anomalous Hall Effect (), familiar hysteresis loop in the Hall Resistance/Resistivity vs. Magnetic Field plot. But In my case, the loops for various temperatures are found to be shifted downward, entirely in the negative y-region. Is it an artefact?

Have you been able to decompose the measured data into its longitudinal resistance and Hall resistance components? Typically it is pretty hard to measure 1 without having some component of the other. Having a shift in your data may mean that Rxx has changed and moved your loops up or down. If the magnetoresistance is pretty constant across these field regions, it may be the explanation.

My set up is as follows : Elliptically polarized light at input -> Faraday Rotator -> Linear Polarizer (LP) -> Photodiode
The LP is set such that the power output is minimum. I use a lock -in-amplifier to measure the power change due to the Faraday effect. I have a more or less accurate measurement of the magnetic field and the length of the fiber. The experimental Faraday rotation (Rotation Theta= Verdet constant*MagneticField*Length of fiber) , is more than the theoretical prediction, so I was wondering if I am observing the effect of elliptical polarization at the input to the system.
Relevant answer
Answer
Yes, you can say both polarizations get rotated. Taking each component separately, they both would get rotated by the same amount, and superposition applies, so together they do the sum of what each of the pieces would do.
However, if it helps, that is not the only way to think of it. We like to think in terms of linear polarization. We like to think of arbitrary polarization as a superposition of two orthogonal linear polarizations. It’s easy to make the diagrams. It also makes sense for linear polarizers and linear retarders. However, that is not the only choice. You can just as easily express an arbitrary polarization as the superposition of left and right circular polarizations. In the basis of right and left circular polarization a Faraday rotator is in fact a phase retarder. if the two components have equal amplitude the result is linear polarization. The relative phase determines the orientation of the linear polarization, so retarding the phase rotates the linear polarization. If the two components have different amplitude, you get an ellipse where the major and minor axes are the sum and difference of the amplitudes. Again, if you retard the phase, the whole ellipse just rotates.
As to why your experiment is producing answers that don’t quite seem right, I think this measurement has several things that can confuse the result. Although I don’t see why you wouldn’t put a polarizer on the entrance, I doubt the entering ellipticity is really the problem. That should just reduce your modulation amplitude making the signal a little weaker, but it shouldn’t impact the phase. A much more likely culprit is linear birefringence in the fiber. Fibers can have significant residual birefringence from the manufacturing, but also bending through the fiber acts as a retardation. For example, sequential coils of fiber called fiber paddles are sold as polarization manipulators.

If it is just an air-core inductor, than its inductance should not depend on external static magnetic field. If it is a feromagnetic-core inductor, than its core will be deeply saturated with 4 Tesla external static field and so that inefficient. Therefore, you should only use an inductor with an air core.

I ran into a problem when measuring the RF magnetic field with a magnetic probe in a helicon discharge. I measure three field components with coils, using a balanced transformer to filter the capacitive pickup. The probe is located across the axis of the installation on a slide in the diverging field of the expansion volume (about 55 cm distance from discharge camera center). In most cases, the field profiles are not symmetric and do not fit any analytical solution (helicon antenna, m = + - 1). in addition, I found that the z field component changes its amplitude under the same conditions. What could be the reason?

Answer
By changing the amplitude do you mean changing its sign?. There can be an asymmetry in the magnetic field produced by the coil causing such an issue. Try using some Magnetostatic simulation code to map the magnetic field (CST studio, COMSOL,etc). It may give you a better and accurate analysis compared to a simple analytical solution.

Relevant answer
Answer
Dear Shlu,
As shown in 4he attached figure , the charge current flows from left to right through a conductor Hall bar. If the charge current is non-polarized (with equal numbers of spin-up and spin-down electrons), the spin imbalance does not induce a charge imbalance or transverse voltage at the Hall cross. If electrons, which are polarized in the direction of magnetization M, are injected from a ferromagnetic electrode while a circuit drives a charge current (I) to the left, a spin imbalance is created. This produces a spin current (IS) without a charge current to the right of the electrode. Spin–orbit interactions again separate spin-up and spin-down electrons, but now the excess of one spin type leads to a transverse charge imbalance and creates a spin Hall voltage, VSH. As the distance, L, between the electrode and the Hall cross increases, the voltage signal decreases, allowing the decay length of spin currents (spin diffusion length lsf) to be measured. More details about SQHE will be presented in Chapter 9 of my Book, about spin transport in nanostructures.

An electron exhibits wave properties in some experiments and point particle properties in other experiments. This is designated “wave-particle duality”, but these are contradictory words. A wave has a wavelength and has energy distributed over a volume. A point particle has virtually no volume and energy concentrated at a point. Therefore, these contradictory properties cannot be equal parts of a single model. The electron model often associated with the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics is a point particle that achieves an electron’s wave-like probability distribution by discontinuous jumps. This is an example of a particle dominated model that is not fundamentally a wave.
Quantum field theory describes an electron as an “excitation” of the electron field. Such an excitation is sometimes illustrated as a localized wave oscillation on a sea of harmonic oscillators. This model is more wave dominated. The particle properties are achieved by the “collapse of the wave function” to deposit an electron’s properties (spin, charge, momentum, etc.) at a point when the wave-based electron is “observed”.
These are just incomplete examples to encourage discussion. What mental picture do you have of an electron? Does your model also address an electron’s electric/magnetic field that is distributed over a relatively large volume? Is the human intellect capable of conceptually understanding an electron?

Nearly a year ago, I hit upon an idea with which I try to make an analogy between the Coriolis force (F=2mv×Ω,) and the Lorentz force (F=qv×B) due to an induced magnetic field. I see that these forces are generally incapable of doing work since they are perpendicular to the curved path of the particle, and they are both proportional to the velocity of the particle. The only difference is that the Coriolis force acts on any particle regardless of whether it is charged or neutral, whereas the Lorentz force is exerted on charged particles.
I try to design a thought experiment in which the Coriolis force is entirely eliminated by a Lorentz force both acting on a charged particle. Can someone tell me if this idea is plausible or if there are some references regarding this matter?
Relevant answer
Answer
Dr. Javanshiry, The commonality between the Coriolis force and the F = qvxB force is discussed in sections V and VI of this article,
This mainly discusses their common physical origins.
As for setting up a rotating system whereby a Coriolis force would cancel the magnetic force, it would be a matter of getting the correct geometry. I'm not sure though that this would be possible. The Coriolis force is a transverse force in a rotating system, whereas when the magnetic force is causing a charged particle to undergo circular motion, it is a radial force. I'm not sure how we could set up a rotation that would cancel this radial force.
But it's an interesting question.

We know that an electron precesses when placed in an external magnetic field. It precesses with Larmor frequency. Does this precessing electron produce an electric field? If so how does it relate to the Larmor frequency? Any possible relation?
Relevant answer
Answer
Dear Arbab:
At the first, and as you know that Protons and neutrons which are the constituents of atomic nuclei possess the quantum mechanical property of spin which has magnitude and direction. We can imagine these particles as if they were small spinning tops. As a result of spin, the nuclear particles act as small bar magnets. Inside the nucleus, these small magnets associated with the nucleons (protons and neutrons) line up so as to cancel each other's magnetic fields. However, if the number of nucleons is odd, the cancellation is not complete, and the nucleus possesses a net magnetic moment. Therefore, nuclei with an odd number of nucleons behave as tiny magnets. Hydrogen, which has a nucleus consisting of a single proton, does, of course, have a nuclear magnetic moment. The human body is made of mostly water and other hydrogen-containing molecules. Therefore, MRI images of structures within the body can be most effectively produced using the magnetic properties of the hydrogen nucleus. Our discussion will be restricted to the nuclear magnetic properties of hydrogen.
Normally, the little nuclear magnets in bulk material are randomized in space as is shown in Fig.(a) and the material does not possess a net magnetic moment (M=0). The nuclear magnets are represented as small arrows. However, the situation is altered in the presence of an external magnetic field. When an external magnetic field is applied to a material possessing nuclear magnetic moments, the tiny nuclear magnets line up either parallel or antiparallel with the magnetic field as shown in Fig. (b). The direction of the external magnetic field is usually designated as the z-axis. As shown in the figure, the x-y plane is orthogonal to the z-axis. Because the nuclear magnets parallel to the field (+z) have a somewhat lower energy than those that are antiparallel (-z), more of the nuclei are in the parallel state than in the antiparallel state. In an external magnetic field, the assembly of parallel/antiparallel nuclear spins as a whole has a net magnetic moment M that behaves as a magnet pointing in the direction of the magnetic field.
The energy spacing ΔEm between the parallel and antiparallel alignments is
ΔEm=γhB2π
Here B is the externally applied magnetic field, h is the Planck constant as defined earlier, and γ is called gyromagnetic ratio which is a property of a given nucleus. Typically the strength of magnetic fields used in MRI is about 2 tesla (T). (By comparison, the strength of the magnetic field of the Earth is on the order of 10-4T.)
The discrete energy spacing ΔEm, between the two state makes this a resonant system. The frequency corresponding to the energy difference between the two states is called the Larmor frequency and is given by
fL=ΔEmh=γB2π
The gyromagnetic ratio γ for a proton is 2.68×108T-1sec-1. Magnetic fields used in MRI are typically in the range 1 to 4 T. The corresponding Larmor frequencies are about 43 to 170 MHz. These frequencies are in the radio frequency (RF) range, which are much lower than X-rays and do not disrupt living tissue.
If by some means the magnetic moment is displaced from the field, it will precess (rotate) around the field as a spinning top precesses in the gravitational field of the Earth. The frequency of precession is the Larmor frequency. The displacement of the magnetic moment is due to a reversal of alignment for some of the individual nuclear magnetic moments from parallel to antiparallel alignment. A displacement of 90° corresponds to equalizing the population of the spin up and spin down states. To reverse the alignment of antiparallel spins requires energy which must be supplied by an external source.

Hello community!
I want to ask a question that might be pretty silly to some of you. In the magnetic induction equation, when we consider the external magnetic field, do we have to consider the magnetization of the medium too?
Let's suppose we have a liquid film at rest with an external transversal magnetic flux B0. The liquid will be magnetized, creating a magnetic flux B1 that will be proportional to the external one.
Let's assume that the liquid film starts to move. The relative motion of the liquid, which is assumed to be a ferromagnetic material, with respect to the external magnetic field will engender an induced current density field in the medium. In turn, the current will generate its own magnetic field. The creation of this secondary induced magnetic field b is generally described by the magnetic induction equation. In this equation, the unknown function B is assumed to be given by the sum of the external field B0 and the induced one b.
In the literature, people are not considering the magnetization field B1 in the magnetic induction equation. In my opinion, this is not a generally valid assumption, because it does not account for the penetration of the external magnetic field in the medium due to the magnetization. Moreover, for some materials, the magnetic flux field inside the medium would be even higher than the external one.
From a more physical perspective, the velocity field inside the liquid enters in contact with the magnetic field inside the medium, the one given by the external one multiplied by a constant factor given by the permeability of the material.
Relevant answer
Answer
Thomas Breuer
The liquid is not an ionized material. It is assumed to be molten metal. The current is generated in accordance with the Maxwell–Faraday equation, even though the magnetic flux field is stationary the ferromagnetic medium is moving with respect to it.
The point which is puzzling me is that in the steady-state conditions the magnetic flux field inside the liquid would be proportional to the external one thanks to the appearance of a magnetization field, with a proportionality constant that depends on both the material and geometry properties of the medium. Now if we consider an unsteady condition, where the liquid is moving, there will be also an induced magnetic flux field b. This field is generally calculated with the magnetic diffusion equation, assuming the magnetic flux is given by the sum of the external field and the induced one. I do not understand because we do not consider the magnetic field inside the liquid due to the magnetization.

Dear Parisa Maleki,
The energy of the magnetic system is dependent on the temperature of the cavity and the interaction with the applied field.
The magnetic energy of a single dipole is -μ.Β. So, if there are N total number of dipoles and n number of dipoles are oriented along the field, then the magnetic energy of the system is n( -μΒ) + ( N-n)( μB).
The value of n depends on temperature.

As I am stirring my medium with a magnetic stirrer, I was wondering whether such effect would apply to my system. But I am not sure about the strength and direction of the magnetic field generated by the magnetic induction stirrer. Is it ≥ 1 Tesla? And what is its direction?
Thanks

Answer
The discussed equipment is ordinary magnetic stirrer for liquids in which a magnetic piece rotates due to the magnetic field of another. The rotation of the latter is controlled electrically. For electrically operated small magnetic stirrer the field would be ~ 1kG but not ~1T.
Since the medium is field sensitive, it is desirable to measure the magnetic field by a guass-meter.

I was looking for some sources (if available), which contain information about geomagnetic events, ICMEs, Flares, SEPs during the different encounters by Parker Solar Probe (PSP). I am working on the analysis of abrupt fluctuation in solar wind parameters during the encounters by PSP. I would really appreciate your suggestions. :)

I want to know how solar wind from a sun ( towards the earth) vary over a distance, specially during solar minimum period. Can you suggest some any related articles?

Answer
Try E.N. Parker's work (he first delineated the solar wind). I also suggest you go onto the NASA site for the Parker Probe and try looking up recommended papers that might answer your questions in their latest manifestations - and related sites from other solar probes that have been doing work on these matters over the last few years (there are several). And, good luck.

People use this book in the US:
Russell, C. T., Luhmann, J. G., & Strangeway, R. J. (2016). Space physics: An introduction. Cambridge, United Kingdom: Cambridge University Press.
This is the version I used when I was in graduate school:
Kivelson, M. G., & Russell, C. T. (1996). Introduction to Space Physics. Cambridge, MA: Cambridge University Press.
In Europe, I guess people use ore this one:
Baumjohann, W., & Treumann, R. (2009). Basic Space Plasma Physics. London, United Kingdom: Imperial College Press.
This AGU monograph has lots of references and a modern view of the solar wind:
As for historical enrichment, I would recommend the articles of Eugene Parker (1950's, 1960;s, ApJ) and the ones with the first observations of the solar wind by Mariner II:
Hope this helps :)
