Transmission Bragg-Edge Measurements

  • Chapter
Measurement of Residual and Applied Stress Using Neutron Diffraction

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 216))

Abstract

The transmission of polycristalline materials in a white neutron spectrum shows sharp edges as a function of neutron wavelength or time-of-flight. They correspond to the breakdown of the Bragg interference condition for those sets of lattice planes which scatter by 180 degrees. Materials stresses as well as texture will influence the position and shape of the edges. Transmission measurements may be favourable for a number of experimental tasks.
