This proposal continues our studies of water and small molecule binding around surfactant micelles using NIMROD, to obtain previously inaccessible details of their molecular...

The triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet is the classic example of the frustrated magnet, here the ground state forms a non-collinear 120° structure. A number of different...

The surface of metal oxide nanoparticles are typically coated with layers of water that are strongly bonded to the surface. The properties of these water layers are...

Guanosine (GMP) is the ideal brick for controlled self-assembly of biocompatible materials, as it has the special ability to self-associate in water to form G-quartets (G4), and...

The pharmaceutical industry has been described as being 'in a period of crisis' as the number of drug approvals relative to most major pharmaceutical companies Research and...

Supercritical (sc) fluids have unique properties that have led to a rich variety of applications including production of essential oils and pharmaceutical products, green...

In our recent work we have studied formation of nanostructured cerium oxides from the choline chloride:urea deep eutectic solvent (DES). We found that the nanostructure of the...

The near- and intermediate-range order within peptide and peptide/DNA hydrogels will be probed across the q range available on NIMROD. Samples will be prepared in H2O/D2O...

Kay objectives: measurements of Ti-O bond lengths and Ti-O-Ti angles in a series of (Ba,Sr,Ca)TiO3 perovskites and correlate with the observed variation of Tcs of the FE-PE...

A consortium of several UK universities and industries has been set up, based at the National Physical Laboratory, Teddington, to investigate ¿Length-scale bridging in...

The structure dependence of BaCe0.8Y0.2O3-d (BCY-20), a leading proton conducting material, will be studied as a function of temperature and, critically, controlled atmosphere...

The objective of this study is to examine the local structure of a set of Iron Silicate glasses containing a single alkali metal in order to understand the correlation of...

We request time on VESUVIO to study the properties of FLiBe using mass-resolved neutron spectroscopy (MANSE). FLiBe is a mixture of BeF2 and LiF and its physical properties in...

Ionic liquids (ILs) are low melting point organic salts that until recently were thought to have homogeneous microstructure. In recent SANDALS research,1 we showed pure ILs are...

The composition dependent structure of glasses in the B2O3-GeO2 system will be measured by employing the method of neutron diffraction with Ge isotope substitution. This system...

One important structural application of oxide glasses is for nuclear waste immobilisation. Recent reports have highlighted the possibility of iron phosphate glasses as an...

Supercritical CO2 is an interesting medium for supercritical fluid extraction of aromatic molecules, due to the low temperatures and pressures needed to the process. Methanol is...

Deep eutectic liquids (DELs) - mixtures of high melting-point solids that form stable liquids near room temperature ¿ have recently emerged as a new class of novel solvents with...

Antimicrobial peptides (AMP) are naturally occurring biomolecules which act as a defense mechanisms against disease in a number of different animals, including humans. These...

Sodium ion batteries (NIB) are promising alternatives to the current lithium ion batteries: sodium is cheap, sustainable, and has similar properties to lithium. Search for an...
