X-ray studies of magnetic and structural transitions in iridates

In this thesis, I describe x-ray experiments that rst detect the symmetry breaking at magnetic and structural transitions in iridium based transition metal oxides, and then characterise the ensuing state. The magnetic transition in pyrochlore iridates R2Ir2O7, where R = Sm, Nd and Tb, was studied wi...
