Chemical composition of manganese nodules and crusts from the Pacific and Ind...
The first part of this thesis includes some topics of a non-geochemical nature but which are of importance in interpreting the geochemistry of nodules. The points covered... -
(Table, page 351-359) Chemical composition of manganese nodules and crusts fr...
Chemical and mineralogical analyses of manganese nodules from a large number of widely spaced localities in the Pacific and Indian Oceans have shown that their mineralogy and... -

Simultaneous measurements of ND, BET, PGAA and NR at INES beam line
Neutron based techniques for materials study are important in fields ranging from chemistry, physics and archaeometry. Neutron diffraction gives information on phases and... -
Investigation into the reversibility of TiCl4 doped NaALH4
Hydrogen Storage still remains the technology bottleneck for a more widespread use of hydrogen. Solid complex hydrides such as amides, alanates and borohydrides have been... -
Diffraction of potassium-intercalated graphitic nanofibres with hydrogen
Nanostructured carbons are promising precursors for a high-capacity reversible hydrogen storage material with fast kinetics, but the interaction of H2 with pure graphite is too... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies on CaCrFe3As3 compound
We propose to obtain 3 days of beam time on SXD equipped with its new top-loading CCR to analyze CaCrFe3As3 single crystals at different temperatures 10 K, 100 K and 300 K (the... -
INS on H2 adsorbed in microporous L-Isoleucyl-L-valine.
We intend to perform an inelastic neutron scattering experiment on para-H2 adsorbed in L-Isoleucyl-L-valine (IV) microporous systems using the TOSCA spectrometer. IV is one of a... -
Drug solvation in amphiphilic solutions: understanding how small molecules cr...
Understanding how drugs interact with physiologically relevant environments is crucial for the future of effective drug design. An important class of potential drugs are central... -
PROTON DYNAMICS IN NON AND PARTIALLY DEUTERIATED ETHYLAMMONIUM NITRATE IONIC ...
The field of ionic liquids is one of the hottest topics with the number of publications still growing exponentially. This is due to the negligible vapour pressure,... -
Quantum heating effect in molecular hydrogen
The goal of this proposal for beam time on MARI (direct geometry) is to independently confirm (or refute) our observation using VESUVIO (indirect geometry) of a novel quantum... -
The high pressure structure of deuterium
Of all the stable elements hydrogen(deuterium) is the least well studied from a structural point of view. Not one of its crystal structures has been fully charecterised. This... -
In situ studies on hydride diffusion and exchange in alkaline earth hydrides ...
Thermogravimetric analysis on alkaline earth hydrides in St Andrews has revealed a remarkably fast exchange of deuterium and hydrogen by alkaline earth hydrides at relatively... -
In-situ hydrogen decomposition studies of ammonia borane and the diammoniate ...
Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3... -
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... -
Neutron Total Scattering Studies on Disordered Hydrogen Storage Material Na2B...
We aim to use total scattering and pair distribution function (PDF) analysis to determine the local structure of the disordered amide-borohydride, Na2BH4NH2. We wish to... -
In situ Investigation of the Locations of Gas Molecules within a Decorated Po...
In the coming year, we plan to build upon the success of last cycle by carrying out more hydrocarbon studies of this porous material NOTT-300 and one of its iso-structural... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies on Double-Hydrogen-Bridged Diborane(4) Compound
The object of the proposed experiment is to definitively locate hydrogen atoms on the extraordinary short B¿B bond by single crystal neutron diffraction method. Because the... -
Interaction of Chiral Amino Acids with Hydrated Vermiculite Clay
The aim of this proposal is to obtain an atomistic understanding of the adsorption of chiral amino acids on mineral surfaces. Our previous experiments on LOQ and at ILL on D16... -
A study of hole injection efficiency for a model conjugated bilayer system
Polymer-based electronics have attracted huge interest due to their wide applicability to light emitting diodes, field effect transistors and photovoltaics. The aim of our...
