Hydrogen phase behaviour in microporous carbons with different pore geometries
In this proposal, we seek to use quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) to investigate the phase behaviour of molecular or di-hydrogen (H2) in cylindrical and slit-shaped pores... -
Understanding an-harmonic behaviour in lyophilised proteins - a high energy r...
By combining OSIRIS/IN16 elastic window and QENS data we better understand dynamics in lyophilised apoferritin. This complimentary approach reveals that the observed decrease in... -
Uncovering the tension-compression asymmetry of low stacking fault FCC alloys...
A certain type of alloys, with face-centered-cubic (FCC) structure and medium to low stacking fault energies (SFE), can trigger the formation of multiple twins (mechanical... -
Proton vibrations in lithium imide studied through incoherent inelastic neutr...
We propose to measure the incoherent neutron spectra of lithium amide (LiNH_2) and imide (Li_2NH) at low temperature (T<20 K). These two substances belong to the Li-H-N... -
Revising the onset of anharmonicity in proteins
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... -
Uptake of Molecular Hydrogen by High-performance Carbon Nanostructures (NIMROD)
High sorption capacities and enhanced interaction strengths are the two most fundamental prerequisites for the deployment of carbon-based materials as hydrogen-storage media. In... -
Measurement of surface diffusion on Raney nickel
Many catalysts work by adsorbing molecules onto their surface to from a more concentrated phase, which increases the likelihood of reactants colliding, and reacting to form a... -
The structure of metal-ammonia Ogg glasses
In this application we will conduct the first detailed study of the structure of glassy metal-ammonia systems ? so-called Ogg glasses, named after the person who first proposed... -
Investigation of pseudo-condensation of supercritical H2 in nanoporous hydrog...
This proposal aims to use small angle neutron scattering for characterization of hydrogen adsorption (including the provision of a quantitative value for the absolute hydrogen... -
Diffraction investigation of cyclic molecules on surfaces of different symmetry
The wetting of solid surfaces by gases and liquids is both fundamentally and technologically important especially in the areas of energy storage and conversion, e.g. catalysis.... -
Comparing hydrogen densification in microporous carbons with slit and cylindr...
Neutron scattering is one of the few experimental techniques that can directly determine the state of confined H2 molecules in microporous solids. In this proposal, we seek to... -
Solid state hydrogen storage in carbon nitride materials for practical applic...
Existing fossil fuels are on the verge of extinction and thus in this scenario renewable fuels are need of hour. Hydrogen is potential energy source and can be stored in carbon... -
Cavitation processes in gas desorption experiments.
The aim of the experiment is to improve understanding of the onset of the cavitation process in desorption, in order to, ultimately, better understand adsorbate behaviour and... -

This proposal builds on the success of our last INS experiment (RB1210041), which used TOSCA's new low energy capabilities to access and track the elastic line as well as the... -
The intermediate stages of hydrogen disorder to order phase transitions in ice
In recent years, our team has discovered three new phases of ice: ices XIII, XIV and XV. On the basis of calorimetric data and some limited diffraction data collected on GEM we... -
