The proposed experiment is addressed to use the MARI spectrometer to study the thermal denaturation process of the psychrophile enzyme alpha-amylase in presence of bioprotectant...

Recent work on self assembling monolayers with diisocyano linkages have shown their great potential for application to photovoltaics. The next step is to determine the...

We request 5 days on Sandals to study the interactions of the neurotransmitters dopamine, L-dihydroxyphenylalanine and norepinephrine in aqueous solution. The interactions of...

The aim of this study is to elucidate the crystal structures of a series of microporous tin silicate materials after different degrees of ion exchange with strontium. The...

The combination of magnetic frustration and low magnetic moment leads to non-classical magnetic behaviour such as spin liquid states. We have prepared polycrystalline samples of...

We propose to study the formation of lateral features during insulin amyloid formation on polymer substrates using off-specular neutron reflectivity. This will be done by...

We ask for 3 days of beam time on Inter/SURF to study the adsorption and adlayer characteristics of avidin on Ti surfaces, relevant for biomedical applications, such as...

The structure of the novel pure silica zeolite ITQ-45 has been recently determined in our laboratory. However, although it appears to be a fully connected framework, 29Si NMR...

Metal fluoride materials, through the use nanocomposites, recently appear as potential candidates as next generation high energy density positive electrodes for Li-ion...

We aim at studying the interface between a ferromagnetic (FM) thin film and a topological insulator (TI). For accessing the spin-polarised state in a TI system via current...

We propose a MuSR study of the magnetism in Mn-doped ZnGeP2 during this round of experiments using muon spin depolarization measurements in a longitudinal magnetic field. This...

The recent discovery of the iron arsenide family of layered superconductors RFeAsO1-xFx and AFe2As2 with transition temperature up to 52K has generated tremendous interest as...

We request 3 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus, to perform in-situ neutron diffraction and thermogravimetric studies of the decomposition of deuterated alkaline amidoboranes....

We propose to use the new SANS2d to study the dynamic structural evolution in the couse of the formation of DNA-cationic polymer complexes. The dynamic process and the mixing...

Hydrogen Peroxide is one of the cleanest, most versatile strategic base chemicals available. It is used at the large scale as oxidising agent in the chemical industry, as a...

(RB1010481) Neutron Compton Scattering, experiments were done on samples of poly-N-isopropylacrylamide dissolved in D2O, CH3OD and a mix of both solvents. This is of interest...

At ambient pressure TiCl4 forms a molecular solid consisting of isolated TiCl4 molecules (phase-I). At 0.5 GPa this structure undergoes a transition to phase-II, which is...

This proposal seeks to conduct total-scattering studies on thallium and caesium azides to investigate the effect of temperature on the atomic motions, particularly of the azide...

A new ferritic superalloy, which exhibits coherent coplanar ordered nanoscale (Ni,Fe)Al B2-type precipitates analogue to the Ni-based superalloy, has been fabricated and shown...

In this proposal we propose to investigate the detailed superconducting properties of the non-centosymmetric superconducting compound alpha-BiPd. Though this compound is...
