Dear colleagues

The deadline for the MATRAC 2 Winter School 'Application of Neutrons and 
Synchrotron Radiation in Materials Science with special focus on 
Fundamental Aspects of Materials' is postponed by one week to December 8, 
2016. The school will take place in Utting/Ammersee and Garching/Munich, 
Germany from February 27 to March 3, 2017.  Interested students (Ph.D. 
students and Postdocs) are invited to apply.

Best regards

Martin Müller
for the Organising Committee
of the MATRAC 2 Winter School





Dear colleagues

We take pleasure in informing you that registration is now open for our 
MATRAC 2 Winter School 'Application of Neutrons and Synchrotron Radiation 
in Materials Science with special focus on Fundamental Aspects of 
Materials' to be held in Utting/Ammersee and Garching/Munich, Germany, 
February 27 to March 3, 2017 in cooperation with the 
Röntgen-Ångström-Cluster (http://www.rontgen-angstrom.eu) and the BMBF 
(Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung, Germany). 

The Winter School will provide a systematic overview of the application of 
neutrons and synchrotron radiation to the structural analysis of 
materials. The school starts with the fundamentals of synchrotron 
radiation and neutron scattering. The focus is subsequently shifted 
towards neutron techniques and their application to specific problems in 
materials science. Different classes of modern functional materials are 
presented and it will be shown how neutron scattering, on the one hand, 
and synchrotron radiation, on the other hand, can be used to explore the 
microscopic mechanisms that are responsible for their properties. While 
fundamental aspects are dominating, application related phenomena will be 
covered as well.

After a two-day theoretical course in Utting/Ammersee the participants 
will spend two days at the FRM II in Garching (near Munich) doing 
practicals. The fifth day of the school offers further talks and a final 
discussion. All relevant experimental methods will be covered.

Registration deadline is December 1, 2016

For more information please visit our website which will regularly be 
updated:

Please feel free to spread this information amongst colleagues and 
friends.

We are looking forward to your registration.

Best regards

Martin Müller (on behalf of all co-organisers)
