The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is thought to be responsible for the stabilization of weak ferromagnetism or magnetic spiral states in a number of diverse systems. An...

A giant enhancement of the heat capacity in La(Fe13-xSix) indicates the presence of large spin fluctuations at the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase transition. The nature of...

We propose to investigate the high frequency dynamics of ionic liquid (IL), 1octyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C8MIM]Cl) deuterated by means of Inelastic Neutron Scattering...

We have recently prepared mesoporous forms of various metals oxides. In some cases the imposition of a mesostructure changes other properties of the material significantly. One...

It is well known that water is the medium in which the overwhelming majority of biological processes take place. In cell membranes water molecules are thought to be essential to...

We propose to study the powder averaged spin fluctuations in a S=5/2 pryochlore - FeF3. Previous studies, corroborated by our own diffraction work on WISH, have measured that...

Geometrically frustrated systems such as pyrochlore compounds receive much attention since they display exotic magnetic states. The explanation lies on the large degeneracy of...

TCNQ salts have also seen extensive research within magnetic systems where there have been a large number of metal-organic compounds synthesised that show interesting...

A recently discovered new class of geometrically frustrated magnets is the family of cobalt oxides RBaCo4O7 (R=rare earth or Y). The structure is built up CoO4 tetrahedra which...

We propose to measure the powder-averaged spin excitation spectrum of LiFeAs, a new member of the ferropnictide family of superconductors. This compound is special because it is...
