The proposal is to measure the low-energy spin dynamics of the ferromagnetic superconductor UGe2 at the pressure which maximizes superconducting transition temperature and at...

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...

YbNiSn is an Ising ferromagnet with non-colinear spins that undergoes a first order magnetic transition in low magnetic field (0.9 T). The transition is associated with strong...

Geometrically frustrated spin systems have been studied extensively for decades because of many intriguing phenomena, exemplified by the non-magnetic quantum disordered states....

This proposal addresses the formation of a metamagnetic phase transition in PrPtAl. PrPtAl exhibits induced moment magnetism where singlet-mixing is stabilised by inter-site...

Recent experiments on SANS2D have indicated that small colloidal particles can act as macroions that screen the charged interactions of larger particles. This can cause changes...

We propose to conduct a high resolution neutron inelastic scattering study of the ferromagnetic superconductor UCoGe. Initial polarised results obtained at 4F1 (Saclay) are...

Organic ferroelectric compounds such as KH2PO4 and squaric acid, have attracted much interest in the past due to their potential in applications [1]. This interest has been...

A strong Q-dependence of the magnetic response at characteristic energy of EK~kBTK (TK is a Kondo temperature) has been observed in recent inelastic neutron scattering studies...

Pyrochlore compounds are considered to have an ideal crystal structure for 3D geometrical frustration, resulting in novel ground states. Spin ice, is one of the most striking...

With fantastic flux gains over its liquid conterpart, a solid methane moderator is essential to the newly built Second Target Station at ISIS. Unfortunately, it is notoriously...

Transition metal hydrides are critically involved in many stoichiometric and catalytic organometallic reactions, such as hydrogenation. In these reactions a crucial step is the...

We propose to study the newly synthesized compound Cu3Bi(SeO3)2O2Cl, related to the mineral francisite, using neutron diffraction for the first time. This compound is a new...

This proposal addresses the formation of a metamagnetic phase transition in PrPtAl. PrPtAl exhibits induced moment magnetism where singlet-mixing is stabilised by inter-site...

LixCoO2 is used extensively in portable batteries in laptops and mobile phones, but the scarcity of Li means that alternative materials are required. Structurally related...

Magnetically modulated structures have been predicted to form close to quantum critical points in a number of recent theories, although there are no experimental examples of...

The proposal requests time to measure the low-energy excitations in CaFe2O4 as a function of temperature. Previous experiments have observed a series of in-gap states at high...

In SrEr2O4 the magnetic Er ions are linked through a network of triangles and hexagons, where geometrical frustration can arise, provided that some exchange interactions are...

This proposal aims to investigate multiferroic properties in a new class of materials, a blend between organic and inorganic chemistry, called metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)....
