Seismic Assessment of a Masonry Church and Retrofitting Propositions. Case study of the Kapela Sveti Nikola in Petrinja
The seismic assessment of historical unreinforced masonry buildings is a challenging task, because of their vulnerability to earthquakes and the uncertainties about the material properties. This work studies the case of the Kapela Sveti Nikola, a chapel in ...
2023Valence Orbitals Driving the Spin Dynamics in a Rare-Earth Single-Atom Magnet
Harald Brune, François Patthey, Stefano Rusponi, Marina Pivetta, Dante Philippe Sblendorio, Alberto Curcella
We combine spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy with quantum master equation analysis to investigate the spin dynamics of the single atom magnet Dy on graphene/Ir(111). By performing reading and writing experiments, we show that the strongly spin p ...
AMER PHYSICAL SOC2023Dnp biosensor
Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Jonas Milani
Method for detecting a change in molecular tumbling of an electron-spin labelled system (1) in solution. Nuclear spins of the entire solution are measured in solution using Overhauser dynamic nuclear polarization in a first reference measurement, and then ...
2022Non-destructive Prediction of the Buckling Load of Cylindrical Shells
The current research focuses on the prediction of the maximum axial compression load a cylindrical shell is able to bear. This maximum axial compression load is the value at which a cylindrical shell loses stability and abruptly buckles. After the buckling ...
EPFL2022Effect of Co-Substitution on Hydrogen Absorption and Desorption Reactions of YMgNi4-Based Alloys
Andreas Züttel, Wen Luo, Heena Yang
YMgNi4-based alloys exhibit reversible hydrogen absorption and desorption reactions at near room temperature. Here, we report that Co-substituted YMgNi4-based alloys exhibited higher hydrogen contents and lower hydrogen absorption and desorption reaction p ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2022Postbuckling behavior and imperfection sensitivity of elastic-plastic periodic plate-lattice materials
Advances in additive manufacturing have enabled a new generation of materials with advantageous properties inherent to their architecture. Recently, architected materials with periodic arrangements of plates, called plate-lattice materials, have been devel ...
ELSEVIER2022Dynamical Control of Nuclear Isomer Depletion via Electron Vortex Beams
Fabrizio Carbone, Simone Gargiulo
Some nuclear isomers are known to store a large amount of energy over long periods of time, with a very high energy-to-mass ratio. Here, we describe a protocol to achieve the external control of the isomeric nuclear decay by using electron vortex beams who ...
AMER PHYSICAL SOC2022Weakness of Correlation Effect Manifestation in BaNi2As2: An ARPES and LDA plus DMFT Study
The electronic spectral function of BaNi2As2 is investigated using both angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and a combined computational scheme of local density approximation and dynamical mean-field theory (LDA + DMFT). In contrast to the we ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2021Measuring the Intra-Atomic Exchange Energy in Rare-Earth Adatoms
Harald Brune, François Patthey, Stefano Rusponi, Marina Pivetta
We present the first experimental determination of the intra-atomic exchange energy between the inner 4f and the outer 6s5d shells in rare-earth elements. Inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy on individual rare-earth atoms adsorbed on metal-supported ...
AMER PHYSICAL SOC2020Superexchange mechanism and quantum many body excitations in the archetypal di-Cu oxo-bridge
Edward Baxter Linscott, Cédric Weber
The hemocyanin protein binds and transports molecular oxygen via two copper atoms at its core. The singlet state of the Cu2O2 core is thought to be stabilised by a superexchange pathway, but detailed in situ computational analysis is complicated by the mul ...
