In Situ High Pressure NMR study of the Direct Synthesis of NaAlH4
NaAlH4 has been a model system for metal hydride hydrogen storage materials since the reaction was identified to be reversible. The decomposition pathway has been described by a... -
Spin Excitations and "Hourglass" Dispersion in the Model High-Tc superconduct...
The unique "hourglass"-type dispersion observed within several classes of hole-doped cuprates has garnered considerable theoretical and experimental interest. Here we propose to... -
Lattice dynamics in the giant barocaloric Ammonium Sulfate
Given the challenges in providing efficient and non-harmful refrigeration, it is timely to study barocaloric systems, which offer cooling power via the application of pressure,... -
Investigating the speciation of hydrocarbonaceous deposits formed during oxid...
Propene plays an important role in various petro-chemical applications, such as the production of polypropylene and acrylic acid, but is dependent on the fluctuating prices of... -
Molecular Mechanisms of Enhanced Thermal Conductivity in Copper-based Nanofluids
The combination of the transport properties of liquids with the high thermal conductivity of metals is a promising way of improving heat transfer efficiency and thus reduce... -
Deuteration-induced phase transition in a multiferroic framework material
The hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites are of great interest as functional materials, because they combine the well-established perovskite topology with new physics and... -
Unpicking the signal of partial order from thermal motion in diffuse scatteri...
Orientationally-disordered water molecules in ice adopt a degree of partial order upon cooling, a process that is halted by kinetics at ~100 K in pure ice and ~60 K in KOH-doped... -
How does oxidative damage change peptide membrane insertion?
The insertion of peptides and proteins into cell membranes is crucial for the functioning of cells, and also for the functioning of a variety of antibacterial reagents. Cells... -
Understanding the decomposition of ammonia by lithium-calcium imide
Among light metal amide-imide catalysts for ammonia decomposition, lithium-calcium imide is the most promising candidate for practical application. Ex situ diffraction data... -
How is the nanoscale structure of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) impacted by the...
This experiment will determine how the structure and porosity of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) changes when the ice is contaminated by adsorbate molecules. ASW is a porous... -

Me-ND311BD4: a temperature dependent study of its crystal structure and decom...
We request 4 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus to follow the structural changes of Me-ND4 11BD4 as a function of temperature. The high resolution of HRPD will allow us to... -
Spin excitations in the paramagnetic phase of a charge-ordered bilayered mang...
In a previous experiment we measured the spin wave spectrum of the half-doped bilayer manganite Pr(Ca,Sr)2Mn2O7 in its spin, charge and orbital ordered phase. The data, which... -
Probing the Kinetics and Liquid Structure of Toluene Hydrogenation by Pt/MCM-41
In a proof-of-concept beamtime award (RB1220486) we studied the process of platinum-catalysed benzene hydrogenation in the pores of MCM-41 using standard neutron diffraction...
