This experimental project is focused on electrical and thermal transport properties. In insulating magnets we study the transport of spin excitations of frustrated lattices. From the longitudinal heat conductivity we expect information on low-energy spectral features as well as on scattering processes, whereas the transversal heat conductivity is exploited in order to disentangle phononic and magnetic heat transport as well as to search for thermal transport due to topological edge states. In itinerant frustrated magnets and magnetic Weyl semimetals we study unusual magnetotransport, for instance the Nernst effect.
