The magnetic excitation spectrum in Fe1.07Te
We propose to investigate the high energy magnetic spectrum in Fe1.07Te. We have previously investigated the fluctuations in Fe1.14Te in the incommensurate phase and have found... -
The chemisorption of hydrogen over a Raney cobalt catalyst: An INS investigation
Building on a successful programme investigating aspects of iron based Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) catalysts, it is opportune to extend that work to include Co FTS... -
Magnetic excitations in FeCrAs
We propose to carry out inelastic neutron scattering experiments to study magnetic excitation spectrum in FeCrAs. FeCrAs exhibits magnetic ordering around 125 K, which is... -
Investigation of the nature of organic surface species formed on Au-based sup...
The objective of this proposal is to spectroscopically identify the nature of surface species formed during the addition of tert butyl hydroperoxide onto the surface of the... -
MAPS Investigation of the decompositon of LiNH2BH3
Ammonia borane, NH3BH3, has been extensively studied as a potential hydrogen storage material because of its high hydrogen content (19.6wt%) and relatively low decomposition... -
The chemisorption of hydrogen on cobalt
Cobalt based catalysts are widely used within industry for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) in the production of sulphur free diesel. Despite the wide application of cobalt... -
The expoitation of the A, B, C spectral signatures of H-bonds.
Intermediate strength hydrogen bonds, H-bonds, are known to play a role in the reactions of surface bound species, especially on the widely used industrial substrate... -
INS study of the effect of particle size on the formation of beta-palladium h...
Finely divided, supported palladium particles are used as catalysts in many technical processes. However, there is still considerable potential to improve catalyst performance... -
Quantification of hydrocarbonaceous overlayers relevant to the induction of i...

Spin excitations in LiFeAs, a stoichiometric ferropnictide superconductor at ...
We propose to measure the powder-averaged spin excitation spectrum of LiFeAs, a new member of the ferropnictide family of superconductors. This compound is special because it is... -
The application of INS to examine high specification Fe Fischer-Tropsch catal...
Over the last 4-5 years the research team have been developing INS methodology that can be applied to investigate Fe Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) catalysts. The first stage of that... -
Magnetic excitation in triangular latticce antiferromagnet alpha-CaCr2O4
The triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet is the classic example of the frustrated magnet, here the ground state forms a non-collinear 120° structure. A number of different... -
Characterisation of on-top hydrogen on fuel cell catalysts.
A key step in a fuel cell is the dissociation of hydrogen gas to provide protons and electrons by a catalyst. For low temperature fuel cells carbon black supported... -
Magnetic excitations of the model one-dimensional metal K0.3MnO3
Understanding the electronic properties of low-dimensional systems remains one of the central challenges of condensed matter physics. Although great progress has been made in... -
Influence of promoting additives on the formation of palladium hydrides in te...
Steering and optimizing catalyst selectivity at ¿ simultaneously - adequate catalyst activity is a continuing challenge in chemical technology and of high economic impact. In... -
Excitation spectrum of magnetic stripes in an insulating hole-doped antiferro...
The proposal aims to investigate the formation of magnetic stripes in La2-xSrxCoO4. Recent measurements have revealed an hourglass magnetic spectrum at x=1/3. The question we... -
