Study of CEF and intermultiplet transitions in CeRu4Sn6 using neutron scatter...
Abstract: Recently the intermetallic compound CeRu4Sn6 has attracted considerable attention due to Kondo insulator behaviour and a possible topological Kondo insulting ground... -
Analysis of Celtic coins from northern Italy
Our research group is working on the Celtic coinage from northern Italy and has already carried out two measurement sessions at ISIS. A selection of 25 coins (drachmas) has been... -
Structure Sequence in Ca(1-x)Nd2x/3TiO3 Ceramics
Microwave dielectric ceramics are used in communications devices. Such materials need high relative permittivity, high dielectric quality factor and be temperature stable.... -
Configurational and displacive disorder in the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Cubic cadmium(II) cyanide shows the most pronounced isotropic NTE effect known, with behaviour more than twice as extreme as that of better known materials such as ZrW2O8. This... -
Which is it? ¿ Neutrons distinguish monolayers xrays can¿t.
We have obtained the monolayer structure diffraction patterns from several iodoalkanes adsorbed on graphite, of interest in the study of non-covalent bonding. However, it is... -
Low-energy magnetic excitations in the superconducting state of Sr2RuO4: open...
We propose to study the magnetic fluctuations of the unconventional superconductor Sr2RuO4 in the superconducting state extending our previous experiments on a cold triple-axis... -
Dental Cements and Inelastic Neutron Scattering: Meeting the Challenges of To...
In typical odontological studies water sorption in the restoration material is determined by weighing freshly mixed cement at regular intervals. In the case of resin-modified... -
In-Situ Studies of Alternative Mobile-Ions for High-Temperature Thermal Batte...
Whilst rechargeable batteries continue to take over the consumer electronics market, they are unsuitable to replace specific battery technologies, such as the thermal battery,... -
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... -
Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -

Structural Distortions in the Spin Ladder Compounds Ba2CuTe1-xWxO6
Ba2CuTeO6 has garnered considerable interest as the combination of stacking sequence and Cu2+ displacements lead to a magnetic geometry that reproduce the effects of a spin... -
Cryopreservation of liver cell spheroids used in artificial liver bio-transpl...
The development of new cryopreservation strategies has major potential in medicine, in particular for storage of biological matter. The detailed characteristics of the cooling... -
Universal Quantum-Critical Dynamics of a Two Dimensional Antiferromagnet
We have recently discovered a pressure-induced quantum phase transition (QPT) at 4.3 kbar in the gapped quantum magnet piperazinium hexachlorodicuprate (PHCC) by means of... -
Continued studies of materials in the BiFeO3-KNbO3 solid solution
In recent years there has been a resurgence in research dedicated to ferroelectric materials primarily due to the combination of the requirement for Pb-free replacements for... -
Using neutron reflectivity from monolayer models of bacterial cell membranes ...
Antimicrobial peptides are being investigated as an alternative to antibiotics, as bacteria seem less able to acquire resistance to them. We have been investigating the way in... -
Modulation in Molecular Materials - Variable Temperature
Modulation occurs when there is ordering on two (or more) length scales. When the ratio of these is an integer, the modulation is said to be commensurate, i.e. one ordering is... -
Interplay of magnetism and superconductivity in the iron-based spin ladder Ba...
Iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) have been an essential research area in condensed matter physics. Spins of iron sites forming a long periodic configuration, called the... -
Investigation of a Potential realization of the Nersesyan-Tsvelik Model in (N...
We propose to investigate the highly one-dimensional (1D) S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet (NO)[Cu(NO3)3] which is a potential realization of the Nersesyan-Tsvelik model. The... -
Templating of titania films in cationic-anionic surfactant polymer solutions
In this proposal we wish to continue our recent work using polyelectrolyte-surfactant films as templates for inorganic structures, in this case titania....
