A perturbative approach to J mixing in f-electron systems: Application to actinide dioxides
N. Magnani, P. Santini, G. Amoretti +1
We present a perturbative model for crystal-field calculations, which keeps into account the possible mixing of states labelled by different quantum number J. Analytical J-mixing r…
Enhancement of rare-earth--transition-metal exchange interaction in PrFe probed by inelastic neutron scattering
N. Magnani, S. Carretta, G. Amoretti +4
The fundamental magnetic interactions of PrFe are studied by inelastic neutron scattering and anisotropy field measurements. Data analysis confirms the presence of thr…
S-mixing and quantum tunneling of the magnetization in molecular nanomagnets
S. Carretta, E. Liviotti, N. Magnani +2
The role of -mixing in the quantum tunneling of the magnetization in nanomagnets has been investigated. We show that the effect on the tunneling frequency is huge and that the d…
Macroscopic evidence of quantum coherent oscillations of the total spin in the Mn-[3x3] molecular nanomagnet
S. Carretta, P. Santini, E. Liviotti +4
Molecular nanomagnets, besides promising to open new frontiers in technology, have attracted huge interest in the scientific community because they can exhibit the phenomenon known…
Study of Crystal-field Effects in Rare-earth (RE) - Transition-metal Intermetallic Compounds and in RE-based Laser Crystals
Nicola Magnani
Rare-earth (RE) based compounds and alloys are of great interest both for their fundamental physical properties and for applications. In order to tailor the required compounds for…
