Understanding the barocaloric effect in Mn3NiN using inelastic neutron scatte...
Materials with large caloric effects offer the opportunity to replace current refrigeration technologies that require the compression of hazardous gases. Whilst magnetocaloric... -
How chemical interaction scale affects the dynamics of dense metallic liquids
Using deep inelastic neutron scattering, we plan to investigate chemical short range order on a quantitative level in liquid alloys and its correlation with the long range mass... -
Compositional analysis and working technique determination of Japanese artwor...
The Japanese section of the Stibbert Museum, in Firenze, is one of the most important in the world, excluding Japan for obvious reasons. Here many different artifacts are... -
Spin dynamics of Ce in the Noncentrosymmetric Heavy-Fermion Superconductors C...
In centrosymmetric heavy-fermion (HF) superconductors Cooper pairs have either singlet or triplet symmetry. Recently a handful of non-centrosymmetric Ce-based HF compounds have... -
The zero-point energy of the unusual ice II phase
Water displays a highly complex phase diagram that is key to a range of critical processes, from the evolution of icy moons to that of the Earth's hydrosphere and even of life... -
Can we use the H-H stretch of adsorbed dihydrogen to characterise materials?
The use of the J 0-to-1 rotational transition of dihydrogen has been extensively used to characterise the state if hydrogen in and on materials. The disadvantage of studying the... -
Compositional analysis and working technique determination of five Japanese T...
The Pitt Rivers is Oxford University¿s museum of anthropology and world archaeology. The Japanese material includes a large number of items of metalwork. Amongst these, the... -
Test of Neutron Effects On Commercial Off The Shelf FPGA
The goal of these joint VESUVIO/ChipIR proposed experiments is to characterize the SEU occurrence on new generation FPGA caused by neutrons. We will focus on a Commercial... -
Low-energy dynamics and emergent excitations in the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Cadmium cyanide is a negative thermal expansion material: it shrinks rather than expands when heated. We are proposing to carry out an inelastic neutron scattering... -
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...
