Iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) have been an essential research area in condensed matter physics. Spins of iron sites forming a long periodic configuration, called the...

Modulation occurs when there is ordering on two (or more) length scales. When the ratio of these is an integer, the modulation is said to be commensurate, i.e. one ordering is...

The present proposal concerns a PEGylated, hydrophobic drug containing polylysine dendrimer that demonstrates unexplained batch-to-batch variability in that two batches of the...

We have recently discovered a pressure-induced quantum phase transition (QPT) at 4.3 kbar in the gapped quantum magnet piperazinium hexachlorodicuprate (PHCC) by means of...

We have recently discovered that above 2 GPa in the liquid/fluid forms water and methanebecome miscible in proportions up to 33 mole% of methane. This proposal is for time to...

In the soil environment, organic matter such as humic acid has a strong influence on the behaviour of organic pollutants such as perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and their...

The rare-earth compound KYbSe2 provides a new chance for the study of frustrated magnets with strong SOC. It resembles YbMgGaO4 in many ways. Our susceptibility and specific...

With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities...

Our previous PEARL experiment (RB1810619) on LTL zeolite with fluorinert as a pressure-transmitting fluid contradicts the data we collected using silicon oil as...

The solid solution Mn(1-x)Fe(x)WO4 exhibits complex antiferromagnetic order with coexistence of commensurate and incommensurate magnetic structures. Furthermore, the MnWO4 end...

In situ composite materials based upon refractory metal - silicide eutectics are being considered for high temperature structural applications. These materials derive their high...

Surfactants are known to charge colloidal surfaces in nonpolar solvents, but only a small number of different molecules have been explored. Recent experiments demonstrate that...

We have recently prepared a new strontium ruthenate, SrRu2O6, using hydrothermal chemistry. The material shows magnetic order, probably ferromagnetic, than persists above, and...

Whilst rechargeable batteries continue to take over the consumer electronics market, they are unsuitable to replace specific battery technologies, such as the thermal battery,...

Benzotriazole (BTAH) has been known to be a very effective corrosion inhibitor for copper and its alloys. Adsorption of BTAH from oil is a relatively less researched area...

Gallium has a low melting point and forms a liquid just above room temperature. The melting curve has a negative slope and when pressure is applied room pressure phases will...

The interactions between benzene molecules in the solid phase is of fundamental interest. Benzene is often used as a model system for structure prediction methodologies and...

In typical odontological studies water sorption in the restoration material is determined by weighing freshly mixed cement at regular intervals. In the case of resin-modified...

The application of hydrostatic pressure tunes the interatomic separations within a compound, causing changes in the electronic structure. This alters many other material...

Cubic cadmium(II) cyanide shows the most pronounced isotropic NTE effect known, with behaviour more than twice as extreme as that of better known materials such as ZrW2O8. This...
