Article: Study results from Jiwaji University in the area of condensed matter published.

"The magnetic, structural, elastic and electronic properties of Sm-chalcogenides in the stable Fm (3) over barm and high pressure Pm (3) over barm phase have been analyzed using an ab initio pseudo-potential method with a spin-polarized GGA based on exchange-correlation energy optimization, as implemented in SIESTA code. The magnetic phase stability has been determined from the total energy calculations in non-magnetic and magnetic phases, which clearly indicate that at ambient and high pressures, these compounds are ferromagnetically stable," scientists in Gwalior, India report.

"Also, the Sm ion is described in both five and six localized f electrons. Under ...
