AONSA Neutron School 16-21 August 2009
This school provides training for newcomers to neutron scattering focussing on nano-science and will be limited to 40 people. 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 2nd Neutron School organised by the Asia-Oceania Neutron Scattering Association - AONSA. The first school was held in 2008 in Korea. Participants will be selected based on an abstract 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.
Deadline for abstracts: 28 April 2009.
