Structural Phase Transition And Ferromagnetism In Monodisperse 3 Nm Fept Particles, Chuan-Bing Rong, Narayan Poudyal, Girija S. Chaubey, Vikas Nandwana, Ralph Skomski, Y. Q. Wu, Matthew J. Kramer, J. Ping Liu

Ralph Skomski Publications

FePt nanoparticles with a size of 3 nm and thermally stable room-temperature ferromagnetism are investigated. The monodisperse nanoparticles were prepared by chemical synthesis and a salt-matrix annealing technique. Structural and magnetic characterizations confirmed the phase transition from the disordered face-centered cubic structure to the L10 structure with the chemical ordering parameter of 0.62±0.05. Analysis in blocking temperature and fitting of temperature dependence of switching field reveals that the transformed 3 nm nanoparticles have a magnetic anisotropy constant of (2.8±0.2) x 106 J/m3, smaller than those for the bigger particles and the fully ordered L1 …

The Tennessee State University Automatic Spectroscopic Telescope: Data Processing And Velocity Variation Of Cool Giants, Joel A. Eaton, Michael H. Williamson Aug 2007

The Tennessee State University Automatic Spectroscopic Telescope: Data Processing And Velocity Variation Of Cool Giants, Joel A. Eaton, Michael H. Williamson

Information Systems and Engineering Management Research Publications

This paper discusses data reduction for an echelle spectrograph we have developed for an automatic telescope at Tennessee State University and are using to monitor radial velocities and line profiles of cool giant and supergiant stars. Although our approach to data reduction is rather conventional, we discuss flat‐fielding and extraction of velocities in ways that should be of general interest, establish a transformation to the IAU radial velocity system (+0.35 ± 0.09 km s−1), and determine the external precision for measured velocities (0.10–0.11 km s−1). Also, we present results of the first 2–3 years of monitoring radial velocities in about …

Optimization Of Control Source And Error Sensor Locations In Free Field Active Noise Control, Connor Raymond Duke Aug 2007

Optimization Of Control Source And Error Sensor Locations In Free Field Active Noise Control, Connor Raymond Duke

Theses and Dissertations

Previous work has shown that active noise control (ANC) can be applied to axial cooling fans. Optimization of the control source and error sensor placement is desired to maximize the attenuation using ANC. A genetic algorithm was developed to find the optimal placement of control sources for a given primary source. The optimal configuration of control sources around a single primary source was shown to be a linear arrangement of the sources. This holds true for both two-dimensional as well as three-dimensional configurations. The higher-order radiation of the linear arrangement has also been verified experimentally, but the improvement in the …
