Time of flight-resolved gamma background measurements on VESUVIO
Gamma background is one of the main factors limiting the current VESUVIO capabilities. We aim at a characterisation of the time of flight dependence of the gamma background.... -
Elucidating the effect of BTHC on DMPC monolayers
Plastic bags are used as containers for storage of donated blood. These bags are often made of PVC plasticized with dialkylphthalates (e.g. DEHP), which migrates into the blood... -
Silica perturbation of the water structure around cationic micelles during te...
This proposal continues a new direction in our research on surfactant-templated inorganic materials. These nanostructured materials contain ordered arrays of surfactant micelles... -
Monitoring the changes in the local environment of titanium in modified netwo...
In this experiment we aim to evaluate the structure of titanium-rich glasses as they are compressed. In a previous experiment we have collected data for K2TiSi2O7 glasses with... -
Multi-scale modelling of HCP alloys using peak profile analysis
Hexagonal close packed (HCP) alloys have a wide range of industrial uses, including within the nuclear industry and for aerospace applications.The properties of HCP alloys are... -
High-pressure studies of energetic co-crystals and salts
This proposal will explore the effects of elevated pressures and temperatures on the structures of an energetic co-crystal containing nitroguanidine (NQ)and an energetic salt... -
Single proton short time dynamics in Pd/Ag membranes
Pd-Ag membranes used in Fusion machines for isotopic separation of H isotopesa can also be used for the production of ultrapure H with interesting applications in renewables.... -

Quenched salt hydrates new ways of probing water clusters.
Very rapid quenching of liquids to form a glass, from which crystalline phases are subsequently obtained by devitrification, is a powerful technique for obtaining novel... -
Understanding Structural Changes in Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) on Heating
This experiment will establish the structural changes that occur in Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) prior to the process of pore collapse or crystallisation. We will study the... -
Hydrogen Insertion into Zirconium- and Vanadium-Substituted Substoichiometric...
Despite the insight provided by the ab initio approach, there still remain some important questions concerning the hydrogen insertion in new hydrogen storage systems,... -
Non-Fullerene Based Acceptors for Organic Solar Cells
Organic Solar Cells (OSCs) have attracted substantial commercial and scientific interest as they provide a pathway to realizing a renewable energy source that is portable... -
Towards the Calibration of Chemical Pressure
The application of hydrostatic pressure allows the precise tuning of atomic separations, which control electronic structure and virtually all the interatomic interactions that... -
The role of defects in the pressure-induced octahedral tilting in Prussian bl...
We propose a high-pressure study of two Prussian blue analogues, Mn[Co(CN)6]0.67 and MnPt(CN)6. Our high-pressure XRD study shows a phase transition from cubic to rhombohedral... -
The role of biogenic amines in lipopeptide biofilm formation
Pore forming lipopeptides, such as Tolaasin, are produced by pathogenic mushroom bacteria, and are implicated in diseases such as ¿brown blotch¿ disease. They have potential... -
Quantum dynamics in a J_eff=1/2 isotropic triangular-lattice antiferromagnet ...
This proposal is part of our research programme to explore the spin dynamics of strongly-frustrated quantum magnets. A canonical model is the spin-1/2 triangular antiferromagnet... -
Monitoring crystallisation of Y3Al5O12 (YAG) under supercritical conditions u...
This proposal seeks 2 days on POLARIS in order to study hydrothermal chemical syntheses of yttrium aluminium garnet, Y3Al5O12 (YAG) in supercritical water using the... -
Excitations of the Zeeman ladder in a transverse field in the Ising antiferro...
The excitations of an Ising antiferromagnetic chain have been studied in the past and are known to form either continuous spectrum or Zeeman ladders. Such a system can be... -
Vacancy Distribution in Praseodymium Doped Ceria
Doped cerias are currently being used as oxide ion conducting electrolyte materials in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Depending on the nature and concentration of the dopant... -
