We investigate the effect of dilution on dipolar interaction with linear and non-linear rheological properties of kerosene based magnetic fluid. The steady-state behavior demonstrate a shear thinning behavior and corroborated with a power law, (η = c n + η∞) exponent, n ≤ 1. The shear-induced-breakup (separation) of nanoparticles and the yielding behavior has been explained by Bingham model. Moreover, the magnetoviscous effect showed an initial increase at low shear rate and decrease at higher shear rate. Further, specific viscosity (ηF)-versus-Mason number (Mn) shows a perfect scaling at lower Mn (≤10-4) confirming negligible thermal and colloidal forces. Whereas, at higher Mn (≥10-3) deviation from collapse indicates the dominance of Brownian forces acting on nanofluids. The magnetic field dependent elastic (G') and viscous (G″) modulus reveal a crossover from viscoelastic-to-viscous behavior of nanofluid at critical concentration. Finally, we compare viscoelastic results with De Gans diagonal scaling theory to correlate the functional dependence of storage and loss modules with different particle volume concentration.

Theory and simulations are used to demonstrate implementation of a variational Bayes algorithm called "active inference" in interacting arrays of nanomagnetic elements. The algorithm requires stochastic elements, and a simplified model based on a magnetic artificial spin ice geometry is used to illustrate how nanomagnets can generate the required random dynamics. Examples of tracking and PID control are demonstrated and shown to be consistent with the original stochastic differential equation formulation of active inference.

Singlet fission in carotenoid dimers - the role of the exchange and dipolar interactions.

Phys Chem Chem Phys

January 2025

Department of Chemistry, Physical and Theoretical Chemistry Laboratory, University of Oxford, Oxford OX1 3QZ, UK.

A theory of singlet fission in carotenoid dimers is presented which aims to explain the mechanism behind the creation of two uncorrelated triplets. Following the excitation of a carotenoid chain "bright" B+u state, there is ultrafast internal conversion to the intrachain "dark" 1B-u triplet-pair state. This strongly exchange-coupled state evolves into a pair of triplets on separate chains and spin-decoheres to form a pair of single, unentangled triplets, corresponding to complete singlet fission.

Recent advances in computational methods like AlphaFold have transformed structural biology, enabling accurate modeling of protein complexes and driving applications in drug discovery and protein engineering. However, predicting the structure of systems involving weak, transient, or dynamic interactions, or of complexes with disordered regions, remains challenging. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy offers atomic-level insights into biomolecular complexes, even in weakly interacting and dynamic systems.

Eudesmane-type sesquiterpene lactone isoalantolactone 1 is of great interest due to its availability, biological activity and synthetic application. Respective series of original spirocyclic (11S,5') (1,2,3-triazoline-eudesma-4,15-enolides) and (11S)-aziridine-eudesma-4,15-enolides were efficiently synthesized via a chemoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of organic azides to the exocyclic double bond of the lactone ring of isoalantolactone or 13E-(aryl)isoalantolactones by heating in DMF or toluene. The thermal reactions of isoalantolactone with benzyl azide, 2-azidoethanol, or n-butyl azide in 2-methoxyethanol afforded 13-(alkyamino)isoalantolactones formed as a mixture of (Z) and (E)-isomers.

Local field effects of quadrupole contributions on sum frequency generation spectroscopy.

J Chem Phys

December 2024

Department of Chemistry, Graduate School of Science, Tohoku University, Sendai 980-8578, Japan.

In the theory of condensed-phase spectroscopy, local field effect is of general importance to account for intermolecular electrostatic interactions. The present paper extends the microscopic treatment of local field effects on the sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy to incorporate quadrupole interactions, since their roles have been increasingly recognized in the SFG spectroscopy. The extended theory involves some corrections to the conventional formulas of the nonlinear susceptibilities in both the interface and bulk regions, including the χIQB term.
