The silver ruthenium oxide AgRuO$_3$ consists of honeycomb [Ru$_2^{5+}$O$_6^{2-}$] layers, and can be considered an analogue of SrRu$_2$O$_6$ with a different intercalation stage. We present measurements of magnetic susceptibility and…

Successive phase transitions in a rare-earth monoaxial chiral magnet DyNi$_3$Ga$_{9}$ have been investigated by resonant x-ray diffraction. Magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole degrees of freedom arising from the large angular moment of…

The layered honeycomb magnet $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ has emerged as a promising candidate for realizing a Kitaev quantum spin liquid. Previous studies have reported oscillation-like anomalies in the longitudinal thermal conductivity and…

The material $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$, with a two-dimensional Ru-honeycomb sublattice, has attracted considerable attention because it may be a realization of the Kitaev quantum spin liquid (QSL). Recently, a new honeycomb material,…

The Fe(1+x)Sb compound has been synthesized close to stoichiometry with x = 0.023(8). The compound was investigated by 57Fe M\"ossbauer spectroscopy in the temperature range 4.2 - 300 K. The antiferromagnetic ordering temperature was found…

Honeycomb iridate Na2IrO3, a Jeff=1/2 magnet, is a potential platform for realizing the quantum spin liquid. Many experiments have shown that its magnetic ground state has a zigzag antiferromagnetic (AFM) order. However, there is still a…

In-plane and out-of-plane magnetoresistivities (MR) of antiferromagnetic YBa_2Cu_3O_6.25 single crystals were measured in magnetic fields H applied along the (ab) plane. In-plane MR is a superposition of two components: The first component…

We report a comprehensive investigation of the structural and magnetic properties of Na$_5$Yb(MoO$_4$)$_4$, a member of the stretched diamond magnetic lattice family. Neutron powder diffraction at 3.3~K confirms that the compound…

There have been constant efforts to find exotic quantum spin-liquid (QSL) materials. Some of the transition metal insulators dominated by the direction dependent anisotropic exchange interaction (Kitaev model for honeycomb network of…

Compounds based on the Fe2P structure have continued to attract interest because of the interplay between itinerant and localized magnetism in a non-centrosymmetric crystal structure, and because of the recent developments of these…
