Abstract:Use of small-angle and ultra-small angle scattering instruments in a tandem provides a unique opportunity of exploring sample structure on the length scales between Angstroms and microns in a single experiment. This chapter considers major types and components of small-angle neutron and x-ray scattering instruments. Constant flux instrumentation is discussed based on the General Purpose SANS diffractometer (HFIR, ORNL) and the double-crystal USANS instrument (NCNR, NIST). Operational principles and major compo… Show more
