We investigate the magnetic field in an intermediate-velocity filament for which the H$\alpha$ intensity in the WHAM survey correlates with excess Faraday rotation of extragalactic radio sources over the length of the filament from b ~ 20…

The first direct measurements of effective magnetic diffusivity in turbulent flow of electro-conductive fluids (the so-called beta-effect) under magnetic Reynolds number Rm >> 1 are reported. The measurements are performed in a…

All-optical pump-probe detection of magnetization precession has been performed for ferromagnetic EuO thin films at 10 K. We demonstrate that the circularly-polarized light can be used to control the magnetization precession on an ultrafast…

A modification of the Drude dispersive model based on fractional time derivative is presented. The dielectric susceptibility is calculated analytically and simulated numerically, showing a good agreement between theoretical description and…

We report on the melting dynamics of frozen olive oil in quiescent water for Rayleigh numbers up to $10^9$. The density difference results in an upward buoyancy-driven flow of liquid oil forming a thin film around the frozen oil. We…

We predict a strong-field ultrafast optical Faraday effect, where a circularly polarized ultrashort optical pulse induces transient chirality in an achiral transparent dielectric. This effect is attractive for time-resolved measurements…

We consider a linearly polarized electromagnetic wave incident on an opaque screen with square aperture of edge a. An application of Faraday's law to a loop parallel to the screen, on the side away from the source, shows that the wave must…

We report non-invasive detection of spin coherence in a collection of Raman-driven cold atoms using dispersive Faraday rotation fluctuation measurements, which opens up new possibilities of probing spin correlations in quantum gases and…

We have completed a measurement of the $(6s^26p^2)\, ^3\!P_0 \rightarrow \, ^3\!P_2$ 939 nm electric quadrupole ($E2$) transition amplitude in atomic lead. Using a Faraday rotation spectroscopy technique and a sensitive polarimeter, we have…

Rotation of the plane of the polarization of light in the presence of a magnetic-field, known as the Faraday rotation, is a consequence of the electromagnetic nature of light and has been utilized in many optical devices. Current efforts…

The inverse Faraday effect induced in magnetic films by ultrashort laser pulses allows excitation and control of spins at GHz and sub-THz frequencies. Frequency of the excited magnetization precession is easily tunable by the external…

We show that the Faraday effect can be derived from a simple two-state model. This approach uses a quantized electromagnetic field and does not make reference to differences in refractive indices of left- and right-circularly polarized…

Faraday rotation of radio source polarization provides a measure of the integrated magnetic field along the observational lines of sight. We compare a new, large sample of Faraday rotation measures (RMs) of polarized extragalactic sources…

We report the detection of variable linear polarization from Sgr A* at a wavelength of 3.5mm, the longest wavelength yet at which a detection has been made. The mean polarization is 2.1 +/- 0.1% at a position angle of 16 +/- 2 deg with rms…

We measure the velocities of the mean flows which are driven by curved rolls in a pattern formation system. Curved rolls in Faraday waves are generated in experimental cells consisting of channels with varying widths. The mean flow…

Approximating the frequency dispersion of the permittivity of materials with simple analytical functions is of fundamental importance for understanding and modeling their optical properties. Quite generally, the permittivity can be treated…

A novel comparative technique enabling measurement of the magnetic susceptibility of diamagnetic liquids with the "Moses effect" is presented. The technique is based on the experimental establishment of the deformation of the liquid/vapor…

A convenient and general decomposition of the photon self-energy in a magnetized, but otherwise isotropic, medium is given in terms of the minimal set of tensors consistent with the transversality condition. As we show, the self-energy in…

Faraday rotation is a fundamental magneto-optical phenomenon used in various optical control and magnetic field sensing techniques. Recently, it was shown that a giant Faraday rotation can be achieved in the low-THz regime by a single…

We extend the rotation measure work of Burn (1966) to the cases of limited sampling of lambda squared space and non-constant emission spectra. We introduce the rotation measure transfer function (RMTF), which is an excellent predictor of…
