SNS Instrument Systems


	SNS instrument layout. (Click for larger view.)

The SNS instrument hall will eventually contain 24 instruments on 18 beam lines. Each SNS instrument is designed to be the best in its class and to complement the other instruments in the suite. Each instrument is expected to benefit several areas of science.

For more detailed information you can select an instrument below to go to the related instrument's web pages or use this link to select Instrument Fact Sheets. Clicking on the image to the right brings up a page that allows you to select your beamline instrument visually.
