Time of flight-resolved gamma background measurements on VESUVIO
Gamma background is one of the main factors limiting the current VESUVIO capabilities. We aim at a characterisation of the time of flight dependence of the gamma background.... -
Probing the structure of liquids above a metal-oxide interface
Simulations have demonstrated that mimicking the metal-oxide interface in porous media produces significant variations in the solvents structure over the metal and the oxide for... -
Hydration of phenylalanine at high pressure
Much of the detail regarding the causes of pressure-induced unfolding has been revealed from molecular dynamics simulations. However, these simulations have focused mainly on... -
Magnetic Structures of the RMnSbO (R = La, Nd) Oxy-Antimonides
The aim of the proposed experiment is to determine the temperature dependence of the ordered magnetic structures of LaMnSbO and NdMnSbO. These oxy-antimonides are related to the... -
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... -
Interaction of the counteracting osmolytes TMAO and urea in aqueous solutions
TMAO is a naturally occurring protecting osmolyte which stabilizes proteins and influences intermolecular interactions. Like some other osmolytes it counteracts the effects of... -
Hydration of NMA
We propose to study the hydration of N-methylacetamide (NMA) at ambient conditions and at two concentrations, namely 1 NMA : 50 H2O and 1 NMA : 15 H2O, by applying the isotopic... -
Solvent-gelator interactions in supramolecular gels
An intriguing case of self assembly is the formation of supramolecular gels. Small organic "gelator" molecules in solution self assemble into a fibrous network which forms gels... -
Structure of Confined Salivary Films
Lubrication by saliva is a key factor in oral health and food consumption. It is know that salivary lubrication is mediated by the thin proteinaceous film i.e., the pellicle,... -
The quest for attractive divalent sulfur - oxygen interactions
Weak nonbonded interactions between a divalent sulfur and an oxygen atom have attracted growing interest because of their roles in determining the structure and the biological... -

Local microstructure investigations of lignin-derived hard carbon
Sodium ion batteries (NIB) are promising alternatives to the current lithium ion batteries: sodium is cheap, sustainable, and has similar properties to lithium. Search for an... -
A Total Scattering Study of Dopamine, L-DOPA and Norepinephrine Aqueous Solut...
We request 5 days on Sandals to study the interactions of the neurotransmitters dopamine, L-dihydroxyphenylalanine and norepinephrine in aqueous solution. The interactions of... -
Study of alcohols by Transmission and Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering measu...
Many of the structural and dynamical properties of alcohols are due to the existence of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. It is of general interest the study of their dynamic and... -
Demonstration of the elementary cell of a new compact neutron collimator
The INFN-Italy ANET collaboration developed a new design of neutron collimator that should be capable of greatly reducing the distances needed to collimate thermal neutron beams... -
Solvation and structure of iron oxide in a choline chloride/oxalic acid deep ...
We aim to investigate the solvation of iron oxide and zinc oxide in an environmentally friendly deep eutectic solvent system in order to understand how to engineer these new... -
Effect of Variation in the Anion on the Bulk Nanostructure of Protic Ionic Li...
In a recently published note we presented the first experimental evidence (obtained using the LoQ instrument at ISIS) for nanoscale segregation of short (< C4) alkyl chain... -
Unraveling the structural ordering of water in amorphous calcium carbonate us...
Calcium carbonates make up some of the most abundant minerals in the world. They are of great importance in geology and in the field of biomaterials as well as having several... -
Model Amphiphilic Deep Eutectic Liquids
Deep eutectic liquids (DELs) - mixtures of high melting-point solids that form stable liquids near room temperature ¿ have recently emerged as a new class of novel solvents with... -
The effect of confinement on the structure of alcohol-water mixtures
Compared with gas phase reactions, liquid phase catalytic processes are complex due to the effect of the solvent. The solvent controls many aspects of the overall reaction...
