In-line application of electric field in capillary separation systems: Joule heating, pH and conductivity.

This engineering study investigated factors affecting current when an electric field is applied in-line in a capillary separation system. Temperature measurements and a replicated cooling setup were used to estimate Joule heating effects, which were reported to be relatively small. In contrast, significant pH shifts…

Magnetic field switching between the two orbital-ordered states in DyVO3.

This Physical Review Letters study investigates phase competition between spin- and orbital-ordered states in a DyVO3 single crystal. The abstract reports reentrant temperature-driven transitions in spin ordering and orbital ordering. It also reports that an applied magnetic field can switch between orbital-ordered…

Sine-Gordon description of Beresinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless vortices in superconductors immersed in an external magnetic field.

This theoretical paper investigates Beresinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless vortex physics in two-dimensional superconductors under an external magnetic field using a sine-Gordon field-theory approach. The authors state that the model yields a straightforward definition of field-induced magnetization. They also report that…
