INS is an ideal means of probing the complete vibrational density of states of water adsorbed on the surface of metal oxide nanoparticles with minimal interference from the... -
Structural determination of non-stoichiomentric phases Li2+yND for 0<y<1
In a series of in situ neutron diffraction measurements from deuterium up-take in Li3N, the present authors have identified a novel non-stoichiometric 'quasi-imide' of... -
Inelastic Neutron Scattering Analysis of hydration layers on SnO2 and CoO Nan...
INS provides an ideal probe to determine the vibrational density of states of water confined on the surface of metal-oxide nanoparticles from which the thermodynamic properties... -
Investigation of the Q-dependent vibrational modes of MgD2 using poly-CINS
This proposal seeks to measure the poly-CINS (polycrystalline coherent inelastic neutron scattering) spectrum from magnesium deuteride (MgD2); a powder sample on the MARI... -
Inelastic Neutron Scattering Investigations of Hydration Layers on Cobalt Oxi...
We propose to collect INS data with TOSCA on nanoparticles of CoO and Co3O4 with different levels of hydration and size to study the effect of these parameters on the heat... -
Field dependence of Magnetic Excitations in the Hyperkagome Spin Liquid Candi...
We are proposing to characterize the short range magnetic correlations and dynamics in a single crystal of Yb3Ga5O12, a geometrically frustrated spin liquid candidate. We have... -
Investigation of the intermolecular dynamics of polycrystalline C60
Recent work by the proposers on modelling the coherent inelastic neutron scattering spectrum for polycrystalline samples of the two phases of this material has shown that all of... -
Contrast match on activated carbon: density and structure determination
At present there is a growing interest to porous carbon due to its large field of application. Porous activated carbons with their large surface area and microporosity are one... -
Copy of: Determination of the population of sp2 and sp3 bond lengths in graph...
The aim of this proposal is to examine the relative population of sp2 and sp3 bonds in a small number of graphitic samples, given that the bond length is 1.42A for standard sp2... -
Investigation of the temperature dependence of Q-dependent vibrational modes ...
This proposal seeks to measure the poly-CINS (polycrystalline coherent inelastic neutron scattering) spectrum from magnesium deuteride (MgD2); a powder sample on the MARI... -
An experimental test of the contribution of Mrozowski Cracks to the SANS from...
The life-limiting feature of AGR power reactors is probably radiation damage to the graphite moderators. This proposal (part of a collaborative EPSRC programme - Fundamentals of... -
Dynamical Signatures of Quantum Spin Ice in Tb2Ti2O7
We propose the first neutron scattering experiment on the frustrated magnet Tb2Ti2O7 in the presence of a magnetic field along [111]. This will allow us to uncover signatures of... -
INS Determination of the Surface Properties of Nanoparticle Pollutants
Metal oxide nanoparticles are a form of pollution generated by a number of industrial procedures, and there is evidence that this class of nanoparticle can have a detrimental...
