Solar influence on terrestrial weather and global lightning patterns via cosmic ray modulations
A series of cosmic ray neutron monitor data which were used in three analyses: (1) solar activity influence on ionization of the upper troposphere and tropopause; (2) solar activity influence on Canadian high stratus in winter; and (3) the S3-4 satellite study of IMF/GMF magnetic coupling effects are reported. The magnetic coupling model of solar activity influence on atmospheric processes were investigated. The magnetic coupling model is used to explain a number of seemingly diverse studies lightning incidence is emphasized.

Atomically Resolved Acoustic Dynamics Coupled with Magnetic Order in a Van der Waals Antiferromagnet
Magnetoelastic coupling in van der Waals (vdW) magnetic materials enables a unique interplay between the spin and lattice degrees of freedom. Characterizing the elastic responses with atomic and femtosecond resolution across the magnetic transition is essential for guiding the design of magnetically tunable actuators and strain-mediated spintronic devices. Here, ultrafast X-ray diffraction employed at a free-electron laser reveals that the atomic displacements, wave vectors, and dispersion relations of acoustic phonon modes in a vdW antiferromagnet FePS3 are coupled with the magnetic order, by tracking both in-plane and out-of-plane Bragg peaks upon optical excitation across the Néel temperature (TN). One transverse mode shows that a quasi-out-of-plane atomic displacement undergoes a significant directional change across TN. Its quasi-in-plane wave vector is derived by comparing the measured sound velocity and the first-principles calculations. The other transverse mode is an interlayer shear acoustic mode whose amplitude is strongly enhanced in the antiferromagnetic phase, exhibiting eight times stronger amplitude than the longitudinal acoustic mode below TN. The atomically resolved characterization of acoustic phonon dynamics that couple with magnetic ordering opens opportunities for harnessing unique magnetoelastic coupling in vdW magnets on ultrafast timescales.

Coupling of magnetism, crystal lattice, and transport in EuCuP and EuCuAs
EuCuP and EuCuAs are members of a family of materials with candidates for realizing magnetically tuned electronic topology. Here, in this work, the magnetic phase transitions and magnetoelastic coupling of EuCuP and EuCuAs have been investigated. Around the Curie temperature, the thermal expansion coefficient and specific-heat capacity of EuCuP are found to have two closely spaced features, at approximately 30 and 31.3 K, which may indicate a cascading magnetic transition or perhaps an electronic transition closely coupled to the magnetic ordering. The zero-field magnetoelastic coupling appears to be stronger in EuCuP than in EuCuAs, and field-dependent measurements suggest this is due to the dominant ferromagnetic interaction in EuCuP as opposed to antiferromagnetic order in EuCuAs below T N =13.5 K. Thermal expansion is anisotropic around T N in EuCuAs, with a maximum expansion along [001] occurring above T N prior to a stiffening of this c -axis component on cooling through T N ; the expansion of the basal plane has a lambda-like peak centered slightly above T N . Matching these behaviors, the ac susceptibility data for EuCuAs suggest the presence of strong ferromagnetic correlations above T N in the vicinity where the c-axis expansion peaks. Both compounds possess similar electrical and thermoelectric transport behaviors, with short-range magnetic order likely playing an important role above T C or T N . Transport properties suggest these are predominantly hole doped due to intrinsic defects, and narrow-gap semiconducting or semimetallic behavior may be achievable if the underlying defects can be tuned.

C/NOFS Observations of Electromagnetic Coupling Between Magnetically Conjugate MSTID Structures
This report demonstrates empirically that couplings between magnetically conjugate medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbances (MSTIDs) are electromagnetic in nature. This is accomplished by comparing plasma density, electric, and magnetic perturbations sampled simultaneously by sensors on the Communication Navigation Outage Forecasting System (CNOFS) satellite. During the period of interest on 17 February 2010, CNOFS made three consecutive orbits while magnetically conjugate to the field of view of an all-sky imager located at El Leoncito, Argentina (31.8degS, 69.3degW). Imaged 630.0 nm airglow was characterized by alternating bands of relatively bright and dark emissions that were aligned from northeast to southwest and propagated toward the northwest, characteristic of MSTIDs in the southern hemisphere. Measurable Poynting fluxes flow along the Earths magnetic field (S) from generator to load hemispheres. While S was predominantly away from the ionosphere above El Leoncito, interhemispheric energy flows were not one-way streets. Measured Poynting flux intensities diminished with time over the three CNOFS passes, suggesting that source mechanisms of MSTIDs were absent or that initial impedance mismatches between the two hemispheres approached an equilibrium status.

Study of Self-Interaction Errors in Density Functional Calculations of Magnetic Exchange Coupling Constants Using Three Self-Interaction Correction Methods
We examine the role of self-interaction errors (SIE) removal on the evaluation of magnetic exchange coupling constants. In particular we analyze the effect of scaling down the self-interaction-correction (SIC) for three non-empirical density functional approximations (DFAs) namely, the local spin density approximation, the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof generalized gradient approximation, and recent SCAN family of meta-GGA functionals. To this end, we employ three one-electron SIC methods: Perdew-Zunger [Perdew, J. P.; Zunger, A. Phys. Rev. B, 1981, 23, 5048] SIC, the orbitalwise scaled SIC method [Vydrov, O. A. et al., J. Chem. Phys. 2006, 124, 094108], and the recent local scaling method [Zope, R. R. et al., J. Chem. Phys. 2019, 151, 214108]. We compute the magnetic exchange coupling constants using the spin projection and non projection approaches for sets of molecules composed of dinuclear and polynuclear H-He models, organic radical molecules, and chlorocuprate, and compare these results against accurate theories and experiment. Our results show that for the systems that mainly consist of single electron regions, PZSIC performs well but for more complex organic systems and the chlorcuprates, an overcorrecting tendency of PZSIC combined with the DFAs utilized in this work is more pronounced, and in such cases LSIC with kinetic energy density ratio performs better than PZSIC. Furthermore, analysis of the results in terms of SIC corrections to the density and to the total energy shows that both density and energy correction are required to obtain an improved prediction of magnetic exchange couplings.

Phase diagram of magnetic shape memory alloy Ni 50 Mn $50–x$ In $x$ , 0 < $x$ , 25 from first principles, via spin cluster expansion and phonon vibrational entropies
The metamagnetic shape memory Heusler alloy Ni 50 Mn $50–x$ In $x$ exhibits a rich phase diagram featuring competing magnetic states, coupled magnetic–structural phase transitions, and strong compositional sensitivity. Existing first-principles approaches struggletocapturetheintertwinedchemical, magnetic, andvibrationaleffectsinthesealloys, necessitating a more integrated modeling framework. We develop a spin cluster expansion (spin-CE) framework augmented by a quasi-harmonic phonon model to capture both configurational (chemical and magnetic) and vibrational contributions to the free energy of Ni 50 Mn $50–x$ In $x$ over the full compositional range 0 ≤ x ≤25. The spin-CE includes both chemical clusters and composition-dependent Ising spin interactions, with parameters fit to a first-principles density functional theory (DFT) dataset. Using this approach, we predict the complete magnetostructural phase diagram and transformation temperatures of Ni 50 Mn $50–x$ In $x$ across the composition space. We find that vibrational entropy alone is insufficient to reproduce the martensitic transformation in the magnetic shape memory alloy regime, highlighting the essential role of magnetism. Incorporating both magnetic and vibrational contributions allows us to reproduce all experimentally known phases, including the disappearance of the stable martensite phase at a critical In concentration and the Curie temperature of the austenite phase. The method also captures the transition with increasing In in martensite from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic order and predicts re-entrant ferromagnetism, though the latter occurs at higher In content than reported experimentally. We discuss possible sources of this discrepancy and highlight the broader applicability of the method to other magnetostructurally complex materials, where it may offer mechanistic insight and predictive design capabilities.

Multiwavelength study of the magnetically active T Tauri star HD 283447
We observed the luminous T Tauri star HD 283447 = V773 Tauri simultaneously at X-ray, ultraviolet, optical photometric and spectroscopic, and radio wavelengths for several hours on UT 1992 September 11. ROSAT, IUE, Very Large Array (VLA) and an intercontinental Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) network, and three optical observatories participated in the campaign. The star is known for its unusually high and variable nonthermal radio continuum emission. High levels of soft X-ray and Mg II line emission are discovered, with luminosity L(sub x) = 5.5 x 10(exp 30) ergs/s (0.2 - 2 keV) and L(sub Mg II) = 1 x 10(exp 29) ergs/s, respectively. Optically, the spectrum exhibits rather weak characteristics of `classical' T Tauri stars. A faint, broad emission line component, probably due to a collimated wind or infall, is present. During the campaign, the radio luminosity decreased by a factor of 4, while optical/UV lines and X-ray emission remained strong but constant. The large gyrosynchrotron-emitting regions are therefore decoupled from the chromospheric and coronal emission. Five models for the magnetic geometry around the star are discussed; solar-type activity, dipole magnetosphere, star-disk magnetic coupling, disk magnetic fields, and close binary interaction. The data suggest that two magnetic geometries are simultaneously present: complex multipolar fields like those on the Sun, and a large-scale field possibly associated with the circumstellar disk.

Coupling between magnetic order and charge transport in a two-dimensional magnetic semiconductor
Semiconductors, featuring tunable electrical transport, and magnets, featuring tunable spin configurations, form the basis of many information technologies. A long-standing challenge has been to realize materials that integrate and connect these two distinct properties. Two-dimensional (2D) materials offer a platform to realize this concept, but known 2D magnetic semiconductors are electrically insulating in their magnetic phase. In this work, we demonstrate tunable electron transport within the magnetic phase of the 2D semiconductor CrSBr and reveal strong coupling between its magnetic order and charge transport. This provides an opportunity to characterize the layer-dependent magnetic order of CrSBr down to the monolayer via magnetotransport. Exploiting the sensitivity of magnetoresistance to magnetic order, we uncover a second regime characterized by coupling between charge carriers and magnetic defects. The magnetoresistance within this regime can be dynamically and reversibly tuned by varying the carrier concentration using an electrostatic gate, providing a mechanism for controlling charge transport in 2D magnets.

Spin–Phonon Coupling and Magnetic Transition in an Organic Molecule Intercalated Cr 2 Ge 2 Te 6
The manipulation of spin–phonon coupling in both formations and explorations of magnetism in two-dimensional van der Waals ferromagnetic semiconductors facilitates unprecedented prospects for spintronic devices. The interlayer engineering with spin–phonon coupling promises controllable magnetism via organic cation intercalation. Here, in this study, spectroscopic evidence reveals the intercalation effect on the intrinsic magnetic and electronic transitions in quasi-two-dimensional Cr 2 Ge 2 Te 6 using tetrabutyl ammonium (TBA + ) as the intercalant. The temperature evolution of Raman modes, E g 3 and A g 1 , along with the magnetization measurements, unambiguously captures the enhancement of the ferromagnetic Curie temperature in the intercalated heterostructure. Moreover, the E g 4 mode highlights the increased effect of spin–phonon interaction in magnetic-order-induced lattice distortion. Combined with the first-principle calculations, we observed a substantial number of electrons transferred from TBA + to Cr through the interface. The interplay between spin–phonon coupling and magnetic ordering in van der Waals magnets appeals for further understanding of the manipulation of magnetism in layered heterostructures.

Ultrafast Control of Interfacial Exchange Coupling in Ferromagnetic Bilayer
Fast spin manipulation in magnetic heterostructures, where magnetic interactions between different materials often define the functionality of devices, is a key issue in the development of ultrafast spintronics. Although recently developed optical approaches such as ultrafast spin-transfer and spin–orbit torques open new pathways to fast spin manipulation, these processes do not fully utilize the unique possibilities offered by interfacial magnetic coupling effects in ferromagnetic multilayer systems. Here, ultrafast optically controlled interfacial exchange interactions in the ferromagnetic Co 2 FeAl/(Ga,Mn)As system at low laser fluence levels are experimentally demonstrated. The excitation efficiency of Co 2 FeAl with the (Ga,Mn)As layer is 30–40 times higher than the case with the GaAs layer at 5 K due to the modification of exchange coupling interaction via photoexcited charge transfer between the two ferromagnetic layers. In addition, the coherent spin precessions persist to room temperature, excluding the drive of pump-modulated magnetization in the (Ga,Mn)As layer and indicating a proximity-effect-related optical excitation mechanism. The results highlight the importance of interfacial exchange interactions in ferromagnetic heterostructures and how these magnetic coupling effects can be utilized for ultrafast, low-power spin manipulation.

Probing antiferromagnetic coupling in magnetic insulator/metal heterostructures
Using depth- and element-resolved characterization, we report insights into antiferromagnetic coupling in Y 3 Fe 5 O 12 /permalloy (YIG/Py) and Y 3 Fe 5 O 12 /Co (YIG/Co) thin-film heterostructures grown on Si/SiO 2 and Gd 3 Ga 5 O 12 substrates. We build on recent work demonstrating antiferromagnetic coupling in polycrystalline YIG/metallic-ferromagnetic systems by characterizing differences in the structural and magnetic properties which depend on the choice of ferromagnet (Py vs Co), seed layer (with and without Pt), and substrate (Si/SiO 2 vs Gd 3 Ga 5 O 12 ). These differences in the sample structure manifest as notable changes in interface coupling sign, magnetic reversal mechanisms, magnetic depth profiles, and domain structure. Through a combination of magnetometry, polarized neutron reflectometry, and x-ray photoemission electron microscopy, a comprehensive picture of the magnetic interactions is realized, with lateral- and depth resolution at submicrometer and nanometer scales, respectively. These results confirm that both Co and Py share a preference to align antiparallel to polycrystalline YIG grown on some substrates (Si/SiO 2 and Si/SiO 2 /Pt), while coupling ferromagnetically with highly oriented YIG on (111) Gd 3 Ga 5 O 12 and (110) Gd 3 Ga 5 O 12 /Pt substrates. The complex interplay among magnetic interactions at the YIG/ferromagnetic interface has important implications for spintronic and magnonic devices based on this platform.

Visualizing Electric and Magnetic Field Coupling in Au-Nanorod Trimer Structures via Stimulated Electron Energy Gain and Cathodoluminescence Spectroscopy: Implications for Meta-Atom Imaging
In this work, trimer meta-atoms composed of three gold rods in an equilateral triangular geometry were fabricated, and their near-field plasmonic responses were characterized via electron energy loss (EEL), cathodoluminescence (CL), and stimulated electron energy loss/gain (sEEL/sEEG) spectroscopy. The trimer structure hybridizes into a low-energy mode with all three rods coupling in-phase, which produces a circulating current and thus a magnetic field. The next highest-energy mode consists of two rods coupling out-of-phase and produces a net electric dipole. We investigate the near fields of hybridized magnetic and electric modes via EEL and CL and correlate their spectral characteristics and intensity maps. Then, by changing the length of the trimer rods, we tune the magnetic and electric modes to our laser energy and characterize the excited state via sEEL/sEEG spectroscopy. Exploration of the tilt dependence, relative to the optical source, of the two modes reveals that the electric mode sEEG intensity increases more than the expected sin 2 (θ) dependence of the optical electric field coupling (see the Supporting Information for a detailed description). After correcting for the tail of the close-proximity electric mode, we demonstrate sEEG via coupling of the magnetic component of the optical field to the magnetic meta-atoms, which has the expected cos 2 (θ) tilt dependence. This realization opens the possibility to explore the nanoscale excited-state near-field imaging of other magnetic meta-atom structures.

Three-axis force actuator for a magnetic bearing
This invention features a three-axis force actuator that axially, radially and rotatably supports a bearing member for frictionless rotation about an axis of rotation generally coincident with a Z-axis. Also featured is a magnetic bearing having such an actuator. The actuator includes an inner member, a magnetic member and a pole assembly having a ring member and four pole extending therefrom. The poles are equi-angular spaced from each other and radially spaced about the Z-axis. The inner member extends along the Z-axis and is a highly magnetic permeable material. The magnetic member is formed about the inner member outer surface, extends along the Z-axis and is configured so one magnetic pole polarity is located at its outer surface and the other polarity pole is located at its inner surface. Preferably, the magnetic member is a radially magnetized permanent magnet. The inner surface of the ring member is magnetically coupled to the magnetic member and a face of each pole is coupled to the bearing member. The magnetic member, the pole assembly, the inner member and the bearing member cooperate to generate a magnetic field that radially and rotatably supports a rotating member secured to the bearing member. The actuator further includes a plurality of electromagnetic coils. Preferably, a coil is formed about each pole and at least 2 coils are formed about the inner member. When energized, the electromagnetic coils generate a modulated magnetic field that stabilizes the rotating member in the desired operational position.

Magnetic capture docking mechanism
A mechanism uses a magnetic field to dock a satellite to a host vehicle. A docking component of the mechanism residing on the host vehicle has a magnet that is used to induce a coupled magnetic field with a docking component of the mechanism residing on the satellite. An alignment guide axially aligns the docking component of the satellite with the docking component of the host device dependent on the coupled magnetic field. Rotational alignment guides are used to rotationally align the docking component of the satellite with the docking component of the host device. A ball-lock mechanism is used to mechanically secure the docking component of the host vehicle and the docking component of the satellite.
