### Solenoid core and magnetism

I understand the core of a solenoid can help increase magnetic field produced by a given current and every metal has a specified permeability $\mu$, but what if we had a hybrid core, say 50% iron ...

### Are the polarization field and electric field in LIH dielectric in dynamic equilibrium?

If we know that the Polarization P in LIH dielectrics is proportional to the net field inside the dielectric according to: P = ε0χeE.....(1) And we know that D = εE........(2) Does it not follow ...

### One-loop beta functions of the Standard Model

For my master's research on energy scale independent combinations of renormalization group equations in supersymmetric theories, I need an overview of all the one-loop beta functions of the Standard ...

### How to relate compression ratio to work input for a compressor in a heat pump

So I need to calculate the COP (Coefficient of Performance) for a 6-ton air conditioner system in terms of the compression ratio. I understand that: $$COP=\frac{Q_L}{W_{net,in}}$$ I cannot find out ...

### Elastic Ball Collision and contact angle

For a project I need to make a good simulation of balls moving around in a space. The project will be without any air drag and without losing energy in bounces. Since there is no way to lose energy ...

### What's the typical material used as a low-k ILD in semiconductors?

Semiconductor companies (namely IBM, Intel, TSMC and etc.) may use different low-k materials as inter-layer dielectric (ILD) in their fabrication process. I'm wondering what is the most typical one. ...

### origin of cusps in simulated dark matter halos

I keep reading that cusps are one of the most "robust" predictions of N-body simulations of dark matter halos. But any paper I've found on the topic makes it sound like these simulations are ...

### Force on an electron at an arbitrary point inside a cylinder (electron gun)

I want to simulate the path of an electron through the anode of an electron gun. I therefore need to calculate the force on the electron due to the electric field from the anode and apply that to its ...

### Increasing number of neutrons in nucleus

I understand that the neutron-proton bonds in the nucleus creates the strong nuclear force but,how does increasing the number of neutrons in a nucleus affect electrostatic force, nuclear force and the ...

### Properties of material affecting magnetic refrigeration

I am reading about magnetic refrigeration at the moment - I see that two factors affecting the applicability of the material for use in magnetic refrigeration is that they must react strongly (i.e the ...

### 2D Ising model simulations: Wolff algorithm acceptance probability with an external magnetic field

I have implemented the Wolff algorithm to simulate a 2D ferromagnet. It works by building a cluster of like spins and flipping them all at once to move quickly through phase space. In the case of no ...
