Resolution-intensity optimisation on quasielastic neutron scattering spectrometers
In quasieleastic neutron scattering spectrometers one usually faces a trade-off between energy resolution and counting statistics. If the resolution is improved the intensity at the detectors reduces and vice versa. It is not immediately clear how to weigh both factors against each other. In this paper it is proposed to use the maximum time obtainable by Fourier transform of the spectra as the quantity to be optimised. It is shown that this leads to a well-defined criterion for the choice of the resolution.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
