Mapping the Full Magnetic Dispersion of Multiferroic LuFe2O4
A better understanding of the magnetic excitation spectrum of LuFe2O4 is required to refine current models of the magnetoelectric coupling in this novel "electronic"... -
structure of surfactant-free microemulsion as the L-L equilibirum line is app...
A surfactant-free microemulsion is ternary system consisting of two completely miscible molecular liquids and a third one that is only highly soluble in or miscible with one of... -
Effects of IR Illumination on Mu Dynamics and Mu0 Formation in TiO2
We propose a study of Mu dynamics and the low temperature Mu$^0$-like states in TiO$_{2}$ under near-IR illumination to investigate the resulting excitonic states and behaviour.... -
Muon Spin Relaxation detection of Spin-Polarized Conduction Electrons in Silicon
The proposed experiment is to observe optical spin-injection in Silicon through MuSR detection. An important part of research in next generation electronics focusses on the... -
Chloride Intracellular Channel insertion into Tethered Bilayer Membranes
Part One of the proposal is concerned with the fundamental structure of the TBM and aims to determine: (i) the impact of spacer molecule length on the dimensions of the bilayer... -
Vibrational Neutron Spectroscopy Studies of Porous Metal-Organic Framework Ma...
The research of new porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is receiving considerable attention worldwide owing to their potential for gas adsorption, storage and separation. We... -
Neutron Residual Stress Measurements of CANDU Piping Components
Residual stresses (RSs) in welded structures are inevitable and it is vital that they are considered and quantitatively estimated when analysing cracking and fracture problems... -
Copy of: Magnetic excitations in the one dimensional (1D) spin-chain systems:...
The spin-chain systems with general formula A¿3ABO6, crystallizing in the K4CdCl6 type structure has attracted a lot attention in recent years due to geometrical frustration... -
Low energy excitations in solid 4He
The atoms in solid helium are weakly bound and have small mass so that the overlap of their wave functions (zero point motion) is large, making it a quantum solid close to the... -
In-operando diffusion measurements on an all-solid-state battery cell
We propose to use muons to probe the diffusion processes which occur within a battery anode during cycling in an all solid-state battery. Such solid-state battery configurations... -
Strain Effects in Filled Rubber Nanocomposites (Continuation)
Our overall aim is to understand the origins of energy dissipation mechanisms in filled rubbers. These effects are responsible for much of the carbon footprint associated with... -
Investigation of lithium diffusion in spinel Li2NiGe3O8 and N-doped Li3+xV4-x...
We wish to perform muon spectroscopic experiments on materials from two ceramic systems that are of interest for possible solid electrolyte applications in lithium-ion battery... -
Co-adsorption of monoclonal antibodies and non-ionic surfactants at the air/l...
Nonionic surfactants usually do not show affinity to proteins and they work via competitive surface and interfacial processes in a binary mixture with protein. However, we show... -
Superstructures in lithium cobaltate
The battery material LixCoO2 has recently been shown to have high thermopower comparable to NaxCoO2 at high x. In the case of NaxCoO2 we showed using neutron Laue diffraction on... -
Phase stability and thermal conductivity in perovskite zirconates
Perovskite zirconates have been suggested as potential next generation thermal barrier materials. SrZrO3 is particularly promising as it has an extremely low thermal... -
The interaction of cytochrome c with floating bilayers containing negatively ...
As research on apoptosis has gained momentum, the importance of membrane lipids in this crucial cellular process is becoming clear.Previously, we have determined using NR and...
