Zeolites are microporous materials that are used as heterogeneous acid catalysts in reactions. It is important to study reactive intermediates in zeolites in order to understand...

The main purpose of this investigation is to discern the localized and itinerant contributions in the ferromagnertic superconductor UIr.Field dependent MuSR measurments up to...

Small-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) are of long standing interest to both magnetism and heterogeneous catalysis. Recent µSR studies of bare Au NPs encapsulated in mesoporous...

We propose a set of RF measurements on Silicon Carbide (polytype 6H) to identify and characterize the muonium species present below room temperature. One of the main goals of...

The most important scientific problem to solve for our modern society is how to convert and store clean energy. We are currently on the verge for a general breakthrough in...

We propose a series of measurements to complete the previous direct spectroscopic measurements of the Muonium defect energy levels in Silicon Carbide (SiC; RB110134). We will...

A grand challenge facing society today is the need to develop green energy technologies. For instance, as we increase our use of renewable energy sources to cut our consumption...

Quantum spin liquids (QSL) are the materials, which does not show any magnetic ordering down to the absolute zero temperature. In our project we are trying to explore the fact...

Many room temperature ionic liquids (salts with melting points near room temperature that hereafter will be referred to as ionic liquids) are ¿green solvents¿ for chemical...

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...

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...

Hydrogen abstraction reactions are key steps in free radical mechanisms that dominate the combustion and atmospheric chemistry of the alkane hydrocarbons and, as such, merit...

Recently there has been an M(TCNQ)2, where M=Mn, Co, Fe and Ni, series synthesised where all samples formed a stochiometric glassy ferromagnetic salt. We have focused on the...

Silicon is currently the base of all modern electronics and advanced computing. One route to future advanced computing called spintronics exploits the energy saving and quantum...

Hydrogen abstraction reactions are key steps in free radical mechanisms that dominate the combustion and atmospheric chemistry of the alkane hydrocarbons and, as such, merit...

Radio Frequency µSR provides a direct method for accurately determining muon hyperfine coupling constants, Aµ, for muoniated radical species. The method complements the well...

The investigation of electron correlations in intermetallic alloys is fascinating. At times, depending on the nature and strength of correlations, the compounds exhibit...

An important element of the work associated with the current Framework Programme 7 Joint Research Activity (JRA) for muons is the development of gas sample pressure cells...

With increasing demands for high performance/capacity rechargeable batteries the materials science community is currently facing two severe issues. First of all there is from a...

It is proposed to use TF muSR to study the low temperature, low field part of the phase diagram of Ba3CuSb2O9, a system with a uniform triangular lattice of S=1/2 Cu ions that...
