Recent high-pressure x-ray diffraction studies of alkali metals revealed unusual complex structures that follow the body-centered and face-centered cubic structures on compression. The structural sequence of potassium under compression to 1…
The structural and vibrational properties of phenanthrene are measured at high pressures up to 30.2 GPa by Raman spectroscopy and synchrotron x-ray diffraction techniques. Two phase transitions are observed in raman spectra under pressures…
In this paper we suggest a novel explanation for the alpha-delta transition in plutonium based on an analogy between the evolution of the actinide ground state as a function of spin orbit coupling and the behaviour of thin film…
The influence of electronic structure evolution upon pressure on the temperature dependencies of electrical resistivity of pure Np, Pu, Am, and Cm metals have been investigated within coherent potential approximation (CPA) for many-bands…
We report here a study of reversible pressure-induced structural transformation between two amorphous forms of SO$_2$: molecular at pressures below 26 GPa and polymeric above this pressure, at temperatures of 77 - 300 K. The transformation…
Recent contrasting observations for halogen (X)-bridged binuclear platinum complexes R_4[Pt_2(P_2O_5H_2)_4X]nH_2O, that is, pressure-induced Peierls and reverse Peierls instabilities, are explained by finite-temperature Hartree-Fock…
The existence of second-order structural phase transition in the SnS at a pressure of 16 GPa has been proved theoretically. The calculation is performed using the plane-wave pseudopotential approach to density-functional theory within the…
Understanding the mechanism of structural phase transitions in rare-earth elements is a fundamental challenge in condensed matter physics, with significant implications for materials science applications. In this study, we present a…
Single crystals of XPt$_{5}$P (X = Al, Ga, and In) were grown from a Pt-P solution at high temperatures, and ambient-pressure measurements of temperature-dependent magnetization, resistivity, and X-ray diffraction were made. Also, the…
This study explores the pressure evolution of the double perovskite Ba$_2$NiTeO$_6$ by employing experimental and computational techniques. For the study of structural and vibrational properties, synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) and…
Recent high pressure work has suggested that elemental barium forms a high pressure self-hosting structure (Ba IV) involving two `types' of barium atom. Uniquely among reported elemental structures it cannot be described by a single…
The role of configuration mixing in the Pt region is investigated. For this chain of isotopes, the nature of the ground state changes smoothly, being spherical around mass $A\sim 174$ and $A\sim 192$ and deformed around the mid-shell N=104…
Plutonium (Pu), in which the 5$f$ valence electrons always wander the boundary between localized and itinerant states, exhibits quite complex crystal structures and unprecedentedly anomalous properties with respect to temperature and…
The ambient-temperature high-pressure behaviour of (La0.2Nd0.2Sm0.2Gd0.2Yb0.2)2Zr2O7 zirconate (HEZ) nanopowders with three different average particle sizes (~25nm, ~45 nm and ~ 68nm) were studied using synchrotron X-ray diffraction…
The actinide elemental metals are scare, often toxic and radio active, causing challenges for both experiments and theory while offering fascinating physics. For practical purposes they are the prevalent building blocks for materials where…
A structural transition at $T\approx 322$ K from the $Pmmm$ to $Pmma$ phase is found to coincide with an anomaly of resistivity. Another structural phase transition doubling the lattice parameter $c$, which has been postulated earlier to…
We report on the crystal structure and electronic properties of the heavy fermion superconductor UTe2 at high pressure up to 11 GPa, as investigated by X-ray diffraction and electrical resistivity experiments. The X-ray diffraction…
High-sensitivity $^{27}$Al nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements of aluminum metal under hydrostatic pressure of up to 10.1 GPa reveal an unexpected negative curvature in the pressure-dependence of the electronic density of states…
Structural changes in REMnO3 (RE= Y, Ho, Lu) under high pressure were examined by synchrotron x-ray diffraction methods at room temperature. Compression occurs more readily in the ab plane than along the c-axis. Under hydrostatic pressure…
Electronic structure of bcc Np, fcc Pu, Am, and Cm pure metals under pressure has been investigated employing the LDA+U method with spin-orbit coupling (LDA+U+SO). Magnetic state of the actinide ions was analyzed in both LS and jj coupling…
