A single crystal of U2NiSi3 was investigated by means of magnetization, electrical resistivity and heat capacity measurements. Whereas the DC magnetic data clearly manifest strongly anisotropic ferromagnetism, the AC magnetic susceptibility data are consistent with spin-glass behaviour, reported previously for polycrystalline samples. Moreover, no distinct anomalies around TC occur in the speci...

the concept of soft sets, introduced by molodtsov [20] is a mathematicaltool for dealing with uncertainties, that is free from the difficultiesthat have troubled the traditional theoretical approaches. in this paper, weapply the notion of the soft sets of molodtsov to the theory of hilbert algebras.the notion of soft hilbert (abysmal and deductive) algebras, soft subalgebras,soft abysms and sof...

The magnetic nanocomposites of ZnO/NiFe2O4 were synthesized using a hydrothermal method in organic solvent-free media for application as heterojunction photocatalyst. XRD measurements confirmed the formation required phases with no impurity observed. SEM and TEM analysis morphology shape composite being spherical square-like grain. properties composites measured vibrating sampler magnetometer (...

We present and analyze in detail an unknown theory of ferromagnetism developed by Ettore Majorana as early as the beginnings of 1930s, substantially different in the methods employed from the well-known Heisenberg theory of 1928 (and from later formulations by Bloch and others). Similarly to this, however, it describes successfully the main features of ferromagnetism, although the key equation ...

In order to resolve the long-standing issue of how itinerant ferromagnetism is affected by lattice structure and Hund's coupling, we compare various three-dimensional lattice structures in the single- and multiorbital Hubbard models with the dynamical mean-field theory with an improved quantum Monte Carlo algorithm that preserves the spin-SU(2) symmetry. The result indicates that both the latti...

As an archetypal semimetal with complex and anisotropic Fermi surface and unusual electric properties (e.g., high electrical resistance, large magnetoresistance, and giant Hall effect), bismuth (Bi) has played a critical role in metal physics. In general, Bi displays diamagnetism with a high volumetric susceptibility ([Formula: see text]10-4). Here, we report unusual ferromagnetism in bulk Bi s...

An investigation of La and Ca doped Sr4Ru3O10, featuring a coexistence of interlayer ferromagnetism and intralayer metamagnetism, is presented. La doping readily changes magnetism between ferromagnetism and metamagnetism by tuning the density of states. It also results in different Curie temperatures for the c-axis and the basal plane, highlighting a rare spin-orbit coupling with the crystal fi...

Doping ZnO with rare earth and 4d transition elements is a popular technique to manipulate the optical properties of ZnO systems. These systems may also possess intrinsic ferromagnetism due to their magnetic moment borne on 4f and 4d electrons. In this work, the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of Eu- and Pd-doped ZnO were investigated by the ab initio density functional theory m...

We report that the ferromagnetism of highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) samples as measured by hysteretic magnetization loops can be diminished and eventually extinguished with sufficiently long high vacuum anneals at temperatures on the order of 2300 !C. Concomitant with the extinction of ferromagnetism, we observe an annealinduced increase in grain size (accompanied by possible edge rec...

Diamagnetic oxides can, under certain conditions, become ferromagnetic at room temperature and therefore are promising candidates for future material in spintronic devices. Contrary to early predictions, doping ZnO with uniformly distributed magnetic ions is not essential to obtain ferromagnetic samples. Instead, the nanostructure seems to play the key role, as room temperature ferromagnetism w...
