ForFun 1.0
ForFun is a database of linguistic forms and their syntactic functions built with the use of the multi-layer annotated corpora of Czech, the Prague Dependency Treebanks. The... -
A pair distribution function study to determine the local structure of the ti...
BaTiO3 is the prototypical ferroelectic perovskite and has been well studied for over 60 years. The standard structural picture is that it is cubic and paraelectric at high... -
Temperature Effects and Kinetics of Thiolipid Adsorption to Gold Surfaces
We have a programme investigating the structure and function of protein scaffolds oriented on gold surfaces using sulfur chemistry for attachment. The aim is to direct the... -
pH Responsive Polymer Blend Surfaces
Polymers, end-functionalised with carboxylic acid (COOH) groups do not normally segregate to film surfaces due to the high surface energy of these functionalities. However, we... -
Mechanisms of shear stability in emulsions
High internal phase water-in-oil emulsions can be efficiently stabilised by polymer amphiphiles for a static emulsion, and also show high shear stabillity even at elevated... -
Spin relaxation of short-lived spin-labelled radicals in solution
The spin relaxation rates of free radicals in solution can provide valuable information about the dynamics of molecular tumbling in solution, and solvent-radical interactions.... -
Determination of the self absorption of gamma emission induced by nuclear res...
We intend to perform some measurements with three NRCA gamma detectors in different geometric configurations in the INES block house in order to get information about the... -
Temperature induced structural phase transitions in BaPrO3 and acceptor doped...
The sequence of structural phase transitions that occur in distorted ABO3 perovskites as a function of temperature is of intrinsic interest for better understanding of the... -
Stochastic vs. Intermolecular Motions in Strongly Associated Liquids: The Cas...
Neutron scattering is a powerful technique to study stochastic motions in liquids but it requires an energy resolution well below the meV range. As a consequence, quasielastic... -
Determination of the density of states of liquid light and heavy water as a f...
Liquid light and heavy water are the most widely used moderator and reflector materials in nuclear reactors, however there is a lack of knowledge of the vibrational density of... -
Study of the S(Q, w) map of propane/propene adsorbed on non-charged ITQ-29 Ze...
Zeolites are perhaps the most successful microporous materials used for catalysis and separation processes in refineries and chemical industries[1-3]. This is due to the... -
Interlayer and Interparticle Water in Clays
Clay barriers are routinely used in nuclear waste repositories to isolate radionuclides from the biosphere. Such barriers have to be carefully designed to remain effective for... -
Understanding the true biological function of Plant Non Specific Lipid Transf...
Non specific lipid transfer proteins are a family of basic, cysteine rich proteins found in a wide range of plant species. The biotechnological role of these proteins in beer... -
Dynamics of trehalose-glycerol and lysozyme/trehalose-glycerol mixtures
The proposed experiment aims to study the dynamics of trehalose/glycerol mixtures and lysozyme in presence of trehalose/glycerol mixtures at different relative concentration.... -
Oxygen Vacancy Clusters in Pure and Doped CeO2-d
Oxide ceramics based on ceria, CeO2, have been the subject of considerable research for the role of solid electrolyte within solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), since their ionic... -
Simultaneous INS and Raman studies of lysozyme
The proposers have obtained a dispersive Raman spectrometer that is fibre optically coupled to a custom centrestick that will allow simultaneous Raman and neutron measurements.... -
Kondo temperature of YbInCu4 as function of pressure and substitution
Via chi¿¿(Q,E) we aim to investigate the dependence of the Kondo temperature TK of YbInCu4 on external pressure and substitution. YbInCu4 undergoes a first-order isostructural... -
DRUG EFFECTS ON INTRACELLULAR WATER DYNAMICS: CISPLATIN IN HUMAN CANCER CELLS
Water dynamics plays a vital role in biochemical processes in a living organism. Intracellular water structure and dynamics are known to be changed by the presence of... -
Hydrogen-bond ordering in hexamethylenetetramine hexahydrate as a function of...
The title compound, more succinctly referred to as HMT-hydrate, is a rare example of a water-framework zeolite structure with an organic guest molecule hydrogen bonded to the... -
Dynamics of Disorder in Relaxor-like Ferroelectric AB(HCO2)3 Frameworks
Relaxor ferroelectics are of significant interest for use as piezoelectric actuators in sensing applications and for high precision mechanical stages. Relaxors are traditionally...
