In this proposal we propose to investigate the detailed superconducting properties of the non-centosymmetric superconducting compound alpha-BiPd. Though this compound is...

Our recent experiment showed that muons implanted into black phosphorus (the most stable allotrope of the element, with a low band gap of 0.3eV) are apparently diamagnetic, with...

Recently, we have found a new multiferroics material FeTe2O5Br, with simultaneous ferroelectric and incommensurate magnetic orderings appear at TN = 11 K. Our neutron...

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

Strong spin-orbit coupling often leads to exotic properties in otherwise a well understood pool of 'paramagnetic' heavy ion oxides. For a 5d4 system a J=0 total angular momentum...

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...

A magnetic response of the alkali-metal superoxides comes from the p-orbital S = 1/2 spins of anionic O2- molecules. As the O2- molecules are highly reorientable and 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...

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...

In this proposal we propose to investigate the superconducting ground state of the non-centrosymmetric superconductor Ru7B3. Controversy exists over the nature of the...

Geometrically frustrated magnetic systems provide a plethora of opportunities to stabilize exotic ground state manifolds and have been at the forefront of current experimental...

Open p-shell anionic mixed-valence compounds have been recently proposed as intriguing model systems for disentangling the complex interplay of charge, lattice, orbital, and...

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...

The binary ruthenium pnictides RuAs and RuP exhibit metal-insulator (MI) transition below 200 K and 270 K, respectively, and show an evidence of pseudogap formation in their...

The quasi-2-dimensional organic superconductor lambda-(BETS)2GaCl4 is one of the key materials in strongly correlated systems because of the distinct geometrical structure of...

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...

Tb2Ti2O7 is one of two compounds identified as potential quantum spin ices. As with other oxide pyrochlores the properties depend sensitively on the oxygen stoichiometry. Most...

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 request four days of beam time to conduct zero, transverse, and longitudinal field measurements on pyrochlore iridates A2Ir2O7 (A-227) with A = Yb, Y, Nd in the temperature...

Muon spin relaxation will be used to study the low temperature magnetic properties of a new metal-oxalato-framework compound [(C2H5)3NH]2Cu2(C2O4)3. This has a three-dimensional...
