Description
The proposal for the ODIN (Optical and Diffraction Imaging with Neutrons) instrument was submitted in 2012, and the Neuwave workshop has played a significant role in its development. Thanks to a collaborative effort spearheaded by our in-kind partners, PSI and TUM, and driven by the dedicated work of scientists and engineers, ODIN is on track to become one of the first instruments to receive neutrons by the end of 2025. As the ~12 million Euro construction project approaches completion, ESS is preparing for the commissioning and operational phase of the instrument.
In this presentation, we will provide an update on the latest progress and address the challenges encountered in completing the instrument. We will also outline the commissioning plan for ODIN, which includes nine choppers, a T0 chopper, and a ballistic guide system. Additionally, we will discuss the unique challenges and opportunities associated with operating ODIN on a long-pulsed neutron source and the implications of ESS imposing a stringent standard for data acquisition and data storage.
