TL;DR: A methodology in which the use of additional characterization techniques, like single crystal magnetic measurements or luminescence experiments, complemented by relativistic ab initio calculations and a suitable choice of spin Hamiltonian models can be of great help to overcome difficulties in the rational design of lanthanide based Single Molecule Magnets with enhanced physical properties is exposed.
Abstract: Due to their usual large magnetic moments and large magnetic anisotropy lanthanide ions are investigated for the search of Single Molecule Magnets with high blocking temperature. However, the low symmetry crystal environment, the complexity of the electronic states or the non-collinearity of the magnetic anisotropy easy-axes in polynuclear systems make the rationalization of the magnetic behaviour of lanthanide based molecular systems difficult. In this perspective article we expose a methodology in which the use of additional characterization techniques, like single crystal magnetic measurements or luminescence experiments, complemented by relativistic ab initio calculations and a suitable choice of spin Hamiltonian models, can be of great help in order to overcome such difficulties, representing an essential step for the rational design of lanthanide based Single Molecule Magnets with enhanced physical properties.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the progress made in the synthesis, characterization and theoretical understanding of single-chain magnet (SCM) and highlight differences and similarities with single-molecule magnet (SMM).
Abstract: Single chain magnets (SCMs) are an interesting class of molecular polymeric materials displaying slow relaxation of the magnetization. They provide, at low temperatures, a magnetic hysteretic behaviour for a single polymeric chain. Although their behaviour evokes better-known magnetic nanoparticles and single-molecule magnets (SMMs), the similarity is mainly apparent. The fundamental differences in the physical origin of the magnetic behaviour offer perspectives that are still largely unexplored. Here we review the progress made in the synthesis, characterization and theoretical understanding of SCMs, highlighting differences and similarities with SMMs. For each of the points we then present a perspective of the advantages offered by this class of materials and we point out the main aspects that remain to be developed in the field.

TL;DR: The present data are consistent with the pure scalar hypothesis, while disfavoring the pure pseudoscalar hypothesis.
Abstract: A study is presented of the mass and spin-parity of the new boson recently observed at the LHC at a mass near 125 GeV. An integrated luminosity of 17.3 fb^(-1), collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, is used. The measured mass in the ZZ channel, where both Z bosons decay to e or μ pairs, is 126.2±0.6(stat)±0.2(syst) GeV. The angular distributions of the lepton pairs in this channel are sensitive to the spin-parity of the boson. Under the assumption of spin 0, the present data are consistent with the pure scalar hypothesis, while disfavoring the pure pseudoscalar hypothesis.

TL;DR: In this paper, high-frequency EPR spectroscopy was used to monitor the relaxation time of the magnetization, which was found to follow a thermally activated behavior, as in a superparamagnet, with τ 0 = 1.9 × 10−7 s and an energy barrier of 22.2 K. The authors concluded that the origin of the anisotropy in nanosize molecular clusters is associated with the single ion contributions and not with the shape of the clusters.
Abstract: Using high-frequency EPR spectroscopy we have found that a cluster comprising eight iron(III) ions, Fe8, which is essentially flat, has a ground S = 10 state and an Ising-type anisotropy. For the first time both ac susceptibility and Mossbauer spectroscopy could be used in order to monitor the relaxation time of the magnetization, which was found to follow a thermally activated behavior, as in a superparamagnet, with τ0 = 1.9 × 10−7 s and an energy barrier of 22.2 K. The set of data allowed us to conclude that the origin of the anisotropy in nanosize molecular clusters is associated with the single ion contributions and not with the shape of the clusters.
