Abstract:
Neutrons play an important role in the study of proteins. The best known example is the determination of protein structures using neutron diffraction. Less well known, but possibly even more important in the future, is the determination of protein fluctuations using neutron scattering. Here, the background is sketched and some recent measurements are described that show how a relevant and revealing range of relaxation rates can be explored.
