At temperature T high compared to the hyperfine coupling, the nuclear spins create a spatially random potential landscape, with dynamics dictated by the nuclear relaxation time $T_2$. The distribution of the domain wall relaxation times (both in the thermal and quantum regimes) can show a long tail, characteristic of stochastic processes where rare events are important. Here, these are due to occasional strong fluctuations in the nuclear spin polarisation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-08-28T12:44:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "domain wall motion", "domain wall relaxation times", "spatially random potential landscape", "nuclear relaxation time", "nuclear spin polarisation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "1999cond.mat..8423D" } } }
