Abstract
Inelastic neutron scattering provides a unique method to observe proto ns in coals. New measurements of the full S(Q, omega) map for a coal s ample containing similar to 5 wt% of protons are presented. Peaks of i ntensity due to vibrations of protons bound to heavy atoms are clearly observed. Underneath there is a ridge of intensity due to recoil of f ree protons.
