We analyze the physics of spin-3 Bose-Einstein condensates, and, in particular, the new physics expected in ongoing experiments with condensates of chromium atoms. We first discuss the ground-state properties, which, depending on still unknown chromium parameters, and for low magnetic fields, can present various types of phases. We also discuss the spinor dynamics in chromium spinor condensates...

Single crystals of four erbium-chromium sulfides have been grown by chemical vapor transport using iodine as the transporting agent. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that in Er(3)CrS(6) octahedral sites are occupied exclusively by Cr(3+) cations, leading to one-dimensional CrS(4)(5-) chains of edge-sharing octahedra, while in Er(2)CrS(4), Er(3+), and Cr(2+) cations occupy the available ...

The electrochemical behaviors of eight parent alloys and four post-solder alloys used in dental prostheses were specified in a (pH=7.4; [NaCl]=9g/L)-aqueous solution at 37°C. For each alloy, the free potential was followed during two hours, and a cyclic polarization between the cathodic domain and the solvent’s oxidation was performed. The galvanic corrosion between each parent alloy and its us...

Stainless steel alloys containing 8% to 12% nickel and 17% to 22% chromium are generally used in orthodontic appliances. A major concern has been the performance of alloys in the environment in which they are intended to function in the oral cavity. Biodegradation and metal release increase the risk of hypersensitivity and cytotoxicity. This case report describes for the first time a CAD/CAM zi...

Microleakage at the junction between the metal alloy and acrylic resin in a removable partial denture may result in discoloration, fluid percolation, and acrylic resin deterioration and Failure of a removable partial denture. Dye penetration test was conducted on eighty specimens each of Nickel-Chromium/Cobalt-Chromium metal-Heat cure acrylic resin. Samples were randomly divided into eight grou...

Cyclopentadienyl chromium hydrazide gels were synthesized from the protonolysis reaction between bis(cyclopentadienyl) chromium and hydrazine. The amorphous products containing low valent chromium species are exploited as substrates for Kubas-type hydrogen storage. These materials demonstrate enthalpies that rise from 10 to 45 kJ mol(-1) and show a retention of 49% of the adsorption capacity at...

It has been shown that hydrogen and oxygen atoms cannot be present in the open pores of crystal lattices base metals casting alloys. The solubility gases liquid alloys is a nanostructured process. Hydrogen melts are adsorbed by basic metal elemental nanocrystals. Nitrogen dissolves iron, nickel chromium not atomic form, but composition elementary nanocrystals nitride molecules. After deoxidatio...
