After the detection of 60 Fe from a nearby supernova in a terrestrial sample the search for SN
produced radionuclides has been extended to the r-process radionuclide 244 Pu. For this …

Transient control over the atomic potential-energy landscapes of solids could lead to new
states of matter and to quantum control of nuclear motion on the timescale of lattice vibrations. …

Single spin carrying defects are key elements in quantum information and nanosensing
technology with the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond being the outstanding example. In …

We have extended an approximate density-functional based method to the calculation of spin
densities and subsequently to electron paramagnetic hyperfine interactions. The isotropic …
