Description
The construction of the high-flux PIK reactor is coming to the final
stage. Its neutron guide system design is almost frozen and will be
presented in details during the talk. The reasons behind design
choices will also be discussed.
The guide system is fed by 2 beam tubes: one equipped with cold
neutron sources and the other is thermal one. In total 13 cold and 5
thermal instrument will use neutron beams provided by the neutron
optics. All guides were optimized with respect to the instrument beam
requirements and many geometrical constraints. Some special features
like a special guide tilting the beam will be discussed as well as
future opportunities for further system expansion.
