A study of the role of divalent cations in the stability of smooth LPS in out...
The Outer Membrane (OM) is found in bacteria which cause plague, cholera & Legionnaires disease. It is important as; a barrier to antibiotics & the site of... -
Temperature dependent diffusion of water in human red blood cells
We propose to measure the diffusion of water in human red blood cells on the high resolution spectrometer IRIS with quasi-elastic neutron scattering. Diffusion of water in cells... -
The origin of ultra-low thermal conductivity in the thermal barrier material ...
Thermal barrier materials are used in modern turbines to enable them to run above the melting temperature of the turbine blades. However, to go to higher temperatures (and... -
Structural study on the 3D arrangement of (hexa-acyl) lipid A in lipid membrane
This study will focus on the structural investigations of the bilayers formed on silicon substrates in which the outer leaf consists of DOPE/LPS mixtures. We aim is to achieve... -
In-situ hydrogen decomposition studies of ammonia borane and the diammoniate ...
Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3... -
Correlation between local dynamics and shape of SDS micelles
This is in continuation with our earlier proposal (RB910248) for which experiment was carried out during August 2009. Fast segmental dynamics of surfactants in rod-like... -
In-Situ Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering Study of a Gas Loaded Indium-Carboxy...
We request 8 days on IRIS to study the diffusion of adsorbed H2 gas and C2-hydrocarbons molecules within a gated indium-based porous metal-organic framework (MOF) as a function... -
Investigation of crack nucleation in superalloys using advanced neutron methods
It is proposed that crack nucleation will be investigated at ISIS using the EnginX beam line with the IMAT imaging detector. Notched LCF specimens with varying materials and Kt... -
Characterisation of Spin density Wave phase in Na2Ti2(Sb,As)2O
The formation of charge and spin density wave (CDW and SDW) states in metallic systems isdriven by Fermi surface instabilities that are often found to compete with... -
quantitative dark field imaging using Larmor labelling
We will determine whether a neutron technique called dark field Lamor imaging can provide quantitative information about the spatial distribution of small inhomogeneities in... -
Structural and magnetic neutron diffraction study of a novel frustrated syste...
Every new triangular lattice (TL) antiferromagnet attracts considerable attention since they usually display rich physics due to the inherent frustration and degenerate ground... -

Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -
The first muSR measurement of magnetism in the T*214 cuprate
We propose the first muSR measurements on T-structured La0.9+x/2Eu0.9+x/2Sr0.2-xCuO4 to investigate the effect of hole-doping and the oxygen annealing on the magnetism. Since... -
Magnetic structure and multiferroicity in metal-formate perovskites
The family of guanadinium metal formates (M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) are isostructural with the perovskites and are therefore of interest for potential applications: in particular,... -
Magnetic structures of antiferromagnetic heavy fermion CeAuAl3 and CeCuAl3 co...
CeAuAl3 and CeCuAl3 compounds crystallize in the tetragonal I4mm, BaNiSn3-type and display interesting bulk properties. Here we propose to investigate the magnetic structures of... -
Interaction of Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) with Model Mammalian Cell Membr...
Atherosclerosis and subsequent clinical complication is one of the biggest killers in the western world, with a death toll reaching 16.7 million deaths per year. Although many... -
mSR study of the Cu-spin correlation and superconductivity in the electron do...
The purpose of this mSR study is to investigate the volume fraction of antiferromagnetic (AF) ordered regions and the temperature where AF order is developed, TN, in the...
