Description

The Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering offers neutron polarisation capabilities which are compatible with six different neutron scattering instruments, using a combination of polarising supermirrors and $^3$He cell spin filters. An overview of these capabilities will be given, followed by a description of some recent experiments which make use of a variety of these capabilities on instruments, including the cold triple-axis spectrometer Sika, and the small-angle neutron scattering instrument Quokka with a recently-commissioned 7 T compensated vertical magnet. Finally, current and future work to expand capabilities will be outlined, such as a new system for polarisation analysis experiments with magnetic fields controlled in 3D for the time-of-flight spectrometer Pelican which will soon be offered to the user community, and a bespoke 0.5 T horizontal magnet system for the thermal triple-axis spectrometer Taipan.
