environment. The examples of science in these pages give a flavour of what can be done with neutrons, Many other examples can be found in our recent press releases , or in the many brochures available ... Neutrons are unique as probes into matter; they can reveal what other techniques cannot see. They therefore provide a powerful tool for ...

the structure of solids at the atomic or molecular level. Owing to their unique properties, neutrons can play a crucial role in this, by resolving, for example, the arrangements of magnetic moments in complex ... materials, and magnetic films. In the field of organic chemistry, isotopic substitution techniques can be exploited to elucidate the ...

y neutral, neutrons can travel deep into materials and are non-destructive. One of their most important advantages is that they interact quite strongly with hydrogen nuclei, so can pick out all the hydrogen ... delivery and action - Environment Neutron beams are particularly suitable for biological research. They can be generated with energies and ...

the neutron can probe the magnetic properties of materials at the atomic level and even down to the nuclear level: it acts as a tiny compass exploring the inner structure of matter. It can detect and ... Superconductors - Quantum systems – Molecular magnets – Multi ferroics – Novel electronics Magnets can be found everywhere in everyday life, from ...
