Quantum magnets with strong spin-orbit interaction probed via neutron and x-ray scattering

<p>This thesis presents details of x-ray and neutron scattering experiments used to probe quantum magnets with strong spin-orbit interaction. The first of these systems are the three-dimensional iridate compounds, in which the three-fold co-ordination of IrO<sub>6</sub> octahedra h...
