High-spin states in Cs-123 were populated in the Ni-64(Ni-64,p4n) reaction at a beam energy of 265 MeV. Gamma-ray coincidences were measured using the Gammasphere spectrometer. Two additional bands have been placed in the level scheme and the four previously known bands have been extended to higher spin. At the highest spins, two of the bands show irregular level sequences. These structures of non
We report on a low-temperature magnetoconductance study to characterize the electrical and spin transport properties of n-type InAs nanowires grown by chemical beam epitaxy. A gate-controlled crossover from weak localization to weak antilocalization is observed. The measured magnetoconductance data agrees well with theory for one-dimensional quasi-ballistic systems and yields a spin relaxation len
X-ray absorption and magnetic circular dichroism spectra of as-deposited and postannealed Fe50 Pt50 /C granular multilayers were measured at both the Fe and Pt L2,3 edges. We demonstrate that the partial L 10 ordering of the FePt nanoparticles induced by thermal annealing results in an increase of the effective spin magnetic moments by 200% at the Fe site and by 65% at the Pt site, while the orbit
Information from Management Welcome back to a new semester! Hopefully you’ve had a good summer and some time for relaxing. We are now looking forward to continuing working together in education, research, cooperation and supporting tasks in the field of Environmental and climate science! Next week we warmly welcome Professor Nina Buchmann as a guest researcher at CEC, Natascha Kljun being her host

Part of the Sound Studies Lecture Series NIKOLAOS GEORGIOS VARDAXIS Acoustics refers to the science of sound, its properties and propagation, while the same term is often used to refer to sound qualities of an environment, an indoor space or somewhere outdoors. This lecture offers an introduction to basic acoustic concepts such as sound pressure levels, which is the most essential quantity when de

Self-consistent dynamics of non-homogeneous fluctuations and homogeneous and isotropic condensate of Yang–Mills fields was investigated in zero, linear and quasilinear approximations over the wave modes in the framework of N = 4 supersymmetric model in Hamilton gauge in quasiclassical theory. The models with SU(2), SU(3) and SU(4) gauge groups were considered. Particle production effect and effect
Scaffold hybridization of several natural and synthetic anticancer leads led to the consideration of indenoindolones as potential novel anticancer agents. A series of these compounds were prepared by a diversity-feasible synthetic method. They were found to possess anticancer activities with higher potency compared to etoposide and 5-fluorouracil in kidney cancer cells (HEK 293) and low toxicity t
Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a vital part of aerospace manufacturing due to high demands for quality and safety. Advances in materials science have given rise to aerospace composites with highly improved properties compared to traditional materials. To ensure that materials can be used safely, NDT techniques are continuously improved to follow advances in materials. This has also spurred devel
This dissertation covers studies of excited state processes in two types of solar energy materials: alternating polyfluorene polymers and their blends with fullerenes in the active layer of plastic solar cells, and bis-tridentate RuII-polypyridyl complexes to be used as sensitizer in systems for artificial photosynthesis. The polymer:fullerene blends were studied by transient absorption and time-
Italian professor of automatic control and expert in nonlinear and hybrid system control theory and the applications to traffic control, smart grids, and biological systems (b. 1953) Maria Domenica Di Benedetto is an Italian engineer and professor of automatic control. She is mainly known for her advances in the science of nonlinear and hybrid system control theory and its many applications to tra
This study contributes to the establishment of frequency recommendations for use in coda wave interferometry structural health monitoring (SHM) systems for concrete structures. To this end, codas with widely different central frequencies were used to detect boreholes with different diameters in a large concrete floor slab, and to track increasing damage in a small concrete beam subjected to bendin
Access to local nearshore wave climate conditions on a detailed spatial scale is important for many coastal engineering practices. These include assessing the flood risk of coastal infrastructure, designing coastal protection measures, and estimating sediment transport processes and wave run-up. The present study displays a multi-scale wave modelling approach using the numerical wave model SWAN (B
The widespread international interest in the Nordic region and the mobility of Nordic brand imaginaries call for more research into the global relevance of Nordic place-branding practices. This book offers a timely attempt to unpack the specificity of the Nordic in regard to place branding by gathering different transdisciplinary accounts written by researchers in marketing, tourism, geography, co
Wave damping in vegetation in shallow lakes reduces resuspension and thereby improves the light climate and decreases nutrient recycling. In this study, wave transformation in reed (Phragmites australis) was measured in a shallow lake. Theoretical models of wave height decay, based on linear wave theory, and transformation of the probability density function (PDF), using a wave-by-wave approach, w
