Inelastic Spectroscopy of the Mobile Phase of Ammonia Borane
Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. There has recently been work on a more mobile phase of AB (denoted AB*) which is formed (via the... -
Carbon dioxide methanation over novel nickel based catalysts
A team of physical chemists (Glasgow) will combine with a team of chemical engineers (Beijing University of Chemical Technology) to develop an improved understanding of the CO2... -
The application of INS to examine a Fischer-Tropsch-to-Olefin catalyst that h...
In conjunction with an industrial partner (Sasol Technology UK), the applicants have previously used INS measurements performed on the MAPS spectrometer to characterize a series... -
INS Study of Bio-oil on a Hydrodeoxygenation Catalyst
The Indonesian government has passed a new policy regarding a mandatory regulation for all gas stations nationwide to replace existing diesel fuel to B-20 biofuel. Bio-oil is a... -
SHINING THE BEAM ON BONES: CHARACTERISATION OF BURNED AND FOSSILISED SKELETAL...
Neutron spectroscopy is applied to study bones exposed to anaerobic burning or fossilisation. The results thus obtained will complement previous data gathered by the team on... -
Direct search for high-energy excitations in ferrimagnetic CrCl2(pyz-d4)2
Although previous INS experiments on CrCl2(pyz)2 confirmed the magnetic origin of a weak dispersive low-energy mode below 1 meV, two major problems remain: (i) its energy scale... -

INS studies with MAPS of Nafion and model compounds
In the archetypal hydrogenoxygen proton exchange membrane fuel cell design, a proton-conducting polymer membrane (typically Nafion) contains the electrolyte solution that... -
Observation of intermediates on a transfer hydrogenation catalyst
The design and development of novel catalysts for chemical synthesis is incredibly important from both academic and industrial perspectives. Approximately 90 % of all commercial... -
Magnetic excitations from two-dimensional interpenetrating Cu framework in Ba...
The Heisenberg antiferromagnet is a well-known model used to describe the magnetic properties of layered and metal-organic Mott insulators which have been explored both... -
Understanding absorption of the energetic compound 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-on...
Insensitive munitions (IM) are munitions that will not react violently to accidental insult, thus they are relatively safe to handle and store. Ongoing research into IM has led... -
The chemisorption of hydrogen on cobalt
Cobalt based catalysts are widely used within industry for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) in the production of sulphur free diesel. Despite the wide application of cobalt... -
High energy spin excitations in SrCo2As2
the correlation degree in 122 iron pnictides mainly depends on the electronoccupancy of each orbital and that by doping electrons the correlation decreases monotonically. This...
