Propylthiocyclopentadiene: A new synthetic route to complexes of iron and group 4 transition metals. Molecular structure of (C5H4SCH2CH2CH3)(2)ZrCl2
The use of the propylthio-substituted cyclopentadienylsodium salt leads to 1,1'-bis(propylthio) ferrocene and dichlorobis(propylthiocyclopentadienyl)zirconium, titanium or hafnium(IV). The structure of (C5H4SCH2CH2CH3)(2)ZrCl2 has been established by X-ray analysis (orthorhombic, Pbcn, a = 11.943(1) Angstrom, b = 6.883(2) Angstrom, c = 22.412(2) Angstrom, V = 1842.4(2) Angstrom(3), Z = 4, R(F) = 0.027). The complexes have been characterized by H-1 and C-13 NMR and electrochemical studies. The physico chemical properties of 1,1'-bis(propylthio) ferrocene are discussed by a molecular approach at the extended Huckel level

Glassiness Vs. Order in Densely Frustrated Josephson Arrays
We carry out extensive Monte Carlo simulations on the Coulomb gas dual to the
uniformly frustrated two dimensional XY model, for a sequence of frustrations f
converging to the irraltional (3-sqrt 5)/2. We find in these systems a sharp
first order equilibrium phase transition to an ordered vortex structure at a
T_c which varies only slightly with f. This ordered vortex structure remains in
general phase incoherent until a lower pinning transition T_p(f) that varies
with f. We argue that the glassy behaviors reported for this model in earlier
simulations are dynamic effects.Comment: 4 pages, 4 eps figure
Logarithmic Corrections in the 2D XY Model
Using two sets of high-precision Monte Carlo data for the two-dimensional XY
model in the Villain formulation on square lattices, the scaling
behavior of the susceptibility and correlation length at the
Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition is analyzed with emphasis on
multiplicative logarithmic corrections in the finite-size
scaling region and in the high-temperature phase near
criticality, respectively. By analyzing the susceptibility at criticality on
lattices of size up to we obtain , in agreement with
recent work of Kenna and Irving on the the finite-size scaling of Lee-Yang
zeros in the cosine formulation of the XY model. By studying susceptibilities
and correlation lengths up to in the high-temperature phase,
however, we arrive at quite a different estimate of , which is
in good agreement with recent analyses of thermodynamic Monte Carlo data and
high-temperature series expansions of the cosine formulation.Comment: 13 pages, LaTeX + 8 postscript figures. See also

Two phase transitions in the fully frustrated model
The fully frustrated model on a square lattice is studied by means of
Monte Carlo simulations. A Kosterlitz-Thouless transition is found at , followed by an ordinary Ising transition at a slightly
higher temperature, . The non-Ising exponents reported by
others, are explained as a failure of finite size scaling due to the screening
length associated with the nearby Kosterlitz-Thouless transition.Comment: REVTEX file, 8 pages, 5 figures in uuencoded postscrip
Phase Diagram of the Two Dimensional Lattice Coulomb Gas
We use Monte Carlo simulations to map out the phase diagram of the two
dimensional Coulomb gas on a square lattice, as a function of density and
temperature. We find that the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition remains up to
higher charge densities than has been suggested by recent theoretical
estimates.Comment: 4 pages, including 6 in-line eps figure
Percolation properties of the 2D Heisenberg model
We analyze the percolation properties of certain clusters defined on
configurations of the 2--dimensional Heisenberg model. We find that, given any
direction \vec{n} in O(3) space, the spins almost perpendicular to \vec{n} form
a percolating cluster. This result gives indications of how the model can avoid
a previously conjectured Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition at finite
temperature T.Comment: 4 pages, 3 eps figures. Revised version (more clear abstract, some

Observation of a New Type of Low Frequency Waves at Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
We report on magnetic field measurements made in the innermost coma of
67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in its low activity state. Quasi-coherent,
large-amplitude (), compressional magnetic field
oscillations at 40 mHz dominate the immediate plasma environment of the
nucleus. This differs from previously studied comet-interaction regions where
waves at the cometary ion gyro-frequencies are the main feature. Thus classical
pick-up ion driven instabilities are unable to explain the observations. We
propose a cross-field current instability associated with newborn cometary ion
currents as a possible source mechanism.Comment: 6 pages, 3 Figure
