Modulation of magnetization in magnetic Weyl semimetals leads to the shift of Weyl points in momentum space, which effectively serves as the chirality-dependent gauge field for the Weyl fermions. Here, we theoretically study such a magnetization-induced chiral gauge field, in a fully spin-polarized Weyl ferromagnet CoSnS. From a tight-binding model of CoSnS on stacked kagome lattice with magnetism, we calculate the magnetization-dependent evolution of the Weyl points in momentum space, resulting in the chiral gauge field. In the presence of the magnetic domain wall structure, we evaluate the chiral magnetic field arising from the spatial profile of the chiral gauge field. We find that a magnetic domain wall in CoSnS gives rise to a giant chiral magnetic field for the Weyl fermions, which reaches the order of a few hundred tesla to induce the Landau quantization. Such a giant chiral magnetic field may also influence the novel transport phenomena, such as the charge pumping by the domain wall motion, compatible with the spinmotive force.

Tc, which is a daughter nuclide of Mo, is used worldwide for medical imaging. However, there is a problem with the supply of Tc (Mo) due to the replacement of aging reactors. A method to produce Tc by irradiating Mo with protons using medical cyclotrons has been proposed. In this study, we presented a method to determine individual excitation functions for Mo()Tc using measured excitation functions for Mo()Tc. The method was validated by comparing estimated radionuclide purities of Tc in enriched Mo samples using the determined excitation functions with measured ones. In this study, we found that the content of Mo, Mo, and Mo should be low in order to produce Tc with high radionuclide purity. The results of this study play an important role in discussion of the required Mo compositions in enriched Mo, taking into account the constraints of each facility.

We systematically investigate the absorption effects on the cross sections of the nucleon and alpha knockout reactions. To do this, we calculate the ratio of the cross sections of the distorted-wave impulse approximation and plane-wave impulse approximation and examine its dependence on the mass number and single-particle orbital of the knocked-out particles.

Topological electromagnetism owing to nontrivial momentum-space topology of electrons in insulators gives rise to diverse anomalous magnetoelectric responses. While conventional inductors and capacitors are based on classical electromagnetism described by Maxwell's equations, here we show that topological electromagnetism in combination with spin dynamics in magnets also generates an inductance or a capacitance. We build a generic framework to extract the complex impedance on the basis of topological field theory, and demonstrate the emergence of an inductance or a capacitance in several heterostructure setups. In comparison with the previously-studied emergent inductances in metallic magnets, insulators highly suppress the power loss, because of the absence of Joule heating. We show that the inductance from topological electromagnetism is achieved at low current and high frequency, and is also advantageous in its power efficiency, as characterized by the high quality factor (Q-factor).
