Dynamics within the Plastic Crystal Phases of Hydrogen Chloride
Hydrogen chloride exhibits a complex phase diagram account made of its simple molecular structure. Three crystalline phases are known to exist at ambient pressure below its... -
High resolution INS spectra of hydrocarbonaceous overlayers formed on novel m...
For the first time, the research team aim to use INS to characterise a series of new high specification methane reforming catalysts. The enhanced performance of these catalysts... -
IINS measurements on the terminating protons of the basic structural units of...
More than 6 million tonnes of carbon black per year are produced worldwide. The major part is used as reinforcing filler material in tyres and mechanical rubber goods. For... -
Nucleid Acids in Solution
The aim of the experiment is investigate some nucleid acids to provide us with information about the size and shape when is dispersed in a solvent, so in a future studies to be... -
Probing the products of free radical reactions in ionic liquids
Many room temperature ionic liquids (salts with melting points near room temperature that hereafter will be referred to as ionic liquids) are ¿green solvents¿ for chemical... -
Interactions between a polymer brush grown from a macro-initiator-modified sa...
We propose to make neutron reflectivity measurements of the weak polyelectrolyte, poly(dimethy amino ethyl methacrylate), grown from two different surface densities of initiator... -
The manufacturing of Middle and Late Bronze Age Ceremonial Weapons .
We propse to study the phase and strain distributions on ENGIN_X of a Middle and Late Bronze Age weapon: a dirk (dagger) and a sword. The objects are from the National Museum of... -
Binding of DNA to Model Membranes in the Presence of Ca2+ Ions and a Membrane...
The aim of the present work is to gain an understanding of the interaction of DNA with the phospholipid bilayers. The effect of different forms of DNA, the presence of divalent... -
Temperature dependent diffusion of water in human red blood cells
We propose to measure the diffusion of water in human red blood cells on the high resolution spectrometer IRIS with quasi-elastic neutron scattering. Diffusion of water in cells... -
Insulator to metal transition in TiOCl at high pressures
We propose to study the high temperature structure of TiOCl where a pressure induced metal to insulator transition has been reported recently by Kuntscher et al.Due to our... -
Neutron Powder Diffraction Experiments on Ternary Alkali Metal Palladium and ...
Na2PdC2 and Na2PtC2 are the first examples of ternary alkali metal transition metal acetylides. They were synthesized and structurally characterised by our group in 2001 based... -
Ionic liquid containing microemulsions
The aim of this experiment is to characterise several novel ionic liquid ¿ oil and ionic liquid ¿ water microemulsions via SANS prior to their use in the synthesis of metallic...
