Abstract:
In-plane angular magnetoresistivity Deltarho(anis)(ab) measurements were made on Y(1-x)Pr(x)Ba(2)Cu(3)O(7-delta) single crystals in the pseudogap region. For x>/=0.2 single crystals, Deltarho(anis)(ab)(theta) displays a deviation from the typical quasiparticle contribution (proportional, sin((2)theta) for temperatures smaller than a certain value T(phi) in the pseudogap region. This deviation is consistent with a flux-flow type contribution to angular magnetoresistivity, indicating the presence of vortexlike excitations above the zero-field critical temperature in the pseudogap region.

Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...

Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...
