A new quasi-monoenergetic neutron beam facility has been constructed at The Svedberg Laboratory (TSL) in Uppsala, Sweden. Key features include a neutron energy range of 11–175 MeV, high fluxes, user flux control, flexible neutron field size and shape, and spacious and easily accessible user area. The first results of the beam characterisation measurements are reported.
