The dynamics of a hydride in a metal cage: a study of [(Ph3P)2N] [HCo6(CO)15].
We propose to collect, on TOSCA, the IINS spectrum of the [(Ph3P)2N] [HCo6(CO)15] complex to obtain information on the dynamics of the interstitial hydride and the influence, on... -
The role of dislocation slip on the activation of different twinning modes in...
Twinning is an important deformation mechanism in hcp metals like Zirconium. It is now accepted that, unless twinning is accounted for, the typical deformation textures in these... -
Stochastic vs. Intermolecular Motions in Strongly Associated Liquids: The Cas...
Neutron scattering is a powerful technique to study stochastic motions in liquids but it requires an energy resolution well below the meV range. As a consequence, quasielastic... -
Vibrational Dynamics of Alkali Silicate Glasses - An Isotopic Mass Contrast S...
The present proposal is part of a larger EPSRC project advancing the vibrational spectroscopy of silicate glasses. The project involves the techniques of IR and Raman... -
The effect of sodium ordering on rattling modes in sodium cobaltate
NaxCoO2 has exceptional thermoelectric properties, including low thermal conductivity, and it is currently under consideration for use in power recovery applications and as a... -
Generalising the link between catalytic activity and low-energy normal modes ...
Our recent theoretical and experimental characterisations of novel Pd N-heterocyclic carbene catalysts showed a clear relation between low-energy normal mode energies and... -
Investigation of the Q-dependent vibrational modes of MgD2 using poly-CINS
This proposal seeks to measure the poly-CINS (polycrystalline coherent inelastic neutron scattering) spectrum from magnesium deuteride (MgD2); a powder sample on the MARI... -

Characterisation of tunnelling modes of adsorbed methoxy on eta-alumina
Our previous proposal strongly suggested that the methyl groups of adsorbed methoxy on eta-alumina do exhibit tunnelling. This application aims to provide additional evidence to... -
Rattling modes in new thermoelectrics
NaxCoO2 has an exceptional combination of thermoelectric properties, including low thermal conductivity, and it is currently under consideration for use in power recovery and as...
