A new compound Yb3(GaGe)10 compound was obtained from the reactions by using indium and gallium respectively as reactive metal flux. Available laboratory Xray crystallography...

2 days are required on Loq for the 2013 Neutron Training Course

We propose to obtain 3 days of beam time on SXD equipped with its new top-loading CCR to analyze CaCrFe3As3 single crystals at different temperatures 10 K, 100 K and 300 K (the...

In recent monolayer measurements, we have developed models for obtaining detailed structural information of phospholipid structures. The models employ a 'quasimolecular'...

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are essential dietary fats that have been proposed to reduce the risk of cardiovascular and auto-immune diseases, arthritis and cancer. PUFA...

Welding-induced distortions and residual stresses of structural components can result in significant increase in manufacturing costs and then limit the development of innovative...

Spin ice materials are a class of compounds with exotic magnetic properties, resulting from the frustration. Magnetic monopoles have been detected at low temperature; manifest...

YbPd crystallizes in the cubic CsCl-type structure and reported to have magnetically ordered ground state with the mixed valence of the Yb ion. Further, it under goes through...

One important structural application of oxide glasses is for nuclear waste immobilisation. Recent reports have highlighted the possibility of iron phosphate glasses as an...

We request 8 days on IRIS to study the diffusion of adsorbed H2 gas and C2-hydrocarbons molecules within a gated indium-based porous metal-organic framework (MOF) as a function...

Building on our preliminary neutron transmission results from the CRISP instrument (see below), we propose to undertake a detailed study of critical fluctuations in 3He near its...

We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked...

We request 6 days on IRIS to study the diffusion of adsorbed H2 gas molecules within a porous aluminium-based metal-organic framework (MOF) as a function of gas loading and...

We propose to study off-specular polarised neutron reflectivity from an array of CoFeB nanostructures. Many groups use Permalloy to form these types of nanostructures, however,...

We aim to use total scattering and pair distribution function (PDF) analysis to determine the local structure of the disordered amide-borohydride, Na2BH4NH2. We wish to...

Graphene is a very promising material and appears particularly suitable in order to develop efficient hydrogen storage systems, especially if it is ¿decorated¿ with proper metal...

The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents that can circumvent the pathogens¿...

Nearly 40% of new chemical entries are poorly water-soluble. Drug encapsulation into water-soluble polymers is an active research area owing to the ability of improving drug...

Grade 91 pipes and tubes have become a standard material for the design of new and refurbishment of existing Power Plants. Several major failures have been encountered after...
