Although T Tauri is one of the most studied young objects in astronomy, the nature of its circumstellar environment remains elusive due, in part, to the small angular separation of its three components (North-South and South a-b are separated by 0.68” and 0.12” respectively). Taking advantage of incredibly stable, high Strehl, PSFs obtained with Mid-IR adaptive optics at the 6.5 meter MMT, we a...

LaCrSb3, a new layered material, crystallizes in space group Pbcm with a ) 13.266(3), b ) 6.188(1), and c ) 6.100(1) Å at 293 K as determined by neutron diffraction. Corrugated CrSb2 layers are stacked normal to [100] and are separated by La3+ ions and a nearly square planar Sb layer. Resistivity data indicate metallic behavior parallel to the c-axis. At low temperatures, the resistivity follow...

In Cs(2)SbCl(6) and related compounds antimony appears as Sb(III) and Sb(V) in alternate halide octahedra. The optical spectrum contains "mixed valence" peaks assigned to Sb(III) --> Sb(V) transfer near 18 and 27 kK (cm(-1)). In addition there is a peak near 31 kK assigned to an internal transition on Sb(III) and one near 37 kK assigned to Sb(V), mixed with the absorption edge of the crystal. T...

Tin anode slime is a by-product of the tin electrolytic refining process. This study investigated route to separate Sn, Sb, Bi, and Cu from after leaching with hydrochloric acid. In solvent extraction process tributyl phosphate, Sb Sn were extracted into organic phase. Bi unextracted remained in liquid stripping experiment, stripped separated HCl HNO3. aqueous phase also chemical precipitation ...
