Investigation of the Dynamic Mechanism of Reflectin Color Change by QENS
Reflectin, so named because of its high refractive index, is a protein expressed exclusively in cephalopods and forms reflectors responsible for dynamic iridescence and... -
Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering of Green Dioptase to Unravel the Motion of t...
Green dioptase is a naturally occurring mineral, that has a deep green colour, similar to that of an emerald, and with a chemical formula of CuSiO3.H2O. The Cu lies in quasi-1D... -
Dynamical Transitions in the Ogg Glasses
We request 4 days on IRIS to study the temperature dependance of the structural dynamics in amorphous sodium-ammonia (Na-NH3). This will be the first investigation of the... -
Neutron Scattering, Agricultural Wastes, Concrete & Water mobility: What can ...
In recent years, the research related to agricultural wastes aiming to evaluate their potential for recycling as well as the elimination of the landfills increased dramatically.... -
Spin dynamics of the Mn12 prototype nanomagnet fully unravelled by 4-dimensio...
Mn12, with an anisotropy barrier close to 65 K, has been for 20 years a prototype nanomagnet, but in spite of a number of investigations the actual link between the value of the... -
Solvation structure of propane/propene in [C4mim][NTf2] ionic liquid - II
There are great energy costs associated with the separation of the light olefins (ethylene and propylene) from mixed hydrocarbon gas feeds. These olefins (obtained from natural... -
Thermal expansion and simultaneous Raman spectroscopy of methanol ammoniates,...
We have recently determined the structures of methanol-monoammoniate, and Me-hemiammoniate from neutron powder data. These are found to have different degrees of C-H...O... -
Does elastic twinning play a role in the thermal expansion behaviour of polyc...
We request two days of beam-time on POLARIS to obtain high resolution measurements of the thermal expansion of dolomite [CaMg(CO3)2]. The experiment forms part of a larger... -
Is Zeolite Deactivation Through Pore Blocking?
Zeolites are porous framework materials that have active catalytic sites inside narrow channels. Unwanted reactions create coke in the pores which may block access to the active... -
Amorphous Micrometre-Sized Water Ice Particles for Planetary Science Experime...
We request 5 days on NIMROD to characterise the pressure and temperature dependent properties of amorphous icy particles generated in liquid ethane, as they will be used in... -
Inelastic Measurements of a Frustration Stabilised 1D Ordered Magnetic State
Magnetic chains are playgrounds for unconventional physics but emergence of 1D order in cannonical systems is associated with full 3D magnetic order. Uniquely, below 1.6 K,... -
Investigating the diffusion of cyclic oximes in hierarchically-porous catalys...
Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical precursor to nylon-6. On an industrial scale an aggressive liquid-acid catalyst is used to transform C6-oxime to CL. Due to... -
Disrupting structural correlations in the Na-Ca-NH3 system
Na or Ca, when dissolved in ammonia, yield metallic liquids. These liquids are fully miscible and yet each possesses a different intermediate-range order depending on the parent... -

Phase Separation in NaTaO3. Can it be controlled by pressure?
The present proposal seeks to establish the pressure dependence of the Pbnm-Cmcm transition in NaTaO3 and some doped variants thereof. It aims to understand the understand the... -
COMBINED QUASI-ELASTIC NEUTRON SCATTERING AND SR-INFRARED MICROSPECTROSCOPY F...
This is a joint ISIS/DLS proposal Quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) and SR-Infrared microspectroscopy (SR-IRMS) are coupled to probe the impact of a Pd(II) anticancer... -
Catalysis in Hydrogen-Bond Rich Porous Organic Materials
Hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) interactions are essential in biological and chemical processes, particularly in reactions catalysed by enzymes and small-molecule catalysts.... -
Correlation of structures, compositions and magnetism of copper-deficient lay...
This is part of a larger experiment which will investigate three related systems which contain copper deficient anti-fluorite-type copper sulfide layers. The overall aim is to... -
Thermal equations of state for kyanite, andalusite and sillimanite
The three Al-silicate polymorphs, kyanite, andalusite and sillimanite, are well-known geological markers used to determine the extent of P- and T-induced metamorphism... -
Structure Direction from Electrons in the Presence of the 'Alkalide Option': ...
We request 5 days on SANDALS to investigate the structural effect of expanded metals in the LiNa-MeNH2 system at three different concentrations. The interplay between...
