Instrumentation for neutron reflectivity
Physica B: Condensed Matter, 1991 Abstract The basic requirements for neutron reflectivity experiments are discussed, and some current instrumentation is described. Examples from the reflectometer CRISP are used to demonstrate the present capabilities of the technique and analysis methods in the context of surface chemistry and solid films.

Impact of the neutron-depolarization effect on polarized neutron scattering in ferromagnets
IUCrJ, 2021 It has been known for decades that a ferromagnetic sample can depolarize a transmitted neutron beam. This effect was used and developed into the neutron-depolarization technique to investigate the magnetic structure of ferromagnetic materials.
