In condensed matter physics, the search for new exotic quantum ground states has become a central theme over the past few years. Among the 3D quantum spin liquid candidates, the...

We propose to carry out an inelastic neutron scattering experiment at LET to investigate the excitations in the quantum spin ice Yb2Ti2O7. In contrast to other single crystal...

SrRuO3 is particularly interesting as it is the only simple Ruthenate that exhibits ferromagnetic order at ambient conditions, which still is a rare phenomenon in the broader...

The pyrochlores provide an excellent model system for studying the interaction of framework vibrational modes, defects and magnetism. We propose to investigate these couplings...

In quantum analogues of the spin ice materials quantum mechanical tunneling between ground states is expected, and exotic emergent behaviour has been predicted including a Higgs...

We propose to carry out a muSR study of the spin dynamics in two single crystal samples of Yb2Ti2O7. Both samples are notionally stoichiometric but they have been prepared using...

Magnetic frustration occurs when nearest-neighbor competing interactions cannot be simultaneously satisfied. Pyrochlores, whose crystalline lattices form corner-sharing...

We have recently carried out an inelastic neutron scattering experiment at LET in order to investigate the excitations in the quantum spin ice Yb2Ti2O7. The single crystal...
