Thermodynamic Properties of Terbium Tellurides

Elastic properties of terbium.

Characterization of the Photophysical, Thermodynamic, and Structural Properties of the Terbium(III)-DREAM Complex.

DREAM (also known as K(+) channel interacting protein 3 and calsenilin) is a calcium binding protein and an active modulator of KV4 channels in neuronal cells as well as a novel Ca(2+)-regulated transcriptional modulator. DREAM has also been associated with the regulation of Alzheimer's disease through the prevention of presenilin-2 fragmentation. Many interactions of DREAM with its binding par...

Thermoelectric Properties of Gadolinium Copper Tellurides

Since thermoelectrics are an important way to produce electricity from waste heat, the thermoelectric properties of gadolinium copper telluride, GdCuTe2, together with the doped compounds gadolinium samarium copper telluride, Gd1-xSmxCuTe2, and gadolinium dysprosium copper telluride, Gd1-xDyxCuTe2, with x = 0.02 and x = 0.05 were investigated. Upon doping, a decrease in thermal conductivity and...

Thermodynamic Properties for Argon

An analytical equation of state is applied to calculate the thermodynamic properties for argon. Theequation of state is that of Song and Mason. It is based on a statistical-mechanical perturbation theory ofhard convex bodies and can be written as fifth-order polynomial in the density. There exist three temperaturedependentparameters: the second virial coefficient, an effective molecular volume,...
