KWS-3: Very small angle scattering diffractometer with focusing mirror
KWS-3, which is operated by JCNS, Forschungszentrum Jülich, is a very small angle neutron scattering (VSANS) instrument running on the focussing mirror principle. KWS-3 is designed to bridge the gap between Bonse-Hart and pinhole cameras. Owing to its extended Q range, optimized flux, and good wavelength resolution, KWS-3 has shown good performance and has become scientifically productive to the user community
DNS: Diffuse scattering neutron time-of-flight spectrometer
DNS is a versatile diffuse scattering instrument with polarisation analysis operated by the Jülich Centre for Neutron Science (JCNS), Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, outstation at the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ). Compact design, a large double-focusing PG monochromator and a highly efficient supermirror-based polarizer provide a polarized neutron flux of about 107 n cm-2 s-1. DNS is used for the studies of highly frustrated spin systems, strongly correlated electrons, emergent functional materials and soft condensed matter
PGAA: Prompt gamma and in-beam neutron activation analysis facility
Prompt gamma-ray activation analysis (PGAA) is typically used for the determination of elemental composition and concentration of solid samples (ca. down to ppm range). Liquids and gaseous samples can also be measured. The instrument PGAA is operated by the Institute of Nuclear Physics, University of Cologne and the Technische Universität München
SANS-1: Small angle neutron scattering
The new small angle scattering instrument SANS-1, jointly operated by the Technische Universität München and GEMS, Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht, has completed commissioning and is in regular user service (Gilles et al., 2006). SANS-1 is located at the end of neutron guide NL4a in the Neutron Guide Hall West
PUMA: Thermal three axes spectrometer
Three axes spectrometers allow the direct measurement of the scattering function S(Q, ω) in single crystals at well defined points of the reciprocal lattice vector Q and frequency ω and thus represent the most general instrument type. PUMA, which is jointly operated by the Institute of Physical Chemistry, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen and the Technische Universität München, is characterised by a very high neutron flux as a result of the efficient use of focussing techniques
MEDAPP: Fission neutron beam for science, medicine, and industry
The instrument MEDAPP Medical Applications), operated by the Technische Universität München, and the respective irradiation position are located at the world-wide unique fast neutron beam tube SR10 to which a uranium converter is attached. Thus, the instrument is operated with unmoderated fission neutrons and can be used for a broad variety of applications. For selected tasks, an alternative use with thermal neutrons is possible
NECTAR: Radiography and tomography station using fission neutrons
NECTAR, operated by the Technische Universität München, is a versatile facility for the non-destructive inspection of various objects by means of fission neutron radiography and tomography, respectively
UE112_PGM-1: An open-port low-energy beamline at the BESSY II undulator UE112
The X-ray optical and mechanical designs of a low-energy high-flux VUV- to soft-X-ray beamline for photon energies between 17 and 200 eV (with lower flux up to 690 eV) are presented
