Technical Description of the WMI Helium Pump
A vertical cross-section, a horizontal cross-section along the line A-B and a vertical cross-section of part of the pump systems is shown in the
The European Union has awarded €25 million to the SUPREME consortium, consisting of 23 European companies and research organisations, including WMI.
Over the past two decades, the helium price has been strongly increasing. The reason is a growing demand and a change in supply chains. Although helium prices were doubling from 2002 to 2012, both

We investigate the spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) at room temperature in thin-film heterostructures of antiferromagnetic insulating (0001)-oriented alpha-Fe2O3 (hematite) and Pt. We measure their
The ability to control the Gilbert damping which determines the lifetime of spin information is crucial for designing spintronic and magnonic devices. Thus, controlling the Gilbert damping parameter
Understanding the excitations of quantum materials is essential for unraveling how their microscopic constituents interact. Among these, particle-hole excitations form a particularly important class,

Antiferromagnetic materials promise improved performance for spintronic applications as they are robust against external magnetic field perturbations and allow for faster magnetization dynamics
The spin Hall effect in heavy-metal thin films is routinely used to convert charge currents into transverse spin currents and can be used to exert torque on adjacent ferromagnets. Conversely, the
Polarization- and temperature-dependent Raman data along with theoretical simulations are presented for the Kagome ferromagnet Fe3Sn2. Eight out of nine expected phonon modes are identified. The
In easy-plane antiferromagnets, the nature of the elementary excitations of the spin system is captured by the precession of the magnon pseudospin around its equilibrium pseudofield, manifesting

We extend the off-diagonal geometric phase [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 3067 (2000)] to mixed quantal states. The nodal structure of this phase in the qubit (two-level) case is compared with that of the

Pure spin currents represent the charge-less transport of angular momentum. Our present research is focused on the injection, transport, and detection of magnon-based angular momentum transport in
CRESST is one of the most prominent direct detection experiments for dark matter particles with sub-GeV/c2 mass. One of the advantages of the CRESST experiment is the possibility to include a large

CRESST is a leading direct detection sub-GeV dark matter experiment. During its second phase, cryogenic bolometers were used to detect nuclear recoils off the CaWO4 target crystal nuclei. The
