Simulating Neutron Diffraction from Deformed Mosaic Crystals in McStas

Quantum Beam Science
Monochromator and analyzer systems that rely on bent single crystals are in use throughout the neutron scattering community. An adequate component for the simulation of such crystals was missing in the widely used neutron simulation software package ...

A CF3I-based SDD Prototype for Spin-independent Dark Matter Searches

, 2008
The application of Superheated Droplet Detectors (SDDs) to dark matter searches has so far been confined to the light nuclei refrigerants C2ClF5 and C4F10 (SIMPLE and PICASSO, respectively), with a principle sensitivity to spin-dependent interactions ...

Boosting the Photoluminescence of Au@Cu12 Nanoclusters via Strategic Fluorine‐Atom Ligand‐Shell Engineering

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
The photophysical performance of gold‐doped copper‐rich nanoclusters can be tuned by surface functionalization. Subtle ligand modification enhances intermolecular interactions, thereby reducing nonradiative decay and markedly improving photoluminescence. Comparative photographs and quantum yield values (Φ = 55% vs.

A Personal Perspective on Metalloprotein Structure and the Future of Macromolecular X‐Ray Crystallography

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
While X‐ray crystallography has been the primary method for determining the structures of metalloproteins, cryoEM has taken over this role, illustrated by [4Fe4S]‐cluster containing proteins deposited in the Protein Data Bank. What will be the role for X‐ray crystallography as cryoEM and machine learning methods dominate the initial structural analysis?

Neutron Scattering Instrumentation at Compact Neutron Sources

, 2017
There is currently a strong interest in Compact Accelerator-based Neutron Source (CANS) as a possible new type of source for neutron scattering experiments. A workshop around the "Neutron scattering instrumentation around CANS" was organized in July 2017 between several European institutes.
