Water librations in proton conducting hydrated alkali thio-hydroxogermanates
We propose to perform a systematic study of the intermolecular librational mode of molecular water in the proton conducting hydrated alkali thio-hydroxogermanates... -
Magnetic Properties of Rare-Earth Carbonates
We have prepared a new family of rare-earth carbonates, R4(CO3)6(H2O)2en (R=Dy-Lu). With the exception of R=Er, all materials exhibit a steadily decreasing meff below 70K. The... -
Phase separation in confined polymer blends studied by SERGIS
We intend to study the phase separation morphology of confined polymer blends. Interface forces will impose morphologies different from those in the bulk. In our experiments the... -
Study of structural and phase transitions of carbon dioxide confined in the n...
When fluids are confined in pores with dimensions in the nanoscale, their properties differ from the bulk mainly due to the solid-fluid interactions and the finite pore size.... -
Excitations, BEC, and partially ordered states of liquid 4He in disorder
We propose measurements of the elementary phonon-roton (p-r) excitations of liquid 4He confined in porous MCM-41 (45 Å pore diameter) at wave vectors Q ¿ beyond the roton¿, 2.4... -
The structure of hydrogen in calcium-ammonia-graphite: an in situ time resolv...
The aim of this proposal is to determine the in-plane and out-of-plane structure of H2 in the two dimensional galleries of stage-I calcium-ammonia-graphite intercalates: this... -
Inelastic neutron scattering of alpha and beta anomers of xylose and glucose:...
Carbohydrates are one of the major classes of biomolecules that make up most of the organic matter on earth and serve as energy stores, fuels and metabolitic intermediates. They... -
Surface structures of polycations in confined geometries
A second-generation surface force style apparatus has been developed to probe the inter-surface and near-surface structures under compressive forces. Systems of current academic... -
Study of structural and phase transitions of carbon dioxide confined in the n...
The properties of fluids confined in nanopores differ from the bulk mainly due to the solid-fluid interactions and the finite pore size. Such phenomena are of fundamental... -
Structural characterization of water confined in MCM-41
By combining NDIS experiment and EPSR simulation we have been able to show with a previous experiment (RB 720500) two main phenomena for water confined in the MCM silica matrix.... -
A dynamical and structural study of confined Methane Hydrate by SE-QENS, SE-S...
Bulk samples of methane hydrate at cryogenic temperatures have been shown to contain methane in the hydrate cage that is nearly in a state of free rotation. There is an interest... -
Local structure of polymers in confined geometries in surface dominated samples
This proposal is focused on developing an understanding of how surfaces affect the local structure of synthetic polymers. There is considerable evidence for a strong variation... -
Dynamic behaviour of confined hydro gen in natural (COx) and synthetic clays ...
The experiment is aimed to unravel the diffusion mechanism of hydrogen in Callovo-Oxfordian clays, which are candidates to be used as backfill material in long term geological... -
Bose-Einstein Condensation in solid helium confined in porous media
We propose measurements of the Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) fraction n0 of solid helium confined in porous media. A superfluid fraction in solid helium in Vycor, in aerogel... -
An investigation into the structure of zeolites ZSM-5, Beta and Y as a functi...
The inelastic neutron scattering spectrum of commercial samples of industrially important zeolites ZSM-5 (Si/Al ratios: 25, 30, 80,and 280), Beta (Si/Al ratios: 25, 38, and 300)... -
An Investigation of the electric field dependence of the dynamics of the Hydr...
The purpose of this investigation is to investigate the electric field dependence of the dynamics of the melting transition of bulk and confined water with an applied electric...
