This proposal aims to characterise the spin dynamics of three Pr-based pyrochlores that may be realisations of quantum spin ice materials. The lower moment and larger wave...

Among the rare earth titanates and stannates cristallising in the pyrochlore crystal structure, Tb2Ti2O7 is a singular system since its ground state is believed to be a spin...

Pyrochlore magnets of formula R2Ti2O7 or R2Sn2O7 constitute the paradigm for geometrical frustration on a 3D lattice. Spinel compounds CdR2X4, where the R sublattice forms a...

Antioxidants are very important molecules because they can prevent or slow down the oxidative damage to our bodies. When our bodies use oxygen, free radicals are released which...

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...

Tb2Ti2O7 is one of two compounds identified as potential quantum spin ices. As with other oxide pyrochlores the properties depend sensitively on the oxygen stoichiometry. Most...

Quadrupolar level crossing resonance (QLCR) occurs in the muSR of solids with diamagnetic muon states in close proximity to quadrupolar nuclei. This effect provides uniquely...

There have been ALC studies on the interaction of muons with native proteins, but little systematic work that contributes understanding of how spectroscopic information alters...

Our ability to control the synthesis of this kind of material has led to the development of a family of Ru-Ru-M-backbone organometallic compounds with general formula...

Our first completed photo-musr experiment on 6,13-bis(tri-iso propylsilylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS-Pn) has recently been accepted for publication. We observed a significant...

A magnetic response of the alkali-metal superoxides comes from the p-orbital S = 1/2 spins of anionic O2- molecules. As the O2- molecules are highly reorientable and the...

BeO is a promising material in order to improve HfO2-based MOSFET devices, and a candidate substitute of HfO2 as high-k gate material. The electrical properties of BeO can be...

We plan to measure the hyperfine constants for both the muon and the equivalent hydrogen atom in a small muonated radical using time-differential ALC. We will follow this as a...
