Description

The neutron beam for the NN-bar experiment is produced at the HFR reactor of the ILL Institute in Grenoble. Cold neutrons are transported by means of a slightly bent neutron guide with a 6 x 12 cm2 cross section 60 m long to the experimental area, where they are injected into a divergent guide specially designed in order to reduce the beam divergence. The measurements of the beam intensity and profile are compared to the Monte Carlo calculations. (author)
