The dynamical correlated-effective-field approximation (DCEFA) developed by Suzuki is extended to the pair-approximation, in which the spin-pair is solved exactly and the interaction between the pairs is treated by the DCEFA. The approximation is applied to calculate magnetic excitation and uniform static susceptibility of S=1/2 exchange-alternating chains.The obtained results agree reasonably well with those obtained by the exact diagonalization method for finite spins. The approximation is applied also to real pseudo-one-dimensional antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic alternating systems such as Cu(TIM)CuCl
4, (4-BzpipdH)CuCl
3 and MeNN, and the exchange couplings including interchain coupling in these systems are evaluated.

We study properties of UNi
4B using the Heisenberg model. Considering the spin operators as classical vectors, we show that the classical ground state of this model is the vortexlike U spin arrangement in the basal plain. By means of the spin-wave method we calculate the temperature dependence of the specific heat at low temperatures, and estimate the coupling constants. From the obtained coupling constants we get the transition temperature T
N=8.7 K.

Spin dynamics as well as static properties of the one-dimensionalJ-J' model (S=1/2, J>0 and 0≤ α=J'/J≤ 0.5) arestudied by the exact diagonalization and the recursion methodof finite systems up to 26 sites.Especially, the dynamical structure factor S(q, ω) isinvestigated carefully for various values of α.As α increases beyond the gapless-gapful critical valueα
c=0.2411, there appear features definitely differentfrom the Heisenberg model but the same with the Majumdar-Ghosh model.Some of these features depend only on the value of α andnot on δ: a parameter introduced for the coupling alternation.By comparing these results with a recent inelastic neutron scatteringspectrum of an inorganic spin-Peierls compound CuGeO
3[M. Arai et al.: Phys. Rev. Lett. 77 (1996) 3649], it is found thatthe frustration by J' in CuGeO
3 is unexpectedly strong(α=0.4--0.45), and at least α must be larger thanα
c to some extent.The value of J is evaluated at -- 180 K consistent with other estimations.The coupling alternation is extremely small.This large frustration is a primary origin of the various anomalousproperties CuGeO
3 possesses.For comparison we refer also to α'-NaV
2O

The magnetization processes of the spin-glass Fe
0.50Mn
0.50TiO
3 and the reentrant spin-glass Fe
0.65Mn
0.35TiO
3 have been measured in the magnetic field H swept with various sweep-rates between 0.050, T/s and 0.750, T/s at 4.2, K and -- 1.4, K. When H is swept up or down fast beyond a critical value of the sweep-rate, the anomalous jump-up and jump-down of the magnetization occurs towards the values of the field-cooled-magnetization. The jump-up or jump-down field of the magnetization changes depending on the sweep-rate and the temperature. It is demonstrated that the hysteresis related to the jump of the magnetization becomes small gradually with increasing the sweep-rate, which is opposite to the normal behavior that the response of spin systems is delayed for a fast sweep of H. We consider that these phenomena are closely related to the properties of the spin-glass state.

The ground state properties and phase diagram of bilayer Heisenberg model on the square lattice are studied in a wide range of parameter space of intralayer exchange couplings, assuming an antiferromagnetic coupling between constituent layers. In the classical limit, the model exhibits three phases: two of these are ordered phases specified by the ordering wave vectors (π, π;π) and (0, 0;π), where the third component of each indecates the antiferromagnetic orientation between layers, and another one is “canted” phase, stabilized by competing interactions. The effects of quantum fluctuations in the model with S=1/2 have been explored in terms of dimer mean-field theory, exact diagonalization of 2√2×2√2×2 clusters, and higher-order perturbation expansions about the interlayer dimer limit.

0.14 from 4.2 to 300, K. The line width of
1H NMR increases abruptly below 20, K. The enhancements of T
2-1 and T
1-1 of
63Cu(1) NQR occur around 20 and 40, K, respectively. The relaxation mechanism of T
1 of NQR changes at T
rm=80, K and the time dependence of its nuclear magnetization recovery shows a nonexponential type for T
rm and an exponential one for T>Trm. The predominant source for T1 below Trm is found to be the fluctuating magnetic fields due to the staggered Cu2+ moments induced by the hole doping effect. Above Trm, T1-1 of NQR increases gradually with temperature but it is almost temperature independent above 150, K, what can not be explained by the effect of the ordered AF Cu2+ moments in the Cu(2)O2 plane and also by the Raman process of the lattice vibrations.

4O
9 and CaV
3O
7.The linewidths of their ESR spectra can be described by the form of ( A cos
2 θ + B ), where θ is the angle between the directions of the c-axis and the external magnetic field and A and B are material dependent positive constants.The results seem to be understood by introducing the broadening due to the Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction with exchange narrowing.The resonance field has been found to depend not only on θ but also on the angle between the directions of the c-axis and the microwave field.This behavior seems to be explained by considering the effect of the non-diagonal dynamical susceptibility expected for systems with low symmetry.

A series of polystyrene/glass bead and poly (styrene-co-methacrylic acid)/glass bead composites with volumic fractions in the order of 21\studied by means of dielectric spectrometry. Experimental isochronal data on the pure matrixes show the α relaxation, associated to the glass transition. In the case of the composites, a more intense relaxation appears at a higher temperature compared with that of the α relaxation. This relaxation is attributed to the Maxwell-Wagner-Sillars (MWS) effect. Experimental results are in agreement with the van Beek theory in the case of untreated spherical inclusions. This agreement is more remarkable in the case of coupling agent-treated glass beads.

This paper performs the first investigation of high harmonics in prototype undulation. It also deals with U-ferroelectricity and U-ferroelasticity. [U- (or H-) ferroelectricity is ferroelectricity that should (or should not) vanish if the prototypic phase is brought from undulated to homogeneous.] For simplicity, only the second harmonic is taken into account, and no higher ones. Two cases are studied. They are the same in that the point group of the prototypic phase when homogeneous is mmm, the number of declension parameters is one and the expression of undulation of this parameter is δ =U
1 cos (ĥx +\hat{θ}
1)+U
2 cos (2ĥx+\hat{θ}
2). The two cases are different with regard to order-parameter symmetry. It is found that, if and only if U
1≠ 0, U
2≠ 0 and sin (\hat{θ}
2-2\hat{θ}
1)≠ 0, U-ferroelasticity occurs in one of the two cases, and U-ferroelectricity occurs (and is fast coupled with H-ferroelasticity) in the other case.

The optical conductivity is studied numerically for the ferromagnetic metallic state close to the charge ordering observed in perovskite manganites. We focus on roles of the charge fluctuation on the incoherent component in the optical spectra, and consider the Coulomb interaction in the one- and two-dimensional spinless fermion models. The numerical results show that the incoherent part is not noticeable, and near the quarter-filling, most of the spectral weights are transferred to the Drude component. The discrepancy between our calculations and the experiments suggests that the orbital degrees of freedom play important roles.
