Interplay of magnetism and superconductivity in the iron-based spin ladder Ba...
Iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) have been an essential research area in condensed matter physics. Spins of iron sites forming a long periodic configuration, called the... -
Modulation in Molecular Materials - Variable Temperature
Modulation occurs when there is ordering on two (or more) length scales. When the ratio of these is an integer, the modulation is said to be commensurate, i.e. one ordering is... -
Universal Quantum-Critical Dynamics of a Two Dimensional Antiferromagnet
We have recently discovered a pressure-induced quantum phase transition (QPT) at 4.3 kbar in the gapped quantum magnet piperazinium hexachlorodicuprate (PHCC) by means of... -
The structure of methane water fluid mixtures at high pressure
We have recently discovered that above 2 GPa in the liquid/fluid forms water and methanebecome miscible in proportions up to 33 mole% of methane. This proposal is for time to... -

Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -
Inter-phase load partitioning in a directionally-solidified Cr-Cr3Si eutectic
In situ composite materials based upon refractory metal - silicide eutectics are being considered for high temperature structural applications. These materials derive their high... -
In-Situ Studies of Alternative Mobile-Ions for High-Temperature Thermal Batte...
Whilst rechargeable batteries continue to take over the consumer electronics market, they are unsuitable to replace specific battery technologies, such as the thermal battery,... -
Unravelling the ageing mechanims of dry seeds: molecular mobility within biol...
Faster-than-expected ageing is observed in some seeds (e.g. orchids, coffee, citrus, willows) stored dry at -20°C, the standard temperatures of seed banks. This ageing has been... -
Dental Cements and Inelastic Neutron Scattering: Meeting the Challenges of To...
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... -
Unstressed lattice parameter studies for weld residual stress determination
This study addresses the need to improve the reliability of measurements of weld residual stress; particularly for the type of welds used within the nuclear power industry. Such... -
Configurational and displacive disorder in the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Cubic cadmium(II) cyanide shows the most pronounced isotropic NTE effect known, with behaviour more than twice as extreme as that of better known materials such as ZrW2O8. This... -
In-situ lattice parameter and misfit analysis of a forged nickel-based supera...
Nickel-based superalloys have excellent high-temperature properties due to the dispersion of stronger precipitates in matrix. The properties are significantly affected by the... -
Structure of Molecular Hydrogen in High Charge Pillared Clays
In this proposal we aim to study low temperature structure of hydrogen in the interlayer region of partially hydrated pillared clays. There are linked dual motivations for this... -
An in situ study of structural and magnetic order in LaSrCoFeO6-x
LaSrCoFeO6 is a rhombohedral perovskite, and can be reduced to the orthorhombic brownmillerite LaSrCoFeO5 in reducing atmospheres at around 600 deg C. This material is air... -
Neutron inelastic scattering of the possible quantum spin ice state of Nd2Zr2...
Nd2Zr2O7 is a new candidate for quantum spin ice proposed theoretically. It has a well-isolated dipolar-octupolar doublet with Ising anisotropy as the crystal field ground state... -
Concentrated emulsions as proxy CO2 thickeners
The proposal aims to explore the oil-in-water (brine) high internal phase emulsion systems (HIPEs) formed by nonylphenol ethoxylate surfactants using contrast variation SANS... -
Sensing SO2 in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Microwave Dielect...
We seek to develop new MOFs for sensing and removal of toxic gases (e.g., SO2) and request 4 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
Neutron reflectivity of self-assembled Janus Nanoparticles
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... -
Micro-, Meso-, Macro- Structure and Dynamics of Biocompatible Dental Glass Io...
Glass Ionomer Cements (GICs) have found numerous applications as bone fillers, replacements and adhesives, particularly in dentistry due to their tooth like appearance and...
