Torna a Training on Neutron Techniques

Topics

General lessons will be held each morning, while the afternoons will be mainly devoted to applicative seminars and tutorial activities with small groups of students.

Fundamentals

  • Neutron physics.
  • Neutron scattering theory.
  • Neutron sources, beam conditioning and
    instrumentation.

Neutron diffraction

  • Crystallography.
  • Powders/single crystals/disordered systems.
  • Magnetic structures.
  • Applications in engineering, energy materials, cultural heritage.

Neutron Imaging

  • Basic principles.
  • Neutron tomography and data reconstruction.
  • Advanced techniques: Bragg edge analysis,
    phase contrast, grating interferometry,
    resonance imaging, etc.
