Halogenomethane derivatives exhibit thermally induced solid¿solid phase transitions before melting that are attributed to the ability to gain rotational degrees of freedom in...

We propose a study of the magnetic structure of isotopically enriched Gd2Ti2O7. We have successfully grown and characterised large single crystals using low-absorption 160Gd. In...

Recently a number of studies have been reported in FM/SC multilayers on proximity effect. Taking a step forward we propose to study coupling of SC and FM layers through an...

The long period cycloid in multiferroic BiFeO3 influences the potential applications of this material and it has been shown that doping (with La and Mn) enlarges the cycloid...

Cupric(II) oxide (CuO) has recently found to be both antiferromagnetic and ferroelectric in temperature region from 213 K to 230 K. This high temperature multiferroic material...

Carbon blacks can be graphitised to different degrees, whereas glassy (vitreous) carbons, which are used as electrode material, in electronics and construction, and as...

One of the current challenges in solid state physics is the observation and ultimately control of the Majorana excitations sometimes called Majorana fermions. Devices based on...

Neutron Compton scattering experiments will be performed for the first time on amorphous metallic system. Obtained results for Zr50Be50 system will be compared with existing...

The use of the J 0-to-1 rotational transition of dihydrogen has been extensively used to characterise the state if hydrogen in and on materials. The disadvantage of studying the...

Previous powder diffraction studies of the superoxygenated La(2-x)Sr(x)CuO(4+y) (LSCO+O) system have not provided a model describing the superstructures of the intercalated...

Insensitive munitions (IM) are munitions that will not react violently to accidental insult, thus they are relatively safe to handle and store. Ongoing research into IM has led...

Propene plays an important role in various petro-chemical applications, such as the production of polypropylene and acrylic acid, but is dependent on the fluctuating prices of...

With the overall aim of extending the information derivable in a neutron single crystal diffraction experiment beyond the static structure, we are proposing to perform a...

Ferromagnetism in URhGe is continuously suppressed with a magnetic field leading to a Quantum Critical Point (QCP) at around 12 T engulfed by a pocket of superconductivity. The...

We have synthesized a new cobalte oxide compound. We know from preliminary measurements that its crystal structure is hexagonal, and that the magnetic behaviour is intriguing....

The Ce-based materials CeTX3 (T=transition metal, X= Si, Ge, Al) crystallizing in the noncentrosymmetric BaNiSn3-type structure, have been found to display a wealth of novel...

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...

Ruthenium-based SO2 complexes present attractive prospects for next-generation 3-D optical data storage. Light is absorbed by the SO2 group, causing its dark state geometry (0)...

The defect thiospinel, GeV4S8 adopts a cubic structure at room temperature (space group F-43m). We have identified a new monoclinic phase of this material at 2K, which may be...

We propose to investigate the resonance peak in superconducting CeCoIn5 as a function of applied field. Preliminary low resolution cold triple-axis data has been suggestive that...
