[Neutron] HSC12: Synchrotron Radiation and Neutrons for Extreme Condition Studies

[Thomas Hansen]

Dear Neutron Users and those interested in High Pressure studies,

We are pleased to inform you of the Hercules Specialised Course which  
will take place at the ILL, in Grenoble, in September 2010:

HSC12: Synchrotron Radiation and Neutrons for Extreme Condition Studies
Grenoble, 27th September to 2nd October 2010

The purpose of this Hercules Specialised Course is to give the  
participants an introduction to high pressure research at large  
experimental facilities such as the synchrotron and the neutron  
reactor. The basic principles of SR and neutron techniques used to  
explore matter at extreme conditions of pressure and temperature will  
be illustrated. The school will also provide cross-disciplinary  
examples in a representative range of scientific areas, covering  
fundamental physics, earth and planetary science, chemistry and  
material science. The lectures will cover both theoretical and  
experimental aspects for a non-expert audience. They will be  
complemented by tutorials and practicals at several ESRF and ILL beam- 
lines and include an introduction to high pressure cell loading  
techniques.
