Palatnik (1909–1994), Fiz. Nizk. Temp. 25, 400 (1909)], numerous investigations proved its presence in a broad variety of nonmagnetic short-range ordered materials, like structural, metallic, a-metallic, inorganic molecule, orientational, electron glasses, water, ice, carbons, and others. It was manifested by phase transitions between amorphous states as a function of the quench condition and under compression, mediated by long-wave fluctuations of an order parameter. There has been much recent discussion given to the phenomenon of polyamorphism where distinct, different states of amorphous liquids and solids are observed as a function of density. The outstanding contribution of the recently late [A. Sella, et al. (1956–2022), Nat. Mater. 21, 490 (2022)],2 in the field should be recognized here. Underlying this phenomenon is the possibility of a first-order liquid-liquid phase transition driven by the density and entropy differences between the two amorphous phases. Magnetic boost of multilayer graphene under pressure was also recently discovered. Their famous spin counterparts, such as spin liquid, spin ice, and spin glass have been less studied at this end despite numerous similarities, registered so far. Taking that in mind, for further polyamorphism platform development, we demonstrate the signatures of phase transition in spin glass, driven by a magnetic field, and eventually, a novel type of polyamorphism, the spin-glass one.","PeriodicalId":18077,"journal":{"name":"Low Temperature Physics","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141742017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These solutions are derived for the family of so-called BSk-type generalized parameterizations of the effective Skyrme forces (with three terms dependent on density n) in neutron matter. The obtained general solutions for splitting of energy gap in SNM in superstrong magnetic fields are specified for the generalized BSk21 parameterization of the effective Skyrme forces at nuclear density n0 = 0.17 fm–3 and at two supranuclear densities n = 1.25n0 and n = 1.5n0 for magnetic fields H = Z⋅1017 G, where 1≤ Z ≤ 10. The main results are the splitting of energy gap and its asymmetry which increase nonlinearly with growing both superstrong magnetic field H and supranuclear density n > n0. Such effects in SNM might exist in liquid outer core (at densities n>∼n0) in strongly magnetized neutron stars known as “magnetars”.","PeriodicalId":18077,"journal":{"name":"Low Temperature Physics","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141742024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The values of ni increase with decreasing temperature for all crystal physical directions, and the intersection of the curves nz(T) and nx(Т) at a temperature of Т = 85 K occurs. This indicates the existence of an optical isotropic point in this crystal, which is confirmed by independent temperature measurements of the angle between the optical axes. It is shown that rubidium sulfate crystals are optically biaxial, with the angle between the optical axes equal 2 V = 41.5° at room temperature. With decreasing temperature, it decreases almost linearly, so that at Т = 85 K the crystal changes from optically biaxial to optically uniaxial (2 V = 0°). The temperature changes of the values of electronic polarizability αi were calculated. It was shown that αi increases slightly as temperature decrease, so that in the region where the optical isotropic point exists, the values αх and αz are equal to each other.","PeriodicalId":18077,"journal":{"name":"Low Temperature Physics","volume":"338 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141742018","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The temperatures of the maxima increase with increasing field.

We identified the anomalous Raman lines using the shell-model calculation. It was found that with an increase in temperature, some external vibrational modes shift to the low-frequency region, and the internal vibrational modes of the (PO4)3– tetrahedra shift to the high-frequency region. This anomalous behavior of the vibrational modes is explained by the presence of magnetostriction that can selectively act on the bonds between ions in the crystal upon the transition to a magnetically ordered state.","PeriodicalId":18077,"journal":{"name":"Low Temperature Physics","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141742021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The microstructure obtained at different compositions and sintering modes is studied. It was established that the introduction of nanopowder ZrO2–3 mol % Y2O3 increases the crack resistance of sintered samples not only due to the transformation of the tetragonal phase to the monoclinic phase, but also due to the formation of a solid solution with aluminum oxide at the interphase boundaries. Starting from a temperature of 1400 °C, complete densification occurs with the formation of nonporous composites while preserving the nanostructure. At this temperature, the formation of mullite with cristobalite phases also begins. The high value of thermocycles makes it possible to use this composite material as a cryogenic one. The fabrication of mullite-corundum composites with additions of ZrO2–3 mol % Y2O3 nanopowders via the method of electrosolidification has enabled the attainment of high fracture toughness, K1C = 14.5 MPa⋅m1/2, and hardness HV10 = 14 GPa.

In this work, we demonstrate a variety of excitations of the fractional quantum Hall states of composite fermions and ultracold two-dimensional rapidly rotating bosonic atoms. Second, we can also check directly whether there is a relationship between these two phenomena by calculating the energy of N = 8 bosons in the ground state of the harmonic oscillator and a few-boson elementary excitations for the Bose–Laughlin state at the half filling factor.","PeriodicalId":18077,"journal":{"name":"Low Temperature Physics","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141742020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
