In previous attempts to determine the internal temperature in systems subjected to dynamic loading, experimenters have usually relied on surface-based optical techniques that are often hampered by insufficient information regarding the emissivity of the surfaces under study. Neutron Resonance Spectroscopy (NRS) is a technique that uses Doppler-broadened neutron resonances to measure internal temperatures in dynamically-loaded samples. NRS has developed its own target-moderator assembly to provide single pulses with an order of magnitude higher brightness than the Lujan production target. The resonance line shapes from which temperature information is extracted are also influenced by non-temperature-dependent broadening from the moderator and detector phosphorescence. Dynamic NRS experiments have been performed to measure the temperature in a silver sheet jet and behind the passage of a shock wave in molybdenum.
