We report on the synthesis of new nitride-based compound by using annealing of AlN heteroepitaxial layers under a Si-atmosphere at temperatures between 1350$^circ$C and 1550$^circ$C. The structure and stoichiometry of this compound are investigated by high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy (HRSTEM), energy dispersive X-Ray (EDX) spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The identified structure is a derivative of the parent wurtzite AlN crystal where anion sublattice is fully occupied by N atoms and the cation sublattice is the stacking of 2 different planes along <0001>. The first one exhibits a $times$3 periodicity along <10-10> with 1/3 of the sites being vacant. The rest of the sites in the cation sublattice are occupied by equal number of Si and Al atoms. Assuming a semiconducting alloy, which is expected to have a wide band gap, a range of stoichiometries is proposed, Al$_{5+alpha}$Si$_{5+delta}$N$_{12}$, with $alpha$ being between 0 and 1/3 and $delta$ between 0 and 1/4.

The observation of $^{26}$Al gives us the proof of active nucleosynthesis in the Milky Way. However the identification of the main producers of $^{26}$Al is still a matter of debate. Many sites have been proposed, but our poor knowledge of the nuclea r processes involved introduces high uncertainties. In particular, the limited accuracy on the $^{25}$Mg($alpha$,n)$^{28}$Si reaction cross section has been identified as the main source of nuclear uncertainty in the production of $^{26}$Al in C/Ne explosive burning in massive stars, which has been suggested to be the main source of $^{26}$Al in the Galaxy. We studied this reaction through neutron spectroscopy at the CN Van de Graaff accelerator of the Legnaro National Laboratories. Thanks to this technique we are able to discriminate the ($alpha$,n) events from possible contamination arising from parasitic reactions. In particular, we measured the neutron angular distributions at 5 different beam energies (between 3 and 5 MeV) in the ang{17.5}-ang{106} laboratory system angular range. The presented results disagree with the assumptions introduced in the analysis of a previous experiment.
The magnetic state of heavy metal Pt thin films in proximity to the ferrimagnetic insulator Y$_{3}$Fe$_{5}$O$_{12}$ has been investigated systematically by means of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism and x-ray resonant magnetic reflectivity measuremen ts combined with angle-dependent magnetotransport studies. To reveal intermixing effects as the possible cause for induced magnetic moments in Pt, we compare thin film heterostructures with different order of the layer stacking and different interface properties. For standard Pt layers on Y$_{3}$Fe$_{5}$O$_{12}$ thin films, we do not detect any static magnetic polarization in Pt. These samples show an angle-dependent magnetoresistance behavior, which is consistent with the established spin Hall magnetoresistance. In contrast, for the inverted layer sequence, Y$_{3}$Fe$_{5}$O$_{12}$ thin films grown on Pt layers, Pt displays a finite induced magnetic moment comparable to that of all-metallic Pt/Fe bilayers. This magnetic moment is found to originate from finite intermixing at the Y$_{3}$Fe$_{5}$O$_{12}$/Pt interface. As a consequence, we found a complex angle-dependent magnetoresistance indicating a superposition of the spin Hall and the anisotropic magnetoresistance in these type of samples. Both effects can be disentangled from each other due to their different angle dependence and their characteristic temperature evolution.

We report new results for the elastic constants studied in Faraday and Cotton-Mouton geometry in Tb$_3$Ga$_5$O$_{12}$ (TGG), a frustrated magnetic substance with strong spin-phonon interaction and remarkable crystal-electric-field (CEF) effects. We a nalyze the data in the framework of CEF theory taking into account the individual surroundings of the six inequivalent Tb$^{3+}$-ion positions. This theory describes both, elastic constants in the magnetic field and as a function of temperature. Moreover we present sound-attenuation data for the acoustic Cotton-Mouton effect in TGG.
The structure of the $(sqrt{5}timessqrt{5})R26.6^circ$ reconstruction of LaAlO$_3$ (001) has been determined using transmission electron diffraction combined with direct methods. The structure is relatively simple, consisting of a lanthanum oxide ter mination with one lanthanum cation vacancy per surface unit cell. The electronic structure is unusual since a fractional number of holes or atomic occupancies per surface unit cell are required to achieve charge neutrality. Density functional calculations indicate that the charge compensation mechanism occurs by means of highly delocalized holes. The surface contains no oxygen vacancies and with a better than 99% confidence level, the holes are not filled with hydrogen. The reconstruction can be understood in terms of expulsion of the more electropositive cation from the surface followed by an increased covalency between the remaining surface lanthanum atoms and adjacent oxygen atoms.
In this paper, we solve the equation of the title under the assumption that $gcd(x,d)=1$ and $ngeq 2$. This generalizes earlier work of the first author, Patel and Siksek [BPS16]. Our main tools include Frey-Hellegouarch curves and associated modular forms, and an assortment of Chabauty-type techniques for determining rational points on curves of small positive genus.
