Albe 1998 - La grande Motte 2009 : quelles avanc\'ees en diffusion de neutrons aux petits angles en 10 ans ?

Abstract

The importance of neutron scattering techniques for the characterization of samples in soft condensed matter has been demonstrated all along the present book. The fine understanding of the physical properties is closely linked to progress in the field of instrumentation. This chapter describes the advances over the last decade in technical domains, such as neutron detection, electronics and sample environment. The news software for data reduction and analysis are also discussed before to conclude with the ILL and LLB projects for new instruments.
