Aluminum based complex hydrides are interested in hydrogen storage materials. In the complex hydrides, Na3AlH6, CaAlH5 and AlH3 have a common crystallographic feature with AlH6...

Amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) is regularly listed as one of the known calcium carbonate phases, first being identified in 1984. Although ACC is inherently unstable, it is a...

We request 9 days on TOSCA to study the interaction of adsorbed SO2 and NO2 gas molecules with a porous aluminium-based metal-organic framework (MOF) as a function of gas...

Amine-functionalised poly(alkylene oxides) are used extensively as swelling inhibitors in water-based drilling fluids. This study will broaden our understanding of the mechanism...

pH-responsive polymer brushes comprise of long polymer chains of either a weak acid or base chemically attached to a surface. Depending upon the degree of ionisation along the...

It is proposed to use neutron reflectometry to study surface-induced nano-stratification of 3He-4He mixtures in the ultra-low temperature limit. The experiment promises to...

Here we propose to study the Janus character of self-assembled amphiphilic nanoparticles. For that amphiphilic core-shell nanoparticles will be synthesized with a surface...

Studying the sword forging techniques, and its evolution with time, is one of the most interesting topics in the analysis of the Japanese blade forging methodology. In that...

We propose to use MERLIN to examine the full magnetic excitation spectrum Chi¿(q,w) of optimally doped Fe based superconductor BaFe1.84Co0.16As2. The primary goal of this...

In typical odontological studies water sorption in the restoration material is determined by weighing freshly mixed cement at regular intervals. In the case of resin-modified...

Although graphite and hexagonal boron nitride lie at the heart of many technological applications, their accurate theoretical description using density-functional-theory-based...

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...

We have synthesised a novel material IrSr2Sm1.15Ce0.85Cu2O10 . Preliminary magnetic measurements evidence two magnetic transitions at Tc = 125 K and TM2= 6 K. Above Tc however...

We propose to investigate in-vivo cell membrane structure of gram-positive (B. subtilis) and gram-negative (S. oneidensis) bacteria adhered to a silicon oxide surface using...

Neutron spin resonance mode is a common feature in different classes of magnetic superconductors; nonetheless, the microscopic origin of the mode is still unclear. In general,...

We have investigated the magnetic structure and crystal field excitations (CEF) of CeT2Al10 (T=Os and Ru). The observed magnetic moment along the c-axis does not agree with that...

The aim of the experiment is to monitor the temporal evolution of gamma prime precipitates in three polycrystalline nickel base superalloys using Sans2D. This instrument is...

DNA is a versatile building material for nanotechnology. We have recently studied a surface-tethered single-domain DNA motor by neutron reflection (IR) for the first time. We...

In our previous experiments we have investigated the surface properties of liquid 3He - 4He mixtures by neutron reflection. We have shown that in broad temperature range there...

We discovered a new compound YbCu4Ga8 and the available laboratory single crystal data shows that it crystallizes in the tetragonal system. The asymmetric unit contains one Yb...
