This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure crystallographic and magnetic structure of LaFeO3. LaFeO3 is a characteristic example of...

Recently we have suggested that negative thermal expansion materials will also show an effect called pressure-induced softening, where shown that the elastic stiffness is...

CaSiO3 perovskite is the third most abundant mineral in the Earth's lower mantle; it also occurs as a major phase at lower pressures and temperatures in subduction zones, where,...

This proposal aims to explore cheap and environmental-benign cosurfactants (or cosolvents) for yielding CO2-philic hydrocarbon surfactant/water/CO2 microemulsions (W/CO2...

We propose to study the structure of liquid CO2 by neutron diffraction under high pressure and high temperatures to 6 GPa / 800 K. Carbon dioxide belongs to the most fundamental...

There is a well-documented track record of research into water-in-CO2 (w/c) microemulsions. Using newly discovered CO2 compatible surfactants, the next step is to explore...

Shale is an increasingly viable source of economic quantities of natural gas worldwide. Most of the gas is contained within the fine pores, thus characterizing accessibility and...

Studies by the Bristol group, and elsewhere [1, 2], have shown that highly branched hydrocarbon chains is the key factor for generating effective non-fluorous CO2 philic...
