TOPICS

As a scientific tool, neutron scattering, with its ability to probe length scales from atomic to microns and time scales down to picoseconds, is ideally suited to the study of a wide range of materials and problems in a variety of areas such as soft and hard condensed matter, biology, magnetism, engineering materials, chemical spectroscopy, crystal structure, and fundamental physics. With the unprecedented number of new and upgrade neutron source projects being undertaken around the world, this is a particularly good time to focus on the many recent advances in the field.

This meeting intends to showcase the breadth of recent scientific results achieved through the use of neutron techniques as well as exciting developments in neutron related instrumentation from software to new source development. In this spirit, all aspects of the technique and applications of neutron scattering will be discussed. General topical areas meant to be inclusive of the current diversity of the technique include:

  1. Soft Condensed Matter
  2. Biological Sciences
  3. Condensed Matter Physics
  4. Chemistry/Earth Sciences
  5. Engineered and Applied Materials
  6. Neutron Physics
  7. Instrument Concepts/Techniques/Devices
  8. Sample Environment
  9. Software
  10. Facilities/Source Development
  11. Plenary
  12. General
