The 13th International Conference on Muon Spin Rotation, Relaxation and Resonance

Europe/Zurich
Elvezio Morenzoni (PSI)
Description

The 13th International Conference on Muon Spin Rotation, Relaxation and Resonance (μSR2014) will be held in Grindelwald, Switzerland, from Monday, June 1st to Friday, June 6th, 2014. It is organized by the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI), the University of Zurich and the University of Fribourg.

The conference provides a forum to researchers from around the world with interests in the applications of μSR to study a wide range of topics in condensed matter physics, materials and molecular sciences, inorganic and organic chemistry and biology.

The Conference will consist of invited and contributed talks and poster sessions.

μSR2014 continues the series of international conferences on Muon Spin Rotation/ Relaxation usually held every three years. The previous conferences were held in Cancun, Mexico (2011), Tsukuba, Japan (2008), Oxford, UK (2005), Williamsburg, USA (2002), Les Diablerets, Switzerland (1999),  Nikko, Japan (1996), Maui, USA (1993), Oxford, UK (1990), Uppsala, Sweden (1986), Shimoda, Japan (1983), Vancouver, Canada (1980), and Rorschach, Switzerland (1978).
