This workshop brings together experts from different fields with
the intent in reviewing and discussing the development of a
theoretical and computational modeling infrastructure that is
relevant to the diverse scientific community that will use ESS.
Our aim is to use this workshop as an input to our planning so
that once the first experiments are made, ESS and its users are
prepared to harness the most out of the scientific potential of
their data.
<br>
<br>
The high intensity spallation neutron source ESS is well set to
start construction in 2013 and to deliver first neutrons in 2019.
After about 20 years of discussions, the determination of the user
community and those working in national and international neutron
laboratories in Europe is going to turn the project into reality!
<br>
<br>
Now it is time to start getting ready to harness the scientific
potential of ESS. In recent years it has been realized that the
combination of simulations of physical systems together with
neutron scattering data, is an immensely powerful in various key
areas of modern research; the glass transition in soft matter, the
relaxation phenomena in biomolecules, high temperature
superconductivity, chemistry of concrete, protein dynamics and
function, to name a few examples.
<br>
<br>
We hope to come out of the meeting with innovative and
enthusiastic ideas leading to new and successful collaborations.
