iThemba LABS (iTL) signed a Memorandum of Agreement with the National Metrology Institute of South Africa (NMISA) to designate the quasi mono-energetic neutron beam facility of iTL as a metrology facility in the energy range 30 – 200 MeV. A program to upgrade the facility is being undertaken. The improvements and the motivations for them will be explained.
