Workshops SENS Diffraction School A one-day school/workshop on stress evaluation using neutron and synchrotron diffraction techniques will be held in the week preceding the MECA SENS 2013 conference, on the 6th of September. This event, held in the AINSE Theatre at ANSTO, will serve to enlighten both young researchers and those new to diffraction techniques through a series of lectures by an international panel of experts. These introductory lectures will serve to provide key fundamentals necessary for the subject matter presented during the conference. 2nd AONET Workshop In 2011, the Instrument Scientist Workshop was first held at Tsukuba in Japan by delegates from several countries in Asia-Oceania that currently operate a neutron engineering diffractometer to discuss future activities on neutron engineering diffraction in Asia-Oceania region. The Asia-Oceania network on neutron engineering diffraction (AONET) has been established at time of the workshop. The aim of this 2nd AONET workshop is to obtain beneficial knowledge of instrument developments and upgrades at neutron engineering facilities in Asia-Oceania region as well as to improve activities in the Asia-Oceania community on materials engineering using neutron diffraction. Being a satellite even of the MECA SENS VII in Sydney, the workshop use this opportunity to invite instrument scientists from stress difractometers worldwide and users of stress diffractometers, interested in the technical developments, to join the workshop. |
