The magnetic stability of {\delta}-plutonium is analyzed taking into account zero-point spin fluctuations. Within the generalized theory of spin fluctuations described within a simple phenomenological model neglecting its spatial dispersion…
Ab-initio relativistic dynamical mean-field theory is applied to resolve the long-standing controversy between theory and experiment in the "simple" face-centered cubic phase of plutonium called delta-Pu. In agreement with experiment,…
In comparison to 3d or 4f metals, magnetism in actinides remains poorly understood due to experimental complications and the exotic behavior of the 5f states. In particular, plutonium metal is most especially vexing. Over the last five…
The screening of magnetic moments in metals, the Kondo effect, is found to be quenched with a finite probability in the presence of nonmagnetic disorder. Numerical results for a disordered electron system show that the distribution of Kondo…
Electronic correlations associated with incipient magnetism have long been recognized as an important factor in stabilizing the largest atomic volume $\delta$ phase of plutonium, yet their strength compared to those in the rare earths and…
We report on the origin of ferromagnetic like behaviour observed for 2.4 nm size Pd nanoparticles. Localised magnetic moments on metallic surfaces have been recently shown to induce orbital motion of the itinerant electrons via spin-orbit…
A novel magnetic class blending ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism, termed altermagnetism, has gained significant attention for its staggered order in coordinate and momentum spaces, time-reversal symmetry-breaking phenomena, and…
(Pu) has an unusually rich phase diagram that includes seven distinct solid state phases and an unusually large 25% collapse in volume from its delta phase to its low temperature alpha phase via a series of structural transitions. Despite…
Plutonium is the most exotic and mysterious element in the periodic table. It has 6 metallic phases and peculiar physical properties not yet understood. One of the most intriguing properties of Pu is that relatively small changes of…
We study the electronic states of the magnetically ordered Mn3Pt alloy within the density functional theory. Mn3Pt has been believed that one third of Mn atoms have no magnetic moment in an antiferromagnetic phase (so-called the F-phase)…
The electron and muon magnetic moments have played, and continue to play, important roles in testing the fundamental mathematical description of physical reality called the Standard Model of particle physics (SM). The electron magnetic…
Local magnetic moments in disordered sytems can be described in terms of annealed magnetic disorder, in addition to the underlying quenched disorder. It is shown that for noninteracting electron systems at zero temperature, the annealed…
In low-dimensional magnets, thermal agitation and spatial disorders generate strong spin fluctuations that suppress the long-range magnetic ordering. We develop an analytical equation for the equilibrium magnetization of two-dimensional…
We analyze the criterion for the appearance of magnetic moments in quasicrystals approximants and liquids Al-Mn. In a Hartree-Fock scheme, it is shown that the Stoner criterion (Un_d(E_F) > 1) does not apply to these systems due to the…
We argue that at zero temperature an isolated metal particle (or an AB ring) with spin-orbit interaction and odd number of electrons will have a permanent magnetic moment, even in zero magnetic field (flux). In a zero-field-cooled state…
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…
Electron correlations tend to generate local magnetic moments that usually order if the lattices are not too frustrated. The hexagonal compound SrRu$_2$O$_6$ has a relatively high Neel temperature but small local moments, which seem to be…
A method is proposed for investigating the spontaneous magnetization, the spontaneous volume magnetostriction, and their relationship in disordered face-centered-cubic Fe$_{0.72}$Pt$_{0.28}$ and Fe$_{0.65}$Ni$_{0.35}$ in the temperature…
The temperature dependence of conductivity $\sigma (T)$ in the metallic phase of a two-dimensional electron system in silicon has been studied for different concentrations of local magnetic moments. The local moments have been induced by…
Motivated by the intrinsic non-Fermi-liquid behavior observed in the heavy-fermion quasicrystal $\mbox{Au}_{51}\mbox{Al}_{34}\mbox{Yb}_{15}$, we study the low-temperature behavior of dilute magnetic impurities placed in metallic…
