Test of Neutron Effects On Commercial Off The Shelf FPGA
The goal of these joint VESUVIO/ChipIR proposed experiments is to characterize the SEU occurrence on new generation FPGA caused by neutrons. We will focus on a Commercial... -
Probing the Kinetics and Liquid Structure of Toluene Hydrogenation by Pt/MCM-41
In a proof-of-concept beamtime award (RB1220486) we studied the process of platinum-catalysed benzene hydrogenation in the pores of MCM-41 using standard neutron diffraction... -
Spin excitations in the pseudogap region of YBCO6.5 Ortho-II Superconductor
We propose to investigate the spin dynamics in the Ortho-II order YBCO6.5 superconductor at energies above 100 meV. This study will be aimed at searching for the broadening of... -
Inelastic neutron scattering and musr studies of the high-distorted double pe...
The heat capacity and neutron powder diffraction measurements of the double perovskites La2NaB′O6 (B = Ru5+, Os5+) with S=3/2 on the B¿ reveal an incommensurate magnetic... -
Arrested states of clay-water suspensions
The unprecedented simultaneous accessibility of the low and high Q region available on NIMROD allows to tackle the issue of ageing of colloidal systems from the point of view of... -
Magnetic excitations in single-crystals of LaFeAsO
We aim to determine the magnetic excitation spectrum in single-crystals of the parent LaFeAsO compound and thereby address some basic issues concerning the nature of the... -
Radiation damage test of CCD cameras for neutron imaging applications
In the framework of the PANAREA project, aiming to the development of new instruments for neutron imaging on TS2, the determination of geometric, optic, electronic, and aging... -
Vibrational properties of Vanadium and Zirconium based metal hydrides
Inelastic neutron scattering has proven to be reliable tool to investigate the phonon structure of hydrides. E.g., it was shown that the vibrational structure of Ca(BH4)2 has a... -

Magnetic excitation in triangular latticce antiferromagnet alpha-CaCr2O4
The triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet is the classic example of the frustrated magnet, here the ground state forms a non-collinear 120° structure. A number of different... -
Quantum Methyl Rotors for Gas Sensing in Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8
We aim to utilise Low-Energy Neutron Scattering (LENS) at OSIRIS to investigate the effects of gas adsorption on the quantum rotation of the methyl groups present in a Metal... -
In situ neutron diffraction study of Sr0.75Y0.25CoO2.62
Sr0.75Y0.25CoO2.62 is a promising cathode material for solid oxide fuel cells. It shows metallic behaviour above 600K and molecular dynamics simulations have concluded that... -
Low-Temperature Structural Phase Transitions in GeV4S8
The defect thiospinel, GeV4S8 adopts a cubic structure at room temperature (space group F-43m). We have identified a new monoclinic phase of this material at 2K, which may be... -
Solvation dynamics of the phosopholipid 1,2-dipropanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoc...
It is well known that water is the medium in which the overwhelming majority of biological processes take place. In cell membranes water molecules are thought to be essential to... -
How is the nanoscale structure of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) impacted by the...
This experiment will determine how the structure and porosity of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) changes when the ice is contaminated by adsorbate molecules. ASW is a porous... -
Measuring the intrinsic Density of Nanoconfined Liquids
Despite abundant research on nanoconfined liquids, determining the density, which is a key property of the liquid, remains an open problem. All the previously explored... -
Hydration of Guanosine, G-quartets and G-quadruplex
Guanosine (GMP) is the ideal brick for controlled self-assembly of biocompatible materials, as it has the special ability to self-associate in water to form G-quartets (G4), and... -
