Abstract
A new scattering kernel to describe the interaction of slow neutrons with solid deuterium was developed. The main characteristics of that system are contained in the formalism, including the lattice's density of states, the Young-Koppel quantum treatment of the rotations, and the internal molecular vibrations. The elastic processes involving coherent and incoherent contributions are fully described, as well as the spin-correlation effects. The results from the new model are compared with the best available experimental data, showing very good agreement.
