Institut Laue-Langevin, Grenoble, France, October 10-12, 2012
Small Angle Neutron Scattering started at ILL 40 years ago, in 1972, with the commissioning of D11. The method is today well established and became an important standard tool for many different research fields such as soft matter science, biology, solid state physics and materials science. The persistent success, in particular at ILL with the 2 most powerful instruments worldwide, D11 & D22, is illustrated by the continuing high demand for SANS beamtime with a constant overload factor of 3. As a consequence a 3rd SANS instrument, D33, has currently been built and will soon be commissioned.
