A Single-Crystal Neutron Diffraction Study on Magnetic Structure of the Quasi-One-Dimensional Antiferromagnet SrCo 2 V 2 O 8

“…The temperature of the sample was regulated by the ILL Orange Cryostat in a temperature range from 1.5 K to 300 K. SrCo 2 V 2 O 8 crystallizes in the tetragonal SrNi 2 (AsO 4 ) 2 structure (space group No. 110, 𝐼4 1 𝑐𝑑), [31] with lattice parameters 𝑎 = 12.267(1) Å and 𝑐 = 8.424(1) Å at room temperature. In a structural unit cell, the magnetic ions Co 2+ in the edgeshared CoO 6 octahedra form screw chains along the 𝑐 axis (Fig.…”

Fictions of Return in Filipino America

“…Filtered through loaded metaphors of the tropics via film, war, tourism, as well as my mother's stories of home and WWII -the constructed set purchased from eBay, represents both Los Angeles and the Philippines, through constructed notions of home and paradise." 28 Rapture can be read as a display of the desire for an imagined rootedness, as the background behind Osterloh's figure evokes images of Acapulco or Manila Bay.
