TL;DR: In this paper, the Anderson model for the $4{f}^{1}$ configuration of cerium was performed, taking into account combined spin and orbit exchange scattering, and the resultant interaction Hamiltonian differs qualitatively from the conventional $s\ensuremath{-}f$ exchange interaction.
Abstract: Starting with the Anderson model for the $4{f}^{1}$ configuration of cerium, the transformation of Schrieffer and Wolff is performed, taking into account combined spin and orbit exchange scattering. The resultant interaction Hamiltonian differs qualitatively from the conventional $s\ensuremath{-}f$ exchange interaction. The Kondo effect, the spin-disorder resistivity, the Ruderman-Kittel interaction, and the depression of the super-conducting transition temperature with impurity concentration are worked out for alloys containing cerium impurities on the basis of this new interaction.

TL;DR: In this article, the optical properties of cerium-activated garnet crystals have been investigated, and the wavelength maxima of the fluorescence-spectrum profiles are found to be host-dependent.
Abstract: The optical properties of cerium-activated garnet crystals have been investigated. In the garnet crystals showing luminescence, a bright-yellow fluorescence has been observed. The fluorescence exhibits structure at low temperatures, and the wavelength maxima of the fluorescence-spectrum profiles are found to be host-dependent. Energy transfer has been observed from the cerium ion to the neodymium ion.

TL;DR: In this paper, the electrical resistivities as a function of temperature (−130° to 25°C) were determined on single crystals of cerium hydride ranging in composition from CeH1.9-CeH2.7.
Abstract: Electrical resistivities as a function of temperature (−130° to 25°C) were determined on single crystals of cerium hydride ranging in composition from CeH1.94–CeH2.85. Measurements were performed in an inert‐atmosphere dry box using the four‐point probe technique. Cerium hydride exhibited metallic behavior in the range CeH1.9–CeH2.7. However, at a composition of about CeH2.85, a positive temperature coefficient of conductivity indicative of semiconductivity was observed. It is proposed that the semiconductivity of cerium trihydride is due to hydrogen vacancies which act as electron donors in the CeH3 structure. The observed change in slope of the resistivity vs 1 / T curves yielding two apparent activation energies is caused by the presence of substitutional oxygen impurities which act as electron acceptors. On the basis of this model, the donor level is calculated to be 0.30 eV below the conduction band.

TL;DR: A new monoclinic phase of cerium orthovanadate, CeVO4(H), was found during the course of oxidation of pseudo-perovskite CeVO3 below 400°C.
Abstract: A new monoclinic phase of cerium orthovanadate, CeVO4(H), was found during the course of oxidation of pseudo-perovskite CeVO3 below 400°C. It has been confirmed to crystallize in the huttonite-type structure (C2h5−P21⁄n), that of LaVO4. The lattice parameters were determined to be:a0=6.98A, b0=7.22A, c0=6.76A, β=105°02′, V=328A3 and Z=4.This phase was metastable, and exothermally transformed into a known stable CeVO4 (tetragonal zircon-type, D4h19−I41⁄amd) above 400°C, releasing a small amount of oxygen. From magnetic, chemical and thermogravimetric analyses, the valences of cerium ion and vanadium ion in CeVO4-(H) seem to be tripositive and pentapositive respectively, but V4+ ion is mixed in zircon-type CeVO4; CeVO4(Z).

TL;DR: All the elements studied were partly volatilised, even at low ashing temperatures, for this reason wet ashing is recommended for the determination of radioactive contaminants in biological material.
Abstract: The mollusc Mytillus galloprovincialis Lam. was allowed to take up radioisotopes of cerium, cobalt, manganese, protactinium, ruthenium and zinc from sea water. The loss of radioactivity when the molluscan soft tissues were heated to between 110° and 800° C in air was investigated. All the elements studied were partly volatilised, even at low ashing temperatures. For this reason wet ashing is recommended for the determination of radioactive contaminants in biological material.

TL;DR: The angular correlation of positron-annihilation radiation from cerium hydride was measured for hydrogen concentrations in the range H/Ce 1.8-2.8.
Abstract: The angular correlation of positron‐annihilation radiation from cerium hydride was measured for hydrogen concentrations in the range H/Ce = 1.8–2.8. The angular correlations were found to be broader than that from cerium metal and to increase in width with increasing hydrogen concentration in a manner consistent with the screened protonic model of the electronic structure. The anionic model does not provide a satisfactory explanation of the measured angular correlations.
