Thermodynamic analysis of interfacial transport and of the thermomagnetoelectric system

We have applied the methods of nonequilibrium thermodynamics to study the transport of charge, heat, and nonequilibrium magnetization in discrete and continuous systems. The linear dynamic equations of thermoelectricity are extended to describe the interfacial thermoelectric effect, and to include the thermomagnetoelectric effect. A few ramifications of the equations are discussed, and they are applied, in the Appendix, to a detailed analysis of the transport of charge and nonequilibrium magnetization across a ferromagnetic-paramagnetic interface.
