A question on perturbed flux function
Given a magnetic field $\mathbf{B}=B_{0}\left(\dfrac{xz}{z_{s}^{2}},\dfrac{yz}{z_{s}^{2}}, 1-2\left( \dfrac{x^{2}}{r_{s}^{2}}+\dfrac{y^{2}}{r_{s}^{2}}\right) -\dfrac{z^{2}}{z_{s}^{2}}\right)$ with the ...

What are the operators here and how are these formulas derived? [closed]
In (23), are grad and div some kind of scalar operators comparing to $\nabla$ and $\nabla\times$? because tbh I dont know how $\text{curl}(\mu^{-1}\text{curl}\textbf{A})$ turns into $\text{div}\mu^{-1}...

Most generic form of refractive index tensors
The refractive index of a material is in general a $3x3$ tensor (as in the case of birefringent crystals). From literature, it seems that in the case of transparent crystals, this tensor is in general ...

Why the $T_1$ recovery & $T_2$ decay are independent?
In MRI, I was thinking that the decrease in transverse magnetization results in the recovery of longitudinal magnetization.
However, recently, I found it was wrong. I saw a diagram
(McRobbie 2014. ...
