Inelastic neutron scattering of deep glassy ice VI
Water displays a highly complex phase diagram that is key to a range of critical processes. Using ISIS facilities, our group has discovered three new phases of ice and most... -
The structure of ammonia borane in ammonia and THF
In this proposal we aim to understand the solvation of AB by two of the most important solvents ? ammonia and THF. Neutron diffraction is a key technique in this context because... -
Spin Rotation Experiments at a Pulsed Muon Source using Broadband RF Pulses
In this proposal we wish to explore how the RF-MuSR technique might be developed for measurements akin to FT-NMR. Our work will focus on the broadband excitation of paramagnetic... -
Correlations between local magnetism and spin-orbit transport physics in topo...
One of the main challenges in spintronics research is to provide a link between magnetic elements and conventional electronic circuits. A novel approach to this old problem is... -
Critical and quantum critical spins fluctuations in URhGe
Ferromagnetism in URhGe is continuously suppressed with a magnetic field leading to a Quantum Critical Point (QCP) at around 12 T engulfed by a pocket of superconductivity. The... -
Structures and magnetism of layered cobalt oxide selenide tellurides
This proposal aims to exploit the high resolution of HRPD and OSIRIS to probe the structures of the solid solution Ba2CoO2Cu2(Te1-xSex)2. The compound Ba2CoO2Cu2Te2 shows... -
Magnetic ordering in the layered oxide arsenides Sr2CrO2Fe2As2 and Sr2CrO2Co2As2
This proposal is to probe the structure and magnetic ordering in Sr2CrO2Fe2As2 and Sr2CrO2Co2As2, in order to complete a description of trends in the Cr sublattice magnetic... -

The proposal develops recent observations on spin-lattice coupling in incommensurate materials (objective - measure influence of applied field on evolution of structural... -
Determination of the magnetic structure in the coupled trimer spin system Ba4...
When isolated spin clusters are weakly coupled to each other, zero-dimensional quantum and three-dimensional collective magnetism concomitantly occur. This is envisioned in the... -
Magnetic structure below the metal-insulator transition of Pb2CaOsO6
This proposal is part of a project in which we explore the unusual physics of 5d transition metal oxides. Using a special high pressure technique, we have synthesised first... -
Texture memory and variant selection for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys
The proposed experiment will focus on determining the level of texture memory and variant selection on both heating and cooling for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys with... -
Oxygen Positional Disorder in the "Empty" Tetragonal Tungsten Bronze Ba4La0.6...
Ferroelectric tetragonal tungsten bronze oxides (TTBs) have been extensively studied for their application dielectric and non-linear optical devices. TTBs often exhibit... -
Commensurate to incommensurate transition in triangular antiferromagnet PdCrO...
We propose to study an effect of uniaxial pressure on a magnetic structure of triangular antiferromagnet PdCrO2. The experiment will mark a technical milestone in development of... -

Correlation between crystalline and magnetic structures, and polarization in ...
TbMnO3 attracts special attention due to its large magnetoelectric coupling, polarization flop and ferro-paramagnetic phase transition, both induced by magnetic field. Despite... -
Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -
Characterisation of Spin density Wave phase in Na2Ti2(Sb,As)2O
The formation of charge and spin density wave (CDW and SDW) states in metallic systems isdriven by Fermi surface instabilities that are often found to compete with... -
Pair distribution function analysis of stacking disorder in ice
Very recently, the metastable cubic ice phase was renamed to stacking-disordered ice (ice Isd) in order to emphasise the fact that this form of ice contains not only cubic... -
Magnetic Excitations in an Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Kagome Lattice Antiferrom...
The material Cu(1,3-benzenedicarboxylate) (C8H4CuO4) features structurally perfect kagome lattice planes of spin-1/2 copper2+ ions, with the separated by organic linkers. High... -
Neutron Powder Diffraction Experiments on Ternary Alkali Metal Palladium and ...
Na2PdC2 and Na2PtC2 are the first examples of ternary alkali metal transition metal acetylides. They were synthesized and structurally characterised by our group in 2001 based...
