Abstract

Neutron source at RutherfordBeams of neutrons are playing an increasingly important role in the investigation of the structure of matter but, in the constant search for new and better experimental facilities, the limitations of fission reactors as neu tron sources are becoming more and more evident.Scientists are likely to turn to accelerator based systems for improved neutron sources and proton synchrotrons could soon be in use as the 'next generation' of neutron sources.Low energy neutron beams are widely used by physicists, chemists, materials scientists, biologists, etc., to investigate the structure and properties of a wide range of materials including alloys, defect solids, liquid crystals, ferroelectrics, amorphous polymers, organic molecules and membranes and macromolecules such as proteins and viruses.As is the case with high energy physics, few Universities have their own experimental facilities for neutron beam research.
