The first paper on a magnetic system, from our cold-neutron time-of-flight spectrometer PELICAN, has been accepted for publication by ChemComm. Ab-initio calculations and inelastic neutron scattering have been used to understand in detail the terbium-containing single-molecule magnet analogue in the family Na9[Ln(W5O18)2], in which Ln = lanthanide or rare earth. The work is a collaboration between the University of Melbourne, Monash University, RMIT and ANSTO.
