Study of a spin gap and CEF excitations in the caged compounds CeT2Al10 (T=Fe...
This proposal was submitted on MERLIN (RB1010206) and beam time was allocated on MARI. We have carried out low energy measurements on MARI and found a clear evidence of the spin... -
Can we use the H-H stretch of adsorbed dihydrogen to characterise materials?
The use of the J 0-to-1 rotational transition of dihydrogen has been extensively used to characterise the state if hydrogen in and on materials. The disadvantage of studying the... -
Inelastic neutron scattering of non-Fermi-liquid behaviour in Ce2PdIn8
For non-Fermi liquid compounds, the dynamical susceptibility, as determined from inelastic neutron scattering, is particularly interesting as it exhibits universal energy... -
Solvent Segregation in Phase-Separated Li-NH3-MeNH2
We request 2 days on MAPS (or 3 days on MARI) to determine the extent of solvent segregation in a liquid-liquid phase-separated metal-amine: The Li-NH3-MeNH2 system. Recently we... -
The application of INS to examine a Fischer-Tropsch-to-Olefin catalyst that h...
In conjunction with an industrial partner (Sasol Technology UK), the applicants have previously used INS measurements performed on the MAPS spectrometer to characterize a series... -
High precision measurements of the spin wave dispersion in Yttrium Iron Garnet
Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG) is a material with extremely wide ranging applications, having the narrowest ferromagnetic resonance linewidth of any known material. Despite decades... -
Exploring magnetic frustration in a square-lattice metallic system: spin fluc...
Spin liquid is a novel phenomena that can arise due to magnetic frustration. Magnetic frustration occurs if the competing interactions cannot be mutually satisfied, giving rise... -
Spin excitations in RbFe2F6 and CsFe2F6 A possible S=5/2 Kagome lattice?
Geometrically frustrated spin systems are important owing to the fact that the geometry often suppresses conventional mean field ground states in favor of more unconventional... -
Spin excitations in RbFe2F6 ¿ A possible S=5/2 Kagome lattice?
We propose to investigate the spin fluctuations in a candidate S=5/2 Kagome lattice. Previous neutron diffraction has found that RbFe2F6 maybe a good realization of a Kagome... -
Effect of electron doping on the magnetic dynamics of the d^4 Mott insulator ...
Oxides containing heavy transition-metal ions with four d electrons (d^4) surrounded by an octahedron of oxygen ions have recently been predicted to display a novel type of... -
Magnetic Excitations of Isolated and Pairs of Co Ions and in MgO
The magnetic excitations will be studied in a powdered sample of 3% CoO in 97% MgO in order to to study the excitations of isolated Co ions and of isolated pairs of Co ions.... -

High Energy Spin Excitations in Overdoped Superconducting BaFe1.85Ni0.15As2
The recent discovered iron pnictide superconductor which shows a transition temperature up to 50K has drawn much attention in the community. There are indications that... -
Study of frustration and the anomalous Hall effect in Fe3Sn2
We have found unusual and promising Hall effect behaviour in the alloy Fe3Sn2 at 300K. Fe3Sn2 is predominantly ferromagnetic, however, our neutron diffraction data indicate that... -
The relationship between the pseudogap and magnetic excitations in La2-xSrxCuO4
This proposal is part of an ongoing project to relate the magnetic excitations to other electronic properties of the cuprate superconductors. We have recently proposed that the... -
The Metal to Insulator Transition (MIT) in Bi1.7V8O16 probed with neutron spe...
We propose to investigate the low energy spin and orbital fluctuations in Bi1.7V8O16 which displays a metal to insulator transition. This work will be performed in conjunction... -
Relaxation dynamics of a Dy-based single molecule magnet
Single-molecule magnets (SMM) exhibiting slow magnetic relaxation have attracted increasing interest, both from a fundamental point of view, and for the potential practical... -
Simultaneous Raman and INS studies of high energy excitations in C70
The vibrational spectrum of C70 has been investigated by many techniques since it became available in significcant quantities. Previous INS spectra were recorded with small... -
Investigation of nonmagnetic degenerated ground state in a cubic 4f2 system P...
Praseodymium-based cubic compounds with a 4f2 configuration have attracted much attention. In case the crystalline electric field ground state is a nonmagnetic doublet, the... -
Alkali ions dependent collective excitations in borate glasses
Recently, it has been suggested that the First Sharp Diffraction Peak (FSDP) in glasses arises from a quasi-periodicity of void spaces in the structure, that plays the role of...
