61. Applied and Fundamental Research at the High Flux Neutron Source FRM II/MLZ

Dr Martin Meven (RWTH Aachen)

5/26/15, 8:45 PM

The Heinz-Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ) is a leading centre for state-of-the-art research with neutrons and positrons offering a large variety of high-performant neutron scattering instruments to perform studies on many hot topics in physics, chemistry, biology, earth sciences, engineering or material sciences. The MLZ represents the cooperation between the Technische Universität München (TUM)...

62. Neutron scattering possibilities at SINQ

Dr Matthias Frontzek (Paul Scherrer Institut, Laboratory for Neutron Scattering)

5/28/15, 8:40 PM

The Swiss spallation neutron source, inaugurated in 1996 and situated at the Paul Scherrer Institut in Villigen is the center of the Swiss neutron research community. The source is operated continuously and its neutron flux is comparable to other national operated neutron scattering facilities as for instance LLB in Saclay, France or HZB in Berlin, Germany. The SINQ hall is the home of 18...

57. Revealing plasmonic-induced electron transfer with high resolution x-ray absorption spectroscopy in TiO2/Au nanocomposites

Dr Lucia Amidani (ESRF)

5/29/15, 8:45 AM

With the increasing demand for energy faced by modern society, the efficient exploitation of clean energy sources is fundamental. In this scenario TiO2 represent a particularly interesting material: it is cheap and abundant and at most importantly it catalyzes for chemical reactions, from water splitting to waste water treatment, when illuminated with UV light. Research is thus looking for...

39. Neutron imaging facilities and applications at the PSI spallation neutron source SINQ

Mr Peter Vontobel (Paul Scherrer Institut)

5/29/15, 9:45 AM

Neutron imaging, also known as neutron radiography, is a mainly non-diffractive application of highly collimated, large area, neutron beams for direct projection imaging with cold and thermal neutrons. Due to its direct (real space) imaging capabilities it is complementary to neutron scattering methods and is applied to a wide range of non-destructive testing problems arising in research and...
