A better understanding of the magnetic excitation spectrum of LuFe2O4 is required to refine current models of the magnetoelectric coupling in this novel "electronic"...

Recently we have carried out inelastic neutron scattering measurements on Li2RuO3 to understand the nature of the phase transition at 550K. We have seen a clear inelastic...

Recently, superconductivity has been discovered in a number of materials whose lattices lack inversion symmetry, with important implications for the symmetry of the...

We propose to probe the development of the low-temperature magnetism in SrHo2O4 using a high count rate diffractometer such as WISH or GEM. SrHo2O4 belongs to a family of...

In order to understand the emergence of multiferroic behaviour in the RMnO3 type compounds, it is neccessary to understand the relationship between structural parameters such as...

We propose to investigate the effects of the electron- phonon interaction on the time reversal symmetry breaking phenomenon of non-cetrosymmetric superconductors. μSR is...

Recently a handful of non-centrosymmetric Ce-based HF compounds with general formula CeTX3 (T=transition mental and X=Si or Ge) have been reported to exhibit superconductivity...

We propose to investigate the structure of the new ¿ordered¿ phases within the Bi2Se3-Bi2Te3 phase diagram of the newly discovered Topological Insulators. The bulk properties of...

Pure Ho2Ti2O7 exhibits spin ice beahviour. Studies of doped spin ice, replacing Ho with non-magnetic Y, suggest that the spin ice state is present even when the amount of doping...

Our recent µSR measurements on a polycrystalline sample of Ru7B3 has shown that this material is an excellent example of broken time reversal symmetry on entering the...

In view of the interesting magnetic properties observed in CeTSi3 (T=Pt and Pd) and superconductivity in LaPdSi3 (TSC= 2.6 K), as well as the theoretical interest in...

There has been a great deal of interest in non-centrosymmetric superconductivity, mainly induced by the discovery of CePt3Si. The presence or lack of inversion has important...

We propose to carry out an inelastic neutron scattering experiment at LET to investigate the excitations in the quantum spin ice Yb2Ti2O7. In contrast to other single crystal...

We propose to investigate the detailed superconducting properties of the non-centrosymmetric ternary silicides MRSi (where M=Nb, Ta R=Re, Ru). We plan to investigate the vortex...

Noncentrosymmetric superconductors have been identified as good candidates for unconventional superconductivity. In particular, there is the possibility of Cooper pairs with...

A new class of materials called Topological Crystalline Insulator(TCI) has been recently proposedtheoretically and subsequently, SnTe has been discovered to exhibit all the...

We propose to investigate the structure of the new ¿ordered¿ phases within the Bi2Se3-Bi2Te3 phase diagram of the newly discovered Topological Insulators. The bulk properties of...

Evidence of long-range order has been observed in the diffuse neutron scattering data for a single crystal of HoTbTi2O7.A spin ice like pattern and pinch points coexist with the...

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...
