Null Isotope Study of Lithium Borogermanate Glasses
Alkali borogermanate glasses are topologically complex, in that [BOn] (n = 3, 4)and [GeOn] (n = 4, 5, 6) polyhedra may all coexist. Equilibrium between these structural units... -
Nuclear quantum dynamics across the structural phase transition in an organic...
Inspired by the calorimetric and dielectric properties studies on a novel organic anitferroelectric compound, dtBBP - CLA , this proposal seeks to compare and extend the... -
Magnetic structure of a new quantum magnet
SrCuTe2O6 is a quantum magnet featuring spin-1/2 magnetic ions that are coupled intoantiferromagnetic chains with frustrated interchain coupling. An ideal... -
Investigation of residual stress relaxation in ancient metals
The detection of residual stresses in ancient metals can allow researchers to understand method of manufacture, and non-destructive neutron diffraction offers access to museum... -
Surveying Hebel-Slichter peaks in conventional-ish superconductors
The presence of a Hebel-Slichter peak in NMR or µSR measurements just below the critical temperature of superconductors is taken to be strong evidence for conventional behaviour... -
First experiment with a pulsed field magnet at ISIS or how to break the 15T b...
We propose to use a pulsed magnet system tried and tested at several neutron and synchrotron facilities in conjunction with the new high flux diffractometer WISH to perform the... -
Tracking spring-type motions in inorganic helices
Materials with helical and double helical structure motifs are prone to display fascinating spring-type behaviour, i.e. a shallow energy surface along the spring-axis in which... -
ToF ND investigation of Medieval double-edged swords
The European Medieval double-edged sword develops in the 11th century from the Viking Age sword. Already in the 10th century, some of the finest examples of the Ulfberht type of... -
Magnetic ordering in CaFe3O5 and CaFe5O7
This proposal is to explore the evolution of magnetic ordering in two members of the homologous series CaFe2O4(FeO)n with n = 1, & 3, and to correlation the behaviour of the... -
Neutron Spin resonance in the Fe-based silicide superconductor LaFeSiH
The iron-based superconductors (Fe-SC) are one of the most active and challenging topics in condensed matter physics. Very recently some of us (F. Bernardini et al.) have... -
Texture and 3D strain pole figure measurement of engineering components by GEM
The proposed experiment is to measure texture and strain tensor for specimens made by Direct Laser Deposition (DLD) and Linear Friction Welding (LFW) techniques. The... -
INS Determination of the Surface Properties of Nanoparticle Pollutants
Metal oxide nanoparticles are a form of pollution generated by a number of industrial procedures, and there is evidence that this class of nanoparticle can have a detrimental... -

Neutron Powder Diffraction Experiments on Ternary Alkali Metal Palladium and ...
Na2PdC2 and Na2PtC2 are the first examples of ternary alkali metal transition metal acetylides. They were synthesized and structurally characterised by our group in 2001 based... -
Metastable phase formation and memory effects in barium borate glasses.
BaB4O7 glass crystallises to different polymorphs of the same composition depending on the prior thermal history of the glass and the surface area of the sample. This indicates... -
Investigation of the impact of mechanical twinning on the thermal expansion b...
We request three days of beam-time on POLARIS to investigate the influence of thermally-induced twinning on the thermal expansion behaviour of polycrystalline calcite....
