Relativistic theory of magnetic X-ray scattering
We present a description of a first-principles formalism for the scattering of circularly polarised X-rays within the framework of relativistic density functional theory (DFT). The scattering amplitudes are ca...

Understanding the valency of rare earths from first-principles theory
The rare-earth metals have high magnetic moments and a diverse range of magnetic structures1. Their magnetic properties are determined by the occupancy of the strongly localized 4f electronic shells, while the ou...

Changes in the Glycosylation of Interferon-γ during Culture
We have shown in previous studies that recombinant human interferon-γ (IFN-γ) expressed in CHO cells displays macroheterogeneity caused by variable N-glycosylation (Curling et al., 1990). In this paper, FAB-Mass ...

Spin Polarised Relativistic Kkr
We review spin polarised multiple scattering theory and show how it can provide a description of magnetic anisotropic effects in metallic systems. An interpretation in terms of the leading relativistic correct...

Theory of Magnetic X-Ray Dichroism
In recent years the development of high intensity synchrotron radiation sources has enabled us to use X-ray spectroscopies as a probe of the electronic structure of materials on an extremely detailed level. In...

Relativistic Density-Functional Theory for Electrons in Solids
Practising solid state physicists are accustomed to using two dramatically different approaches to describing the electron ‘glue’ that holds the atomic nuclei together. The first pictures the solid as made up ...

Theory of Magnetocrystalline Anisotropy
One of the first things one learns in a school course in magnetism is that a magnet has a north and a south pole. This defines a direction in the magnet, the axis of magnetisation. If one cools a single crysta...

A fully relativistic description of the hyperfine interaction in magnetic systems
Based on the spin-polarized version of the multiple scattering theory, a relativistically correct formulation for the Green’s function describing the electronic structure of magnetic metallic systems has been ...

A relativistic theory of X-ray absorption by spin-polarized targets
We show that, as a consequence of relativistic quantum mechanics, photons with left handed and right handed circular polarizations are absorbed differently by spin-polarized targets. We illustrate this effect ...

The significance of preoperative radiological examinations in patients treated with Cloward's operation
During a fifteen-year period 1,106 patients with symptoms and signs of cervical disc disease underwent Cloward's operation. Plain x-rays were performed in 94%, but the severity and extension of degenerative ch...

Treatment of cervical disc disease using Cloward's technique
Among 1,106 patients with cervical disc disease in whom Cloward's operation had been performed over a fifteen-year period, 145 patients were reoperated upon with a new Cloward procedure. In the 1st year after ...

Models for Intermediate Valence Systems and Kondo Lattices — Applications to Cerium and Ytterbium Compounds
For sometime now there has been a group of us at Imperial College (increasing in number but now dispersing) concerned with the theoretical problems of intermediate valency and Kondo lattices. Some of our recen...

Treatment of cervical disc disease using Cloward's technique the prognostic value of clinical preoperative data in 1,106 patients
During a fifteen-year period 1,106 patients underwent Cloward's operation due to cervical disc disease. An analysis of the clinical features showed that the diseases had a very complex pattern of symptoms and ...

Treatment of cervical disc disease using Cloward's technique
During the period from April, 1965, to October, 1979, 1,106 patients with symptoms or signs of cervical disc disease were operated on using Cloward's technique. 94% of the patients alive filled in a questionna...
