  Evaluating the structural integrity of nuclear materials by long duration neutron diffraction
University of Manchester School of Materials
  Research Group: Metallurgy and Corrosion
  Dr K Yan
Application Deadline: 1 March 2019

Type/Funding
  Fully-funded PhD studentship – Magnetic Resonance and Neutron Scattering of Nanolaboratory Materials
University of Southampton Chemistry
  Prof M Levitt, Prof R J Whitby
Applications accepted all year round
It is now possible to imprison single molecules inside closed carbon cages so that they may be studied in near-isolation. These "nanolaboratory" materials are called endofullerenes.

Type/Funding
  Theory and Computation of spin-wave excitations in crystals
Royal Holloway, University of London Department of Physics
  Prof K Refson, Prof T Perring
Applications accepted all year round
A fully-funded three-year joint PhD studentship at Royal Holloway, University of London and the ISIS spallation neutron facility is available starting October 2018, and is open to applicants from the European Economic Area.

Type/Funding
  Graphite and MAX phases: Examination of nuclear materials with two-dimensional nanostructures
University of Bristol Department of Physics
  Dr D Liu
Application Deadline: 28 February 2019
Critical developments in nuclear technology rely on the availability of high-temperature irradiation and mechanical damage-tolerant materials that can be synthesised at low cost, for example, graphite and MAX phases.

Type/Funding
  Carbon nanotubes in the boron neutron capture therapy of cancer
Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Dr G Calabrese
Applications accepted all year round
The early promise of boron neutron capture therapy as a method for the treatment of brain cancer has been mainly inhibited by the inherent toxicity associated with 10B-containing pharmacophores and the need for the ability to cross biological membranes.
Details
Type/Funding
  Radiation Detection Doctoral Network: Investigation of the stability of Silicon Photomultiplier based gamma and neutron detectors
National Physical Laboratory PhD Opportunities
  Mr RB Burguete
Applications accepted all year round
The Radiation Detection Doctoral Network ‘Radnet’ is a new collaborative doctoral training programme carrying out research and training in radiation detection and applications.
