Filed:
Jul 7, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/511702
Inventors:
Max A. Vogel - Kennewick WA
Paul Alter - Richland WA
Assignee:

International Classification:

Abstract:
An apparatus for precisely positioning materials test specimens within the optimum neutron flux path emerging from a neutron source located in a housing. The test specimens are retained in a holder mounted on the free end of a support pivotably mounted and suspended from a movable base plate. The support is gravity biased to urge the holder in a direction longitudinally of the flux path against the housing. Means are provided for moving the base plate in two directions to effect movement of the holder in two mutually perpendicular directions normal to the axis of the flux path.
