In this work, a measurement setup to study the Seebeck and Nernst effect at high temperatures and high magnetic fields is introduced and discussed. The measurement system allows for simultaneous measurements of both thermoelectric effects up to 700 K and magnetic fields up to 12 T. Based on theoretical concepts, measurement equations are derived that counteract constant spurious offset voltages and, therefore, inhibit systematic errors in the measurement setup. The functionality is demonstrated on polycrystalline samples of elemental bismuth as well as various full-Heusler materials, exhibiting an anomalous Nernst effect. In all samples, the measured Seebeck and Nernst coefficients align excellently with the reported values. This allows future research to substantially extend the measured temperature and field intervals, commonly limited to temperatures below room temperature. For the first time, the thermoelectric and thermomagnetic properties of these materials are reported up to temperatures of 560 K.

Among the numerous measurements carried out during a well-logging procedure, the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) assessment is one of the fundamental analyses in determining the economic viability of a well for the oil industry. Nowadays, two reliable approaches, Wireline Logging (WL) and Logging While Drilling (LWD), stand out. WL comprises the acquisition of NMR data under static conditions.

The challenge of imaging low-density objects in an electron microscope without causing beam damage is significant in modern transmission electron microscopy. This is especially true for life science imaging, where the sample, rather than the instrument, still determines the resolution limit. Here, we explore whether we have to accept this or can progress further in this area.

Controlling the structure of polymer solutions near a solid surface is crucial for many industrial processes as it significantly impacts solution flow and influences slip at the interface. To date, only a few techniques have been developed to experimentally investigate this type of interface at the nanometric scale of solid/liquid interactions. In this study, we probe the interface between a smooth sapphire surface and a semidilute polystyrene solution, using neutron reflectivity.

Measurements of changes in fluorescence signal is one of the most commonly applied methods for studying protein-ligand affinities. These measurements are generally carried out using cuvettes in spectrofluorometers, which can only measure one sample at a time. This makes screening procedures for multiple ligands and proteins extremely laborious, as each protein must be measured with multiple ligand concentrations, and usually in triplicate.
