IV Workshop on Small-Angle Neutron Scattering MURomets 2016
28-30 September 2016 Gatchina, Orlova Roscha, Petersburg Nuclear Physics Institute, building №7ФГБУ ПИЯФWorkshop on
Small-Angle Neutron Scattering MURomets 2016 deals with the study of
nano-objects and nanostructures by means of neutron scattering. The purpose of
the workshop is the activation of
The scope of the meeting covers many areas of science in which small-angle neutron scattering plays an important role of indispensable tool in the study of objects of physics, chemistry and biology.
The scientific program of the workshop includes the following topics:
- instruments for small-angle neutron scattering and neutron reflectometry;
- reflectometry and small-angle diffraction for the study of magnetism;
- the use of small-angle neutron scattering for chemistry and material science;
- the use of small-angle neutron scattering for biology;
- new
techniques of small-angle neutron scattering.
Russian is the working language of the workshop; however, some talks will be presented
in English.
Russian mega-science project “Reactor PIK neutron facility”
The conference is dedicated to the power
start-up of the reactor PIK scheduled in 2018.
The PIK neutron research reactor is to become
a state-of-art large-scale user research center
based on the most powerful neutron source
of continuous operation capable of coping with
national and international demands for the use
of neutron beams for research purposes in
the coming decades.
