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... -
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,... -
Porosity Analysis in Suspension Thermal Sprayed YSZ Coatings using Spin-Echo ...
Suspension thermal spraying (STS) techniques enable the use of sub-micron powder particles as feedstock, as opposed to the traditional use of dry powders with micrometric size,... -
High Pressure Behaviour of Benzene
The interactions between benzene molecules in the solid phase is of fundamental interest. Benzene is often used as a model system for structure prediction methodologies and... -
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... -
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... -
Effects of pH and ionic strength on stability and structure of lipid-polymer ...
Nanostructured lipid aggregates offer enormous potential as tools for membrane structural biology and biophysics. Styrene-Maleic Acid Lipid Particles have a number of attractive... -
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... -
Investigation of ambient temperature polarity and magnetism in the ternary so...
Pb-based materials such as PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT) are widely used as transducers, actuators and sensors in a range of modern technologies due to their excellent piezoelectric and... -
In-situ Thermoelectric Measurements of Copper Iron Sulphides
Thermoelectric devices are capable of converting thermal energy directly into electrical energy. Large-scale applications of the technology requires materials that are composed... -
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... -
Lattice dynamics of ice XVII filled with monatomic and diatomic gases
The discovery of metastable ice XVII, which has a porous structure, suitable to be filled with hydrogen and other gases, has prompted our group to measure on TOSCA neutron... -
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... -
Pressure effect on stable and metastable structural phases in geometrically f...
Geometrically frustrated antiferromagnet LuBaCo4O7 exhibits unusual competition between two low-temperature phases with orthorhombic and monoclinic symmetry. Depending on... -
Simltaneous dielectric spectroscopy and neutron diffraction
We have constructed a novel microwave frequency resonator that can sit within the GEM and POLARIS diffractometers and will allow us to simultaneously collect diffraction and... -
Low temperature phases of WO3 a reinvestigation
WO3 is an important technological material with wide usage in gas-sensing devices but its low temperature phases are still mysterious. There are conflicting reports in the... -
Formation and ammonia decomposition behaviour of lithium nitride hydride
Ammonia is seen as a key part of the transition to a sustainable energy economy, but needs decomposition catalysts to release its stored hydrogen. Lithium nitride-hydride... -
Crystal and magnetic structures of mixed-valent V2OPO4
The electronic states of transition metal oxides usually result from a coupling between the three degrees of freedom: charge, orbital and spin states. When metal-metal distances... -
Test of an array of new thermal and resonance neutron detectors
The R&D activity on neutron detectors is strategic and instrumental for the development of reliable application of the neutron techniques. We propose to use two equal... -
