Republ. D-s. Wang, China H. Yasuoka, Japan Associate Member 94-97: J. Morkowski Poland ACTIVITIES: Meeting The Magnetism Commission C9 met during the International Magnetism Conference (ICM) at Cairns, Australia in July 1997. All members bar one were present. The commission received the final report on ICM94 (Warsaw), a preliminary report on ICM97, and heard a report on the state of preparations for ICM2000 (Recife). There had been 1150 participants from 47 countries at ICM94, and there were 850 participants at ICM97. The Commission appreciated the particular difficulties that the Australian organizers had had to face, and considered that ICM97 had been a scientific success, in interesting surroundings. The Commission discussed improved procedures for choosing invited speakers at ICM meetings, and the rules concerning the number of publications to be accepted for the proceedings. Advice on a number of other points was given to the organizers of the next conference. The adverse effect of specialist meetings not co-ordinate with ICM was considered a real danger, and there was some discussion as to whether satellites detracted from the excitement of the main conference. The ICM2000 Organizing Committee was strongly advised to maintain close contact with C9 concerning decisions to be made during the run up to the Conference.

The investigation of the mutual influence of the localized 4f electrons and itinerant band electrons represents a challenging task in theoretical as well as experimental physics. Research areas of current interest are the electronic structure as determined from calculations and spectroscopies, the magnetic properties in three- and low-dimensional systems, open questions concerning transport such as spin disorder resistivity, and the influence of structure and morphology. This volume provides an overview of recent results and developments. It will help to identify critical topics which may become the focus of future research activities.

44. Magnetism And Superconductivity of our research is the link between superconductivity and the other main thrust ofthe group, magnetism. We are particularly interested in properties of oxide http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/academic/physics/pandaweb/research/mag_sup.htm

The School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of St Andrews Magnetism and superconductivity Principals: Andy Mackenzie, Steve Lee, Peter Riedi, Jon Armitage and David Tunstall Beyond the independent electron approximation to correlated electrons Fundamental magnetic properties Nanostructured magnetic materials Instrumentation ... Superconductivity Theorist, experimentalist, and high field magnet The behaviour of solid materials in which the "independent electron approximation" breaks down , ie where the motion of any one electron becomes 'correlated' with that of all the others, is the focus of studies in Andy Mackenzie's group. The most fascinating phenomena of condensed matter physics arise in such circumstances. Superconductivity with unconventional symmetries, exotic forms of magnetism, strange metals, correlated insulators and even non-linear optical effects can all be observed. The group is particularly interested in uncovering the unifying themes that underlie such apparently diverse behaviour. With this in mind, it specialises in studying oxides, where a wide range of correlated electron properties can be observed in a restricted set of chemically similar materials.

Magnetism And Magnetotherapy, India, Alternative Medicine, Traditional Healing S The story of magnetism goes back a long way to many centuries before The ancient Egyptianswere also apparently familiar with the properties of magnetic forces http://www.indianvisit.com/ivnew/thecountry/culture/magnetismand.htm

header('../../../'); leftpanel('../../../'); Magnetism And Magnetotherapy MAGNETISM AND ITS INFLUENCE ON THE HUMAN BODY The earth with its magnetic lines of force has a direct impact on the human body. Our body is also invested with magnetism and enveloped in a magnetic filed . The strongest magnetic field is created by the brain while we sleep and sleeping with our head to the north facilitates the easy flow of the earth’s magnetism through our body thus inducing sound sleep. This is the reason why Indian customs dictate that we sleep with the head to the north. Apart from it, the age-old custom of fasting on full moon days can also be similarly explained. During the full moon, our body fluids flow with greater ease and so fasting on these days helps maintain the equilibrium of liquids in the body. We are affected by the dark and bright phases of the moon because every planet, through its magnetism, exercises some influence on other planets. EARLY USE OF MAGNETISM The story of magnetism goes back a long way to many centuries before Christ. The earliest mention of the magnet as a healing agent is in the Atharvaveda , the ancient treatise on medicine and one of the four Vedas . The ancient Egyptians were also apparently familiar with the properties of magnetic forces as they utilized it to preserve mummies. Their legendary queen, Cleopatra, was said to have worn a tiny magnet on her forehead—probably to preserve her charms. Most civilizations, however, invested the magnet with magical powers. They wore magnets as amulets or charms to relieve aches and pains and its healing properties were used unwittingly.

Interface Magnetism Ab-initio Calculations of Magnetic Properties of Surfaces, Interfaces and Multilayers This network is concerned with the application and development of ab-initio techniques to the magnetic properties of surfaces, interfaces and magnetic multilayers. This field has experienced a phenomenal growth over the last five years being stimulated by fascinating new discoveries like interlayer exchange coupling giant magnetoresistance and magnetic dichroism and by the prospect of important technical applications like new magnetic reading heads and magnetic field sensors Due to the enormous progress achieved in the development of density functional theory and efficient numerical techniques, ab-initio calculations of the electronic structure have led to a basic and quantitative understanding of many material properties. No other theoretical approach has such a comparable success. In particular the magnetic properties of transition metals are well described by density functional theory. For surface and multilayer magnetism ab-initio calculations have already led to a basic understanding of interlayer exchange coupling perpendicular magnetisation magnetic X-ray dichroism and giant magnetoresistance . In fact, experiments seriously need theoretical support and often experimental efforts without accompanying theoretical calculations are no longer meaningful.

Return to module Discussion Thread Don't know what a word means? Find out here! Static Electric and Static Magnetic Fields Electrostatic and static magnetic fields (also called DC fields) occur in nature, there they can surprise with enormous intensities. Since those fields do not vibrate at any frequency but are static, we also speak of electrostatics and magnetostatics. In general, these two fields are studied separately. However, both of them describe fields independent of time, that is, stationary or static. Electrostatic Fields Static electricity is produced between electric charges at rest. The force of such a field can be traced back to these electrically charged particles. Like charges repel one another, opposite charges attract one another. In order to generate static electricity, electric charges need to be separated, that is, objects need to become charged. This can be done by rubbing two different materials against each other. Synthetic materials, for example, are especially well suited for this task because they are poor conductors and either part easily with their electrons (becoming positively charged) or steal them from neighboring atoms (becoming negatively charged). This whole affair is helped along by dry air. In the case of thunderstorms, turbulent air masses rub against each other. Thus charges are separated, creating huge electrostatic fields that are neutralized by cataclysmic bursts of lightening. The natural balance of air ionization and a healthy indoor climate can be considerably disturbed by electrostatic phenomena.

Researchers Achieve One Teraflop Performance With Supercomputer Simulation Of Magnetism November 9, 1998 By Jon Bashor, jbashor@lbl.gov BERKELEY A team of scientists from two national laboratories reached a supercomputing milestone this weekend, getting their simulation of metallic magnetism to run at 1.02 Teraflops more than one trillion calculations per second. This success made them finalists for the Gordon Bell Prize, awarded annually to honor the best achievement in high-performance computing. The team, which also includes collaborators at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center and the University of Bristol (UK), are finalists for the prize for their parallel computer simulation of metallic magnetism. "One of the goals of this project is to address critical materials problems on the microstructural scale to better understand the properties of real materials. A major focus of our research is to establish the relationship between technical magnetic properties and microstructure based on fundamental physical principles," said Malcolm Stocks, a scientist in Oak Ridge’s Metals and Ceramics Division and leader of the project. "The capability to design magnetic materials with specific and well-defined properties is an essential component of the nation’s technological future." In May and June of this year, the research team ran successively larger calculations on a series of bigger and more powerful Cray supercomputers. After the simulation code attained a speed of 276 Gflops on the Cray T3E-900 512-processor supercomputer at NERSC, the group arranged for use of an even faster T3E-1200 at Cray Research Inc. and achieved 329 Gflops. They were then given dedicated time on a T3E600 1024-processor machine at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center which allowed them to perform crucial code development work and testing before the final run at 657 Gflops on a T3E1200 1024-processor machine at a U.S. government site.

Next: Computer Science Up: Fundamental Science Previous: Microstructure Magnetism Brief Overview of Spin Dynamics The recently introduced spin dynamics (SD) technique [ ] presents a large evolutionary step in ab initio quantum approaches to the study of magnetic materials. The method is based on modern electronic structure techniques developed within the density functional formalism, but unlike previous spin polarized band structure methods, the magnetic moments change direction and magnitude individually according to basic dynamical equations. Realistic temperature-dependent simulations for large systems of technical interest are now possible [ ]. In analogy with ab initio molecular dynamics, the electronic structure (representing the fast degrees of freedom) is solved for the ground state with the moment orientation angles (corresponding to the nuclear coordinate slow degrees of freedom in MD) frozen in place. The Hellmann-Feynman torques (or forces) derived from the electronic structure govern the equations of motion of the slow degrees of freedom. Similar to MD, a thermal bath can be introduced, and magnetic properties as a function of temperature can be studied. The criterion for the method to work is that the ratio of the inter-atomic exchange parameters (typically a few hundred meV) to the intra-atomic exchange and bandwidth is small, which is satisfied for most strong magnetic materials of interest. By using parallel computers, systems with large numbers of independent atoms can be studied. SD has been successfully implemented on UNIX workstations for Fe systems of up to 72 atoms [

Mark Meldrim, David Sellmyer (Center for Mat. Res. and Anal. and Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, University of Nebraska) Intercluster interactions in Co cluster-assembled materials are investigated. The nanomaterials are deposited by a cluster-deposition technique which has the ability to produce nanocluster ensembles with narrow size distributions and independently varying sizes and concentrations. The experimental peak temperature Tp characterizing the magnetization maximum in the zero-field cooled curves increases with increasing packing fraction and is larger for Cu and Ag matrices than for SiO2 matrices. The experimental behavior is explained in terms of a mean-field interaction model which takes into account both RKKY and magnetostatic interactions. The calculation yields a spin-glass like freezing for both metallic and nonmetallic matrices, although the behavior of Co in SiO2 is slightly different due to the absence of RKKY interactions.

History of Magnetism The Chinese discovered the magnetic compass as early as 200 BC. At first fortune-tellers used it. Later people realised that it was a way to find the direction of North and South. The ancient Greeks knew that the lodestone or magnetite attracted iron towards it. It is known that the Vikings used a lodestone to navigate. Later at the end of the twelfth century Europeans were using this simple compass to aid navigation. During the 16 th century Sir William Gilbert discovered that the properties of the lodestone could be transferred to ordinary pieces of iron by rubbing them with a lodestone. What is a Magnet? The first magnets were made of iron. These days they are: alloy magnets that contain metals such as iron copper cobalt aluminium ceramic magnets that are made from powders called ferrites which contain iron oxide and barium oxide.

Grade 2-3 Physical Science (Magnetism) This sub-organizer contains the following sections: Prescribed Learning Outcomes Suggested Instructional Strategies Suggested Assessment Strategies Recommended Learning Resources PRESCRIBED LEARNING OUTCOMES It is expected that students will: classify materials as magnetic or non-magnetic demonstrate the properties of magnetic attraction and repulsion describe various kinds of magnets and their force fields create a magnet SUGGESTED INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES Context Magnets have useful properties. Through exploration and investigation with a variety of magnets and materials, students discover the properties of magnets. Consideration of magnetic games, compasses, and other applications allows students to realize the importance and usefulness of magnets. Activities Students collect a variety of items, test them to determine if they are attracted to magnets, and record the findings. Students suggest common features of those items attracted to magnets. Using a combination of magnets placed in various orientations to each other, students observe the changes that occur when iron filings are sprinkled on a piece of paper. (This may be done on an overhead projector and a transparency may be used instead of paper.) This activity shows students that magnetic fields can bend.
