High-pressure studies of insenitive explosives: 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN) and...
The aims of this proposal are to explore the high-pressure, high-temperature behaviour of 2 important energetic materials - 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN) and nitrotriazalone (NTO).... -
Pressure-driven transformation of the Al coordination environment in oxide glass
In situ high-pressure neutron diffraction will be used to investigate the pressure-induced transformation of the Al coordination environment in a prototypical aluminosilicate... -
Magnetic and crystal structure of goethite FeOOD under pressure
We propose the first high P/T neutron diffraction measurements on goethite (FeOOH), both the ambient pressure alpha- as well as the high-pressure epsilon-phase, in the P/T range... -
High Pressure Driven Spin States in LaCoO3
This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure structure of LaCoO3 and observing changes within this as the material undergoes some well... -
H2O transport into the deep Earth: A high P-T study of hydrous Phase-A
The mantle is estimated to be planet Earths most massive volatile (e.g. H, C, S, N) storage reservoir, with interactions between crustal and mantle reservoirs dominate the... -
FePS3 magnetic and crystal structure under pressure
We have metallised the two-dimensional honeycomb anti-ferromagnet FePS3 at 5.5 GPa. The mechanisms for metallisation, as well as the physical properties of the metallic state,... -
A High-Pressure investigation on 3,4,5-Trinitropyrazole
This proposal will explore the effect of elevated pressure on the 3,4,5-Trinitropyrazole (TNP). TNP releases a large amount of dinitrogen gas as a detonation product which is...
