An essential property of magnetic devices is the relaxation rate in magnetic switching which strongly depends on the energy dissipation and magnetic inertia of the magnetization dynamics. Both parameters are commonly taken as a phenomenological entities. However very recently, a large effort has been dedicated to obtain Gilbert damping from first principles. In contrast, there is no ab initio study that so far has reproduced measured data of magnetic inertia in magnetic materials. In this letter, we present and elaborate on a theoretical model for calculating the magnetic moment of inertia based on the torque-torque correlation model. Particularly, the method has been applied to bulk bcc Fe, fcc Co and fcc Ni in the framework of the tight-binding approximation and the numerical values are comparable with recent experimental measurements. The theoretical results elucidate the physical origin of the moment of inertia based on the electronic structure. Even though the moment of inertia and damping are produced by the spin-orbit coupling, our analysis shows that they are caused by undergo different electronic structure mechanisms.

The moment of inertia for nuclear collective rotations was derived within the semiclassical approach based on the cranking model and the Strutinsky shell-correction method by using the non-perturbative periodic-orbit theory in the phase space variables. This moment of inertia for adiabatic (statistical-equilibrium) rotations can be approximated by the generalized rigid-body moment of inertia accounting for the shell corrections of the particle density. A semiclassical phase-space trace formula allows to express quite accurately the shell components of the moment of inertia in terms of the free-energy shell corrections for integrable and partially chaotic Fermi systems, in good agreement with the quantum calculations.
We present a systematic density functional theory (DFT) plus Hubbard $U$ study of structural trends and the stability of different magnetically ordered states across the rare-earth nickelate series, $R$NiO$_3$, with $R$ from Lu to La. In particular, we investigate how the magnetic order, the change of the rare-earth ion, and the Hubbard interaction $U$ are affecting the bond-length disproportionation between the nickel sites. Our results show that structural parameters can be obtained that are in very good agreement with present experimental data, and that DFT+$U$ is in principle able to capture the most important structural trends across the nickelate series. However, the amplitude of the bond-length disproportionation depends very strongly on the specific value used for the Hubbard $U$ parameter and also on the type of magnetic order imposed in the calculation. Regarding the relative stability of different magnetic orderings, a realistic antiferromagnetic order, consistent with the experimental observations, is favored for small $U$ values, and becomes more and more favorable compared to the ferromagnetic state towards the end of the series (i.e., towards $R$=Pr). Nevertheless, it seems that the stability of the ferromagnetic state is generally overestimated within the DFT+$U$ calculations. Our work provides a profound starting point for more detailed experimental investigations, and also for future studies using more advanced computational techniques such as, e.g., DFT combined with dynamical mean-field theory.
Within the covariant formulation of light-front dynamics, we calculate the state vector of a physical fermion in the Yukawa model. The state vector is decomposed in Fock sectors and we consider the first three ones: the single constituent fermion, the constituent fermion coupled to one scalar boson, and the constituent fermion coupled to two scalar bosons. This last three-body sector generates nontrivial and nonperturbative contributions to the state vector, which are calculated numerically. Field-theoretical divergences are regularized using Pauli-Villars fermion and boson fields. Physical observables can be unambiguously deduced using a systematic renormalization scheme we have developed previously. As a first application, we consider the anomalous magnetic moment of the physical fermion.
A precise moment of inertia measurement for PSR J0737-3039A in the double pulsar system is expected within the next five years. We present here a new method of mapping the anticipated measurement of the moment of inertia directly into the neutron star structure. We determine the maximum and minimum values possible for the moment of inertia of a neutron star of a given radius based on physical stability arguments, assuming knowledge of the equation of state only at densities below the nuclear saturation density. If the equation of state is trusted up to the nuclear saturation density, we find that a measurement of the moment of inertia will place absolute bounds on the radius of PSR J0737-3039A to within $pm$1 km. The resulting combination of moment of inertia, mass, and radius measurements for a single source will allow for new, stringent constraints on the dense-matter equation of state.
The magnets are typically classified into Stoner and Heisenberg type, depending on the itinerant or localized nature of the constituent magnetic moments. In this work, we investigate theoretically the behaviour of the magnetic moments of iron and cobalt in their B2-ordered alloy. The results based on local spin density approximation (LSDA) for the density functional theory (DFT) suggest that the Co magnetic moment strongly depends on the directions of the surrounding magnetic moments, which usually indicates the Stoner-type mechanism of magnetism. This is consistent with the disordered local moment (DLM) picture of the paramagnetic state, where the magnetic moment of cobalt gets substantially suppressed. We argue that this is due to the lack of strong on-site electron correlations, which we take into account by employing a combination of DFT and dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). Within LDA+DMFT, we find a substantial quasiparticle mass renormalization and a non Fermi-liquid behaviour of Fe-$3d$ orbitals. The resulting spectral functions are in very good agreement with measured spin-resolved photoemission spectra. Our results suggest that local correlations play an essential role in stabilizing a robust local moment on Co in the absence of magnetic order at high temperatures.
