Improved neutron mirrors can increase the efficiency of material analysis in neutron sources such as the ESS. The improved mirror has been developed by coating a silicon plate with extremely thin ...

The Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) and Infinite Potential Laboratories (IPL) have reached a historic milestone: producing the highest neutron flux ever generated using a laser.

Mercury target systems are a cornerstone in modern spallation neutron sources, where high-energy proton beams induce spallation reactions in liquid mercury to produce intense neutron fluxes required ...

Quebec researchers recently set a world record by generating the largest neutron flux ever obtained with a laser, a feat that ...

The Spallation Neutron Source at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory set a world record when its linear accelerator reached an operating power of 1.55 megawatts, which improves on ...

The ISIS Neutron and Muon Source has just installed a suite of new instruments at its second target station and is looking to bring in more users from industry Focused on results Four new instruments ...

The Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory — already the world’s most powerful accelerator-based neutron source — will be on a planned hiatus through June 2024 as crews work to ...

Neutron imaging is a non-invasive technique for examining internal structures that is carried out using research reactors or accelerator-based neutron sources. “It is an amazing tool, with endless ...

As Europe’s neutron supply could fall by as much as half within the next couple of decades, newly developed sources could stave off the decline, as Jon Cartwright reports Smaller and better?

Researchers carrying out experiments at the U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Photon Source (APS) and Spallation Neutron Source have shed new light on how magnetic long-range order forms and ...
