To the best of our knowledge, there is no previous work on using muons to measure photo-excited states in organic semiconductors or related materials. Our photo-excitation ideas...

Neutron Compton scattering (NCS) results will be obtained from the two super proton conductors (H3O)SbTeO6 and Rb3H(SO4)2, both powders. To facilitate direct comparison of...

Intermediate strength hydrogen bonds, H-bonds, are known to play a role in the reactions of surface bound species, especially on the widely used industrial substrate...

We request 2 days on GEM in conjunction with the IGAn apparatus to investigate the formation of lithium amide (LiNH2) from the interaction of Li3N with ammonia (ND3), and the...

Shiomi et al. have prepared a nitronyl nitroxide radical-based compound which has a chiral packing of the molecular units. This is the first discovery of a purely organic chiral...

The Mariana Trench is one of the most famous extreme environment on our planet. Salinity is around 35 g salts per one kg of water at temperatures ranging from 274 K to 277 K ,...

Gram negative bacteria cause a wide range of diseases. Colicins are protein toxins capable of penetrating the outer membrane barrier and killing the bacteria. Thus they...

Single molecule magnetism is a low temperature phenomenon. Even though there have been thousands of papers published in the area, there are no structural data at all for any...

We request beamtime to study lithium silicate glasses over a very wide composition range from 20 to 65 mol.% Li2O, made by rapid quenching. For the higher Li2O contents, the...

Ammonia Borane (AB), NH3BH3, was first synthesised in the 1950s and has now become the focus of a world wide research program with regards to its potential as a hydrogen store....

NiSi is a technologically important material that is also of interest to Earth Scientists because of the possible role of Ni and Si in the Earth¿s core. It crystallises in the...

Shale swelling is particularly problematic in the oil and gas exploration sector, as environmentally friendly water based muds are invariably used during drilling operations to...

The long period cycloid in multiferroic BiFeO3 influences the potential applications of this material and it has been shown that doping (with La and Mn) enlarges the cycloid...

This proposal aims to investigate the structure of ceramide, an important component of cellular membranes in a mimic membrane environment. After assessment of this molecule in...

Metal-organic framework materials are a topical family of nanoporous solids that have potential applications in molecular storage, separation and catalysis. This includes the...

Over the last 4-5 years the research team have been developing INS methodology that can be applied to investigate Fe Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) catalysts. The first stage of that...

Studying surfactant and mixed surfactant adsorption on model solid surfaces, which mimic real surfaces such as fabrics, hair and skin, is starting to provide a real insight into...

This proposal will enable us to study the dynamics of an important water soluble pesticide molecule, paraquat, in solution and in the interlayer region of swelling...

The pharmaceutical industry has been described as being 'in a period of crisis' as the number of drug approvals relative to most major pharmaceutical companies Research and...

Progress in the development of nano-sized hybrid therapeutics and nano-sized drug delivery systems - "nanomedicines" - over the last decade has been remarkable. One key...
