Description

The Advanced Neutron Source (ANS) is a new user experimental facility for neutron research planned at Oak Ridge. The centerpiece of the facility will be a steady-state source of neutrons from a reactor of unprecedented flux. In addition, extensive and comprehensive equipment and facilities for neutron research will be included. The scientific fields to be served include neutron scattering with cold, thermal, and hot neutrons (the most important scientific justification for the project); engineering materials irradiation; isotope production (including transuranium isotopes); materials analysis; and nuclear science.
