Ailion, David Charles | Nuclear magnetic resonance study of diffusion of bound and free fluorine interstitials in alkaline earth fluorides doped with trivalent impurities | When alkaline-earth fluorides are doped with trivalent impurities, interstitial fluorines are created to maintain charge neutrality. We have performed NMR dipolar-energy relaxation measurements over a wide temperature range and have observed the diffusion of both free and locally bound fluorine inte... | Diffusion; Motion; Crystals; NMR; Fluorine | 1979 |

Miller, Joel Steven | Potential technology directions of molecular metals | In the past decade, anisotropic molecular conductors have been found which possess unusual electrical, optical, magnetic, and in some cases mechanical properties. Exploiting these properties for specific devices is inevitable, and a number of diverse applications of molecular metals have been repor... | Molecular metals | 1979 |

Potts, Wayne K. | Gong method for capturing shorebirds and other ground-roosting species | In many shorebird studies it is necessary to capture adult birds. While shorebirds can often be trapped on the nest, capturing them away from the nest is usually very difficult and may require expensive equipment. After weeks of failure in our attempts to capture migrant and resident shorebirds in n... | Gong method; Shorebirds; Capture; Ground-roosting | 1979 |

Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Phonon anomalies in Cu halides | A great number of the observed phonon anomalies in the zinc-blende phase of Cu-halide crystals are explained by means of a dynamical model. It is assumed that a Cu ion populates four equivalent off-center sites or its ideal position.

Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Disorder-induced TA Raman lines in mixed Cu-halide crystals | The Raman spectra of CuClxBr1=x and CuBrxI1=x solid solutions are shown to contain extremely intense disorder-induced first-order TA phonons. The intensity of these lines is a function of the concentration x, and is highest in CuCl0.6oBr0.40. The TA spectrum, well resolved at low temperature, fits... | Cuprous halides; CuBr; CuCl; CuI; mixed Cu-halide crystals | 1979-03 |

Mattis, Daniel C. | Ground-state symmetry in XY model of magnetism | Numerical studies by Betts and Oitmaa have led those authors to conjecture that in the XY model the ground-state magnetization Mz is zero. This is a model of spins on a lattice with interactions - J(SnxSmx+SnySmy), that can also describe a hard-sphere boson fluid. In the present note I prove the c... | Ground state; Magnetization; Bipartite lattice | 1979-06 |
