Inelastic neutron scattering from H_2 in binary clathrate hydrates
The proposing team is interested in exploring the rotational and translational dynamics of molecular hydrogen trapped in water-based cages (clathrate hydrates). These systems... -
The dynamics of a hydride in a metal cage: a study of [(Ph3P)2N] [HCo6(CO)15].
We propose to collect, on TOSCA, the IINS spectrum of the [(Ph3P)2N] [HCo6(CO)15] complex to obtain information on the dynamics of the interstitial hydride and the influence, on... -

We propose to measure the incoherent neutron spectra of lithium amide (LiNH_2) and imide (Li_2NH) at low temperature (T<20 K). These two substances belong to the Li-H-N... -
A wide-range energy and wave-vector transfer instrument for pulsed sources
Neutron scattering is a powerful technique to reveal structure and dynamics in condensed matter, espacially in hydrogen containing materials. For these systems, the experimental... -

In the proposed experiment ammonia borane (NH_3BH_3) will be investigated through incoherent inelastic neutron scattering on TOSCA at low temperature. Since it is well known... -
Proton diffusion in lithium imide: a quasi-elastic neutron scattering study
Li_2NH has been recently considered for H_2 storage applications. However, its low-T crystal structure is still controversial, with at least 6 options compatible with the... -
Proton quantum delocalization in lithium imide studied through neutron Compto...
we propose deep inelastic neutron scattering measurements on VESUVIO to investigate the short time proton dynamics in Li2NH. The latter belongs to the Li-H-N system, which has... -

The proposing team is interested in exploring the low-temperature quantum "rattling" dynamics of helium atom(s) trapped in water-based cages (namely the so-called "clathrate... -
Lattice vibrations of hydrogen impurities in a solid neon matrix
In recent incoherent inelastic neutron scattering experiments we have shown that the anharmonic single-particle dynamics of H2 can be measured with high precision in quantum... -
IINS investigation of magnesium hydride in nanoscale confinement
In this experiment MgH_2 impregnated into active carbon will be investigated through IINS. Since it is known that the enthalpy of formation of a material is lowered by... -

Discrete breathers in the high-temperature vibrational spectra of alkali halides
Inelastic neutron measurements on some selected polycrystalline alkali halides (namely LiBr, LiI, NaBr, NaI), where the mass difference between anions and cations is large, are... -
Radiation damage test of CCD cameras for neutron imaging applications
In the framework of the PANAREA project, aiming to the development of new instruments for neutron imaging on TS2, the determination of geometric, optic, electronic, and aging... -
Hydrogen bonding in amorphous formic acid
Formic Acid (FA) is a simple model for rotational isomerism, and it presents four different hydrogen bonding sites. In a recent study, we have elucidated the structure of FA in... -
Diffusion of molecular hydrogen into pre-formed THF clathrate hydrate
The proposing team has a well established experience in the use of neutron scattering on samples containing molecular hydrogen, and has recently studied some aspects of the...
