The Second Critical Point and Widom line of supercooled confined water
In 1992 P. Poole and coworkers have proposed the existence of two water polymorphs below its homogenous nucleation temperature. These are separated by a coexistence line ending... -
Structure determination of solution aggregation of single alkyl chain PC surf...
We have synthesised alkyl phosphorylcholine (CnPC) surfactants in hydrogenated and deuterated form and have determined their solution aggregation using SANS. In this part of... -

Studies of the new S=1/2 triangular lattice spin liquid kappa-ET2Ag2(CN)3 (CH...
A new member of the class of S=1/2 triangular lattice quantum spin liquids will be studied with muons. It is obtained by replacing Cu with Ag in the original compound... -
DYNAMICS OF SURFACTANTS IN LUBRICATING OILS
In a recent series of successful experiments at PSI and ISIS we were able to demonstrate the possibility of measuring the rate of transfer of a small molecule (allyl alcohol)... -
Correlating local structure with properties in piezoelectrics, and multiferro...
Discovery and development of advanced materials requires understanding and control of the relationship between composition, structure and function. Traditionally, design has... -
µSR studies of free radical reactions by non-thermal microwave effects
We plan to study the non-thermal microwave (MW) effects on H2O2 through its reaction with muonium under MW irradiation. The key objectives are 1) for the first time definitively... -
Quantum critical points in relaxor-type ferroelectric tetragonal tungsten bro...
Quantum Critical Points in ferroelectrics, where the transition temperature is very near absolute zero, are of significant current interest, with publications in Nature-family... -
Magnetic phase transitions in geometrically frustrated SrHo2O4
We propose to probe the development of the low-temperature magnetism in SrHo2O4 using a high count rate diffractometer such as WISH or GEM. SrHo2O4 belongs to a family of... -
Investigation of magnetic defects in exfoliated and ball-milled graphite
The recent interest in carbon-based materials like graphene stimulated a deeper analysis of the magnetism in graphite defects. In a previous µSR experiment we observed an... -
Defects and Medium-Range Disorder in the Metal¿Organic Framework UiO-66
We wish to use NIMROD to study the distribution and nature of defect sites in the high-thermal-stability metal-organic framework UiO-66. For the most part, defect structures in... -
Magnetic excitations in the layered honeycomb alpha-RuCl3
This proposal is part of our research programme to explore novel phases in correlated electron systems with strong spin-orbit interaction. Here we aim to probe the spin dynamics... -
Investigation of hydrogen/nickel and hydrogen/cobalt interactions in new meta...
Raney-nickel type catalysts are some of the most versatile technical agents for efficient hydrogenation reactions. Raney-type catalysts based on Fe, Co, Ru and other metals have... -

Hydrogen kinetics in nano-layered metal hydrides for hydrogen sensing applica...
Accurate, safe and cheap hydrogen detectors functioning under a wide range of conditions are a vital ingredient for using hydrogen as an energy carrier. A novel, safe and cheap... -
Influence of the polarity of plasticizer and degree of hydrolysis of Poly-Vin...
Migration of small molecules to, and across the surface of polymer matrices is a little-studied problem with important industrial applications. PVAc films are of industrial... -
Phase retrieval for non-trivial systems
Neutron reflectometry (NR) is a very powerful technique for the study of thin layers. It is able to measure composition, thickness and roughness and is a very penetrating... -
Inelastic neutron scattering spectra of hydrogen absorbed in palladium-silver...
Pd-Ag alloys find technological applications in H uptake and purification. Among various peculiar properties, their electric resistivity variation as a function of the H loading... -
