Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We investigate the electronic state of Ni-substituted CeCoNiIn by nuclear quadrupole and magnetic resonance (NQR/NMR) techniques. The heavy fermion superconductivity below K for is suppressed by Ni substitutions, and reaches zero for . The In NQR spectra for and 0.25 can be explained by simulating the electrical field gradient that is calculated for a virtual supercell with density functional theory. The spin-lattice relaxation rate indicates that Ni substitution weakens antiferromagnetic correlations that are not localized near the substituent but instead are uniform in space. The temperature () dependence of for shows a maximum around K and decreases toward almost zero when temperature is further reduced as if a gap might be opening in the magnetic excitation spectrum; however, the magnetic specific heat and the static magnetic susceptibility evolve smoothly through with a dependence. The peculiar T dependence of and non-Fermi-liquid specific heat and susceptibility can be interpreted in a unified way by assuming nested antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations in a quasi-two-dimensional electronic system.

In nominally 7% Zn substituted CeCoIn, an antiferromagnetic (AFM) state coexists with heavy fermion superconductivity. Heterogeneity of the electronic states is investigated in Zn doped CeCoIn by means of nuclear quadrupole and magnetic resonances (NQR and NMR). Site-dependent NQR relaxation rates indicate that the AFM state is locally nucleated around Zn substituents in the matrix of a heavy fermion state, and percolates through the bulk at the AFM transition temperature . At lower temperatures, an anisotropic superconducting (SC) gap below the SC transition temperature , and the SC state permeates through the AFM regions via a SC proximity effect. Applying an external magnetic field induces a spin-flop transition near 5 T, reducing the volume of the AFM regions. Consequently, a short ranged inhomogeneous AFM state survives and coexists with a paramagnetic Fermi liquid state at high fields.

Uranium chalcogenides are highly interesting because of the variety of the physical properties from 5-based metal and Mott-Hibbard insulator. Especially dichalcogenide family exhibits a metal-insulator crossover depending on the chalcogenide elements, or under magnetic field and pressure. In this talk we present a recent result of our neutron scattering study on uranium dichalcogenide, which demonstrates that the metal-insulator crossover is related to the change of 5 character from localized to itinerant. The electronic structure related to this phenomenon is discussed based on the band calculation.

Times Cited Count:7 Percentile:49.06(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Very high field Si-NMR measurements using a fully Si-enriched URuSi single crystal were carried out in order to microscopically investigate the "hidden order" (HO) state and adjacent magnetic phases in the high field limit. At the lowest measured temperature of 0.4 K, a clear anomaly reflecting a Fermi surface instability near 22 T inside the HO state is detected by the Si shift, . Moreover, a strong enhancement of develops near a critical field T, and the Si-NMR signal disappears suddenly at , indicating the total suppression of the HO state. Nevertheless, a weak and shifted Si-NMR signal reappears for fields higher than at 4.2 K, providing evidence for a magnetic structure within the magnetic phase caused by the Ising-type anisotropy of the uranium ordered moments.

Times Cited Count:28 Percentile:67.71(Biotechnology & Applied Microbiology)An isolated strain ST13 was examined for the reducing activity of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)). XANES analysis of the precipitate shows the presence of Cr(OH), indicating the bacterial reduction of Cr(VI) to trivalent chromium (Cr(III)). The bacterial Cr(VI) reduction was more efficient in minimal medium supplemented with molasses than with glucose. These results strongly suggest that the isolate ST13 is a novel actinobacterium with Cr(VI) reducing activity that is stimulated by molasses.

Times Cited Count:8 Percentile:36.17(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We report NMR studies of TbCoGa, which has the tetragonal HoCoGa structure and exhibits two antiferromagnetic (AF) transitions at =36.2 K and =5.4 K. From a symmetry analysis of internal magnetic fields at orthorhombic Ga sites, we have successfully determined the magnetic structures in the AF-I () and AF-II () phases. The AF-I phase is a collinear AF order with a propagation vector and ordered moments parallel to the [001] direction. In the AF-II phase, on the other hand, we found a non-collinear AF structure described by double propagation vectors and , where the moments tilt away from the [001] direction toward [100], keeping a constant value along the [001] direction. In the context of these results we discuss the possible presence of magnetic frustration in this system.

Recurrent breast cancer has been considered the application for boron neutron capture therapy using the JRR-4. The investigation of irradiation conditions for the recurrent breast cancer was performed by simulation with the JCDS. We performed the preliminary dosimetry of the model to verify the efficient irradiation conditions such as the neutron energy modes and multiple field technique. From the result, when the 30 Gy-Eq dose as minimum dose was delivered to the cancers, comparable dose distribution was delivered at the healthy tissues by both a one-port irradiation from anterior direction and a two-port irradiation from tangential direction. We revealed that the two-port irradiation was not valid to reduce the healthy tissues dose due to the isotopic scattering of neutrons in the body. We concluded that the optimal irradiation condition was the one-port irradiation with thermal neutron beam mode in terms of less healthy tissues dose and shorter irradiation time.

Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:26.3(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)La NMR studies have been performed on PrPb substituted with 3% La. The temperature dependence of the local magnetic susceptibility around La ions has been extracted from the La Knight shift. These data show that the non-magnetic crystalline-electric-field (CEF) ground state (GS) is preserved even at the nearest neighboring Pr ions, although their CEF level scheme is slightly modified due to the La substitution. On the other hand, the temperature dependence of the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate is found to be well reproduced by assuming the same CEF level scheme over a wide temperature range. However, shows a strong upturn below 10 K, which is not expected from the non-magnetic CEF GS. We show that the low temperature anomaly can be quantitatively understood in terms of a cross-relaxation process between Pr and La nuclear spins.

We have succeeded to detect La-NMR signal on a powder sample of PrLaPb and extracted the temperature dependence of the Knight shift in a temperature range between 1.5 and 220 K. has been found to maintain a linear relation with the bulk-susceptibility in wide temperature range, except for a small deviation in the temperature region below 6 K.
