A beam of thermal neutrons emerges from a nuclear reactor and is incident on a crystal. The beam is Bragg scattered from crystal whose scattering planes are separated by 0.247 nm. From the continuous energy spectrum of the beam we wish to select neutrons of energy 0.0105 eV. Find the Bragg scattering angle that results in a scattered beam of this energy. Will other energies also be present in the scattered beams?
