2015
Reports

Abstract

CAMEA is an indirect geometry spectrometer conceived by a Danish (Copenhagen University, Technical University of Denmark) and Swiss (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Paul Scherrer Insitut) Collaboration for the European Spallation Source (ESS), Lund, Sweden. The CAMEA instrument concept has been selected for construction at the ESS, subject to a feasibility study. This document is the final report for the concept phase of the CAMEA instrument project for the European Spallation Source. The material contained within this report represents updated versions of all of the reports submitted for the instrument proposal to the ESS, from which CAMEA was selected for construction.

European Spallation Source

The European Spallation Source ERIC (ESS) is a multi-disciplinary research facility based on the world's most powerful pulsed neutron source. It is currently under construction in Lund, Sweden. The ESS Data Management and Software Centre (DMSC) will be located in Copenhagen, Denmark. The 13 European member countries act as partners in the construction and operation of ESS. ESS will start the scientific user program in 2023, and the construction phase will be complete by 2025.

Neutron diffraction

Neutron diffraction or elastic neutron scattering is the application of neutron scattering to the determination of the atomic and/or magnetic structure of a material. A sample to be examined is placed in a beam of thermal or cold neutrons to obtain a diffraction pattern that provides information of the structure of the material. The technique is similar to X-ray diffraction but due to their different scattering properties, neutrons and X-rays provide complementary information: X-Rays are suited for superficial analysis, strong x-rays from synchrotron radiation are suited for shallow depths or thin specimens, while neutrons having high penetration depth are suited for bulk samples.

Neutron source

A neutron source is any device that emits neutrons, irrespective of the mechanism used to produce the neutrons. Neutron sources are used in physics, engineering, medicine, nuclear weapons, petroleum exploration, biology, chemistry, and nuclear power. Neutron source variables include the energy of the neutrons emitted by the source, the rate of neutrons emitted by the source, the size of the source, the cost of owning and maintaining the source, and government regulations related to the source.
