[Neutron] Workshop on SANS and SAXS, 16.-17.12.2025 in Grenoble (Special session for Thomas Zemb)

[von Klitzing, Regine]

Dear colleagues,
The ILL and ESRF are organising a workshop in Grenoble on December 16 & 17 on the combined use of SANS, SAXS and complementary techniques. Call for abstracts will close on November 30th, and the deadline for registration is December 3rd.
Website: https://workshops.ill.fr/e/stereoXN
Understanding the microstructure of complex fluids across multiple scales is essential for building predictive models. While Small Angle Scattering provides invaluable data, fitting individual scattering profiles that often have few features may yield numerical outputs rather than deep physical insights. A paradigm shift occurs when integrating complementary techniques: By combining SAXS, SANS, static and dynamic light scattering with Molecular Dynamics or random Gaussian wavelets simulations, researchers can achieve robust, quantitative analyses.
This symposium will explore advanced methodologies that bridge scattering techniques with enthalpic and entropic considerations, enabling the development of practical modelling strategies. We will highlight breakthroughs in critical applications, from innovative recycling separation processes to the design of biomimetic colloids with antiviral potential.
The workshop will also include a special session to honour the career and contributions of Thomas Zemb, a pioneer in the field of colloids and their application in recycling and green processes, as he is moving to an emeritus status 53 years after his first publication with Francis Perrin.
We look forward to welcoming you to Grenoble.
On behalf of the organising team,
Sylvain Prévost, Fabienne Testard, Theyencheri Narayanan, and Regine v. Klitzing
