Extreme magnetoresistance in magnetic rare-earth monopnictides

Influence of the rare-earth element on the effects of the structural and magnetic phase transitions in CeFeAsO, PrFeAsO and NdFeAsO

We present results of transport and magnetic properties and heat capacity measurements on polycrystalline CeFeAsO, PrFeAsO and NdFeAsO. These materials undergo structural phase transitions, spin density wave-like magnetic ordering of small moments on iron and antiferromagnetic ordering of rare-earth moments. The temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficient, thermal ...

Solvent Extraction and Transport of Rare Earth Metal Ions Using 5.11.17.23-Tetra-tert-butyl-25,27-bis (diethylcarbomoylmethoxy)-26,28-dihydroxy Calix[4]arene

The solvent extraction of rare earth metal ions from nitrate solutions by 5.11.17.23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,27-bis(diethylcarbamoylmethoxy)-26,28-dihydroxycalix[4]arene (L) in 1,2-dichloroethane has been investigated. The alalysis of the extraction equilibrium obtained from a mixture of La3+, Eu3+, Er3+ and Y3+ revealed that the extracted species hav...

An Overview of Cobalt Ferrite Core-Shell Nanoparticles for Magnetic Hyperthermia Applications

Cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (CoFe2O4) are well known for some distinctive characteristics such as high magnetic permeability and coercive force, good saturation magnetization, excellent physical, and chemical stability, which make them so attractive for magnetic storage, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), drug delivery, optical-magnetic equipment, radar absorbing materials...

A review of Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility analysis of Indian dykes: Implications on magma emplacement

The analysis of Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) is a powerful and rapid technique to examine the preferred orientations of mineral (magnetic) fabrics and can indicate the nature of a magma transport (vertical or lateral). The relationship between magnetic fabric and geometry of a dyke swarm enables us to understand magma emplacement processes. Depending on the mutual relationship of...
