[Investigation of superconductivity and magnetism in d and f-electron materials]

Emphasis has been on high {Tc} cuprate susperconductors, along with some experiments on heavy fermion materials. Approach involved the preparation of novel materials, including high {Tc} oxide and rare earth and uranium intermetallic compounds in polycrystals and single crystals, and the investigation of transport, thermal, and magnetic properties of these materials down to 50 mK, in magnetic fields up to 10 tesla, and pressures up to 160 kbar. Other measurements, such as neutron scattering, {mu}SR, and photoemission, are carried out at national facilities
