L-Alanine above 10 GPa
Recently we studied L-alanine to 9.85 GPa. This is the highest pressure for which structural data are available for any organic system larger than methane. The results enabled... -
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... -
A high pressure structural study of the charge transfer complexes of pyridine...
We propose a high-pressure powder neutron diffraction study of the simple donor-acceptor complexes (C5D5N)...ICl and (C5D5N)...IBr . These are the simplest structurally... -
Pressure effect on structural phase transition in the Kagome antiferromagnet ...
RBaCo4O7 (R = rare earth ion or Y) compositions belong to class of strongly frustrated antiferromagnets. Their crystal structure is build up of alternating Kagome and triangular... -
High-pressure, high-temperature studies of energetic materials - FOX-7, CL-20...
The aims of this proposal are to explore the high-pressure, high-temperature behaviour of 3 important energetic materials - FOX-7, CL-20, and ADN. These experiments are expected...
