The Very Low Angle Detector (VLAD) bank has been installed on the VESUVIO spectrometer at the ISIS spallation neutron source. The new device allows for high-energy inelastic neutron scattering measurements, at energies above 1 eV, maintaining the wave vector transfer lower than 10 angstrom(-1). This opens a still unexplored region of the kinematical (q,omega) space, enabling new and challenging experimental investigations in condensed matter.

The Very Low Angle Detector for high-energy Inelastic Neutron Scattering on the VESUVIO spectrometer
2008
Abstract
The Very Low Angle Detector (VLAD) bank has been installed on the VESUVIO spectrometer at the ISIS spallation neutron source. The new device allows for high-energy inelastic neutron scattering measurements, at energies above 1 eV, maintaining the wave vector transfer lower than 10 angstrom(-1). This opens a still unexplored region of the kinematical (q,omega) space, enabling new and challenging experimental investigations in condensed matter. This paper describes the main instrumental features of the VLAD device, including instrument design, detector response, and calibration procedure. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V.
