Kinetics of Benzene Hydrogenation Revisited in the Presence of Excess Liquid
Heterogeneous catalysis, where the reagents are either contained in a liquid medium, or are liquids in their own right, plays a significant part of the chemical industry. These... -
Incommensurate-commensurate phase transitions in K2SeO4
Materials with incommensurate structures often show exotic properties (such as charge density waves). The development of reliable and efficient refinement techniques for such... -
Analysis of Celtic coins from northern Italy
Our research group is working on the Celtic coinage from northern Italy and has already carried out two measurement sessions at ISIS. A selection of 25 coins (drachmas) has been... -
Disorder in substituted beta-tricalcium phosphate for waste immobilisation
We have a long established interest in the materials used for the immobilisation of nuclear waste from the domestic power industry and legacy waste from various defence... -
A pair distribution function study of the thermoelectric skutterudites Co1-2x...
Sustainable energy-conversion technologies are important for ensuring our energy supply against declining fossil fuel reserves. Thermoelectric materials offer great potential... -
Crystallographic determination of the minting of coins in Tudor Britain : an ...
King Henry VIII's flagship, the Mary Rose, offers a unique insight into Tudor life. As well as her value as one of the first purpose built warships of the modern period,... -
The structural role of carbonate groups in glass
We request GEM beamtime to study the structure of samples of sodium silicate glass with and without CO3 carbonate groups. The presence of CO3 carbonate groups in the glasses is... -
Muonium in widegap oxides
This proposal is part of a long-range program aiming at determining the stable charge-state configurations, site and impurity energy levels (donor and/or acceptor) of hydrogen... -
Magnetic order in the first hybrid layered fluoroperovskites
Layered perovskites are well known functional materials but, in the context of fluoride chemistry, have so far been restricted to purely inorganic examples: K2NiF4 is the... -
Copy of: Characterization of Indo-Persian blades of the Wallace Collection
This experiment is a continuation of a previous one aiming to analyse the composition and microstructure of Indo-Persian swords and daggers of the Wallace Collection whose... -
The Defect Structure of Scandia Doped Zirconias
There is currently considerable research interest in the synthesis and characterisation of materials with high oxide-ion conductivities, owing to their potential exploitation as... -
Particle dispersions in ODS Nano-Structured Ferritic Alloys
Oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS) materials are under development for use in applications in both nuclear fission and nuclear fusion power generation. The materials offer... -
Muonium in widegap oxides
This proposal is part of a long-range program aiming at determining the stable charge-state configurations, site and impurity energy levels (donor and/or acceptor) of hydrogen... -
Structural Phase Transition with a Large Volume Change in (Bi,Nd)FeO3
BiFeO3 attracts considerable attention because of its multiferroic and ferroelectric properties. Nd-substitutions in antiferromagnetic BiFeO3 induce a significant ferromagnetic... -
Investigating the Structure of Lithium Doped Metal-Organic Framework Glasses
Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), a sub-family of MOFs, have recently been observed to melt, with the liquid surprisingly retaining the chemical composition of the... -

In situ deformation and transformation studies of zirconia dental ceramic
Yttria-stabilised polycrystalline zirconia ceramics (Y-TZP¿s) possess a unique combination of properties that make them attractive for dental prosthetic applications: strength,... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies of Iron Based Electrode Materials
The growing implementation of renewable resources has placed increased demand for cheap, safe and efficient means of storing the energy generated. Lithium and sodium ion... -
Texture measurement and in-situ annealing of hot-rolled α + β dual-...
The experiment will use neutron diffraction to analyse a hot-rolled matrix of dual-phase ZrNb alloys, in order to measure the macroscopic texture dependence on temperature,... -
IN-SITU NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES OF METAL-HYDRIDE HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIALS
Hydrogen storage is considered to be one of the principal technological barriers in the transition towards a hydrogen-based economy. In this proposal, we plan to look at the key...
