Description
Summary:Prospects for creating a Kurchatov Institute Neutron Center based on the IR-8 reactor with a hydrogen cold neutron source, neutron guides, and new experimental facilities in the neutron guide hall and the reactor hall are discussed. Such a center will have a wide range of equipment enabling research using various new techniques, both in core aspects and in the area of nanotechnologies, surface physics, and study of material in extreme conditions.
