NIWeek 2012 Big Physics and Science Summit
Keynote presented by Kevin Jones, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Abstract:
The physical properties of the neutron make it a unique and flexible tool for the study of diverse materials, chemical processes, and engineering systems. At this session, examine the technology and engineering associated with production pulsed spallation neutrons and their useful characteristics. Then learn how those neutrons are used to explore new frontiers in materials, engineering, and fundamental physics. These new frontiers are driving significant investment in new pulsed neutron sources around the world.
