A primordial atmospheric origin of hydrospheric deuterium enrichment on Mars

Posted by dbos Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Laura Schaefer | First 5 Authors: Kaveh Pahlevan, Laura Schaefer, Linda T. Elkins-Tanton, Steven J. Desch, Peter R. Buseck | Summary: The deuterium-to-hydrogen (D/H or 2H/1H) ratio of Martian atmospheric water (~6x standard mean ocean water, SMOW) is higher than that of known sources, requiring planetary enrichment. A recent measurement by NASA’s Mars […]

Dynamics of photo-induced ferromagnetism in oxides with orbital degeneracy

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Ankit Disa | Summary:By using intense coherent electromagnetic radiation, it may be possible to manipulate the properties of quantum materials very quickly, or even induce new and potentially useful phases that are absent in equilibrium. For instance, ultrafast control of magnetic dynamics is crucial for a number of proposed spintronic devices and can […]
