D7 scattering facility

The D7 scattering facility is a research setup at a neutron source designed to study how neutrons bounce off materials. By directing a beam of neutrons at a sample, scientists can analyze the angles and intensities of scattered neutrons to understand the sample’s internal structure at a microscopic level. This technique helps researchers investigate materials like polymers, biological molecules, and magnetic substances, providing insights into their composition, arrangement, and properties, which can be valuable for developing new materials and understanding complex systems.
