Journal ArticleDOI

The generalized simulated annealing algorithm in the low energy electron diffraction search problem.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results concerning the application of the generalized simulated annealing (GSA) algorithm to the LEED search problem and investigate the influence of the visiting distribution function (defined by the so-called q(V) parameter) in the effectiveness of the method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bulk band structure of Bi 2 Te 3

TL;DR: In this paper, the bulk band structure of a family of topological insulators was determined by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and compared to first-principles calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyurethane Foams for Thermal Insulation Uses Produced from Castor Oil and Crude Glycerol Biopolyols

TL;DR: Green foams synthesized using a renewable polyol from the simple physical mixture of castor oil and crude glycerol presented properties that indicate a great potential to be used as thermal insulation: density, thermal conductivity, compressive strength, and Young’s modulus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advances on surface structural determination by LEED.

TL;DR: In this review, recent developments related to the theory that gives support to LEED structural determination are discussed under a critical analysis of the main theoretical approximation-the muffin-tin calculation.
