Malcolm Guthrie

Bio

I am a senior scientist working in the Neutron Science Directorate in the role of computational instrument scientist supporting the engineering diffractometers. I specialize in diffraction techniques and their use to characterise atomic level structure in both crystalline, and non-crystalline phases. I have particular expertise in time-of-flight diffraction, data reduction and diffractometer calibration. I also have a long standing scientific interest in high-pressure structural physics and, prior to working for the SNS, lead the high-pressure platform at the European Spallation Source.
