We predict the existence of a torque acting on an isotropic neutral nanosphere activated by a static magnetic field when the particle temperature differs from the surrounding vacuum. This phenomenon originates in time-reversal symmetry breaking of the particle interaction with the vacuum electromagnetic field. We present a rigorous quantum treatment of photons and particle excitations that leads to a nonzero torque even in a motionless particle. We also find that the dynamical evolution of the particle temperature and rotation frequency follow an exotic dynamics, including spontaneous changes in the rotation direction. Magnetically activated thermal vacuum torques open a unique avenue for the investigation of the effect of time-reversal symmetry-breaking in thermal and Casimir physics.

A spin-dependent emission of optically oriented electrons from p-GaAs(Cs,O) into vacuum was experimentally observed in a magnetic field normal to the surface. This phenomenon is explained within the model which takes into account the jump in the elec
tron g factor at the semiconductor-vacuum interface. Due to this jump, the effective electron affinity on the semiconductor surface depends on the mutual direction of optically oriented electron spins and the magnetic field, resulting in the spin-dependent photoemission. It is demonstrated that the observed effect can be used for the determination of spin diffusion length in semiconductors.
The analysis of uniformly longitudinally extended detector is performed and it is shown that the response of such a detector does not differ from the response of the Unruh detector, but the its excitation is caused not by the thermal bath, but by int
eraction with the fluctuations of the quantum field by virtual quanta.
The magneto-rotational instability (MRI) is the most likely mechanism for transportation of angular momentum and dissipation of energy within hot, ionized accretion discs. This instability is produced through the interactions of a differentially rota
ting plasma with an embedded magnetic field. Like all substances in nature, the plasma in an accretion disc has the potential to become magnetically polarized when it interacts with the magnetic field. In this paper, we study the effect of this magnetic susceptibility, parameterized by $chi_m$, on the MRI, specifically within the context of black hole accretion. We find from a linear analysis within the Newtonian limit that the minimum wavelength of the first unstable mode and the wavelength of the fastest growing mode are shorter in paramagnetic ($chi_m>0$) than in diamagnetic ($chi_m<0$) discs, all other parameters being equal. Furthermore, the magnetization parameter (ratio of gas to magnetic pressure) in the saturated state should be smaller when the magnetic susceptibility is positive than when it is negative. We confirm this latter prediction through a set of numerical simulations of magnetically polarized black hole accretion discs. We additionally find that the vertically integrated stress and mass accretion rate are somewhat larger when the disc is paramagnetic than when it is diamagnetic. If astrophysical discs are able to become magnetically polarized to any significant degree, then our results would be relevant to properly interpreting observations.
Nonlinear solid friction between the gel matrix and DNA molecules inhibits the motion of DNA during electrophoresis. We report enhanced mobility of the DNA using external noise to alleviate the effect of solid friction. In presence of noise, the mobi
lity of 1 kbp DNA increases ~ 86% compared to the conventional gel electrophoresis, whereas the increment is more than ~113 % for 6 kbp DNA. At low power of the noise, super Arrhenius kinetics suggest the collective behavior of the activated motion of DNA molecules. Stochastic simulation following modified Langevin equation with the asymmetric pore size distribution of the agarose gel successfully predicts the mobility of DNA molecules and estimates the huge frictional force at the DNA-gel matrix interface.
We present particulate simulation results for translational and rotational friction components of a shish-kebab model of a colloidal rod with aspect ratio (length over diameter) $L/D = 10$ in the presence of a planar hard wall. Hydrodynamic interacti
ons between rod and wall cause an overall enhancement of the friction tensor components. We find that the friction enhancements to reasonable approximation scale inversely linear with the closest distance $d$ between the rod surface and the wall, for $d$ in the range between $D/8$ and $L$. The dependence of the wall-induced friction on the angle $theta$ between the long axis of the rod and the normal to the wall is studied and fitted with simple polynomials in $cos theta$.
