โฆ Synopsis
In order to gain insight into the different contributions of the sample and instrument to the scattered intensity in neutron scattering experiments, the total simulation of such experiments is being developed. The method combines molecular dynamics sample simulations and Monte-Carlo instrument simulations. Virtual experiments currently allow absorption, multiple scattering and any kind of elastic/inelastic, coherent/incoherent scattering processes to be investigated.

A new sample component is presented for the Monte Carlo, ray-tracing program, McStas, which is widely used to simulate neutron scattering instruments. The new component allows the sample to be described by its material dynamic structure factor, which is separated into coherent and incoherent contrib
By considering the neutron scattering from magnetic systems, it is suggested that quantum entanglement can only be observed if the energy resolution of the experiment is smaller than the energy difference between the entangled state and most of the excitations of the system. This condition is not sa
