The determination of the magnon diffusion length (MDL) is important for increasing the efficiency of spin Seebeck effect (SSE) based devices utilising non-metallic magnets. We extract the MDL at $50$ and $300,rm{K}$ in an $rm{Fe}_{3}rm{O}_{4}$ single crystal from the magnon dispersion obtained using inelastic neutron scattering (INS) and find them to be equal within error. We then measure the heat flux normalised SSE responses and in-plane magnetization of $rm{Fe}_{3}rm{O}_{4}$ thin films and normalise by the static magnetization contribution to the SSE before determining the MDLs from a fit of the thickness dependence. We find that the MDLs determined in this way are smaller than that measured from INS which maybe due to differences in magnon propagation between bulk and thin film $rm{Fe}_{3}rm{O}_{4}$.

The dynamics of the charge-order domains has been investigated in La$_{1.48}$Nd$_{0.4}$Sr$_{0.12}$CuO$_{4}$, a prototypical stripe-ordered cuprate, using pulsed current injection. We first identify the regime in which nonthermal effects dominate over simple Joule heating, and then demonstrate that, for small enough perturbation, pulsed current injection allows access to nonthermally-induced resistive metastable states. The results are consistent with pinning of the fluctuating charge order, with fluctuations being most pronounced at the charge-order onset temperature. The nonequilibrium effects are revealed only when the transition is approached from the charge-ordered phase. Our experiment establishes pulsed current injection as a viable and effective method for probing the charge-order dynamics in various other materials.
With increasing temperature, ${rm Sr}_2{rm ScSbO}_6$ undergoes three structural phase transitions at approximately ${rm 400K}$, ${rm 560K}$ and ${rm 650K}$, leading to the following sequence of phases: $P2_1/n rightarrow I2/m rightarrow I4/m rightarrow Fmbar{3}m$, making it an ideal candidate to study the effects of octahedral tilting keeping other parameters fixed. To ascertain the isolated effects of octahedral distortions, the electronic and optical properties of the monoclinic $P2_1/n$ (at room temperature), monoclinic $I2/m$ (at ${rm 430K}$), tetragonal $I4/m$ (at ${rm 613K}$) and the cubic $Fmbar{3}m$ (at ${rm 660K}$) phases have been studied in terms of the electronic structure, dielectric constant, optical conductivity and electron energy loss spectroscopy using density functional theory. ${rm Ca}_2{rm ScSbO}_6$, on the other hand, shows only a $P2_1/n$ phase at room temperature and its properties have been been compared with the corresponding ${rm Sr}$ compound. UV-Vis spectroscopic studies of the optical properties of the room-temperature phase of these $d^0$ double perovskite have been performed and presence of large direct bandgap for both the compounds have been reported. The electronic bandgaps for the room temperature phases is found to be in good agreement with the corresponding experimental values obtained using the Kubelka-Munk function. Interestingly, in contrast to other Sc-based $d^0$ double perovskites, with increasing octahedral distortions, the effective $t_{rm 2g}$ bandwidth remains unaffected while the states forming the band change due to changes in unit cell orientation, leading to small effects on the electronic and optical properties.
We utilize the experimentally known difference of the $Lambda$ separation energies of the mirror hypernuclei ${^4_Lambda rm He}$ and ${^4_Lambda rm H}$ to constrain the $Lambda$-neutron interaction. We include the leading charge-symmetry breaking (CSB) interaction into our hyperon-nucleon interaction derived within chiral effective field theory at next-to-leading order. In particular, we determine the strength of the two arising CSB contact terms by a fit to the differences of the separation energies of these hypernuclei in the $0^+$ and $1^+$ states, respectively. By construction, the resulting interaction describes all low energy hyperon-nucleon scattering data, the hypertriton and the CSB in ${^4_Lambda rm He}$-${^4_Lambda rm H}$ accurately. This allows us to provide first predictions for the $Lambda$n scattering lengths, based solely on available hypernuclear data.
Using neutron reflectometry and resonant x-ray techniques we studied the magnetic proximity effect (MPE) in superlattices composed of superconducting YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_7$ (YBCO) and ferromagnetic-metallic (FM-M) La$_{0.67}$Ca$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$ (LCMO) or ferromagnetic-insulating (FM-I) LaMnO$_{3+delta}$ (LMO). We find that the MPE strongly depends on the electronic state of the manganite layers, being pronounced for the FM-M LCMO and almost absent for FM-I LMO. We also detail the change of the magnetic depth profile due to the MPE and provide evidence for its intrinsic nature.
We report on the measurement of the beam asymmetry $Sigma$ for the reactions $vec{gamma}prightarrow peta$ and $vec{gamma}p rightarrow peta^{prime}$ from the GlueX experiment, using an 8.2--8.8 GeV linearly polarized tagged photon beam incident on a liquid hydrogen target in Hall D at Jefferson Lab. These measurements are made as a function of momentum transfer $-t$, with significantly higher statistical precision than our earlier $eta$ measurements, and are the first measurements of $eta^{prime}$ in this energy range. We compare the results to theoretical predictions based on $t$--channel quasi-particle exchange. We also compare the ratio of $Sigma_{eta}$ to $Sigma_{eta^{prime}}$ to these models, as this ratio is predicted to be sensitive to the amount of $sbar{s}$ exchange in the production. We find that photoproduction of both $eta$ and $eta^{prime}$ is dominated by natural parity exchange with little dependence on $-t$.
