Evaluation of inelasticity effects in diffraction
For total diffraction measurements using neutrons it is important to correct the data for inelasticity effects, especially for samples containing light atoms. Conventionally... -
Non invasive characterization though neutron diffraction of ancient Indonesia...
The keris is the distinctive weapon of Malaysia and Indonesia. It is found in a variety of forms but, typically, it is an elongated dagger or short sword of slender proportions... -
In situ deformation and transformation studies of zirconia dental ceramic
Yttria-stabilised polycrystalline zirconia ceramics (Y-TZP¿s) possess a unique combination of properties that make them attractive for dental prosthetic applications: strength,... -
Identification of the empirical forging methods and microstructural propertie...
In our previous experiment RB 1810171 we analysed a group of three Japanese swords from an important private collection. Among the samples included in the proposal, we found... -
Spin dynamics in the 1/3rd magnetization plateau phase of a triangular quantu...
This experiment is part of our research programme to explore novel quantum phases and phase transitions induced by magnetic field in frustrated quantum magnets. The quasi-2D... -
Neutron transmission strain tomography: a novel approach to strain mapping
Strain tomography is a novel approach to the analysis of residual strain fields that involves deconvolution of unknown distributions of residual elastic strains from redundant... -
An assessment of the short-range order in the Ti-Al alloy system with variati...
Owing to their low density and high strength, titanium alloys are extensively used in the aerospace industry. As the amount of aluminium in the alloy is increased, it is known... -
Diffraction 'artifacts' due to shape, size and thickness variation in copper,...
In relation to TOF flight neutrondiffraction experiments conducted on Renaissance sculpture, we are proposing a systematic study of controlled shape, size and thickness effects... -
A SANS Study on the Influence of Shear on Peptide Fibrillisation
Time-resolved SANS will be performed to investigate the effect of shear on the fibrillisation of insulin following denaturation. The rheological response will be measured... -
Magnetic structure below the metal-insulator transition of Pb2CaOsO6
This proposal is part of a project in which we explore the unusual physics of 5d transition metal oxides. Using a special high pressure technique, we have synthesised first... -
Technological study of Nuragic Bronze boat models (Sardinia, Italy)
The production of Nuragic Bronze Figurines represents a rich historical archive that provides key information not only about the iconography but also about the metal production... -
Temperature and environment dependence of the isotope effect in muonated radi...
We plan to measure the hyperfine constants for both the muon and the equivalent hydrogen atom in a small muonated radical using time-differential ALC. We will follow this as a... -
quantitative dark field imaging using Larmor labelling
We will determine whether a neutron technique called dark field Lamor imaging can provide quantitative information about the spatial distribution of small inhomogeneities in... -
Study on Chinese Ancient Iron Swords and Knives by Neutron
Iron sword and knife were two important weapons in history. They represented the highest level of iron technology available in Iron Age. Xian is the starting place of the Silk... -
ToF ND investigation of Medieval double-edged swords
The European Medieval double-edged sword develops in the 11th century from the Viking Age sword. Already in the 10th century, some of the finest examples of the Ulfberht type of... -
Development of High-Resolution Neutron Transmission Strain Mapping: Compariso...
High-resolution neutron transmission strain mapping is under development at ISIS to be implemented at IMAT, ENGIN-X and the newly proposed ε-MAP instrument. Transmission...
