Electron Spin Relaxation Induced by a Cantilever when the Spin Frequency Matches the Cantilever Frequency

We study the electron spin relaxation induced by a high frequency nanomechanical cantilever with an attached ferromagnetic particle in a situation when the spin Larmor frequency matches the cantilever frequency. We consider a situation when the spin-cantilever system is described by the Jaynes-Cumming model. We have obtained an analytical solution describing the spin relaxation caused by the spin-cantilever interaction. Based on these results, we suggest a “spin thermometer” which could measure the temperature of nanomechanical cantilevers.

Two-component axionic dark matter halos

We consider a two-component dark matter halo (DMH) of a galaxy containing ultra-light axions (ULA) of different mass. The DMH is described as a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) in its ground state. In the mean-field (MF) limit, we have derived the integro-differential equations for the spherically symmetrical wave functions of the two DMH components. We studied, numerically, the radial distribution of the mass density of ULA and constructed the parameters which could be used to distinguish between the two- and one-component DMH. Here, we also discuss an interesting connection between the BEC ground state of a one-component DMH and Black Hole temperature and entropy, and Unruh temperature.

Axionic dark matter halos in the gravitational field of baryonic matter

We consider a dark matter halo (DMH) of a spherical galaxy as a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) of the ultra-light axions (ULA) interacting with the baryonic matter. In the mean-field (MF) limit, we have derived the integro-differential equation of the Hartree–Fock type for the spherically symmetrical wave function of the DMH component. This equation includes two independent dimensionless parameters: (i) β is the ratio of baryon and axion total mases and (ii) ξ is the ratio of characteristic baryon and axion spatial parameters. We extended our “dissipation algorithm” for studying numerically the ground state of the axion halo in the gravitational field produced by the baryonic component. We calculated the characteristic size, x c of DMH as a function of β and ξ and obtained an analytical approximation for x c .
