Quasielastic Neutron Scattering Study on Thermal Gelation in Aqueous Solution of Agarose [PDF]
Gels, 2023 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

Dynamical Behavior of Disordered Regions in Disease-Related Proteins Revealed by Quasielastic Neutron Scattering [PDF]
Medicina, 2022 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,

Dynamical Behavior of Human α-Synuclein Studied by Quasielastic Neutron Scattering. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 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 ...

Determining the relaxation time from a temperature-dependent scan of the neutron spin-echo signal amplitude [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 Temperature-dependent scans of the neutron scattering intensity are commonly employed in high energy-resolution quasielastic measurements. Besides serving as a useful diagnostic tool for identifying the temperature range that could give rise to a ...

Revisiting the modeling of quasielastic neutron scattering from bulk water [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 Quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) from bulk-water at 300 K, measured on the IRIS backscattering neutron spectrometer (ISIS, UK), is interpreted using the jump diffusion model (JDM), a “minimalistic” multi-timescale relaxation model (MRM) and ...
