    VIBRATIONAL SPECTROSCOPY WITH NEUTRONS
    With Applications in Chemistry, Biology, Materials Science and Catalysis

    by Philip C H Mitchell (University of Reading, UK) , Stewart F Parker (Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK) , Anibal J Ramirez-Cuesta (Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK) , & John Tomkinson (Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK)

    Chapter 1: Introduction (379k)

    Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) is a spectroscopic technique in which neutrons are used to probe the dynamics of atoms and molecules in solids and liquids. This book is the first, since the late 1960s, to cover the principles and applications of INS as a vibrational-spectroscopic technique. It provides a hands-on account of the use of INS, concentrating on how neutron vibrational spectroscopy can be employed to obtain chemical information on a range of materials that are of interest to chemists, biologists, materials scientists, surface scientists and catalyst researchers. This is an accessible and comprehensive single-volume primary text and reference source.

    • Interpretation and Analysis of Spectra Using Molecular Modelling
    • Analysis of INS Spectra
    • Dihydrogen and Hydrides
    • Surface Chemistry and Catalysis
    • Organic and Organometallic Compounds
    • Hydrogen Bonding

    • Non-Hydrogenous Materials and Carbon
    • Vibrational Spectroscopy with Neutrons — The Future
     
    Readership: Users and potential users of neutron scattering spectroscopy (academics, staff of neutron scattering institutes, researchers and graduate students); solid state vibrational spectroscopists.
     
    “This book provides a very good account of the principles and applications of Inelastic Neutron Scattering (INS) as a vibrational spectroscopic technique, without assuming a high level of background knowledge. It is a piece of work factually novel and done properly, which meets the needs of graduate students as well as both users and potential users of inelastic neutron spectroscopy at academic and research institutions. On the whole the book is quite clearly written, the subject matter rather well developed and the applications of the INS well described in a wide range of materials and problems.”
