Skyrmions are topological objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials. As we have recently demonstrated in our transverse field...

What does a quantum particle do when you are not looking at it? For a classical moving object, like a golf ball, we know its trajectory even when we are not looking at it. This...

The effect of electric field on the diamagnetic and paramagetic muon spin rotation signals will be investigated for the organic molecular semiconductors NPB and TPBi . These...

Amyloid fibrils are highly organized filamentous structures formed by the self-assembly of polypeptides. This proposal is to study the effect of pressure on the structure of...

We will use time-resolved specular neutron reflectivity measurements to follow the in-situ growth of polymer brushes by surface-initiated ATRP. This will enable us to determine...

Spin ice (SI) is a state of matter characterized by a residual (Pauling) entropy and unusual correlations. The huge interest in SI materials from the magnetism community stems...

Time reversal symmetry (TRS) breaking in a superconductor is often taken as evidence of unconventional pairing states. The recent observation of TRS breaking in several...

We will study the formation of methane hydrates in situ in the presence of swelling clays. The aim is to understand and control heterogeneous hydrate nucleation at this...

We propose measurements of the elementary phonon-roton (p-r) excitations of liquid 4He confined in porous MCM-41 (45 Å pore diameter) at wave vectors Q ¿ beyond the roton¿, 2.4...

Spinels, which have formula AB2X4 and crystallise in the cubic space group, exhibit a rich landscape of structural, magnetic and electronic properties. However, superconducting...

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...

In the current work, we study inorganic solid-state electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries. These materials, unlike the traditional liquid electrolytes, could lead to a...

The molecular magnet [Sm(hfac)3(boaDTDA)]n is the first metal complex of a thiazyl-based neutral radical ligand to exhibit ferromagnetic ordering and was the subject of...

The MuSES project currently ongoing in the HiFi spectrometer gives unique opportunity in the field of photochemistry and photophysics of organic molecules. After two successful...

The new molecular magnet bis(2,3-dimethylpyridinium) tetrabromocuprate (DIMPY) is a strong-leg spin ladder with a quantum critical point at 3 T separating a low-field...

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...

One of the main goals of the research in Molecular Magnetism is to increase the blocking temperature TB of Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs). A significant breakthrough was...

We wish to perform longitudinal field measurements on the dipeptide Trp-Tyr under laserexcitation, to probe the electron transfer process within the molecule. We have already...

The search for unconventional superconductors has been a cornerstone of research in condensed matter physics for many years. Recently a key research interest has been...

The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at interfaces from surfactant self-assembly is an important structural signature associated with a wide range of technological...
