Magnetic dichroism study on MnCoGa thin film using a combination of X-ray absorption and photoemission spectroscopy
Using circularly polarised radiation and a combination of bulk-sensitive hard
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray-absorption spectroscopy (XAS) we
studied the electronic and magnetic structure of epitaxial
MnCoGa thin films. Spin resolved Bloch spectral functions,
density of states as well as charge and magnetisation densities were
investigated by a first-principles analysis of full potential, fully
relativistic Korringa--Kohn--Rostoker calculations of the electronic structure.
The valence states were experimentally investigated by using linear dichroism
in the angular distribution and comparing the results to spin-resolved
densities of states. The linear dichroism in the valence band enabled a
symmetry analysis of the contributing states. The spectra were in good
agreement with the theoretical partial density of states. The element-specific,
spin-resolved, unoccupied densities of states for Co and Mn were analysed by
using XAS and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) at the edges.
The spectra were influenced by strong correlation effects. XMCD was used to
extract the site resolved magnetic moments. The experimental values of and agree very well with the
calculated magnetic moments. Magnetic circular dichroism in angle-resolved
photoelectron spectroscopy at the Mn and Co core level exhibited a
pronounced magnetic dichroism and confirmed the localised character of the Mn
valence states
Landslide susceptibility map using certainty factor for hazard mitigation in mountainous areas of Ujung-loe watershed in South Sulawesi
This study aims to build a landslide susceptibility map (LSM) by using certainty factor (CF) models for mitigation of landslide hazards and mitigation for people who live near to the forest. In the study area, the mountainous area of the Ujung-loe watersheds of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, information on landslides were derived from aerial photography using time series data images from Google Earth Pro© from 2012 to 2016 and field surveys. The LSM was built by using a CF model with eleven causative factors. The results indicated that the causative factor with the highest impact on the probability of landslide occurrence is the class of change from dense vegetation to sparse vegetation (4-1), with CF value 0.95. The CF method proved to be an excellent method for producing a landslide susceptibility map for mitigation with an area under curve (AUC) success rate of 0.831, and AUC predictive rate 0.830 and 85.28% of landslides validation fell into the high to very high class. In conclusion, correlations between landslide occurrence with causative factors shows an overall highest LUC causative factor related to the class of change from dense vegetation to sparse vegetation, resulting in the highest probability of landslide occurrence. Thus, forest areas uses at these locations should prioritize maintaining dense vegetation and involving the community in protection measures to reduce the occurrence of landslide risk. LSM models that apply certainty factors can serve as guidelines for mitigation of people living in this area to pay attention to landslide hazards with high and very high landslide vulnerability and to be careful to avoid productive activities at those locations
