[senesi]

Announcement: IX School of Neutron Scattering Francesco Paolo Ricci
"APPLICATION OF NEUTRONS TO STRUCTURAL DETERMINATION IN SOFT MATTER: FROM
SHORT AND MEDIUM RANGE ORDER TO WETTING PROCESSES"
September 22nd 2008- October 3rd 2008
Hotel Flamingo, Santa Margherita di Pula (CA)- Sardinia (Italy)

This school, established in 1994, is primarily addressed to graduate
students or post-docs with an interest in Neutron Scattering.
The School will include lectures, tutorials and hands-on data
analysis sessions, covering various aspects of Neutron Scattering, but with
an emphasis on techniques and instrumentation oriented towards the
study of Near and Intermediate Range Order in Liquids and Soft Matter, along
with Wetting Processes. An international group of recognized experts will
constitute the teaching body. The school will be held in the Conference
Centre of the Hotel Flamingo, Santa Margherita di Pula (CA) . The official
language of the school is English. Candidate participants should fill the
Registration Form available at the website
