Orbital-based Scenario for Magnetic Structure of Neptunium Compounds
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to understand a crucial role of orbital degree of freedom in the magnetic structure of recently synthesized neptunium compounds NpTGa5 (T=Fe, Co, and Ni), we propose to discuss the magnetic phase of an effective two-orbital model, which has been constructed based on a j-j coupling scheme to explain the magnetic structure of uranium compounds UTGa5. By analyzing the model with the use of numerical technique such as exact diagonalization, we obtain the phase diagram including several kinds of magnetic states. An orbital-based scenario is discussed to understand the change in the magnetic structure among C-, A-, and Gtype antiferromagnetic phases, experimentally observed in NpFeGa5, NpCoGa5, and NpNiGa5.

Synthesis of bimetallic uranium and neptunium complexes of a binucleating macrocycle and determination of the solid-state structure by magnetic analysis.
Syntheses of the bimetallic uranium(III) and neptunium(III) complexes [(UI)(2)(L)], [(NpI)(2)(L)], and [{U(BH(4))}(2)(L)] of the Schiff-base pyrrole macrocycles L are described. In the absence of single-crystal structural data, fitting of the variable-temperature solid-state magnetic data allows the prediction of polymeric structures for these compounds in the solid state.
متن کاملThe S=1 Underscreened Anderson Lattice model for Uranium compounds
Magnetic properties of uranium and neptunium compounds showing coexistence of the Kondo effect and ferromagnetic order are investigated within the degenerate Anderson Lattice Hamiltonian, describing a 5f electronic configuration with S = 1 spins. Through the Schrieffer-Wolff transformation, both an exchange Kondo interaction for the S = 1 f -spins and an effective f -band term are obtained, all...
متن کاملMössbauer stuties of neptunium fluorozirconate glass
— A new neptunium fluorozirconate glass (NpBasZrnF*) has been prepared and its Mossbauer spectrum was measured at 4.2 K and 77 K. Two resonance lines were observed. One is assigned to the Np ions occupying the normal Np sites in the compound. The other is thought to arise from Np which has replaced some of the Ba ions. The isomer shift of those ions suggests a configuration near 5f 6d . The Np ...
متن کاملEarth’s Magnetic Field for Spacecraft Attitude Control Applications (TECHNICAL NOTE)
In this paper the earth’s magnetic field is simulated precisely while the intensity and direction of the field are verified with one of the standard references for selected points on the earth and the results are compared with some low-order models. In another simulation, the complete model is compared with a common approximate model. The magnetic field in orbital frame is described and to empl...
متن کاملFirst Principle Study of MC (M= Al, Ga, and In) at Equilibrium and under Negative Stress
The electronic and magnetic properties of the hypothetical compounds of MC (M=Al, Ga and In) are investigated by using first-principle calculations and pseudopotential plane wave self-consistent field method based on density functional theory. In order to find the most stable phase of MC (M=Al, Ga and In), we study them in zinc-blende (ZB), rocksalt (RS), wurtzite and NiAs crystal structures. W...
