Guide Test Station

Guide Test StationG-TS Guide Test Station
  • The Guide Test Station (G-TS) is a vertical-type polarized neutron refractometer installed in a CG1 guide. This instrument is used to measure the magnetic structure of nano-magnetic thin films including neutron super-mirrors used for guiding tubes.
