In a typical magnetic material the interactions between neighbouring magnetic moments will tend to lead to their ordered alignment throughout the entire structure as it is...

Recent investigations of physical properties of ACo2As2 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) indicate that Co-based arsenides could be a potential parent compound like the parent AFe2As2. While...

Rare-earth tri-tellurides (RETe3, RE = Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm) are materials with 2D electronic character and have a charge-density wave (CDW) phase...

The presence of a Hebel-Slichter peak in NMR or µSR measurements just below the critical temperature of superconductors is taken to be strong evidence for conventional behaviour...

Van der Waals solids containing two-dimensional lattices of magnetic moments with only weak interlayer coupling have attracted significant scientific interest due to their...

Electron transfer (ET) processes in peptides and proteins are key steps in the functioning of several natural enzymes including DNA photolyase and ribonucleitide reductase,...

The increasing global demand for portable energy means that the search for new electrode materials for rechargeable solid-state batteries is an important scientific challenge....

R2RuO5 (R = Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb) are known to exhibit interesting physical properties. They all show magnetic ordering between 8 ¿ 24 K. They also show large Sommerfeld...

In the series R2PdSi3,the Nd compound is considered to be an anomalous as it orders ferromagnetically (TC= 16 K) with a weak frequency-dependent ac susceptibility (χ)...

After the discovery of multiband superconductivity in MgB2 (Tc = 39.7 K) a number of studies have been made to understand the origin of superconductivity in this compound as...

The first discovered heavy fermion superconductor CeCu2Si2 had been believed to have d-wave pairing symmetry for many years. However, recent experiments on CeCu2Si2 discovered...

All known iron-based superconductors comprise layers of FeAs or FeSe with some combination of group I, group II or lanthanide oxide layers, and usually some doping. To make...

The discovery of superconductivity in ThCr2Si2 type tetragonal Fe-based compounds (i.e. YFe2Ge2) have generated considerable interest. Recently we found bulk superconductivity...

This proposal describes an in situ muSR experiment on a hydrogen storage material, MgH2. This is because MgH2 attracts a special attention due to the fact that the hydrogen...

Recently, barlowite Cu4(OH)6FBr have been attracting much attention as a new kagome system with a Z2 topological order, which may yield spin liquid state at relative high...

Clays are porous materials and planned to be used as barrier material in radioactive waste repositories. In this context understanding of water and solute diffusion on different...

In this proposal we suggest an investigation of the time reversal symmetry breaking in the superconducting compounds YRuB2 and LuRuB2 with orthorhombic structure (space group...

Our uSR measurements on superconducting Y1-xErxNi2B2C shows a slowing of the Er spin dynamics upon cooling to 2.5 K, but the depolarisation rate does not critically diverge and...

Here we propose measurements on a unique, newly synthesized series of coordination polymers based on chains of Cu2+ ions. These have been designed with the intention of...

Ternary compounds R5T4X10 crystallizing in primitive tetragonal structure (space group P4/mbm) present interesting physical properties. Of particular interests are the...
