MASTER CLASS ON "NEUTRON PRECESSION TECHNIQUES" [2] 

Course directors: Peter Falus (ILL, Grenoble) and Klaus Habicht (HZB,
Berlin) 

IVth [2] course of the Erice School "NEUTRON SCIENCE AND
INSTRUMENTATION" [2] 

1st - 8th of July 2017 

The IVth [2] Course [2] is primarily aimed at young researchers,
instrument and development scientists at international and national
neutron facilities who have a basic understanding of neutron scattering
but have less background in polarized neutron instrumentation. Graduate
students or postdocs at universities with an interest in neutron
instrumentation projects are also highly welcome. 

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN [3] via the form at the link below and closes
on 10th May 2017

(Please note, that you will receive an automated confirmation e-mail, if
you do not, please contact one of the organisers listed below.) 

The Course on " [2]Neutron Precession Techniques [2]" [2] aims to
provide students with the fundamental concepts and the theoretical
framework of neutron precession methods. It is organized as a master
class and offers both, a coherent set of introductory lectures for PhD
students or young researchers at the postdoctoral level as well as
expert discussions led by senior scientists with the aim to exchange
experience and develop novel instrumentation ideas. The specialized
topic focusses on neutron instrumentation techniques which are based on
the Larmor precession of the neutron magnetic moment in dedicated
magnetic field arrangements. a It comprises neutron spin-echo techniques
as well as novel Larmor labelling methods such as SESANS, SEMSANS and
MIEZE. 

Selection criteria for applications to the course 

The number of applications usually exceeds the number of places
available on the course, thus there is a selection procedure for
allocating the places. To apply send a 'personal statement' and a
'statement from your supervisor'. The criteria used in making the
selection are as follows: 

	* 

Preference is given to applicants who, in the judgement of the selection
committee will make a major use of neutron scattering in their studies
or work. 
	* 

Preference is given to early stage researchers from neutron facilities,
universities or other research institutions. 

We encourage applicants to submit a strong 'personal statement'
emphasising the significance of neutron scattering and especially
precession techniques in their research. 

The course includes accommodation at the Ettore Majorana Foundation [5]
(EMFCSC). Click here [6] to download the neutron course flyer in PDF
