  8. ESS Moderators

  9. ESS Moderators Moderator: slows down fast neutrons – converts them from fast neutrons to slow neutrons Possible VCN converters: liquid hydrogen, solid deuterium, deuterated methane, oxygen clathrates Reflector: reflects slow and intermediate neutrons back into the moderator – maximises escape through the viewed surface Possible VCN reflectors: diamond nanoparticles, intercalated graphite

  10. ESS moderators thermal cold

  11. ESS moderators thermal cold very cold

  12. ESS moderators thermal cold very cold Development needs: VCN moderator materials VCN reflector materials

  13. Diamond nanoparticles as neutron reflectors Cold neutron reflector(E<5·10-3eV) • Small scattering probability • Small scattering angle • Deep penetration • Possible to have an efficient reflectoronly at glancing angle of neutron incidence 1n0 Very cold neutron reflector(E<10-4eV) • Large scattering probability • Large scattering angle • Small penetration • Possible to have an efficient reflector at any incident angle 1n0 1n0 Courtesy E.V.

  22. ESS Moderators

  23. ESS Moderators ?

  24. ESS Moderators • Dedicated moderator for single beamline • Directional • n-nbar • General-purpose moderator available to all • Favour area-integrated brightness • Up to 240 mm viewable height • VCN source • UCN source ?

  25. Long-term interest for ESS Part of upgrade plan • Upgrade plan for ESS • More instruments on the main target station (rather than new target station) • When we have reached nominal performance (22 instruments and 5 MW): >2030 • Moderator-Reflector plug will anyway need replacement every ~2 years @5MW • An optimised VCN source in the lower moderator position? • Intensity gains of factor ~10 for neutrons around 10 Å or more • Small-angle neutron scattering (better versions of LOKI and SKADI) • Neutron spin-echo: huge increases in energy resolution • Particle physics: neutron lifetime, neutron EDM, dark matter, …
