Dates: September 21 to 25, 2015
Location: Ammersbek (near Hamburg) and at GEMS/DESY in Hamburg
Website: http://www.hzg.de/ms/summerschool/
Registration deadline: 24 June 2015

The Summer School will provide a systematic overview of the application of neutrons and synchrotron radiation to the structural analysis of engineering materials. Students and young scientists from research and industry from all of Europe interested in this field are welcome to participate.

The school will take place from September 21 to 25, 2015 in Ammersbek (near Hamburg) and at GEMS/DESY in Hamburg. The focus of the practical training will be on synchrotron experiments. Neutron data analysis will also be practised. Therefore the participants will spend two days doing experiments at GEMS/DESY.

Financial Support

The Summer School is significantly funded by German and Swedish authorities for their respective students. Therefore, the participation fee amounts to 50€. Students from other European countries can request reimbursement of their travel expenses from a NMI3 grant .

The fee includes accommodation and food for the duration of the school as well as the book “Neutrons and Synchrotron Radiation in Engineering Materials Science” which has resulted from previous summer schools with the same title.
