The design and development of novel catalysts for chemical synthesis is incredibly important from both academic and industrial perspectives. Approximately 90 % of all commercial...

This proposal is part of our research efforts aimed at the understanding of the static and dynamic properties of cyclic polymers and their comparison to linear chains. Previous...

In the current proposal, we require TOSCA to investigate by vibrational spectroscopy the apparent amorphous nature of the prototype drug molecule ibuprofen confined by...

Magnetic skyrmions have a robust topological magnetic structure, which makes them ideal for use as binary information carriers. The skyrmions appear in a well-ordered lattice...

The microscopic origin of neutron spin resonance remains one of the major debates in iron-based superconductors. The spin resonance in iron pnictides is generally interpreted as...

We propose to fully characterise the proton quantum dynamics in oriented ice, grown on Pt surface, via DINS experiment and quantum ¿mechanical calculation, using path integral...

This proposal will measure vibrational spectra from a series of catalyst samples produced from a pilot plant reactor at Tianjin University China converting dimethylether to...

Nitric acid plays important roles in the atmosphere, in all aggregate states and combined with water.During the last periode we were running the proposal RB1110207 "Metastable...

Green dioptase is a naturally occurring mineral, that has a deep green colour, similar to that of an emerald, and with a chemical formula of CuSiO3.H2O. The Cu lies in quasi-1D...

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...

Sodium Cobaltate has a complex phase diagram, exhibiting various phenomena and a kaleidoscope of superlattice diffraction patterns as the concentration of sodium is varied. It...

One-dimensonal Heisenberg antiferromagnet is the only solid-state system, for which the precise analytical description has been derived; it orders magnetically at 0 K. Here we...

The piloting experiments RB820478, RB610497 and RB 10067 on VESUVIO on (NH4)2PdCl6 and (NH4)2TeCl6 have shown that: (i) at 300 K, the dynamics of NH4+ and PdCl6- and TeCl6- is...

Hydrogen storage is considered to be one of the principal technological barriers in the transition towards a hydrogen-based economy. In this proposal, we plan to look at the key...

The rise of quantum materials observed in the past decades has been a source of great excitement for condensed matter scientists, with the flourishing of new concepts and...

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 petrochemical industry accounts for a large proportion of global chemical industry, as such even subtle improvements in product yield can result in significant economic and...

This proposal will use QENS to investigate the diffusion of propane and methylacetate in mordenite zeolite catalysts used for the carbonylation of dimethylether to make...

Ba2CuTeO6 is a recently discovered S=1/2 spin ladder system containing Cu2+ ladders. Our experiments indicate that it is extremely close to the theoretically predicted quantum...

We studied a new metamagnetic heavy-fermion (HF) compound YbRh3 Si7, synthesized for the first time. This is the first HF compound in the ScRh3Si7 family, for which the only...
