The radio-frequency spectrum of B11 in a single crystal of Na2B4O7∙4H2O (kernite) is examined experimentally as the monoclinic crystal is rotated in an external magnetic field of 7060 gauss in turn about each of three axes (b, c crystallographic axes, and a third perpendicular direction) held normal to the magnetic field. A maximum of 21 lines (some of which show small additional splitting) is observed, which reduces to 11 when the b symmetry axis is perpendicular or parallel to the magnetic field. The results are interpreted in terms of four essentially non-equivalent B11 sites in kernite characterized respectively by quadrupole coupling constants [Formula: see text], 0.588 ± 0.003, 2.563 ± 0.007, 2.567 ± 0.010 Mc./sec, and asymmetry parameters 77 [Formula: see text], 0.60 ± 0.02, 0.163 ± 0.010, 0.116 ± 0.010. The orientations of the principal axes of the four [Formula: see text] tensors are also determined. These observations on boron are consistent with previous X-ray results, but preliminary observations on Na23 in kernite contradict previous X-ray position assignments.

By single crystal 35C1-NQR Zeeman spectroscopy, the five independent 35Cl nuclear quadrupole coupling tensors in a-parachloral, (Cl3CCHO)3, have been studied at 24 ± 2 °C. The directions of the electric field gradient (EFG) tensor components have been determined. The principal axes Φ are within ± 0.8° parallel to the C-Cl bond directions found by X-ray diffraction. Very small asymmetry parameters in the range 0.002 ≦ η ≦ 0.046 are characteristic for the EFG tensors of chlorine atoms bound to carbon atoms in aliphatic systems. The five nuclear quadrupole coupling constants are in the range 76.752 ≦ e2qQh-1/MRz ≦ 78.155. The orientation of the principal axes Φxx and Φyy can be correlated to the molecular structure.

Abstract A total of about 37 000 diffracted intensities has been measured at 20 K for a spherical single crystal of citrinin. Using a multipole formalism to interpret the X-ray data, maps of the charge density and of its Laplacian, as well as for the electrostatic potential have been derived. A value of 7(2) D has been obtained for the magnitude of the molecular dipole moment. A study of the electric field gradient (EFG) at the nuclei has yielded the atomic quadrupole coupling constants (QCC) and asymmetry parameters (η). A topological analysis of the charge density has been performed to characterize the intramolecular covalent and hydrogen bonds.

A single crystal of tetrachloro(0,0-pivaloylato)antimony(V) has been studied at 77 K, byZeeman perturbed 35Cl NQR, using a FT-NQR pulsed spectrometer. The four lines at zero-field, ν1 = 27.6468, ν2= 27.3070, ν3= 25.7341 and ν4= 25.3438 MHz yield eight EFG tensors in themagnetic field, related by a twofold symmetry element in the crystal. The correspondingasymmetry parameters are η1, = 0.134, η2 = 0.13, η3= 0.07, and η4 = 0.09. The molecular structurededuced from the relative orientations of the principal Z-axes of the EFG tensors confirms that thehigher quadrupole coupling constants are associated with the chlorine atoms in equatorial positions,relative to the plane of the organic ligand, as predicted from NQR powder studies. It is concludedthat the crystal structure is monoclinic with two (class m or 2) or four (class 2/m) moleculesper unit cell. The molecular packing is such that the planes formed by equatorial or axial chlorineatoms are approximately at right angles to their symmetry related images.

The nuclear magnetic resonance of 59Co in a single crystal of Co(NH3)6Cl3 has been investigated at room temperature at 15 kG. Observed quadrupolar perturbations have been analyzed by the method of Volkoff for three orthogonal planes to yield five electric field gradient tensors. The cobalt sites associated with these tensors are nonequivalent. The quadrupole coupling constants and asymmetry parameters vary from 1.0 to 17.2 MHz and 0.10 to 0.57 respectively. One of the principal axes of each tensor is found to coincide with the crystallographic b axis of the monoclinic unit cell.

Abstract Three 81Br NQR resonance lines of KHgBr3 ·H2O were detected between 77 K and room temperature. From the Zeeman effect measurement on a single crystal the nuclear quadrupole coupling constants (e2qQ/h) and the asymmetry parameters (ƞ) were obtained, which are 228.42 MHz and 0.005, 226.24 MHz and 0.005, and 108.76 MHz and 0.465 for e2qQ/h and ƞ at 295 K, respectively. Large deviations of the observed directions of electric field gradient tensors from the directions expected from previous X-ray results have been found. With the present X-ray redetermination, 81Br NQR and structure are in good agreement. The structure and bonding in the compound are discussed.

AbstractBy single crystal NMR the nuclear quadrupole coupling constants eQΦzz h-1 (2H), the asymmetry parameters η(2H) and the direction cosines of the principal axes of the electric field gradient tensors of the 2H atoms of the two kinds of D2O molecules have been determined at 295 K in RbAl(SO4)2 · 12D2O. The results show that the D2O molecules surrounding the ion Al3+ are “static” within the time scale of the 2H nuclear quadrupole interaction while the D2O belonging to the octahedron around the Rb+ undergoes fast reorientations around the twofold molecular axis. For the two kinds of D2O in the alum we found: eQΦzz(1)h-1 (2H) = 186.5 kHz, η(1),(2H) = 0.1234; eQΦzz(2)h-1 (2H) = 169.7 kHz,η (2)(2H) = 0.1297; eQΦzz(3)h-1(2H) = 122.1 kHz, (2H) = 0.8087. eQΦzz(1) and eQΦzz(2) belong to the "static" D2O molecules and an assignment to the two different 2H atoms has been performed. The IR spectra of RbAl(SO4)2 · 12(H1-xDx)2O have been investigated, and for the O - D stretching frequencies values of 2145 cm-1 , 2235 cm-1 , 2470 cm-1 and 2525 cm -1 have been obtained. They agree well with the relations between ṽOD and eQΦzz h-1(2H) given in the literature.

AbstractWe analyze, using experiments and 3D MHD numerical simulations, the dynamic and radiative properties of a plasma ablated by a laser (1 ns, 10$$^{12}$$ 12 –10$$^{13}$$ 13 W/cm$$^2$$ 2 ) from a solid target as it expands into a homogeneous, strong magnetic field (up to 30 T) that is transverse to its main expansion axis. We find that as early as 2 ns after the start of the expansion, the plasma becomes constrained by the magnetic field. As the magnetic field strength is increased, more plasma is confined close to the target and is heated by magnetic compression. We also observe that after $$\sim 8$$ ∼ 8  ns, the plasma is being overall shaped in a slab, with the plasma being compressed perpendicularly to the magnetic field, and being extended along the magnetic field direction. This dense slab rapidly expands into vacuum; however, it contains only $$\sim 2\%$$ ∼ 2 % of the total plasma. As a result of the higher density and increased heating of the plasma confined against the laser-irradiated solid target, there is a net enhancement of the total X-ray emissivity induced by the magnetization.

We study the dependence of critical current j c on magnetic field H in superconducting polycrystals which are considered as systems of superconducting crystallites (isotropic or anisotropic) with Josephson contacts between them. Isotropy or anisotropy of contacts depends on the orientation of their crystallographic axes relatively to edges of contact planes. It is shown that for a system of randomly oriented isotropic contacts, the dependence j c (H) in a relatively wide field range has the asymptotic form j c ~( ln H)/H2. This differs drastically from j c (H) for single contacts. Anisotropy effects due to large differences in London penetration depth λ values corresponding to external magnetic field directed along different axes are analyzed in detail. It is shown that for uniaxal crystals with λ1=λ2≪λ3, this anisotropy leads to the relation [Formula: see text] for chaotic orientation of crystallites. The form of j c (H) curves for two different orientations of the magnetic field relatively to the transport current through the sample is found.
