4. Instead of applying the field b(t)=b(cos⁡ωti+sin⁡ωtj)\boldsymbol{b}(t)=b(\cos \omega t \boldsymbol{i}+\sin \omega t \boldsymbol{j}), now we apply b(t)=b(cos⁡ωti−sin⁡ωtj)\boldsymbol{b}(t)=b(\cos \omega t \boldsymbol{i}-\sin \omega t \boldsymbol{j}), which rotates in the opposite direction and hence B=B0k+b(cos⁡ωti−sin⁡ωtj)\boldsymbol{B}=B_{0} \boldsymbol{k}+b(\cos \omega t \boldsymbol{i}-\sin \omega t \boldsymbol{j}). What is the effective magnetic field Beff \boldsymbol{B}_{\text {eff }} for this case (in terms of the unit vectors i′,j′,k′\boldsymbol{i}^{\prime}, \boldsymbol{j}^{\prime}, \boldsymbol{k}^{\prime} )? What is its time average, Beff ‾\overline{\boldsymbol{B}_{\text {eff }}} (recall that cos⁡2πt/T‾=sin⁡2πt/T‾=0\overline{\cos 2 \pi t / T}=\overline{\sin 2 \pi t / T}=0 )? Given constants: All matters in the universe have fundamental properties called spin, besides their mass and charge. Spin is an intrinsic form of angular momentum carried by particles. Despite the fact that quantum mechanics is needed for a full treatment of spin, we can still study the physics of spin using the usual classical formalism. In this problem, we are investigating the influence of magnetic field on spin using its classical analogue. The classical torque equation of spin is given by τ=dLdt=μ×B\boldsymbol{\tau}=\frac{d \boldsymbol{L}}{d t}=\boldsymbol{\mu} \times \boldsymbol{B} In this case, the angular momentum L\boldsymbol{L} represents the "intrinsic" spin of the particles, μ\boldsymbol{\mu} is the magnetic moment of the particles, and B\boldsymbol{B} is magnetic field. The spin of a particle is associated with a magnetic moment via the equation μ=−γL\boldsymbol{\mu}=-\gamma \boldsymbol{L} where γ\gamma is the gyromagnetic ratio. In this problem, the term "frequency" means angular frequency (rad/s), which is a scalar quantity. All bold letters represent vectors; otherwise they represent scalars. Part A. Larmor precession Context question: 1. Prove that the magnitude of magnetic moment μ\mu is always constant under the influence of a magnetic field B\boldsymbol{B}. For a special case of stationary (constant) magnetic field, also show that the angle between μ\boldsymbol{\mu} and B\boldsymbol{B} is constant. (Hint: You can use properties of vector products.) Context answer: 证明题 Context question: 2. A uniform magnetic field B\boldsymbol{B} exists and it makes an angle ϕ\phi with a particle's magnetic moment μ\boldsymbol{\mu}. Due to the torque by the magnetic field, the magnetic moment μ\boldsymbol{\mu} rotates around the field B\boldsymbol{B}, which is also known as Larmor precession. Determine the Larmor precession frequency ω0\omega_{0} of the magnetic moment with respect to B=B0k\boldsymbol{B}=B_{0} \boldsymbol{k}. Context answer: ω0=γB0\omega_{0}=\gamma B_{0} Extra Supplementary Reading Materials: Part B. Rotating frame In this section, we choose a rotating frame S′S^{\prime} as our frame of reference. The rotating frame S′=(x′,y′,z′)S^{\prime}=\left(x^{\prime}, y^{\prime}, z^{\prime}\right) rotates with an angular velocity ωk\omega \boldsymbol{k} as seen by an observer in the laboratory frame S=(x,y,z)S=(x, y, z), where the axes x′,y′,z′x^{\prime}, y^{\prime}, z^{\prime} intersect with x,y,zx, y, z at time t=0t=0. Any vector A=Axi+Ayj+Azk\boldsymbol{A}=A_{x} \boldsymbol{i}+A_{y} \boldsymbol{j}+A_{z} \boldsymbol{k} in a lab frame can be written as A=Ax′i′+Ay′j′+Az′k′\boldsymbol{A}=A_{x}{ }^{\prime} \boldsymbol{i}^{\prime}+A_{y}{ }^{\prime} \boldsymbol{j}^{\prime}+A_{z}{ }^{\prime} \boldsymbol{k}^{\prime} in the rotating frame S′S^{\prime}. The time derivative of the vector becomes dAdt=(dAx′dti′+dAy′dtj′+dAz′dtk′)+(Ax′di′dt+Ay′dj′dt+Az′dk′dt)\frac{d \boldsymbol{A}}{d t}=\left(\frac{d A_{x}{ }^{\prime}}{d t} \boldsymbol{i}^{\prime}+\frac{d A_{y}{ }^{\prime}}{d t} \boldsymbol{j}^{\prime}+\frac{d A_{z}{ }^{\prime}}{d t} \boldsymbol{k}^{\prime}\right)+\left(A_{x}{ }^{\prime} \frac{d \boldsymbol{i}^{\prime}}{d t}+A_{y}{ }^{\prime} \frac{d \boldsymbol{j}^{\prime}}{d t}+A_{z}{ }^{\prime} \frac{d \boldsymbol{k}^{\prime}}{d t}\right) (dAdt)lab=(dAdt)rot+(ωk×A)\left(\frac{d \boldsymbol{A}}{d t}\right)_{l a b}=\left(\frac{d \boldsymbol{A}}{d t}\right)_{r o t}+(\omega \mathbf{k} \times \boldsymbol{A}) where (dAdt)lab\left(\frac{d \boldsymbol{A}}{d t}\right)_{l a b} is the time derivative of vector A\boldsymbol{A} seen by an observer in the lab frame, and (dAdt)rot \left(\frac{d A}{d t}\right)_{\text {rot }} is the time derivative seen by an observer in the rotating frame. For all the following problems in this part, the answers are referred to the rotating frame S′S^{\prime}. Context question: 1. Show that the time evolution of the magnetic moment follows the equation (dμdt)rot=−γμ×Beff\left(\frac{d \boldsymbol{\mu}}{d t}\right)_{r o t}=-\gamma \boldsymbol{\mu} \times \boldsymbol{B}_{e f f} where Beff =B−ωγk′\boldsymbol{B}_{\text {eff }}=\boldsymbol{B}-\frac{\omega}{\gamma} \boldsymbol{k}^{\prime} is the effective magnetic field. Context answer: 证明题 Context question: 2. For B=B0k\boldsymbol{B}=B_{0} \boldsymbol{k}, what is the new precession frequency Δ\Delta in terms of ω0\omega_{0} and ω\omega ? Context answer: Δ=γB0−ω\Delta =\gamma B_{0}-\omega Context question: 3. Now, let us consider the case of a time-varying magnetic field. Besides a constant magnetic field, we also apply a rotating magnetic field b(t)=b(cos⁡ωti+sin⁡ωtj)\boldsymbol{b}(t)=b(\cos \omega t \boldsymbol{i}+\sin \omega t \boldsymbol{j}), so B=B0k+b(t)\boldsymbol{B}=B_{0} \boldsymbol{k}+\boldsymbol{b}(t). Show that the new Larmor precession frequency of the magnetic moment is Ω=γ(B0−ωγ)2+b2\Omega=\gamma \sqrt{\left(B_{0}-\frac{\omega}{\gamma}\right)^{2}+b^{2}} Context answer: 证明题
