How does a catalyst promoter affect the degree of hydrogen retention of iron-...
We have recently used INS to determine how a hydrogen pre-treatment stage of an iron based Fischer-Tropsch catalyst may modify catalytic performance. That work established how... -
Spin and orbital fluctuations in MgV2O4
We propose to the measure the spin and orbital fluctuations associated with Vanadium in MgV2O4 using the MAPS direct geometry chopper spectrometer. This proposal will use the... -
Inelastic Spectroscopy of the Mobile Phase of Ammonia Borane
Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. There has recently been work on a more mobile phase of AB (denoted AB*) which is formed (via the... -

Evolve of the Spin Waves in Rb0.8Fe1.6Se2 at High Temperature
The newly discovered AxFe2-ySe2 (A=K,Rb,Cs) compounds have attracted great interests because of their parent compounds are insulators instead of being metallic [2-6].... -

Soft Modes in the Ferroelectric Semiconductor SbSI
Antimony sulfo-iodide (SbSI) exhibits strongly-coupled photoconductive, semiconducting, and ferroelectric properties. Until the discovery of the lead-oxide ferroelectric relaxor... -
Probing the electronic structure of uranium(IV) compounds by Inelastic Neutro...
An understanding of the electronic structure of the actinide elements is one of the most intriguing and complex topics in contemporary chemistry. In particular the magnetic... -
Magnon dispersion in the polar ferrimagnet BaCaFe4O7
Polar or non-centrosymmetric ferri(-o)magnets offer a plethora of potential technological devices;the inherent magnetoelectric effect can underpin both pyroelectric or... -
Doping Dependence of the Resonant Spin Excitation in Ba1-xKxFe2As2
We recently observed a resonant spin excitation in Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2, one of the newly discovered iron arsenide superconductors with Tc=38K, on MERLIN. This demonstrates that the... -
Inelastic neutron scattering study on the one dimensional magnetic systems Ba...
Most of the one dimensional spin chain compounds are antiferromagnetic with a rich magnetic phase diagram due to the magnetic frustration. We have synthesized Ba3CrS5 and... -
Spin dynamics in FeSi
At low temperatures FeSi is a non-magnetic insulator, but becomes a metallic paramagnet for T > 300K. It has been proposed to be a Kondo insulator in which local electron... -

Electronic state of Co3+ in LaCoO3
We will search for spin-orbit transitions of the Co3+ ions in LaCoO3. The ground state is a non-magnetic singlet, but there continues to be a debate about the nature of the... -
Spin excitations in LiFeAs, a stoichiometric ferropnictide superconductor at ...
We propose to measure the powder-averaged spin excitation spectrum of LiFeAs, a new member of the ferropnictide family of superconductors. This compound is special because it is... -
1D Spin-1/2 Chain Dispersion of Magnetoelectric CuO
We propose to measure the high energy magnetic dispersion of CuO. At high energies, CuO exhibits quasi-1D spin-1/2 chain magnetic behaviour. Our previous studies have revealed... -
Crystalline electric field levels in a rare-earth triangular-lattice antiferr...
The rare-earth frustrated magnets with dipole-octupole doublet trigger intense research interests due to their exotic quantum phases including spin fragmentation. The newly... -
Intra-block magnetic excitations in KFe0.8Ag1.2Te2
KFe0.8Ag1.2Te2 is made of 2x2 squares of Fe atoms, upon lowering temperature the system spontaneously undergoes a transition that breaks the fourfold rotational symmetry. A...
