Dynamical Behavior of Disordered Regions in Disease-Related Proteins Revealed by Quasielastic Neutron Scattering [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and proteins containing intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are known to be involved in various human diseases. Since the IDPs/IDRs are fluctuating between many structural substrates,

Quasielastic Neutron Scattering Study on Thermal Gelation in Aqueous Solution of Agarose [PDF]
The dynamics of water and agarose molecules in an agarose aqueous solution has been studied by means of quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS). The dynamic structure factor S (Q,E) of the agarose aqueous solution was fitted well to the sum of the Lorentz

Identifying the Spin-Incoherent Contribution to Quasielastic Neutron Scattering with a Cold Triple-Axis Spectrometer [PDF]
Polarisation analysis for neutron scattering experiments is a powerful tool suitable for a wide variety of studies, including soft-matter samples which have no bulk magnetic behaviour and/or a significant hydrogen content.

Dynamics of water within Cu-loaded zeolites: A quasielastic neutron scattering study
Quasielastic Neutron Scattering (QENS) was employed in order to probe the dynamics of water confined within copper-loaded MOR, MFI and CHA zeolite frameworks in the temperature range 100–300 K.

Study of the water dynamics near hydrophilic, nanostructured CuO surfaces by quasielastic and inelastic neutron scattering [PDF]
We have used quasielastic and inelastic neutron scattering to investigate the structure, dynamics, and phase transitions of water interacting with superhydrophilic CuO surfaces that not only possess a strong affinity for water but also a “grass-like ...

Effect of Halide Variations on Cation Dynamics in MAPbX<sub>3</sub> (X = Cl, Br, and I). [PDF]
This study uncovers the pivotal role of halide composition in dictating MA cation dynamics in MAPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, and I). MAPbCl3 exhibits the earliest and broadest onset of threefold MA rotation with the lowest activation energy, driven by pronounced octahedral distortions and reduced steric hindrance from the smaller Cl⁻ ion.

Comparison of time-of-flight and MIEZE neutron spectroscopy of H<sub>2</sub>O. [PDF]
We report a comparison of modulation of intensity with zero effort (MIEZE), a neutron spin–echo technique, and neutron time‐of‐flight spectroscopy, a conventional neutron scattering method. The basis of this comparison is provided by measurements performed on pure water under the same measurement conditions.We report a comparison of modulation of ...

Dynamical Behavior of Human α-Synuclein Studied by Quasielastic Neutron Scattering. [PDF]
α-synuclein (αSyn) is a protein consisting of 140 amino acid residues and is abundant in the presynaptic nerve terminals in the brain. Although its precise function is unknown, the filamentous aggregates (amyloid fibrils) of αSyn have been shown to be ...
