Our first neutron beamtime at the D33 instrument at ILL

We have received 2 days of neutron scattering beamtime at Institute Laue Langevin in Grenoble, France. We have performed half polarized small-angle neutron scattering experiments at the D33 instrument on our magnetic nanoparticle dispersions, to reveal the magnetic structure of differently shaped and sized nanoparticles under applied various magnetic fields. Enjoy a few photos from our trip!!

The location of the Institut Laue-Langevin, which is an international research centre at the leading edge of neutron science and technology (https://www.ill.eu/)! It is surrounded by three Alps massives, namely, Vercors, Chartreuse, and Belledonne massive.

Experiments were going smoothly without problems, and we have received interesting results!!! Thank you ILL!! A small pick on us how we work (also through the night). You can see us at the instrument, changing the sample, checking the radioactivity, doing the data treatment, consulting the data, and setting up the measurement scripts.
