Improved lignin conversion via selective cleavage of interunit C-C bonds to m...
We request 9 days on TOSCA to carry out inelastic neutron scattering (INS) studies of the adsorption, activation and reaction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (lignin models)... -
Defect perturbation of the rotational states of NH4 in octahedral environments
The (NH4)0.02 Rbx K0.98-x I system offers advantages for the systematic study of tunnelling species and how they interact. Currently there are two models to explain the dynamics... -

Phase behaviour of methane clathrate under conditions relevant to Titan's int...
Methane clathrates are likely to be an important constituent of icy satellite interiors and a source of methane in the atmosphere of Saturn's giant satellite Titan. There is... -
Incommensurate magnetic fluctuation in KFe2As2
The debate whether interband or intraband scattering is crucial for Fe-based superconductors is not settled down yet. Investigation a system with completely missing electron... -
Low-energy magnetic excitations in the superconducting state of Sr2RuO4: open...
We propose to study the magnetic fluctuations of the unconventional superconductor Sr2RuO4 in the superconducting state extending our previous experiments on a cold triple-axis... -
The location of an essential ceramide for skin barrier function within the lo...
The body is protected from the external environment by the stratum corneum (SC) layer of the skin. It is believed that the lamellar lipid matrix, which encases the corneocytes,... -
INS Studies of Porous Metal-Organic Framework Materials for Ammonia Storage
The development of new porous MOFs is receiving considerable attention worldwide owing to their potential for gas storage, separation, and purification. We seek to develop a... -
The electronic structures of the ground-state open-shell singlet di-radical m...
The di-radical (DR) that has an open-shell ground-state singlet, and an excited-state triplet, with a rather small energy gap between, has shown its outstanding performance in... -
Neutron spectroscopy of a series of Ruthenium triangles: a new possible route...
Most of our technology is based on the use of charge, however the electron also has another less well-understood (or exploited) property called spin. The application of this... -
Towards an improved understanding of the active phase of iron based Fischer-T...
The applicants have recently completed a series of INS studies on a model iron Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. That work established that different sample pre-treatments could... -

Study of chronic mercury exposure in ancient populations from the cinnabar mi...
Cinnabar is a natural mercury sulfide (HgS) mineral mined from the ancient past for use as a red pigment for body paint and ceramics, in jewellery-making and in medicinal... -
Catalytic Hydrodeoxygenation of a Lignin Model Compound - TOSCA
Bio-oil can be obtained from the pyrolysis of biomass and maintains a closed carbon cycle with no net increase in atmospheric CO2 level, making the environment cleaner. However,... -
INS Evaluations of the Interactions of Mustard Gas Mimetics and Decomposition...
The decontamination of chemical weapons is a subject of intense political and scientific scrutiny. Copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles (NP) have proven efficiency in the safe... -

Determination of muon stopping sites and electronic structures in proteins
In order to explore the electron-transfer process in life science, we have been carrying out muSR studies based upon electron labeling mechanisms on a protein, cytochrome c,... -
Temperature dependence of spin dynamics near quantum criticality in an Ising ...
This proposal is part of our research programme to explore the interplay of thermal and quantum fluctuations near zero-temperature quantum phase transitions. Here we plan to use...
