CHRNS Education & Outreach Programs
A focus on visual instructional materials is important to appeal to a wide range of people. As such, CHRNS has produced and/or uses a series of videos that can appeal the range of audiences from elementary school students to members of our scientific community.
Videos for Research Scientists
Safety is a high priority at NIST and NCNR. For this purpose, Sample Environment produced a series of safety guideline videos.
- How to Measure Liquid Helium Levels (4:47) - WMV, High Quality MPEG-4 or Low Quality MPEG-4,
- How to Refill Liquid Helium Levels (6:35) - WMV, High Quality MPEG-4 or Low Quality MPEG-4,
- How to Seal a Sample (5:25) - Windows Media File or MPEG-4
- How to Mount a Sample in a CCR (5:53)- Windows Media File or MPEG-4
- How to Unload a Sample (2:52)- Windows Media File or MPEG-4
- Gas Cylinder Safety (4:34) - Windows Media File, High Quality MPEG-4 or Low Quality MPEG-4
- Transporting Cylinders (4:00) - Windows Media File, High Quality MPEG-4 or Low Quality MPEG-4
To instruct visiting scientists in the use of the SANS Reduction and Analysis software, SANS team members produced this series of videos. The following can be viewed with Quicktime.
- SANS Fundamentals - An overview of the small-angle neutron scattering technizue, with a focus on theory.
- SANS Experimental Methods - A how-to video on planning a small-angle neutron scattering experiment with a focus on what data is necessary to reduce SANS data.
- SANS Data Analysis - A general step-by-step guide on analyzing SANS data. A PDF copy* of the presentation shown is also available.
- SANS Concentrated Particle Solutions - An explanation of the correlation between particle interactions and SANS data.
- SANS Dilute Particle Solutions - How to interpret SANS data when particles have no interactions.
