The structural connectivity of the brain has been addressed by various imaging techniques such as diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWMRI) or specific microscopic approaches based on histological staining or label-free using polarized light (e.g., three-dimensional Polarized Light Imaging (3D-PLI), Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)). These methods are sensitive to different properties of the fiber enwrapping myelin sheaths i.e. [...]

We report a spin-wave study on multiferroic Ba2CoGe2O7 under magnetic fields up to 12 T using low-energyinelastic neutron scattering. In-plane transverse (T1) spin-wave modes are highly dispersive along (h00) andrather flat but strong in intensity along (30l). [...]

Crosslinking of polyethylene oxide (PEO) using a peroxide in the melt is employed to synthesize soft hydrogels with the ability of controlled release of proteins. The viscoelastic properties of the swollen networks confirm the elastic nature of the synthesized material and they are in agreement with swelling characteristics [...]

To study and control the incoherent inelastic background in small-angle neutron scattering, which makes a significant contribution to the detected scattering from hydrocarbon systems, the KWS-2 small-angle neutron scattering diffractometer operated by the Jülich Centre for Neutron Science (JCNS) at Heinz-Maier Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ), Garching, Germany, was equipped with a secondary single-disc chopper that is placed in front of the sample stage. This makes it possible to record in time-of-flight mode the scattered neutrons in the high-Q regime of the instrument (i.e. [...]

The crystal structure of CrAs was investigated using synchrotron X-ray single-crystal diffraction for separate dependences on temperature (30–400 K) and on pressure (0–9.46 GPa). The isosymmetrical magnetostructural phase transition at TN = 267 K can induce a change in the microstructure by twinning due to a crossing of the orthohexagonal setting of the unit-cell parameter ratio c/b.
