NEWS FOR NCNR USERS
Clean & Run - The NCNR has established a detailed schedule for returning to scientific operations
CHRNS Assistance with User Experiments at Other Neutron Facilities - During the outage, CHRNS staff are available to assist users in person with experiments performed at other national and international neutron facilities. This opportunity, which is supported by CHRNS, is especially beneficial for user experiments that require specialized equipment available only at the NCNR. Interested users should reach out to appropriate CHRNS staff or to ronald.jones [at] nist.gov (Ron Jones) (Condensed Matter Science Group Leader).
30th CHRNS Summer School on Neutron Scattering - An in-person school will be hosted at the NCNR from July 22-26, 2024, and focus on methods and applications of small angle neutron scattering and neutron reflectometry.
New Neutron Spin Echo for the Nation - Funded by NSF, NIST and the Center for Neutron Science at the University of Delaware are building a new spin echo spectrometer
CHRNS Non-Equilibrium Structure of Materials Initiative - CHRNS is supplying advanced neutron capabilities to characterize materials out of equilibrium
