Electron Spin Resonance G Shift In Gd5 Si4, Gd5 Ge4, And Gd5.09 Ge2.03 Si1.88

Gd5 Si4, Gd5 Ge4, and Gd5.09 Ge2.03 Si1.88 compounds were studied by electron spin resonance. The arc-melted samples were initially characterized by optical metallography, x-ray diffraction, and static magnetization measurements. The electron spin resonance results show a negative paramagnetic g shift for Gd5 Si4 and Gd5.09 Ge2.03 Si1.88, and a smaller positive one for Gd5 Ge4. The values of the exchange parameter (j) between the localized Gd-4f spins and the conduction electrons are obtained from the g shifts. These values are positive and of the same order of magnitude for Gd5 Si4 and Gd5.09 Ge2.03 Si1.88, and negative one order of magnitude smaller for Gd5 Ge4. The electron spin resonance data were interpreted considering the strongly bottlenecked solution of the coupled Bloch-Hasegawa equations. © 2006 The American Physical Society.7314Pecharsky, V.K., Gschneidner Jr., K.A., (1997) Phys.

Electron Spin Resonance And Magnetic Characterization Of The Gd5.09 Ge2.03 Si1.88

Electron spin resonance was applied on samples of Gd5.09 Ge2.03 Si1.88. The results are discussed under the scope of magnetization measurements, optical metallography, and wavelength dispersive spectroscopy. Polycrystalline arc-melted samples submitted to different heat treatments were investigated. The correlation of the electron spin resonance and magnetization results permitted a characterization of the present phases and their transitions. Two coexisting phases in the temperature range between two phase transitions have been identified and associated to distinct crystallographic phases. Additionally, the magnetic moment at high temperatures has been estimated from the measured effective g factor. A peak value of 21.5 J kg K for the magnetocaloric effect was obtained for a sample heat treated at 1500°C for 16 h. © 2005 The American Physical Society.7222Morellon, L., Algarabel, P.A., Ibarra, M.R., Blasco, J., Garcia-Landa, B., Arnold, Z., Albertini, F., (1998) Phys.

Search for First Harmonic Modulation in the Right Ascension Distribution of Cosmic Rays Detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory

We present the results of searches for dipolar-type anisotropies in different energy ranges above $2.5\times 10^{17}$ eV with the surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory, reporting on both the phase and the amplitude measurements of the first harmonic modulation in the right-ascension distribution. Upper limits on the amplitudes are obtained, which provide the most stringent bounds at present, being below 2% at 99% $C.L.$ for EeV energies. We also compare our results to those of previous experiments as well as with some theoretical expectations.Comment: 28 pages, 11 figure
