We present a calculation of the hyperfine splitting of the 2^{3}S state in the ^{3}He atom with inclusion of all QED effects up to α^{3}E_{F}, where E_{F} is the Fermi splitting. Using the experimental value of the 1S hyperfine splitting in ^{3}He^{+}, we eliminate uncertainties from the nuclear structure and obtain the theoretical prediction for ^{3}He of ν_{hfs}=-6 739 701 181(41)  Hz, which is in perfect agreement with the experimental value -6 739 701 177(16)  Hz [S. D. Rosner and F. M. Pipkin, Phys. Rev. A 1, 571 (1970)PLRAAN0556-279110.1103/PhysRevA.1.571]. This result constitutes a 40-fold improvement in precision as compared to the previous value and is the most accurate theoretical prediction ever obtained for a nonhydrogenic system.

We introduce a computational methodology for evaluating and analyzing spin-vibration couplings in molecular systems, enabling insights into the interplay between electronic spins and molecular vibrations. By mapping ab initio electronic structure calculations onto molecular spin Hamiltonians, our approach captures those vibrational interactions potentially driving spin relaxation process. Spin-vibration couplings, derived from Holstein and Peierls terms, highlight the pivotal role of vibrational mode symmetry in spin decoherence and efficient energy dissipation.

Noncollinear Magnetic Structures in the Chiral Antiperovskite β-FeSeO.

Inorg Chem

Centre for Materials Science and Nanotechnology (SMN), Department of Chemistry, University of Oslo, Oslo N-0371, Norway.

We present the magnetic properties of the chiral, polar, and possibly magnetoelectric antiperovskite β-FeSeO as derived from magnetization and specific-heat measurements as well as from powder neutron diffraction and Mössbauer experiments. Our macroscopic data unambiguously reveal two magnetic phase transitions at ≈ 103 K and ≈ 78 K, while Rietveld analysis of neutron powder diffraction data reveals a noncollinear antiferromagnetic structure featuring magnetic moments in the - plane of the trigonal structure and a ferromagnetic moment along . The latter is allowed by symmetry between and , weakly visible in the magnetization data yet unresolvable microscopically.

In this study, we analyze a series of molecules belonging to the C(M) molecular symmetry group which are characterized by several conformers. The use of molecular symmetry at each stage of calculating the energy of stationary torsional states is demonstrated. In particular, the importance is shown of preliminary symmetrization of physical characteristics of the molecules obtained by quantum chemical calculations.

Evidence for nematic fluctuations in FeSe superconductor: aFe Mössbauer spectroscopy study.

J Phys Condens Matter

October 2024

School of Physical Science and Technology, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, People's Republic of China.

There has been controversy about the driving force of the nematic order in the FeSe superconductor. Here, we present a detailed study of theFe Mössbauer spectra of FeSe single-crystal powders, focusing on the temperature dependences of the hyperfine parameters in the vicinity of the nematic transition temperature,∼ 90 K. The nematicity-induced splitting ofandbands, obtained from the anomalous increase in quadrupole splitting near, starts at 143 K.

Nuclear spin isomers of molecules play a pivotal role in our understanding of quantum mechanics and can have significant implications for various fields. In this work, we report the isolation and characterization of stable nuclear spin isomers as well as conformational isomers of a reactive compound, namely carbonyl diisothiocyanate. It can exist as three rotational conformers, two of which, the - and -, were observed in a pulsed supersonic jet by chirped pulse Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy in the 2-12 GHz frequency region.
