Muon-spin rotation study of the in-plane magnetic penetration depth of \refraof
This is an extention of the previous proposal (RB920385), which was awarded 7 days.The experiment has not been performed yet (scheduled in November), but we forsee... -
µSR Study of the Ternary Silicides MRSi (M=Nb, Ta R=Re, Ru)
We propose to investigate the detailed superconducting properties of the non-centrosymmetric ternary silicides MRSi (where M=Nb, Ta R=Re, Ru). We plan to investigate the vortex... -
Understanding the superconductivity in the non-centrosymmetric superconductor...
There has been a great deal of interest in non-centrosymmetric superconductivity, mainly induced by the discovery of CePt3Si. The presence or lack of inversion has important... -
Isovalent cation substitution and the AF-SC boundary of oxypnictides
We have prepared a new family of electron-doped oxypnictides \RFeF\ with the same average Rare Earth radius as that yielding the highest superconducting Tc to date, i.e. the... -
Investigation of spin-glass behaviour in the cubic compound PrRhSn3 using muSR
Recently we have investigated the cubic compound PrRhSn3 using the dc and ac susceptibilities and the heat capacity. We found an evidence for the cluster-glass behavior with a... -
Low Temperature Properties of a Uniform S=1/2 Triangular Lattice System
It is proposed to use ZF and TF muSR to study the low temperature, low field part of the phase diagram of Ba3CuSb2O9, a system with a uniform triangular lattice of S=1/2 Cu ions... -
Antiferromagnetism and Magnetic Frustration in Ba2MnMoO6
We propose to use muon spin relaxation to examine the anomalous magnetic phase behaviour of Ba2MnMoO6. This compound shares the frustrated geometry that leads to a valence bond... -
Time reversal symmetry breaking in superconducting PrOs4Sb12 and its alloys
In 2005 we carried out muon spin relaxation (muSR) experiments in Pr(Os1-xRux)4Sb12 alloys at KEK, Tsukuba, Japan, to investigate the time-reversal symmetry breaking found in... -
The structure-magnetism relationship in hydrogen bonded coordination polymers
Gaining control of the building blocks of magnetic materials will enable the design and growth of bespoke magnetic devices. However, the ability to tune the magnetic... -
Field induced spin Luttinger liquid phase in a spin ladder
Spin ladders present a class of low dimensional quantum magnets that occupy a regime of subtle behaviour which lies between the stark extremes of a one-dimensional chain or... -
The Role of the Electron-Phonon Interaction in Non-Centrosymmetric Supercondu...
The development of spontaneous fields in the superconducting state in non-centrosymmetric superconductors is shown by a number but not all such superconductors. Our recent... -
Single Crystal Study of Unconventional Superconductivity in Ru7B3
Our recent µSR measurements on a polycrystalline sample of Ru7B3 has shown that this material is an excellent example of broken time reversal symmetry on entering the... -
A µSR STUDY OF THE SUPERCONDUCTING GROUD STATE OF LA3NI2B2N3-d
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... -
Oxygen deficiency in the quantum spin ice Tb2Ti2O7
Tb2Ti2O7 is one of two compounds identified as potential quantum spin ices. As with other oxide pyrochlores the properties depend sensitively on the oxygen content. Most... -
A µSR study of unconventional spin fluctuation mediated superconductivity in ...
One of us has recently found experimental evidence for unconventional superconductivity in a newly synthesized three-dimensional nearly antiferromagnetic metal, LaAg1−xMnx...
