What Does NIS Stand For?
NIS stands for Neutron Inelastic Scattering
NIS, or Neutron Inelastic Scattering, is a powerful experimental technique used in condensed matter physics and materials science to investigate the dynamic properties of materials at an atomic level. By directing neutrons at a sample and measuring the energy and momentum transfer during scattering events, researchers can gain insights into molecular vibrations, lattice dynamics, and other excitations in materials. This technique is particularly valuable for understanding phase transitions, magnetic properties, and the behavior of complex systems under various conditions.
