Researchers have demonstrated the use of a technique known as small angle neutron scattering (SANS) to study the effects of ions moving into nanoscale pores. The study is believed to be the first ...

Proteins do not need to be surrounded by water to carry out their vital biological functions, according to new research. Scientists used a state of the art neutron scattering technique to demonstrate ...

Neutron scattering can be used to study gas-solid interactions and the effect of sorption on a materials’ structural properties. The performance of in-situ neutron scattering studies can be improved ...

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., ...

Neutron detection remains at the forefront of experimental physics and engineering, with technologies continually evolving to address both scientific inquiry and practical safety applications. Recent ...

Organised by SCI's Colloid & Surface Chemistry Group and the RSC's Colloid & Interface Science Group; with support from the RSC/IoP Neutron Scattering Group and the ISIS Pulsed Neutron Source ...

The methods by which neutron diffraction and inelastic scattering may be used to study the structure and dynamics of solutions are reviewed, with particular reference to solutions of amphiphile and ...

On behalf of the IOP/RSC Neutron Scattering Group, the RSC Colloid and Interface Science Group and the SCI Colloid and Surface Chemistry Group, we invite you to participate in a set of two short ...

The Neutron Scattering Society of America, or NSSA, recognized Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Ke An and Ken Herwig as fellows for their outstanding contributions to neutron scattering. The NSSA ...

In the 1940s, researchers discovered that neutrons could serve as tools for measuring nuclear properties and determining the atomic and magnetic structures of materials. The first nuclear reactors, ...
