ISIS is now seeking its next phase of new instruments and significant instrument developments: a portfolio of projects that has been called the Endeavour programme. Endeavour will see the ISIS instrument suite developed to meet current and future challenges in areas such as Materials for the Future; Smart, Flexible and Clean Energy Technologies; Advanced Manufacturing; and Biosciences and Healthcare. More information can be found on the Endeavour we​bpage​. ​​​

Browse Instruments By Technique

  • Chip Irradiation
    ISIS offers a facility for rapid testing of high energy neutron effects. ChipIR looks at how silicon microchips respond to cosmic neutron radiation.
  • Imaging
    ISIS instrument IMAT provides a unique combination of neutron imaging and neutron diffraction techniques.
  • Muon spectroscopy
    Muon Spectroscopy provides a probe of materials at an atomic level.
  • Neutron diffraction
    Neutron diffraction experiments determine the atomic and/or magnetic structure of a material. This technique can be applied to study crystalline solids, gasses, liquids or amorphous materials.
  • Neutron Reflectometry (NR)
    Neutron reflectometry is a technique for measuring the structure of thin films.
  • Neutron spectroscopy
    Neutron spectroscopy measures the atomic and magnetic motions of atoms.
  • Small angle scattering
    Small angle neutron scattering is a neutron technique able to probe structures at length scales from around 1 nanometre to more than 100 nanometres.
  • Which technique to use?
    Read an overview on the different types of instruments at the facility and the merits of each technique.
