compromised protein diffusion the cell had since long been dead – likely due to the loss of biological activity in key enzymes. “In P. Arcticus, adapted to very cold conditions, cell-death occurs at a temperature ... to date are the bacteria Planococcus halocryophilus, growing at −15° C and remaining metabolically active at −25° C, and ...

operating for several years on a given beam port, instrument or location at the ILL. Such long-term activities are handled through dedicated contracts with the ILL and the partner institutions. Eligible instruments

on a prototype (with seven detection channels). The next step will more than triple the detector’s active surface area, making MARMOT even more efficient. MARMOT is the latest major technical breakthrough

H x □ x , where □ denotes oxygen vacancies) has attracted attention for its remarkable catalytic activity in ammonia synthesis [1,2] . Hydride ions move by hopping into neighbouring oxygen vacancies, that

CO 2 separation from CH 4 exist, from cryogenics to membrane separation. In parallel, there is an active research scene aimed at improving efficiency, selectiveness and cost-effectiveness. Thanks to recent ... steadily approaching practical application. Metal-organic frameworks, or MOFs for short, are another active research field recently brought ...

a ring-shaped molecule (ref 7). MOFs have been, are and will continue to be an important area of activity at ILL - we estimate that several hundred experiments have been performed on MOFs at ILL, leading
