This dataset contains detailed inventories of 7 large plots of mangrove forests in the Utría National Park in the Colombian Pacific Coast. The inventory consists of individual...

This dataset contains 248 benthic habitat maps, that were created from 31 underwater hyperspectral images captured with the HyperDiver device in 8 reef sites across the western...

The purpose is to follow a structural evolution as water soluble (normal curvature) micelles are gradually transformed into oil soluble (reversed curvature) aggregates. Although...

Hydrogen chloride exhibits a complex phase diagram account made of its simple molecular structure. Three crystalline phases are known to exist at ambient pressure below its...

Liquid HCl has attracted numerous studies focusing onto the role played by hydrogen bonding on the dynamical properties of this weakly associated liquid. Previous computational...

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...

The objective of this experiment is to characterise four particular high-pressure polymorphs of various hydrates discovered by us in recent years during work carried out using...

Despite interest in microemulsions as drug delivery vehicles, there is a lack of structural understanding to justify the formulations used. The present study examines the use of...

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....

The present proposal is part of a larger EPSRC project advancing the vibrational spectroscopy of silicate glasses. The project involves the techniques of IR and Raman...

These experiments are part of a much broader programme at the University of Reading. focused on the use of water-soluble half-acetylated chitosan as a mucoadhesive polymer,...

The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of different stimuli on a novel iron oxide core shell nanoparticles. The system is composed of a magnetite core with a...

Topotactic reduction of YMnO3 with CaH2 yields three new reduced phases. Two of these phases appear to have compositions close to YMnO2.5 but with very different anion vacancy...

Nitridosilicates and oxonitridosilicates (sions) gain more and more importance as host lattices for rare-earth doped phosphors in light emitting diodes. By means of...

BiNiO3, synthesized at high pressure, has the unusual charge distribution Bi3+0.5Bi5+0.5Ni2+O3 with ordering of Bi3+ and Bi5+ charges on the A sites of a highly distorted...

This project concerns fundamental and strategically important research underlying the development of new drug delivery vehicles. We propose to sample phase diagram of...

The main objective of the present work is to gain an understanding of the interaction of the cationic protein, cyt c with anionic lipid membranes. This objective will be...

Graphene has recently received widespread attention, after the discovery of its stability as a 2Dcrystal at ambient conditions and thanks to a wealth of possible applications....

We propose to carry out in-situ neutron diffractometry on testpieces of a latest-generation single crystal superalloy. This work is in support of current EPSRC projects...

We are investigating the ultra-rapid synthesis of transition metal carbides using microwave (MW) irradiation. Currently we are establishing an understanding of these reactions...
