year’s neutron school at ANSTO will be held 16-21 August 2009 under the
auspices of the Asia-Oceania Neutron Scattering Association – AONSA, see <a

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>This
school provides training for newcomers to neutron scattering focussing on nanoscience.
We will not only have lectures, but also practical sessions with hands-on
experiments and data analysis. All neutron techniques (available at ANSTO) will
be covered in the school, i.e. powder diffraction, single-crystal diffraction,
strain scanning, small-angle scattering, reflectometry, and inelastic
scattering using three-axis spectrometers. The participation fee is 200AUD.</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Applicants
should submit an abstract outlining their scientific interests with relation to
neutron scattering. The template can be downloaded from <a
