Abstract

Neutron K lines were directly observed using incoherent elastic neutron scattering. Hence, direct evidence for a fundamental diffraction phenomenon of neutron spherical waves interacting with a three-dimensional periodic potential was obtained. The results open the door for applications of thermal neutron K lines, particularly the direct determination of crystallographic phases in hydrogen-rich materials.
