Inelastic neutron scattering
The structure factor gives information about the structure:
What about the terms that stabilize this structure ? What about the Hamiltonian of the system ?
Investigate the excited states ….

The dispersion relation connects the wavevector k and the frequency w (energy) Neutron directly measure w(k)
Classical elementary magnetic excitations are spin waves

Summary
Inelastic scattering : dispersion of elementary excitations : phonons, spin waves can be measured in (Q,w) space. With the help of a model, it becomes possible to determine the structure and measure physical parameteres as k, J, D …
