SHINING THE BEAM ON BONES: CHARACTERISATION OF BURNED AND FOSSILISED SKELETAL...
Neutron spectroscopy is applied to study bones exposed to anaerobic burning or fossilisation. The results thus obtained will complement previous data gathered by the team on... -
INS studies with MAPS of Nafion and model compounds
In the archetypal hydrogenoxygen proton exchange membrane fuel cell design, a proton-conducting polymer membrane (typically Nafion) contains the electrolyte solution that... -
The adsorption of methyl proprionate on silica catalysts.
Commercial routes for the manufacture of methyl methacrylate monomer have recently been developed that involve the reaction of esters over modified silicas, which are amphoteric... -
High-energy spin excitations in the optimally doped Ba0.67K0.33Fe2As2
From our previous data on BaFe2As2 and BaFe1.9Ni0.1As2, one may assume that the superconductivity only affects the low energy excitations. But for Ba0.67K0.33Fe2As2, the doping... -
Neutron spectroscopy of a novel family of Ln2 dimers
Molecular nanomagnets containing 4f ions are attracting an increasing interest because of their large magnetic anisotropy and slow relaxation of magnetization originating from... -
Mapping magnetic excitations in insulating phase of NaFe0.52Cu0.48As
Magnetism is believed to be linked to superconductivity in cuprates and iron pnictides. However while the parent compounds of cuprates are Mott insulators, the parent compounds... -
Paramagnetic excitations in NaFe0.53Cu0.47As
NaFe0.53Cu0.47As is an antiferromagnetic Mott insulator which connects unconventional superconductivity and Mott physics. The magnetic fluctuations in the ordered state has been... -
Characterisation of on-top hydrogen on fuel cell catalysts.
A key step in a fuel cell is the dissociation of hydrogen gas to provide protons and electrons by a catalyst. For low temperature fuel cells carbon black supported... -
Observation of intermediates on a transfer hydrogenation catalyst
The design and development of novel catalysts for chemical synthesis is incredibly important from both academic and industrial perspectives. Approximately 90 % of all commercial... -
Magnetic excitations in single-crystals of LaFeAsO
We aim to determine the magnetic excitation spectrum in single-crystals of the parent LaFeAsO compound and thereby address some basic issues concerning the nature of the... -
Copy of: High Energy Electronic Excitations in CoO
following on the success of measuring the electronic excitation in NiO using MAPS, we wish to make similar but more extended measurements of the electronic excitations in CoO... -
Search for magnetic correlations in Fe phosphide superconductors
We propose to use inelastic neutron scattering to search for the existence of spin fluctuations in two iron phosphide superconductors, LaFePO and Sr2ScFePO3. The objective is to... -
Spin wave in Nd2CuO4-- Determination of the magnetic exchange couplings of th...
Since the discovery of high transition temperature (high Tc) copper oxide, many efforts have been made on the understanding of its electronic and magnetic properties. Although... -
Understanding absorption of the energetic compound 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-on...
Insensitive munitions (IM) are munitions that will not react violently to accidental insult, thus they are relatively safe to handle and store. Ongoing research into IM has led... -
Can we use the H-H stretch of adsorbed dihydrogen to characterise materials?
The use of the J 0-to-1 rotational transition of dihydrogen has been extensively used to characterise the state if hydrogen in and on materials. The disadvantage of studying the... -
The application of INS to examine high specification Fe Fischer-Tropsch catal...
Over the last 4-5 years the research team have been developing INS methodology that can be applied to investigate Fe Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) catalysts. The first stage of that... -
