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...

Understanding of chemical reactivity is founded on the fundamental concepts of Electrophilicity and Neucleophilicity. All extant attempts to do this depend on the reaction of...

Frustrated compounds belonging to the pyrochlore family have attracted significant interest as they can host a huge variety of exotic phases. In order to explore the rich phase...

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...

Muon interactions with quadrupolar nuclear spins have occasionally been studied by theirlevel crossing resonance spectra. In an ideal case the quadrupole resonance level...

The work will aim to use the unique property of muons, as sensitive probes of their local magnetic environment, to investigate the source of the electronic magnetism observed in...

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...

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

Our previous studies of superconducting LiFeAs derivatives revealed a significant difference in Uemura scaling compared with all other studied pnictides. This experiment is...

The combination of strong magnetic frustration and low spin found in the S=1/2 quantum antiferromagnet is believed to lead to non-classical magnetic behaviour, and in particular...

We propose a set of measurements using the HiFi spectrometer in which muon level-crossing resonances are used to probe the internal field inside antiferromagnets in which the...

The elusive OMu radical is believed to be formed by muonium reaction with nitrous oxide but has never been directly observed. It would be invisible to transverse-field muon spin...

The reversible interconversion of protons and dihydrogen is an electrochemical process of fundamental importance to a hydrogen economy. The process requires catalysis to proceed...

Low-dimensional quantum magnetism continues to be of great theoretical and experimental interest, as reduced dimensionality supports strong quantum fluctuations which can result...

One-dimensional (1D) spin chain is important for understanding low-dimensional magnetism and useful for advancing quantum communications. In the present proposal we are...

The extreme quantum nature of muons and muonium in condensed matter is the result of having a mass that is nine times lighter than that of a hydrogen atom. While this quantum...

We propose a continuation of experiment RB910427, for EMU after the station upgrade. We would like to use muon spin relaxation spectroscopy to probe the spin dynamics in the...

We have observed an anomalous monotonically increasing longitudinal field relaxation rate in LiY_(1-x)Ho_xF_4 for applied fields above 1000 G (along the c-axis) and at a...

We propose a study to characterize diffusive motion of muonium, charge cycles and Mu0 states in vanadium dioxide (VO2) using zero and longitudinal field muon spin depolarization...
