High-pressure, high-temperature studies of energetic materials - RDX and HMX
One of the aims of this proposal is to quench to ambient pressure a metastable form of the widely used secondary explosive RDX. This is formed above ~4.5 GPa and 448 K but is... -
Pressure and Temperature-Induced Phase Transformations in PbZrO3-BiFeO3 Ceramics
The proposed experiment involves identification of the phase boundaries and determination of the crystal structures of PbZrO3-BiFeO3 (PZ-BF) ceramics as a function of... -
Copy of: Pressure induced phase switching magnetic ordering in BiFeO3-PbTiO3
This experiment seeks to continue previous work on PEARL, whereby the phase is altered in the room temperature multiferroic BiFeO3 - PbTiO3 using hydrostatic pressure with the... -
A high-pressure study of monovalent bifluorides
This proposal seeks PEARL beam time to conduct the first high-pressure neutron diffraction study of the monovalent azides XDF2, where X = Na, ND4, Cs and Tl. In so doing, we...
