We explore a phenomenological phase diagram for the magnetic helical state with 90$^{\circ}$ turn angle between neighboring spins in the external magnetic field. Such state is formed by the Eu spin layers in the superconducting iron…
In this work we find that the at the high polar magnetic fields of magnetars, $B \sim 10^{14-15}$ G, the outermost crust ($\rho < 10^7$ gm/cc) of the star can become a transverse insulator and a filamentary crystal along the field…
Strong magnetic fields are observed in a substantial fraction of upper main sequence stars and white dwarfs. Many such stars are observed to exhibit photometric modulations as the magnetic poles rotate in and out of view, which could be a…
The Faraday rotation technique is used to map out the finite-temperature phase diagram of the prototypical frustrated magnet ZnCr2O4, in magnetic fields of up to 190 T generated by the single-turn coil method. We find evidence for a number…
We analyze the criterion for the appearance of magnetic moments in quasicrystals approximants and liquids Al-Mn. In a Hartree-Fock scheme, it is shown that the Stoner criterion (Un_d(E_F) > 1) does not apply to these systems due to the…
We demonstrate the possibility of a coupling between the magnetization direction of a ferromagnet and the tilting angle of adsorbed achiral molecules. To illustrate the mechanism of the coupling, we analyze a minimal Stoner model that…
Fractionalised excitations that emerge from a many body system have revealed rich physics and concepts, from composite fermions in two-dimensional electron systems, revealed through the fractional quantum Hall effect, to spinons in…
The lack of the theory of the crystalline electric field (CEF) in rare-earth based quasicrystal (QC) and approximant crystal (AC) has prevented us from understanding the electronic states. Recent success of the formulation of the CEF theory…
Based on micromagnetic theory we have derived analytical expressions for the magnetic small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) cross section of a two-phase particle-matrix-type ferromagnet. The approach---valid close to magnetic…
The magnetic field is a key ingredient in the recipe of star formation. Over the past two decades, millimeter and submillimeter interferometers have made major strides in unveiling the role of the magnetic field in star formation at…
Magnetars are neutron stars with superstrong magnetic fields. Some of them (soft-gamma repeaters, SGRs) demonstrate gigantic flares which nature is still unclear. At decay phase of such flares one often observes quasi-periodic oscillations…
We extend a general-relativistic ideal magneto-hydrodynamical code to include the effects of elasticity. Using this numerical tool we analyse the magneto-elastic oscillations of highly magnetised neutron stars (magnetars). In simulations…
The radial characteristic of a partially magnetized plasma column created by a hot cathode filament is presented. It is found that in the absence of magnetic field, plasma potential and density varies similarly according to Boltzmann…
The ground state energy and the lowest excitations of a two dimensional Wigner crystal in a perpendicular magnetic field with one and two electrons per cell is investigated. In case of two electrons per lattice site, the interaction of the…
Eugene Wigner predicted long ago that when the Coulomb interactions between electrons become much stronger than their kinetic energy, electrons crystallize into a closely packed lattice. A variety of two-dimensional systems have shown…
To search for a conceptual picture describing the magnetization plateau phenomenon, we surveyed the crystal structures and the spin lattices of those magnets exhibiting plateaus in their magnetization vs. magnetic field curves by probing…
We report a comprehensive study of single crystals of the noncentrosymmetric rare-earth compound EuPtSi$_{3}$ grown by the optical floating-zone technique. Measurements of the magnetization, ac susceptibility, and specific heat consistently…
We study the emergence of magnetism and its interplay with structural properties in a two dimensional molecular crystal of cyclacenes, using density functional theory (DFT). Isolated cyclacenes with an even number of fused benzenes host two…
Competition between exchange interactions and magnetocrystalline anisotropy may bring new magnetic states that are of great current interest. An applied hydrostatic pressure can further be used to tune their balance. In this work we…
CeRh$_3$Si$_2$ has been reported to exhibit metamagnetic transitions below 5~K, a giant crystal field splitting, and anisotropic magnetic properties from single crystal magnetization and heat capacity measurements. Here we report results of…
