Abstract

The High energy Direct geometry spectrometer (HD) is a direct geometry time-of-flight chopper spectrometer currently under construction, and it will be the first inelastic neutron scattering instrument at the China Spallation Neutron Source. With its high neutron flux and a 160° angular coverage of 3 m long position-sensitive 3He detectors, the spectrometer will mainly be used to probe inelastic signals of novel spin and lattice dynamics in condensed matters and functional materials. The HD spectrometer is equipped with three switchable Fermi slit packages providing monochromation for both thermal and epithermal neutrons from 10 meV to 1500 meV, as well as a high-resolution repetition-rate multiplication (RRM) mode using curved slits. A special feature as a strict single incident energy mode can be provided using the combination of specially designed disk choppers and Fermi choppers. The design of the HD spectrometer is discussed in details.
