Correlation effects in multiple small-angle neutron scattering at the surface layers of inhomogeneities

详细

The influence of spatial correlations on the angular distribution of multiple small-angle neutron scattering (MSANS) at the surface layers of inhomogeneities is studied. Calculations are carried out by taking instrumental distortions into account when observing multiple small-angle neutron scattering by means of methods of a double-crystal diffractometer and a small-angle diffractometer with a position-sensitive detector. Within the framework of the eikonal approximation, the MSANS line is calculated, and the influence of the surface-layer thickness and the inhomogeneity concentration on its width is studied.
