The aim of this research is to determine structural systematics of a series of materials with compositions and structures related to the mineral umbite (K2ZrSi3O9·H2O) and some... -
Magnetic excitations in the half-metallic shandite Co3Sn2S2
Co3Sn2S2 is a metallic ferromagnet with Tc = 177 K, which crystallizes in a shandite-type structure. Below the Curie temperature its electronic structure forms a half-metal... -
Arrested states of clay-water suspensions
The unprecedented simultaneous accessibility of the low and high Q region available on NIMROD allows to tackle the issue of ageing of colloidal systems from the point of view of... -
Interaction of Chiral Amino Acids with Hydrated Vermiculite Clay
The aim of this proposal is to obtain an atomistic understanding of the adsorption of chiral amino acids on mineral surfaces. Our previous experiments on LOQ and at ILL on D16... -
The structure of clay swelling inhibitors TMA and TEA under oil-field conditions
Shale swelling is particularly problematic in the oil and gas exploration sector, as environmentally friendly water based muds are invariably used during drilling operations to... -
