Superconductivity and magnetism in novel iron-based superconductors
Magnetism and superconductivity compete and coexist in many of the high temperature superconductors, and the newly discovered iron arsenides are no exception. Muon-spin rotation... -
Short-range magnetic correlations in Er(Ni,Cu)Al
The intermetallic alloys RNiAl and RCuAl have been of high interest for several years. They crystallize in the hexagonal structure (ZrNiAl-type) and form various and complicated... -
Level crossings in the open ring molecular magnet Cr8Cd
Molecular nanomagnets (MNMs) comprise clusters of exchange coupled transition metal ions which often have a negative anisotropy constant, favoring a ground state with a large... -
Two Band Behaviour of the Superconductivity of Lu2Fe3Si5
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... -

Recently we have investigated the superconducting state of the caged type compound R5Rh6Sn18 (R = Lu and Y) by using magnetization, heat capacity, and muon-spin relaxation or... -
Magnetic order in weakly coupled molecular magnetic systems
Two molecular magnetic systems are considered which show low-temperature ordered states. One of them is F4BImNN, a nitronyl nitroxide radical magnet, an excellent realization of... -
Magnetic structure of geometrically frustrated metal PdCrO2
The aim of the proposed experiment is two-fold, firstly to perform a test experiment using recently designed WISH goniometer on a crystal with magnetic domains. We believe that... -
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... -
A muon spin rotation/relaxation study of superconductivity in the noncentrosy...
Noncentrosymmetric superconductors have been identified as good candidates for unconventional superconductivity. In particular, there is the possibility of Cooper pairs with... -
Relaxation plateau in the breathing pyrochlore antiferromagnet LiIn0.05Ga0.95...
In physics, frustration describes a situation where a system is unable to satisfy all of its internal interactions because of the geometry of its atomic structure. The most... -

Rcently the NFL behaviour near an antiferromagnetic quantum critical point (AFQCP) has been investigated extensively. Very recently, we have investigated, for the first time,... -
Proton Conductivity in Phosphoric Acid: The Role of Nuclear Quantum Effects.
We propose to employ the neutron Compton scattering (NCS) in the realm of ionic liquids (iL), applying it to the protiated and deuterated variants of an archetipic IL, phosporic... -
Muon spin relaxation study of biskyrmions in MnNiGa
Skyrmions are chiral spin textures that exist in a variety of magnetic materials. These states are topologically non-trivial, which gives them stability expected to be useful... -
Magnetism in NaTiO2
NaTiO2 has been predicted to have a variety of unusual magnetic states, depending sensitively on the details of the crystal structure and interaction strength between the... -
Investigating magnetic ordering through μSR study in spin-chain Cu(NH3)4...
By the virtue of having an entangled ground state the Heisenberg spin ½ chain systems provide a suitable perform to test multi-qubit quantum information protocols. There have... -
Spin dynamics of Ce in the Noncentrosymmetric Heavy-Fermion Superconductors C...
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... -
Fluorine-arsenide superconductors
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... -
Electric field control in Multiferroic PbFe(1/2)Nb(1/2)O3
Lead iron niobate, PbFe${1/2}$Nb${1/2}$O$_{3}$ (PFN), is a multiferroic material exhibiting paraelectric to ferroelectric and paramagnetic to G-type antiferromagnetic... -
A µSR study on single crystals of the noncentrosymmetric superconductor La7Ni3.
Noncentrosymmetric La7Ni3 is one of the Th7Fe3 family of compounds. A lack of inversion symmetry in the Th7Fe3 crystallographic structure means that the superconducting members... -
