Gold and Silver fire gilding of copper/bronze objects
By means of the NRCA signal generated by objects on the INES beam line we intend to quantify the amount of gold and silver applied on the surface of art objects. Replica samples... -
Mineral Phase Determination in Mesopotamian Seals
Mesopotamian seals and duckweights of the period 2000 - 1600 BC are often made of ironstone which is usually refered to as 'heamatite" In a recent study we have shown that these... -
Shear controlled crystallisation of low molar mass compound in a polymer matrix
The aim of this experiment is to explore a very recent discovery made by ourselves that shear flow can suppress the nucleation and growth of crystals of specific low molar mass... -
The correlation of metallography with neutron diffraction for Indo-Persian ar...
Our long-term aim is a detailed study of the manufacture of wootz (the so-called Damascus steel)a high-C% cast steel which was very slowly cooled and very carefully forged so as... -
Metal and Core Phase composition of Two Renaissance bronzes.
We propose to determine the bronze composition of the different parts of two Renaissance Bronzes. These bronzes are of mutiple parts which have been joined together. Added by... -
Test of scintillators for neutron radiography and tomography
The development of neutron radiography and tomography techniques using a portable equipment based on a compact neutron generator and innovative detector system is of great... -
Structural characterization of a series of polymer-protein conjugates for chr...
Polymer-protein conjugates have been designed to deliver an appropriate target growth factor to promote a more rapid healing of chronic wounds, an incredibly important area for... -
Microstructural characterization of Etruscan mirrors
The present proposal concerns the archaemetallurgical investigation of Etruscan mirrors. TOF-ND, NRCA and transmission measurements (Bragg edge) will be carried out on INES in... -
Metal and Core Phase composition of Renaissance bronzes.
We propose a continuation of the determine the bronze composition of the different parts of three Renaissance Bronzes. These bronzes are of mutiple parts which have been joined...
