Defects and Medium-Range Disorder in the Metal¿Organic Framework UiO-66
We wish to use NIMROD to study the distribution and nature of defect sites in the high-thermal-stability metal-organic framework UiO-66. For the most part, defect structures in... -
µSR studies of free radical reactions by non-thermal microwave effects
We plan to study the non-thermal microwave (MW) effects on H2O2 through its reaction with muonium under MW irradiation. The key objectives are 1) for the first time definitively... -
A total scattering study of the concentration and temperature dependence of s...
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are ubiquitous in our portable electronics, however they are ill suited for applications where cost or sustainability are of paramount importance,... -

CuH: a (nearly) 200 year old problem SANDALS
Copper (I) hydride, CuH, is unique amongst the binary metal hydrides in that it can be synthesised, at room temperature, in aqueous solution. In recent years CuH generated in... -
The structure of biomimetic helices in aqueous solutions
Protein secondary structure, in particular alpha-helical structure, is essential for a variety of functions in nature. These structures are integral to such biophysical... -
Kinetics of Benzene Hydrogenation Revisited in the Presence of Excess Liquid
Heterogeneous catalysis, where the reagents are either contained in a liquid medium, or are liquids in their own right, plays a significant part of the chemical industry. These... -
A wide-range energy and wave-vector transfer instrument for pulsed sources
Neutron scattering is a powerful technique to reveal structure and dynamics in condensed matter, espacially in hydrogen containing materials. For these systems, the experimental... -
Liquid Nanostructure and Amphiphile Self-Assembly in pre-Ouzo Ternary Mixtures
Ionic liquids (ILs) - salts that melt near room temperature - have remarkable properties as solvents for a wide variety of molecules and ions. ILs share with water the rare... -
Pressure effect on stable and metastable structural phases in geometrically f...
Geometrically frustrated antiferromagnet LuBaCo4O7 exhibits unusual competition between two low-temperature phases with orthorhombic and monoclinic symmetry. Depending on... -
Soft hydrogen bonding: how does methanol dock onto olefins and aromatic compo...
Hydrogen bonding (HB) is an ubiquitous interaction. Weak HB (WHB) has long been acknowledged to exist such as: O-H ...... pi cloud, where either the aromatic electron cloud or... -
Micro-, Meso-, Macro- Structure and Dynamics of Biocompatible Dental Glass Io...
Glass Ionomer Cements (GICs) have found numerous applications as bone fillers, replacements and adhesives, particularly in dentistry due to their tooth like appearance and... -
Comparing peptide folding states in non-aqueous and aqueous solutions
How proteins fold from their linear sequence into their functional structures is still not understood and the misfolding of proteins is linked to a variety of diseases - such as... -
Structure Direction from Electrons in the Presence of the 'Alkalide Option': ...
We request 5 days on SANDALS to investigate the structural effect of expanded metals in the LiNa-MeNH2 system at three different concentrations. The interplay between... -
Determination of the elemental composition in relation to the metal alloy usa...
We propose to obtain in elemental composition on Renaissance Bronzes related to the circle of the Sculpto Francois Duquesnoy. A recent attachment of a NRCA detector at INES will... -
The solvation of ammonia borane by diglyme
Ammonia borane (AB) is arguably the most promising hydrogen storage material for use in clean, green fuel applications. Simple heating of AB produces hydrogen that can be used... -
The structure of polar aprotic solvents in cylindrical nanopores
The aim of this experiment is to understand the structure of two widely used polar organic solvents, N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) and N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), in cylindrical... -
Analysis of Celtic coins from northern Italy
Our research group is working on the Celtic coinage from northern Italy and has already carried out two measurement sessions at ISIS. A selection of 25 coins (drachmas) has been... -
Temperature-Dependent Structural Changes in Liquid Benzene
The non-covalent interactions between aromatic rings are of fundamental importance in large number biological and chemical processes. The local structure of aromatic liquids is... -
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...
