Materials Science with Neutrons: a Toolkit
- “Neutrons are a powerful tool” say the neutron scientists. However the use of neutrons remains sometimes disconnected from the practical problems of Materials Science, and facilities themselves are seen as ivory towers. In this presentation, I will give an overview of the modalities of access to Large Scale facilities, and show a couple of examples on how neutron scattering data on engineering materials can be used as a tool to understand, and even tailor, materials performance. In order for this to happen, it is clear that neutron data need to be 1. Acquired under the most relevant condition possible 2. Coupled to other experimental techniques 3. Capitalized by means of proper simulations and data analysis Point 1- calls for an intense use and the development of top-notch of in-situ techniques; Point 2- means that the sole use of neutron data will not lead to any solution of a global problem; All points above hint to the fact that access to neutron sources is not routine, and“Neutrons are a powerful tool” say the neutron scientists.
