Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Recent reports on laser excitation of the low-energy thorium-229 (
Th) nuclear isomeric state in calcium fluoride single crystals render this system a promising candidate for a solid-state nuclear clock. However, experimental characterization of the microscopic ion arrangement around the doped
Th and its electronic charge state, crucial for the precise control of the clock transition and assessing the solid-state clock's performance, remains an unresolved task. This study uses X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy of
Th:CaF
to investigate the charge state and coordination environment of doped
Th. The results indicate that
Th is doped with a 4+ valence at the substitutional site of the Ca
ion, with charge compensated provided by two F
ions located at interstitial sites adjacent to
Th.

Times Cited Count:19 Percentile:66.52(Nanoscience & Nanotechnology)We evaluated the structural change of the cathode material Li
MnO
that was deposited as an epitaxial film with an (001) orientation in an all-solid-state battery. In case of the electrode with LiPO
coating. Experiments revealed a structural change to a high-capacity (activated) phase that proceeded gradually and continuously with cycling. The activated phase barely showed any capacity fading. We propose a mechanism of structural change with cycling: charging to a high voltage at a sufficiently low Li concentration typically induces irreversible transition to a phase detrimental to cycling that could, but not necessarily, be accompanied by the dissolution of Mn and/or the release of O into the electrolyte, while a gradual irreversible transition to an activated phase happens at a similar Li concentration under a lower voltage.

Rare earths (4
) and actinides (5
) provide variety of interesting states realized with competing interactions between the increasing number of
electrons. Since crystal field splitting of many-body
electron system is smaller than the bandwidth, (1) high resolution experiments are needed, (2) essentially no clear spectrum with well defined peaks is expected in itinerant Ce and U compounds, and (3) Np and Pu is strictly regulated. Therefore, systematic research on magnetic excitations by neutron scattering experiments of localized compounds and rare earth iso-structural reference is useful. We describe the
electron states of heavy electron compounds NpPd
Al
and actinide and rare earth based iso-structural family.

The neutron instruments suite, installed at the spallation neutron source of the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), is reviewed. MLF has 23 neutron beam ports and 21 instruments are in operation for user programs or are under commissioning. A unique and challenging instrumental suite in MLF has been realized via combination of a high-performance neutron source, optimized for neutron scattering, and unique instruments using cutting-edge technologies. All instruments are/will serve in world-leading investigations in a broad range of fields, from fundamental physics to industrial applications. In this review, overviews, characteristic features, and typical applications of the individual instruments are mentioned.

Times Cited Count:6 Percentile:27.08(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We investigated the magnetization process of Fe (110) film using the field dependence of magnetic Compton scattering and M
ssbauer spectroscopy. From the magnetic Compton profiles, the spin and orbital magnetic moment specific magnetization versus magnetizing field curves were obtained. From the M
ssbauer spectra, the angles between the magnetizing field and the magnetic moment were obtained. It was found that the magnetizing field dependence of the ratio between orbital moment and spin moment was related to the angles between the magnetizing field and the magnetic moment. We indicate that the magnetic field dependence of the orbital magnetic moment plays a role in the magnetization process.

by exploring the magnetic anisotropy and spin dynamics. The combination of neutron scattering and magnetic susceptibility measurements reveals that the origin of the in-plane anisotropy is an antiferro-type interaction of the spin-nematic operator. The relation between the nematic operator and the electric polarization in the ligand symmetry of this compound is presented. The introduction of the spinnematic interaction is useful to understand the physics of spin and electric dipole in multiferroic compounds.
