Study of multiple magnetic ordering transitions in Ce3Ir4Sn13 using µSR
The cubic compound Ce3Ir4Sn13 shows complex step-like magnetic ordering at 2.1K and 0.6K in the heat capacity (also at 2.18K) and Hall effect. The 2.1K transition is furthermore... -
High Temperature Spin Transition in LaCoO3
We aim to continue our investigation of the high temperature magnetic interactions in LaCoO3. Our previous experiment has confirmed magnetic susceptibility data, with a change... -

Recent progress in the field of molecular magnetism has shown the clear potential for gaining control over the structural building blocks of molecular materials in order to... -
Two Gap Superconductivity of ZrB12
ZrB12 is a cluster boride compound which is superconducting at 6K although the source of the pairing interaction appears to come from the Zr ions with the boron acting as a... -
A µSR study of the charge density wave superconductor CuxTiSe2.
Superconductivity and the charge density wave (CDW) are two very different cooperative electronic phenomena. However, both occur because of Fermi surface instabilities and... -
Superconducting state arising out of a Topological Crystalline Insulator
A new class of materials called Topological Crystalline Insulator(TCI) has been recently proposedtheoretically and subsequently, SnTe has been discovered to exhibit all the... -
