Interlayer and Interparticle Water in Clays
Clay barriers are routinely used in nuclear waste repositories to isolate radionuclides from the biosphere. Such barriers have to be carefully designed to remain effective for... -
Investigation of the excitation spectrum in the 1D distorted diamond chain Az...
We propose to investigate the excitation spectrum of azurite in both zero field and applied fields up to 7T. Using inelastic neutrons on OSIRIS we hope to clearly resolve the... -
Investigation of the low temperature magnetic order in azurite.
Both a natural mineral and quantum magnet, azurite is a candidate model of the so-called Distorted Diamond Chain system. Such a system should theoretically exhibit spin-1/3... -
Determination of the detection limits and quantitative analysis reliability o...
Neutron diffraction offers one of the most interesting and meaningful methods for non destructive quantitative determination of the phase composition of materials. However, it...
