In neutron scattering experiments, instruments count the scattered neutrons as a function of wave vector Q, which depends on the scattering angle θ and wavelength λ. For elastic scattering – i.e., ...

The scattered intensity is typically plotted as a function of the scattering vector (q), which is related to the scattering angle and neutron wavelength. The shape of the scattering curve contains ...

A study published in Nature has established a new benchmark in modeling the universe's most extreme events: the collisions of ...

(Courtesy: S Kelley/NIST) The presence of hydrogen in a sample is usually a bad thing in neutron scattering experiments, but now researchers in the US have turned the tables on the lightest element ...

A Duke University-led research team recently had a front-row seat to "glowing orbs" passing through "golden triangles." The ...

The costs of setting up a facility for neutron activation analysis, is relatively low compared with the costs of neutron scattering instruments. Since many of the uses of trace element determination ...

For the first time, a research team has successfully produced one of the most neutron-rich isotopes, hydrogen-6, in an electron scattering experiment. The experiment at the spectrometer facility ...
