Neutron polarization analysis is a key technique in the technique of neutron scattering. JCNS develops and refines methods for generating high degrees of 3He polarization.
Detectors form a key component for the instruments in neutron scattering. JCNS commissions and maintains the detectors used by JCNS in the main neutron facilities worldwide in order to ensure a high standard and reproducibility of the measurements. At the same time new concepts for neutron detection are developed.
JCNS develops and maintains dedicated data-analysis software for neutron scattering and coordinates the standardization of data formats. We support scientists in all questions related to data analysis.
JCNS develops and applies methods of simulation for neutron scattering instrumentation.
JCNS is engaged in the design of novel high brilliance neutron sources.
