"The Spallation Neutron Source: A Powerful Tool for Materials Research"Thom Mason , Director, Spallation Neutron Source - Oak Ridge National Laboratory [Host: Seunghun Lee]
ABSTRACT:
The wavelengths and energies of thermal and cold neutrons are ideally
matched to the length and energy scales in the materials that underpin
technologies of the present and future: ranging from semiconductors to
magnetic devices, composites to biomaterials and polymers. The
Spallation Neutron Source will use an accelerator to produce the most
intense beams of neutrons in the world when it is complete in 2006. The
project is being built by a collaboration of six U.S. Department of
Energy laboratories. It will serve a diverse community of users drawn
from academia, industry, and government labs with interests in condensed
matter physics, chemistry, engineering materials, biology, and beyond.
