Magnetoelectric multiferroics have been recently the focus of a significant research effort. The experiment that we propose explores a new class of "magnetochiral" systems,...

Influenza virus is a pathogen of great medical importance that causes seasonal epidemics and sporadic pandemics. Among the least understood events of the influenza virus...

Short peptide sequences such as KLVFFAE form well defined beta sheet structures. Their further templating through hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding is the principal...

Abstract: Apatites (general formula Ca5(PO4)3(OH,F,Cl)) are suitable materials for nuclear waste remediation and storage because they can incorporate actinides in their...

In a previous experiment (RB910492) we have made preliminary measurements of the rates of addition of muonium to vitamins C and E, as suggested by the ISIS panel. These rates...

Lipopeptide surfactants are highly effective at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a general lack of understanding of the relationship between their molecular...

This proposal is to perform further SANS contrast measurements on three protein/DNA interactions currently worked on at the Research Complex at Harwell. This is part of an...

Multiferroics of spin origin, for which magnetic long-range order and electric polarization occur simultaneously, have attracted considerable interest. The strong coupling...

We have recently carried out an inelastic neutron scattering experiment at LET in order to investigate the excitations in the quantum spin ice Yb2Ti2O7. The single crystal...

Establishing the post-mortem interval (PMI) is often the primary objective in forensic investigations.Whilst various techniques for PMI estimation in terrestrial environments...

We propose to study a layered oxide in which chromium cations describe a triangular array. Itseems us that no magnetic data are reported up to now for this alpha-CaCr2O4...
