We show that this method leads us to the explanation of the basic features of the phase diagram of plutonium. After the crystal Green's function is obtained, an updated charge density is computed.

During its transition into plutonium dioxide, the Pu (VI) passed through a transient phase that’s solid and stable. It appeared to be pentavalent plutonium, or Pu (V), but this form is not ...

A team sees stripes in samples of twisted double bilayer graphene, indicating the presence of a nematic phase characterized by broken rotational symmetry. Although twisted sheets of double bilayer ...

Despite their potential, however, the magnetic phase diagram of these materials remains largely unexplored. To uncover more, a team of researchers, led by Professor Ryuji Tamura from the ...

A breakthrough came later in 1944, when one Manhattan Project scientist suggested that combining plutonium with another element to make an alloy might stabilize it in a phase that was workable.
