Study of the protein denaturation in glassy matrices
The proposed experiment is addressed to use the MARI spectrometer to study the thermal denaturation process of the psychrophile enzyme alpha-amylase in presence of bioprotectant... -
Spectroscopic Studies on hydrogenated ball milled graphite on TOSCA
Despite the large research effort that has been made, the microscopic processes of hydrogen chemisorption on graphite is not well understood. By ball milling graphite for a... -
Probing the ground state magnetic structure of single crystalline Ho3Fe5O12, ...
Lu and Ho counterparts of RE3Fe5O12 will be an appropriate platform to reveal the complexmagnetic ground state of rare earth iron garnets with common formula RE3Fe5O12. Lu3+... -
Temperature Effects in YIG Films Probed by PNR
Yttrium iron garnet Fe3Y5O12 (YIG) is the material of choice in spin pumping, spin Seeback and Spin Hall magnetoresistance (SHMR) measurements [1-3]. This is mainly due to two... -
From giant magneto-elastic coupling to negative thermal expansion
We recently used high-resolution neutron diffraction on HRPD to observe the largest magneto-elastic coupling ever seen in a metallic magnet. The material studied was CoMnSi, a... -
Study of local orientations in diisocyano linkages relevant to the design of ...
Recent work on self assembling monolayers with diisocyano linkages have shown their great potential for application to photovoltaics. The next step is to determine the... -
Effect of oxygen vacancies on the phonon dispersion of pyrochlores
The frustrated magnetism of pyrochlores makes them candidates for applications in magnetic cooling and scientific instrumentation, and the proposal that they can be used to... -
The application of INS to characterise iron based Fischer- Tröpsch catalysts ...
In conjunction with an industrial partner (Sasol Technology), it is proposed to apply INS to characterize a series of prototype Fischer-Tröpsch synthesis (FTS) catalysts that... -
IINS measurements on the terminating protons of the basic structural units of...
More than 6 million tonnes of carbon black per year are produced worldwide. The major part is used as reinforcing filler material in tyres and mechanical rubber goods. For... -

THE IMPACT OF HYDROGEN-BONDING CONTACTS ON THE PROPERTIES OF ALKYLAMMONIUM PR...
Ionic liquids are of interest to chemistry and material sciences because of their designerproperties. The protic ionic liquids are excellent proton carriers in fuel cell... -
Two-Dimensional Incommensurate Modulation in Melilite
We have prepared large single crystals of the melilite electroltyes Ln1+xCaxGa3O7+d; (Ln = La and Nd; x = 0 and 0.5) using a floating zone mirror furnace. We have characterised... -
Characterisation of Pearlman's catalyst
Pearlman¿s catalyst is commonly used in various hydrogenation, arylation and O-debenzyaltion reactions. The catalyst is unusual that it is active but not pyrophoric. It is... -
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... -
INS Analysis of Kaolinite and its Dehydroxylation Products
This application for beam time on TOSCA is a crucial component of a study into the dynamics, structure and reactivity of kaolinite and its dehydroxylation products.... -
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... -
Variable Temperature studies of an anomalous proton sponge benzoic acid co-cr...
As part of a long-running programme, we have identified many co-crystallisation systems producing hydrogen-bonded molecular complexes yielding fascinating X-ray diffraction and... -
Metastable Water Ice and Nitric Acid ¿ observing the phase changes
The IPCC report 2007 underlines the particular importance of aerosol particles for the water cycle and the radiation balance, and thus for the global climate. In Cirrus clouds... -
Multiferroic (Ferroelastic/Magnetic) Phase Transitions in KMnF3
KMnF3 perovskite undergoes 3 structural, and two magnetic phase transitions on cooling from 300 K to 2 K. Above 185 K the compound is in the aristotype structure, on cooling... -
Demystifying the Haupt effect: the need for neutron scattering
In 1972, Haupt observed a giant enhancement of proton polarisation in NMR experiments on crystalline g-picoline. Key to this discovery was the implementation of quick...
