Electronic Structure and Lattice Relaxation Related to Fe in Mgo

The electronic structure of Fe impurity in MgO was calculated by the linear muffin-tin orbital--full-potential method within the conventional local-density approximation (LDA) and making use of the LDA+$U$ formalism. The importance of introducing different potentials, depending on the screened Coulomb integral $U$, is emphasized for obtaining a physically reasonable ground state of the Fe$^{2+}$ ion configuration. The symmetry lowering of the ion electrostatic field leads to the observed Jahn--Teller effect; related ligand relaxation confined to tetragonal symmetry has been optimized based on the full-potential total energy results. The electronic structure of the Fe$^{3+}$ ion is also calculated and compared with that of Fe$^{2+}$.Comment: 13 pages + 4 PostScript figures, Revtex 3.0, SISSA-CM-94-00

The FHI FEL Upgrade Design

Since coming on-line in November 2013, the Fritz-Haber-Institut (FHI) der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft (MPG) Free-Electron Laser (FEL) has provided intense, tunable infrared radiation to FHI user groups. It has enabled experiments in diverse fields ranging from bio-molecular spectroscopy to studies of clusters and nanoparticles, nonlinear solid-state spectroscopy, and surface science, resulting in 50 peer-reviewed publications so far. The MPG has now funded a significant upgrade to the original FHI FEL. A second short Rayleigh range undulator FEL beamline is being added that will permit lasing from 160 microns. Additionally, a 500 MHz kicker cavity will permit simultaneous two-color operation of the FEL from both FEL beamlines over an optical range of 5 to 50 microns by deflecting alternate 1 GHz pulses into each of the two undulators. We will describe the upgraded FHI FEL physics and engineering design and present the plans for two-color FEL operations in November 2020

Facial expressions depicting compassionate and critical emotions: the development and validation of a new emotional face stimulus set

Attachment with altruistic others requires the ability to appropriately process affiliative and kind facial cues. Yet there is no stimulus set available to investigate such processes. Here, we developed a stimulus set depicting compassionate and critical facial expressions, and validated its effectiveness using well-established visual-probe methodology. In Study 1, 62 participants rated photographs of actors displaying compassionate/kind and critical faces on strength of emotion type. This produced a new stimulus set based on N = 31 actors, whose facial expressions were reliably distinguished as compassionate, critical and neutral. In Study 2, 70 participants completed a visual-probe task measuring attentional orientation to critical and compassionate/kind faces. This revealed that participants lower in self-criticism demonstrated enhanced attention to compassionate/kind faces whereas those higher in self-criticism showed no bias. To sum, the new stimulus set produced interpretable findings using visual-probe methodology and is the first to include higher order, complex positive affect displays
