TL;DR: In this article, the anisotropic properties of YBa2Cu4O8 have been investigated using the Montgomery formalism for anisotropies using single crystal platelets by optical and electron transport measurements.

TL;DR: The temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibility of the Bi2−ySryIr2O7 system was studied from 2 to 300 K in this paper, where the solid solution (0 ≤ y ≤ 0.9 ) does not show any magnetic transition; however, a noticeable deviation from the Curie-Weiss law occurs and the magnetic behavior of this system can be attributed to short-range magnetic order that is also present in several geometrically frustrated systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, high-pressure electrical resistivity measurements and electronic structure analysis on the intermetallic Mo fixme BC system are presented, and the changes in the electronic structure of this compound as a function of pressure are investigated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface states of different diamond surfaces are studied using total and partial density of states (DOS) curves, and are related qualitatively to the reactivity of these surfaces, which are important in the process of diamond growth.

TL;DR: In this paper, the soft x-ray absorption spectrum (XAS) at the metal L2,3 edge indicate the importance of atomic multiplet effects for the electronic structure of NiF2, which is the most ionic of the nickel compounds.
