Phase diagram of the J-Jd Heisenberg model on the maple leaf lattice: Neural networks and density matrix renormalization group

Ronny Thomale, Pratyay Ghosh

We microscopically analyze the nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model on the maple leaf lattice through neural quantum state (NQS) and infinite density matrix renormalization group (iDMRG) methods. Embarking to parameter regimes beyond the exact dimer singlet g ...

Organic matters, but inorganic matters too: column examination of elevated mercury sorption on low organic matter aquifer material using concentrations and stable isotope ratios

Lorenz Schwab

Sorption of mercury (Hg) in soils is suggested to be predominantly associated with organic matter (OM). However, there is a growing collection of research that suggests that clay minerals and oxides are also important solid phases for the sorption of solu ...
