Today, physicists can describe our world with ever increasing precision: The Standard Model of particle physics successfully describes all observation concerning three out of four fundamental interact

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

Simulated experiment (TAS geometry) Here D10 is set in the 3-axis geometry (TAS geometry) for an inelastic scattering experiment. The polychromatic beam from the thermal neutron guide H24 arrives on t

Simulated single crystal diffraction experiment Here D10 is set for a single crystal diffraction experiment in the 4-circle geometry. The polychromatic beam from the thermal neutron guide H24 arrives

The trick of the advanced dilution cryostat of D10 A neutron radiograph film recorded at the ILL in 2005 on NEUTROGRAPH shows the progressive dilution of helium-3 into helium-4 inside a capillary whic

(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

Why can’t alkaline batteries be recharged? D1B is a high intensity powder diffractometer with an 80° PSD (position sensitive detector). One of its major use is for kinetic and real time experiments li

Texture of subduction rocks The history of strain and stresses in the Earth’s crust are stored, memorised in rocks. Reading it through neutron texture analysis can tell us much about geological mechan

Pierre Convert at work on the microstrip detector of D20 Position-sensitive multidetector Assembly of the microstrip gas-chamber position sensitive detector (2000). The advantages of this technology a

Simulated experiment A typical neutron powder diffraction experiment with D2B: The polychromatic beam from the thermal beam H11 is collimated and is diffracted by the Ge monochromator at a large take-
