This proposal is to perform further SANS contrast measurements on three protein/DNA interactions currently worked on at the Research Complex at Harwell. This is part of an...

The mechanical properties of of austenitic stainless steels are thought to be improved by the phenomenon of deformation-induced martensitic transformation, which acts to...

We ask for 4 days on NIMROD to study the atomic- and intermediate-range order of ammonia-borane (AB) intercalated into mesoporous MCM-41. Ammonia borane is one of the leading...

The objective of this proposal is to identify the nature of species formed on the surface of the catalyst material when they are exposed to typical fuel cell feed stocks and...

This proposal is to perform SANS contrast measurements on three protein/DNA interactions currently worked on at the Research Complex at Harwell. This is part of an ongoing...

We propose to make neutron reflectivity measurements of the weak polyelectrolyte, poly(dimethy amino ethyl methacrylate), grown from two different surface densities of initiator...

Neutrons are almost never used to examine the role of phonons in materials with large magnetocaloric effects, despite the large magneto-elastic coupling often exhibited by them....

The present proposal is part of a project to formulate a quantitative synergy between experiment and theory, complimenting the results the applicants have already established in...

More than 6 million tonnes of carbon black per year are produced worldwide. The major part is used as reinforcing filler material in tyres and mechanical rubber goods. For...

We wish to use elastic (this experiment) and inelastic neutron scattering (experiments on MARI and MERLIN submitted in this round) as an approach to quantify the change in...

Neutron reflectivity will be employed to investigate the interaction between dimethylsulphoxide and monomolecular films of phosphatidylcholine. The monolayer will be used as a...

We are currently investigating the formation and structure of surfactant-templated polymer films comprised of cat-anionic surfactant mixtures and a variety of polymers. As we...

Organisms which live in the presence of large quantities of salt are known as halophilic (meaningsalt-loving). Halophilic proteins are of great interest due to their ability to...

Recently, there has been a significant amount of interest in quantum phase transitions and non-Fermi liquid (NFL) behavior exhibited by heavy-fermion compounds. Interestingly...

There are no magneto-structural correlations for clusters containing transition metal ions with non-zero orbital angular momentum in the ground state. Octahedrally coordinated...

An interesting family of Cu (II)-framework (NOTT100 series) has been synthesized at the University of Nottingham by the group of research of Martin Schröder. Earlier studies on...

Three MOFs samples with high hydrogen storage capacities at 77K, and high surface area, are willing to be analyzed. In order to investigate hydrogen interactions within the...

Of concern to the bioprocessing industry is the manner in which polysorbates included in solution formulations of antibodies affect the kinetics and equilibrium state of...

Tuning the interactions between different surfaces has technological benefits in areas such as adhesion, compatibilisation and nano-actuators. We shall study the interaction...

The objective of the present study is to investigate the interaction between PAMAM dendrimers and solid supported model biomembranes of high fluidity. These membranes consist of...
