Time-of-Flight Neutron Scattering
L2 is the length of the scattered flight path from the sample to the detector
L1 is the length of the incident flight path from the moderator to the sample
The time of flight (TOF) is the time in µs taken for a neutron to travel 1m (µs m-1)
Total flight path length L is L1 + L2
The time of arrival at the detector, t0 , is the TOF (µs m-1 ) multiplied by the total flight path (m)

Q resolution of a total scattering measurement
Under the conditions that the wavelengths of the scattered neutrons are measured by time of flight with detectors at fixed scattering angle 2θ, it can be shown that the resolution ΔQ/Q of the TOF neutron diffractometer is roughly constant as a function of TOF.

Q-resolution is particularly important for total scattering studies In total scattering studies it is important to accurate measure both the sharp Bragg and the diffuse scattering components.
