First Demonstration of Novel Method for Inelastic Neutron Scattering Measurement Utilizing Multiple Incident Energies

We succeeded in experimentally demonstrating that a series of two-dimensional maps of a dynamical structure factor in momentum-energy space with multiple incident energies can be simultaneously obtained by one measurement. This method reduces the dead time of time-of-flight Measurement, and thus, it markedly increases the measurement efficiency. Our achievement realized using the Fermi chopper spectrometer 4SEASONS in J-PARC is expected to open up new possibilities of inelastic neutron scattering measurements.
