Inelastic Neutron Scattering Measurement of Pozzolan Performance in Portland Cement
Pozzolanic materials such as silica fume or fly ash are added to Portland cement concrete mixes to reduce shrinkage and increase durability. One measure of a pozzolan’s performance is its consumption of calciu...

Orientational Dynamcs in White Phosphorus (P4)
Above To = 196 K, white phosphorus, a solid composed of P4 molecules, exhibits a plastic crystal phase. Below this temperature, the structure is triclinic and orientationally ordered, with six molecules in a unit...
