The NIST Cold Neutron Research Facility

The NIST Cold Neutron Research Facility

The Cold Neutron Research Facility (CNRF) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Research Reactor (NBSR) is now coming on line, with the first seven experimental stations operational, and more stations scheduled to be installed during 1992. The present article provides an introduction to the facility, and to other articles in the current issue that give more details on som...

Facilities for Fundamental Neutron Physics Research at the NIST Cold Neutron Research Facility

The features of two fundamental neutron physics research stations at the NIST cold neutron research facility are described in some detail. A list of proposed initial experimental programs for these two stations is also given.

The Double Crystal Analyzer Linkage (DXAL) is one of 20 being installed in the Multi-Axis Crystal Spectrometer (MACS). Visible are two curved panels holding pyrolytic graphite crystals and collimating blades between them. The design features a single mechanical linkage that allows rotation of each crystal panel by 2θ and each blade by θ while maintaining parallel entering and exiting beam paths...
