We propose to study the low-energy spin fluctuations in ferromagnetic metal CeAgSb2. The ordered moment is oriented away from the direction favored by the lattice. Recent...

It is possible that there is a coupling between the spin and gravitation, for instance by an adaptation of the Hamiltonian with an additional termH=k/c (gvec.Svec) where gvec is...

The mechanical behaviour of porous granular rocks is highly complex due to the fact that they exhibit a multiscale interaction of three different phases: grains, cement and...

Skyrmions are topologically protected, nano-sized objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials and are currently under intense...

A bistable composite tape-spring is a thin-walled, laminated open slit tube, which is stable in both the extended and coiled configurations. For its lightweight and...

Many formulations comprise distinct chemical species that exhibit antagonistic or synergistic interactions that result in unpredictable behaviour. Previous work from our group...

In power generation plants, many critical components are subjected to complex tension-compression cyclic loading followed by long-term creep dwells. While uniaxial creep...

The R&D activity on neutron detectors is strategic and instrumental for the development of reliable application of the neutron techniques. We propose to use two equal...

Mitochondria are not only the powerhouse of the cell, but are also involved in cellular suicide via apoptosis (programmed cell death). The mitochondrial apoptotic pathway is a...

Softwood hemicellulose (galactoglucomannan, GGM) is one of the major plant polysaccharides found in cell walls after cellulose. It makes up to 25% of the wood in Sweden,...

Nickel based super alloys are utilized at high temperatures, in aggressive environments, and therefore important for aeroengine applications. RR1000 is a nickel-based...

The spin Seebeck effect (SSE) is a newly discovered phenomenon that if harnessed, could result in a significant improvement of the efficiency of thermoelectric generators. The...

Detector test required for ChipIr on ROTAX

We wish to investigate the magnetic structure of a series of magnetic multilayers using a new technique we have successfully implemented called Spin Echo Modulated Small Angle...

Suspension thermal spraying (STS) techniques enable the use of sub-micron powder particles as feedstock, as opposed to the traditional use of dry powders with micrometric size,...

Protein-surfactant interactions at an interface play an important role for broad applications in the chemical, dairy, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Rubisco is the most...

Recently we have trialled the new techniques enabled on Larmor which permit simultaneous measurements of nanoscale and macroscale structure. These experiments gave new insights...

The present proposal concerns a PEGylated, hydrophobic drug containing polylysine dendrimer that demonstrates unexplained batch-to-batch variability in that two batches of the...

DINS is capable of observing coherent tunneling of protons in a double well potential through the effects of the tunneling on the momentum distribution of the protons. In our...

Iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) have been an essential research area in condensed matter physics. Spins of iron sites forming a long periodic configuration, called the...
