Effect of pH on the shape of oil-in-water microemulsions formed by a zwitteri...
Despite interest in microemulsions as drug delivery vehicles, there is a lack of structural understanding to justify the formulations used. The present study examines the use of... -
Investigating the ammoniation of light metal hydrides for hydrogen storage ap...
Light-metal hydride and amide systems are currently among the most promising materials for reversible hydrogen storage. In this proposal, we ask for 3 days on POLARIS or GEM to... -
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... -
Dynamics of hydrogen guests and host lattice in clathrates with different str...
The proposing team has a well established experience in the use of neutron scattering on samples containing molecular hydrogen. Our recent experimental results on cubic hydrogen... -
Probing superconductivity, static magnetism and light ion diffusion in molecu...
In 2012 we demonstrated that molecular spacer layers could be intercalated in between FeSe layers resulting in a dramatic enhancement of the critical temperature: FeSe is itself... -
O/N-distribution in host lattices for rare-earth doped phosphors in light emi...
Nitridosilicates and oxonitridosilicates (sions) gain more and more importance as host lattices for rare-earth doped phosphors in light emitting diodes. By means of... -
Is cloud water nitrate radical chemistry important in oxidising thin films on...
Projected climate change is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity, important climatic effects.... -

Interaction of muonium centres and excess carriers in highly injected silicon
We have developed a method to measure carrier recombination lifetime in crystalline silicon with the photo-muSR technique. The key of the method is to measure the dependence of... -
Co-surfactancy of oil-soluble and water-soluble surfactants in emulsion stabi...
The structures of emulsions formed from mixed oil-soluble and water-soluble amphiphiles (respectively derivatives of polyisobutylene, PIBSA, and polyacrylamide, PAM) will be... -
Does Sulphate radical anion oxidse cloud organic matter in the atmosphere?
Projected climate change is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity, important climatic effects.... -
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... -
Aggregation behaviour of aqueous hairy rod conjugated polyelectrolyte/surfact...
Small angle neutron scattering (SANS) will be used to characterise the structures of aggregates formed between the anionic conjugated polyelectrolyte... -
CATIONIC POLYMERS AS POTENTIAL GENE DELIVERY AGENTS: EVALUATION OF CONFORMATI...
Bio-responsive polymers hold great promise as delivery vehicles for drugs, peptides and proteins as their chemistry can be tuned to effect a change in physico-chemical... -
Heterogenous reactions between gas-phase hydroxyl radicals and organic films ...
