Quasielastic Neutron Spectroscopy of Ammonium Borohydride
We ask for 7 days on IRIS to study the quasielastic scattering in ammonium borohydride (NH4BH4). Using enriched ND4 and BD4, we aim to separate out the difference rotational and... -
Investigations of amorphous pharmaceutical materials produced from different ...
Pharmaceuticals are usually formulated in the crystalline state for obvious reasons of stability. They may also exist in a disordered and less cohesive state i.e. amorphous... -
Dynamics of PDMS-g-PDMS bottlebrush polymers
Bottlebrush polymers, backbone with long side chains, are very interesting regarding their architecture, which is different from well known linear polymers. Not only the... -
Universal dynamics in liquid metals?
The dynamics of liquid aluminium will be measured at the structure factor maximum up to twice the melting temperature. We are searching for changes in dynamics which should... -
Magnetic excitations in the S=1/2 ferromagnetic semiconductor Lu2V2O7
Lu2V2O7 is a rare example of an S=1/2 pyrochlore. The fact that it is a ferromagnet with Tc=70 K belies the fact that it has some truly remarkable properties. These include the... -
Low energy fluctuations near quantum criticality in CeRh6(Ge1􀀀xSix)4
In Ce-based heavy fermion materials, there is competition between the interactions which lead to a magnetically ordered arrangement of the Ce magnetic moments, and the... -
Correlation between local dynamics and shape of SDS micelles:QENS study
Fast segmental dynamics of surfactants in rod-like assemblies and their correlation with microstructure is not very well understood although the structure and macroscopic... -
Magnetic energy levels of the tridiminished-icosahedron magnetic molecule {Fe9}
We propose to conduct inelastic neutron scattering measurements on a deuterated polycrystalline sample of the {Fe9} molecule [(Fe9-3-O)4 (O3PPh)3(O2CCMe3)13] to... -
Characterisation of tunnelling modes of adsorbed methoxy on eta-alumina
Our previous proposal strongly suggested that the methyl groups of adsorbed methoxy on eta-alumina do exhibit tunnelling. This application aims to provide additional evidence to... -
Magnetic Excitations in Magnetic Molecule {Mo214V30}
We propose to conduct inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements on deuterated polycrystalline samples of the magnetic molecule {Mo214V30}, to determine the low-lying... -
Modifications to the phonon spectrum of nanocomposite thermoelectrics
Here we propose to use the superior energy resolution of OSIRIS to measure the phonon desnity of states (PDOS) of both nanocomposite and bulk thermoelectric alloys of Si1-xGex.... -
Low-energy excitations of the quantum critical S=1/2 ladder material Ba2CuTeO6
Ba2CuTeO6 is a newly discovered S=1/2 spin ladder material thought to be uniquely close to the theoretically predicted quantum critical point of the coupled two-leg spin ladder...
