This work discusses results of experimental investigations of the specific heat, $C$, of apple in a wide interval of moisture contents ($W=0-0.9$) and temperatures ($T = 283-363$ K). The obtained data reveal the important role of the bound water in determination of $C(W,T)$ behaviour. The additive model for description of $C(W)$ dependence in the moisture range of $0.1<W<1.0$ was applied, where the apple was considered as a mixture of water and hydrated apple material (water plasticised apple) with specific heat $C_h$. The difference between $C_h$ and specific heat of dry apple, $Delta Cb=C_h-C_d$, was proposed as a measure of the excess contribution of bound water to the specific heat. The estimated amounts of bound water $W_b$ were comparable with the monolayer moisture content in apple. The analytical equation was proposed for approximation of $C(W,T)$ dependencies in the studied intervals of moisture content and temperature.

A commercially available calorimeter has been used to investigate the specific heat of a high-quality kn single crystal. The addenda heat capacity of the calorimeter is determined in the temperature range $0.02 , mathrm{K} leq T leq 0.54 , mathrm{K}$ . The data of the kn crystal imply the presence of a large $T^2$ contribution to the specific heat which gives evidence of $d$-wave order parameter symmetry in the superconducting state. To improve the measurements, a novel design for a calorimeter with a paramagnetic temperature sensor is presented. It promises a temperature resolution of $Delta T approx 0.1 , mathrm{mu K}$ and an addenda heat capacity less than $200 , mathrm{pJ/K}$ at $ T < 100 , mathrm{mK}$.
The magnetization at low temperatures for Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3 and Nd0.5Ca0.5MnO3 samples showed a rapid increase with decreasing temperatures, contrary to a La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 sample. Specific heat measurement at low temperatures showed a Schottky-like anomal y for the first two samples. However, there is not a straight forward correlation between the intrinsic magnetic moment of the Nd3+ ions and the Schottky-like anomaly.
The high temperature expansion (HTE) of the specific heat of a spin system fails at low temperatures, even if it is combined with a Pade approximation. On the other hand we often have information about the low temperature asymptotics (LTA) of the sys tem. Interpolation methods combine both kind of information, HTE and LTA, in order to obtain an approximation of the specific heat that holds for the whole temperature range. Here we revisit the entropy method that has been previously published and propose two variants that better cope with problems of the entropy method for gapped systems. We compare all three methods applied to the antiferromagnetic Haldane spin-one chain and especially apply the second variant, called Log Z method, to the cuboctahedron for different spin quantum numbers. In particular, we demonstrate that the interpolation method is able to detect an extra low-temperature maximum in the specific heat that may appear if a separation of two energy scales is present in the considered system. Finally we illustrate how interpolation also works for classical spin systems.
We studied the magnetization as a function of temperature and magnetic field in the compounds Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3, Nd0.5Ca0.5MnO3, Sm0.5Ca0.5MnO3, Dy0.5Ca0.5MnO3 and Ho0.5Ca0.5MnO3. Ferromagnetic, antiferromagnetic and charge ordering transition in our sa mples agreed with previous reports. The intrinsic magnetic moments of Nd3+, Sm3+, Dy3+ and Ho3+ ions experienced a short range order at low temperatures. We also did specific heat measurements with applied magnetic fields between 0 and 9 T and temperatures between 2 and 30 K in all five samples. Below 10 K the specific heat measurements evidenced a Schottky-like anomaly for all samples. However, we could not successfully fit the curves to either a two level nor a distribution of two-level Schottky anomaly.
In eukaryotic cells, KDEL receptors (KDELRs) facilitate the retrieval of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) luminal proteins from the Golgi compartment back to the ER. Apart from the well-documented retention function, recent findings reveal that the cellula r KDELRs have more complex roles, e.g. in cell signalling, protein secretion, cell adhesion and tumorigenesis. Furthermore, several studies suggest that a sub-population of KDELRs is located at the cell surface, where they could form and internalize KDELR/cargo clusters after K/HDEL-ligand binding. However, so far it has been unclear whether there are cell-type- or species-specific differences in KDELR clustering. By comparing ligand-induced KDELR clustering in different mouse and human cell lines via live cell imaging, we show that macrophage cell lines from both species do not develop any clusters. Using RT-qPCR experiments and numerical analysis, we address the role of KDELR expression as well as endocytosis and exocytosis rates on the receptor clustering at the plasma membrane and discuss how the efficiency of directed transport to preferred docking sites on the membrane influences the exponent of the power-law distribution of the cluster size.
