The latest instrument specifications of the J-PARC MLF BL02 spectrometer are introduced, and the future of scientific research expected from the use of polarized neutrons will be summarized from the viewpoint of the instrument scientist in charge of the spectrometer.
Neutron polarization analysis provides profound additions of knowledge to the field of soft condensed matter research. The ability to separate the coherent and incoherent scattering contributions gives information on spatial correlations and collective motion, and information from single particles, respectively.
In this study, we focus on upgrading the SPHERES (SPectrometer for High Energy...
Polarised neutrons have long been used to study magnetic structures and dynamics in nano- to meso-scales [1]. In soft matter studies, polarisation analysis has recently been shown to be an important method to determine coherent and single-particle motions in QENS in the intermedia length scale where diffusion occurs [2,3]. Owing to the persistent push to advance the technology, polarised...
MDANSE (Molecular Dynamics Analysis of Neutron Scattering Experiments) [1,2,3] is an open-source software project developed to allow users to generate simulated neutron scattering observables from MD trajectories relevant to inelastic and quasi-elastic neutron scattering experiments. The MDANSE project began in 2015, supported by the SINE2020 program, and was initially developed by software...
