Neutron Scattering

We combine several inelastic neutron scattering techniques to investigate collective dynamics in biomimetic and biological membranes in an as large as possible range of momentum and energy transfer. The use of highly aligned multi lamellar membrane stacks allows to orient the bilayers with respect to the incoming neutron beam to perfectly distinguish between in plane dynamical modes and perpendicular motions.
