Preliminary programme
Abstract template
A3 poster
This school provides training for newcomers to neutron scattering focussing on nanoscience. We will not only have lectures, but also practical sessions with hands-on experiments and data analysis. All neutron techniques (available at ANSTO) will be covered in the school, i.e. powder diffraction, single-crystal diffraction, strain scanning, small-angle scattering, reflectometry, and inelastic scattering using three-axis spectrometers.
This is the 4th Neutron School organised by the Asia-Oceania Neutron Scattering Association - AONSA. The first school was held in 2008 in Korea.
Important dates
Deadline for Abstracts: 7 September 2011 (CLOSED)

Who
This school is aimed at PhD students and post docs - novice users and will be limited to 40 people. Participants will be selected based on an abstract (300 words max.) outlining an aspect of their scientific project to be presented as a poster at the school. The abstract should also address how neutrons could help in their research projects, give the name of the supervisor and indicate which instrument to use in the practicals.
Fee
Participants will be asked for a course fee of $AUD650 (AINSE members $400). This includes 5 nights (shared accommodation) all meals, a Sydney harbour cruise and all learning activities. Accommodation will be shared twin rooms (a single room will be at extra cost - if available) in the Lucas Heights Motel (arrival Saturday 12 November afternoon for registration and finish Thursday late afternoon).
