The magnetite-based receptors in the beak of birds and their role in avian navigation [PDF]
Iron-rich structures have been described in the beak of homing pigeons, chickens and several species of migratory birds and interpreted as magnetoreceptors.

The identification and biogeochemical interpretation of fossil magnetotactic bacteria [PDF]
Magnetotactic bacteria, which most commonly live within the oxic-anoxic transition zone (OATZ) of aquatic environments, produce intracellular crystals of magnetic minerals, specifically magnetite or greigite.

Simulation of Porous Magnetite Deposits on Steam Generator Tubes in Circulating Water at 270 °C
In the secondary side of pressurized water reactors (PWRs), the main corrosion product accumulated on the steam generator (SG) tubes is magnetite, which has a porous structure. The purpose of this work is to simulate the porous magnetite deposited to the

Microtextures and microintergrowths of irontitanium-aluminium oxide minerals in a magmatic tinaniferous iron ore from Attu island, southwestern Finland [PDF]
Microtextures of coexisting magnetite, ilmenite and aluminous spinel and their chemical composition have been studied in a magmatic titaniferous iron ore from Attu Island in south-western Finland.

Magnetosome vesicles are present before magnetite formation, and MamA is required for their activation [PDF]
Bacterial magnetosomes are intracellular compartments that house highly ordered magnetite crystals. By using Magnetospirillum sp. AMB-1 as a model system, we show that magnetosome vesicles exist in the absence of magnetite, biomineralization of magnetite

We report high-pressure low-temperature Raman studies of the Verwey transition in pure and Al-doped magnetite (Fe_3O_4). The low temperature phase of magnetite displays a number of additional Raman modes that serve as transition markers. These transition

Nanocomposite Fe1xO=Fe3O4, Fe=Fe1xO thin films prepared by RF sputtering and revealed by magnetic coupling effects [PDF]
Magnetic and semi-conducting nanocomposite iron oxide thin films have been prepared under bias polarization, by radio-frequency sputtering of a magnetite target. The nature of the phases obtained in the thin films depends on the bias power density.
