Continued investigation of magnetic fluctuations in the Mn-doiped chalcopyrite semiconductor ZnGeP2 is proposed using LF-MuSR depolarization rates. Due to ferromagnetism above... -
Muonium in widegap oxides
This proposal is part of a long-range program aiming at determining the stable charge-state configurations, site and impurity energy levels (donor and/or acceptor) of hydrogen... -
Magnetism in NaTiO2
NaTiO2 has been predicted to have a variety of unusual magnetic states, depending sensitively on the details of the crystal structure and interaction strength between the... -
Using QLCR to Study Stopping Sites in Molecular Solids
Muon nuclear quadrupolar level crossing resonance is not a well-known technique, however it is extremely powerful. There is a large interest in probing the muon stopping site... -

Utilising Quadrupolar Level Crossing Resonance to Gain Important Information ...
There is much debate about muon stopping sites within materials and in many cases knowing where the muon stops is crucial to understanding the physical properties of different... -
Identifying the mechanism behind spin relaxation in organic materials
We wish to measure the low-field ALCs of a series of related functionalised acenes to identify which mechanism (spin orbit or hyperfine) is responsible for spin relaxation in... -
Relaxation plateau in the breathing pyrochlore antiferromagnet LiIn0.05Ga0.95...
In physics, frustration describes a situation where a system is unable to satisfy all of its internal interactions because of the geometry of its atomic structure. The most... -
A muon spin rotation/relaxation study of superconductivity in the noncentrosy...
Noncentrosymmetric superconductors have been identified as good candidates for unconventional superconductivity. In particular, there is the possibility of Cooper pairs with... -
Investigation of the reduced dimensionality and magnetic frustration in ACr3A...
The recently superconductivity in a quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) crystal structure, A2Cr3As3 (R=K, Rb and Cs), have been intensively investigated both experimentally and... -
Muon-spin rotation study of the in-plane magnetic penetration depth of \refraof
This is an extention of the previous proposal (RB920385), which was awarded 7 days.The experiment has not been performed yet (scheduled in November), but we forsee... -
Two Gap Superconductivity of ZrB12
ZrB12 is a cluster boride compound which is superconducting at 6K although the source of the pairing interaction appears to come from the Zr ions with the boron acting as a... -
