A Decade of GRB Follow-Up by BOOTES in Spain (2003-2013)
(Hindawi, 2016)
This article covers ten years of GRB follow-ups by the Spanish BOOTES stations: 71 follow-ups providing 23 detections. Follow-ups by BOOTES-1B from 2005 to 2008 were given in a previous article and are here reviewed and ...
Influence of Upconversion Processes in the Optically-Induced Inhomogeneous Thermal Behavior of Erbium-Doped Lanthanum Oxysulfide Powders
(MDPI, 2016-05-11)
The efficient infrared-to-visible upconversion emission present in Er-doped lanthanum oxysulfide crystal powders is used as a fine thermal sensor to determine the influence of upconversion processes on the laser-induced ...
Random Laser Action in Nd:YAG Crystal Powder Jon
(MDPI, 2016-05-13)
This work explores the room temperature random stimulated emission at 1.064 mu m of a Nd:YAG crystal powder (Neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet) in a very simple pump configuration with no assistance from an internal ...
Sustainable Cultural Tourism in Urban Destinations: Does Space Matter?
(MDPI, 2016-07)
Policy makers and tourism developers must understand visitors' mobility behavior and how they consume space and tourism resources in order to set up sustainable cultural tourism destinations. With this in mind, it should ...
Observation of a charge delocalization from Se vacancies in Bi2Se3: A positron annihilation study of native defects
(APS, 2016-07-27)
[EN] By means of positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy, we have investigated the native defects present in Bi2Se3, which belongs to the family of topological insulators. We experimentally demonstrate that selenium ...
Low temperature magnetic properties of a Ni50Mn34In16 ball-milled metamagnetic shape memory alloy
(Elsevier, 2016-09-01)
[EN] The effect of the atomic disorder induced by ball-milling on the structure and the magnetic properties has been analyzed in a Ni50Mn34In16 metamagnetic shape memory alloy. The as-milled samples displayed an amorphous ...
Mechanically induced disorder and crystallization process in Ni-Mn-In ball-milled alloys
(Elsevier, 2016-12-25)
[EN] High mechanical deformation has been induced in a Ni-Mn-In metamagnetic shape memory alloy by means of ball milling. The evolution of both the martensitic transformation and the magnetic properties associated to the ...
An enduring rapidly moving storm as a guide to Saturn’s Equatorial jet’s complex structure
(Nature Publishing, 2016-11-08)
Saturn has an intense and broad eastward equatorial jet with a complex three-dimensional structure mixed with time variability. The equatorial region experiences strong seasonal insolation variations enhanced by ring ...
Growth of Co Nanomagnet Arrays with Enhanced Magnetic Anisotropy
(Wiley Blackwell, 2016-09)
A trigon structure formed by submonolayer gadolinium deposition onto Au(111) is revealed as a robust growth template for Co nanodot arrays. Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and X-Ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism measurements ...
Enhanced Configurational Entropy in High-Density Nanoconfined Bilayer Ice
(APS, 2016-02-25)
[EN] A novel kind of crystal order in high-density nanoconfined bilayer ice is proposed from molecular dynamics and density-functional theory simulations. A first-order transition is observed between a low-temperature ...
