Introduction to SANS: Small Angle Neutron Scattering at BNC

The Yellow Submarine SANS instrument at BNC uses cold neutrons to study the nanostructure of the materials. Their low energies – or high wavelengths – and their lack of charge allow them to penetrate deeply inside the matter. Neutrons that reach the sample, scatter on the atomic nuclei in the sample. After detecting the scattered neutrons, a longer process of data treatment and analysis follows.
The video showcases the how SANS work, in which research domains it is use, and what samples an be analysed.
