Neutron science research at Oak Ridge National Laboratory is on its way to promising developments in materials science. Neutron scattering techniques provide exceptional tools for studying the structure and dynamics of materials at the molecular level.
With the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR)—the highest flux reactor-based neutron source for condensed matter research in the United States—and the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS)—the world's most intense pulsed accelerator-based neutron source—ORNL provides neutron scattering capabilities unavailable anywhere else in the world.
NScD Call for Proposals: Proposals for beam time at the HFIR and SNS will be accepted via the web-based proposal system until 11:59 p.m. eastern time, Wednesday, March 3, 2010. This call is for experiments anticipated to run from June through November 2010. More…
See also CNMS Call for Proposals: The Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences (CNMS) is soliciting proposals for user-initiated nanoscience research that will make effective use of CNMS facilities and staff expertise. Deadline for submission: Wednesday, March 3, 2010. Successful applicants will be able to use CNMS facilities starting June 1, 2010.
Neutron & X-ray Scattering School to educate graduate students on the utilization of neutron and x-ray facilities will be conducted this summer at Argonne National Lab, June 12-19, and Oak Ridge National Lab, June 20-26. Deadline for application is March 8, 2010. Applicants are encouraged to register electronically through the Argonne Division of Educational Programs website at www.dep.anl.gov/nx.
