Understanding the exhumation history of the gneissic domes in continental collision zones is vital for deciphering the orogen’s geodynamic evolution. This study uses the zircon and apatite fission track (ZFT and AFT) dataset and thermokinematic modeling constraints to understand the tectonic evolution of the Tso-Morari crystalline (TMC) dome exposed in Ladakh, NW India.

In the beginning, neutron instrument simulation software was mainly used to optimize instrument designs in terms of high flux and favorable beam properties at the sample position. Then it was extended to virtual experiments by adding sample and detector in the simulation. [...]

We present a comprehensive microscopic insight into the spin configurations within the bond-frustrated cubicspinel compound MnCr2S4 directly unveiled through extensive single-crystal neutron diffraction studies carriedout in zero magnetic field and in fields up to 35 T. While our zero field results confirm the ferrimagnetic structurewith an antiparallel arrangement of the magnetic Cr3+ and Mn2+ sublattices below TFiM ≈ 65 K, as well as thepresence of the exotic Yafet-Kittel phase below TYK ≈ 5 K, our data measured in fields enable us to preciselydetermine the field-induced magnetic structures and their evolution across the phase transitions at μ0H1 ≈ 11 Tand μ0H2 ≈ 25 T and beyond that towards μ0H3 (≈50 T).
