Generation of rotational fields due to thermal motion of atoms in metals

Resumo

Molecular dynamics investigation is performed on rotational fields in an isolated nanosized metal crystal at a certain temperature. Such fields are shown to exist even without external mechanical action. We investigate how the temperature and size of nanostructures affect specific rotational energies of atom subsystems. Statistical processing of the numerical data is used to find the dependence of the specific rotational energy of atoms on the structure temperature and size.
