Measurements of the relaxation rate behaviour of two series of dysprosium complexes have been performed in solution, over the field range 1.0 to 16.5 Tesla. The field dependence has been modelled using Bloch-Redfield-Wangsness theory, allowing estimates of the electronic relaxation time, T1e, and the size of the magnetic susceptibility, μeff, to be made. Changes in relaxation rate of the order ...

Computational studies have attracted the attention of researchers to understand the structural behavior of the molecules. These methods grade complex systems for novel properties with new predictions in areas of physics, chemistry and biology useful for conduct of experimental studies. Nanoparticles in present day technologies have become integral part in diverse areas of science mostly with me...

The recent discovery of the splay nematic phase, a new polymorph that has been found to be both polar and ferroelectric, is lead paragraph in an entirely chapter history liquid crystals. potential for transformative applications utilising this state matter – such as photonics, non-linear optics, memory so on can only met with significant improvements temperature range existing materials 4-(4-ni...

Electrical control of spins at the nanoscale offers significant architectural advantages in spintronics, because electric fields can be confined over shorter length scales than magnetic fields. Thus, recent demonstrations electric-field (E-field) sensitivities molecular spin materials are tantalising, raising viability quantum analogues macroscopic magneto-electric devices.However, E-field repo...

In this sketch, some recent developments in Compton scattering off the deuteron are reviewed. The strong energy-dependence of the scalar magnetic dipole polarisability βM1 turns out to be crucial to understand the data from Saskatoon at 94 MeV. Chiral Effective Field Theory is used to extract the static iso-scalar dipole polarisabilities as ᾱs = 12.6± 1.4stat ± 1.0wavefu and β̄ s = 2.3± 1.7stat ...
