The spin ½ kagomé Heisenberg antiferromagnet (AFM) is an ideal system to look for a large variety of interesting properties characterized by exotic magnetic ground states. Here...

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...

Metallic systems with one-dimensional chain-like atomic structure can support unusual mechanisms for electron pairing leading to superconductivity. K_2Cr_3As_3 is one of a...

Recent progress in the field of molecular magnetism has shown the clear potential for gaining control over the structural building blocks of molecular materials in order to...

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

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...

We plan to perform transverse field and zero-field μSR experiments to investigate the temperature dependence of the relaxation rate in the superconducting phase of...

Microwave (MW) assisted chemical reactions are of interest as a green, energy efficient alternative to conventional thermal heating for chemical processes. MW irradiation...

Topological physics was the subject of this year's Nobel Prize for Physics and over forty years after the groundbreaking work of Kosterlitz, Thouless and Haldane, remains an...

In a vast majority of materials that contain a magnetic ion the interaction between magnetic moments residing on magnetic ions causes them to order in a particular fashion. The...

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...

It has been suggested that within green dipotase there the magnetism is dominated by quantum flucuations but evidence for this is not definitive. This means that in this...

Topological insulators (TIs) are of inherent interest as they are conducting on the surface whilst insulating on the bulk. We would like to investigate magnetically doped...

Superconductivity was recently discovered in alpha-phase FeSex with a Tc of 8 K. Selenium can be replaced with Tellurium (FeSe1-xTex) and this results in an increase in Tc to 15...

In this proposal we propose to investigate the detailed superconducting properties of the superconducting compound Re6Zr with the non-centrosymmetric α-Mn structure....

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

PdxTaSe2 series is an excellent system for the investigation of the interplay between CDW and superconductivity which shows quantum critical point for x = 0.1. Very recently, we...

Lithiation can be used to control the superconductivity in layered lithium iron selenide hydroxides, transferring iron from one layer (the lithium hydroxide layer) to the active...
