Symmetry analysis of magnetoelectric interactions in rare-earth orthoferrites and orthochromites has been performed. It has been shown that symmetry allows the appearance of spontaneous electric polarization or the magnetic-field-induced polarization in the region of antiferromagnetic (centro-asymmetric) ordering of t…

The electronic effects of H atoms at interstitial sites in ZnO have been investigated by high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS). A reversible doping is achieved by exposing single crystalline (0001)-oriented ZnO substrates to atomic hydrogen. At low temperatures, interstitial H atoms form shallow d…

In this paper partial discharges (PD) in disc-shaped cavities in polycarbonate are measured at variable frequency (0.01-100 Hz) of the applied voltage. The advantage of PD measurements at variable frequency is that more information about the insulation system may be extracted than from traditional PD measurements at a…

The shape of a weightless spinning liquid droplet is governed by the balance between the surface tension and centrifugal forces. The axisymmetric shape for slow rotation becomes unstable to a nonaxisymmetric distortion above a critical angular velocity, beyond which the droplet progresses through a series of 2-lobed s…
