Neutron Scattering: Theory, Instrumentation, and Simulation Kim Lefmann Department of Materials Research Risø National Laboratory Technical University of Denmark August 25, 2007 2 Foreword and acknowledgements These notes are written as lecture notes for a University course in Neutron Scattering, University of Copenhagen, autumn 2007. In contrast to most text- books on this topic, these notes cover both theoretical and experimental aspects. Further, the notes contain material on ray-tracing simulations of neutron instru- ments. The theoretical part of these notes are largely inspired by the classical text- books by Marshall and Lovesey[1], and Squires[2], but the material has been simplified to make it appropriate for beginners in this field and re-organised in (for me) a more streamlined way. Further, this text contains more recent topics like small-angle scattering and simulations. It is intented to make the notation consistent with Squires[2], since this is used as a second sourcebook for the course. One major difference, though, is the use of q in stead of κ for the scattering vector, in order to make the notation compatible also for SANS. I am strongly indepted to K.N. Clausen for introducing me to the secrets of neutron scattering and for support far beyond the duties and timespan of a Ph.D. supervisor. Without him this work would have been utterly impossible. A wholehearted thank goes to R. McGreevy for providing me the “five rea- sons” for neutron scattering. R. McGreevy also led the EU project SCANS, which inspired and funded parts of the work related to computer simulations. He is also leading the EU NMI3 and ISIS-TS2 projects, presently supporting the simulation work
