Data Correction of Intensity Modulated Small Angle Scattering.

To investigate long length scale structures using neutron scattering, real space techniques have shown certain advantages over the conventional methods working in reciprocal space. As one of the real space measurement techniques, spin echo modulated small angle neutron scattering (SEMSANS) has attracted attention, due to its relaxed constraints on sample environment and the possibility to combine SEMSANS and a conventional small angle neutron scattering instrument. In this report, we present the first implementation of SEMSANS at a pulsed neutron source and discuss important corrections to the data due to the sample absorption. These corrections allow measurements made with different neutron wavelengths and SEMSANS configurations to be overlaid and give confidence that the measurements provide an accurate representation of the density correlations in the sample.
