Electron-positron momentum density distribution in diamond
We have measured the momentum distribution of the electron-positron annihilating pair in diamond as a function of crystallographic orientation, using the Doppler broadening technique of positron annihilation spectroscopy. A 1% variation in the longitudinal projection of the momentum distribution was observed as the sample was rotated about the (110) axis. This anisotropic distribution shows an ...
متن کاملElectron density distribution in paramagnetic chromium: A -ray diffraction study
High-accuracy single-crystal structure factors, complete up to sin / =1.78 Å−1 have been measured from paramagnetic chromium at 333 K using 316.5 keV radiation. A detailed description of the electron density distribution is derived in terms of a multipolar atomic deformation model. There is pronounced charge asphericity in the valence region arising from preferential occupancy of the t2g subshe...
متن کاملStructural and elastic anisotropy of crystals at high pressures and temperatures from quantum mechanical methods: The case of Mg2SiO4 forsterite.
We report accurate ab initio theoretical predictions of the elastic, seismic, and structural anisotropy of the orthorhombic Mg2SiO4 forsterite crystal at high pressures (up to 20 GPa) and temperatures (up to its melting point, 2163 K), which constitute earth's upper mantle conditions. Single-crystal elastic stiffness constants are evaluated up to 20 GPa and their first- and second-order pressur...
متن کاملElectron Density Distribution in the Organic Superconductor (TMTSF)2AsF6.
Excellent crystals of (TMTSF)(2)AsF(6) (TMTSF, tetramethyltetraselenafulvalene) were employed to obtain x-ray diffraction data for a determination of the electron density distribution in this organic superconductor. Electron density was observed between molecules in a stack of donors of an organic metal and between certain interstack selenium atoms of these donors.
متن کاملIdentification of Relict Forsterite Grains in Forsterite-rich Chondrules
Introduction: Many chondrules clearly contain relict grains that result from incomplete melting of precursor material. Most discussions of relict grains have focused on grains that are easy to identify because they have compositions significantly different from their host chondrules, including forsterite in type II chondrules and dusty olivine in type I chondrules [1]. However, in order to full...
