Abstract:
Magnetism in carbon nanostructures is a rapidly expanding field of current materials science. Its progress is driven by the wide range of applications for magnetic carbon nanosystems, including transmission elements in spintronics, building blocks of cutting-edge nanobiotechnology, and qubits in quantum computing. These systems also provide novel paradigms for basic phenomena of quantum physics, and are thus of great interest for fundamental research. This comprehensive survey emphasizes both the fundamental nature of the field, and its groundbreaking nanotechnological applications, providing

Abstract:
Six thunderstorms that occurred at the NASA Kennedy Space Center, Florida, have been studied in an attempt to characterize their electrical structure and electrification. Ground-based measurements of the cloud electric fields, the locations of lightning VHF radio sources, cloud-to-ground lightning strike points, and dual-polarization radar data were used in this study. Changes in the electric field due to lightning were used to determine the locations and magnitudes of changes in cloud charge. The fields themselves were used to compute displacement current densities following lightning flashes

Abstract:
Lightning, a familiar phenomenon on Earth, may also occur at other times and locations in our solar system. It has been suggested as a mechanism for forming chondrules, millimeter-sized beads of glassy silicate found in primitive meteorites formed in the early solar system 4.5 billion years ago. It has also been detected in Voyager images of Jupiter, and there is evidence that it may occur on other planets as well, including Venus, Saturn and Neptune. The mechanism believed to produce lightning discharges on Earth, and possibly other planets, is charge production by collisions of ice particles

The magnetic properties of the nanoparticles were then studied via the vibrating sample magnetometer and subsequently compared with similar experiments in the nanomagnetism literature.

Nous avons comparé deux méthodes d'élargissement de bande passante sans perte de RSB : une contre-réaction et un couplage inductif de la détection. Nous avons mis en œuvre la contre-réaction, plus appropriée à très bas champ. Des mesures d'atténuation par diffusion dans un gaz d'3He en géométrie cylindrique ont été faites par échos multiples de spin ou de gradient dans une large gamme de conditions corre

Abstract:
Topological insulators (TIs) are recently predicted, and much studied, new quantum materials. These materials are characterised by their unique surface electronic properties; namely, behaving as band insulators within their bulk, but with spin-momentum locked surface or edge states at their interface. These surface/edge crossing states are protected by the underlying time-reversal symmetry (TRS) of the bulk band structure, leading to a robust topological surface state (TSS) that is resistant to scattering from impurities which do not break TRS. Their surface band dispersion has a characteristi

Abstract:
This project revised a magneto-optical ac susceptometer aiming to improve the experimentalapproach to investigate the magnetization dynamics of magnetic nano arrays.First the experimental setp was equipped with a new Helmholtzcoil which enables strongerAC magnetic eld compared to the installed coils on the system. That includes i.e. higherRMS magnetic eld amplitudes and a higher cut-o frequency in order to increase thefrequency range for magnetization dynamic measurements. Therefore dierent coil prototypeswere fabricated and tested in table top experiments using dierent additive manufacturingm

Abstract:
Multifunctional nanocomposites are promising for a variety of applications ranging from microwave devices to biomedicine. High demand exists for magnetically tunable nanocomposite materials. My thesis focuses on synthesis and characterization of novel nanomaterials such as polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with magnetic nanoparticle (NP) fillers. Magnetite (Fe3O4) and cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) NPs with controlled shape, size, and crystallinity were successfully synthesized and used as PNC fillers in a commercial polymer provided by the Rogers Corporation a

Abstract:
The overall goals of the present PhD research are to explore the giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) and giant magnetocaloric (GMC) effects in functional magnetic materials and provide guidance on the optimization of the material properties for use in advanced magnetic sensor and refrigeration applications. GMI has attracted growing interest due to its promising applications in high-performance magnetic sensors. Research in this field is focused on the development of new materials with properties appropriate for practical GMI sensor applications. In this project, we have successfully set up a new mag

Abstract:
Grain density and magnetic susceptibility, which have been shown to distinguish H, L and LL ordinary chondrites, also may distinguish shergottites, nakhlites and chassignites from each other, but the two groups of enstatite chondrites (EH and EL) remain indistinguishable in these properties. H chondrite finds exhibit a slight negative trend in porosity with increasing petrographic type, and all chondrite falls together exhibit a pronounced negative trend in porosity spanning all petrographic types. The overall trend corresponds roughly to a positive trend in porosities with respect to both deg
