How Encapsulated is a Sodide? Li+Na--EtNH2 vs Li+e--EtNH2
We have recently begun to look at how large, polarisable alkalides (group 1 metal anions) are solvated in solution. This proposal aims to determine how ethylamine is able to... -
The structure of metal-ammonia Ogg glasses
In this application we will conduct the first detailed study of the structure of glassy metal-ammonia systems ? so-called Ogg glasses, named after the person who first proposed... -
Free volume calibration of Polystyrene (PS) bulk above and below its glass tr...
Free volume theory has successfully predicted and described all of the liquid-to-solid transitions in hard sphere system. However, in polymer system, the exact molecular picture... -

In Situ Measurement of the Spin Seebeck Effect
The spin Seebeck effect is a newly discovered phenomenon that if harnessed, could result in a significant improvement of the efficiency of thermoelectric energy generators. Spin... -
A Total Scattering Study of Aqueous Dopamine Under Conditions of Increased Hy...
We request 3 days on SANDALS to study the interactions of the neurotransmitter dopamine hydrochloride in a 1:19 methanol:water mixture and also in an aqueous 3M NaCl solution.... -
The structure of ammonia borane in ammonia and THF
In this proposal we aim to understand the solvation of AB by two of the most important solvents ? ammonia and THF. Neutron diffraction is a key technique in this context because...
