- The results of the electronic structure calculations performed on SmN by using the LDA+U method with and without including the spin-orbit coupling are presented. Within the LDA+U approach, a N(2p) band polarization of about 0.3 mu(B) is induced by Sm(4f)-N(2p) hybridization, and a half-metallic ground state is obtained. By including spin-orbit coupling the magnetic structure was shown to be antiferromagnetic of type II, with Sm spin and orbital moments nearly cancelling. This results into a semiconducting ground state, which is in agreement with experimental results.

Cardiac remodelling - Part 2: Clinical, imaging and laboratory findings. A review from the Study Group on Biomarkers of the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology

Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In patients with heart failure, the beneficial effects of drug and device therapies counteract to some extent ongoing cardiac damage. According to the net balance between these two factors, cardiac geometry and function may improve (reverse remodelling, RR) and even completely normalize (remission), or vice versa progressively deteriorate (adverse remodelling, AR). RR or remission predict a better prognosis, while AR has been associated with worsening clinical status and outcomes. The remodelling process ultimately involves all cardiac chambers, but has been traditionally evaluated in terms of left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction. This is the second part of a review paper by the Study Group on Biomarkers of the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology dedicated to ventricular remodelling. This document examines the proposed criteria to diagnose RR and AR, their prevalence and prognostic value, and the variables predicting remodelling in patients managed according to current guidelines. Much attention will be devoted to RR in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction because most studies on cardiac remodelling focused on this setting.

Lattice dynamics of palladium in the presence of electronic correlations

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We compute the phonon dispersion, density of states, and the Gruneisen parameters of bulk palladium in the combined density functional theory (DFT) and dynamical mean-field theory. We find good agreement with experimental results for ground-state properties (equilibrium lattice parameter and bulk modulus) and the experimentally measured phonon spectra. We demonstrate that at temperatures T less than or similar to( )20 K the phonon frequency in the vicinity of the Kohn anomaly, omega(T1)(q(K)), strongly decreases. This is in contrast to DFT where this frequency remains essentially constant in the whole temperature range. Apparently, correlation effects reduce the restoring force of the ionic displacements at low temperatures, leading to a mode softening.
