Abstract

We describe a recently developed technique for high pressure high temperature neutron scattering up to 7 GPa and 2000 K with a novel radiographic method to determine the temperature under pressure. We demonstrate the technique by some recent results on hydrous minerals (namely brucite and ice VII) and on spinel MgAl2O4, where neutrons still have an unchallenged advantage over X-rays. Future scientific opportunities are outlined.
