The Budapest experience for installation of a liquid hydrogen moderator and guide equipment for neutron scattering research
Description
The 10 MW power Budapest Research Reactor serves various tasks, such as basic and applied research in physics, chemistry, biology, materials science as well as commercial utilization and education. It is open for the international user community. For neutron beam measurements different types of horizontal channels are available: seven thermal and two fast neutron channels; a tangential beam tube serves for the neutron guide system. A liquid hydrogen cold neutron source with cryogenic system of a direct cooling moderator assembly for enhanced performance and improved safety characteristics is under construction. The neutron guide system adjoining to the cold source is designed to be optimized for the specific experiments by providing the proper geometry and supermirror coating of the optical elements. A short description of the neutron guide equipment and examples from the related research activity are given
