This proposal relates to the study of adsorption of n-dodecyl phosphocholine (C12PC) at the oil-water interface. The thickness of the adsorbed monolayers measured for dC12hPC...

This proposal was submitted on MERLIN (RB1010206) and beam time was allocated on MARI. We have carried out low energy measurements on MARI and found a clear evidence of the spin...

This proposal aims to explore co-surfactants, as additives with CO2-active surfactants, for elongating reversed micelles in dense CO2 by using high-pressure small-angle neutron...

We recently discovered new members of the stoichiometric 1-3-7 family of crystals including YbRh3Si7, YbIr3Ge7, CeIr3Ge7, and YbIr3Si7, whose magnetic and transport properties...

Cell adhesion and proliferation at the surface of liquids such as oil droplets is a surprising phenomenon as it is typically accepted in the field of bioengineering that cells...

While we now have a complete picture of the average local and intermediate structures of the various amorphous ices, their dynamic behaviour (glass transition and defect...

Ionic liquids (ILs) have been extensively studied for liquid¿liquid extractions and have recently been examined for the purification and separation of crude oil components. Of...

Dynamics of multicomponent mixtures such as polymer blends are typically studied with QENS and deuterium labelling. Difficulties arise in the data analysis if the coherent...

Recent studies in our laboratory have shown that a range of A-site deficient perovskite oxides, with carefully tuned chemical compositions, exhibit excellent properties when...

The development of new porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is receiving considerable attention owing to their potential for energy-efficient gas storage and separation. We...

From the archaeometric point of view, very few studies have been performed on late antiquecopper-alloys, mainly by means of destructive techniques.The present study opens up...

Materials with antiferromagnetic interactions between spins on a triangle lattice inherently exhibit large frustration between similar energy ground states giving rise to novel...

Metal carbonate particles dispersed in dodecane and stabilised with alkyl salicylate surfactants have been shown to aggregate when trace water is added. We have found that...

The growth in both global demand for energy and fossil-fuel related environmental issues drive research on alternative fuel sources. Solid oxide fuel cells, which can operate on...

We propose an experiment on the low energy spectrometer LET to study temperature effects on the Luttinger liquid (LL) phase on the spin ladder geometry. The spin ladder material...

Fluoride Ion Batteries (FIB) are alternative energy storage systems which work based on the transport of fluoride ions between the electrochemically active electrode materials....

In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of...

In this experiment we propose to perform neutron diffraction measurements on lithium intercalation compounds,Li2xMn1-xPS3,at room temperature,40ºC,75 ºC,150ºC and under vacuum...

This proposal requests 2 days on MERLIN to measure the INS spectrum of the novel perovskite type oxyhydride BaTiO3-xHx (x = 0.4). Prevision INS measurements, on TOSCA, have...

From 2009 we have measured at ISIS selected samples of Indian blades from Hyderabad and other private collections in order to determine their phase distribution by neutron...
