We propose to solve the long standing controversy regarding the magnetic state of off-stoichiometric Heusler alloys Ni2Mn1.4In0.6 and Ni1.8Co0.2Mn1.4In0.6 at temperatures below...

The crystal unit cell of mayenite, 12CaO.7Al2O3, consists of a cubic lattice of [Ca24Al28O64]4+ with the remaining 2*O2- contained in cages, which are linked by channels within...

ScF3 is a material with the ReO3 structure which shows negative thermal expansion. This experiment will use implanted muons to create an F-mu-F state in this structure and then...

LaCoO3 and A-site Sr doped LaCoO3 have been an intense research area in recent days due to their complex magnetic phase diagram and another additional degree of freedom,...

The aim of the proposed experiment is to determine the temperature dependence of the ordered magnetic structures of LaMnSbO and NdMnSbO. These oxy-antimonides are related to the...
