Molecular modelling suggests that the antioxidant molecule EGCG "folds up" around the radical it captures, and therefore should shield the spin density from the environment....

In a previous experiment (RB910492) we have made preliminary measurements of the rates of addition of muonium to vitamins C and E, as suggested by the ISIS panel. These rates...

Preliminary measurements of [FeFe]-hydrogenase model complexes were made in a previous experiment using EMU (RB 1010177). The results were interpreted in combination with DFT...

Since ancient times it has been known that using boiling water to prepare tea ¿burns¿ the brew destroying the teas flavours & beneficial nutrients. One aspect of a ¿burnt¿...

We wish to measure the high field ALCs of a series of related functionalised acenes, to understand the role of the ligands on the electron spin relaxation, which is of...

The electron donor molecule BEDT-TTF (ET) provides a versatile building block for constructing molecular metals, superconductors, magnets and quantum spin liquids. A common...

In order to meet the UK's commitment to reduce 80% of greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, it is necessary make major advances in efficient, clean and secure energy conversion and...

Antioxidants are very important molecules because they can prevent or slow down the oxidative damage to our bodies. When our bodies use oxygen, free radicals are released which...

We wish to investigate the evolution of the low-field ALC peaks with temperature of TMS-Pentacene, so we can extract the temperature dependent electron spin relaxation rate. Our...

We propose to determine the possibility for H-addition occurring in the natural anti-oxidants lycopene, melatonin and Delta9-THC, by ALC-muSR on the HiFi instrument. Our...

Small-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) are of long standing interest to both magnetism and heterogeneous catalysis. Recent µSR studies of bare Au NPs encapsulated in mesoporous...
