The Hanle Effect As A Diagnostic Of Magnetic Fields In Stellar Envelopes Iii. Including The Finite Star Depolarization Effect., R. Ignace Jan 2001

The Hanle Effect As A Diagnostic Of Magnetic Fields In Stellar Envelopes Iii. Including The Finite Star Depolarization Effect., R. Ignace

Richard Ignace

The Hanle effect is a relatively new magnetic diagnostic in stellar astrophysics. Although a substantial literature exists for applications of the Hanle effect in solar studies, the Hanle effect is only a fledgling subject in stellar astrophysics, with previous work focusing on simplistic cases to isolate the magnetic effects on polarized resonance scattering line profiles. In particular, applications to stars have treated the star as a point source of illumination. This paper carries the work forward by considering the consequences of finite stellar size for the line polarization. An approach based on intensity moments is derived. For optically thin line …

The Y-Triangle Move Does Not Preserve Intrinsic Knottedness, Ramin Naimi, Erica Flapan

We answer the question "Does the Y-triangle move preserve intrinsic knottedness?" in the negative by giving an example of a graph that is obtained from the intrinsically knotted graph K_7 by triangle-Y and Y-triangle moves but is not intrinsically knotted.

The Influence Of Ni On The Transport Properties Of Cosb3, C. Uher, Jeffrey Dyck, W. Chen, G. Meisner, J. Yang Dec 2000

The Influence Of Ni On The Transport Properties Of Cosb3, C. Uher, Jeffrey Dyck, W. Chen, G. Meisner, J. Yang

Jeffrey Dyck

The effect of Ni doping on the Co site of the binary skutterudite CoSb3 is investigated. We measured resistivity, Hall effect, magnetoresistance, thermopower, thermal conductivity, and magnetization of a series of samples of the form Co1-xNixSb3 with x in the range x=0 to x=0.01. We find that Ni takes the tetravalent state Ni4+, assumes the d6 electronic configuration for the lower energy non-bonding orbitals, and gives an electron to the conduction band. Ni doping dramatically suppresses the thermal conductivity, changes the temperature dependence of the thermopower, and increases the carrier concentration. Low temperature anomalies in thermopower, Hall coefficient and magnetoresistance …

Low Temperature Thermoelectric Properties Of Ni Doped N-Type Filled Skutterudites Ba0.3co4sb12 ., W. Chen, Jeffrey Dyck, C. Uher, L. Chen, X. Tang, T. Hirai

Jeffrey Dyck

n-type Ba filled skutterudites doped with Ni, Ba0.3Ni xCo4-xSb12 with 0⩽x⩽0.2, have been synthesized and the Seebeck coefficient, thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity and Hall coefficient have been measured. ZT of 1.2 has been achieved at 800 K with x=0.05. The thermal conductivity data are fitted and the rattling effect of the Ba atoms is identified through a resonance scattering term. The Hall mobility is studied and a mixed scattering mechanism of acoustic phonons and ionized impurities based on a single, rigid band picture is presented. The role of Ni atoms in enhancing the thermoelectric performance is discussed

Multi-Filling Approach For The Improvement Of Thermoelectric Properties Of Skutterudites., L. Chen, X. Tang, T. Kawahara, Jeffrey Dyck

Jeffrey Dyck

Several skutterudite antimonides filled with atoms of different kinds, (Ba, M)yCo4Sb12 (M=Ce, La, Sr), have been synthesized by the combination of solid state reaction and melting methods. Thermal conductivity of (Ba,Sr)yCo4 Sb12 samples shows a behavior similar to that of BayCo4Sb12. Adding a small amount of Ce or La to the BayCo4Sb12 system is effective in further reducing the lattice thermal conductivity. The difference in the ionic radii of the two co-filler atoms is the most sensitive factor for scattering of phonons. The multi-filled (Ba, M)yCo4Sb12 (M=Sr, Ce, La) show lower Seebeck coefficients as compared to the single-filled BayCo 4Sb12 …

High-Temperature Thermoelectric Properties Of N-Type Baynixco4-Xsb12., X. Tang, L. Zhang, R. Yuan, L. Chen, T. Goto, T. Hirai, Jeffrey Dyck, W. Chen, C. Uher

Jeffrey Dyck

Effects of Ba filling fraction and Ni content on the thermoelectric properties of n-type BayNixCo4-xSb12 (x = 0-0.1, y = 0.-0.4) were investigated at temperature range of 300 to 900 K. Thermal conductivity decreased with increasing Ba filling fraction and temperature. When y was fixed at 0.3, thermal conductivity decreased with increasing Ni content and reached a minimum value at about x = 0.05. Lattice thermal conductivity decreased with increasing Ni content, monotonously (y ≤ 0.1). Electron concentration and electrical conductivity increased with increasing Ba filling fraction and Ni content. Seebeck coefficient increased with increasing temperature and decreased with increasing …

Tian-Xiao He

In this paper, we will discuss the construction of biorthogonal wavelets that possess the largest possible regularities and required vanishing moments. For the sake of applications, we also give a general Daubechies’ iteration method of constructing biorthogonal wavelets by using biorthogonal splines.

Preparation And Some Physical Properties Of Tetradymite-Type Sb2te3 Single Crystals Doped With Cds., P. LošŤÁK, Č. Drašar, A. Krejc ̆ Ova, L. Beneš, Jeffrey Dyck, W. Chen, C. Uher

Jeffrey Dyck

Single crystals of Sb2Te3 doped with CdS were prepared by a modified Bridgman method from the elements Sb and Te of 5N purity and the CdS compound of 4.5N purity. Samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction and by measurement of reflectance in the plasma resonance frequency region at room temperature. Furthermore, we made measurements of temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity, Hall and Seebeck coefficients, and thermal conductivity in the temperature range of 4.2–300K. In the process of crystal growth, CdS dissociated and it was assumed that the Cd-atoms formed substitutional defects in the Sb-sublattice (CdSb′) while the S-atoms formed …

Gyroscope Precession And General Relativity, Br Holstein Dec 2000

Gyroscope Precession And General Relativity, Br Holstein

Barry R Holstein

Precession of a gyroscope in the presence of a gravitational field is of considerable interest, on account of the soon to be launched satellite test and because of its connection to Mach's principle. Nevertheless, this topic is not generally covered in the curriculum because of the mathematical sophistication required. We examine some of the simple physics involved and argue that by examining simple graviton-elementary particle couplings one can easily understand this phenomenon.

Synthesis And High Temperature Thermoelectric Properties Of N-Type Baynixco4-Xsb12., X. Tang, L. Chen, T. Goto, Jeffrey Dyck

Jeffrey Dyck

Single-phase filled skutterudite compounds BayNx Co4-xSb12 (x=0-0.1, y=0-0.4) were synthesized by a two-step solid state reaction. Effects of Ba filling fraction and Ni content on the thermoelectric properties of n-type Ba yNixCo4-xSb12 were investigated. Thermal conductivity decreased with increasing Ba filling fraction and temperature. When barium filling fraction (y) was fixed at 0.3, the thermal conductivity decreased with increasing Ni content, and reached a minimum value at about x=0.05. Electron concentration and electrical conductivity increased with increasing Ba filling fraction and Ni content. Seebeck coefficient increased with increasing temperature, and decreased with increasing Ba filling fraction and Ni content. A …

Thermoelectric Properties Of Yb-Filled And Sn-Compensated Skutterudites ., Jihui Yang, Gregory Meisner, Wei Chen, Jeffrey Dyck, Ctirad Uher

Jeffrey Dyck

The effect of alloying tin on the antimony site of ytterbium-filled skutterudites is examined. We performed measurements of Hall effect, electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity on the series Yb0.5Co4Sb12-x Snx, with x=0.5, 0.6, 0.8 and 0.83. We find that the substitution of tin does not alter the position of the Fermi level with respect to the conduction band of these heavily doped semiconducting samples, but rather it gives rise to a p-type band. Experimental data for x=0.83 can be understood in the context of a two-carrier electrical conduction. Thermal conductivity of these ytterbium-filled skutterudites is significantly suppressed with …
