Contributed Oral

Neutron scattering has proven to be one of the most powerful methods for the investigation of structure and dynamics of condensed matter on atomic length and time scales. Neutron techniques have a broad range of applications in physics, chemistry, magnetism and superconductivity, material sciences, cultural heritage, biology, soft matter, health, and environmental and climate science. A...

54. The University of Birmingham’s High-Flux Accelerator-Driven Neutron Facility (HF-ADNeF)

Ben Phoenix (University of Birmingham)

25/02/2025, 10:20

Invited Talk (Category for invited speakers only)

Birmingham’s high flux neutron facility utilises a high power electrostatic accelerator to provide currents of over 30 mA, at 2.6 MeV, onto a rotating lithium target. This gives neutron yields of >3x10¹³ neutrons/sec via the 7Li(p,n)7Be reaction. This intense and versatile source enables a wide range of research activities including materials damage, medical physics and...
