Fulleride superconductivity is experiencing a renaissance of interest following our recent discovery of superconductivity proximate to an antiferromagnetic Mott insulating state...

We can trace the history of electrochemical cells just over two hundred years back to Luigi Galvani and Alessandro Volta¿s inventions, and perhaps more than a millennium further...

Recently a handful of non-centrosymmetric Ce-based HF compounds with general formula CeTX3 (T=transition mental and X=Si or Ge) have been reported to exhibit superconductivity...

Recently the coexistence of superconductivity (SC) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering has been reported in CeNi0.8Bi2 with TSC = 4.2 K and TN =5 K, which crystallises in the...

k-ET_2Cu_2(CN)_3 provides an excellent experimental system for studying the 2D S=1/2 frustrated triangular lattice Heisenberg model. A spin-liquid state persists in this system...

Among the rare earth titanates and stannates cristallising in the pyrochlore crystal structure, Tb2Ti2O7 is a singular system since its ground state is believed to be a spin...

Pyrochlore magnets of formula R2Ti2O7 or R2Sn2O7 constitute the paradigm for geometrical frustration on a 3D lattice. Spinel compounds CdR2X4, where the R sublattice forms a...

The great majority of known muonium defect centres and muonium substituted organic radicals have essentially spin-only magnetism, with few exhibiting any noticeable departure...

In order to estimate a reliable reaction area (a_r) between cathode and liquid electrolyte in a Li-ion battery, we wish to propose a muSR experiment on a charged-state cathode...

Mn have been found to be an interesting ion to be used as dopant in Lithium Niobate (LiNbO3) crystals in order to enhance their photorefractive properties. These materials are...

Recently we have investigated the cubic compound PrRhSn3 using the dc and ac susceptibilities and the heat capacity. We found an evidence for the cluster-glass behavior with a...

We plan to study by means of zero and longitudinal field muSR the static and dynamic magnetic properties of SrZnVO(PO4)2, a prototype of the S=1/2 J1-J2 model on a square...

The new compound Li3Mg2RuO6 exhibits interesting structural and magnetic properties. The Ru5+ sublattice is intrinsically frustrated : chains, along various [110] directions, of...

Dy2Ti2O7 is a pyrochlore antiferromagnet that has a partial magnetization plateau between 0.1 and 0.9T for magnetic fields applied along the [111] direction. This represents a...

We plan to perform transverse field and zero-field μSR experiments to investigate the temperature dependence of the relaxation rate in the superconducting phase of...

We have recently synthesised the novel iridocuprate IrSr2Sm1.15Ce0.85Cu2O10. This material exhibits a complex temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility with multiple...

In strongly correlated electron systems, the proximity to magnetic ordering has been of special interest. Magnetism in this class of systems is often suppressed by the Kondo...

Previous studies have pointed to a heavy-electron state in CePtSi with a strongly enhanced electronic specific heat. We have explored the heat capacity, susceptibility and...

In strongly correlated electron systems, the proximity to magnetic ordering has been of special interest. Magnetism in this class of systems is often suppressed by the Kondo...

We propose muSR studies on superfluid density in the overdoped La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO). The Hayden group (Bristol) has been growing high-quality LSCO single crystals, and performed...
