Hot rocks: Constraining the thermal conditions of the Mistastin Lake impact melt deposits using zircon grain microstructures

Cyril Cayron

The production of superheated melt during hypervelocity impact events has been proposed to be a common occurrence on terrestrial planetary bodies. Recent direct evidence of superheated impact melt temperatures exceeding > 2370 degrees C from the Kamestasti ...

New methods for structure determination and speciation by NMR crystallography

Martins Balodis

NMR crystallography has been around for half a century, but with the advent of NMR crystal structure determination protocols in the last decade it has shown perspectives that were not seen before. Amalgamation of NMR and crystal structure determination has ...

Evolution of deformation twinning mechanisms in magnesium from low to high strain rates

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Johann Michler, Xavier Maeder, Amit Sharma, Nicolò Maria Della Ventura, Manish Jain

We present a systematic investigation of {10 (1) over bar2} extension twinning mechanism in single crystal magnesium micropillars deformed over seven orders of magnitude of strain rate, from 10(-4) to 500 s(-1), revealing how the accommodation of newly for ...

A fast algorithm to find reduced hyperplane unit cells and solve N-dimensional Bezout's identities

Cyril Cayron

Deformation twinning on a plane is a simple shear that transforms a unit cell attached to the plane into another unit cell equivalent by mirror symmetry or 180 degrees rotation. Thus, crystallographic models of twinning require the determination of the sho ...

Motile dislocations knead odd crystals into whorls

Sofia Magkiriadou, Alexis Poncet

The competition between thermal fluctuations and potential forces governs the stability of matter in equilibrium, in particular the proliferation and annihilation of topological defects. However, driving matter out of equilibrium allows for a new class of ...

Static and dynamic properties of non-collinear quantum antiferromagnets explored by neutron scattering

Luc Testa

This thesis is devoted to the investigation of static and dynamic properties of two different sets of quantum magnets with neutron scattering techniques and the help of linear spin wave theory. Both systems are copper-based with spin-1/2, which makes them ...

Low-energy electron holography imaging of conformational variability of single-antibody molecules from electrospray ion beam deposition

Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Sabine Abb, Sven Alexander Szilagyi, Hannah Julia Ochner

Imaging of proteins at the single-molecule level can reveal conformational variability, which is essential for the understanding of biomolecules. To this end, a biologically relevant state of the sample must be retained during both sample preparation and i ...

Copper-Catalyzed 1,2-Methoxy Methoxycarbonylation of Alkenes with Methyl Formate and Synthetic Studies Towards the Total Synthesis of Koumine, Voacafricine A and Voacafricine B

Balázs Budai

The development of an unusual oxidative alkene difunctionalization using methyl formate and syn-thetic studies towards alkaloid natural products provide the basis of the thesis. The first chapter details the development of a method that forges methoxycarbo ...

Neutron Diffraction and Diffraction Contrast Imaging for Mapping the TRIP Effect under Load Path Change

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Markus Strobl, Efthymios Polatidis

The transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) effect is investigated during a load path change using a cruciform sample. The transformation properties are followed by in-situ neutron diffraction derived from the central area of the cruciform sample. Additio ...
