The aim of this proposed research is to exploit new developments in neutron scattering at eV energies, to investigate the quantum behaviour of protons and other light atoms in a range of systems of fundamental scientific and technological interest. For example; the study of the lithium momentum distribution in materials used in battery technology, the momentum distribution of protons and lithium in lithium-ammonia solutions/metallic solid, measurements on ammonia related compounds which are potential hydrogen storage materials and the determination of the role of oxygen atoms in high Tc superconducting materials.Strong links have been forged with the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, the groups of Car and Parinello and with the groups of Andreani and Colognesi in Italy. Results from this research will be used to further develop and benchmark state of the art calculations, considering the complexity of both measuring and calculating quantum effects in momentum distribution. The project will also further develop an experimental technique in which the UK currently has a world lead. This will be to the benefit of a wide range of scientific disciplines.

这项拟议研究的目的是利用电子伏特能量中子散射的新发展，研究质子和其他轻原子在一系列具有基本科学和技术兴趣的系统中的量子行为。例如：研究电池技术所用材料中锂的动量分布、锂-氨溶液/金属固体中质子和锂的动量分布、测量作为潜在储氢材料的氨相关化合物以及确定氧原子在高温超导材料中的作用。与卢瑟福-阿普尔顿实验室建立了密切联系，Car和Parinello集团以及意大利的Andreani和脑炎集团。考虑到测量和计算动量分布中量子效应的复杂性，这项研究的结果将用于进一步发展和基准最先进的计算。该项目还将进一步开发英国目前处于世界领先地位的实验技术。这将有利于广泛的科学学科。
