Uncompensated magnetization in the layered molecular antiferromagnet {N(n-C5H11)4[MnFe(ox)3]}∞

Studies on the magnetic properties of the molecular antiferromagnetic material {N(n-C₅H₁₁)₄[Mn^IIFe^III(ox)₃]}_∞, carried out by various physical techniques (AC/DC magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, heat capacity measurements and Mössbauer spectroscopy) at low temperatures, have been presented. Different experimental observations complement each other and provide a clue for the observation of an uncompensated magnetization below the Néel temperature and short-range correlations persisting high above T_N. It is understood that the honeycomb layered structure of the compound contains non-equivalent magnetic sub-lattices, (Mn^II–ox–Fe^III_A–...) and (Mn^II–ox–Fe^III_B–...), where different responses of the Fe^III_A and Fe^III_B spin sites towards an external magnetic field might be responsible for the observation of the uncompensated magnetization in this compound at T < T_N. The present magnetic system is an S = 5/2 2-D Heisenberg antiferromagnet system with the intralayer exchange parameter J/k_B = −3.29 K. A very weak interlayer exchange interaction was anticipated from the spin wave modeling of the magnetic heat capacity for T < 0.5T_N. The positive sign of the coupling between the layers has been concluded from the Mössbauer spectrum in the applied magnetic field. Frustration in the magnetic interactions gives rise to the uncompensated magnetic moment in this compound at low temperatures.     

On Default Priors for Robust Bayesian Estimation with Divergences

This paper presents objective priors for robust Bayesian estimation against outliers based on divergences. The minimum γ-divergence estimator is well-known to work well in estimation against heavy contamination. The robust Bayesian methods by using quasi-posterior distributions based on divergences have been also proposed in recent years. In the objective Bayesian framework, the selection of default prior distributions under such quasi-posterior distributions is an important problem. In this study, we provide some properties of reference and moment matching priors under the quasi-posterior distribution based on the γ-divergence. In particular, we show that the proposed priors are approximately robust under the condition on the contamination distribution without assuming any conditions on the contamination ratio. Some simulation studies are also presented.     

Signal moments for the short‐time Fourier transform associated with Hardy–Sobolev derivatives

The short‐time Fourier transform has been shown to be a powerful tool for non‐stationary signals and time‐varying systems. This paper investigates the signal moments in the Hardy–Sobolev space that do not usually have classical derivatives. That is, signal moments become valid for non‐smooth signals if we replace the classical derivatives by the Hardy–Sobolev derivatives. Our work is based on the extension of Cohen's contributions to the local and global behaviors of the signal. The relationship of the moments and spreads of the signal in the time, frequency and short‐time Fourier domain are established in the Hardy–Sobolev space.

Blocking and delay performance for differential output-ports choosing probability scheme applied optical burst switching network

Differential output-ports choosing probability (DOCP) scheme is a novel traffic outputting model for core router in optical burst switching (OBS) network. In this paper, we provide an analytical model for studying the performance of traffic blocking and delay in DOCP-applied OBS network. We first evaluate blocking probabilities using DOCP and confirm it by simulation. Then, in optical buffer-equipped OBS core router, we consider the average delay time for buffered traffic and the average total traffic queueing length in core router. The knowledge of delay performance is useful for the optical buffer architecture configuration in differential traffic scenario. Several results indicate that, under the same load condition, the blocking probabilities and the delay time will change along with the changeable ports choosing probability and the ratio between different length bursts in the OBS system.     

第一性原理计算Ni原子吸附在Al(111)表面原子结构和电子态

利用密度泛函理论和广义梯度近似研究镍吸附在Al(111)表面。在覆盖率为0.25ML下,分析了Ni吸附在Al(111)表面的面心立方洞位、六角密排洞位、顶位和桥位四个高对称位的原子结构和吸附能。比较不同高对称位的吸附能发现,六角密排洞位的吸附能最大,是5.76 eV,是最稳定的吸附位置。详细讨论了两个最低能量结构-三重洞位的电子结构、功函数、表面偶极距和Ni-Al键的特性。在费米能级附近,Ni-3d和Al-3s,3p轨道产生杂化,形成金属间化合键。由于吸附导致双金属体系表面偶极距和功函数的变化。我们发现：Ni原子与Al(111)表面原子间成建主要是共价键,没有表现出明显的静电荷跃迁,相应的产生非常小的表面偶极距。与面心立方洞位相比,六角密排洞位在费米能级附近产生较低的态密度,在键态附近产生较大的杂化。

The microwave spectrum of cyanoformamide

The spectrum of cyanoformamide, NCCONH₂, has been measured between 18 and 40 GHz using a Hewlett-Packard spectrometer with Stark modulation. The molecule is somewhat unstable and could most conveniently be measured in a flow system. The quadrupole hyperfine structure due to the two nitrogen nuclei has been analyzed for the ground state, and quadrupole coupling constants, rotational constants, and centrifugal distortion constants have been determined for the ground state. A rough determination of the components of the electric dipole moment was possible from the Stark shifts of suitable transitions.
