Novel skyrmionic spin textures in non-chiral magnets
Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected objects that exist in the spin texture of certain magnetic materials. We have shown that muon spin relaxation is a powerful... -
Cyclic Processes in Mid-Range SiGe Alloys
We propose longitudinal muon spin depolarization measurements to extract the energy for the T-site Mu acceptor level in mid-range SiGe alloys where a direct determination of the... -
Studies of magnetic polaron formation in EuS via RF-µSR
Experiment is proposed to identify magnetic polaron bound to the muon using RF-muSR. In recent experiment at TRIUMF magnetic polaron was found in transverse field and its... -
Muon spin rotation studies in Ni-Mn-Sn based metamagnetic shape memory alloys...
Ni2Mn1+pZ1-p (Z= In, Sn, Sb and < p 1) based ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMAs) with Heusler type structure are fascinating materials as far as the magneto-functional... -
Exploring local ion diffusion dynamics in hydrated LiRAPs by muSR
Many of the devices currently used for energy storage (e.g., batteries, solar cells) use liquid electrolytes that are known to pose a serious fire and safety risk. In recent... -
Muon spin relaxation study of biskyrmions in MnNiGa
Skyrmions are chiral spin textures that exist in a variety of magnetic materials. These states are topologically non-trivial, which gives them stability expected to be useful... -
The role of spin fluctuations, disorder and non-colinearity in the INVAR effect
The origin of the Invar effect, whereby certain ferromagnetic alloys exhibit near zero thermal expansion around room temperature is still not properly understood. Although the... -

Continued investigation of magnetic fluctuations in the Mn-doiped chalcopyrite semiconductor ZnGeP2 is proposed using LF-MuSR depolarization rates. Due to ferromagnetism above... -
Investigation of muonium diffusion, states and charge cycles in vanadium dioxide
We propose a study to characterize diffusive motion of muonium, charge cycles and Mu0 states in vanadium dioxide (VO2) using zero and longitudinal field muon spin depolarization... -
Exploring local ion diffusion dynamics in hydrated LiRAPs by muSR
Many of the devices currently used for energy storage (e.g., batteries, solar cells) use liquid electrolytes that are known to pose a serious fire and safety risk. In recent... -
In-operando diffusion measurements on an all-solid-state battery cell
We propose to use muons to probe the diffusion processes which occur within a battery anode during cycling in an all solid-state battery. Such solid-state battery configurations... -
Muon spin relaxation studies of KTCNQ and related compounds
Potassium tetracyanoquinodimenthane (KTCNQ) undergoes a spin-Peierls (SP) transition at 396K where a transformation from uniform to dimerised TCNQ- molecules in 1D columns... -
A Self-consistent Description of the Thermoelastic Properties of Dielectric P...
20 years ago, Anderson proposed that the thermoelastic properties of the dominant (mantle) phase within the Earth, MgSiO3 perovskite, could be described as a simple Debye solid.... -
Muonium Charge-State Transition Energies in Si-Ge Alloys
We propose longitudinal muon spin depolarization measurements for two additional samples of Si(1-x)Ge(x) alloys in order to complete our study of the dependence of Mu(-/0)...
