Technique: Techniques for structural studies (ND, SANS, TOF-ND, TOF-SANS)

FSANS instrument

The FSANS instrument is a recently built instrument at the Budapest Neutron Centre site, used for non-destructive study of the nano-structural features of various materials, among them archaeological objects. The studied size range is between 10 nm and 500 nm. Because of its technical characteristics, it is complementary to the Yellow Submarine SANS Instrument.

Potential Results

Structural information on 10 to 500 nm scale, indicating the production technique of manuscript, mosaics, sculpture, textile, etc.
