The compact pulsed neutron source facility can play an important role in the research, education, user training, and development of the advanced neutron scattering instruments. The materials for the target, moderator, reflector (TMR) and their configurations must be optimized to get the optimal yield of neutrons with energy in the range of 1 meV to eV order which depends on the proton energy and its nuclear reaction. Several kinds of materials of the TMR, their configurations, and their dimensions are investigated by the Monte Carlo simulation and optimized for developing the compact pulsed neutron source. The results would contribute to the construction of the Compact Pulsed Hadron Source (CPHS) of Tsinghua University.

The stress orientation distribution function (SODF) was recently introduced as a mean-field representation to describe the grain-orientation dependence of intergranular stress. Pulsed neutron sources are ideally suited for the determination of the SODF since multiple reflections can be measured simultaneously with comparable precision. A method is developed for constructing the SODF from strain pole figures measured with a pulsed neutron source and demonstrated with cold-rolled interstitial-free steel. The experimental results are compared with those measured with a reactor-based constant-wavelength diffractometer. It is shown that access to a large number of reflections on a pulsed neutron source improves the precision of the experimental SODF and facilitatesin situstudies of the evolution of the intergranular stress during deformation and annealing.
