Author(s)
John Jurns, Philipp Arnold, Jeremy Cook, Osman Celikten
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) houses an aging reactor that serves more than 40 % of all cold neutron research needs in the U.S. First critical in 1967, the National Bureau of Standards Reactor

Progress Towards Operation of a Deuterium Cold Neutron Source at the NCNR

June 1, 2020
Author(s)
John M Jurns, Michael Middleton, Robert E. Williams
The NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) operates a 20 MW research reactor that produces neutrons for a suite of 30 neutron scattering instruments. 70% of these instruments use cold neutrons (E 2), which is in turn cooled by a recently commissioned 7 kW
