Detecting an entanglement transition in a quantum magnet
Justification: We'd like to apply for three days Director’s Discretionary time on WISH to continue the experiment on measures of quantum entanglement in a model 1D magnet. This... -
Correlating local structure with properties in piezoelectrics, and multiferro...
Discovery and development of advanced materials requires understanding and control of the relationship between composition, structure and function. Traditionally, design has... -
Composition dependent structure in mixtures of water and hydrogen bonded mono...
This is part of a project concerning the interplay between water and other H-bonded liquids using a range of complementary experimental techniques, e.g. dielectric spectroscopy,... -
The effect of a vanishing pseudogap on the magnetic excitations in overdoped ...
One of the major issues in high temperature superconductivity is the nature of the so called pseudogap phase. A related question is whether the pseudogap controls the evolution... -
Measurement of gravitation-induced quantum interference
We propose to perform accurate measurements of the quantum gravitational effect for OffSpec. We would like to investigate if a similar discrepancy between quantum system gravity... -

Li-enriched layered transition metal cathode materials are attracting long-standing interest since they exhibit energy densities and capacities significantly higher than the... -
The Second Critical Point and Widom line of supercooled confined water
In 1992 P. Poole and coworkers have proposed the existence of two water polymorphs below its homogenous nucleation temperature. These are separated by a coexistence line ending... -
OCV hysteresis in nickel metal hydride batteries
NiMH batteries exhibit a hysteresis, or path dependence, regarding the rest voltage of the system. Depending on charge/discharge history of the battery the rest voltage will be... -
Polymer displacement by surfactant at colloidal interface
The interactions of neutral polymers with surfactants have a key role in detergency and are systems of current academic and commercial interest. Here, we propose to study the... -
Testing protein location in curved lipid bilayers using oriented lipid cubic ...
This proposal will test whether membrane proteins within lipid cubic phases preferentially sit in more or less curved bilayer regions, using our recent advances in preparing... -
Probing Structural Anomalies in LaCoO3 using Neutron Total Scattering
This proposal is concerned with investigating changes in the local structure of LaCoO3 at various temperatures. The arrangement of d-electrons in the transition metal, Co,... -
New brownmillerite-based oxide ion conductors: Local structure and structure-...
Oxide ion conductors are key components in a number of technologically important applications. Our research programme on the development of new oxide ion conductors, using... -
The structure of the Bam complex, the Gram-negative outer membrane protein fo...
The proteins of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria are critical for bacterial survival, from providing basic physiological functions, to impairing virulence and...
