Large high-quality type-II a diamond crystals in size of about 4.0 mm have been grown under the condition of 5.5 GPa and 1200–1300 degrees C by using the temperature gradient method in a domestic cubic anvil high-pressure apparatus. The Fe 55 Co 16 Ni 25 alloy (KOV) is used as the solvent metal, and Ti with the conten…

A phenomenological model is developed to describe the isotropic-chiral-smectic-C phase transition. The anomalous part of the heat capacity of the chiral-smectic-C liquid crystals above the isotropic-chiral-smectic-C phase transition is calculated using Landau's fluctuation theory. The temperature dependence of the hea…

The influence of succinylation on lysozyme is studied using circular dichroism, fluorescence spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry. The spectroscopic data reveal that at room temperature the structures of succinylated lysozyme and native lysozyme are similar. However, the calorimetric results show that t…

We present low-temperature heat and charge transport as well as caloric properties of a ThAsSe single crystal. An extra -AT(1/2) term in the electrical resistivity, independent of magnetic fields as high as 14 T, provides evidence for an unusual scattering of conduction electrons. Additionally, both the thermal conduc…
