Crystallization of magnetic skyrmions in MnSi investigated by neutron spin echo spectroscopy

The dynamics in polyethyleneoxide–alkali iodide complexes investigated by neutron spin-echo spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulations

We determined the self part of the intermediate scattering function in liquid polyethyleneoxide ~PEO! and PEO–alkali iodide complexes by means of neutron spin-echo spectroscopy and molecular dynamics ~MD! computer simulations. We present the first accurate quantitative results on the segmental dynamics in the time range up to 1 ns and the wave-vector range from a few nm to approximately 20 nm. ...

Solvent effects on AOT reverse micelles in liquid and compressed alkanes investigated by neutron spin-echo spectroscopy.

Neutron Spin-Echo (NSE) spectroscopy has been employed to study the interfacial properties of reverse micelles formed with the common surfactant sodium bis-2-ethylhexyl-sulfosuccinate (AOT) in liquid alkane solvents and compressed propane. NSE spectroscopy provides a means to measure small energy transfers for incident neutrons that correspond to thermal fluctuations on the nanosecond time scal...

Crystallization of Amorphous Germanium Investigated by X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy

Momentum-resolved electron-phonon interaction in lead determined by neutron resonance spin-echo spectroscopy.

Neutron resonance spin-echo spectroscopy was used to monitor the temperature evolution of the linewidths of transverse acoustic phonons in lead across the superconducting transition temperature over an extended range of the Brillouin zone. For phonons with energies below the superconducting energy gap, a linewidth reduction of maximum amplitude was observed below . The electron-phonon contribut...

Coupled protein domain motion in Taq polymerase revealed by neutron spin-echo spectroscopy.

Long-range conformational changes in proteins are ubiquitous in biology for the transmission and amplification of signals; such conformational changes can be triggered by small-amplitude, nanosecond protein domain motion. Understanding how conformational changes are initiated requires the characterization of protein domain motion on these timescales and on length scales comparable to protein di...
