The LPS thrust must be constant over a specified displacement range, and must be proportional to the current. This paper describes simulations of the thrust-displacement characteristics of LPSes as determined by FEM, conducted with the aim of improving the LPM thrust. In model P, where high flux-density permendur was used in the LPS stator and mover, the maximum thrust increased from 27 to 40 N. The range of constant thrust, however, decreased from 1.0 to 0.5 mm. In model S, where permendur was used in the stator and mover, and the salient pole of the stator in the LPS was modified, the range of constant thrust was the same as in the present model. Moreover, the static thrust in the range of constant thrust increased from 27 to 38 N.","PeriodicalId":100647,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Translation Journal on Magnetics in Japan","volume":"9 6","pages":"117-121"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TJMJ.1994.4565967","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68041822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to understand the interaction between light-emitting ablated particles produced by excimer laser ablation of Fe and ambient N\u0000<sub>2</sub>\u0000 gas, the dynamics of ablated plumes were investigated by means of a high-speed framing streak camera and time-resolved emission spectroscopy. Two distinct components of ablated particles were observed. One consisted of a spherical plume with an average velocity of over 100 km/s, which was observed for about 300 ns from the laser irradiation. The other consisted of a columnar plume with a maximum velocity of 22 km/s, which was observed for 1 to 10 μs.

The moving ring current induced by an exciting coil current, and the magnetic flux of the permanent magnets, generate a driving force acting on the moving ring. The induction VCM is not able to generate forces below the lower cutoff frequency or above the higher cutoff frequency. The lower cutoff frequency is lowered by raising the permeability and lowering the hysteresis loss of the core; the higher cutoff frequency is raised by reducing core eddy current losses and lowering the leakage inductance of the moving ring. There is an electromechanical parallel resonance near the lower cutoff frequency, and the higher permeability and lower loss make the resonance stronger and lowers the resonance frequency.","PeriodicalId":100647,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Translation Journal on Magnetics in Japan","volume":"9 6","pages":"110-116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TJMJ.1994.4565966","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67873546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To discover these noise sources, I observed conversions of magnetic domain structure after writing with an electron microscope.

Thin-film heads were excited by a 10 mA\u0000<sub>p-p</sub>\u0000, 100 kHz driving current. The magnetic domains in the upper yokes of the heads were observed after 60 mA\u0000<sub>p-p</sub>\u0000 write operations. The head with the highest noise probability, at 5.2×10\u0000<sup>-2</sup>\u0000, exhibited walls radiating outward from the back-gap closure, which were due to stress. The magnetic domain structure was severely deformed after writing. The head with the lowest noise probability, at 1.6×10\u0000<sup>4</sup>\u0000, exhibited a normal closure domain configuration, with very little conversion. These results indicate that noise-after-write is generated mainly near the backgap closure.","PeriodicalId":100647,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Translation Journal on Magnetics in Japan","volume":"9 6","pages":"210-217"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TJMJ.1994.4565982","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67873630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was found that as the amount of Nd was increased, the C/N ratio at a wavelength of 532 nm was improved. In spite of an increase in the Kerr rotation angle, the carrier level was not significantly improved. This fact can be explained by the disk's magnetooptic characteristics, as a result of which the Kerr ellipticity angle decrease in the short-wavelength region as the Nd content was increased. Thus the value of the figure of merit was not improved. The improvement in C/N ratio was due to a decrease in the noise level.","PeriodicalId":100647,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Translation Journal on Magnetics in Japan","volume":"9 6","pages":"197-201"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TJMJ.1994.4565980","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67872980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper discusses the characteristics of the LPM developed by the authors to drive the IABP, and describes the results of evaluation of an LPM-driven IABP. Our investigation revealed the following. (1) The trial LPM was 1.3 L in volume and had a mass of 6.3 kg. Its use will reduce the weight of IABP devices. (2) The LPM has a high thrust/volume ratio of 0.88 N/ml. (3) The driving characteristic of the LPM-driven IABP was evaluated using a mock testing device. The maximum pumping rate of this IABP device is approximately 120 beats/min. As a result, an LPM-driven IABP will be capable of sufficiently high performance to enable clinical use.","PeriodicalId":100647,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Translation Journal on Magnetics in Japan","volume":"9 6","pages":"98-103"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TJMJ.1994.4565964","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67873545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
