Full textA Coulomb gas or fluid comprises charged particles that interact via the Coulomb interaction. Examples of a Coulombic systems include simple and complex electrolytes together with magnetic monopoles in spin ice. The long-range nature of the Coulomb interaction leads to a rich array of phenomena.This thesis is devoted to the study of the non-equilibrium behaviour of lattice based Coulomb gases and of the quasi-particle excitations in the materials known as spin ice which constitute a Coulomb gas of magnetic charges. At the centre of this study lies the second Wien effect which describes the linear increase in conductivity when an electric field is applied to a weak electrolyte. The conductivity increases due to the generation of additional mobile charges via a field-enhanced dissociation from Coulombically bound pairs.The seminal theory of Onsager gave a detailed analysis of the Wien effect. We use numerical simulations not only to confirm its validity in a lattice Coulomb gas for the first time but mainly to study its extensions due to the role of the ionic atmosphere and field-dependent mobility. The simulations also allow us to observe the microscopic correlations underlying the Wien effect.Finally, we look more closely at the emergent gas of monopoles in spin ice—the magnetolyte. The magnetic behaviour of spin ice reflects the properties of the Coulomb gas contained within. We verify the presence of the Wien effect in model spin ice and in the process predict the non-linear response when exposed to a periodic driving field, or to a field quench using Wien effect theory. We use a straightforward extension of the lattice Coulomb gas simulations to refine our predictions. It is a highly unusual result to find an analytic theory for the non-equilibrium behaviour of a highly frustrated system beyond linear response

Full textThe work exposed in this manuscript covers two distinct topics. The first is about the response of crystalline dielectrics to an external static electric field; it is based on King-Smith, Vanderbilt and Resta modern theory of polarisation. Restricting ourselves to the 1D case, we first describe the Wannier-Stark ladder of a band model with a low-field perturbative approach. We then use this development to derive the thermodynamical response of the band model. We have to modify the usual thermodynamics to account for the unboundedness of the Wannier-Stark spectrum, through the introduction of a local chemical potentiel which ensures local electric neutrality in the crystal. In a last step, we extend our approch to the 2D cas, where new characteristics related to the topic of topological insulators appear.The second topic tackles synchronization and spin-echo in cold atom gases. We study the competition between the spin-echo mechanism and the self-synchronization mechanism which emerges from the identical spin rotation effet (emph{ISRE}). The spin-echo thechnique was built to compensate for some the of dephasing that appears in trapped ultra-cold gases, leading to an increased coherence time for the ensemble. The emph{ISRE} appears in dense atomic clouds where collisions also lead to an increased coherence time. We show that these two mechanism are not always compatible, in particular, their compatibility is based on the relation between the time scales associated to both phenomena

Full textThe proposed project presents a methodology to detect how susceptible or resistant certain bacteria are to an applied antibiotic. This detection is achieved by calculating the area of Zone of Inhibition (ZOI) regions present in the petri dish and comparing the results to the prescribed standards. The ZOI regions are empty areas formed around an antibiotic disc when placed on a petri dish containing a sample of the bacterial culture. Digital image processing techniques are employed to automate the process of ZOI detection. Experimental results show that the proposed project is successful in detecting ZOI regions of various shapes, such as perfectly circular, irregular, and overlapping. The experimental results also show that the accuracy of detection is typically over 95%, and it remains above 90%, even when the image is degraded by additive Gaussian noise.

Full textThe research work presented here contributes to an overall study of the electromagnetic (EM) susceptibility of Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFET's), in a frequency range from 10 MHz to 1 GHz. This device is used for general purpose: analog and digital applications. The main aim of this study is to provide a detailed understanding of the physical mechanisms involved in the device when the Radio-Frequency (RF) interference is superimposed on the gate terminal. Our study focuses on the development of a physical model, based essentially on the charge variations within the electronic device. This approach allows to understand its behavior with and without the RF interference. Indeed, the knowledge of the involved physical mechanisms is the basic understanding of EM susceptibility. When RF interference is superimposed on the MOSFET terminals, various susceptibility effects take place depending on RF power level, frequency and the transistor operation region. Due to the nonlinearity of the MOS current-voltage characteristics, RF excitations cause distorted drain current waveform which leads to a bias point shift. This modification of the average drain current is called rectification effect. So we developed a method to clearly understand the effect induced by the EM interference. This method is based on the measurement of the currents waveforms to all of the transistor access. In fact, these currents waveforms measurements give us information on the charge variations within the electronic device. Moreover, such a measurement provides access to a wide range of current information (average values, distortion, peak values, etc.). Initially, the different currents waveforms measurements were made when a voltage ramp was applied to the device gate with variable rise time in respect to the transistor response time. This allowed us to understand the large signal transient response of the MOSFET. Secondly, we measured the currents waveforms when an EM interference was injected to the gate terminal. In support of these measurements we used two computation tools: analytical and numerical. The analytical method allows prediction and identification of the quantities of the device involved in the modification of transistor's behavior. The numerical method allows electrical simulation to predict the effects of EM aggression. A static and dynamic characterization of the component was also necessary to understand the observed phenomenon and provide data to the electrical model

The healthy brain consumes 20% of total oxygen used by the body under normal conditions. Continuous oxygen delivery to neural tissue is needed to maintain normal brain function and viability. Reliable measurements of brain oxygenation can provide critical information to diagnose and manage diseases in which this oxygen supply is disturbed, including stroke and tumor. In acute stroke, for instance, metabolic biomarkers such as local oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) have been shown to identify tissue at risk of infarction by positron emission tomography. This knowledge can then be used to identify patients who are candidates for reperfusion therapies or to avoid thrombolytic therapy in futile situations. Unfortunately, there is currently no clinically feasible method for radiologists to assess brain oxygenation in patients. My thesis aims to address this need through development of a clinically viable tool to examine regional OEF in the brain with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We have designed a novel imaging and analysis method to quantify oxygenation in cerebral veins. MRI phase images are sensitive to local, oxygenation-dependent magnetic field variations in brain vessels, due to the presence of paramagnetic deoxyhemoglobin molecules in venous blood. Our method was developed on a 3 Tesla MRI scanner and tested in 10 healthy volunteers during hypercapnia, i.e. breathing of low levels of CO₂. This respiratory challenge changes the baseline oxygenation state of the brain, enabling us to test whether our MRI method can detect different levels of OEF in vivo. We also show that OEF is reduced in 23 patients with multiple sclerosis, an autoimmune disease of the central nervous disease, and relates to their performance on cognitive tasks.

Full textThe thesis studies the magnetic coupling in systems of different dimensionality, by using multireference methods. The aim of the work is to determine macroscopic properties such as the thermal dependency of magnetic susceptibility, from the calculated magnetic exchange constant J. This microscopic parameter quantifies the magnetic interaction between two magnetic sites and can be extracted from the experimental susceptibility curve in finite systems. However this extraction is not possible in extended magnetic systems such as chains or 2D-layers. The strategy followed consists in calculating J in small clusters and in simulating the extended systems by introducing the calculated J in the Heisenberg Hamiltonian of 8 to 16 site models. From the spectrum, the thermal dependency of the magnetic susceptibility is the calculated. When compared to the experimental one, this curve gives a quantification of the magnetic interactions of the studied materials at the microscopic level. We have studied different types of extended systems such as chains and hexagonal lattices, where the magnetic sites are transition metal ions.

Full textElectromagnetism, security and electronic warfare have been closely linked for decades. Their association gathers applications of radar surveillance, neutralization of electronic systems or detection of hidden electronics. Today, the multiplication of IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) both in theatres of operation and in urban environments leads to the need for their detection. The works of this thesis can enter into this theme and propose a new alternative that allows to highlight the presence of hidden RF receivers. The nonlinear radar is particularly suitable for detecting devices containing metals and (electronic) semiconductors. A popular technique is to transmit a single frequency f1 and receive the second harmonic generated by the target. Another less common technique consists of transmitting two frequencies, f1 and f2, and receiving intermodulation products of order 3 (2f1 - f2 and 2f2 - f1). An in-depth state of the art of nonlinear radar systems is made in a first chapter with a comparison of their characteristics. In a second chapter, an inductive test bench is developed to measure the reflected IM3 of an RF target. Thus analyses and orders of magnitude will be known helping the development of radar. In chapter 3, the IM3 radar demonstrator is developed. A wide range of RF systems, commercial and non-commercial, that may be found in operational environments are being tested. Their detection will validate the IM3 recovery technique. A new realistic IM3 radar link budget is implemented to estimate the actual radar detection range for different RF targets. In the last chapter the work focuses on the identification and classification of an RF target. The study focuses on the possibility of extracting all parameters to assist in a classification (hazard assessment) of RF receptors in an operational environment. The research work presented in this manuscript contributes to the improvement of hidden electronic detection techniques. A detection protocol was proposed describing the actions of the IM3 radar. It includes a frequency scan and then a power scan. The first tests were carried out on a walkie-talkie demonstrating the possibility of detecting its bandwidth via IM3 retransmission, at more than 2 m. The repeatability of the tests on an extended panel of RF receivers validates the detection protocol and the interest of the IM3 radar. An IM3 radar transmission power of 40 dBm, at an IM3 frequency of 400 MHz, can potentially detect a receiver at 80 m. Finally in a final exploratory work, we demonstrated that by observing the IM3 response reflected following a power scan the IM3 radar can add new identification criteria that discriminate the hidden receivers detected between them

Title as it appears in MIT Commencement Exercises program, June 5, 2015: Improved accuracy in susceptibility-based MRI oxygenation measurements by mitigation of partial-volume effects via combined magnitude and phase reconstruction. Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references.
Regional quantitative Oxygen Extraction Fraction (OEF) values can only be reliable obtained from blood vessels larger than the acquisition voxel size. Blood vessels beyond this limit produce unreliable measurements due to partial-volume effects. We demonstrate a method for obtaining more reliable OEF measurements beyond this limit by performing a joint reconstruction using both the magnitude and phase of the complex-valued MRI signal. This method is validated both in numerical simulations and on in vivo data. The ability to perform high-quality fetal brain imaging is hampered by motion of the fetus, which can severely degrade image quality. Previously, low-resolution volumetric navigator (vNav) acquisitions have been shown to accurately track motion in human adults and prospectively correct for it. Here, a technique for using vNavs to measure fetal head motion in utero is developed and validated on in vivo data. Parallel Transmission (pTx) improves image quality and patient safety in high-field MRI. Unlike in single-channel MR excitation, an array of multiple excitation coils is used in pTx. However, coupling between these independent coils significantly degrades the power efficiency of the pTx array. Previously, it a decoupling matrix was proposed to solve this inefficiency. In this work, a physical realization of a 4-channel decoupling matrix was constructed and tested.

Full textIn the frame of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC), the knowledge of EM immunity or susceptibility levels of on-board equipment is an important parameter to control and manage throughout the whole life of equipment. In fact, during maintenance phases of this equipment, it is important to ensure that these levels are maintained in order to guarantee its operation. To meet this need, this thesis proposes to focus on a novel and easy-to-implement experimental method for a quick diagnosis of equipment EM radiated susceptibility at high frequency.. This method is based on the observation of the harmonic frequencies radiated by an equipment device when this one is summited to a perfectly monochromatic illumination at high frequency. We make the hypothesis that the amplitude of those frequencies increases when the electronic equipment is in a dysfunction state. For this, a experimental method suitable for MSRCs has first been developed and studied to highlight the principle of this method. Then, having observed experimentally the radiation phenomenon of harmonic frequencies on several configurations of electronic cards, we have developed a 3D FDTD model to simulate the phenomenon. With this model, a modeling of the experiments was carried out and comparisons between measurements and calculations were performed. Calculation results coming from FDTD Maxwell’s equation models showed trends and functional behaviors identical to those observed in measurements which demonstrated that the proposed control method was fully viable. Regarding the modeling phase, we concentrated on models describing the operation of the logic circuit but we did not to enter into the physical description of each electronic component. Our selected applications have therefore focused on the inclusion in the Maxwell FDTD model of a digital signal represented as a series of bits, as well as the introduction of some components such as a diode and a CMOS inverter. The generalization of the proposed inverter model can be easily extended to other CMOS components such as the SRAM memories we studied in experimental tests

Full textRare-earth (RE) compounds have been an attractive subject, based on the unique electronic structures of the rare-earth elements. In particular, the RETX (RE = rare-earth, T = 3d/4d/5d, transition metals, and X = p – block elements) series is a large family of intermetallic compounds which crystallizes in different crystal structure depending on the constituents. Most of these compounds crystalize in the hexagonal, orthorhombic, and tetragonal crystal structure. On the other hand, the family of compounds RET2X2 adopted the tetragonal crystal structure of the ThCr2Si2 or the CaBe2Be2 with different space groups. Owing to the different crystal structure, these compounds show versatile magnetic and electrical properties such as Kondo effect, complex magnetic behaviour, valence fluctuation, unconventional and conventional superconductivity, heavy fermion behaviour, Fermi and non – Fermi liquid behaviour, metamagnetism, spin – glass, memory effect, crystal electric field (CEF), magnetoresistance and magnetocaloric effect. The history of magnetism reveals that it is closely related to practical applications and magnetic materials from the most vital components in many applications. These are memory devices, permanent magnets, transformer cores, magneto-mechanical devices and magneto-electronic devices. Recent additions to this list include magnetic refrigeration through the studies of magnetocaloric effect as well as spintronics. Magnetic refrigeration (MR) is an emerging technology and shows real potential to enter conventional markets and the principles of MR obeys the magnetocaloric effect (MCE), which is based on the effect caused by a magnetic field on the materials that accept the property of varying the magnetic entropy, as well as its temperature when varying the magnetic field. In this thesis, we report giant magnetocaloric effect and magnetic properties of NdPd2Al2 and RECuGa (RE = Nd, Dy, and Ho) compounds. These investigations were done through measurements of X – ray diffraction (XRD), magnetic susceptibility, ((T)), magnetization, (M(H)), isothermal magnetization, (M(H, T)), heat capacity, (Cp(T)) and electrical resistivity, ((T)). MCE has been studied from the isothermal magnetization and heat capacity measurements.The first chapter of the thesis describes the theoretical background from which the experimental results have been analyzed and interpreted. This is followed by the chapter which presents experimental details and methodology carried out in this thesis. Chapter three presents the results and discussion of the transport, magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of NdPd2Al2 compounds. XRD studies confirm the tetragonal CaBe2Ge2 – type structure with space group P4/nmm (No. 129). The results of (T), (T) and Cp(T) indicate a putative antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase transition at low temperature at, TN = 3 K. On the other hand, (T) data at high temperatures follow the Curie – Weiss relationship giving an effective magnetic moment close to that expected for the trivalent Nd3+ ion. The magnetization results indicate metamagnetic – like transition at a low field that bears a first-order character which corroborates with the Below – Arrott plots. Giant MCE was obtained for the NdPd2Al2 compound similar to those reported for potential magnetic refrigerant materials. Chapter four discusses the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of the series of compounds RECuGa where RE = Nd, Dy, and Ho. XRD studies indicate the orthorhombic CeCu2 – type crystal structure with space group Imma (No. 74) for all three compounds. Magnetic measurements indicate a putative AFM phase transition below 𝑇𝑁 = 7.1, 8.5, and 3.7 K for Nd, Dy, and Ho compounds, respectively. The high-temperature (T) data for all three compounds follow the Curie – Weiss relationship giving an effective magnetic moment close to that expected for the trivalent rare-earth ion. Again, large MCE were obtained for all three compounds similar to those reported for materials that can be used as magnetic refrigerant materials.

Full textThe Araçuaí belt was formed by the collision between South American and African protocontinents during the Neoproterozoic. Its eastern part consists of an extensive migmatitic area (~300 km long x 50-100 km wide) where crop out anatexites and leucogranites (Carlos Chagas unit), migmatitic kinzigites and granulites that probably are the record of a widespread partial melting of the middle to lower crust. Field observations associated with microstructural evidences indicate that the deformation occurred when the rocks were incompletely solidified. Synkinematic temperature estimates realized using the TitaniQ (titaniun-in-quartz) geotermomether suggest that the minimum temperature for the quartz crystallization is ~750°C. Such temperatures combined with bulk rock composition of leucosome in the anatexites suggest that the viscosity of crustal rocks was dropped to at least 108 Pa s. Low viscosity values associated with field and microstructural evidences are consistent with the generation of at least 30% volume of melt during the orogeny. The presence of large volumes of melt promotes a drastic weakening of the mechanical strength of rocks and suggests that the anatectic crust of the eastern Araçuaí belt represents an analogue of present day hot orogen such the Himalayas. Detailed mineralogy investigation permitted to characterize the paramagnetic behaviour of the anatexites and the ferromagnetic behaviour of the granulites. Crystallographic preferred orientation (CPO) measurements using the EBSD (Electron Backscatter Diffraction) technique reveal that the magnetic foliation results from the preferred orientation of the biotite [001] oriented normal to the flow plane. However, given the feeble linear anisotropy of this mineral, only a subsidiary contribution of its subfabric to the origin of the magnetic lineation (k1) was observed. Correspondence between [001] of feldspars and k1 is due to the CPO of small inclusions of ilmenite that mimic the CPO of their host minerals. Correlation between k1 of the Anisotropy of Anhysteretic Remanent Magnetization (AARM) and k1 of the Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) demonstrate that, at the specimen scale, the magnetic lineation has a contribution of the anisotropy of the ferromagnetic minerals. AMS measurements realized to recover the mineral fabric and investigate the migmatitic flow field revealed a complex strain pattern in which, considering the lineation trends, especially, it is possible to characterize three structural sectors. The north region (structural sector 1) with foliations dominantly sub-horizontal and lineation trending NW-SE is interpreted as a region of tectonic escape that may represent a horizontal channel flow. This oblique tectonic escape probably results from gravity forces (gravity-driven flow). The Southern region (structural sectors 2 and 3) with variable trending foliations (NE-SW, E-W and NW-SE) and lineation plunging to North and West, probably reflect a flow regime dominantly influenced by the E-W convergence of the African and South-American continents (collision-driven flow). Altogether, the characteristics of the various domains suggest that the deformation of the partially molten middle crust of the Araçuaí belt was the result of the combination of gravity forces due to the topographic load and tectonic forces due to the convergence between the African and South-American continents.

Full textGiven the constant pressure exerted over coastal environments by different human activities, in addition to the need for more knowledge concerning environmental issues, particularly with respect to greenhouse gases generation in marine sediments have generated an increasing demand for more information regarding the generation, accumulation and seepage of these gases. Faced with this challenge, there is a necessity to develop new applications to geophysical tools that provide more information than merely the acoustic properties of the medium. This work aims to the evaluation of the geoelectric method in stratigraphic mapping and the detection of geoelectric features of shallow gas. For that purpose, geoelectric sections acquired in the ria of Saco do Mamanguá and Paraty-Mirim were compared with high resolution seismic profiles and resistivity measurements in sediment samples. Presence of gas bubbles inside the sedimentary matrix was simulated and resistivity variation analyzed against the decrease of interstitial water salinity. It was observed that a bubble volume of 0.20% of the total volume is sufficient to increase the resistivity by a factor of 1.8. It was also confirmed that the sample resistivity is dependent on interstitial water resistivity. Magnetic susceptibility measurements showed that resistivity variation is not due to mineralogical variations. The geoelectric sections showed good correlation with the seismic profiles up to 9 m depth from the water surface, where occurs a geoelectric layer of resistivity <0.35 Ohm.m. At this depth, it is observed an interface between resistivity layers possibly caused by a change in water or organic matter content. This interface matches the top of the acoustic turbidity produced by shallow gas occurrences.

The increase in the number of fungal infections by Candida species, as a result of the significant increase of immunocompromised patients emphasizes the importance of studies associated to this genre. The resistance of these strains to antifungal drugs is observe in specific isolates, as well as infections associated with biofilm formation (BF). The aim of this study was to compare the susceptibility profile of sessile and planktonic cells of different Candida isolates, differentiating species by multiplex qPCR and scanning electron microscopy. The sample consisted of 10 C. albicans, 10 C. parapsilosis and 1 C. tropicalis. The genetic material was extracted by phenolchloroform extraction of the sample C. tropicalis, ATCC 28367 (C. albicans) and ATCC 22019 (C. parapsilosis) for use in a species-specific multiplex qPCR assay with analysis of differences in the curve fusion. Microdilution plate test and reduction of the tetrazolium salt for 21 isolates were performed for the susceptibility of sessile and free cells, respectively. The evaluation of the ultrastructure of the biofilm was performed on strips of polyurethane with visualization by scanning electron microscopy. The amplified products from C. albicans obtained three melting peaks with values of 75,2 °C, 76,8 °C and 79,8 °C, while C. tropicalis and C. parapsilosis showed one peak with values 73,5 °C and 78,5 °C, respectively. The identification test showed to be reliable for the identification of the most common species in the study. All of Candida yeasts were able to form biofilm with own organization of each specie. The in vitro susceptibility test of planktonic cells demonstrated that amphotericin B and caspofungin showed better activity compared to fluconazole and voriconazole who obtained 19% of resistant strains, all C. albicans. In assessing of the CIMs50% and CIMs80% of sessile cells, we observed an increase of at least 60 times the values of planktonic cells. It was observed a high percentage of BF that demonstrates the need for diagnosis and combat against this biomass formed by Candida species. The BF is a virulence factor determinant for decrease of susceptibility to antifungal agents thus compromising antifungal therapy.
O aumento no número de infecções fúngicas por espécies de Candida, como resultado do expressivo aumento de pacientes imunocomprometidos destaca a importância de estudos relacionados a esse gênero. A resistência destas leveduras aos fármacos antifúngicos é observada em isolados específicos, assim como em infecções associadas com a formação de biofilme (FB). O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar o perfil de suscetibilidade in vitro de células sésseis e planctônicas de diferentes isolados de Candida, diferenciando as espécies por qPCR multiplex e microscopia eletrônica de varredura. A amostra foi composta de 10 C. albicans, 10 C. parapsilosis e 1 C. tropicalis. O material genético foi extraído pelo método de extração fenol-clorofórmio da amostra de C. tropicalis, ATCC 28367 (C. albicans) e ATCC 22019 (C. parapsilosis) para utilização no ensaio espécie-específico qPCR multiplex com avaliação das diferenças na curva de fusão. Foram realizados teste de microdiluição em placa e redução do sal tetrazólio para 21 isolados a fim de determinar a suscetibilidade de células livres e sésseis, respectivamente. A avaliação da ultraestrutura do biofilme foi realizada em tiras de poliuretano com visualização por microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Os produtos amplificados de C. albicans, obtiveram três picos de fusão com valores de 75,2°C, 76,8°C e 79,8°C, enquanto C. parapsilosis e C. tropicalis mostraram um pico de valores 73,5°C e 78,5°C, respectivamente. O teste de identificação apresentou-se confiável para a identificação das espécies mais comuns no estudo. Todas as leveduras de Candida foram capazes de formar biofilme com organização própria de cada espécie. O teste de suscetibilidade in vitro das células planctônicas demonstrou que anfotericina B e caspofungina apresentaram melhor atividade em comparação com o fluconazol e voriconazol que obtiveram 19% das amostras resistentes, sendo todas C. albicans. Na avaliação da CIMs50% e CIMs80% das células sésseis, observou-se um aumento de pelo menos 60 vezes dos valores das células planctônicas. Foi observada porcentagem elevada de FB que demonstra a necessidade do diagnóstico e combate à essa biomassa formada pelas espécies de Candida, pois é um fator de virulência determinante para a diminuição da suscetibilidade aos antifúngicos comprometendo assim a terapêutica antifúngica.

Full textThe investigation of heavy-fermion systems marks an important subject in the research field of solid state physics. The behaviour of heavy-fermion systems is dominated by the strong correlations of the magnetic moments of the unpaired f-electron spins. At low temperatures, experimentally accessible variables are strongly enhanced so that these systems are especially suited to analyse ground state properties. The central topic of this thesis is the investigation of two intermetallic rare-earth compounds with regard to quantum phase transitions. The latter occur at zero temperature as a function of parameters such as magnetic field, pressure or chemical substitution. They are traceable at finite temperature due to deviations of physical variables from the theory of Fermi liquids established by L. D. Landau. For this purpose, low-temperature experiments were performed down to 20mK and in magnetic fields up to 18T. Electrical resistivity, magnetic ac susceptibility, magnetostriction and thermal expansion were measured
