15、e solid angle access to NCNR cold source enables a unique cold neutron spectrometer.MACS employs Bragg optics to focus the beam and provide 108 n/cm2/s on the sample at 0.2 meV resolution. The MACS detector concept offers the versatility, resolution, and low background of a TAS with 20 times greater
16、 data rate. The highly efficient constant E mode of MACS will provide a unique capability for probing the structure of fluctuating systems.MACS will be complementary to the DCS and future SNS TOF spectrometers because of its unique data collection protocolNSF partnership is needed to realize the potential and make the unique capabilities available to widest possible cross section of the US scientific community,
