NATCOOP dataset
The NATCOOP project set out to study how nature shapes the preferences and incentives of economic agents and how this in turn affects common-pool resource management. Imagine a... -
Cooling Off in Negotiations: Does it Work? [Dataset]
Negotiations frequently end in conflict after one party rejects a final offer. In a large-scale Internet experiment, we investigate whether a 24-hour cooling-off period leads to... -
On the Ingredients for Bubble Formation: Informed Traders and Communication [...
Bubbles in asset markets have been documented in numerous experiments. Most experiments in which bubbles occur feature a declining fundamental value. This feature has been... -
Magnetic order and low-energy fluctuations in a frustrated square lattice qua...
This proposal is part of our research programme to investigate quantum magnets on frustrated lattices in search for novel types of magnetic order and spin dynamics. Here we... -
Polymer displacement by surfactant at colloidal interface
The interactions of neutral polymers with surfactants have a key role in detergency and are systems of current academic and commercial interest. Here, we propose to study the... -
SANS studies of the micellar structure of C12-L-Carnitine and C14-L-Carnitine...
Acyl L-Carnitines are a group of novel surfactants with attractive physical and biological properties associated with their head group charge features. This work proposes to use... -
Wittig Revisited: Cleaning up 50 years of Waste in Metal-Free Catalysis
Recent thereotical determinations on the Wittig reaction point to low energy (terahertz) vibrations in the ~15-50 meV region being responsible for selectivity of this industrial... -
Assembling floating, very sparsely tethered, bilayers.
The cell membrane is a very important structure in biology and many laboratory based model systems have been developed to study it using biophysical techniques. Our particular... -
Surface structure of ethoxylated PEI/SDS mixtures: optimising surface properties
The strong interaction between polyelectrolytes and ionic surfactants can result in pronounced surface adsorption and the formation of surface multilayer structures. This... -
Effect of End Group on RAFT-Polymers for Lipid Nanodisc Stabilisation
Polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs offer enormous potential as tools for enabling membrane protein structural studies & biophysics. Previously we studied discs formed using... -
SANS Study of the interaction of reconstituted model wheat waxes with non-ion...
The understanding of the plant wax-surfactant interaction process is crucial to the development of more effective pesticide and fungicide formulations, essential for improving... -
Investigation for pressure-induced ferroelectric polarization flop phenomenon...
We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments under high-pressure on multiferroic TbMnO3 using WISH in combination with hybrid-anvil-type high-pressure device. Recently,... -
The structure of paraquat in solution and in clay gels
This experiment will use high resolution neutron diffraction to determine for the first time thesolvation structure of the pesticide paraquat in bulk aqueous solution and in the... -
Determination of the Low Temperature Crystal Structure of Cobalt Adipate
This experiment will use high resolution neutron diffraction to investigate the crystal and magnetic structure of the cobalt adipate framework, Co(CO2(CH2)4CO2), at lower... -
The structure of aprotic and aromatic solvents
In this proposal we would like to study the structure of polar aprotic and aromatic liquids using H/D and 15N/*N isotopic labelling on SANDALS. The molecules chosen for study... -
A study of hole injection efficiency for a model conjugated bilayer system
