A Local Magnetic Study of the Unusual Phase Behaviour of Sr2YbMoO6
As part of a project to develop new electronic materials based on the coupling of electronic and structural properties in new perovskites we have been investigating the... -
More than the sum - oxidation behaviour of mixed fatty acid monolayers
Single molecule thin films of various surface-active species are found on the surface of water bodies from the sea down to microscopic spray droplets. These films affect the... -
Muon-spin rotation study of the in-plane magnetic penetration depth of \refraof
This is an extention of the previous proposal (RB920385), which was awarded 7 days.The experiment has not been performed yet (scheduled in November), but we forsee... -
Spin dynamics and magnetic ordering in the p-orbital molecular solids CsO2 an...
A magnetic response of the alkali-metal superoxides comes from the p-orbital S = 1/2 spins of anionic O2- molecules. As the O2- molecules are highly reorientable and the... -
Investigation into the Effect of Heating Rates on Recrystallisation Mechanism...
Electrical steels (ES) used in motors and transformers. The major challenge is to optimise the magnetic property of ES to reduce energy waste during service. The... -
The Kinetics of Ethanol Adsorption into Cholesterol Rich Bilayers
In a recent experiment carried out on SURF we have shown that on addition of ethanol to a DPPC model membrane, the anaesthetic initially diffuses to the bilayer surface followed... -
Using Magnetic Contrasts to Establish the Mechanism and Kinetics of Lipid Fli...
In order to maintain their asymmetric lipid distribution, cellular membranes have a number of means to translocate lipid molecules across the bilayer. On top of the well-studied... -
Pinning down pinholin: a structural mechanism to explain how peptide adsorpti...
We will use specular and off-specular neutron reflectivity to provide a structural mechanism for the way in which the amphipathic peptide pinholin controls bacterial cell lysis...
