CRG - Cold neutron time-focussing time-of-flight spectrometer

Resistance is fragmented: how magnets defy disorder

- Quantum materials,Magnetism,Scientific news,IN5,SHARPER,PANTHER,France,Switzerland,United Kingdom

Some magnetic materials feature peculiar states the fundamental understanding of which may pave the way for future applications. Neutron experiments have just revealed that they can be unexpectedly stable with respect to microscopic disorder.

Exotic observations at the ILL
