Magnetization reversal is a well-studied problem with obvious applicability in computer hard-drives. One can accomplish a magnetization reversal in at least one of two ways: application of a magnetic field, or through a spin current. The…
We begin with the time-dependent electric and magnetic dipole solution of Maxwell's equations in Minkowski space. This Maxwell field is then used to determine the behavior of the gravitational field (the Weyl tensor) as a second-order…
