Abstract

Neutron resonance spin echo (NRSE) as a variant of neutron spin echo (NSE) has the advantage that it needs only relatively small magnetic coils. Field inhomogeneities are therefore less important than in NSE. We have built a new type of NRSE spectrometer that overcomes the main limitation of NRSE towards high-energy resolution. Our setup profits from a new longitudinal NRSE field geometry which allows to use Fresnel coils correcting for the beam divergence effect, while former NRSE setups with transversal static magnetic fields could not use Fresnel coils. We demonstrate the function of the longitudinal resonance flip coils, and show first results of spin echo test measurements performed by means of the new setup.
