RESUMO
We present a neutron scattering investigation of Ce1-xYxAl3 as a function of chemical pressure, which induces a transition from heavy-fermion behavior in CeAl3 (T{K}=5 K) to a mixed-valence state at x=0.5 (T{K}=150 K). The crossover can be modeled accurately on an absolute intensity scale by an increase in the k-f hybridization, V{kf}, within the Anderson impurity model. Surprisingly, the principal effect of the increasing V{kf} is not to broaden the low-energy components of the dynamic magnetic susceptibility but to transfer spectral weight to high energy.
RESUMO
The spatial structure and dynamics of hen egg white lysozyme have been investigated by small-angle and inelastic neutron scattering. Analysis of the results was carried using the fractal approach, which allowed determination of the fractal and fracton dimensions of lysozyme, i.e., consideration of the protein structure and dynamics by using a unified approach. Small-angle neutron scattering studies of thermal denaturation of lysozyme have revealed changes in the fractal dimension in the vicinity of the thermal denaturation temperature that reflect changes in the spatial organization of protein.
