National School on Neutron and X-ray Scattering

- denotes item is in PDF format, requiring the use of the Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Purpose: The main purpose of the National School on Neutron and X-ray Scattering is to educate graduate students on the utilization of major neutron and x-ray facilities. Lectures, presented by researchers from academia, industry, and national laboratories, will include basic tutorials on the principles of scattering theory and the characteristics of the sources, as well as seminars on the application of scattering methods to a variety of scientific subjects. Students will conduct four short experiments at Argonne's Advanced Photon Source Division and Intense Pulsed Neutron Source Division to provide hands-on experience for using neutron and synchrotron sources.
