We will perform direct laser spectroscopy to measure the ionisation energy of muon defect levels in a semiconductor - specifically silicon carbide. We should see a broad...

Photocrystallography is an important technique in modern structural chemistry. The most recent and impressive developments of this technique in "small molecule" crystallography...

Small gel molecules which can change their properties in response to, for example temperature are important for applications such as drug delivery through the skin. In order to...

Small-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) are of long standing interest to both magnetism and heterogeneous catalysis. Recent muSR studies of Au NPs encapsulated in mesoporous...

Heavy alkaline earth nitride hydrides (AE2NH, with AE = Ca and Ba) are of interest due to their potential suitability as electrolyte materials in a variety of electrochemical...

The hydrogen bonding interactions between species in binary liquid systems can have a significant effect on the properties, especially in relation to the pure materials. Binary...

We request 4 days of beam-time on ENGIN-X to measure the elastic behaviour of polycrystalline samples of gypsum, antigorite, and talc as a function of uniaxial load. All three...

Heterogeneous catalysis, where the reagents are either contained in a liquid medium, or are liquids in their own right, plays a significant part of the chemical industry. These...

Here we propose the investigation of intermediate compounds obtained during the decomposition of the multicomponent hydrogen storage system 2 LiBH4 : MgH2 using ex-situ...

The high-pressure form of solid water, ice III, is the equilibrium phase in contact with liquid water at pressures from about 2.0 - 3.5 kbar. Consequently, its properties are...
