The use of IN13 backscattering spectrometer at ILL is getting larger and larger, in particular in the biological community. Indeed, it explores a time-space window of a few angstroms for times up to 100 ps, which is well adapted to the motions in biological samples. On the other hand, its major drawback is a quite low neutron flux on the sample, implying long acquisition times which impose limits on experimental data obtainable and important sample mass.

Abstract

The use of IN13 backscattering spectrometer at ILL is getting larger and larger, in particular in the biological community. Indeed, it explores a time-space window of a few angstroms for times up to 100 ps, which is well adapted to the motions in biological samples. On the other hand, its major drawback is a quite low neutron flux on the sample, implying long acquisition times which impose limits on experimental data obtainable and important sample mass. A major upgrade of the instrument is now processing, aiming to higher neutron flux and improvement of instrument versatility, thus making of IN13 a very competitive instrument.
