TL;DR: A broad overview of magnetic hyperthermia addressing new perspectives and the progress on relevant features such as the ad hoc preparation of magnetic nanoparticles, physical modeling of magnetic heating, methods to determine the heat dissipation power of magnetic colloids including the development of experimental apparatus and the influence of biological matrices on the heating efficiency is presented in this article.

TL;DR: The observed permanent magnetism at room temperature in Ag and Cu dodecanethiol-capped nanoparticles proves that the physical mechanisms associated to this magnetization process can be extended to more elements, opening the way to new and still not-discovered applications and to new possibilities to research basic questions of magnetism.

TL;DR: Theoretical positron lifetime values have been calculated systematically for most of the elements of the periodic table and confirm that monovacancy lifetimes follow the same behaviour.

TL;DR: Radiation damage caused by the implantation of 200 keV Ge{sup +} ions into 6H-SiC has been studied by monoenergetic positron Doppler broadening and lifetime techniques and suggests that the main defect produced is the divacancy, but that Si monovacancies are also created.
