| Popis: | We present an overview of ongoing developments in epithermal neutron spectroscopy using the VESUVIO+ beam line at the ISIS Facility. In its current incarnation, VESUVIO+ provides a suitable platform for further and much-needed progress in the judicious exploitation of epithermal neutrons at a pulsed spallation source, as well as constitutes a necessary milestone towards a next-generation station for Epithermal and Thermal Neutron Analysis, hereafter ETNA. In particular, we discuss recent improvements in capability relative to its predecessor VESUVIO. These include the concurrent use of mass-resolved neutron spectroscopy, transmission, and diffraction to explore the properties of complex functional materials, as well as the implementation of techniques unique to pulsed neutron sources such as γ-ray dopplerimetry and energy-resolved prompt-γ activation analysis. |
