Revising the onset of anharmonicity in proteins
Our previous INS studies of ¿dry¿/hydrated apoferritin show that the hydrated protein undergoes a dynamical transition, Td, at 200K. Such behavior, first modeled by Doster et al... -
Measurement of surface diffusion on Raney nickel
Many catalysts work by adsorbing molecules onto their surface to from a more concentrated phase, which increases the likelihood of reactants colliding, and reacting to form a... -
Further study of high pressure magnetic order and superstructure in BiNiO3 at...
Transition metal oxides make up a remarkable group of materials, exhibiting a wide variety of unusual electronic and magnetic properties. They have generated much interest, in... -
Thermal fluctuations of cold shock proteins from different flavours of extrem...
Extremophiles are organisms which survive and thrive in extreme environments. The proteins from extremophilic organisms have received considerable attention as they are... -
Is magnetic frustration behind the tetragonal-to-orthorhombic transition in t...
It has been argued that the tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural transition found in all the parent phases of the Fe-pnictide superconductors is driven by frustration, and... -
Dynamic transition of Poly(ethylene glycol) with or without the solvation water
Water is the source of life, but the effects of hydration water on the dynamics and function of biological and bio-compatible macromolecules are still full of debates. Chen et... -
Crystal Field Study of the Rare Earth Pyrochlores Sm2Hf2O7, Sm2Zr2O7 and Dy2T...
Rare earth pyrochlores R2T2O7 have attracted attention because of the wide range of interesting and unusual magnetic behavior they present, in particular the observation of... -
Magnetic ordering and structure phenomena in the rare-earth CeRu2Al10 compound.
This proposal is for crystal-structure (on HRPD) and magnetic ordering (on WISH) studies on the local-moment compound CeRu2Al10. It follows from our recent neutron studies at... -
Cs mixed cation lead perovskites
Organic-inorganic hybrid halide perovskites combine the optoelectronic properties commonly associated with high performance semiconductors with materials synthesis or processing... -
Me-ND311BD4: a temperature dependent study of its crystal structure and decom...
We request 4 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus to follow the structural changes of Me-ND4 11BD4 as a function of temperature. The high resolution of HRPD will allow us to...
