Abstract
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Raman signal from a hindered hydrogen rotor
in Physical Review B
| Description | The most stable arrangement for atoms in lithium is fcc, not some complicated structure as previously believed. Hydrogen Raman spectra can be characterised by quantum calculations and are not simply due tooscillations. Chain melting in Potassium is a phase transformation to a new state of matter Water can be subducted into the earth in a mineral called brucite Machine learning can be used to make interatomic potentials for systems with multiple phase transformations Dynamic compression of zirconium can form crystal structures which do not exist in static compression. |
| Exploitation Route | Experimental verification of the predictions has been done by collaborators in Utah using synchrotron radiation |
| Sectors | Aerospace, Defence and Marine,Energy,Manufacturing, including Industrial Biotechology |
