It is the magnetic poles, and not the moving electric charges are the direct sources of all magnetic fields and magnetic manifestations in Nature. Basic reasons of ignoring the magnetic fundamental particles by world physical theory, for almost 150 years, are the ultra-harsh confinement of these particles in substance which radically is different from the confinement electrons, as well as the vicious concept of the electric magnetism Maxwell. Rotating magnetic dipoles in conductors which are untwisted by electric current, are direct sources of the vortex magnetic field rot<em><strong>H</strong></em>. One should also expect the formation of a vortex electric field rot<em><strong>E </strong></em>forming by rotating electric dipoles which are untwisted by the current of magnetic charges. This article provides an experimental answer to the question: what field is formed around a conductor if joint direct currents of electric<em> <strong style="white-space:normal;"><em>J</em></strong></em><sub>e</sub> and magnetic<strong><em> J</em></strong><sub>g</sub> charges are passed through it? The author’s experiments have shown that in this case the vortex electromagnetic current is realized which manifests itself as the vortex electromagnetic (gravitational) field. It is possible to implement such a process, according to the results of the author’s research, exclusively in superconductors. The vector character of the gravitational field is in many respects similar to the vortex magnetic field which makes it possible to introduce such it states as paragravitation and ferrogravitation into representations. To create joint currents of electric and magnetic charges, the author used the inertial forces of these particles under conditions of acceleration and deceleration of the rotational motion of the closed lead superconductor. The result of this experiment was the gravitational, as it turned out later, the ferrogravitational field, which was detected by effect repulsion of trial cargos from the coil with a superconducting winding at the stage of its untwist. The latter process is defined by the author as an effect of the gravitational (ferrogravitational) levitation. The values of ferrogravitational (levitational) forces noted in this experiment were: 120 mg for a tungsten trial cargo and 50 and 25 mg for a lead cargo with an error of ±15 mg. The values of ferrogravitational (levitational) forces noted in this experiment are: 120 mg for from tungsten trial cargo and 50 and 25 mg for a cargo from lead, with an error of ±15 mg. The “anomaly” noted by the author in this study was in the absence of any absence of a gravitational effect on stage a braking of the coil. Probable cause of the noted “anomaly” is discussed in the Discussion of Results chapter.展开更多

Fast and accurate detection is the prerequisite for suppression and elimination of ferro resonance. Wavelet transform provides a powerful tool for analysis of nonstationary signals. This paper applies wavelet transform to detect ferro resonance. Analysis results show that it makes extraction of failure information accurate, and fast algorithm makes detection real time.展开更多

Under the aerobic conditions, the manganese bacteria can oxidate Mn2+ into Mn4+. In the course of the manganese bacteria multiplication, the continual increaes of environmental pH is advantageous to the oxidation of manganese and the rise of environmental temperature helps the bacteria to speed the oxidation of manganese ions. The manganese bacteria can fastly oxidate Fe2+ in the culture containing low vaient ferro into Fe3+, its oxidation speed being faster than that of manganese oxide. Under the anaerobic conditions,the manganese bacteria can reduce high valent ferro in solutioninto low valent ferro and distinctly lower the environmental pH.展开更多

The structure of the PSFA-REC composite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD), in order to determine the optimal temperature. The flocculation test was made at 25℃, 45℃ and 65℃, the results indicated that when the temperature was 65℃, the removal efficiency of the oil and COD was the best, which was 87.2% and 92.6% respectively. Then by comparisons among rectorite (REC), PSFA and the composite PSFA-REC at the temperature of 65℃ and the optimal dosage of 11 mg/L, the composite PSFA-REC showed better flocculation performance than flocculant REC and PSFA alone.展开更多

X-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscopy were used to investigate the microstructure and morphology of the glass-coated microwires respectively. The vibrating sample magnetometer and vector network analyzer were used to study the magnetostatic and microwave properties of glass-coated microwires. The experimental results show that the effective anisotropy of an array of 150 microwires of 10 mm in length is large than that of one microwire of 10 mm in diameter and an array of 150 microwires of 1 mm in diameter. The natural ferromagnetic resonance takes place as the microwave magnetic component is perpendicular to the microwires axis, and the electric dipole resonance takes place as the microwire is long or the short microwire concentration is moderate. The natural ferromagnetic resonance shifts to higher frequency with the larger microwire concentration. The electric dipole resonance is governed by the microwires length and concentration. The glass-coated FeCuNbSiB microwires can be used to design EMI filters and microwave absorbing materials.展开更多

Under certain restrictions for constructing localized many-particle ground states of flat-band ferromagnetism, the quantum model of strongly correlated electrons is mapped to a classical statistical geometric site-percolation problem, where the nontrivial weights of different configurations must be considered. We prove rigorously the existence of para-ferro transition for the SU(N) Hubbard model on one-dimensional Tasaki lattice and determine the critical density by the transfer-matrix method. In two dimensions, we numerically investigate the phase transition of SU(3),SU(4) and SU(10) Hubbard models by Metropolis Monte Carlo simulation. We find that the critical density exceeds that of standard percolation, and increases with spin degrees of freedom, implying that the effective repulsive interaction becomes stronger for larger N. We further rigorously prove the existence of flat-band ferromagnetism of the SUeNT Hubbard model when the number of particles equals to the degeneracy of the lowest band in the single-particle energy spectrum.展开更多
