QENS BAG at ISIS Neutron and Muon Source webinar

We are pleased to announce a call for Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering (QENS) BAG at ISIS. The webinar with Dr. Ian Silverwood, UKRI STFC ISIS Neu​tron and Muon Source, will provide information on the benefits, process and how to apply for the BAG.
QENS at ISIS essentially measures the motions of hydrogen on the angstrom length-scale and the fs to ps time-scale. It can be used to measure the diffusion rate and geometry of mobile sorbents, and to probe the dynamics of soft matter. It is the best method to measure diffusion on the local scale without interference from inter-crystalline voids. Measurement is greatly complemented by MD simulations, as neutron ‘observables’ are simply generated from the calculated MD trajectories.
We are keen to encourage users with no experience of QENS and will provide support throughout the process. QENS is a powerful tool in catalysis research, although currently underused.
