Probing the magnetic ground state in one dimensional magnetic systems Ba3CrS5...
Most of the one dimensional spin chain compounds are antiferromagnetic with a rich magnetic phase diagram due to the magnetic frustration. We have synthesized Ba3CrS5 and... -
Spin-lattice relaxation in holmium-based high symmetry single-molecule magnets
The study of spin-lattice relaxation in mononuclear lanthanide complexes is justified by the potential applications of these so-called single-molecule magnets in quantum... -
Probing the Magnetism and Suspected Quantum Fluctuations in Green Dioptase
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... -
Cyclic Processes in Mid-Range SiGe Alloys
We propose longitudinal muon spin depolarization measurements to extract the energy for the T-site Mu acceptor level in mid-range SiGe alloys where a direct determination of the... -
Rotor dynamics in an organic quantum spin liquid candidate
Mimicking the motion of functional biological systems has become possible as a result of sophisticated modern nanotechnology and materials science.In the layered organic quantum... -

In the proposed experiment ammonia borane (NH_3BH_3) will be investigated through incoherent inelastic neutron scattering on TOSCA at low temperature. Since it is well known... -
Probing phase transitions in vanadium oxide polymorphs using muons
Vanadium oxides have attracted considerable attention, not only due to their potential technological applications, but also because of the rich variety of structures and... -
Chasing the hydrogen-saturated defects in tungsten with Muon spectroscopy
The structure and dynamics of hydrogen (H) defects in tungsten recently become a topic of major interest since this metal has been chosen as shielding material for the next step... -

BaCu2Ge2O7 is reported to be a one dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet, with three dimensional long range order at low temperatures due to small antiferromagnetic... -
Using muons to examine lithium diffusion behaviour in olivine nanoparticles
The constant global demand on energy resources, coupled to a diminishing supply of fossil fuels, has pushed Li-ion battery cathode development to the research forefront.... -
Kinetics of Hydrogen Abstraction in Butane by Mu Reactivity
Hydrogen abstraction reactions are key steps in free radical mechanisms that dominate the combustion and atmospheric chemistry of the alkane hydrocarbons and, as such, merit... -
uSR study of low temperature magnetism in Li NMC 811
LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (Li NMC 811) is a next generation Li ion battery cathode material. We are investigating the magnetic properties of Li NMC 811 to track the changes in local... -
