Revising the onset of anharmonicity in proteins
Our previous INS studies of ¿dry¿/hydrated apoferritin show that the hydrated protein undergoes a dynamical transition, Td, at 200K. Such behavior, first modeled by Doster et al... -
Self-assembly of GFP-HMPA protein polymer conjugates: Effect of polymer hydro...
Conjugation of therapeutic proteins to polymers is well established but most methods result in multi-site and multiple conjugation, crosslinking resulting in lack of orientation... -
Probing the catalytic mechanism of CO2 utilisation for cyclic carbonate synth...
The rapidly increasing atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide necessitates the development of novel technologies for sustainable carbon capture and utilisation procedures.... -
Test of an array of new thermal and resonance neutron detectors
The R&D activity on neutron detectors is strategic and instrumental for the development of reliable application of the neutron techniques. We propose to use two equal... -

Cation ordering in silicate spinel Ni2SiO4
Silicate spinels are important minerals in the transition zone region of the Earth and in order to understand seismic signals from these depths (550-660 km) we need to know the... -
Is there an incommensurate magnetic resonance in La2-xSrxCuO4?
Most optimally-doped high- Tc cuprate superconductors show a magnetic excitation (known as the 'resonance') at q=(pi,pi ) whose intensity increases sharply below Tc. This... -
Membrane reconstitution of human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase using lipid-det...
Human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) is an integral membrane protein found in mitochondria involved in the biosynthesis of pyrimidines. DHODH oxidizes dihydroorotate with... -
Uranium minerals at extreme conditions: a powder neutron diffraction study
As Fukushima and Chernobyl have demonstrated, the consequences of an accident in a nuclear power plant are international. Extreme conditions, far from thermodynamic control are... -
CuH: a (nearly) 200 year old problem SANDALS
Copper (I) hydride, CuH, is unique amongst the binary metal hydrides in that it can be synthesised, at room temperature, in aqueous solution. In recent years CuH generated in... -
In-situ reaction of lithium amide or imide with manganese(IV) oxide
We request 3 days beam time on POLARIS for in-situ powder diffraction studies of the reactions of lithium amide or lithium imide with manganese(IV) oxide under flowing argon or... -
Probing chiral interactions in aqueous amino acid deriving polymers
Sodium deoxycholate (NaDC) is a low molecular weight gelator, widely known as one of the components of bile salts. Above a specific concentration, NaDC is able to form pH... -
Interaction of Lignosulphonates with model surfactant systems by Small Angle ...
With the biobased economy growing substantially and pressure to reduce reliance on palm and crude oil derived materials, it is vital that the Home and Personal Care industry... -
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... -
Oxidation of thin film at the air-water interface of cloud droplets using REA...
The Earth's climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important effects. Common... -
High resolution neutron diffraction study to investigate temperature dependen...
The crystal structure of the intermetallic PrFe2Al8 consists of a network of Al which forms quasi cage-like structure where the Pr and the Fe form chains of atoms along the... -
High-Energy dynamics and search for a continuum in CaFe2O4
We propose to investigate the high-energy (above 10 meV) excitations using either the MERLIN or MAPS chopper instruments. CaFe2O4 is interesting for several reasons. First, it... -
Incommensurate-commensurate phase transitions in K2SeO4
Materials with incommensurate structures often show exotic properties (such as charge density waves). The development of reliable and efficient refinement techniques for such... -
Temperature dependence of magnetic dead-layers: a possible route to novel 2D ...
We propose to investigate the temperature dependence of magnetic dead-layer thickness in amorphous ferromagnetic CoFeTaB films on Si and GaAs semiconductor substrates. Magnetic...
