Spin-Analyzed SANS for Soft Matter Applications

June 20, 2017
Author(s)
WangChun Chen, John Barker, Ronald L. Jones, Kathryn Krycka, Shannon Watson, Cedric Victor Lucien Gagnon, T. Perevozchivoka, Paul Butler, Thomas R. Gentile
The small angle neutron scattering (SANS) of nearly Q-independent nuclear spin-incoherent scattering from hydrogen present in most soft matter and biology samples may raise an issue in structure determination in certain soft matter applications. This is

Chamber for Mechanical Testing in H2 with Observation by Neutron Scattering

June 1, 2017
Author(s)
Matthew J. Connolly, Peter E. Bradley, Andrew J. Slifka, Elizabeth S. Drexler
A gas-pressure chamber has been designed, constructed, and tested at a moderate pressure (3.4 MPa, 500 psi) and has the capability of mechanical loading of steel specimens for neutron scattering measurements. The chamber will allow a variety of in situ

Short Time and Structural Dynamics in Polypropylene Glycol Nanocomposite

June 1, 2017
Author(s)
Madhusudan Tyagi, R. Casalini, C. M. Roland
The dynamics of polypropylene glycol, both neat and attached to silica nanoparticles, were investigated using elastic neutron backscattering and dielectric spectroscopy. The mean square displacement measured by the former is suppressed by the particles at

Mechanistic Insights into the Formation of Porous Carbons from Gelatin

May 1, 2017
Author(s)
A. E. Danks, M. J. Hollamby, Boualem Hammouda, D. C. Fletcher, F. Johnston-Banks, S. E. Rogers, Z. Schnepp
Porous carbons are important for many applications. The biopolymer gelatin provides a simple route to functional carbon foams with77 multimodal porosity. In this paper, small angle neutron scattering is applied alongside other techniques to elucidate the

Effect of Phosphorylation on a Human-like Osteopontin Peptide

April 25, 2017
Author(s)
Samuel Lenton, Marco Grimaldo, Felix Roosen-Runge, Frank Schreiber, Tommy Nylander, Roger Clegg, Carl Holt, Michael Hartlein, Victoria Garcia Sakai, Tilo Seydel, Susana C. Marujo Teixeira
Osteopontin is a disordered phosphoprotein that is expressed in many species and tissues and has a range of distinct functions. A notable property of more highly phosphorylated isoforms of osteopontin is their ability to sequester nanoclusters of calcium

Performance of van der Waals Corrected Functionals for Guest Adsorption in the M 2 (dobdc) Metal-Organic Frameworks

April 24, 2017
Author(s)
Bess Vlaisavljevich, Johanna Huck, Zeric Hulvey, Kyuho Lee, Jarad A. Mason, Jeffrey B. Neaton, Jeffrey R. Long, Craig Brown, Dario Alfe, Angelos Michaelides, Berend Smit
Small molecule binding in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be accurately studied both experimentally and computationally, provided the proper tools are employed. Herein, we compare and contrast properties associated with guest binding with density

Combining Microscopic and Macroscopic Probes to Untangle the Single-Ion Anisotropy and Exchange Energies in an S = 1 Quantum Antiferromagnet

April 20, 2017
Author(s)
Jamie Brambleby, Jamie Lee Manson, Paul A. Goddard, Matthew B. Stone, Roger D. Johnson, Pascal Manuel, Jacquelina A. Villa, Craig Brown, Helen Lu, Shalinee Chikara, Vivien Zapf, Saul H. Lapidus, Rebecca Scatena, Piero Macchi, Yu-Sheng Chen, Lai-Chin Wu, John Singleton
We derive a synergistic approach to determine the spin Hamiltonian and field-temperature phase diagram for polycrystalline samples of S = 1 [Ni(HF 2)(pyz) 2]SbF 6 by exploiting a selected range of experimental techniques. Spatial exchange anisotropy was

Structural Features and Lipid Binding Domain of Tubulin on Biomimetic Mitochondrial Membranes

April 18, 2017
Author(s)
David Paul Hoogerheide, Sergei Y. Noskov, Daniel Jacobs, Lucie Bergdoll, Vitalii Ivanovich Silin, David L. Worcester, Jeff Abramson, Hirsh Nanda, Tatiana K. Rostovtseva, Sergey M. Bezrukov
Amphitropic proteins, the subfamily of peripheral membrane proteins that interact directly with lipid bilayers, comprises members whose function depends on their localization either in the cytosol or at the cellular membranes. Despite the well-established

Ising-Like Antiferromagnetism on the Octahedral Sublattice of a Cobalt-Containing Garnet and the Potential for Quantum Critically

April 14, 2017
Author(s)
Abbey J. Neer, Joanna Milam-Guerrero, Justin E. So, Brent C. Melot, Kate Ross, Zeric Hulvey, Craig Brown, Alexey A. Sokol, David O. Scanlon
In this letter, we report the observation of quasi-one-dimensional magnetism in the garnet CaY 2Co 2Ge 3O 12. Using low-temperature powder neutron diffraction and symmetry analysis, we identify a magnetic structure consisting of chain-like motifs oriented

Eric V. Bukovsky, Dmitry V. Peryshkov, Hui Wu, Wei Zhou, Wan Si NMN Tang, W. Matthew Jones, Vitalie Stavila, Terrence J. Udovic, Steven H. Strauss
The synthesis of high-purity Na 2B 12F 12 and the crystal structures of Na 2(B 12F 12) (5 K neutron powder diffraction (NPD)), Na 2(H 2O) 4(B 12F 12) (120 K single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD), Na 2(B 12Cl 12) (5 K and 295 K NPD), and Na 2(H 2O) 6(B

Cubic Lead Perovskite PbMoO 3 with Anomalous Metallic Behavior

April 1, 2017
Author(s)
Hiroshi Takatsu, Olivier Hernandez, Wataru Yoshimune, Carmelo Prestipino, Takafumi Yamamoto, Cedric Tassel, Yoji Kobayashi, Dmitry Batuk, Yuki Shibata, Artem M. Abakumov, Craig Brown, Hiroshi Kageyama
A novel Pb-based perovskite PbMoO 3 is obtained by high-pressure and high-temperature synthesis. This material crystallizes in the Pm3m cubic structure at room temperature, making it distinct from typical Pb-based perovskite oxides with a structural

A. Miskowiec, Z. N. Buck, F. Y. Hansen, H. Kaiser, H. Taub, Madhu Sudan Tyagi, S. O. Diallo, Eugene Mamontov, K. W. Herwig
We have used high-resolution quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) to investigate the dynamics of water molecules (time scale of motion 10 u-11-10 -9 s) in proximity to singe-supported bilayers of the zwitterionic lipid DMPC (1,2-dimyristoly-sn-glycero-3
