on Neutron and X-ray Scattering is to educate graduate students on the
utilization of major neutron and x-ray facilities. Lectures, presented by
researchers from academia, industry, and national laboratories, will include
basic tutorials on the principles of scattering theory and the characteristics
of the sources, as well as seminars on the application of scattering methods to
a variety of scientific subjects. Students will conduct four short experiments
at Argonne's Advanced Photon Source (APS) and <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Oak Ridge</st1:place></st1:City>'s Spallation Neutron Source (SNS)
and High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) facilities to provide hands-on experience
for using neutron and synchrotron sources. Additional details about the School,
along with electronic registration, are provided through the Argonne Division
