High brightness neutron source optimized for very high pulsed magnetic field experiments

Conducting neutron scattering experiments in the presence of high pulsed magnetic fields, namely above 40 T, provides valuable information about the magnetic structures of materials. However, these experiments are challenging and time-consuming because the ...

Magnetic structure and magnetoelectric properties of the spin-flop phase in LiFePO4

Ellen Fogh, Sofie Janas, Paola Caterina Forino

We investigate the magnetic structure and magnetoelectric(ME) effect in the high -field phase of the antiferromagnet LiFePO 4 above the critical field of 31 T. A neutron diffraction study in pulsed magnetic fields reveals the propagation vector to be q = 0 ...

Anomalous Hall effect and magnetic structure of the topological semimetal (Mn0.78Fe0.22)3Ge

Jian Rui Soh, Jan Persson

Me3+8Ge, being a Weyl semimetal, shows a large anomalous Hall effect (AHE), which decreases slowly with an increase in 8 from 0.1 to 0.4. However, AHE in this compound remains significantly large in the whole range of 8 because of the robust nature of the ...

Real space and reciprocal space investigations of the spin dynamics in skyrmion-hosting materials

Le Yu

Magnetic skyrmions are whirl-like spin configurations with particle-like properties protected by non-trivial topology. Due to their unique spin structures and dynamical properties, they have attracted tremendous interests over the past decade, from fundame ...

Effect of Co-Substitution on Hydrogen Absorption and Desorption Reactions of YMgNi4-Based Alloys

Andreas Züttel, Loris Giovanni Lombardo, Wen Luo, Heena Yang

YMgNi4-based alloys exhibit reversible hydrogen absorption and desorption reactions at near room temperature. Here, we report that Co-substituted YMgNi4-based alloys exhibited higher hydrogen contents and lower hydrogen absorption and desorption reaction p ...

Bragg edge tomography characterization of additively manufactured 316L steel

Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Nikola Kalentics, Markus Strobl, Efthymios Polatidis

In this work we perform a neutron Bragg edge tomography of stainless steel 316L additive manufacturing samples, one as built via standard laser powder bed fusion, and one using the novel three-dimensional (3D) laser shock peening technique. First, we consi ...
