YbNiSn is a Yb analogue of ferromagnetic superconductors URhGe and UCoGe. All materials share the same crystal structure, have similar Curie temperatures and a similar...

Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3...

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...

We recently observed a resonant spin excitation in Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2, one of the newly discovered iron arsenide superconductors with Tc=38K, on MERLIN. This demonstrates that the...

The triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet is the classic example of the frustrated magnet, here the ground state forms a non-collinear 120° structure. A number of different...

ZnCr2Se4 is a magnetically frustrated spinel compound with an incommensurate ground state. At low temperatures it displays a spin spiral structure propagating along the (100)...

The bilayer ruthenate Sr3Ru2O7 is the first material found to have a quantum critical end-point and is believed to display ¿nematic electronic order¿. We have previously studied...

The spinel GeCo2O4 is a promising compound to establish the consequences of geometrical frustration, as the magnetic Co2+ ions are on a network of corner-sharing tetrahedra...

SrCo2V2O8 is a quasi-1D, S-1/2 antiferromagnet with XXZ anisotropy. Weak interchains coupling result in long-range magnetic order at a finite temperature TN. A spinon continuum...

The Heusler alloys Ni-Mn-Ga are widely considered as a new generation of multifunctional smart materials due to the mutual interplay between structural and magnetic properties...

In SrEr2O4 the magnetic Er ions are linked through a network of triangles and hexagons, where geometrical frustration can arise, provided that some exchange interactions are...

The organic-inorganic perovskites with chemical formula CH3NH3PbB(Br,Cl,I)3 have been implicated as being efficient photovoltaic materials. Theoretical calculations and...

During recent years, the study of T=0 quantum phase transitions (QPT), the emergent scaling properties and their profound influence on physical properties at T>0 has...

As far as we know there is no single crystal neutron study on ErPr_2Si_2 yet, mainly due to fabrication difficulties. We have grown large (diameter: 6 mm; length: 8 mm) single...

Both a natural mineral and quantum magnet, azurite is a candidate model of the so-called Distorted Diamond Chain system. Such a system should theoretically exhibit spin-1/3...

Recent high resolution spectroscopy has found countable and discrete excitations in the two dimensional magnet CaFe2O4. This work aims to track these excitations to higher...

Interesting behaviour in Heisenberg spin systems originates from networks of triangles or tetrahedra, where spins interact via antiferromagnetic interactions. In 3D there are...

The proposal requests time on OSIRIS to measure the low-energy magnetic fluctuations in CeRhSi3. This compound is a noncentrosymmetric superconductor under pressures of ~10...

Given the challenges in providing efficient and non-harmful refrigeration, it is timely to study barocaloric systems, which offer cooling power via the application of pressure,...

Pr2Hf2O7 is a potential quantum spin ice compound. Compared to the classical spin ice ions Ho3+ and Dy3+, Pr3+ has weaker Ising anisotropy and significant XY terms leading to...
