Oxygen kinetic energy and momentum distribution in light and heavy water acro...
Nuclear quantum effects in water arise from the noncommutative character of momentum and position, which in turn is related to the potential energy surface onto which the atoms... -
Towards Neutron Scattering of Amorphous Materials in the Gigapascal Regime
Over the past few years, extensive developments have been made in the use of neutron diffraction for structural studies of liquids and amorphous materials at high pressure.... -
The role of biogenic amines in lipopeptide biofilm formation
Pore forming lipopeptides, such as Tolaasin, are produced by pathogenic mushroom bacteria, and are implicated in diseases such as ¿brown blotch¿ disease. They have potential... -
The Formation of Ion Channels in Phospholipid Bilayers by Puroindoline-a
Puroindolines are basic, cysteine rich proteins of ~13KDa, which have attracted significant interest due to their role in determining the endosperm texture of Wheat and seed... -
Absolute normalisation of spectra in DINS experiments:exploring the route to ...
The aim of this proposal is to investigate in the methodology of Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering (DINS) data analysis, with especial emphasis in the absolute normalisation of... -
Structural Observation of the Self-Assembly Kinetics of Cyclic Peptide Nanotubes
Cyclic peptides with alternating side chain stereochemistry are capable of self-assembling into long nanotubes. The conjugation of polymers to these peptides renders the... -
Encapsulation in Mixed Cat-anionic Surfactant Polymer Films
This proposal continues our investigations into polyelectrolyte-surfactant films at the air-solution interface. Using mixtures of cationic and anionic surfactants (CTAB/SDS) we... -
HD dynamics in ice XVII
The proposing team has recently obtained important neutron scattering results on samples of different kind of ice containing molecular hydrogen (sII and sH hydrogen-filled... -
Spin Waves at High Temperature in the Parent Compound of the Superconductor F...
The recently discovered iron based superconductors have transition temperatures second only to the cuprates. The majority of these compounds display superconductivity after... -
Adsorption of modified polysorbate (Tween) surfactants at the air-water inter...
The nonionic polysorbate (Tween) surfactants are an important class of food grade surfactants. They are extensively use in emulsion and foam stabilisation, and are increasingly... -
Membrane-stacking Properties of Mutant Myelin Proteins
Myelin is the multilamellar structure that ensheaths axons and accelerates nervous impulses in the nervous system. The fine structure of myelin remains to be further... -
Polymer-surfactant films containing glucose sensors
This proposal continues our research on mesostructured surfactant templated polymer films that form spontaneously at the air-water interface. Our recent research has shown it is... -
Formulating polymer solutions to stabilise polymeric foams
Polyurethane foams (PUFs) are commonly prepared by mixing Pluronic type copolymers and isocyanate reactive monomers in the presence of additives e.g. catalysts, blowing agent... -
Mixed surfactants for positive synergism in dense CO2
This proposal aims to explore a cheaper and more environmental-benign surfactant system for yielding efficient water/CO2 microemulsions. The new surfactants permit high... -
SANS Studies of Novel Internally Stabilised Liposomes
Internally supported liposomes (ISLs) are composed of polymeric spheres enclosed by liposomes. Although very little research has been done on ISLs, understanding their... -
Probing the thickness of the polymer adsorbed layer in HEUR stabilized oil in...
Oils are commonly used in personal care industry as emollients. Owing to their undesirable feel they are formulated in oil in water emulsions form. Emulsions contains... -
Small-angle neutron scattering study of human growth hormone-surfactant compl...
Liquid pharmaceutical formulations are commonly comprised of proteins and surfactants, which interact in solution in order to provide an increase in system stability. Although...
