Abstract:
The negative Hall constant R(H) measured all over the phase diagram of Ba(Fe(1-x) Co(x))(2)As(2) allows us to show that electron carriers always dominate the transport properties. The evolution of R(H) with x at low doping (x<2%) indicates that important band structure changes happen for x<2% prior to the emergence of superconductivity. For higher x, a change with T of the electron concentration is required to explain the low T variations of R(H), while the electron scattering rate displays the T(2) law expected for a Fermi liquid. The T=0 residual scattering is affected by Co disorder in the magnetic phase, but is rather dominated by incipient disorder in the paramagnetic state.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.

Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
