First flux measurement in a SINQ supermirror neutron guide

  • 1. Paul Scherrer Inst. (PSI), Villigen (Switzerland)

Description

On Dec. 3, 1996, the Swiss spallation neutron source SINQ was taken into operation and produced its first neutrons successfully. The neutron spectrum within one of the supermirror guides was estimated by a chopper Time-of-Flight method. The result shows a 30% higher neutron intensity at the flux maximum than expected from previous Monte-Carlo simulations. (author) 1 fig., 4 refs
