- Neutrons et métallurgie: la 2FDN organise un workshop visant faire le point sur l’utilisation de la diffusion neutronique dans le domaine de la métallurgie. Il se déroulera le 11 décembre 2025 au TOTEM, Paris 13ieme.
Option Zeta+ sur IN22 désormais disponible pour les utilisateurs.
Nikolaos Biniskos et Frédéric Bourdarot souhaitent attirer votre attention sur la nouvelle option ZETA+, « Neutron Resonant Spin Echo » de 3ème génération, maintenant disponible pour vos futures expériences sur IN22.Cette option permet de mesurer le temps de vie d’excitations de réseau, mais aussi, d’excitations magnétiques. Elle permet également de réaliser de la « Diffraction de Larmor », ce qui donne les possibilités de mesurer la distribution de paramètres de maille, de faire des mesures de dilation thermique « bulk » (variation de la valeur moyenne du paramètre de maille jusqu’à 2×10-5 Å) et de mesurer la mosaïque d’un cristal. Elle permet également d’étudier les domaines magnétiques ainsi que les défauts d’empilement des plans magnétiques (sous certaines conditions).
Un autre type de mesure réalisable avec cette option est la détermination de très faibles distorsions cristallographiques (jusqu’à 5.0×10-4 Å) et la mesure de « mini-gaps » d’excitation de quelque dizaines de µeV pour des excitations de quelques meV.
IN22 est un CRG disponible soit par proposition via l’ILL soit par des demandes aux comités de la 2FDN.
- La Fédération Française de Diffusion Neutronique (2FDN) change de direction. Julian Oberdisse (L2C, Montpellier) et Dalila Bounoua (LLB, Saclay) prennent la direction pour le prochain mandat, à partir du 1 janvier 2026.
La direction sortante remercie chaleureusement tous les membres de la fédération, en particulier son comité de direction, ainsi que les membres du comité scientifique, qui ont contribué à son bon fonctionnement.

Dynamics of Water in Nanopores: QENS Reveals the Role of Surface Charge
Taking advantage of the unique sensitivity of quasi-elastic neutron scattering to local dynamics, the present study reveals the colossal impact of surface charge on the diffusivity of water molecules confined in a nano-channel.
