Modelling Intermolecular Interactions and Thermodynamic Properties of Naphtha...
Equations of state (EoSs) show how the thermodynamic variables of temperature, pressure and volume are inter-related. The ideal gas law, PV = nRT, is an example of an EoS which... -
Magnetic ordering at the Verwey transition in bulk like Fe3O4 thin films
Magnetite (Fe3O4) is a predicted half-metallic (100% spin polarised) ferromagnet with a high Curie temperature of ~858K. These properties make it well suited to use in... -
Nature of Disorder in Relaxor-like Ferroelectric AB(HCO2)3 Frameworks
Relaxor ferroelectics are of significant interest for use as piezoelectric actuators in sensing applications and for high precision mechanical stages. Relaxors are traditionally... -
Magnetic Excitations in Chromium
Chromium is unique amongst the d-band elemental metals in that it has a spin density wave ground state. The spin density wave is caused by Fermi surface nesting between electron... -
Inelastic neutron scattering study of spin gap formation in two forms of BaRuO3
Pseudogap phenomena, which are associated with the reduction in the density of states at EF, have been intensively investigated in HTSC, as well in heavy fermion systems through... -
Thermal expansion and simultaneous Raman spectroscopy of methanol ammoniates,...
We have recently determined the structures of methanol-monoammoniate, and Me-hemiammoniate from neutron powder data. These are found to have different degrees of C-H...O... -
Single-Crystal Neutron Diffraction Studies of Giant Pentaphosphaferrocene-Bas...
Single crystal neutron diffraction using SXD diffractometer of crystals containing giant pentaphosphaferrocene-based supramolecules. Aims are the localization of the disordered... -
Role of the microstructure on proton dynamics in BaZrO3 based proton conductors
Proton-conducting, acceptor-doped, BaZrO3 based perovskite oxides are one of the most promising family of compounds for applications as, eg electrolyte materials, in the... -
Spin excitations in the superconducting FeTe0.6Se0.4
The FeTe1-xSex series exhibits superconductivity over a broad range of doping. Previously we have made extensive neutron scattering measurements on superconducting x = 0.49 and... -
The nature of the Ferroelectric Phase in CdTiO3
The aim of the present proposal is to establish the structure of the ferroelectric phase of CdTiO3 and to determine the nature of the ferroelectric-paraelectric phase... -
Origin of giant ferroelectricity in perovskite-type Mn2O3
Perovskite-type compounds can be both very simple and tremendously complex. Remarkably, even binary perovskite-type compounds may exhibit high level of complexity that leads to... -
Does elastic twinning play a role in the thermal expansion behaviour of polyc...
We request two days of beam-time on POLARIS to obtain high resolution measurements of the thermal expansion of dolomite [CaMg(CO3)2]. The experiment forms part of a larger... -
In Situ Structural Studies of Low Temperature Synthesised TiP2O7 and V-Doped ...
The AX2O7 series has garnered much recent attention due to its ability to host a wide range of 4+ cations. The members of this series have been shown to exhibit complex... -
Investigation of pore filling via pseudo-condensation of supercritical hydrog...
This proposal aims to use NIMROD to glean information on the mechanisms of pore filling and to obtain a quantitative absolute value for the density of supercritical hydrogen... -

Is Zeolite Deactivation Through Pore Blocking?
Zeolites are porous framework materials that have active catalytic sites inside narrow channels. Unwanted reactions create coke in the pores which may block access to the active... -
Amorphous Micrometre-Sized Water Ice Particles for Planetary Science Experime...
We request 5 days on NIMROD to characterise the pressure and temperature dependent properties of amorphous icy particles generated in liquid ethane, as they will be used in... -
Probing the electronic structure of uranium(IV) compounds by Inelastic Neutro...
An understanding of the electronic structure of the actinide elements is one of the most intriguing and complex topics in contemporary chemistry. In particular the magnetic... -
Magnetic ground state of the candidate quantum ice material Pr2Sn2O7
Quantum spin ice is a novel form of matter in which the spins remain dynamic even at absolute zero due to quantum fluctuations. The requirements on the single-ion wavefunction... -
diffuse scattering in PMN-PT crystals
Complex mixed-ion pervoskites, ferroelectric material (1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3, attract plenty of applications due to high piezoelectric response. The difficulties result...
