Using muons to investigate the excitation spectrum in low-dimensional molecul...
We propose to use longitudinal field muon-spin relaxation to investigate the excitation spectrum of the most successful realizations of one- and two-dimensional antiferromagnets... -
Partial freezing of a Kagome Magnet
Ever since the first published consideration of the ground state of a triangular lattice of Ising spins by PW Andersen in the 50's, the pursuit of materials with geometrically... -
RF MuSR in the gas phase: the Search for a Radical State
The main spectroscopic technique for studying radicals in solids and liquids, ESR, cannot usually be used to study radicals of more than 3-5 atoms in the gas phase due to strong... -
Muon spin relaxation studies of KTCNQ and related compounds
Potassium tetracyanoquinodimenthane (KTCNQ) undergoes a spin-Peierls (SP) transition at 396K where a transformation from uniform to dimerised TCNQ- molecules in 1D columns... -
Models of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase active site: raising the symmetry
The [FeFe]-hydrogenase enzymes are some of the best catalysts know for generating hydrogen. We have an ongoing programme to understand how their chemistry works, and to... -
Kinetics of Hydrogen Abstraction in Alkanes by Mu Reactivity studied by RF Re...
Hydrogen abstraction reactions are key steps in free radical mechanisms that dominate the combustion and atmospheric chemistry of the alkane hydrocarbons and, as such, merit... -
Probing glassy magnetic transitions in structurally disordered (defect fluori...
Cubic A2B2O7 oxides with A standing for a rare-earth element and B for a transition or main block metal have been systematically studied for their frequently exotic... -
Investigating the muon radical in Sulphur
Recent muon level-crossing measurements in the stable orthorhombic alpha-phase of sulphur indicate the existence of a radical state, with an interesting temperature evolution.... -

Quantum spin ice physics in Pr-based pyrochlores
In order to explore quantum spin ice physics, we wish to focus on the non-Kramers Pr-based pyrochlores with general formula Pr2M2O7 (M =Sn, Zr, Hf). There is a recent... -
μSR study of the magnetic ordering in the S=1 linear chain compounds RbN...
The quasi 1-D magnets ANiCl3: A = Cs, Tl, order magnetically in two steps. A partially ordered state between TN1 and TN2 and a fully magnetic ordered state below TN2. RbNiCl3... -
Muon spin dynamics in ZnSe
We intend to detail the muonium dynamics and investigate the interaction with charge carriers in n-type ZnSe. A doped ZnSe sample (resistivity=10^4 Ohm.cm, n=10^13 cm^-3) is... -
MuSR study to investigate a small moment magnetic ordering in Ce(Os1-xIrx)2Al...
Our muSR study on Ce(Os1-xFex)2Al10 with x=0.4, which reveals long range magnetic ordering below 24K from the heat capacity, shows unexpected behaviour. The muSR spectra only... -
Low Temperature Dynamics in beta-Mn
beta-manganese is the only room-temperature-stable crystal structrure of elemental manganese, which remains paramagnetic at all temperatures. This is in stark contrast to both... -
Muonium in rare-earth sesquioxides
We propose to characterize the basic muonium/hydrogen configurations in selected rare-earth sesquioxides with the basic crystallographic structures: neodymium oxide (hexagonal A... -

Probing magnetic ground state in Chromium doped topological insulator
The topological insulating materials doped with the magnetic impurity recently attracts special attention for the spintronic applications, where possible coexistence of magnetic... -
Hunting for the low-temperature, low-field magnetization plateau in Tb2Ti2O7
Tb2Ti2O7 is a pyrochlore antiferromagnet that has previously been viewed as a spin liquid. This description fails to describe key features of its physics and more recently the... -
Muon level-crossing resonances as a probe for studying antiferromagnets at pu...
We propose a set of measurements using the HiFi spectrometer in which muon level-crossing resonances are used to probe the internal field inside antiferromagnets in which the...
