Direct evidence for muonium radicals in water solutions

The precession frequencies of muonium in a molecular radical state have been observed by μSR technique in diluted solutions of 2,6-dihydroxy-5-methyl-pyrimidine (thymine) in water. The conditions for the observation of the radicals are discussed in terms of the interdependent roles played by the chemical reaction time for muonium and by the external magnetic field. A comparison with the known ESR data on solid thymine confirms that the observed product of the muonium's reaction is an adduct radical with an hyperfine interaction reduced to 7% ± 1% of the muonium value     

Effect of Restricted Geometry on the Structure and Phase Transitions in Potassium Nitrate Nanoparticles

The effect of restricted geometry and thermal prehistory of sample preparation on phase transitions in nanocomposites on base of porous glasses with average pore diameters 7 and 46 nm filled by potassium nitrate have been studied by X-rays and neutron diffraction. The nanoparticle sizes have been determined and phase diagrams (on cooling) for these nanoparticles have been described. It is shown that there is a critical nanoparticle size in the interval from 30 till 20 nm, at which in nanocomposite the ferroelectric phase is realized only regardless of preparation method.     

Low-frequency optical spectra of lattice vibrations of the Hg<Subscript>1−<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>Zn<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis>Te alloy

The paper reports on assignment of lattice reflection spectra of the Hg_1?x Zn_x Te alloys (x = 0.10, 0.35, and 0.55) measured in the 40–300-K temperature interval and on a comparative analysis of the lattice vibration parameters for two alloy systems, HgZnTe and HgCdTe, in the low-frequency optical vibration region (the region of the anomalous Hg-Te vibrational mode in HgTe). While the parameters of the fundamental lattice modes are closely similar, the temperature dependences of the low-frequency modes of the two alloy systems are radically different. Their thermal activation energies for the HgZnTe and HgCdTe alloys are 3.3 and 50.0 meV, respectively. The results of the experiment are treated in terms of the double-well potential model for the Hg atom in the alloy lattice.     

CsPbCl3 nanocrystals dispersed in the Rb0,8Cs0,2Cl matrix studied by far-infrared spectroscopy

The comparative far-infrared spectroscopy studies of Rb_0.8Cs_0.2Cl and Rb_0.8Cs_0.2Cl containing CsPbCl₃ nanocrystals between 170 and 320 K are reported. The effect of cesium lead chloride nanocrystals on the phonon modes of the host matrix, particularly manifested in different temperature behavior of LO–TO splitting and the temperature dependence of high frequency dielectric constant, are demonstrated.     

Elementary excitations in the cyclic molecular nanomagnet Cr8

Combining recent and new inelastic neutron scattering data for the molecular cyclic cluster Cr8 produces a deep understanding of the low lying excitations in bipartite antiferromagnetic Heisenberg rings. The existence of the L band, the lowest rotational band, and the E band, essentially spin wave excitations, is confirmed spectroscopically. The different significance of these excitations and their physical nature is clearly established by high-energy and Q-dependence data.     

Ultraslow polaron dynamics in low-doped manganites from (139)La NMR-NQR and muon spin rotation

We report a (139)La NMR investigation of low-doped insulating manganite samples (LaMnO(3+delta) and La(1-y)Ca(y)MnO(3+delta)) as a function of temperature. A volume fraction with fast nuclear relaxations was revealed by the inhomogeneous loss of the NMR signal over a broad temperature interval. Comparison with muon spin rotation data demonstrates that the wipeout of the (139)La signal is mainly due to slowly fluctuating electric field gradients. This provides strong evidence for the slow diffusion of lattice excitations, identified with Jahn-Teller small polarons.     

Comparative Study of Aerobic Alkene Epoxidations Catalyzed by Optically Active Manganese(iii) and Cobalt(ii) Salen Complexes

A comparative study of aerobic alkene epoxidations in the presence of pivalaldehyde catalyzed by the optically active Mn(III)Salen and Co(II)Salen complexes has been performed. The nature of the asymmetric induction is discussed.     

TPD and ITPD study of materials used as chemoresistive gas sensors

Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and a differential form of it, called intermittent temperature-programmed desorption (ITPD), turned out to be powerful characterising techniques for chemoresistive materials applied to gas sensing. We investigated samples of SnO₂, TiO₂ and solid solutions of them (Ti_xSn_1 ? xO₂). TPD and ITPD experiments were carried out in vacuum, with samples previously treated in pure O₂ (100 Torr, 500 °C, 30 min). Amounts of desorbed O₂ corresponded for all Ti-containing samples to less than 10% of a compact monolayer of ions O^2?. Corresponding values of the apparent activation energy of desorption (E_app) were calculated directly from the Arrhenius plots for each partial TPD and ranged from about 100 to 330 kJ mol^? 1 (1.16 to 3.82 eV).
