Fig.5-6  Instrument used for neutron polarization analysis that uses the 3He spin filter in a small-angle neutron scattering experiment

The spin of neutrons scattered by a sample was analyzed using the 3He spin filter. A magnetic field was applied to the 3He spin filter with a Helmholtz coil to maintain 3He polarization during the experiment. By installing this instrument to beamline BL15 (i.e., TAIKAN), we verified the usefulness of the 3He spin filter to determine the structure of a material containing hydrogen atoms.
