In the proposed experiment we want to study two magnetic field induced transitions in the giant magnetocaloric Gd5Si2Ge2 and Gd5Si0.5Ge3.5 compounds. By leveraging from the...

We propose to study the H2- and CO-induced structural reconstruction of Ru nanoparticles (NPs) in Ru/Al2O3 catalysts by time-resolved XRD/PDF experiments under gas- and...

The principle aim of this project is to perform new ground breaking experiments in glass formers at extreme conditions and in a previously unexplored dynamical range by using...

The experiment will build on a set of Arctic sea ice cores recently collected during the largest Arctic expedition in history (MOSAiC,’Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for...

In this proposal we aim to understand the mechanisms by which toxic “heavy metal” ions (e.g., Pb2+, Zn2+) that are dissolved in aqueous solutions influence the dissolution at...

The conditions and mechanisms reported for the pressure-induced alpha-omega phase transformation in zirconium are different under static and dynamic loading. In a previous work...

To understand the interrelation between strain localization & damage formation in relation to local self healing kinetics, we will characterize the distribution of local...

The cemento-dentine junction (CDJ) is an astoundingly fatigue-resistant interface between two tissues: tooth root dentine and cementum. It sustains millions of chewing cycles...

Via operando SAXS/WAXS/total scattering, we plan to gain valuable insights into the degradation of High Entropy Alloys which offer promising properties for fuel cell...

Gold rod-shaped nanoparticles (AuNRs) thanks to their anisotropic shape display a peculiar optical behaviour, consisting in two plasmon bands: a transverse plasmon band...

Firstly, we will study the structure and the dynamics of colloidal gels during the diffusion of cations that cross-link the colloids. The multi-scale structure and dynamics of...

Up to date the most promising candidates for ultimate phonon-mediated superconductivity in binary systems are novel crystal structures of a clathrate-type compounds of MH68,...

Lithium-ion batteries continue to revolutionize the modern landscape; with ubiquitous applications in aerospace, consumer electronics, grid storage, and powertrains for electric...

The BAG consists out of 7 groups that are heavily involved in macromolecular crystallography, as well as other structural biology techniques, at Umeå University, Sweden. We work...

The aim of this project is to combine highly complementary imaging methods – i.e., scanning small angle x-ray scattering, fast bright field microscopy and visible light...

Halide perovskites have attracted significant attention due to their excellent optoelectronic properties and potential applications in solar cells, LEDs, photodetectors, etc....

Among several materials proposed for safe and efficient solid-state hydrogen storage, alloys and intermetallics are the most promising candidates. We are currently studying the...

We propose to perform an in situ PXRD experiment during thermal cycling and gas adsorption on a perfluorinated AlIII-based metal-organic framework (MOF) with MIL-53 topology,...

A new, unique nano-focus instrumentation for rapid parallel XRF and XRD as well as X-ray imaging measurements at extreme pT conditions will be constructed on ID27. Funding for...

The aim of this research project is to determine the influence of synchrotron radiation on the induction of radiation damage in selected model protein structures in the presence...
