INS investigation of the effects of hydration on the dynamics of natural silk...
Silk materials have been the focus of renewed attention because they exhibit extraordinary mechanical strength and toughness.Two main factors are critical for understanding... -
Local Structure within Fluorite-Pyrochlore Solid Solutions
This proposal requests 6 days beamtime on the Polaris diffractometer to study the nature of the local structure within two systems which have been reported to show a solid... -
A High pressure investigation of the Binary carbonyls of group 7 M2(CO)10 M =...
The structures of two binary metal carbonyls containing a metal-metal bond Mn2(CO)10 and Re2(CO)10 will be studied as a function of pressure. Both these molecules undergo a... -
Copy of: Search for density and diffusivity water-like anomalies in a ionic melt
Many network-forming liquids exhibit water-like thermodynamic and kinetic anomalies, the most obvious of which concerns the presence of a regime of anomalous densities as well... -
Electric field effects on the spin correlation length in multiferroic delafos...
In a previous WISH experiment, we have succeeded in determining the incommensurate cycloidal magnetic structure of AgFeO2, which induces a ferroelectric polarization[1].... -
NR study of binding of short antimicrobial alpha-helix peptides with model li...
In this work we explore how our rationally designed peptide amphiphiles bind onto lipid monolayers using neutron reflection combined with deuterium labelling to the lipids,... -
Towards the development of carbonitrides as novel two-stage regenerable reage...
We are examining a number of cobalt-molybdenum carbonitrides as possible catalysts for reactions that produce nitrogen-containing organic molecules. There is good evidence that... -
Simultaneous Microwave Dielectric Spectroscopy and Neutron Diffraction to Mon...
With appropriate storage materials, ammonia has great potential as a fuel. We propose to use a novel piece of equipment, which combines microwave and neutron diffraction... -
Copy of: The Effect of Pressure on the Crystal Structure Titanium Tetrachloride
At ambient pressure and temperature TiCl4 is a fuming yellow liquid. On cooling it forma a solid composed of essentially isolated tetrahedral molecules; the same structure is... -
Kinetics of protein and protein mixture adsorption at the air/water interface
Many proteins exhibit a lag in lowering the surface tension at the air-water interface. The origin of this lag is not well understood either experimentally or theoretically. The... -
Probing the magnetic and structural correlations in Co1-xNixTeO4: (x=0, 0.5 &...
Transition metals (TMs) and their complexes are current examples of such materials which show new functionality, improved performances and greater versatility and have become... -

Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -
Investigation of the Evolution of Broken Time Reversal Symmetry in Pr1-xNdxOs...
PrOs4Sb12 is a 1.85 K superconductor. Its superconductivity shows unconventional behavior, and the originating mechanism remains unknown. One characteristic is an internal... -

quantitative dark field imaging using Larmor labelling
We will determine whether a neutron technique called dark field Lamor imaging can provide quantitative information about the spatial distribution of small inhomogeneities in... -
Neutron critical opalescence near the critical points of 3He and 3He-4He mixt...
Building on our preliminary neutron transmission results from the CRISP instrument (see below), we propose to undertake a detailed study of critical fluctuations in 3He near its... -
Examining the topological nature of superconductivity in PdTe2
PdTe2 was found to be superconducting below Tc = 1.7 K and a Type-II Dirac semimetal. A protected bulk Dirac point arises from a band inversion that occurs within the Te...
