Probing spin liquids with a new pulsed-magnet system

Probing spin liquids with a new pulsed-magnet system: "Entirely new experimental vistas could be opened by a device called a precursor pulsed-magnet system developed by an international team of scientists. This system can generate magnetic fields as high as 30 Tesla for synchrotron x-ray scattering experiments. The researchers recently completed the first practical work using the system at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory to study magnetoelastic effects in the rare-earth pyrochlore terbium titanate (Tb2Ti2O7)."
