Two major, national facilities will close by 2020 while substantial investment in a new European facility, ESS, will deliver transformative capabilities and extend the technique to new domains by the middle of the next decade. After the Millennium upgrade programmes, ILL is currently executing phase one of the Endurance programme to further enhance its instruments and infrastructure and is now preparing a second, more extensive phase of Endurance that will be the basis of future operations well beyond 2023. The future of neutron scattering is bright, but both the landscape of facilities and the community of users must take a proactive and strategic approach to navigating and managing these changes in a holistic way, in order to ensure the sustainability and vitality of this important research technique. ILL and ESS therefore feel that it is timely to review recent achievements and the current status and, above all, look forward to new scientific opportunities with neutrons for the next decade. The User Meeting programme foresees ten keynote speakers on future directions in neutron science, as well as reports on recent achievements and ongoing work at ILL and ESS. There will be focus sessions in the User Meeting to highlight several key techniques while satellite workshop events, in parallel with the User Meeting, will allow participants to delve deeper into specific areas of neutron science. https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=873 https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=873 04.6.2019 - 05. 6.2019 - The SNSHFIR User Group SHUG is pleased to announce the 2019 Neutron Scattering User Meeting to be held on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 45, 2019, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory ORNL, with topical workshops and tutorials held on Monday, June 3, and Thursday, June 6. The meeting theme is Neutron Sciences: Past, Present and Future. The meeting will highlight the research achievements of SNS and HFIR users, staff and the broader neutron scattering communities. In addition, the presentations and discussions will explore the future of neutron scattering in perspective of current and past developments.There will be a Welcome reception at the Shull Wollan Center at 5:30 p.m. EDT on June 3. All are welcome to attend. Registration will open February 20 and is required by May 10. https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=925 https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=925 04.12.2019 - 06. 12.2019 - The Neutron and Young Scientists Day will take place at Berlin-Wannsee on Wednesday, December 4.The Young Scientists and Synchrotron Day as well as the Science Day will take place at Berlin-Adlershof on Thursday, December 5 and Friday, December 6. https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=943 https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=943 10.12.2019 - 11. 12.2019 - We look forward to meet all MLZ users and those who like to become our users here at Garching for the next User Meeting What do we plan more or less Starting around lunchtime, the first afternoon will be dedicated to specialised workshops organised by our Science Groups, while the second day will be divided between plenary talks in the morning and a poster session in the afternoon.Abstracts until September 15thRegistration until October 25th https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=941 https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=941 23.9.2020 - 25. 9.2020 - UPDATE - THE ESS ILL USER MEETING WILL BE HELD AS A DIGITAL CONFERENCE DUE TO THE COVID 19 PANDEMIC.In 2018, ILL and ESS hosted their first European Users Meeting in Grenoble. This successful meeting provided the opportunity to review the achievements of the user community, present the current status of ILL and ESS and, most importantly, to look forward to the scientific opportunities ahead for neutron science.The future of neutron scattering is bright, and requires both facilities and the user community to take a proactive and strategic approach to navigating and managing the changing availability of neutron instruments in a holistic way, in order to ensure the sustainability and vitality of this important research technique.As Europes two neutron source facilities, we would therefore like to invite you to the ESS and ILL European Users Meeting. We shall have a number of plenary speakers discussing using neutron science to meet societal challenges, as well as reports on recent achievements and ongoing work at ESS and ILL. There will also be focused parallel sessions, which will allow participants to delve deeper into specific areas of neutron science. https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=977 https://neutronsources.org/index.php?article_id=158&eventid=977 23.9.2020 - Dear colleagues, more than 770 colleagues have registered for the ESS and ILL European User Meeting taking place this week Those who have registered should just have received a zoom link for the meeting.Even if you have not registered, you are very welcome to follow the live stream of the event: Session 1 Wednesday Sept 23, 2020 09:30 12:00: https:youtu.bei5SLI1rWmqASession 2 Wednesday Sept 23, 2020 14:00 16:15: https:youtu.beF99p_eju5pQSession 3 Thursday Sept 24, 2020 09:30 12:00: https:youtu.be3Ry1NPS3QZYSession 4 Thursday Sept 24, 2020 14:00 16:15: https:youtu.beCm6wL9he7EUSession QA Friday Sept 25, 2020 9:30 11:14: https:youtu.beLFzEFg7MdRI Please visit our webpage http:www.neutrons4europe.com for the latest schedule as well as brief abstracts.
