It describes the precise determination of the phase diagram of BaFe2-xNixAs2, which demonstrates strong magnetoelastic coupling and avoided quantum criticality driven by short-range incommensurate antiferromagnetic order, showing cluster spin glass behavior. It also identifies strong nematic spin correlations in the tetragonal state of uniaxial strained BaFe2-xNixAs2. The nematic correlations have similar temperature and doping dependence as resistivity anisotropy in detwinned samples, which suggests that they are intimately connected. Lastly, it investigates doping evolution of magnetic excitations in overdoped BaFe2-xNixAs2 and discusses the links with superconductivity. This book includes detailed neutron scattering results on BaFe2-xNixAs2 and an introduction to neutron scattering techniques, making it a useful guide for readers pursuing related research.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053SuperconductivitySuperconductorsPhysical measurementsMeasurement   MagnetismMagnetic materialsStrongly Correlated Systems, Superconductivityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25064Measurement Science and Instrumentationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31040Magnetism, Magnetic Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25129Superconductivity.Superconductors.Physical measurements.Measurement   .Magnetism.Magnetic materials.Strongly Correlated Systems, Superconductivity.Measurement Science and Instrumentation.Magnetism, Magnetic Materials.541.363Lu Xingyeauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut825130MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254577003321Phase Diagram and Magnetic Excitations of BaFe2-xNixAs2: A Neutron Scattering Study1835333UNINA
