The possibility of superconductivity in tetragonal FeS has attracted considerable interest because of its similarities to the FeSe superconductor. However, for a long time all...

It is of great interest to explore possible unconventional superconductivity with multiband pairing state as observed is observed in high Tc Fe-based superconductor. Unusual...

Noncentrosymmetric superconductors are expected to exhibit a highly unconventional ground-state, which consists of an admixture of spin-singlet and spin-triplet Cooper pairs....

The archetype chiral system MnSi belongs to the family of non-centrosymmetric cubic helimagnets where a helimagnetic ordering exists below the critical temperature of 29 K. This...

Ce-compounds are well known to present very rich physics and exotic electronic ground state due to the competing RKKY, Kondo and crystal field interactions. Recently CeRuPO...

Tb2Ti2O7 is one of two compounds identified as potential quantum spin ices. As with other oxide pyrochlores the properties depend sensitively on the oxygen stoichiometry. Most...

This is a continuation proposal, for work carried out previously on the EMU and MuSR spectrometers. We have determined that spin fluctuations are present in this system, by...

The investigation of electron correlations in intermetallic alloys is fascinating. At times, depending on the nature and strength of correlations, the compounds exhibit...

We seek to continue our study of CsNiCl3 to determine the nature of the two magnetic transitions.Previous experiments at PSI have shown there are two distinct muons sites, one...

A new family of FeAs superconductors have very recently (Autumn 2008) been discovered in which, rather than alternating rare earth oxide layers with FeAs layers (as for the new...

In centrosymmetric heavy-fermion (HF) superconductors Cooper pairs have either singlet or triplet symmetry. Recently a handful of non-centrosymmetric Ce-based HF compounds have...

Pyrochlore oxides of the type A2B2O7 (where A = trivalent rare earth, B = tetravalent transition metal element) can form geometrically frustrated magnets displaying a range of...

ZrB12 is a cluster boride compound which is superconducting at 6K although the source of the pairing interaction appears to come from the Zr ions with the boron acting as a...

Experimentally exploring the fascinating physics of one- and two-dimensional magnetism continues to rely on the synthesis of novel, model systems with highly anisotropic...

The field of non-centrosymmetric (NCS) superconductors has gathered much attention in recent years owing to its unconventional behavior. The lack of inversion symmetry in this...

-The quasi-kagome Kondo lattice CeRhSn exhibits quantum criticality induced by geometrical frustration. Divergent Grüneisen ratios provide evidence for a zero-field QCP. The...

Recently, Eckert and co-authors synthesised osmium based two superconductors, NbOsSi and TaOsSi, and found that these compounds exhibit superconductivity below a transition...

In this proposal we propose to continue our investigation into the LaNiC2 non-centrosymmetric superconductors. Previously, we have shown that in this system time reversal...

RE2Fe3Si5 are unusual superconducting systems, with coexistence of magnetism on the RE site with superconductivity ( the Fe does not support a magnetic moment). Of particular...

The unconventional filled skutterudite superconductor, PrPt4Ge12 (Tc~7.9K), was recently discovered, for wihch zero field muon spin relaxation (ZF-MuSR) experiments reveal that...
