title: Effect of teachers unions, 2003-2012, US

description: This paper examines how teachers unions affect teachers’ well-being under various legal institutions. Using a district-teacher matched dataset, this study identifies the union effects by three approaches. First, I contrast teacher outcomes across different state laws towards unions. Second, I compare the union-nonunion differentials within the same legal environment, using multilevel models and propensity score matching. Finally, unexpected legal changes restricting the collective bargaining of teachers in four states form a natural experiment, allowing me to use the difference-in-difference estimation to identify the causal effect of weakening unionism on teacher outcomes. I find that i) many teachers join unions even when bargaining is rarely or never available, and meet-and-confer or union membership rate affects teachers’ lives in the absence of a bargaining contract, ii) how unions influence teacher outcomes vary greatly by different legal environment, iii) the changes in public policy limiting teachers’ bargaining rights significantly decrease teacher compensation.

title: Muon response to changes in the charge distribution of the components of a complex dielectric under applied external electric field

description: We plan to confirm that the change in asymmetry on resonance in the ALC spectra seen in the subject complex dielectric during the previous rapid access proposal (RB1900028) is a result of the change in the hyperfine coupling resulting from the the displacement of electrons under the influence of an externally applied electric field. We also plan to establish if the magnitude of the shift seen in the asymmetry is dependent on the magnitude of the field applied. Additionally we will perform characterization of the constituents at resonance to firstly establish the location of the charges and also to help pinpoint the apparent missing fraction seen in the repolarization curve in the previous proposal. Lastly the response of composite samples will be examined before and after ex - situ ageing to determine the effect of said ageing on the locations and magnitudes of charges within the sample.

title: Muon level-crossing resonances as a probe for studying antiferromagnets at pulsed muon sources

description: We propose a set of measurements using the HiFi spectrometer in which muon level-crossing resonances are used to probe the internal field inside antiferromagnets in which the precession frequency is too large to observe at a pulsed muon source. The idea is based on an old experiment by Kiefl et al. on MnF2. Performing such an experiment at ISIS has the added benefit that information from the time-dependence of the relaxation can be obtained, shedding more light on the transverse couplings that occur at resonance when the principal interactions have been "cancelled out". By performing these experiments on single crystals of fluorides with the rutile structure we have the added benefit that the muon site is well-known through DFT+mu calculations by Moeller et al. The revival of this technique has the potential to become more widely used in the study of magnetic materials with muons.

title: Influence of Alkyl Chain Fluidity on the Membrane Binding Activity of Cationic Surfactants

description: Skin becomes a target of drug delivery because the transdermal routes are non-invasive, can be self-administrated, improves patient compliance and can provide a release for long periods of time. One of the greatest challenges for transdermal delivery is that only a limited number of drugs can penetrate the skin by this route. This proposal will focus on the interaction between the model membrane and surfactants, and try to understand the influence of surfactant fluidity. This work may contribute to the surfactant-based transdermal drug delivery system in the future.

title: The effect of low-level substitutional disorder on Néel-skyrmion systems

description: The polar magnetic semiconductors GaV4S8 and GaV4Se8 have recently attracted attention as one of only two families of bulk materials hosting Néel-type skyrmions: nano-sized topological magnetic vortices that show promise for future data-storage applications. Our previous LF-muSR work on these two materials has helped determine the region of skyrmion stability in the magnetic phase diagram, and show that the Néel skyrmion state leads to an enhanced dynamic response in the muon time-window. Here we propose to extend our understanding of Néel skyrmions by investigating the effect of disorder on the magnetism of GaV4S(8-y)Se(y) under low-level substitutions of S/Se with y = 0.1 and y = 7.9.

title: Hyperfine Interaction Studies in Synthetic Single Stranded DNA Molecule

description: Electron transport plays an important role especially to repair the damaged in DNA. µSR provides a means to microscopically study such phenomena. A systematic study on the electron transport in different forms of DNA is essential to understand the electronic properties of DNA. Later than, we can discuss the effect of damaged in DNA to the mechanism of electron transport. We intend to apply ALC measurements at HiFi on 12mer synthetic single-stranded DNA. We expect to obtain the value of the hyperfine interaction of the muon in each base of DNA. Then we can make a conclusion concerning the electronic conductivity properties of DNA bases.

title: Utilising Quadrupolar Level Crossing Resonance to Gain Important Information of Muon Stopping Sites in TCNQ Charge Transfer Salts

description: There is much debate about muon stopping sites within materials and in many cases knowing where the muon stops is crucial to understanding the physical properties of different samples. Molecular solids present an interesting array of compounds for both chemists and physicists, however there is little understanding as to how the muon behaves in these materials. We seek to use muon-nuclear quadrupolar level crossing resonance (QLCR) to probe this. Within TCNQ charge transfer salts, one observes a full relaxing asymmetry, that is contrary to the behaviour within neutral TCNQ where one sees a significant muonium fraction. Our work so far has shown that within two different TCNQ charge transfer salts, a 1:1 and 1:2 sample, we are able to observe QLCR peaks that match our predictions. Further work is needed to fully understand these states and allow us to understand these molecular systems.

title: To investigate the unusually strong synergetic effect of the mixture of the zwitterionic sulfobetaine and biosustainable MES surfactants

description: Zwitterionic surfactants carry no net charge at the natural pH with no added electrolyte. This lack of overall charge makes their interactions with bio-systems weaker than those of ionic surfactants. The presence of charges within the overall neutral molecule generally makes them interact strongly with ionic surfactants. The MES represents a promising group of anionic surfactants with improved performance and biocompatibility. Recent ST and LS measurements have shown unexpected strong asymmetric synergy between these two components, and this has potentially important implications for a wide range of applications. However neutron techniques are now essential to understanding this potentially important phenomenon in detail and to discern the underlying mechanism. We request beamtime to investigate the interfacial structure to determine the variation surface composition and structure.

title: Models of argument for deliberative Dialogue in Complex Domains: Data Bundle

description: This data bundle contains all the data that were used in Toniolo's PhD Thesis, with title "Models of argument for deliberative Dialogue in Complex Domains". In this research, we defined and empirically evaluated a model of deliberation dialogue based upon argumentation schemes for agents with different objectives to decide what to do in collaboration. The three main folders correspond to the data used for analysis in Chapter 5 (Identifying effective plans through dialogue), Chapter 6a (Strategies driven by plan feasibility) and Chapter 6b (Strategies driven by conflict importance) respectively. Each folder contains files with data resulting from the experiments in csv format, and a file graphAnalysisChX.rtf that contains R scripts for generating the graphs for analysis as presented in the thesis.

title: Frustration-stabilized skyrmions in centrosymmetric compounds

description: Skyrmions are chiral magnetic spin textures that exist in a variety of different magnetic materials. Skyrmions are usually stabilized in noncentrosymmetric chiral materials by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, and we have shown the muSR is a powerful technique to study skyrmions in these systems. Recently, skyrmions have been discovered in the two centrosymmetric compounds Gd3Ru4Al12 and GdPdSi3 where they are thought to be stabilized instead by magnetic frustration. Complex magnetic states that are not yet well understood have also been found in the related compound Tb2PdSi3. We propose to perform muSR measurements of Gd3Ru4Al12 and Tb2PdSi3 to study this novel frustration-stabilized skyrmion state, and the related magnetic states, which will complement our recent ISIS measurements on GdPdSi3. This will help uncover the physics behind this new stabilization mechanism for skyrmions.

title: The Effect of Temperature on the Formation of Surfactant-Metal Ion Multilayers at the Air-Water Interface

description: We have now established that multilayering at the air-water interface is a widespread phenomenon brought about by multivalent ions, whether polyelectrolyte, oligoelectrolyte or multivalent metal ion [1]. Our extensive recent neutron reflection studies on the relatively simpler surfactant-Al3+ ion systems have greatly helped in the understanding of the more complex polymeric systems[2]. In this proposal, we will try to identify whether the multilayered structures of the selected simpler multivalent metal ion-surfactant systems that reach stable and reducible end points, and to prove that they are equilibrium systems or not.

title: NR Investigation of Structural Basis Underlying Synergistic Binding of Lipopeptides and Antibiotics against Bacteria

description: In this part of the proposed work, we wish to explore how antibiotics and antimicrobial peptides interact with model lipid bilayers in the form of a supported lipid bilayer, mimicking key features of outer surfaces of red blood cells and bacteria. From home lab based dynamic light scattering and molecular dynamic simulations, we have found varying interactions associated with charges and hydrophobicity. NR is uniquely powerful at unraveling structural details associated with antibiotic binding to the bilayers. This work aims to investigate what happens when model lipid bilayers are exposed to lipopeptides, antibiotics and a combination of both, to offer structural basis underlying their synergy. This work will form a useful basis for us to compare how antimicrobial peptides and traditional antibiotics interact with representative membrane bilayer models, separately or combined.
