The Los Alamos Neutron Scattering Center

The Los Alamos Neutron Scattering Center (LANSCE) is a new high intensity pulsed spallation neutron source for research in the structure and dynamics of condensed matter. With first operation in 1985, LANSCE is expected to produce the world's highest peak thermal flux of 1.7 × 10 16 n⧸cm 2 · s...

Zusammenfassung:	The Los Alamos Neutron Scattering Center (LANSCE) is a new high intensity pulsed spallation neutron source for research in the structure and dynamics of condensed matter. With first operation in 1985, LANSCE is expected to produce the world's highest peak thermal flux of 1.7 × 10 16 n⧸cm 2 · s by 1987. A description of the LANSCE facility and source characteristics is presented. Some experimental highlights of research at the low intensity (peak thermal flux of 6 × 10 13 n⧸cm 2 · s) WNR predecessor to LANSCE are described which illustrate the scientific potential and instrumentation of LANSCE. Future plans for the LANSCE facility and research program are discussed.
