In our paper ‘Towards an ecosystem service-based method to quantify the filtration services of mussels under chemical exposure’...

Stress corrosion cracking is an important degradation mechanism that is threatening the structural integrity of pressurised water reactors throughout the world. AREVA has...

The Bragg edge transmission technique (BET) is a diffraction method exploiting the edges appearing in the transmitted neutron spectra crossing polycrystalline materials and is...

Approved proposal under the ICRD Scheme Proposal ICRD0003

Perovskite oxides exhibit a large array of interesting electronic properties. Owing to their difficult synthesis (requiring extremely high pressures) the MOsO3 Osmates offer a...

We ask for 3 days on TOSCA to conduct Inelastic Neutron Spectroscopy on Na encapsulated in silica gel materials (Na-SG) and for in situ formation of Na-amide encapsulated in...

Neutron Resonance Capture Analysis (NRCA). NRCA is a valid and effective experimental tool for the elemental analysis of objects (e.g. the metallic ones), especially those of...

Previous uSR measurements on chemically produced graphene showed that, apart from a slowly relaxing graphite-like fraction, approximately 40% of the implanted muons are trapped...

Stress corrosion cracking is an important degradation mechanism that is threatening the structural integrity of pressurised water reactors throughout the world. Dissimilar weld...

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...

The goal of this proposal is to measure the diffuse scattering in Beta-Ti Gum Metal. We have measured the phonon dispersion curves and have found several soft-phonon anomalies...

We have developed a new class of ferritic steels strengthened by hierarchical precipitates (HPs) of Ni2TiAl/NiAl or a single precipitate (SP) Ni2TiAl for applications as...

We propose to determine the bronze composition of the different parts of two Renaissance Bronzes. These bronzes are of mutiple parts which have been joined together. Added by...

We request 3 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus, to perform in-situ neutron diffraction and thermogravimetric studies of the decomposition of deuterated alkaline amidoboranes....

Approved proposal under the ICRD Scheme Proposal ICRD0003

The intermetallic family R5T4 (R = rare earth, T = Si or Ge) exhibit a wide range of magnetic phenomena (eg., magnetic order, GMR, and enhanced magnetocaloric effect) which are...

The aim of this proposal, which is part of a PhD project, is to investigate ordering of In and Sn in the solid solution Co3Sn2-xInxS2 (0<=x<=2). All members of this family...

Novel cathode materials for rechargeable batteries have been under intense investigation since high cost and toxicity of current Li-ion batteries. We propose to study the...

Recent work on self assembling monolayers with diisocyano linkages have shown their great potential for application to photovoltaics. The next step is to determine the...

Welds in safety critical applications are subject to structural integrity assessments where residual stress plays a key part. Because residual stress predictions are unreliable,...
