The Kinetics of Ethanol Adsorption into Cholesterol Rich Bilayers
In a recent experiment carried out on SURF we have shown that on addition of ethanol to a DPPC model membrane, the anaesthetic initially diffuses to the bilayer surface followed... -
Dy3Mg2Sb3O14 - a 2D Kagome lattice with Classical Ising Spins
Dy3Mg2Sb3O14 forms a layered structure with magnetic Dy3+ ions forming sheets of corner sharing triangles, called a Kagome lattice. The Ising magnetic moments are constrained to... -
Using SANS to understand the structure and behaviour of surfactants in chocolate
Molten chocolate is a semi-solid suspension of (mostly) sugar, but also cocoa and milk solids in oil. In order to allow the sugar grains to flow past each other, either when the... -
COMBINED QUASI-ELASTIC NEUTRON SCATTERING AND SR-INFRARED MICROSPECTROSCOPY F...
This is a joint ISIS/DLS proposal Quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) and SR-Infrared microspectroscopy (SR-IRMS) are coupled to probe the impact of a Pd(II) anticancer... -

H/D isotope effect on enantiomers: the case of Alanine
In the current description of any molecular system based on the Schrodinger equation with a Hamiltonian accounting only for the electromagnetic forces, the structural properties... -
Interaction of polypeptides with surfactants: aqueous solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding how collagen based polypeptides interact with ionic surfactants using SANS. Both SDS and C12TAB will be... -
Probing the interfacial wetting of superhydrophobic, lithographically pattern...
Phenomena surrounding the wetting of natural or artificial topographically patterned surfaces are found systems associated with the diverse fields of chemical engineering,... -
Investigating the role of Oxygen in the delafossite-spinel transformations in...
CuFe1-xCrO2 has potential applications as an SOFC cathode material. It exhibits and interesting transformation on oxidation. This is a follow on from our recent HRPD experiment... -

The possibility of strongly ferromagnetic austenite in a stainless steel
It is generally accepted that austenitic steels (fcc) show no ferromagnetic signature. However, thermomagnetic measurements suggest an unexpected ferromagnetic transition (Tc =... -
Structure of protic ionic liquids mixed with formamide derivatives.
Mixtures of protic ionic liquids (PIL) and polar, protic molecular liquids (MLs) are attracting great attention. Due to the ionic nature of PILs and the role of hydrogen bonding... -
Magnetic and crystal structure of goethite FeOOD under pressure
We propose the first high P/T neutron diffraction measurements on goethite (FeOOH), both the ambient pressure alpha- as well as the high-pressure epsilon-phase, in the P/T range... -
Sensing Sulphur Dioxide in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Micro...
We seek to develop new materials for sensing and removal of toxic gases (esp., SO2) and request 2 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
Is cloud water nitrate radical chemistry important in oxidising thin films on...
Projected climate change is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity, important climatic effects.... -
Why is Choline Arginate the Best Performing Bio-IL for Biomass Pretreatment?
The ionic liquid choline arginate [Ch][Arg] is more effective for coal pretreatment than other choline based amino acid ILs, but the underlying mechanism is unclear.... -
Atomic and pore structure of amorphous zeolites
We will investigate a series of amorphised zeolitic solids and determine the short and medium range order structures and more importantly the nature of pore-size when we go from... -
High Pressure Driven Spin States in LaCoO3
This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure structure of LaCoO3 and observing changes within this as the material undergoes some well...
