The literature on vibrational thermodynamics of materials is reviewed. The emphasis is on
metals and alloys, especially on the progress over the last decade in understanding …

We provide detailed background, theoretical and practical, on the specific heat of minerals
and mixtures thereof,'astro-materials,'as well as background information on common …

We use bulk magnetic susceptibility, electronic specific heat, and neutron scattering to study
structural and magnetic phase transitions in Fe 1+ y Se x Te 1− x. Fe 1.068 Te exhibits a first …

We report on (1) direct measurements of ΔT ad for binary Fe 49 Rh 51 during field cycling
and (2) maximum possible ΔT ad measured under discontinuous protocol. Our results show …

The development of cryogenic semiconductor electronics and superconducting quantum
computing requires composite materials that can provide both thermal conduction and …

The most widespread cooling techniques based on gas compression/expansion encounter
environmental problems. Thus, tremendous effort has been dedicated to develop alternative …

The element plutonium occupies a unique place in the history of chemistry, physics,
technology, and international relations. After the initial discovery based on submicrogram …

We report the synthesis and basic physical properties of single crystals of CaFe 2 As 2, a
compound isostructural to BaFe 2 As 2 which has been recently doped to produce …

Many theories published in the last decade propose that either ordered or disordered local
moments are present in elemental plutonium at low temperatures. We present new …
