We propose to perform high-resolution neutron diffraction on strained Ca3Ru2O7, a material in which electron correlations, spin-orbit coupling and crystal fields combine to...

Justification: We'd like to apply for three days Director’s Discretionary time on WISH to continue the experiment on measures of quantum entanglement in a model 1D magnet. This...

In recent years, there has been a large research interest in noncentrosymmetric systems in part due to the exotic physics these systems display. Examples of chiral magnets...

We propose to fully explore the field induced magnetically ordered phase of copper-nitrate, Cu(NO3)2.2.5D2O, at temperatures below 0.13 K and in fields up to 5 T. The key aims...

Multiferroic materials, where there is a strong coupling between magnetic and electric order parameters, offer a route to novel voltage-controlled spintronics. Y-type...

We propose to investigate the field induced behaviour of ErB4 using WISH. ErB4 is an example of experimental realisation of the Shastry-Sutherland lattice, a frustrated lattice...

There is a growing need to reduce dependence on liquid He for cooling applications below 20 K. Magnetocalorics, which exhibit an entropically driven cooling effect in a cycled...

In BaDy2O4, the magnetic Dy3+ ions are arranged in a network of triangles and hexagons, and coupled with antiferromagnetic exchange interactions, which gives rise to geometric...

Using high-temperature high-pressure synthetic methods we have recently prepared the new quadruple perovskite CaFe3Ti4O12. Curie-Weiss magnetic susceptibility and Mossbauer data...

We have observed an interesting phenomenon of the destruction of long-range magnetic order in SrEr2O4 by a relatively modest applied magnetic field. For a field applied along...

This proposal requests time to investigate the influence of an applied magnetic field on the oxyselenide Pr2O2Fe2OSe2. A metamagnetic transition involving ordering of Pr3+...

Test of the NIMS low temperature pressure cell on WISH.

Manganese based oxides are of great interest for both spintronic and multiferroic applications.Pb2MnO4 crystallizes in the acentric but non-polar space group P-421c which allows...

Magnetic fluids are used in conjunction with applied magnetic fields in several medical applications including drug and gene delivery, imaging and hyperthermia cancer therapy....

CuMnAs has emerged as a testbed system for studying the interaction between spin-orbit coupled charge carriers and antiferromagnetic order, with potential applications in...

Both 1D physics (dimensional frustration) and geometric frustration offer ways of achieving unusual quantum ground states that defy the usual tendency for systems to order at...

We propose to use neutron diffraction to establish the magnetic structure of D-type of Er2Si2O7 in zero field first with a view of extending the measurements to an applied field...

Purely ferromagnetic (FM) oxides are uncommon but we recently reported FM behaviour in a mineral induced by quite small magnetic fields. This ability relates to the presence of...

In 1972, Haupt observed a giant enhancement of proton polarisation in NMR experiments on crystalline g-picoline. Key to this discovery was the implementation of quick...

We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments under high-pressure and high-magnetic-filed on multiferroic CuFeO2 using WISH in combination with hybrid-anvil-cell (up to...
