Methane hydrate formation in the presence of clay minerals
We will study the formation of methane hydrates in situ in the presence of swelling clays. The aim is to understand and control heterogeneous hydrate nucleation at this... -
Time reversal symmetry breaking superconductivity in partially filled skutter...
The unconventional filled skutterudite superconductor, PrPt4Ge12 (Tc~7.9K), was recently discovered, for wihch zero field muon spin relaxation (ZF-MuSR) experiments reveal that... -
High pressure behaviour of sulfuric acid tetrahydrate
Our previous work on sulfuric acid tetrahydrate (SAT) identified a monoclinic high-pressure polymorph, which forms at 5.35 kbar when the tetragonal low-pressure phase is warmed... -
Broken time reversal symmetry in the superconducting state in Lu5M6Sn18 (M = ...
High quality single crystals Lu5M6Sn18 (M = Co, Rh, and Ir) have been successfully growth by flux method. These caged type compound reveal superconductivity below Tc = 1.5 K, 4... -
Time reversal symmetry breaking superconductivity in (Pr,La)Pt4Ge12
The unconventional filled skutterudite superconductor, PrPt4Ge12(Tc ~ 7.9 K), was recently discovered, for which zero field muon spin relaxation (ZF-MuSR) experiments reveal... -
Spin dynamics and magnetism in CeRh6(Ge1-xSix)4
In Ce-based heavy fermion materials, there is competition between the interactions which lead to a magnetically ordered arrangement of the Ce magnetic moments, and the... -
Multiscale time-resolving study of crystallisation in polyethyleneoxide
We will exploit the powerful and unique capability of NIMROD to follow in a time-resolving manner the crystallisation of polyethyleneoxide (PEO). There are three key length... -
Partial freezing of a Kagome Magnet
Ever since the first published consideration of the ground state of a triangular lattice of Ising spins by PW Andersen in the 50's, the pursuit of materials with geometrically...
