We Have Seen How <strong>Neutron</strong> <strong>Scattering</strong><br />
Can Determine a Variety of Structures<br />

but what happens when the a<strong>to</strong>ms are moving?<br />
Can we determine the directions and<br />
time-dependence of a<strong>to</strong>mic motions?<br />
Can well tell whether motions are periodic?<br />
Etc.<br />
β = 8.6(4)<br />
β = 6.9(4)<br />
β = 6.2(5)<br />
surfaces & interfaces disordered/fractals biomachines<br />
These are the types of questions answered<br />
by inelastic neutron scattering
