Probing the interaction of hydrogen with supported gold nanoparticles
Small gold nanoparticles (1-5 nm) supported on metal oxides are extremely active catalysts for C-C coupling, aerobic oxidations and selective hydrogenations. The interaction of... -

Higher resolution inspection of the hydrocarbon pool connected with the metha...
The reaction of methanol to form hydrocarbons over zeolite catalysts is an important option for conversion of natural gas or coal to liquid fuels. We have shown previously via... -
Assembly of functionalized nanoparticles at fluid interfaces
To try to understand the variation in surface tension as a function of functionalized gold nanoparticle particle and SDS concentration, we will make measurements of the specular... -
The correlation of metallography with neutron diffraction for Indo-Persian ar...
Our long-term aim is a detailed study of the manufacture of wootz (the so-called Damascus steel)a high-C% cast steel which was very slowly cooled and very carefully forged so as... -
Identification of Hidden Coins from an Egyptian site
The application of neutron based techniques in the field of archaeology is quite recent. In particular, the development of neutron tomography and its application on cultural... -
Polymer conjugates for drug delivery
Complex polymer architectures such as comb polymers have been studied for their highly customisable chemical properties. Potential applications have been identified in a wide... -
Probing the structure of antibiotic-gold nanoparticle conjugates
In a one-pot synthesis, we are able to produce spherical gold nanoparticles capped with antibiotics, without the use of other chemicals by using the antibiotic as the reducing... -

Probing the Kinetics of Assembly and Triggered Dispersion of Peptide-Function...
Peptide-functionalized nanoparticle (NP) aggregates have significant potential as biosensors (for specific enzymes) due to their high sensitivity, modular design and simple... -
Responsive polymer brushes grafted from gold nanoparticles: interaction with ...
We will use SANS to characterize dispersions of gold nanoparticles functionalized with poly(dimethyl aminoethyl methacrylate) brushes grafted from 25 nm gold nanoparticle... -
Adsorption of perfluoroalkyl substances to solid soil interface to elucidate ...
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are stable compounds and commercially desirable. They are widely used, for example, as surfactants in textile and paper products and in aqueous... -
Texture and 3D strain pole figure measurement of engineering components by GEM
The proposed experiment is to measure texture and strain tensor for specimens made by Direct Laser Deposition (DLD) and Linear Friction Welding (LFW) techniques. The... -
Iron Knives and Swords from the Anglo-Saxon Cemetery at Watchfield, Oxfordshire
We propose to analyse 23 Early Medieval (ca. 6th century AD) iron knives and swords from the cemetery site at Watchfield, Oxon. The objects are in the care of Oxfordshire County... -
Simultaneous measurements of ND, BET, PGAA and NR at INES beam line
Neutron based techniques for materials study are important in fields ranging from chemistry, physics and archaeometry. Neutron diffraction gives information on phases and... -
Electron energy loss spectroscopy of bulk gold with ultrasoft pseudopotential...
The implementation of ultrasoft pseudopotentials into time-dependent density-functional perturbation theory is detailed for both the Sternheimer approach and the...
