Recently a handful of non-centrosymmetric Ce-based HF compounds with general formula CeTX3 (T=transition mental and X=Si or Ge) have been reported to exhibit superconductivity...

The spin relaxation rates of free radicals in solution can provide valuable information about the dynamics of molecular tumbling in solution, and solvent-radical interactions....

Single-Molecular Magnets (SMMs) provide access to the mesoscopic world. They possess slow magnetization relaxation due to an energy barrier induced by axial magnetic anisotropy,...

The Sr3CuPtxxIr1-xO6 system has been considered to be a candidate random quantum spin chain. (RQS). For x=1 adjacent S=1/2 Cu2+ions are antiferromagnetically (AF) coupled to...

In this proposal we wish to explore how the RF-uSR technique might be developed for measurements akin to FT-NMR. Our work will focus on the broadband excitation of paramagnetic...

Recently the coexistence of superconductivity (SC) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering has been reported in CeNi0.8Bi2 with TSC = 4.2 K and TN =5 K, which crystallises in the...

The rare earth titanates and stannates cristallising in the pyrochlore crystal structure are prone to magnetic frustration effects due to the topology of their lattice. We have...

Pure Ho2Ti2O7 exhibits spin ice beahviour. Studies of doped spin ice, replacing Ho with non-magnetic Y, suggest that the spin ice state is present even when the amount of doping...

Amongst layered materials, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are studied extensively due to their complex phase diagrams exhibiting competing phases. Intercalation...

We aim to explore the groundstate of a new near-perfect S=1/2 kagome antiferromagnetic (KAFM) system using MuSR at the lowest possible temperatures. The title compound is...

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...

Au4V is an extremely unusual alloy. Neither Au nor V is generally found to carry a magnetic moment in the metallic state, yet the body-centred tetragonal (bct), structurally...

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...

The quaternary boronitride superconductor La3Ni2B2N3-d (Tc~12-14 K) has a layered structure where LaN-LaN-LaN triple layer blocks alternate with NiB layers. These NiB sheets are...

LiCuSbO4 is a new 1D S =1/2 frustrated chain compound. Chains with frustrated ferromagnetic J1 and antiferromagnetic J2 interactions are of significant interest due to the rich...

We plan to measure the electric field distribution in epoxy resin based dielectrics close to breakdown using muons to detect the free charge carriers that may contribute to...

We intend to perform the magnetic field penetration depth \lambda measurements on theoxygen reduced and Nb-doped SrTiO_3 -- the first oxide superconductors where two-gap...

The physics across the phase transitions in solids has been of topical interest in the condensed matter physics. For example, liquid and vapor coexist along the vapor pressure...

In this proposal we wish to explore how the RF-MuSR technique might be developed for measurements akin to FT-NMR. Our work will focus on the broadband excitation of paramagnetic...
