DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Helen Maynard-Casely (Australian Nuclear Science and
  Technology Organisation)\nWombat is a high intensity neutron diffractomet
 er located in the OPAL Neutron Guide Hall. It is primarily used as a high-
 speed powder diffractometer\, but has also expanded into texture character
 isation and single-crystal measurement\, particularly diffuse scattering. 
  The high performance comes from the combination of the best area detector
  ever constructed for neutron diffraction with the largest beam guide yet 
 put into any research reactor and a correspondingly large crystal monochro
 mator\, all combine with the centre’s polarisation capability to provide
  an instrument which is unique within the Southern hemisphere.  \n \nWomba
 t has been used to explore a broad range of materials\, including: novel h
 ydrogen-storage materials\, negative-thermal-expansion materials\, methane
 -ice clathrates\, piezoelectrics\, high performance battery anodes and cat
 hodes\, high strength alloys\, multiferroics\, superconductors and novel m
 agnetic materials. Our poster will highlight both the capacity of the inst
 rument\, and some recent results.\n\nhttps://events01.synchrotron.org.au/e
