First neutron school on OPAL neutron-beam instruments

Over the last few days we hosted our first neutron school on the OPAL neutron-beam instruments: ANSTO/AINSE Neutron School on Diffraction in Collaboration with IAEA. Some 30 PhD students and postdocs, selected from 55 applications, participated.

 

The first half of the school consisted of lecture sessions and posters in which the participants presented their own projects and where they considered neutron scattering could be advantageous.

 

The participants found the hands-on experience on the powder-diffraction instruments and the strain scanner very beneficial, although we had no neutrons to show the real performance.

 

However, we used previously collected data for data analysis: each group presented their results on the last day of the school.
