[Edwards, Laura Morris]

To the SNS and HFIR User Community -

User Meeting registration closes Friday, October 9, 2015

Nominations for the Excellence in Beamline Science Award are due today - please see website for details.

Please join us for the 2015 SNS and HFIR User Meeting<https://public.ornl.gov/conferences/neutrons/USER2015/>
Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tennessee,
October 26 and 27, 2015

The aims of this meeting are to bring together current and potential neutron users to discuss recent scientific results utilizing neutrons and to strengthen the representation of the needs of the neutron user community. This meeting will emphasize current and emerging research trends that will influence the development of new neutron facilities, specifically the Second Target Station at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

The 2015 meeting will include plenary lectures by Despina Louca (UVA), Mike Crawford (DuPont) and Ken Herwig (NScD).

This Users' Meeting will highlight a broad range of scientific areas utilizing neutrons, including recent advances in sample environments and data analysis and modeling. We encourage all users to get involved in this important meeting, and help shape the future of neutron science at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In addition, everyone is welcome to attend the SHUG Town Hall Meeting and a poster session covering all breakout topics.

Additionally, in response to user feedback about data analysis needs, we are pleased to offer software tutorials<https://public.ornl.gov/conferences/neutrons/USER2015/workshops.shtml> for several software packages developed at ORNL that are available for data modeling, analysis, and visualization.  The tutorials will be held October 24-25, 2015 prior to the Users' Meeting.  Registration for software tutorials is done via the meeting registration form.

A workshop on the Second Target Station (STS<https://public.ornl.gov/conferences/neutrons/STS2015/>) will follow the  Users' Meeting and will be held October 27-29, 2015.  We encourage User Meeting attendees to participate in the STS workshop events (please note that a separate registration<https://public.ornl.gov/conferences/neutrons/STS2015/> for the STS workshop is required and also closes October 9).
