ASG (Advanced Small Angle Neutron Scattering)

ASG, or Advanced Small Angle Neutron Scattering, is a technique used to study the microscopic structure of materials. It involves directing neutrons—tiny neutral particles—at a sample and measuring how they scatter at small angles. This scattering pattern reveals information about structures ranging from nanometers to micrometers, such as the arrangement of polymers, proteins, or porous materials. ASG enables scientists to understand material composition, shape, and density variations without destroying the sample, aiding research in fields like materials science, biology, and nanotechnology.
