Commissioning of the novel Continuous Angle Multi-Energy Analysis Spectrometer at the Paul Scherrer Institut

We report on the commissioning results of the cold neutron multiplexing secondary spectrometer CAMEA ($\mathbf{\text{C}}$ontinuous $\mathbf{\text{A}}$ngle $\mathbf{\text{M}}$ulti-$\mathbf{\text{E}}$nergy $\mathbf{\text{A}}$nalysis) at the Swiss Spallation Neutron Source (SINQ) at the Paul Scherrer Institut, Switzerland. CAMEA is optimized for an efficient data acquisition of scattered neutrons in the horizontal scattering plane, allowing for detailed and rapid mapping of low-energy excitations under extreme sample environment conditions.
