One of us has recently found experimental evidence for unconventional superconductivity in a newly synthesized three-dimensional nearly antiferromagnetic metal, LaAg1−xMnx...

Recent research in to Carbon Nanotubes filled with magnetic materials has produced some interesting results that have the potential to bring about new computing technology. In...

While investigating the ordering and magnetic dynamics in La2-xSrxCoO4 we found some intriguing behaviour for samples with small x, which would imply that the phase diagram is...

Properties of graphene that make it an important material are its exceptionally high conductivity, massless fermions and a high velocity of electrons near the Dirac points....

Interactions between CO2 and clay have attracted interest in the scientific community recently. This is partly motivated by the presence of large amounts of clays in caprock...

Lithium (Li) ion batteries is the most common battery technology but lately also sodium (Na) batteries are being considered. One reason is that the Li-reserves are limited and...

The superconductivity is a very important quantum phenomenon occurring in many materials. However the microscopic origin of it is still not completely understood and is one of...

This study involves attempting to understand the Li atom diffusion within Li-intercalated hexagonal boron nitride. Muons present a significant advantage as they are sensitive to...

Cs2Cu3SnF12 and Rb2Cu3SnF12 have a distorted kagome structure and the latter exhibits a pinwheel valence bond solid (VBS) state that has been demonstrated by inelastic neutron...

Batteries are ubiquitous in everday applications but making them cheaper, safer, and able to store more energy could widen their use still further. Many rechargeable batteries...

In recent years, the family of lead halide perovskite materials (e.g. MAPbI3) has attracted substantial interest due to their unique combination of properties and potential...

Polar or non-centrosymmetric ferri(-o)magnets offer a plethora of potential technological devices; the inherent magnetoelectric effect can underpin both pyroelectric or...

We aim to continue our investigation of the high temperature magnetic interactions in LaCoO3. Our previous experiment has confirmed magnetic susceptibility data, with a change...

The constant global demand on energy resources, coupled to a diminishing supply of fossil fuels, has pushed Li-ion battery cathode development to the research forefront....

Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected objects that exist in the spin texture of certain magnetic materials. We have shown that muon spin relaxation is a powerful...

A basic understanding of the dynamic processes in polystyrene (PS) is a question of utmost interest and has technological ramifications due to its importance in commercial...

This proposal describes a continuation muSR experiment on Li-Mn-oxides to see Li diffusion, because muSR is a powerful technique to detect it in the compounds containing...

The structure and dynamics of hydrogen (H) defects in tungsten recently become a topic of major interest since this metal has been chosen as shielding material for the next step...

Vanadium oxides have attracted considerable attention, not only due to their potential technological applications, but also because of the rich variety of structures and...

In the proposed experiment ammonia borane (NH_3BH_3) will be investigated through incoherent inelastic neutron scattering on TOSCA at low temperature. Since it is well known...
