 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.

 +===== Neutron Spectrum =====
  
 +The resulting neutron spectrum look like the figure below.

 +===== Beam Profile =====
 +
 +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.
