Dynamics of Solids and Liquids by Neutron Scattering

Dynamics of Solids and Liquids by Neutron Scattering edited by S. W. Lovesey, T. Springer.

Inelastic neutron scattering is a well established and important technique for studying the dynamical properties of condensed matter at the atomic level. Often, as is the case of experiments designed to study motions of hydrogen atoms, or magnetic excitations, it may yield information obtainable in...
