Local atomic and magnetic structure of multiferroic (Sr,Ba)⁢(Mn,Ti)⁢O 3

Here, we present a detailed study of the local atomic and magnetic structure of the type-I multiferroic perovskite system (Sr,Ba)(Mn,Ti)O 3 using x-ray and neutron pair distribution function (PDF) analysis, polarized neutron scattering, and muon spin relaxation (μSR) techniques. The atomic PDF analysis reveals widespread nanoscale tetragonal distortions of the crystal structure even in the paraelectric phase with average cubic symmetry, corresponding to incipient ferroelectricity in the local structure. Magnetic PDF analysis, polarized neutron scattering, and μSR likewise confirm the presence of short-range antiferromagnetic correlations in the paramagnetic state, which grow in magnitude as the temperature approaches the magnetic transition. We show that these short-range magnetic correlations coincide with a reduction of the tetragonal (i.e., ferroelectric) distortion in the average structure, suggesting that short-range magnetism can play an important role in magnetoelectric and/or magnetostructural phenomena even without genuine long-range magnetic order. The reduction of the tetragonal distortion scales linearly with the local magnetic order parameter, pointing to spontaneous linear magnetoelectric coupling in this system. These findings provide greater insight into the multiferroic properties of (Sr,Ba)(Mn,Ti)O 3 and demonstrate the importance of investigating the local atomic and magnetic structure to gain a deeper understanding of the intertwined degrees of freedom in multiferroics.

Pressure control of magnetic order and excitations in the pyrochlore antiferromagnet MgCr 2 ⁢O 4

MgCr 2 O 4 is one of the best-known realizations of the pyrochlore-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet. The strong antiferromagnetic exchange interactions are perturbed by small further-neighbor exchanges such that this compound may in principle realize a spiral spin liquid (SSL) phase in the zero-temperature limit. However, a spin Jahn-Teller transition below T N ≈ 13 K yields a complicated long-range magnetic order with multiple coexisting propagation vectors. We present neutron scattering and thermomagnetic measurements of MgCr 2 O 4 samples under applied hydrostatic pressure up to P = 1.7 GPa demonstrating the existence of multiple close-lying nearly degenerate magnetic ground states. We show that the application of hydrostatic pressure increases the ordering temperature by around 0.8 K per GPa and increases the bandwidth of the magnetic excitations by around 0.5 meV per GPa. We also evidence a strong tendency for the preferential occupation of a subset of magnetic domains under pressure. In particular, we show that the $k$ = (0,0,1) magnetic phase, which is almost negligible at ambient pressure, dramatically increases in spectral weight under pressure. This modifies the spectrum of magnetic excitations, which we interpret unambiguously as spin waves from multiple magnetic domains. Moreover, we report that the application of pressure reveals a feature in the magnetic susceptibility above the magnetostructural transition. We interpret this as the onset of a short-range ordered phase associated with $k$ = (0,0,1), previously not observed in magnetometry measurements.

Chiral Magnetism and High-Temperature Skyrmions in B20-Ordered Co-Si

Magnets with chiral crystal structures and helical spin structures have recently attracted much attention as potential spin-electronics materials, but their relatively low magnetic-ordering temperatures are a disadvantage. While cobalt has long been recognized as an element that promotes high-temperature magnetic ordering, most Co-rich alloys are achiral and exhibit collinear rather than helimagnetic order. Crystallographically, the B20-ordered compound CoSi is an exception due to its chiral structure, but it does not exhibit any kind of magnetic order. Here, we use nonequilibrium processing to produce B20-ordered Co 1+ x Si 1₋ x with a maximum Co solubility of x = 0.043. Above a critical excess-Co content x c = 0.028 ), the alloys are magnetically ordered, and for x = 0.043, a critical temperature $T_c$ = 328 K is obtained, the highest among all B20-type magnets. The crystal structure of the alloy supports spin spirals caused by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, and from magnetic measurements we estimate that the spirals have a periodicity of about 17 nm. In this work, our density-functional calculations explain the combination of high magnetic-ordering temperature and short periodicity in terms of a quantum phase transition where excess-cobalt spins are coupled through the host matrix.

Complex magnetic properties in the mixed 4 f - 5 d double perovskite iridates X 2 ZnIrO 6 ( X = Nd , Sm , Eu , Gd )

Here in this paper, we report on the synthesis and magnetic properties of a series of double perovskites Ln 2 ZnIrO 6 with Ln = Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd. These compounds present examples of the rare case of double perovskites (general formula A 2 BB'O6) with a magnetic 4ƒ-ion on the A site in combination with the strongly spin-orbit coupled 5d transition-metal ion Ir 4+ on the B sublattice. We discuss the impact of different rare earths on the macroscopic magnetic properties. Gd 2 ZnIrO 6 and Eu 2 ZnIrO 6 show ferrimagnetic or canted antiferromagnetic order below T N = 23 and 12 K, respectively. Sm 2 ZnIrO 6 orders antiferromagnetically at T N = 13 K. Nd 2 ZnIrO 6 exhibits more complex magnetic properties with a strong field dependence ranging from a two-step spin reorientation at μ 0 H = 0.01 T to an antiferromagnetic ground state at intermediate external fields to a spin-flop phase for 0H ≥ 4 T. This unique behavior suggests an interesting interplay between Nd 3+ and Ir 4+ . To further shed light on the relevant magnetic interaction, the zero-field magnetic ground state of Nd 2 ZnIrO 6 is examined via neutron powder diffraction. In general, the magnetic properties of Ln 2 ZnIrO 6 hint towards a substantial contribution of the rare-earth ions and a significant correlation between 5d and 4ƒ magnetism.

Frustrated magnetism in the layered triangular lattice materials K 2 Co(SeO 3 ) 2 and Rb 2 Co(SeO 3 ) 2

A study of the layered triangular lattice materials K 2 Co(SeO 3 ) 2 and Rb 2 Co(SeO 3 ) 2 is reported here. These isostructural compounds crystallize in the trigonal space group R-3m (No. 166). The magnetic Co 2+ ions form a spin-1/2 triangular lattice and display strongly frustrated magnetism. We find no evidence in the susceptibility or heat capacity for in-plane ordering of the spins; rather the in-plane inverse susceptibility is typical of that seen for frustrated magnets. At around 10 K, a ferromagnetic component appears in the magnetic susceptibility perpendicular to the triangular planes. The heat capacity at low applied fields does not show sharp features, but in larger applied fields a sharp ferromagneticlike transition appears. Field- and direction-dependent magnetization measurements at 2 K indicate that both materials have a magnetic easy axis perpendicular to the triangular planes. The magnetic properties are sensitive to the field applied perpendicular to the triangular planes, which induces a metamagnetization transition at 0.75 T. Spin polarization develops along with the increasing out-of-plane field, resulting in a saturated ferromagnetic state at high fields. In contrast, the magnetic properties are resistant to the in-plane field. Our results suggest that these materials are embodiments of Ising spins on triangular lattices with easy-axis anisotropy.

Machine learning-accelerated discovery of iron cobalt phosphides as rare-earth-free magnets

Here, the discovery of rare-earth-free permanent magnets has been a goal of scientists for decades. The absence of rare-earth elements will alleviate a pressing concern about the availability of rare-earth elements used in permanent magnets. These magnets are crucial for applications such as wind turbines, electric cars, and memory devices. Rare-earth magnets are special owing to a large magnetic anisotropy energy (K 1 ). In contrast, iron cobalt phosphides hold promise since doping P into cubic FeCo can induce anisotropy, leading to a large coercivity, without introducing rare-earth elements. We present a comprehensive search over the Fe-Co-P ternary space for magnets, utilizing recently developed adaptive machine learning feedback to efficiently screen over 850 000 structures. We focus on machine learning acceleration as a paradigm for materials design. Further adaptive genetic algorithm searches and first-principles calculations aid in the identification of 16 new structures below the known convex hull. Five of them possess high magnetic polarization (J s > 1 T). The structures with desirable magnetic properties center on (Fe,Co) 2⁢ P. This supports conventional wisdom, which focuses on the mixture of the two known end compounds: Fe 2 ⁢P and Co 2 ⁢P. Our work provides guidance for synthesis. We find Fe 7 ⁢CoP 4 shows the most promise (J s = 1.03T and K 1 = 0.83MJ/m 3 ).

Cleavable quaternary oxychlorides with high magnetic ordering temperatures

Quaternary oxychlorides derived from Ruddlesden–Popper 3d transition metal oxides offer a route to cleavable crystals with bulk antiferromagnetic ordering temperatures reaching at least 550 K. Here, we study the magnetic, optical, and mechanical behavior of Sr 2 FeO 3 Cl, Ca 2 FeO 3 Cl, Ca 3 Fe 2 O 5 Cl 2 , and Sr 3 Fe 2 O 5 Cl 2 . Through optical absorption measurements, we show that these antiferromagnetic semiconductors have optical band gaps of ≈2.1(1) eV. The magnetic ordering symmetries and temperatures were probed by neutron powder diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy on polycrystalline samples, demonstrating Néel temperatures (T N ) near room temperature in the single layer Sr 2 FeO 3 Cl (T N ≈ 311 K) and Ca 2 FeO 3 Cl (T N ≈ 360 K), and the double-layer compound Sr 3 Fe 2 O 5 Cl 2 has T N ≈ 545 K. The high-spin moments of Fe 3+ lie within the basal plane and the magnetic structures are compensated within each magnetic layer and characterized by magnetic propagation vectors k = ($\frac{1}{2}$ $\frac{1}{2}$ 0). Magnetization results demonstrate the quasi-2D nature of the magnetism, with a broad maximum in the susceptibility near 2T N for Sr 2 FeO 3 Cl. Scotch tape tests and mechanical exfoliation onto SiO 2 confirm the micaceous nature of these crystals with cleavage down to a single unit cell (two magnetic layers) achieved for Sr 3 Fe 2 O 5 Cl 2 . In conclusion, this paper highlights strong antiferromagnetic interactions, semiconducting band gaps, and cleavability of quaternary Fe-based oxychlorides and motivates future work on crystals and exfoliated flakes of these and related oxyhalide systems.

Growth-controlled twinning and magnetic anisotropy in CeSb 2

Cerium diantimonide (CeSb 2 ) is a layered heavy-fermion Kondo lattice material that hosts complex magnetism and pressure-induced superconductivity. The interpretation of its in-plane anisotropy has remained unsettled due to structural twinning, which superimposes orthogonal magnetic responses. Here, in this study, we combine controlled crystal growth with magnetization and rotational magnetometry to disentangle the effects of twinning. Nearly untwinned high-quality single crystals reveal the intrinsic in-plane anisotropy: The in-plane easy axis saturates at 𝑀 easy ⁡(4 T) ≈ 1.8 𝜇 B /Ce, while the in-plane hard axis magnetization is strongly suppressed, nearly linear, and comparable to the out-of-plane response. These results resolve long-standing discrepancies in reported magnetic measurements, in which in-plane metamagnetic transition fields and saturation magnetization varied significantly across previous studies. Growth experiments demonstrate that avoiding the proposed 𝛼 𝛽 structural transition—through Sb-rich flux and slower cooling—systematically reduces twinning. However, powder x-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis measurements show no clear evidence of a distinct 𝛽 phase. Our results establish a consistent magnetic phase diagram and provide essential constraints for crystal-electric field models, enabling a clearer understanding of the interplay between anisotropic magnetism and unconventional superconductivity in CeSb 2 .

Expansion-Driven Self-Magnetization of High-Energy-Density Plasmas

Understanding plasma self-magnetization is one of the fundamental challenges in both laboratory and astrophysical plasmas. Self-magnetization can modify plasma transport properties, altering the dynamical evolution of plasmas. Multiple high-energy-density (HED) experiments have observed the formation of ion-scale magnetic filaments of megagauss strength, though their origin remains debated. Here, in this study, we conduct 2D collisional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations with a laser ray-tracing module for a fully self-consistent simulation of the plasma ablation, expansion, and magnetization. The simulations use a planar geometry, effectively suppressing the Biermann magnetic fields, to focus on anisotropy-driven instabilities. The laser intensity is varied between 10 13 and 10 14 W/cm 2 , which is relevant to HED and inertial fusion experiments where collisions must be considered. We find that, above a critical intensity, the plasma rapidly self-magnetizes via an expansion-driven Weibel process, producing a plasma beta of 100 (𝛽 = 8⁢𝜋⁢𝑘 𝐵 ⁢𝑛 𝑒 ⁢𝑇 𝑒 /𝐵 2 ) and Hall parameter 𝜔 ce ⁢𝜏 𝑒 >1 within the first few hundred picoseconds. The magnetic field is sufficiently strong to modify plasma heat transport, and simulations with an artificially suppressed magnetic field show noticeably different temperature profiles.

Analysis and Experimental Testing of a New Type of Variable Stiffness Magnetic Spring with a Linear Stroke Length

In this paper a new type of variable stiffness magnetic spring is proposed. The magnetic spring is composed of radially magnetized outer rotor magnets coupled with axially magnetized inner cylindrical magnets. It is shown that this magnet arrangement creates a highly linear stroke length. By rotating the inner magnetic rotor, the stiffness of the spring can be adjusted. The force as a function of stroke length and torque required to adjust the stiffness were computed using finite element analysis and then verified using an experimental test setup.

Superconducting Magnet Qualification Methodology for the Material Plasma Exposure Experiment

The Material Plasma Exposure eXperiment (MPEX), currently under design, is a new linear plasma device to advance the understanding of plasma-material interactions through the generation and delivery of plasmas as they are expected in future fusion reactor divertors. MPEX will be a steady-state device to study high-fluence exposures of plasma-facing materials and components. The requirements for the magnetic field at the target and the heating stages make the application of superconducting coils necessary. Conceptual designs for the superconducting magnets have been developed, and multiple cryostats with warm bore diameters of either 65 cm or 156 cm are envisioned to facilitate their integrated and timely assembly with other systems such as vacuum, water cooling, and RF power. Although design, fabrication, and testing for the magnets as stand-alone units are straightforward, challenges will arise during the integration of the system. Two different field profiles will be used during operation. The magnetic field where the electron cyclotron heating occurs needs to operate at both 1.25 and 2.5 T. It is critical that the magnets all share the same magnetic axis and alignment. The mutual inductance between cryostats will affect the quench behavior of the system. Also, cryostat-to-cryostat forces can be as large as 700 kN, and the magnitude and direction will change depending on which coils are energized. The design of the system must take those characteristics into account along with the quench scenarios. This paper describes the qualification approach that will be used to determine whether stand-alone tests can be used to ensure the success of the integrated system. Fiducials will be used to define the location of the magnetic axis for each cryostat to ensure proper alignment. Quench tests of a single magnet will be performed at a current above the normal operating current to account for additional stored energy from the mutual inductance to adjacent cryostats. Also, a 1018 steel plate will be mounted on either end of a cryostat to simulate the cryostat-to-cryostat forces. Requirements for the size and location of the steel plates are described.

Design Study of a Superconducting Quadrupole Magnet System Sustainable Under Dark Current Heating in ILC Main Linac

The International Linear Collider (ILC) main linac comprises a series of 12 m-long cryomodules. The cryomodule contains eight 9-cell superconducting (SC) RF (SRF) cavities and an SC quadrupole magnet combined with dipole correctors to focus and steer electron and positron beams. The magnets are installed between the SRF cavity string and at the longitudinal center of a common cryomodule/cryostat. These magnets are conductively cooled by pure aluminum channels thermally connected to a 2 K two-phase helium pipe for cooling the SRF cavities. A recent study shows that field-emitted electrons, so-called “dark current” initiated in the SRF cavities, are transmitted through the SRF cavity string and reach the SC magnet. The energy is inevitably absorbed in the SC coil due to the magnetic field, resulting in risks of a quench caused by the coil heating. We are investigating alternate magnet designs by using Nb $_{3}$ Sn or $\text{MgB}_{2}$ SC and by adding the dark current absorber surrounding the beam-pipe to realize sustainable magnet operation under the dark current heating. We report the design study of the magnet system and interfaces to the cryomodule accommodating it with the SRF cavities.

FEM Analysis of Hybrid LTS/HTS Cos-Theta Dipole Magnet With Heterogeneous Cable Model

The Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) and the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) have published results on Bi-2212 superconductive magnets realized and tested in the canted cosine-theta and solenoid designs, respectively. Fermilab is now preparing for the assembly of the first Bi-2212 stress-managed cosine-theta insert magnet. The insert will be part of the first hybrid cosine-theta magnet made of Nb$_3$Sn outer layers within the US-MDP effort to reach a 20 T bore field. This paper presents the analytical analysis of the cosine-theta Nb$_3$Sn/Bi-2212 hybrid magnet. We report the parameters, logic, and implementation method of the 2D electromagnetic and mechanical FEM analysis of the LTS/HTS hybrid magnet. Results from a detailed heterogeneous model are compared to the homogeneous model implemented in the past. A Python code has been developed to simulate the current degradation due to stresses in the detail-modeled conductor areas. The current degradation has been introduced in the simulation dynamics for the HTS conductor as an iteration process, updating the input load of Lorentz forces of the energization at each step. The magnetic and mechanical analysis results of the 2D cosine-theta LTS/HTS dipole magnet have been described and analyzed.

Persistent Current Simulation for CCT Testing Magnet Used in EIC

The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), a powerful new facility to be built in the United States at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory in collaboration with Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, will explore the most fundamental building blocks of nearly all visible matter. Here, there are many different types of superconducting magnets near the interaction region (IR) of EIC. Due to space constraints and special lattice requirements, Tapered CCT (canted-cosine theta) magnets have been used for EIC. At beam injection, the magnetic field is only ~5.5% of the maximum operating field. Considerable field errors will be generated from persistent current in superconducting strands even using very fine filament for those superconductors. A tapered CCT demonstrator magnet has been built and tested successfully at BNL since July 2020 to evaluate the key technologies for future tapered CCT magnets. In October 2023, BNL team also measured the persistent current in this demonstrator magnet. To validate the persistent current simulation methods for CCT magnets in EIC, this paper used a full 3D Opera Model and measured magnetization data from superconducting strand for the simulation. Simulation results showed reasonable agreement with recent measurement results.

Elliptic Aperture CCT Coils for HTS Dipole Magnets

High-temperature REBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7-x}$ (REBCO) superconductors are a route to increase the field of accelerator magnets beyond the 15-16T practical limit of Nb$_{3}$Sn. REBCO cabled in a CORC geometry is a promising fit for this application, enabling the design of low inductance magnets with conductor transposition. However, the use of CORC in coils with the tight conductor bending radii typical of accelerator magnets remains a key challenge, with on-going research both on the conductor development and coil design fronts seeking to address this issue. Here, in this work we explore the tradeoffs between circular and elliptic aperture canted-cosine-theta (CCT) coils when the conductor minimum bending radius is a key consideration, concluding that aperture ellipticity is an important free parameter in the optimization of magnetically efficient CORC dipole magnets. In particular, we show that elliptic bore designs enable a regime of smaller aperture HTS coils, an important result for LTS-HTS hybrid magnets and more generally for accelerator applications benefiting from non-circular magnet apertures. To this end we present an elliptic aperture dipole design optimized for hybrid testing within the US Magnet Development Program (US-MDP) and share 77 K test results of a prototype coil which provides first experimental confirmation of the advantages.

The High Rigidity Spectrometer at the FRIB: Magnet Development Status

This paper presents the 2025 progress of the High Rigidity Spectrometer (HRS) project at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). We report on the construction and testing of the first-article HRS-High Transmission BeamLine (HTBL) magnets. An HTBL dipole magnet has successfully completed cold testing, achieving full magnetic performance without quenching, and is now ready for field mapping at FRIBs offline test bench. HTBL quadrupole triplet coils have been fabricated and tested, with all coils reaching their design currents, some following initial training quenches. Furthermore, the preliminary design of the large-scale, large-aperture SPectrometer Section (SPS) magnets has progressed to determine the baseline of the downstream HRS-SPS subproject in 2025. This includes the introduction of novel magnet designs, such as the sweeper dipole magnet, the sector dipole magnet, and iron-free coil-dominated quadrupole magnets, representing a significant scale breakthrough and a first for FRIB.

Mechanical Design of the PIP-II ORBUMP Pulsed Dipole Magnet

The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) project is a vital upgrade to the Fermilab accelerator complex. The magnet pulse rate of the PIP-II Injection system requires an increase from the current rate of 15 Hz to 20 Hz as well as a roughly 30% increase in the magnetic field of the new Orbital Bump (ORBUMP) pulsed dipole magnets in the Booster. Here, the ORBUMP magnet mechanical design is presented in this paper. The ORBUMP magnet is secured in a vacuum box and the core is made up of 0.127 mm thick, low carbon steel laminations with a C-5 inorganic magnesium phosphate coating. The core is clamped using external tie bars welded to the core end plates. ANSYS Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was used to evaluate the clamping design to minimize the deflection of the core post welding of the tie bars. The water-cooled, single turn coil, which shapes the magnetic field by acting as the pole tips, is critical for the integrated field homogeneity. The coil manufacturing tolerances and fabrication techniques were evaluated to ensure the magnetic properties of the magnet could be obtained. The coil is electrically isolated from the core using virgin Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) insulating material in the gap. An investigation into the high voltage performance of the virgin PEEK insulator was conducted via partial discharge testing using a 1:1 scale sample.

Experimental Investigation of the Effects of Magnetic Mirrors on Plasma Transport in the Prototype Material Plasma Exposure Experiment

The Prototype Material Plasma Exposure eXperiment (Proto-MPEX) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory is developing a helicon radio frequency (RF) source for plasma production along with microwave electron heating and RF ion heating. Proto-MPEX has several magnetic mirrors that affect plasma transport. The magnetic field near the helicon source is ~ 0.05 T, and the peak magnetic field in Proto-MPEX is ~ 1.8 T, which results in a large magnetic well for particles sourced at the helicon transporting toward the target region. Keeping the helicon source field and the target field constant, experiments have been conducted by methodically changing the magnetic field, at a local axial location, within the source and the target. Plasma flow measurements using Mach probes have shown a decrease in the flow as a function of the magnetic mirror ratio. Plasma flows were further investigated with ion cyclotron resonant heating (ICH). Results with the addition of ICH measured upstream of the antenna have shown a decrease in Mach number as a function of mirror ratio when compared to helicon discharges. Such flow behavior demonstrated slowing down of the plasma due to the increased reverse plasma flow toward the helicon plasma source. However, in high magnetic fields, when the resonant magnetic field moved away from the ICH antenna, no effects on the plasma flow due to ICH were observed.
