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.

Tunability of the spin reorientation transitions with pressure in NdCo5 [PDF]
We present pressure-dependent magnetization measurements carried out in the domain of the spin reorientation transitions (SRTs) of a NdCo5 single crystal. The application of a hydrostatic pressure leads to a shift in the SRTs to higher temperatures. This

High-resolution resonant inelastic soft X-ray scattering as a probe of the crystal electrical field in lanthanides demonstrated for the case of CeRh2Si2 [PDF]
The magnetic properties of rare earth compounds are usually well captured by assuming a fully localized f shell and only considering the Hund's rule ground state multiplet split by a crystal electrical field (CEF).

Galvanic corrosion of aluminium–copper model alloys [PDF]
Galvanic coupling between different α and θ phase-containing model Al–Cu alloys, deposited by magnetron sputtering, has revealed that the anodic α phase did not suffer corrosion and remained in the passive state in sulphate solution. Conversely, sulphate

Corrosion inhibition of 2024 aluminium alloy by sodium decanoate [PDF]
The present study concerns the corrosion protection of the aluminium alloy (AA) 2024 by sodium decanoate (a long-carbon-chain carboxylate). This compound-type is known to form hydrophobic films on the metal surface. The characterization of the inhibition

H-T Phase Diagram of Rare-Earth -- Transition Metal Alloy in the Vicinity of the Compensation Point [PDF]
Anomalous hysteresis loops of ferrimagnetic amorphous alloys in high magnetic field and in the vicinity of the compensation temperature have so far been explained by sample inhomogeneities.

Single crystal growth and characterization of the large-unit-cell compound Cu13Ba [PDF]
Single crystals of Cu$_{13}$Ba were successfully grown out of Ba-Cu self flux. Temperature dependent magnetization, $M(T)$, electrical resistivity, $\rho(T)$, and specific heat, $C_p(T)$, data are reported.

A N\'eel-type antiferromagnetic order in the spin 1/2 rare-earth honeycomb YbCl$_3$ [PDF]
Most of the searches for Kitaev materials deal with $4d/5d$ magnets with spin-orbit-coupled ${J=1/2}$ local moments such as iridates and $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$.
