WHO NEEDS PULSED NEUTRON SCATTERING?

A series of seven introductory talks by

Colin Windsor, Materials Physics Division, A.E.R.E., Harwell

Mon. 3rd April 1978
What can we get from neutron scattering?
An introduction to neutron scattering avoiding any restriction to thermal neutrons.

Wed. 5th April 1978
How do pulsed sources work?
Special emphasis on the Harwell Linac (1973) and the Rutherford SNS (1982).

Mon. 10th April 1978
Pulsed sources versus reactors?
An analysis of the performance of pulsed sources compared to reactors.

Wed. 12th April 1978
Who needs high Q diffraction?
Elastic spectrometers; liquid and amorphous solids; powders; crystals.

Mon. 17th April 1978
Who needs low Q inelastic scattering?
Inelastic instrumentation; vibrational spectroscopy.

Wed. 19th April 1978
Can we exploit the pulses?
Time dependent studies; phased environments; polarised diffraction; small angle diffraction.

Mon. 24th April 1978
A catalogue of failed experiments - what next?
4He; local mode dispersion; itinerant spin waves; Stoner modes, excitons, semiconductor bands.

The talks will be given at 12 noon in Seminar Room 2
