PASTIS2 and CROCODILE: XYZ-wide angle polarisation analysis for thermal neutrons
2017
We present a wide-angle device for inelastic neutron scattering with XYZ-polarisation analysis (PASTIS2). PASTIS2 employs a banana-shaped Si-walled 3He-filter for the polarisation analysis and allows pillar-free neutron scattering for horizontal scattering angles 0-100. The guide field direction at the sample can be chosen vertical or with 45 incremental steps in the horizontal scattering plane. When PASTIS2 is implemented on a polarised neutron beam, the incident neutron spin can be flipped with an easy-to-optimise broad-band adiabatic resonant flipper (CROCODILE) independent of the guide field direction at the sample position. We have tested the performance of this new device on the polarised thermal triple-axis spectrometer IN20 at the Institut Laue-Langevin, equipped with Heusler monochromator and the FlatCone multi-analyser, and discuss its potential for future instruments
