Cold Neutrons in
  Biology and Technology (CNBT)

The proposed 2-axis neutron reflectometer/diffractometer on the NIST cold neutron source, based on the NG1 reflectometer and a new 2-D proportional counter (Blasie, Majkrzak-NIST, and collaborators).

Neutron reflectivity and interferometry are critical probes of molecular films. Blasie collaborates with Majkrzak (NIST) using the NG1 reflectometer at NIST. He is co-PI on a pending CBNT proposal to NCRR/NIH. The latter would provide an upgraded instrument (see figure), which would be optimal for the neutron experiments on biomolecular materials.
