The Shastry-Sutherland lattice (SSL) can be described as a 2D square lattice built up from a network of dimers disposed orthogonally and has been observed in SrCu2(BO2)3....

We propose to develop and carry out a novel in situ SR/electrochemical technique to identify the mechanism underlying ferromagnetism in palladium bionanoparticles. We...

This proposal aims to characterise the spin dynamics of three Pr-based pyrochlores that may be realisations of quantum spin ice materials. The lower moment and larger wave...

This experiment is focused on exploring and harnessing magnetic ground state of the multiferroic materials, with particular emphasis on the hexagonal (h), rare-earth ferrites...

Properties of graphene that make it an important material are its exceptionally high conductivity, massless fermions and a high velocity of electrons near the Dirac points....

We have performed further measurements on Dy2Ti2O7 and confirmed the observation of magnetic charge transport. Given the time constraints of our previous experiment not all...

In a recent series of successful experiments at PSI and ISIS we were able to demonstrate the possibility of measuring the rate of transfer of a small molecule (allyl alcohol)...

U2Pt2Sn crystallizes in the tetragonal Zr3Al2-type structure (P42/mnm, Z = 4), where uranium atoms occupy two different sites. Our measurements of bulk properties have shown...

We have recently performed zero field muon spin rotation (muSR) studies of one the shape memory alloy Ni2.04Mn1.4Sn0.56 on EMU spectrometer at ISIS and the observed results are...

Multiferroic systems have been a long-lasting and productive research field of condensed matter physics in both fundamental and applied perspectives. Useful multiferroic systems...

Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs) are molecules that display slow relaxation of their magnetisation. We have designed a new class of mononuclear lanthanide SMMs, where the...

A 19-electron organometallic radical was produced by the reaction of muonium with ferrocene and characterized by avoided level crossing muon spin resonance (ALC-muSR) and...

The spin relaxation rates of free radicals in solution can provide valuable information about the dynamics of molecular tumbling in solution, and solvent-radical interactions....

Single-Molecular Magnets (SMMs) provide access to the mesoscopic world. They possess slow magnetization relaxation due to an energy barrier induced by axial magnetic anisotropy,...

The origin of a mysterious pseudogap region in high-Tc superconductors is a challenging issue. It was proposed that the pseudogap is caused by a circulating-current order...

This study involves attempting to understand the Li atom diffusion within Li-intercalated hexagonal boron nitride. Muons present a significant advantage as they are sensitive to...

The kappa structural phase of BEDT-TTF salts incorporating various anions X provides an extremely interesting series of layered-structure strongly-correlated materials, whose...

We plan to measure the electric field distribution in epoxy resin based dielectrics close to breakdown using muons to detect the free charge carriers that may contribute to...

The physics across the phase transitions in solids has been of topical interest in the condensed matter physics. For example, liquid and vapor coexist along the vapor pressure...

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...
