    Functional materials for the green shift

    In the fourth episode, Shibl Gill talks about key functional materials for the green shift, such as metal organic frameworks, battery materials and hydrogen storage materials with four scientist based at the University of Stavanger. Associate professors Olena Zavorotynska, Sachin Chavan and Jelena Popovic-Neuber as well as Postdoc Sofia Bercha answer questions such as: What is a functional material? how do you design it? how do you know what it can do?  what is the long-term strategy in materials science to tackle one of the biggest modern issues, the climate crisis. This podcast has been funded by the Research Council of Norway in the frame of the project no. 324863.

    A Day in the life of a neutron scientist

    In the heart of the bustling scientific hub at the ISIS Neutron and Muon source in Oxfordshire at the Rutherford Appleton research lab in the UK. Shibl talks to Dr. Kirill Nemkovskiy, Dr. Jacob Wilkins, Dr. Gøran Nielsen and Dr. David Voneshen, instrument and computational scientists about neutron instrumentation and developments in the field. He also speaks with a student, Polly Mitchell, interning at the lab about her motivations and experiences. They talk about their motivation to do science and how do they found out what they like to do the most.

    The future of neutron research is in Scandinavia

    The third episode was recorded at the European Conference for Neutron Scattering (2023) at Garching, Germany. Shibl was joined by Joanna Lewis, the science outreach coordinator from the European Spallation source (ESS) and Dr. Rasmus Toft-Peterson, affiliated with the Danish Technical University and working on the BIFROST instrument under development at the ESS. They talk about the status of the construction of the biggest neutron source in Europe, how can we free neutrons and what can we do with them.

    Is materials simulation key to the green shift?

    In the first episode, Shibl Gill discusses computationalmethods for materials sciences with Dr. Espen Sagvolden and Dr. Edoardo Fertitta from SINTEF in Oslo. Finding out how close are we from simulating all materials properties using quantum mechanics and what is the capacity of current simulation methods to propose new materials that can help us make the green shift.
