Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers are interesting materials in part because of their strong spin-orbit coupling. This leads to intrinsic spin-splitting of opposite signs in opposite valleys, so the valleys are intrinsically…
Pseudo-SU(3) shell-model results are reported for M1 excitation strengths in 157-Gd, 163-Dy and 169-Tm in the energy range between 2 and 4 MeV. Non-zero pseudo-spin couplings between the configurations play a very important role in…
We suggest that in an anisotropic crystal there should be a new mechanism of dichroism related to a scissors mode, a kind of excitation observed in several other many-body systems. Such an effect should be found in crystals, amorphous…
