SCD installed at LANSCE

POSTER

Abstract

Flight path 6 at Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) was equipped with a single crystal diffractometer (SCD). Imported from Argon's recently terminated Intense Pulsed Neutron Source (IPNS), the SCD features two positions-sensitive neutron scintillator area detectors based on the Anger camera design. Each detector has an active area of 15 x 15 cm$^2$ and boasts achieve spatial resolution finer then 2 mm. Some of our initial studies indicate that useful measurements can be preformed on single crystals less then 1 mm$^3$.
