Muon probes of hydrogen-bond network in supercooled water
Muon diamagnetic fraction in liquid water is known to decrease with decreasing temperature probably because its formation mechanism results from the structural alternation and... -
Texture memory and variant selection for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys
The proposed experiment will focus on determining the level of texture memory and variant selection on both heating and cooling for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys with... -
Continuation: In situ neutron diffractometry of single crystal superalloys
We propose to carry out in-situ neutron diffractometry on testpieces of a latest-generation single crystal superalloy. This work is in support of current EPSRC projects... -
Probing the products of free radical reactions in ionic liquids
Many room temperature ionic liquids (salts with melting points near room temperature that hereafter will be referred to as ionic liquids) are ¿green solvents¿ for chemical... -
Insight into the atomic and intermediate level structure of spherical and rod...
Here we propose to look at the structure of two phosphocholine lipids, and their larger scale structures in aqueous solution. Depending on the length of the fatty acid chain in... -
Water-based gels of half N-acetylated chitosans; potential pharmaceutical exc...
These experiments are part of a much broader programme at the University of Reading. focused on the use of water-soluble half-acetylated chitosan as a mucoadhesive polymer,... -
Thermal ionization of bond-centred muonium in diamond
Our previous LF-µSR measurements in natural type Ia single crystal diamond showed some evidence of the ionization of bond-centred muonium (MuBC) from around 1000K. This was... -
Nano-scale free volume and encapsulation properties of biopolymers: opening i...
Edible biopolymers are routinely used in the encapsulation and controlled release of bioactive ingredients (e.g. medicines, nutrients, flavours). Common encapsulants are in... -
Investigation of cross talk level among an array of thermal neutron counters ...
The research and development of new detection devices is a key issue to be addressed in neutron scattering due to the lack of 3He worldwide. Neutron radiative capture in heavy... -
Simultaneous INS and Raman studies of lysozyme
The proposers have obtained a dispersive Raman spectrometer that is fibre optically coupled to a custom centrestick that will allow simultaneous Raman and neutron measurements.... -
Muonium Defect Levels in 4H Silicon Carbide
We propose to obtain the temperature dependence of the diamagnetic spin-precession amplitudes up to 1100 K for the three electrical types of 4H-SiC in order to extract the Mu... -
Proton mobility in Solid Super Proton Conductor (H3O)SbTeO6 at controlled hum...
Super proton conductors are in the focus of interest because of their use in low temperature fuel cells. In this project we try to obtain information on proton mobility,... -
4f electronic states of the filled skutterudite compound PrFe4Sb12 synthesize...
Crystals of the filled skutterudite PrFe4Sb12 with the 73~87% Pr-site filling fractions prepared under ambient pressure show some magnetic ordering around 5 K and their... -
Study of the multi-gap phenomena in SrTiO$_3$
We intend to perform the magnetic field penetration depth \lambda measurements on theoxygen reduced and Nb-doped SrTiO_3 -- the first oxide superconductors where two-gap... -
X-ray Radiation damage to DNA at the atomic level
The interaction of ionizing radiation such as X-rays with biological samples causes damage to the samples. Recent work from our group with various protein crystals, peptides and... -
Muon probed level crossing resonance in a Holmium polyoxometallate single ion...
The magnetic properties of a Holmium single ion magnetic system will be studied using implanted muons. The system is based on a polyoxometallate cluster ion that provides good...
