<br>
This WE-Heraeus-Seminar focuses on the technique of magnetic small
angle neutron scattering, which is one of the most important methods
for magnetic microstructure determination in condensed-matter
physics and materials science. Currently, the magnetic SANS
community can be roughly subdivided into two larger groups: the
research of one group is anchored in the domain of condensed-matter
physics with a focus on fundamental questions such as skyrmion
crystals and topological spin structures, complex long-range-ordered
spin structures, and vortex lattices in superconductors, while the
second group of scientists employs the magnetic SANS method for
scrutinizing nanoscale magnetism in terms of a micromagnetic
continuum description; materials classes which are studied are e.g.
permanent magnets, magnetic steels, nanoparticles and ferrofluids,
or complex alloys. <br>
It is one of the central aims of this Heraeus seminar to bring both
groups of researchers closer together by providing a stage for
intra- and interdisciplinary scientific exchange. Besides, in view
of the upcoming European Spallation Source, a further focus will be
on future challenges related to neutron instrumentation, sample
environment, and neutron scattering data analysis.<br>
<br>
Due to the unpredictable development of the corona pandemic, we are
currently planning to hold a <u>hybrid seminar</u> at the
Evangelische Akademie Tutzing, Germany.<br>
<br>
Application deadline: <u>28 March 2021</u><br>
<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
