We outline a strategy for quantitatively evaluating the conformationalcharacteristics of self-assembled structures using the techniques of contrastvariation small angle neutron scattering. By means of basis function expansion,a case study of spherical micelles demonstrates that the intra-particlehydration and polymer distributions can be determined from the coherentscattering intensity in a model-free manner. Our proposed approach is simple,analytical and does not require a presumptive hypothesis of scattering functionas an input in data analysis. The successful implementation of the proposedapproach opens the prospect of quantifying the nanoscale complexity of softmatter using neutron scattering.
