Abstract

Of the planned suite of powder and single-crystal diffractometers for the HFIR, only two are currently operating: the Neutron Residual Stress Mapping Facility (NRSF2) diffractometer and the Wide Angle Neutron Diffractometer (WAND). The NSRF2 was recently upgraded and is available to external users via the High Temperature Materials Laboratory (HTML) User Program for studies of stress, texture and phase mapping [1]. This dedicated facility replaces a facility that began operation in 1991.
