Announcement regarding the 4th Neutron and Muon School and MIRAI PhD School 2019
The School provides training for newcomers to neutron and muon beam research from across the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, materials science and more. In addition to lectures, practical sessions are included with hands-on data analysis. All neutron techniques are generally covered, with emphasis on powder diffraction, single-crystal diffraction, strain scanning, small-angle scattering, reflectometry, inelastic and quasi-elastic scattering, and neutron imaging.
The School will be held at the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) of J-PARC. J-PARC is one of Japan's flagship research facilities and is unique in the world in the range and performance of accelerator-based capabilities. MLF, located at the heart of J-PARC, is one of the world's leading centers for pulsed neutron and muon beam-based research.
The 4th Neutron and Muon School is aimed at graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and early-career researchers who are interested in, but have limited or no experience with neutron and muon beam based techniques. This school will be held together with the MIRAI PhD School 2019 (youngMIRAI-2019)
The School will consist of introductory lectures on neutron and muon science and the application of neutron and muon beams in research.
