Does financial development translate into a comparative advantage in industries that use more external finance? We use industry-level data on firms’ dependence on external...

Here we present a multi-proxy record from palaeolake Fucino (Abruzzo, Central Italy), acquired during the F1-F3 drilling campaign. This is the first continuous and...

MISANS is the combination of Modulation of Intensity Emerging from Zero Effort (MIEZE) and Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS). SANS is used to determine the microscopic...

We have prepared some new highly crystalline mixed-metals oxides using mild hydrothermal reaction conditions. Some of these are doped niobates, related to the important...

We request three days of beam-time on POLARIS to investigate the influence of thermally-induced twinning on the thermal expansion behaviour of polycrystalline calcite....

The thermoelectric properties of NaxCoO2 can be substantially improved by replacing Na ions by cations of higher valence. Our neutron diffraction studies on SXD for doping with...

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...

We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked...

Neutron reflectivity will be used to investigate the composition in the direction perpendicular to the substrate for films of blends of electron-donor...

The experiment will use neutron diffraction to analyse a hot-rolled matrix of dual-phase ZrNb alloys, in order to measure the macroscopic texture dependence on temperature,...

Non-ionic/metallosurfactant (P123/CTAF) mixed micelles are used as templates for the hydrothermal synthesis of mesoporous ferrisilicate materials. It was hypothesized that...

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...

Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly to lead to interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation....

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...

This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding how collagen based polypeptides interact with ionic surfactants using SANS. Both SDS and C12TAB will be...

The exceptional high temperature mechanical properties of Ni-base superalloys has resulted in their widespread use in high temperature applications. These alloys conventionally...

Topotactic reduction of YMnO3 with CaH2 yields three new reduced phases. Two of these phases appear to have compositions close to YMnO2.5 but with very different anion vacancy...

Lipopeptide surfactants are highly effective at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a general lack of understanding of the relationship between their molecular...

In extension of our previous study on particle size dependent solubility limits in nano-sized LiFePO4 we wish to extend our study to temperature dependent solubility limits in...

This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the solution aggregation of collagen based polypeptides and their interactions with model surfactants....
