Characterization of the neutron imaging parameters on INES
The aim of the proposal is the quantitative determination of the geometrical parameters and count rate parameters of an imaging device on INES. The measurements will provide the... -
Characterization of the anisotropy of the micro-structural properties of work...
Time of flight neutron diffraction (ToF-ND) is a powerful technique for the characterization of the micro-structural properties of the phases present in the sample. The Rietveld... -
Characterization of a relative residual strain map of an Indian sword by neutron
Historical metallurgy is one of the most interesting topics of archaeometry but, in order to achieve a good level of characterization of the artefacts studied by traditional... -
Investigation of the phases and chemical composition of early Roman Victoriat...
The proposal involves the non-invasive measurement of ancient Roman coins by ToF diffraction techniques. A well selected series of Victoriati are to be measured in order to... -
Compositional and microstructural analysis of iron meteorites through time of...
Iron meteorites consist overwhelmingly of nickel-iron alloys. The metal taken from these meteorites is known as meteoric iron and was one of the earliest sources of usable iron... -
A neutron diffraction study of Li2xMn1-xPS3 films
In this experiment we propose to perform neutron diffraction measurements on lithium intercalation compounds,Li2xMn1-xPS3,at room temperature,40ºC,75 ºC,150ºC and under vacuum... -
Identification of the microstructural characteristics of Damascus steel in 4 ...
From 2009 we have measured at ISIS selected samples of Indian blades from Hyderabad and other private collections in order to determine their phase distribution by neutron... -
Quantitative determination of the phase distribution of an iron tool from a B...
We propose to measure a fragment of a tool, coming from a Bronze Age burial ground of southern Tuscany, which seems to be forged of iron but does not fit with the attributed age. -
Determination of the self absorption of gamma emission induced by nuclear res...
We intend to perform some measurements with three NRCA gamma detectors in different geometric configurations in the INES block house in order to get information about the... -
Non destructive characterization of Nummi issued during Vth cenrury.
These measurements are aimed to identify the metallurgical and chemical characteristics of some bronze coins, called ¿nummi¿, strucked under Roman Empire, V century A.D..The... -
Compositional analysis and working technique determination of Japanese artwor...
The Japanese section of the Stibbert Museum, in Firenze, is one of the most important in the world, excluding Japan for obvious reasons. Here many different artifacts are... -
Neutron diffraction characterization of Japanese steel swords fragments
Studying the sword forging techniques, and its evolution with time, is one of the most interesting topics in the analysis of the Japanese blade forging methodology. In that... -
A wide-range energy and wave-vector transfer instrument for pulsed sources
Neutron scattering is a powerful technique to reveal structure and dynamics in condensed matter, espacially in hydrogen containing materials. For these systems, the experimental... -
Test of an array of new thermal and resonance neutron detectors
The R&D activity on neutron detectors is strategic and instrumental for the development of reliable application of the neutron techniques. We propose to use two equal... -
Characterization of texture of bronze standards through Bragg edge diffractio...
The Bragg edge transmission technique (BET) is a diffraction method exploiting the edges appearing in the transmitted neutron spectra crossing polycrystalline materials and is...
