Magnetic structure of Ce2Ni12As7 using neutron diffraction
The aim of the experiment is to characterize the magnetic structure of the compound Ce2Ni12As7 using neutron diffraction. At low temperatures the magnetic moments of the cerium... -
Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -
Spin orders in CaxMn2-xFeReO6 double perovskites
New manganese-based double perovskites Mn2-xCaxFeReO6 have been synthesised at high pressure. Mn2FeReO6 has spin-active cations at all sites; S = 5/2 Mn2+, S = 5/2 Fe3+ and S =... -
Spin-Driven Multiferroics CdMn7O12 and SrMn7O12
We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments on powder samples of possible spin-induced multiferroic materials, 114CdMn7O12 and SrMn7O12, at ambient pressure and low... -
Magnetic ordering and crystal electric fields studies in the new cerium compo...
The compound CeRh2Al10 is a new member of the 1:2:10 stoichiometry series. Previously the three well-studied compounds CeT2Al10 (T=Fe, Ru, Os) were showed to be the first Kondo... -
Ferroelectric-antiferroelectric phase transformation behaviour in bismuth-mod...
The proposed experiment involves measurement of the structural changes during the ferroelectric rhombohedral to antiferroelectric orthorhombic phase transformation in PZT... -
