Oxygen kinetic energy and momentum distribution in light and heavy water acro...
Nuclear quantum effects in water arise from the noncommutative character of momentum and position, which in turn is related to the potential energy surface onto which the atoms... -
Quantum corrections for water in carbon nanohorns
The microscopic structure of of water [and ice] in carbon nanohorns by neutron diffraction on GEM has shown that water has a density that is ~20% lower than the normal liquid... -
Proton Zero Point Energy Effects on the Folding of Proteins
Earlier experiment at ISIS have shown that water responds to the distortion of the hydrogen bond network by delocalizing some of the protons in the vicinity of the defects. That... -
Oxygen kinetic energy and momentum distribution in light and heavy water acro...
In our previous experiment, RB1120106 (see the experimental report in the database), we have successfully isolated the oxygen Compton profile in heavy water. The kinetic energy... -
DINS scattering in supercritical water
The proposed experiment aims to explore in detail these two effects in a thermodynamic range at ~25 MPa over a temperature range of 280° to 600°C, never investigated before,... -
The proton quantum states of the amorphous ices (MARI)
While we now have a complete picture of the average local and intermediate structures of the various amorphous ices, their dynamic behaviour (glass transition and defect... -
The proton quantum states of the amorphous ices (VESUVIO)
While we now have a complete picture of the average local and intermediate structures of the various amorphous ices, their dynamic behaviour (glass transition and defect... -
Quantum differences in heavy and light water
The density maximum of water is probably its best known anomaly and attempts to account for this phenomenon go back to Roentgen in 1892 and possibly further. We would like to... -
The proton momentum distribution in oriented ice films
We propose to fully characterise the proton quantum dynamics in oriented ice, grown on Pt surface, via DINS experiment and quantum ¿mechanical calculation, using path integral... -
Proton dynamics of water approaching the supercooled phase
In a recent DINS experiment (RB520101) we have possibly evidenced a new anomaly of supercooled water. Data at T = 269 and 271 K show clear differences in the proton neutron... -
Ionic radius perturbation on water hydrogen bond network
The salts composed by elements of the first period with halogen elements are a family of compounds with different anionic and cationic combination. In this proposal we aim at... -
Water in extreme environment. The case of Mariana Trench
The Mariana Trench is one of the most famous extreme environment on our planet. Salinity is around 35 g salts per one kg of water at temperatures ranging from 274 K to 277 K ,...
