Magnetic fluctuations in the possible spin-triplet superconductor LiFeAs
LiFeAs is one of the newly discovered FeAs superconductors with still large T_c of 18K. First inelastic neutron scattering experiments on powder and on single-crystalline... -
Formation of Magnetic Charge Stripes in an Insulating Hole-Doped Antiferromagnet
The proposal aims to further investigate the transition from commensurate magnetic order to incommensurate magnetic and charge stripe order in the family of compounds,... -
Temperature dependence on mangetic excitations from the high Tc cuprate BSCCO
We plan to continue inelastic neutron scattering measurements on the high Tc cuprate superconductor BSCCO with optimum doping. In the proposed experiment, we will have about 40... -
The first in operando INS study of a catalytic reaction: CO oxidation over PdO
Inelastic neutron scattering has been used to study adsorbed species on catalysts for more than 30 years. All of this work has one feature in common: they are all ¿snapshots¿ of... -
The Structure of the High-Energy ¿Paramagnon¿ Excitations in La2-xSrxCuO4
A major problem in physics is the identification of the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity. Many theories purport to explain the high-Tc phenomenon. In most... -
Understanding the mechanism of benzyl alcohol oxidation using supported Au-Pd...
Gold, in its nano-scale, has been found to be very effective catalyst for oxidation reactions. More recently, it was shown that supported Au-Pd catalysts can be used for... -
High Energy Magnetic Excitations in Fe(Se,Te)
In our recent experiments on MERLIN we have established that the spin excitations in Fe(Se,Te) emanating from incommensurate positions near (0.5 0.5 0) extends at least to 250... -
An INS Study of the Effect of Pressure on the Crystal Structure Titanium Tetr...
At ambient pressure TiCl4 forms a molecular solid consisting of isolated TiCl4 molecules (phase-I). At 0.5 GPa this structure undergoes a transition to phase-II, which is... -

This application seeks to discover whether the catalyst handling protocols refined for INS measurements of a variety of heterogeneous catalytic systems can be further exploited... -
Magnetic excitations in CrB2
CrB2, like MnB2, are transition metal diborides that have magnetically ordered ground states. Preliminary neutron (TAS) work and in house lab indicated that the dispersion has... -
Application of INS in order to identify the hydrocarbons retained within the ...
The Methanol-to-Hydrocarbons reaction uses methanol as feedstock, and turns it into more industrially relevant products via a ZSM-5 catalyst. There is a lack of fundamental... -

Inelastic magnetic scattering in CePd3
CePd3 is a classic intermediate valence (IV) system. In MAPS experiment 620167 we obtained an important qualitative result for CePd3, namely that the Kondo-like scattering... -
Exploration of Magnetic Excitations at High Energy Transfers in Superconducti...
We propose to study two single crystals with nominal compositions Fe1.07Te and Fe1.18Te using the MAPS spectrometer. The amount of interstitial Fe controls the material¿s... -
Spin excitations in La2CoO4
We will use MAPS to measure the complete spin excitation spectrum of the quasi-two-dimensional S=3/2 antiferromagnet La2CoO4. The measurement is motivated by recent observations... -
Molecular and framework dynamics in CH3NH3PbBr3 - Raman and neutron scattering
Organic-inorganic perovskites have recently been shown to be potentially efficient and inexpensive photovoltaics. These materials undergo a series of structural transitions and... -
High precision measurement of the spin waves in Yttrium Iron Garnet
Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG) is a material with extremely wide ranging applications. It is a ferrimagnetic spinel with the narrowest ferromagnetic resonance linewidth of any known... -
How do modifiers affect performance in iron Fischer-Tropsch catalysts?
The applicants have recently completed a series of INS studies on a model iron Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. Given the recent huge invigoration of F-T catalysis due to future global...
