Ames Laboratory Neutron and X-ray Scattering Group

The Ames Laboratory neutron and x-ray scattering group is dedicated to the use of neutron and x-ray scattering for the study of condensed matter physics and materials science.  The group is an unique combination of scientific research, spectrometer development and service to the user community, all in the midst of a university teaching environment.  We benefit from being part of the Condensed Matter Physics Program at Ames Laboratory (a U. S. Department of Energy laboratory) and the Physics and Astronomy Department at Iowa State University.   In addition, the group maintains facilities at the High Flux Isotope Reactor at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory.  Please follow the links and tabs to learn more about our group.
