This is a proposal to determine the magnetic structures of the Rb/NH3 and K/NH3 intercalates of FeSe. These compounds exhibit superconductivity when freshly prepared, but...

Quantum critically is a unifying theme across correlated electron physics. Classical or thermal phase transitions occur at nonzero temperature and are driven by thermal...

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials, the volume of a material abnormally contract with the increase of temperature, is closed related to the magnetovolume effect (MVE) in...

The aim of the proposed experiment is two-fold, firstly to perform a test experiment using recently designed WISH goniometer on a crystal with magnetic domains. We believe that...

CeRhIn5 shows the rich phase diagram with superconductivity, spin density wave and charge density wave. The appearance of the Fermi surface nesting inside the antiferromagnetic...

Ni-Mn based Heusler alloys are magnetic multifunctional materials currently under intense research efforts thanks to their unique coexistence of a reversible structural...

Quantum critically is a unifying theme across correlated electron physics. Classical or thermal phase transitions occur at nonzero temperature and are driven by thermal...

Hexaferrites are well known for their applications as permanent magnet and memory devices. In recent years, the interest in hexaferrite has grown from the point of view of...

Control of magnetism purely with electric field is a key goal of spintronics as it offers low power alternatives to current computer memory devices. The piezomagnetic effect...

Our recent inelastic neutron scattering (INS) study using MARI clearly reveals the presence of a sharp inelastic excitation near 8 meV and 11 meV in CeT2Al10 (T=Ru and Os)...

The spin Jahn-Teller effect stabilises 3D magnetic order in an otherwise frustrated system via magnetoelastic coupling, spontaneously at the magnetic phase transition. Examples...

These experiments are part of a much broader programme at the University of Reading. focused on the use of water-soluble half-acetylated chitosan as a mucoadhesive polymer,...

UN is a prominent “advanced nuclear fuel”, due to its high uranium density and good thermal conductivity. However, its dissolution in water is worse than that of UO2 and is...

Normally, magnetic materials at low temperature can be described in terms of magnetic order; a repeating pattern of magnetic moments which satisfy the internal interactions of...

We propose to investigate the highly one-dimensional (1D) S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet (NO)[Cu(NO3)3] which is a potential realization of the Nersesyan-Tsvelik model. The...

Our neutron study using MARI/MERLIN on Ce(Ru1-xFex) 2Al10 reveals very interesting magnetic excitations and a manuscript is ready to submit to PRB. In x=0 (TN=27 K) a...

In recent years there has been a large interest in geometrically frustrated magnetic systems, especially those with spins interacting on two-dimensional triangular lattices...

The modified pyrochlores AM2+M3+F6 (A alkali metal ion, M transition metal ion) are a class of highly frustrated materials that have a randomness associated with the positions...

Our objective is to determine how changes in symmetry affect the magnetic ground state of spin-1 magnets. Low-dimensional S=1 systems are believed to support rich phase diagrams...

This proposal is part of our research programme on novel quantum phases in frustrated lattices. Here we propose to determine the magnetic structure in a quasi-two-dimensional...
