Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths: Including Actinides, Volume 61 presents the latest release in this continuous series that covers all aspects of rare earth science, including chemistry, life sciences, materials science and physics. Presents up-to-date overviews and new developments in the field of rare earths, covering both their physics and chemistry Contains individual chapters that are comprehensive and broad, along with critical reviews Provides contributions from highly experienced, invited experts

Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths is a continuing series of books covering all aspects of rare earth science, including chemistry, life sciences, materials science, and physics. The handbook emphasizes rare earth elements [Sc, Y and the lanthanides (La through Lu)] but, when relevant, information also is included about the closely related actinide elements. The individual chapters are comprehensive, broad, up-to-date critical reviews written by highly experienced invited experts. The series, which was started in 1978 by Professor Karl A. Gschneidner, Jr., combines and integrates both the fundamentals and applications of these elements and now publishes two volumes a year.

Covers topics pertaining to solid state physics and materials science, and describes organic (and inorganic) reactions mediated by tetravalent cerium-based oxidants and by divalent samarium-based reductants. This book also focuses on the synthesis and use of divalent samarium-based reductants in organic and inorganic reactions.

Focuses on selected chemical aspects of rare-earth materials. This title covers topics that range from a basic treatment of crystalline electric-field effects and chemical interactions in organic solvents, to separation processes, electrochemical behaviors which impact corrosion, oxidation resistance, chemical energy storage and sensor technology.

In the filling of the 4f electronic orbitals, the lanthanides defy the elementary aufbau principle that underlies the periodic sequence of the elements. This volume includes chapters that help to unravel some of these, and introduces the basic physics of the orbital collapse leading to the failure.

Deals with intermetallic compounds. This book presents an overview of ternary systems containing rare earths, transition metals and indium. It also sorts out relationships between superconductivity and magnetism.

Covers various topics with 3 chapters dealing with a range of lanthanide magnetic materials, and three chapters concerning equiatomic ternary ytterbium intermetallic compounds, rare-earth polysulfides, and lanthanide organic complexes. Two chapters of this book include information on the actinides and the comparative lanthanide/actinide behaviors.

Deals with the chemistry, materials science, physics and technology of the rare earth elements. This work features chapters that offer a comprehensive review of a particular segment of the field.
