Properties of the cold-neutron beam at the FUNSPIN facility of the SINQ neutron source of the Paul Scherrer Institute, Villigen, Switzerland were investigated. The measured flux density F ¼ ð2:46 AE 0:04Þ Â 10 8 ½cm 2 s mA À1 ; the wavelength averaged mean polarization around the beam axis P A ¼ ð95
Using liquid hydrogen, condensed by cooled helium gas, reactor neutrons can be moderated to subthermal energies. For energies between 5 and 0"3 meV the neutron flux is increased by factors of between 5 and 26. The hydrogen condensation is carried out in a thermosiphon system inside the beam part of
