In recent years, the research related to agricultural wastes aiming to evaluate their potential for recycling as well as the elimination of the landfills increased dramatically....

It is a great interest of research to explore the superconductivity in 111-family superconductor with strong spin orbit-interaction. In this proposal we wish to investigate role...

We request 3 days of beamtime on GEM to attempt to perform neutron diffraction on helium inside vitreous SiO2. Significant amounts of helium can be dissolved into the glass...

Q&P heat-treatments typically consist of an ¿Austenitisation - Interrupted Quench ¿ Partition ¿ Final Quench¿ heat treatment process. During the partitioning stage carbon...

Strong magnets with a high energy product are vital when optimizing the efficiency in the electricindustry. This can be achieved by making spring-exchange coupled magnets....

Nuclear power generation plants undergo start-up/shut-down load-temperature cycles during normal service operation. Components operating at temperatures in the creep regime can...

On exposure to ammonia, Li(11)BD4 forms the ammoniate Li(11)BD4(ND3)n. Our recent experiment (RB820252) has shown that there are four distinct crystalline phases in the...

Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have attracted broad attention for various applications because they are relatively cheap, environmentally friendly and can easily be scaled-up....

This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure structure of LaCoO3 and observing changes within this as the material undergoes some well...

Bonded crack retarders are a novel technology for providing improved damage tolerance in aerospace structures. They can be applied either where mechanical fastening is being...

Spin echo small-angle neutron scattering (SESANS) beamtime is requested to study the growth of polymer nanolatices in novel microemulsion systems. The natural incompatibility of...

This proposal sets out to investigate the high pressure behaviour of the double perovskitematerial with the chemical formula La2NiMnO6. The properties of this and related...

The bilayer ruthenate Sr3Ru2O7 is the first material found to have a quantum critical end-point and is believed to display ¿nematic electronic order¿. We have previously studied...

Topological insulators are one of the most important recent discoveries in condensed matter physics. The topological surface state can become gapped when ferromagnetic order is...

It is proposed to investigate the torsional dynamics of the ¿NH3+ group of glycine-d2 in its three polymorphic forms using quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS). This study is...

We propose muSR studies on superfluid density in the overdoped La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO). The Hayden group (Bristol) has been growing high-quality LSCO single crystals, and performed...

In this work we will investigate how the magnetic properties of nanometer thick iron-oxide films can be manipulated by heating them in air. Our preliminary results indicate that...

Neutron diffraction offers one of the most interesting and meaningful methods for non destructive quantitative determination of the phase composition of materials. However, it...

This proposal continues our studies of water and small molecule binding around surfactant micelles using NIMROD, to obtain previously inaccessible details of their molecular...

The material to be studied is nuclear graphite used in the core of the Gas-cooled Reactors in the UK. It is a non-replaceable component and therefore life-limiting. During...
