Annual maxima of sub-daily precipitation were extracted from each of 35 members of a EURO-CORDEX ensemble with a spatial resolution of 0.11° (EURO-CORDEX:...

We have been studying the formation of solid polymer-surfactant films formed from cationic surfactants with PEI. We wish to use the highly organised mesostructures formed in the...

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...

YbNiSn is an Ising ferromagnet with non-colinear spins that undergoes a first order magnetic transition in low magnetic field (0.9 T). The transition is associated with strong...

Ethanol plays an important role in the human metabolism. It is in particular known to act as a drug enhancer by increasing trans-membrane permeability, and as an anesthetic....

Li_2NH has been recently considered for H_2 storage applications. However, its low-T crystal structure is still controversial, with at least 6 options compatible with the...

Permanent magnets are essential for renewable energy technologies such as electric cars and wind turbines. Global demand for magnets is increasing, however, the elements used to...

This proposal aims use a novel approach whereby deuterated amyloid peptide fibrils are givenhydrogenated growing ends, and analysed using SANS. The data will enable us to...

This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the solution aggregation of collagen based polypeptides and their interactions with model surfactants....

This proposal seeks to identify and characterise the adsorption of primary linear amides that adsorb to the surface from the bulk of a polymer melt. These layers are...

High entropy alloys are receiving significant attention worldwide as a new class of materials that offer unique and attractive properties. However, controversy exists over their...

We have prepared the transition metal borohydride hydrazinates (ZBH) for the first time. Zn(BH4)2-2N2H4 exhibits pure hydrogen evolution below 200 °C as determined by...

In 1972, Haupt observed a giant enhancement of proton polarisation in NMR experiments on crystalline g-picoline. Key to this discovery was the implementation of quick...

Despite the large research effort that has been made, the microscopic processes of hydrogen chemisorption on graphite is not well understood. By ball milling graphite for a...

The aim of this proposal is to use neutron powder diffraction to characterise a series of 9 new halide modified lithium amides and imides which are of interest as reversible...

Increasing the density of hydrogen storage is critical for the commercial introduction of hydrogen vehicles. Our nanostructured electrospun ammonia borane (AB)-polystyrene (PS)...

Lipoproteins are the main carriers of lipids in the body. HDL is believed to favor cholesterol removal and decrease the risk to develop atherosclerosis and related...

Atherosclerosis and subsequent clinical complication is one of the biggest killers in the western world, with a death toll reaching 16.7 million deaths per year. Although many...

Block copolymers are of interest due to their ability to undergo microphase separation. Originally block copolymers were produced with a low polydispersity index (PDI) as they...

Short peptide sequences such as KLVFFAE form well defined beta sheet structures. Their further templating through hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding is the principal...
