Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -
Structural development during crystallisation of synthetic polymers
We wish to exploit the unique capability of Nimrod to move forward the long standing issue of the way in which long chain polymers crystallise. There are two key length scales:... -
Proton mobility in hydrated melanin as a function of temperature
Electroceuticals is the attempt to speak the electrical language of the nerves to achieve higher treatment effect. Thus, the search is on to develop devices to enhance... -
Competitive adsorption in hydrophobin-surfactant mixtures
Hydrophobins are small compact secreted fungal proteins which are strongly surface active and adhere to both hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. Their strong surface activity... -
Phonon density of states in high-conductivity delafossites
The delafossite compounds PdCoO2 and PtCoO2 show extremely high electrical conductivity at low temperatures. In this system Pt,Pd layers with triangular arrangement are... -
Evolution of interlayer water to form gel-like layers in graphene oxide
Graphene oxide is a heavily functionalised form of grapheme that is dispersible in water and other solvents. As water is added to pristine graphene oxide there is formation... -
Antibiotic Interactions with models of the Gram negative bacterial outer memb...
Gram-negative bacteria, which cause a variety of diseases including meningitis, plague, sepsis and food poisoning, are becoming increasingly antibiotic resistant. One reason is...
