<p>LANSCE School on Neutron Scattering<br>
Geosciences & Materials in Extreme Environments<br>
<a href="http://lansce.lanl.gov/neutronschool";>http://lansce.lanl.gov/neutronschool</a><br>
<br>
October 16-25, 2013<br>
Lujan Neutron Scattering Center, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos New Mexico<br>
The 2013 LANSCE School on Neutron Scattering will focus on outstanding issues in fundamental and applied earth and geosciences research and materials behavior under extreme environments where characterization with neutrons can and do make important contributions. The school will provide an overview and training, through hands-on exercises, of concepts, instruments and data analysis in neutron scattering techniques such as: diffraction, small angle neutron scattering, local structure determination and neutron reflectometry.<br>
<br>
Educational Goals<br>
Students will become familiar with neutron scattering and how it may be utilized to address important questions in geosciences and materials in extreme environments as well as emerging Earth, energy & environmental issues.<br>
<br>
Intended Audience<br>
The 2013 School is intended primarily for graduate students & post-docs in geosciences, earth sciences, materials science and related fields. Students should have a basic understanding of scattering and diffraction phenomena.<br>
<br>
Overview<br>
The 2013 School will cover:<br>
<br>
* Basic concepts of neutron production, scattering methods and instrumentation.<br>
* Introduction to geosciences and extreme environment research with emphasis on areas of basic and applied research to issues where neutrons can and do make fundamental contributions.<br>
* Why neutrons and isotope contrast enhancement techniques?<br>
* Detailed case studies in earth, geo science and extreme environments research using diffraction, small-angle neutron scattering, reflectometry and chemical neutron spectroscopy.<br>
* High pressure, strain, temperature and other sample environment capabilities in earth and geosciences research.<br>
* Technical aspects of measurement techniques and data analysis.<br>
* Computational techniques that complement and aid in the planning, analysis and interpretation of neutron measurements.<br>
<br>
· Students will give presentations on their favorite hands-on experiment on the final day of the school.<br>
Costs<br>
<br>
· Registration for the school is free. All local expenses (lodging, meals, etc.) are covered for accepted participants.<br>
<br>
· Travel to and from Los Alamos is covered up to a maximum amount of $500.<br>
<br>
Sponsors<br>
· Student participants are supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation<<a href="http://www.nsf.gov/index.jsp";>http://www.nsf.gov/index.jsp</a>> (NSF).<br>
· Instructors and local expenses are supported by the Department of Energy<<a href="http://www.energy.gov/";>http://www.energy.gov/</a>> (DOE) Office of Science<<a href="http://www.er.doe.gov/";>http://www.er.doe.gov/</a>>.<br>
