Abstract

The Solid State Science Division of the Argonne National Laboratory and the Reactor Group of the National Bureau of Standards are currently planning a low-energy neutron beam Installation for use in the study of thermal neutron Inelastic scattering from solids and liquids. Such a beam can be generated by placing a low-temperature moderator in the proximity of a nuclear reactor core and allowing thermal neutrons to inelastically scatter In the cold moderating medium. The resultant cold neutrons diffuse from the moderator and are used to form the low-energy neutron beam.
