We report the results of magnetoresistance and magnetization measurements on single crystal ${\mathrm{EuB}}_{6}$ for temperatures above below ferromagnetic ordering ${T}_{C}^{+}=15.3 \mathrm{K}$ ${T}_{C}^{\ensuremath{-}}=12.5 \mathrm{K},$ in magnetic fields as large 30 T. Shubnikov--de Haas de Haas--van Alphen oscillations were observed with four fundamental frequencies. By comparison to band-structure calculations, we ascribe orbits small pockets electrons holes, centered at X points. The...

The synthesis and single-crystal structure of a new one-to-one charge-transfer salt, derived from decamethylferrocene 2,3-dicyano-1,4-naphthoquinone, are described. [Fe(Cp*)2][DCNQ] crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca, with = 17.3149(5) A, b 14.6862(4) c 21.0507(6) Z 8. Magnetization vs temperature data obtained 100 G suggest that compound exhibits dominant one-dimensional ferromagnetic coupling it subsequently undergoes an antiferromagnetic phase transition below TN...

This report details the work (April-July 2015) of Unlocking Thesis Data, where project carried out a survey EThOS institutions, interviewed staff at six universities for more in-depth case studies, and synthesised findings. Overall, there is much appetite applying DOIs to theses their data (which includes datasets, software components other non-textual supplementary files) ORCiDs research students. Glasgow, Southampton East London each minted DOI an existing thesis, demonstrating viability...

As part of the Unlocking Thesis Data project, an online survey aimed to understand current situation for print and electronic thesis in UK universities as it relates identifiers, authors, uptake DOI identifiers HE institutions other research outputs, management supplementary data files raw produced course a PhD. This report presents analysis from survey, together with indicators further action project.

Case study of thesis processes at the University East London designed to inform subsequent phases Unlocking Thesis Data project. Includes recommendations for UEL assign ORCID and DOI identifiers appropriate points in research student journey.

Case study of thesis processes at the University Bristol designed to inform subsequent phases Unlocking Thesis Data project. Includes recommendations for assign ORCID and DOI identifiers appropriate points in research student journey.

Data from online survey carried out as a baseline for the Unlocking Thesis project, to determine current practices around handling theses in British universities. The data covers questions on technology platforms, who is responsible depositing and publishing electronic theses, use of or plans persistent identifiers (ORCID DOI) relating any underlying objects.

By their very nature PhD theses break new ground and advance research. They are often the first scholarly output produced by early researchers, it makes sense to embrace initiatives like identifiers right at beginning of research process. Applying Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) all encouraging doctoral students hold an ORCID iD will: - Provide easily citeable data - Grow usage, support metrics & altmetrics - Embed good data management practice on - Help track career paths impact...

Updating the repository community on activities of UTD project, and progress since then, in UK universities.

Unlocking Thesis Data (UTD) is a community-driven project to promote the use of persistent identifiers for theses, their underlying data and authors. By very nature, PhD theses break new ground advance scholarly knowledge. Most make newly-created but these can be trapped in an appendix or DVD – either unavailable not suited reuse. UTD will more discoverable citeable, thereby offering incentives students share appropriate formats, context sustainable national thesis framework. Funded by...
