Flux line lattice symmetries in the borocarbide superconductor LuNi2B2C

We compare the results of small angle neutron scattering on the flux line lattice (FLL) obtained in the borocarbide superconductor LuNi₂B₂C with the applied field along the c- and a-axes. For H‖c the temperature dependence of the FLL structural phase transition from square to hexagonal symmetry was investigated. Above 10 K the transition onset field. H ₂(T), rises sharply, bending away from H _c2(T) in contradiction to theoretical predictions of the two merging. For H‖a a first order FLL reorientation transition is observed at H _tr=3–3.5 kOe. Below H _tr the FLL nearest neighbor direction is parallel to the b-axis, and above H _tr to the c-axis. This transition cannot be explained using nonlocal corrections to the London model.

d-f-Exchange resonance in gadolinium: Theory and experiment

The single-crystal gadolinium dielectric permeability spectrum is investigated experimentally and theoretically in the frequency range 0.5 ? $\text{h}\text{?}$ω ?1 eV. The temperature dependence of d-f exchange resonance spectrum observed in the above range is interpreted. This is done in terms of the concept of intra-atomic light absorption and the magnetic order parameter dependence of the coherence degree of angular parts of quasi-bound 5d-electron wave functions.     

Singularities of magnetic and elastic characteristics of La2/3Ba1/3MnO3: Analysis of martensitic kinetics

A coordinated temperature behavior of magnetic susceptibility and internal friction has been observed in the La_2/3Ba_1/3MnO₃ manganite in the temperature region of the crystal phase separation 5–340 K. Stepwise temperature behavior of the susceptibility of the single crystal sample and corresponding singular behavior of the internal friction in the polycrystalline manganite have been found. These small-scale features of the temperature dependences of the susceptibility and the internal friction are considered to be a reflection of martensitic kinetics of the structural phase transformation R3¯c↔Imma in the 200 K temperature region.     

The Nd–Mn exchange interaction,low temperature specific heat and magnetism of Nd2/3Ca1/3MnO3

The low temperature specific heat and magnetic characteristics of Nd_2/3Ca_1/3MnO₃ perovskite are studied in a wide range of magnetic fields (up to 9 T). Temperature dependent specific heat data show a broadened Schottky-like anomaly below 20 K caused by splitting of the Nd³⁺ ions ground-state doublet in the effective molecular field H_ex, determined by exchange interaction between Nd and Mn spin systems supplemented by an applied external magnetic field. Existence of the splitting at zero magnetic field and expressed field dependence is the evidence of a strong exchange coupling between Nd and Mn magnetic subsystems. The Nd-ions magnetic ordering leads to an additional contribution to the magnetic moment of the system below 30 K, producing anomalies of the magnetic loss and field-cooled and zero-field-cooled magnetizations. The observed broadened Schottky-like anomalies are fitted for each applied magnetic field by the sum of three Schottky functions. Applied magnetic field extends the anomaly region and shifts it to higher temperatures. Splitting of the higher crystal field Kramers doublets gives an additional contribution to the heat capacity in magnetic fields. The ground state doublet g-factors g_|| and g_⊥ were estimated to be 3.4 and 2.2, respectively, and H_ex was estimated to be 9 T. The Nd³⁺ ions magnetic moment estimated from the magnetization data agrees with the value obtained from the specific heat data.
