The beneficiaries of the EU Horizon-funded “Flexibility in Research Infrastructures for global CArbon Neutrality” (FlexRICAN) project inaugurated its launch during a kick-off meeting held on March 11-12, 2024 at the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund, Sweden. The 3-year FlexRICAN project, coordinated by ESS, has the ambitious goal [...]
© EMFL. During the User Meeting in Nottingham, Elena Blundo received the EMFL prize 2024. Jochen Wosnitza, chair of the EMFL prize committee, had the honor of presenting the prize in a traditional small prize ceremony. The EMFL prize was established in 2009 and recognizes outstanding achievements related to [...]
© EMFL. The EMFL User Meeting 2024 took place at the University of Nottingham on 11 June; after 2017, the second time at this place. The EMFL Board of Directors has chosen this venue to underline the continuing collaboration of the UK community with EMFL, through grant agreements between EPSRC [...]
Alex Eaton, University of Cambridge, UK and Yurii Skourski, HLD. Scientists from the UK, USA, Czech Republic, and Germany have studied the Fermi surface of the heavy-fermion superconductor UTe2. This material is of particular interest given its high likelihood of hosting a spin-triplet Cooper-pairing mechanism. Evidence for this stems primarily [...]
Tristan Thebault, William Knafo, LNCMI Toulouse, Daniel Braithwaite, Gérard Lapertot, Georg Knebel, CEA-Grenoble, and Dai Aoki, Tohoku University. The interplay between magnetism and unconventional superconductivity in UTe2 was extensively studied in the past few years. Multiple superconducting phases were found to be induced near to a metamagnetic transition under magnetic [...]
Y. Tokunaga, Japan Atomic Energy Agency, Tokai, Japan, M. Horvatić and Steffen Krämer, LNCMI Grenoble. The uranium-based superconductor UTe2 provides an attractive platform for studying the novel physics of spin-triplet and topological superconductivity in bulk materials. Resistivity measurements performed in 2019 at LNCMI, both in continuous and pulsed fields, revealed that [...]
Maurice Bal, HFML Nijmegen. Since its discovery in 1980 by von Klitzing et al., the quantum Hall effect (QHE) has been measured in many different 2D systems, mainly at cryogenic temperatures. Currently, graphene is the only material that displays the QHE at room temperature (RT). Considering that the robustness of [...]

We cordially invite you to celebrate the 30th International Conference on Low Temperature Physics (LT30) from 7 to 13 August 2025 in Bilbao. Bilbao is an outstanding venue, well-connected with a modern local transportation system and services that include a world-renowned cuisine and natural environment. The meeting will take [...]
A new transformer, financed by FEDER funds from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region and the CNRS, has been installed on the CNRS campus in Grenoble. The Laboratoire National des Champs Magnétiques Intenses, one of the major research infrastructure of the CNRS, is now directly connected to the 225,000 V high voltage grid [...]
