In Section XIII.1, using a gedanken experiment with the Stern-Gerlach apparatus it is shown that a polarized beam (a pure state) cannot be split by the magnetic field, and that the splitting of such ...

Ab initio configuration interaction (CI) calculations are reported for different electronic configurations of the two model iront II) porphyrin complexes, the four-coordinate FeP molecule and its dioxygen complex FePO_2, in order to assign the ground state configurations. For FeP (in an intermediate spin state S=l) the...

1. A number of new square planar o-semiquinone complexes of rhodium(I) with neutral ligands have been synthesized. 2. A clearly expressed dependence of the frquency of the M-SQ charge-transfer band on the nature of the neutral and SQ ligands in square complexes of rhodium(I) has been discovered. 3. An evaluation of the...

This paper reviews the application of the perturbed angular correlation (PAC/D) technique to studies of rare earth hyperfine interactions. First, PAC/D measurements of the interaction of rare-earth nuclei with the large hyperfine fields of their own partially filled 4f electronic shell are discussed. It is shown that P...

Using the example of interactions with an external electromagnetic field, we consider the physical basis of describing fermions with spins 1/2 by means of a system of differential equations for a set of tensor fields (the Dirac-Kähler equations).

The g -tensor theory of low-spin d ^5 configuration in octahedral fields having axial (tetragonal or trigonal) and rhombic distorsions is summarised. Illustrations taken from literature concern the following ruthenium(III) species: Ru(H_2O) _6 ^3+ (trigonal), Ru(bpy) _3 ^3+ (trigonal), the Creutz-Taube cation (axial + ...

The polarization of electron/positron beams in storage rings is fundamentally governed by the quantized nature of synchrotron radiation. On the one hand, beams can become polarized by the Sokolov-Ternov spin-flip asymmetry of the photon emission, whereas on the other hand, the abrupt energy loss excites orbit oscillati...

Polarized electrons can be produced by photoionization of polarized atomic beams, which have high intensities when produced by six-pole magnets. The process has been investigated mainly with a view to building a source of polarized electrons.

In this chapter we present and discuss experimental results obtained from magnetic materials. First, we treat elastic and inelastic electron scattering from crystals and amorphous metals (Sect. 5.1). In Sect. 5.2 electron emission spectroscopies are presented, by means of which the exchange-split electronic structure o...

This chapter aims at providing an overview of collective magnetism in noncrystalline solids. It is descriptive in outlook, and sets out to relate some of the key ideas of amorphous magnetism to well-established concepts of magnetism in crystalline solids, stressing the points where something new emerges because of the ...

In this and the following chapter the results of electron scattering and electron emission experiments with magnetic and non-magnetic solids are presented. We shall treat spin-orbit and exchange interaction separately, though from a physical point of view this separation is somewhat artificial since both types of inter...

Experimental analysis of the photoelectron-spin polarization vector in photoionization using circularly polarized light (Fano effect^1) was up to 1984 restricted to angle-integrated measurements^2 without resolution of the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons corresponding to different ionic states. With the developmen...

The discovery that interaction effects with disorder give anomalous correction terms^1 to the normal Fermi liquid behaviour of an electron system has changed in the last few years our views on the possible interpretations of the metal-insulator transition in the various cases. One cannot advocate any more either the An...

The interplay between electron localization and superconductivity is discussed for two-dimensional and three-dimensional systems. In the two-dimensional case (thin films) theory and experiments on T_c depression, critical field and the effect of superconductivity fluctuations are reviewed and compared. In the three-dim...

The Fermi liquid theory of Anderson lattices is developed to describe coherent states of Kondo lattices at low temperatures. The origin of heavy electrons is the spin fluctuation nearly confined within each single f site; the situation is similar to that in dilute Kondo alloys. On the basis of the Fermi liquid theory, ...

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy at low temperatures can provide detailed electronic and magnetic properties of reactive molecules, such as their multiplicities, zero-field splittings, and hyperfine interaction constants. This has proved to be particularly valuable in the study of small transition metal molec...
