Size and temperature dependent magnetization of iron nanoclusters
G. Dos Santos, R. Aparicio, D. Linares +4
The magnetic behavior of bcc iron nanoclusters, with diameters between 2 and 8 nm, is investigated by means of spin dynamics (SD) simulations coupled to molecular dynamics (MD-SD),…
Schrödinger and Planck oscillators: not quite the same physics
Enrique N. Miranda
In the statistical mechanics of quantum harmonic oscillators, the zero-point energy can either be included (Schrödinger oscillators) or omitted (Planck oscillators). For the usual…
How good is the Debye model for nanocrystals ?
Enrique N. Miranda, G. Mora Barzaga
The question here is whether the Debye model is suited to evaluate the specific heat of nanocrystals. For this, the simplest possible nanocrystal is considered: a basic cubic struc…
The Einstein nanocrystal
D. S. Bertoldi, A. Fernández Guillermet, E. N. Miranda
We study the simplest possible model of nanocrystal consisting in a simple cubic lattice with a small number of atoms (NA ~ 10-10^3), where each atom is linked to its nearest neigh…
Thermostatistics of small systems: Exact results in the microcanonical formalism
E. N. Miranda, Dalia S. Bertoldi
Several approximations are made to study the microcanonical formalism that are valid in the thermodynamics limit. Usually it is assumed that: 1)Stirling approximation can be used t…
Entropy production by simple electrical circuits
E. N. Miranda, S. Nikolskaia
The entropy production by simple electrical circuits (R, RC, RL) is analyzed. It comes out that the entropy production is minimal, in agreement with a well known theorem due to Pri…
