Investigation of asphaltene nanoaggregate size under conditions of CO2 reserv...
The asphaltene fraction of crude oil is defined by its solubility parameters (insoluble in n-heptanebut soluble in toluene). Changes in conditions (temperature, pressure,... -
SANS Investigation on Packing Structure of Proteasome Activator 28
Proteasome plays an important role in the processing of antigenenic proteins for presentation by the MHC class I pathway. PA28 is an activator of the 20S proteasome, a large... -
Non-destructive investigation of pottery finds from Vörs-Máriaasszonysziget
The present application focuses on the determination of possible differences in pottery production methods during the Neolithic Period . Samples of coarse grain temper (organic... -
IINS investigation of magnesium hydride in nanoscale confinement
In this experiment MgH_2 impregnated into active carbon will be investigated through IINS. Since it is known that the enthalpy of formation of a material is lowered by... -
SE-SANS investigation of natural shale swelling under oil-well conditions
Water-based drilling fluids are increasingly being used for oil and gas exploration. Unfortunately, their use leads to clay swelling which occurs in exposed sedimentary rocks... -
An investigation of the superconducting ground state in the non-centrosymmetr...
In this proposal we propose to investigate the superconducting ground state of the non-centrosymmetric superconductor Ru7B3. Controversy exists over the nature of the... -

The aim of this proposal is a comprehensive structural investigation of a technologically-important perovskite-based ferroelectric material xBiScO3-(1-x)PbTiO3 through studying... -
An investigation on the adsorption of reverse pluronic and additives on metal...
PPO-PEO-PPO copolymer-based lubricant with extreme pressure or friction modifier additives has been introduced as boundary lubricant in metal forming. The Pluronic reverse... -
High field musr investigation of Shastry-Sutherland phase in Ce2-xPd2+yIn1-z
The Shastry-Sutherland lattice (SSL) can be described as a 2D square lattice built up from a network of dimers disposed orthogonally and has been observed in SrCu2(BO2)3.... -
Investigation of the excitation spectrum in the 1D distorted diamond chain Az...
We propose to investigate the excitation spectrum of azurite in both zero field and applied fields up to 7T. Using inelastic neutrons on OSIRIS we hope to clearly resolve the... -
Mineralogical investigation of archeological ceramic fragments from Modena (I...
We propose to investigate on INES the mineralogical composition of a collection of ceramic fragments from three different archeological sites in the Modena area (Italy). These... -
An investigation of anti-pressure effect on the time reversal symmetry breaki...
In this proposal we propose to continue our investigation into the LaNiC2 non-centrosymmetric superconductors. Previously, we have shown that in this system time reversal... -
Structural investigation of nano sized CeO2 and ZnO systems
We will investigate bulk and nano size ceria and zinc oxide prepared by solvothermal methods to determine the defect chemistry associated with these solids. We will use neutron... -
Neutron scattering investigation of the influence of high hydrostatic pressur...
Amyloid fibrils are highly organized filamentous structures formed by the self-assembly of polypeptides. This proposal is to study the effect of pressure on the structure of... -
An investigation into water incorporation in titanium and phosphate doped A2S...
The drive for increasing energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions has garnered increasing support for the use of fuel cell technology, which offers the potential... -
Neutron diffraction and µSR investigation on YbPd
YbPd crystallizes in the cubic CsCl-type structure and reported to have magnetically ordered ground state with the mixed valence of the Yb ion. Further, it under goes through... -
Diffraction investigation of cyclic molecules on surfaces of different symmetry
The wetting of solid surfaces by gases and liquids is both fundamentally and technologically important especially in the areas of energy storage and conversion, e.g. catalysis.... -
