Magnetic trapping of neutral particles: Classical and Quantum-mechanical study of a Ioffe-Pritchard type trap
S. Gov, S. Shtrikman, H. Thomas
Recently, we developed a method for calculating the lifetime of a particle inside a magnetic trap with respect to spin flips, as a first step in our efforts to understand the quant…
How High Can The U-CAS Fly?
Shahar Gov, Shmuel Shtrikman
The U-CAS is a spinning magnetized top that is levitated in a static magnetic field. The field is produced by a permanent magnet base, positioned below the hovering top. In this pa…
Magnetic Trapping of Neutral Particles: A Study of a Physically Realistic Model
S. Gov, S. Shtrikman, H. Thomas
We study, both classically and quantum-mechanically, the problem of a neutral particle with spin S, mass m and magnetic moment mue, moving in two-dimensions in an inhomogeneous mag…
1D Toy Model For Trapping Neutral Particles
S. Gov, S. Shtrikman, H. Thomas
We study, both classically and quantum-mechanically, the problem of a neutral particle with spin, moving in one-dimension in an inhomogeneous magnetic field. This problem serves fo…
On the Spinning Motion of the Hovering Magnetic Top
P. Flanders, S. Gov, S. Shtrikman +1
In this paper we analyze the spinning motion of the hovering magnetic top. We have observed that its motion looks different from that of a classical top. A classical top rotates ab…
