Hydration and sweetness of synthetic sweeteners
Recently, the degree of sweetness of natural sugars has been associated and correlated to their hydration shell (strength, orientation and length of their hydrogen bonds with... -
The structure of metal-ammonia Ogg glasses
In this application we will conduct the first detailed study of the structure of glassy metal-ammonia systems ? so-called Ogg glasses, named after the person who first proposed... -
Fragile to strong transition in concentrated sorbitol-water solutions
In a recent paper [J. Phys. Chem. B, 2016, 120 (29), pp 72897296] we have put forward the idea that water in concentrated (70 wt%) sorbitol-water solutions becomes confined by... -
Neutron diffraction of amorphous FePO4 and LiFePO4
We are convinced that a careful study of the atomic structure of a-FePO4 would provide very interesting insights into several phosphate systems, including phosphate glass... -

This project aims to study the confinement of phenyl acetylene in the pores of mesoporous titania catalysts for the conversion into styrene. Specifically, neutron scattering... -
Excitations, BEC, and partially ordered states of liquid 4He in disorder
We propose measurements of the elementary phonon-roton (p-r) excitations of liquid 4He confined in porous MCM-41 (45 Å pore diameter) at wave vectors Q ¿ beyond the roton¿, 2.4... -
Structural behaviour of gallium in phosphate glasses for bone cements
Bone cements are an important class of biomaterial used in hard tissue surgery as well as periodontology. Many of these are glass-ionomer cements formed from an aluminosilicate... -
Investigating the structure of novel zinc and magnesium doped bioactive glasses
A range of novel bioactive glasses containing zinc and magnesium have recently been developed for dental and orthopaedic applications. At present little is known about the... -
The origin of the dissolution of cellulose in alkali/urea aqueous solution
