Impact of in-situ strain-tuning on the magnetic structure of Ca3Ru2O7
We propose to perform high-resolution neutron diffraction on strained Ca3Ru2O7, a material in which electron correlations, spin-orbit coupling and crystal fields combine to... -
Understanding the barocaloric effect in Mn3NiN using inelastic neutron scatte...
Materials with large caloric effects offer the opportunity to replace current refrigeration technologies that require the compression of hazardous gases. Whilst magnetocaloric... -
Local magnetic distortion close to the Curie transition in the magnetocaloric...
Magnetic cooling is a reliable technique for refrigeration, however, understanding of fundamental science and materials is essential for utilizing the technique fully. Fe2P is... -

Hydrogen phase behaviour in microporous carbons with different pore geometries
In this proposal, we seek to use quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) to investigate the phase behaviour of molecular or di-hydrogen (H2) in cylindrical and slit-shaped pores... -

Microscopic dynamics of water associated to phospholilipd/polysaccharide nano...
In recent years nano- and microparticles composed of polymeric or lipid material have been proposed as drug carriers. Their use allows the modification of the biopharmaceutic... -
Revising the onset of anharmonicity in proteins
Our previous INS studies of ¿dry¿/hydrated apoferritin show that the hydrated protein undergoes a dynamical transition, Td, at 200K. Such behavior, first modeled by Doster et al... -
Molecular dynamics in the Metal-Organic Framework [CH3NH3][Co(COOH)3]
Magnetic hybrid organic-inorganic Perovskites have attracted much attention lately as they potentially show a magneto-electric coupling, thanks to the strong interaction between... -
Orientational and conformational disorder in a halogen-ethane compound
The translational and orientational disorder of some liquids can be frozen if they are cooled down quick enough, giving rise to a Structural Glass (SG). But for some molecular... -
Investigation of the new spin-ladder compound MgCu2O3
Here we propose to investigate the excitation spectrum of the new spin-ladder compound MgCu2O3. Unlike typical spin-ladders this compound has a rung coupling that is much weaker... -
Search for new hydrogen, helium and neon hydrates at high pressure
This proposal is for time to search for predicted gas hydrates at high pressure. The results will provide insight into the factors governing the stability of the H-bonded... -
Spin dynamics in the zig-zag ladder beta-CaCr2O4
We propose to investigate the spin dynamics in the frustrated antiferromagnet beta-CaCr2O4. Its structure consist in one dimensional chains of Cr+3 forming the legs of zig-zag... -
Local structure of deuterated perovskite methylammonium lead iodide CD3ND3PbI3
Methylammonium lead iodide has recently been recognised as an excellent photovoltaic material, with energy conversion efficient of up to 15% with the prospect of gaining higher... -
Which is it? ¿ Neutrons distinguish monolayers xrays can¿t.
We have obtained the monolayer structure diffraction patterns from several iodoalkanes adsorbed on graphite, of interest in the study of non-covalent bonding. However, it is... -
Doping of Dion-Jacobson phases with quantum magnetic ground states
Dion-Jacobson (DJ) [layered perovskites A'[An-1BnO3n+1], where A' is an alkali cation, A is an alkaline earth or rare earth cation and B is a transition metal) have a wide range... -
How Encapsulated is a Sodide? Li+Na--EtNH2 vs Li+e--EtNH2
We have recently begun to look at how large, polarisable alkalides (group 1 metal anions) are solvated in solution. This proposal aims to determine how ethylamine is able to... -
Unravelling the ageing mechanims of dry seeds: molecular mobility within biol...
Faster-than-expected ageing is observed in some seeds (e.g. orchids, coffee, citrus, willows) stored dry at -20°C, the standard temperatures of seed banks. This ageing has been... -
Structural relaxation in LiCl 6D2O
We propose to measure the structural relaxation in this prototype glass former. The structural ralaxation time will be obtained at the structure factor maximum. We suppose that... -
Cation substitution in synthetic meridianiite (MgSO4.11D2O): phase behaviour ...
MgSO4.11H2O (MS11) is the most highly hydrated phase in the binary MgSO4¿H2O system. Whilst lower hydrates in this system have end-member analogues containing alternative...
