| Neutrons are produce by accelerating protons up to 800 MeV. These are then injected into a tungsten target, producing secondary neutrons. Through hydrogenous moderators to a variety of instruments the neutron spectrum simultaneously includes thermal and cold neutrons. The fast neutron beamline is extracted through the addition of a new channel in the beryllium reflector. Neutrons from this channel illuminate a secondary scatterer made to optimize the hard atmospheric-like neutron spectrum. With an independent shutter the neutron beam can be closed and opened while the accelerator is running. The schematic is shown below. | Neutrons are produce by accelerating protons up to 800 MeV.

| + | The collimator system provides flexibility with respect to the beam size. The beam size ranges from 1m x 1m down to a few $cm^2$. The figure below shows the beam uniformity profile for a beam size of 70mm x 70mm (typical order of magnitude for electronics size). As shown below, the beam is mostly uniform within the 2% level. | ||
