A Neutron Microscope Using a Nested Wolter-I Condenser and a Bank of Diffractive-Refractive Achromatic Objectives
Henning Friis Poulsen, Cæcilie Andersen, Nolan Ravinet +10
We propose a nested Wolter-I mirror design for a neutron condenser, which is based on established X-ray telescope technology. We demonstrate through simulations that it can increas…
Accelerated ray-tracing simulations using McXtrace
Steffen Sloth, Peter Kjær Willendrup, Hans Henrik Brandenborg Sørensen +2
McXtrace is an established Monte Carlo based ray-tracing tool to simulate synchrotron beamlines and X-ray laboratory instruments. This work explains and demonstrates the new capabi…
HighNESS Conceptual Design Report: Volume I
V. Santoro, O. Abou El Kheir, D. Acharya +87
The European Spallation Source, currently under construction in Lund, Sweden, is a multidisciplinary international laboratory. Once completed to full specifications, it will operat…
Polychromatic neutron phase contrast imaging of weakly absorbing samples enabled by phase retrieval
Maja Østergaard, Estrid Buhl Naver, Anders Kaestner +8
We demonstrate the use of a phase retrieval technique for propagation-based phase contrast neutron imaging with a polychromatic beam. This enables imaging samples with low absorpti…
Development of a High Intensity Neutron Source at the European Spallation Source: The HighNESS project
V. Santoro, K. H. Andersen, M. Bernasconi +36
The European Spallation Source (ESS), presently under construction in Lund, Sweden, is a multidisciplinary international laboratory that will operate the world's most powerful puls…
McStas (i): Introduction, use, and basic principles for ray-tracing simulations
P. K. Willendrup, K. Lefmann
We present an overview of, and an introduction to, the general-purpose neutron simulation package McStas. We present the basic principles behind Monte Carlo ray-tracing simulations…
McStas (ii): An overview of components, their use, and advice for user contributions
P. K. Willendrup, K. Lefmann
An key element of the success of McStas is the component layer where users and developers alike are contributing to the description of new physical models and features. In McStas,…
Simulation Tools for Detector and Instrument Design
Kalliopi Kanaki, Thomas Kittelmann, Xiao Xiao Cai +4
The high performance requirements at the European Spallation Source have been driving the technological advances on the neutron detector front. Now more than ever is it important t…
Time-of-Flight Three Dimensional Neutron Diffraction in Transmission Mode for Mapping Crystal Grain Structures
Alberto Cereser, Markus Strobl, Stephen Hall +17
The physical properties of polycrystalline materials depend on their microstructure, which is the nano-to-centimeter-scale arrangement of phases and defects in their interior. Such…
Monte Carlo Particle Lists: MCPL
Thomas Kittelmann, Esben Klinkby, Erik B Knudsen +3
A binary format with lists of particle state information, for interchanging particles between various Monte Carlo simulation applications, is presented. Portable C code for file ma…
