    Unusual electronic and vibrational properties in the colossal thermopower material FeSb2

    The iron antimonide FeSb2 possesses an extraordinarily high thermoelectric power factor at low temperature, making it a leading candidate for cryogenic thermoelectric cooling devices. However, the origin of this ...

    Site-selective electronic correlation in α-plutonium metal

    An understanding of the phase diagram of elemental plutonium (Pu) must include both, the effects of the strong directional bonding and the high density of states of the Pu 5f electrons, as well as how that bondin...

    Fluctuating valence in a correlated solid and the anomalous properties of δ-plutonium

    The nuclear properties of the late actinides such as plutonium and curium — familiar as substrates and by-products in nuclear reactors — are well understood. The same cannot be said of their solid-state proper...

    Correlated electrons in δ-plutonium within a dynamical mean-field picture

    Given the practical importance of metallic plutonium, there is considerable interest1,2,3 in understanding its fundamental properties. Plutonium undergoes a 25 per cent increase in volume4 when transformed from i...
