Problems of the experimental observation of the birefringence of high-energy gamma-quanta propagating in single crystals are discussed.
We propose a mechanical-hydrodynamical experimental setup in which the microfluidic motion manipulates the optical birefringence of levitated graphene oxide liquid crystal. The birefringence of the sample is changed by flowing graphene…
The source of fluorine is not well understood, although core-collapse supernovae, Wolf-Rayet stars, and asymptotic giant branch stars have been suggested. A search for evidence of the nu process during Type II supernovae is presented.…
A previously unknown thermodynamically stable high-pressure phase of BeF$_{2}$ has been predicted using the evolutionary algorithm USPEX. This phase occurs in the pressure range 18-27 GPa. Its structure has $C2/c$ space group symmetry and…
We measured the Fermi surface (FS), band dispersion and superconducting gap in LuNi2B2C using Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy. Experimental data were compared with the tight-binding version of the Linear Muffin-Tin Orbital (LMTO)…
Recently, we reported the observation of superconductivity at ~0.5 K in a La2O2M4S6-type (M: metal) layered oxychalcogenide La2O2Bi3AgS6, which is a layered compound related to the BiS2-based superconductor system but possesses a thicker…
Stimulated Brillouin scattering with both pump and Stokes beams in resonance with whispering gallery modes of an ultra high Q CaF_2 resonator is demonstrated for the first time. The resonator is pumped with 1064 nm light and has a Brillouin…
(Abridged abstract) Alloyed MgB2 differs from pure forms in that diffusion is needed to distribute the alloying elements homogeneously. Williamson-Hall analyses of x-ray diffraction peaks showed that Mg1-xAlxB2 samples made by a typical…
We present a combined growth and transport study of superconducting single-crystalline NdO$_{0.5}$F$_{0.5}$BiS$_2$. Evidence of two-dimensional superconductivity with significant phase fluctuations of preformed Cooper pairs preceding the…
Crystal structure and properties of a new member of oxy-bismuth-sulfide SmO1-xFxBiS2 are reported here. The compounds SmO1-xFxBiS2 (x = 0.0 and 0.5) are found to be isostructural with LaOBiS2 and crystallize in the CeOBiS2 type structure…
We present observations of H_2 fluorescence at wavelengths between 1000 and 1200 A from the bright reflection nebula IC 63. Observations were performed with the Berkeley spectrograph on the ORFEUS-SPAS II mission. To the best of our…
High resolution laser-based angle-resolved photoemission measurements were carried out on an overdoped $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta}$ superconductor with a Tc of 75 K. Two Fermi surface sheets caused by bilayer splitting are clearly…
The electronic structure of nearly optimally-doped novel superconductor LaO$_{1-x}$F$_x$BiS$_2$ (${\it x}$ = 0.46) was investigated using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). We clearly observed band dispersions from 2 to 6 eV…
Qian et al [1] recently reported angular-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements for Na0.8CoO2 that show two concentric Fermi surfaces (FS) split by a delta k_F that varies by a factor of three around the Brillouin zone…
We report three new barium (Ba) dwarfs lying in Sirius-like systems, which provides direct evidence that Ba dwarfs are companions to white dwarfs (WDs). Atmospheric parameters, stellar masses, and chemical abundances of 25 elements,…
The discrepancy between cosmological Li abundance inferred from Population II dwarf stars and that derived from WMAP/BBNS is still far from being solved.We investigated, as an alternative route, the use of Li abundances in Population II…
Here we report the synthesis and discovery of superconductivity in a novel ternary iridium-arsenide compound BaIr2As2. The polycrystalline BaIr2As2 sample was synthesized by a high temperature and high pressure method. Crystal structural…
We report observations of quantum oscillations in single crystals of the high temperature superconductor MgB_2. Three de Haas-van Alphen frequencies are clearly resolved. Comparison with band structure calculations strongly suggests that…
Superconductivity was achieved in Ti-doped iron-arsenide compound Sr4Cr0.8Ti1.2O6Fe2As2 (abbreviated as Cr-FeAs-42622). The x-ray diffraction measurement shows that this material has a layered structure with the space group of…
In this contribution we discuss the use of the surface Li abundance in lower RGB stars as alternative diagnostic of the primordial Li abundance. These stars are located in the portion of the RGB after the completion of the First Dredge-Up…
