    Metal-insulator transition and magnetism in correlated band insulator: FeSi and Fe1x_{1-x}Cox_{x}Si

    Get PDF
    The LDA+DMFT (local density approximation combined with dynamical mean-field theory) computation scheme has been used to study spectral and magnetic properties of FeSi and Fe1x_{1-x}Cox_{x}Si. Having compared different models we conclude that a correlated band insulator scenario in contrast to Kondo insulator model agrees with FeSi band structure as well as experimental data. Coulomb correlation effects lead to band narrowing of the states near the Fermi level with mass renormalization parameter m2m^*\approx 2 in agreement with the results of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Temperature dependence of spectral functions and magnetic susceptibility calculated in DMFT reproduces transition from nonmagnetic semiconductor to metal with local magnetic moments observed experimentally. Cobalt doping leads to ferromagnetism that has itinerant nature and can be successfully described by LDA+DMFT method.Comment: 10 pages, 15 figure

    Hydrogen isotope exchange in proton-conducting oxides during proton and deuteron irradiation

    Full text link
    It has been found that during accelerator beam deuteron irradiation of a proton-conducting oxide containing protium H/D isotope exchange between beam ions and dissolved ions takes place. This isotope exchange was also observed during high-energy proton irradiation of the oxide containing dissolved deuterium atoms. These results provide evidence to a new type of hydrogen isotope exchange. Any appreciable effects of conjugate diffusion of hydrogen and oxygen ions and of the interface processes on the isotope exchange rate were eliminated. In this type of exchange the rate of replacement of H+ by D+ and of D+ by H+ was determined only by the properties of the crystal. The discovered effect was used in our study to obtain experimental data characterizing the dynamic and equilibrium behavior of hydrogen isotopes in the oxide BaZr0.9Y0.1O3 - δ. © 2013 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd

    Isomeric states close to doubly magic 132^{132}Sn studied with JYFLTRAP

    Full text link
    The double Penning trap mass spectrometer JYFLTRAP has been employed to measure masses and excitation energies for 11/211/2^- isomers in 121^{121}Cd, 123^{123}Cd, 125^{125}Cd and 133^{133}Te, for 1/21/2^- isomers in 129^{129}In and 131^{131}In, and for 77^- isomers in 130^{130}Sn and 134^{134}Sb. These first direct mass measurements of the Cd and In isomers reveal deviations to the excitation energies based on results from beta-decay experiments and yield new information on neutron- and proton-hole states close to 132^{132}Sn. A new excitation energy of 144(4) keV has been determined for 123^{123}Cdm^m. A good agreement with the precisely known excitation energies of 121^{121}Cdm^m, 130^{130}Snm^m, and 134^{134}Sbm^m has been found.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.

    Mass measurements in the vicinity of the doubly-magic waiting point 56Ni

    Masses of 56,57Fe, 53Co^m, 53,56Co, 55,56,57Ni, 57,58Cu, and 59,60Zn have been determined with the JYFLTRAP Penning trap mass spectrometer at IGISOL with a precision of dm/m \le 3 x 10^{-8}. The QEC values for 53Co, 55Ni, 56Ni, 57Cu, 58Cu, and 59Zn have been measured directly with a typical precision of better than 0.7 keV and Coulomb displacement energies have been determined. The Q values for proton captures on 55Co, 56Ni, 58Cu, and 59Cu have been measured directly. The precision of the proton-capture Q value for 56Ni(p,gamma)57Cu, Q(p,gamma) = 689.69(51) keV, crucial for astrophysical rp-process calculations, has been improved by a factor of 37. The excitation energy of the proton emitting spin-gap isomer 53Co^m has been measured precisely, Ex = 3174.3(10) keV, and a Coulomb energy difference of 133.9(10) keV for the 19/2- state has been obtained. Except for 53Co, the mass values have been adjusted within a network of 17 frequency ratio measurements between 13 nuclides which allowed also a determination of the reference masses 55Co, 58Ni, and 59Cu.Comment: 14 pages, 13 figures, submitted to Phys.

    The Q_EC values of the superallowed beta+ emitters 10-C, 34-Ar, 38-Ca and 46-V have been measured with a Penning-trap mass spectrometer to be 3648.12(8), 6061.83(8), 6612.12(7) and 7052.44(10) keV, respectively. All four values are substantially improved in precision over previous results.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, 5 table

Having compared different models, we conclude that a correlated band insulator scenario in contrast to Kondo insulator model agrees well with FeSi band structure and experimental data. Coulomb correlation effects lead to band narrowing of the states near the Fermi level with mass renormalization parameter m *≈.2 in agreement with the results of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy.

    Faddeev study of heavy baryon spectroscopy

    Get PDF
    We investigate the structure of heavy baryons containing a charm or a bottom quark. We employ a constituent quark model successful in the description of the baryon-baryon interaction which is consistent with the light baryon spectra. We solve exactly the three-quark problem by means of the Faddeev method in momentum space. Heavy baryon spectrum shows a manifest compromise between perturbative and nonperturbative contributions. The flavor dependence of the one-gluon exchange is analyzed. We assign quantum numbers to some already observed resonances and we predict the first radial and orbital excitations of all states with J=1/2J=1/2 or 3/2. We combine our results with heavy quark symmetry and lowest-order SU(3) symmetry breaking to predict the masses and quantum numbers of six still non-measured ground-state beauty baryons.Comment: 22 pages, 4 figures, 8 tables.
