Chopper Systems
The mission of the Neutron Chopper Group is to enable the successful and timely delivery of the ESS instrument suite.
Read MoreThe Instrument Technologies Division provides the technological tools required for the design, construction and operation of the neutron instruments at ESS.
State-of-the-art neutron scattering instruments require sophisticated hardware components and systems to fully exploit the unique source characteristics of ESS.
The development of cutting-edge instruments requires a significant development effort in supporting neutron technologies in order that our instruments reach their full potential. Although significant progress has been made over the years in neutron optics, detectors, choppers and electronics hardware it is important for ESS to continue to innovate and find solutions for its special needs provided by our unique pulsed time structure and high neutron flux environment.
Following established best practice at other leading facilities, technical groups will:
