Without the field, the thermal diffusion coefficient obtained by video microscopy is D 0 ≈ 3 × 10 − 4     μ m 2 / s . With the field, the transversal diffusion exhibits a giant enhancement by almost four decades and a pronounced maximum as a function of the driving frequency. We explain the experimental findings with a theoretical interpretation in terms of random disorder effects within the magnetic film.4 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Physical Society, 2010Física de partículesParamagnetismeParticle physicsParamagnetismGiant transversal particle diffusion in a longitudinal magnetic ratchetinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article5849712019-07-23info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
