Copy of: Solvation dynamics of the phosopholipid 1,2-dipropanoyl-sn-glycero-3...
It is well known that water is the medium in which the overwhelming majority of biological processes take place. In cell membranes water molecules are thought to be essential to... -
Melting point dynamics of Confined fluids
This proposal aims to investigate the dynamics of the melting transition in H2O and CO2 when confined in a vycor (SiO2) matrix. The field of fluids in confined geometries is... -
Lattice vibrations of hydrogen impurities in a solid neon matrix
In recent incoherent inelastic neutron scattering experiments we have shown that the anharmonic single-particle dynamics of H2 can be measured with high precision in quantum... -
Thermal ionization of bond-centred muonium in diamond
Our previous LF-µSR measurements in natural type Ia single crystal diamond showed some evidence of the ionization of bond-centred muonium (MuBC) from around 1000K. This was... -
Degenerate ground-states in Ho2-xYxSn2O7
Ho2-xYxSn2O7 is characterized by degenerate magnetic ground-states, which involve the magnetic structure for x->0 (Spin-Ice phase) and the two-fold degeneracy of the... -
High-pressure studies of energetic materials
This proposal seeks to identify and characterise high-pressure polymorphs of the energetic materials hydroxylammonium perchlorate, CL-20, diaminodinitroethene (FOX-7), and... -
SR study near the ferromagnetic quantum critical point in CePd1-xRhx ...
Rcently the NFL behaviour near an antiferromagnetic quantum critical point (AFQCP) has been investigated extensively. Very recently, we have investigated, for the first time,... -
Quantum critical dynamics in the purely dipolar antiferromagnet LiErF4
LiErF4 is an example of an XY dipolar coupled antiferromagnet with planar anisotropy. As such it exhibits a quantum phase transition (QPT) in a small field of 4kOe, which is of... -
High-pressure and variable-temperature studies of RDX
Previous studies have suggested that a high-pressure form of the widely used secondary explosive RDX can be obtained above ~4 GPa and 488 K. This phase is reported to be... -
Vibrational Dynamics of Alkali Silicate Glasses - An Isotopic Mass Contrast S...
The present proposal is part of a larger EPSRC project advancing the vibrational spectroscopy of silicate glasses. The project involves the techniques of IR and Raman... -
Microscopic structure of acetic acid in water and methanol
Some of the most important chemical reactions involve Brønsted acids and bases where the solvation structure and transport dynamics of charged defects in hydrogen-bonded... -
Spin dynamics in disordered La(Cr1/3Mn1/3Fe1/3)O3 perovskite.
Disorder of magnetic cations usually suppresses long-range spin order: the Curie or Néel temperature drops rapidly, and a spin glass state often results at high disorder levels.... -
Order in the bulk and at the surface of dispersions of colloidal particles
Highly ordered dispersions of charged polymer particles that are tens or hundreds of nanometres diameter can be prepared. These are useful model systems for self-assembly and... -

This proposal seeks to identify and characterise high-pressure polymorphs of the energetic materials hydroxylammonium perchlorate, CL-20, diaminodinitroethene (FOX-7), and... -
Dynamics of trehalose-glycerol and lysozyme/trehalose-glycerol mixtures
The proposed experiment aims to study the dynamics of trehalose/glycerol mixtures and lysozyme in presence of trehalose/glycerol mixtures at different relative concentration.... -
Local structure and dynamics in metal-imidazolate frameworks
This proposal aims to study local structure and dynamics in two metal-organic frameworks (MOFs): namely, zinc imidazolate and cobalt imidazolate. Imidazole (IM) is a small, flat... -

Collective dynamics of barium crystal and liquid phases
We propose to measure the inelastic scattering S(Q,E) maps from barium in both the polycrystalline and liquid phases, based on the fact that there are intriguing similarities... -
Inelastic neutron scattering of alpha and beta anomers of xylose and glucose:...
Carbohydrates are one of the major classes of biomolecules that make up most of the organic matter on earth and serve as energy stores, fuels and metabolitic intermediates. They... -
collective dynamics and structural heterogeneity in an ionic liquid
We propose to investigate the high frequency dynamics of ionic liquid (IL), 1octyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C8MIM]Cl) deuterated by means of Inelastic Neutron Scattering...
