Abstract

Small-angle neutron scattering studies of biological macromolecules have developed rapidly in recent years due to the advent of high neutron-flux reactors,† efficient position-sensitive area detectors for neutrons (Allemand et al. 1975) and novel design of instruments (Ibel, 1976). At the same time position-sensitive detectors for X-rays (Gabriel & Dupont, 1972) have revitalized the small-angle X-ray scattering field (Kratky & Pilz, 1972; Luzzati et al. 1976) and it is now becoming clear that neutrons and X-rays can provide complementary structural information on biological complexes.
