Frustrated magnetism and caloric effects in Mn-based antiperovskite nitrides: Ab initio theory [PDF]
We model changes of magnetic ordering in Mn-antiperovskite nitrides driven by biaxial lattice strain at zero and at finite temperature. We employ a non-collinear spin-polarised density functional theory to compare the response of the geometrically ...

Caloric curve for finite nuclei in Thomas-Fermi theory [PDF]
In a finite temperature Thomas-Fermi theory with realistic nuclear interactions, we construct caloric curves for finite nuclei enclosed in a sphere of about $4 - 8$ times the normal nuclear volume.

Free living organisms typically occur in harsh environments challenged by abiotic stresses of varying intensities. Taking ionizing radiation and caloric restriction as examples, environmental variation from benign to extreme gives a fitness-stress ...

Caloric effects around phase transitions in magnetic materials described by ab initio theory: The electronic glue and fluctuating local moments [PDF]
We describe magneto-, baro-, and elastocaloric effects (MCEs, BCEs, and eCEs) in materials, which possess both discontinuous (first-order) and continuous (second-order) magnetic phase transitions.

Carnot and the Archetype of Waterfalls [PDF]
Carnot treats Heat as a Force of Nature, with its typical fundamental characteristics of intensity and thermal tension (temperature and temperature difference), extension (amount of heat, i.e., caloric), and power.

Carnot Theorem Revisited: A Critical Perspective [PDF]
After a brief review of Carnot’s everlasting contributions to the foundations of thermodynamics, we critically examine the consequences of the Carnot theorem, which leaves behind some lingering questions and confusion that persist even today. What is the

“Same Calories, Different Foods” – What do you choose? The role of construal level and age in shaping food choices [PDF]
IntroductionHealth-related food choices are often influenced by two central attributes: food type (such as healthy vs. less healthy) and food quantity (such as large vs. small portions).

Vestibular Atelectasis: A Narrative Review and Our Experience [PDF]
Vestibular atelectasis (VA) is a rare clinical entity characterized by a collapse of the endolymphatic space resulting in vestibular loss with the possible onset of positional and/or sound/pressure-induced vertigo.

Milankovitch, the father of paleoclimate modeling [PDF]
The history of the long-term variations in the astronomical elements used in paleoclimate research shows that, contrary to what might be thought, Milutin Milankovitch is not the father of the astronomical theory but he is definitely the father of ...
