The quasi-2-dimensional organic superconductor lambda-(BETS)2GaCl4 is one of the key materials in strongly correlated systems because of the distinct geometrical structure of... -
How complex is complex: an ALC study of a 10-mer helical peptide chain
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... -
Artificial [FeFe]-Hydrogenases and Muon Spectroscopy
Preliminary measurements of [FeFe]-hydrogenase model complexes were made in a previous experiment using EMU (RB 1010177). The results were interpreted in combination with DFT... -
Quantum Spin Liquid in a triangular rare-earth based magnet
The rise of quantum materials observed in the past decades has been a source of great excitement for condensed matter scientists, with the flourishing of new concepts and... -
Interaction of muonium centres and excess carriers in highly injected silicon
We have developed a method to measure carrier recombination lifetime in crystalline silicon with the photo-muSR technique. The key of the method is to measure the dependence of... -

We propose to study PdxIrTe2, which evolves from a charge-orbital density wave state to a superconducting state with doping. It has a similar structural motif, doping-dependent... -
A survey of skyrmions
Skyrmions are topological excitations that exist in a variety of magnetic insulators. Here we propose to complete our previous experiment (RB1320198) with the aim of producing a... -
Partitioning of lidocaine into a model lipid system using avoided level cross...
Drug design and development is a costly business with a high attrition rate. There are many reasons why a drug may fail to reach its target site of action but for those that... -
