Studying the lateral organisation of mixed phospholipid bilayers by diffuse n...
Off-specular neutron reflection is potentially a powerful technique for studying the lateral organisation of phospholipid bilayers. However, this has not yet been demonstrated.... -
Compositional analysis and working technique determination of Japanese artwor...
The Japanese section of the Stibbert Museum, in Firenze, is one of the most important in the world, excluding Japan for obvious reasons. Here many different artifacts are... -
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... -
Studies of magnetic polaron formation in EuS via RF-µSR
Experiment is proposed to identify magnetic polaron bound to the muon using RF-muSR. In recent experiment at TRIUMF magnetic polaron was found in transverse field and its... -
Non-local electrodynamics effect in an ¿extreme¿ low-k superconductor
We intend to perform accurate measurements of the magnetic field profile in the Meissner state of an ¿extreme¿ low-k superconductor (In, k = 0.06, k is the Ginzburg-Landau... -
A Study of the Reduced interfacial Magnetisation in a Heusler/Insualator Tunn...
For many Heusler compounds a spin polarisation close to 100% was predicted by band structure calculations. Thus if those materials are incorporated in magnetic tunnel junctions,... -
Structural investigation of perovskite-based ferroelectric materials through ...
The aim of this proposal is a comprehensive structural investigation of a technologically-important perovskite-based ferroelectric material xBiScO3-(1-x)PbTiO3 through studying... -
Compositional analysis and working technique determination of five Japanese T...
The Pitt Rivers is Oxford University¿s museum of anthropology and world archaeology. The Japanese material includes a large number of items of metalwork. Amongst these, the... -
Investigation of asphaltene nanoaggregate size under conditions of CO2 reserv...
The asphaltene fraction of crude oil is defined by its solubility parameters (insoluble in n-heptanebut soluble in toluene). Changes in conditions (temperature, pressure,... -
Conformational changes on interaction of cytochrome c with lipid monolayers.
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... -
RF-muSR in the gas phase: the muoniated ethyl radical
Radio-frequency muon spin resonance is an exceptional technique for studying free radicals, but it has not been applied to study radicals in the gas phase. In a previous... -
Probing the products of free radical reactions in ionic liquids
Many room temperature ionic liquids (salts with melting points near room temperature that hereafter will be referred to as ionic liquids) are ¿green solvents¿ for chemical... -
Transition metal carbides via novel, ultrafast microwave synthesis; Reaction ...
We are investigating the ultra-rapid synthesis of transition metal carbides using microwave (MW) irradiation. Currently we are establishing an understanding of these reactions... -
RF decoupling of the F-mu-F state
NMR has become an extremely sophisticated experimental technique because of the use of pulse sequences which allow the control and manipulation of a nuclear spin system or... -
Testing the efficacy of the spin echo technique combined with the dynamical t...
The sensitivity of the Spin Echo Resolved Grazing Incidence Scattering (SERGIS) to scattering geometry and sample specifications has been tested at OFFSPEC on gratings with... -
Kinetics of Muoniated Radicals Studied With Radio Frequency Muon Spin Resonance
Radio-frequency muon spin resonance is a powerful technique for studying free radicals and their reaction kinetics, but it has not yet been used to study complex reactions in...
