(57)Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy has been used to investigate the structural and magnetic phase transitions of CaFe₂As₂ (T(N) = 173 K) single crystals. For this compound we found that V(ZZ) is positive and parallel to the c-axis of the tetragonal structure. For CaFe₂As₂ a magnetic hyperfine field B(hf) was observed at the (57)Fe nucleus below T(N) ~173 K. Analysis of the temperature dependence of B(hf) data using the Bean-Rodbell model shows that the Fe spins undergo a first-order magnetic transition at ~173 K. A collinear antiferromagnetic structure is established below this temperature with the Fe spin lying in the (a, b) plane. Below T(N) the paramagnetic fraction of Fe decreases down to 150 K and for lower temperatures all the Fe spins are magnetically ordered.

Generosity through donation plays a crucial role in reducing inequality and influencing human behavior. However, previous research on donation has overlooked individuals' acceptance of the extent of inequality, which acts as a trigger for donation. To address this gap, this paper systematically explores the impact of donation based on inequality tolerance on the evolution of cooperation in spatial public goods game.

Vitrimers are sustainable cross-linked polymers characterized by an associative bond exchange mechanism within their network. A well-known feature of vitrimers is the Arrhenius dependence of the viscosity or relaxation time. Another important aspect is the existence of a topology-freezing temperature (), which represents a transition between the viscoelastic solid state and the malleable viscoelastic liquid state.

The isomerization kinetics of a liquid crystalline azobenzene dimer, comprising cyanoazobenzene and naphthalene (NAZ6), were investigated at the air-water interface. The Langmuir monolayers of NAZ6 in both its and states were analyzed using surface manometry techniques. The results revealed that NAZ6 molecules in the -state displayed the coexistence of a disordered liquid-expanded phase and an ordered liquid-condensed phase, whereas no such phase transition was observed in the -state.

We analyzed the thermal, structural, and dynamic properties of maghemite using classical molecular dynamics, focusing on bulk and nanoparticle systems. We explored their behavior when heated to high temperatures (above the melting point) and during cooling, as well as under thermal cycles ending at intermediate temperatures. Our findings show that in the bulk system, both the tetrahedral and octahedral iron sub-lattices undergo a phase transition prior to melting.
