Figure 1
Diagram of a typical SANS experiment geometry at a continuous source, and angle/axis coordinates used by GRIP. An incident collimated and monochromated neutron beam comes from the left with wavevector k0. The sample is indicated by a gray hexagonal prism with local sample coordinates , , in red. The sense of rotation of the goniometer angles GRIP_dom, GRIP_san and GRIP_phi is indicated about the axes shown as dashed lines. Outgoing scattered neutrons at wavevector kf impinge upon a detector a distance d (several metres, not to scale) away. The laboratory coordinate system , , is indicated on the detector, along with the Bragg angle 2θ and the azimuthal angle ψ. |
