<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The
High Resolution Spectroscopy Tutorial will include a discussion of neutron
scattering fundamentals, a comparison of instrument capabilities, and talks
that describe the types of experiments that can be performed using two of the
neutron scattering instruments at the NIST Center for Neutron Research: the
Disk Chopper Spectrometer, and the High Flux Backscattering Spectrometer. These
instruments are used to probe rotations, relaxations, diffusional dynamics, and
vibrations in materials on timescales from microseconds to picoseconds. We
shall also review methods to reduce, analyze, and visualize data obtained using
these instruments.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
