This meeting, jointly organised by the IoP/RSC Neutron Scattering Group, ISIS and ILL, is a chance for UK users of neutrons and muons to hear about latest science using these techniques, together with facility updates and other news of interest to the community. It will take place in the University of Warwick Conference Centre. The meeting normally attracts over 300 neutron and muon users.
The structure of the meeting will be:
-
Wednesday 10 April (11am onwards): Student Day
A chance for students who are using neutrons or muons in their projects to meet other students, learn more about neutron and muon techniques and present their work.
-
Thursday 11 April (9am onwards): Science Day
Plenary talks together with parallel sessions based around five themes. A chance to hear latest results from members of the community
-
Friday 12 April (9am - 1.15pm followed by lunch): User Day
Facility updates and other news of interest to ISIS and ILL users.
A detailed programme will be available nearer to the meeting date.
