| neutron | <physics> An elementary atomic particle that has no charge and a mass that is approximately the same as that of a proton. Neutrons are found in allatoms except the lightest isotopes of hydrogen. (09 Jan 1998) |
| neutron activation analysis | Activation analysis in which the specimen is bombarded with neutrons. Identification is made by measuring the resulting radioisotopes. (12 Dec 1998) |

| neutron radiation | An emission of neutrons from the nucleus of an atom by decay or fission. (05 Mar 2000) |
| integrated neutron flux | <radiobiology> Sum (integral) of the neutron flux (neutrons per unit time per unit area, see flux) over all time, total number of neutrons which passed through a unit area. Important figure-of-merit in testing effects of neutron radiation on materials, and in assessing how long such materials can survive exposure to neutron sources (such as fission reactor cores and D-T fusion plasmas). (09 Oct 1997) |
| thermal neutron | <radiobiology> A neutron in thermal equilibrium with its surrounding environment. Thermal neutrons are those that have been slowed down by a moderator to speeds characteristic of the local temperature. Compare: fast neutron. (09 Oct 1997) |
| fast neutron | <physics> Neutron with energy greater than roughly 100,000 electron volts (100 keV). Distinguished from slow or thermal neutrons. (09 Oct 1997) |
| grating, diffraction | <microscopy> A series of narrow, close, equally spaced, diffracting slits or grooves capable of dispersing light into its spectrum. Diffraction gratings and their replicas are also used as standards in micrometry, especially in electron microscopy. (05 Aug 1998) |
| Convergent Beam Electron Diffraction | <microscopy> An electron probe is tightly focused on a transmission electron microscopy specimen and the resulting pattern of diffracted electrons is observed. The patterns contains information on the crystal symmetry and atomic and electronic structure of the sample. Regions as small as 0.2 nm may be examined. Acronym: CBED (05 Aug 1998) |
| X-ray diffraction | <investigation> Basis of powerful technique for determining the three dimensional structure of molecules, including complex biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids, that form crystals or regular fibres. Low angle X-ray diffraction is also used to investigate higher levels of ordered structure, as found in muscle fibres. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Selected Area Electron Diffraction | <technique> In this diffraction mode an aperture is used to define the area from which a diffraction pattern is to be recorded from a thin sample. This aperture is typically located in an image plane below the sample. Selected Area Electron Diffraction patterns are simple spot patterns and are of use in phase determination (lattice spacing measurement) and defect analysis (sample orientation). Acronym: SAED (05 Aug 1998) |
| diffraction | When a wave train passes an obstacle secondary waves are set up that interfere with the primary wave and give rise to bands of constructive and destructive interference. Around a point source of light, in consequence, is a series of concentric light and dark bands (coloured bands with white light), a diffraction pattern. (18 Nov 1997) |
| diffraction grating | <microscopy> An artificially produced periodic array of scattering centres capable of producing a pattern of diffracted energy, such as accurately ruled lines on a plane surface. (05 Aug 1998) |
| interference diffraction patterns | The patterns arising from the recombination of beams of light or other waves after they have been split and one set of rays have undergone a phase retardation relative to the other. Such patterns formed by simple objects give information on the correctness of the focus and the presence or absence of optical defects. (18 Nov 1997) |
