NaxC60 and LixC60 are wide theoretically studied systems for hydrogen storage. We recently investigated the hydrogen absorption/desorption of Na10C60 and we found that up to 3.5...

The new compound Li3Mg2RuO6 exhibits interesting structural and magnetic properties. The Ru5+ sublattice is intrinsically frustrated : chains, along various [110] directions, of...

CeCu2Si2 was the first heavy fermion superconductor and unlike those previously discovered, which were well explained by BCS theory, CeCu2Si2 is an unconventional...

ZrB12 is a cluster boride compound which is superconducting at 6K although the source of the pairing interaction appears to come from the Zr ions with the boron acting as a...

Very recently Sato et al., JPSJ 2018 have investigated superconductivity in the single crystals of CeIr3 (Tc = 3.4 K, which is highest among Ce compounds), which shows a weak...

Muon nuclear quadrupolar level crossing resonance is not a well-known technique, however it is extremely powerful. There is a large interest in probing the muon stopping site...

: Recently it has been reported from specific heat, resistivity, and susceptibility measurements that CeRh2Ga exhibits very interesting NFL behaviour. The specific heat divided...

Oxyhydrides represent a new class of materials which is as yet poorly understood. The recent exciting discovery of the first purely hydride conducting oxyhydride is promising...

As part of a project to develop new electronic materials based on the coupling of electronic and structural properties in new perovskites we have been investigating the...

CaAFe4As4 (A = K, Rb, Cs) and SrAFe4As4 (A = Rb, Cs) are the brand new Fe-based superconductors, only reported in 2016 and is abbreviated as “1144” compounds. Tc values of these...

Gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) is a frustrated system which has already been successfully studied using muons. This study extends the earlier work to high magnetic field and...

The field of non-centrosymmetric (NCS) superconductors has gathered much attention in recent years owing to its unconventional behavior. The lack of inversion symmetry in this...

Frustration in magnets could stabilize both order and disorder. Exploring frustrated magnetism is of great importance to understanding the quantum many-body physics and...

Antioxidants are very important molecules because they can prevent or slow down the oxidative damage to our bodies. When our bodies use oxygen, free radicals are released which...

Quantum spin liquid (QSL) is a novel state of matter where the spins are highly entangled with one another but fluctuate strongly down to zero temperature. It may be associated...

With increasing demands for high performance/capacity rechargeable batteries the materials science community is currently facing two severe issues. First of all there is from a...

Organic semiconductors have been of major interest in recent years. Amplified by the transition from fundamental physics to new commercial products and technologies, this new...

In the past years we have developed a method measuring carrier recombination lifetime in semiconductors using the photo-MuSR setup in HIFI. These studies have focused on...

Encouraged by many unconventional magnetic properties in the magnetically frustrated spin-chain compounds of the type A3MM'O6, we have recently synthesized a new member...

Molecular nanomagnets (MNMs) comprise clusters of exchange coupled transition metal ions which often have a negative anisotropy constant, favoring a ground state with a large...
