High-Energy dynamics and search for a continuum in CaFe2O4
We propose to investigate the high-energy (above 10 meV) excitations using either the MERLIN or MAPS chopper instruments. CaFe2O4 is interesting for several reasons. First, it... -
Search for magnetic domains in frustrated magnet CaFe2O4
We propose to study the temperature dependence of the size and shape of the magnetic domains believed to exist in CaFe2O4 - a frustrated triangular antiferromagnet. Our diffuse... -

We have recently discovered a new family of geometric frustrated magnets starting from the parent system, RbFe2F6, with crystallizes in the defect or β-pyrochlore structure... -
Spin excitations in RbFe2F6 ¿ A possible S=5/2 Kagome lattice?
We propose to investigate the spin fluctuations in a candidate S=5/2 Kagome lattice. Previous neutron diffraction has found that RbFe2F6 maybe a good realization of a Kagome... -
Solution structures of the immunologically important proteins IgA, IgG and C3
Abnormally glycosylated IgA leads to IgA nephropathy, the most common cause of renal failure. IgG antibody represents one-third of new drugs currently in development, and its... -
Magnetic Excitations in Low-dimensional Antiferromagnet KFe2Se3
The proposal aims to measure the powder averaged magnetic excitations in KFe2Se3. The compound is related to the recently discovered Fe-Se,As superconductors and is based upon... -
