The influence of variable thermophysical characteristics on the temperature field in a ceramic plate

We discuss an analytic method of determining the temperature fields in a rectangular plate of ceramic base type or a plate without inclusions. To increase the accuracy of the results obtained we take account of the temperature dependence of the coefficient of thermal conductivity and the specific heat capacity Translated fromMatematicheskie Melody i Fiziko-Mekhanicheskie Polya, Issue 31, 1990, pp. 99–103.     

Field-Induced Slow Magnetic Relaxation in CoII Cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylates

New Co^II substituted malonate field-induced molecular magnets {[Rb₆Co₃(cpdc)₆(H₂O)₁₂]∙6H₂O}_n (1) and [Cs₂Co(cpdc)₂(H₂O)₆]_n (2) (where cpdc²⁻ stands for cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylic acid dianions) were synthesized. Both compounds contain mononuclear bischelate fragments {Co^II(cpdc)₂(H₂O)₂}²⁻ where the quasi-octahedral cobalt environment (CoO₆) is complemented by water molecules in apical positions. The alkali metal atoms play the role of connectors between the bischelate fragments to form 3D and 2D polymeric structures for 1 and 2, respectively. Analysis of dc magnetic data using the parametric Griffith Hamiltonian for high-spin Co^II supported by ab initio calculations revealed that both compounds have an easy axis of magnetic anisotropy. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibit slow magnetic relaxation under an external magnetic field (H_DC = 1000 and 1500 Oe, respectively).
