The debye-waller factor in spincrossover molecular crystals: a mössbauer study on [FexZn1−x(ptz)6](BF4)2

In a first approximation the Debye-Waller factor (DWF) of molecular crystals is factorized into a molecular and a lattice part:f=f m f l. In the case of spincrossover compounds there is the unique possibility to measure differences of both parts in the two spin states by switching the spin states with the LIESST effect. Measurements of the DWF depending on temperature, γ-ray direction and spin state were performed with57Fe-Mossbauer spectroscopy on three single crystals (R¯3) of the spincrossover system [FexZn1−x(ptz)6](BF4)2 (ptz=1-propyltetrazole), a concentrated sample withx=1 and diluted ones withx=0.30 andx=0.005. The DWF decreases from 10 to 300 K by a factor of ∼ 100 and its anisotro…

Unveiling the strong interaction among hadrons at the LHC

One of the key challenges for nuclear physics today is to understand from first principles the effective interaction between hadrons with different quark content. First successes have been achieved using techniques that solve the dynamics of quarks and gluons on discrete space-time lattices1,2. Experimentally, the dynamics of the strong interaction have been studied by scattering hadrons off each other. Such scattering experiments are difficult or impossible for unstable hadrons3–6 and so high-quality measurements exist only for hadrons containing up and down quarks7. Here we demonstrate that measuring correlations in the momentum space between hadron pairs8–12 produced in ultrarelativistic…

Λc+ Production and Baryon-to-Meson Ratios in pp and p -Pb Collisions at sNN=5.02  TeV at the LHC

The prompt production of the charm baryon Λ c + and the Λ c + / D 0 production ratios were measured at midrapidity with the ALICE detector in p p and p -Pb collisions at s NN = 5.02 TeV . These new measurements show a clear decrease of the Λ c + / D 0 ratio with increasing transverse momentum ( p T ) in both collision systems in the range 2 p T 12 GeV / c , exhibiting similarities with the light-flavor baryon-to-meson ratios p / π and Λ / K S 0 . At low p T , predictions that include additional color-reconnection mechanisms beyond the leading-color approximation, assume the existence of additional higher-mass charm-baryon states, or include hadronization via coalescence can describe the dat…
