Quantum state of matter in a gravitational field was first observed with neutrons in 2000 But why neutrons? As gravitation is a very weak force, quantum phenomena can only be observed using very small

Granit - A 2nd-generation gravitational neutron spectrometer The existence of quantum states of matter in the gravitational field has been demonstrated for the very first time at the ILL by a series o

IN22 at work The aim of the experiment presented here was to measure the neutron scattering from liquid indium . This was never measured before since the expected scattering signal is nearly zero for

FIGARO - Fluid Interfaces Grazing Angles ReflectOmeter Figaro is a high flux, flexible resolution, time-of-flight reflectometer with a vertical scattering plane. It is optimized for the study of horiz

A quasi-Laue diffractometer for macromolecular crystallography The quasi-Laue diffractometer LADI-III is used for single crystal neutron diffraction studies at high resolution (1.5 – 2.5 Å) of biologi

Instrument layout Instrument layout The high intensity of UCN/VCN at the experimental site stems from a combination of several design features that result in the strongest flux of UCN/VCN worldwide: A

SANS principle Small Angle Neutron Scattering principles Neutron scattering is the process of collision between neutrons emitted by a source and a target which is the studied sample. When the scatteri

(jpg - 111 Ki) Structure of Ti3SiC2 and time-resolved neutron diffraction patterns recorded on D20Intensity is color-coded, from dark blue for low intensity over green and yellow and finally red and w

Bone strengths Our bones are composed of aggregation of collagen and hydroxyapatite crystals aggregates Ca 10 (PO 4 ) 6 (OH 2 ). They are a living material with some amazing features; if damaged, they

Neutron scattering on undercooled metallic melts This movie was shot on D20 in october 2000. The target of this experiment was diffraction studies of supercooled melts of metals or metal alloys. Here
