We describe a method of white-beam inelastic neutron scattering for improved measurement
efficiency. The method consists of matrix inversion and selective extraction. The former is to
resolve each incident energy component from the white-beam data, and the latter eliminates
contamination by elastic components, which produce strong backgrounds that otherwise
obfuscate the inelastic scattering components. In this method, the optimal experimental
condition to obtain high efficiency will strongly depend on the specific aim of the individual …
