In the proposed experiments we extend previous work on characterization of aggregates formed by cationic conjugated polymers and oligomers in water. Particular emphasis will be...

We propose a series of neutron scattering measurement to determine the water structure in amorphous H2O/C60 fullerene vapour deposits. We believe that these samples, prepared by...

High temperature Bi2O3 has the highest oxide ion conductivity known for any material. It has an oxygen-deficient fluorite-based structure, with 25% of oxygen atoms missing from...

Replacing Na ions in NaxCoO2 with divalent Ca ions results in the formation of ordered arrays of divacancy clusters, rather than the trivacancy clusters found for the pure...

The aim of the experiment is to monitor the temporal evolution of gamma prime precipitates in three polycrystalline nickel base superalloys using Sans2D. This instrument is...

We intend to study the aggregation behaviour of the all-conjugated block catiocopolyelectrolyte PF2/6-P3MAHT in the presence of the biomacroanion guanosine triphosphate (GTP) in...

The acetone - chloroform system is the classic textbook example of a negative-pressure azeotrope, i.e. the vapour pressures of the binary mixtures are lower than expected for...

This proposal requests time to investigate the influence of an applied magnetic field on the oxyselenide Pr2O2Fe2OSe2. A metamagnetic transition involving ordering of Pr3+...

In the proposed experiments we aim to characterise the structures of aggregate species formed when divalent metal ions, such as calcium(II), interact with the anionic conjugated...

Advanced materials such as polycrystalline Ni superalloys put increased pressure on developing appropriate thermomechanical procedures, which avoid the generation of large...

Ni-base single crystal (SX) superalloys are advanced materials that are used in modern land-based gas turbine blades to achieve high operation performance. However localised...

Hydrogen bonds are ubiquitous in materials across the chemical spectrum, from inorganic to biological. They influence the structure, the functionality, and therefore the...

We intend to study the phase behaviour of 2 cationic polythiophenes, P3MAHT and P3ImiHT, inthe presence of the perfluorinated surfactant (C8 chain) PFOS and its hydrogenated...

The proposed experiment concerns the role of microstructure on the high temperature deformation behaviour of single crystal Ni-base superalloys. This class of material is of...

Experiments (many at ISIS) using crystallographic methods, total scattering, inelastic neutron scattering and theory have provided a detailed picture of the origin of strong...

We propose to map out the spin excitations in La2O2FeOSe2 using the MARI chopper spectrometer on a powder sample. Although the structure of La2O2FeOSe2 has some similarities to...

We extend previous work on aggregates formed by cationic conjugated oligomers in water with surfactants and...

Rafted microstructure has been observed in specific areas of a fully heat-treated blade at the end of the manufacturing process. The solution heat-treated blade is believed to...

The present proposal is part of a project to formulate a quantitative synergy between experiment and theory, complimenting the results the applicants have already established in...

In this proposal we request 3 days of beam time on HRPD to study the structure and phase transitions of XNbOP2O7 (X = Rb and ND4). These materials have been shown to undergo...
