Probing the interplay between charge density wave and superconductivity in st...
We propose to study PdxIrTe2, which evolves from a charge-orbital density wave state to a superconducting state with doping. It has a similar structural motif, doping-dependent... -
Non-equilibrium effects in the skyrmion material Co8Zn8Mn4
Skyrmions are topologically protected, vortex-like nano-sized objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials. As we have recently... -
Tuning the skyrmion lattice phase by Mn doping in the Co-Zn-Mn series
Magnetic skyrmions are vortex-like objects characterised by an integer topological winding number. They have been observed in the spin structures of several magnetic materials... -
Probing the glass transition in polymers using LF muSR
Nearly all polymers form glasses and the glass transition at temperature Tg dominates many physical properties of polymers that are relevant for their applications. The most... -
Magnetic ordering in AgFBF4 a nearly perfect 1D AFM with huge intra-chain c...
We propose to investigate AgFBF4, a compound known for > 20 years, with muon spectroscopy. The scope is to determine the 3D ordering temperature as well as estimate the value... -

Magnetic properties of graphene
Magnetic properties of graphitic compounds are of current interest for both theoretical and experimental research in the fields of condensed matter physics and magnetism. In the... -
Skyrmion phase dynamics in the beta-Mn-type system Co8Zn8Mn4
Skyrmions are topological objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials. As we have recently demonstrated in our transverse field...
