Damages in DNA are known to be a root cause to numerous diseases that lead to ageing. Methylation is a type of DNA damage that occurs at high level in the brain tissue and...

Recently, our view of the Earth¿s lower mantle changed dramatically. It had been thought that two major phases were present throughout all of the lower mantle:...

The main target of the proposal is to determine the magnetic phase diagram of multi-ferroic compound TbMnO3 in extremely high magnetic fields around 30 T by using a pulsed...

beta-Mn metal is a good example of metal close to a magnetic/non-magnetic instability. It doesn't order magnetically at any temperature, and yet has a large Somerfeld constant,...

We propose a comparative study of the high-frequency optic-like mode and Boson peak modes observed in the vibrational density of states (DOS) in the glass phase of the two model...

There has been much research into the recently discovered iron based superconductors, but so far only the magnetic excitations at low energy have been investigated. We propose...

Despite the insight provided by the ab initio approach, there still remain some important questions concerning the hydrogen insertion in new hydrogen storage systems,...

We propose a high-resolution powder neutron diffraction study of the archetypal donor-acceptor complexes (CD3)3N...I2; (CD3)3N...ICl; C5D5N¿ICl; and C5D5N¿IBr. These are the...

Electrical steels (ES) used in motors and transformers. The major challenge is to optimise the magnetic property of ES to reduce energy waste during service. The...

In our recent experiments on MERLIN we have established that the spin excitations in Fe(Se,Te) emanating from incommensurate positions near (0.5 0.5 0) extends at least to 250...

Recently, our view of the Earth¿s lower mantle changed dramatically. It had been thought that two major phases were present throughout all of the lower mantle:...

Cyclic peptides with alternating side chain stereochemistry are capable of self-assembling into long nanotubes. The conjugation of polymers to these peptides renders the...

This application seeks to discover whether the catalyst handling protocols refined for INS measurements of a variety of heterogeneous catalytic systems can be further exploited...

We have observed an anomalous monotonically increasing longitudinal field relaxation rate in LiY_(1-x)Ho_xF_4 for applied fields above 1000 G (along the c-axis) and at a...

The behavior of inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) with biological interfaces is a key research topic, to boost Nanomedicine development. In this respect, 2D lipid assemblies are...

A cell membrane can contain hundreds of different lipid molecules, but our understanding of the dynamics of cell membranes is very limited. As a result of a collaboration...

The archetype chiral system MnSi belongs to the family of non-centrosymmetric cubic helimagnets where a helimagnetic ordering exists below the critical temperature of 29 K. This...

Approved proposal under the ICRD Scheme Proposal ICRD0007

We propose to study the pressure-dependence of the crystal structure of the alkaline earth copper phyllo-decaoxotetrasilicate Ba0.5Sr0.5CuSi4O10 to compliment our earlier...

The crystal and magnetic structures of two substituted variants of the multiferroic phase BiFeO3 will be studied as a function of pressure. Both Bi0.8La0.2FeO3 and...
