Welcome to the website of the French Neutron Scattering Association
The French Neutron Scattering Association (SFN: Société Française de la Neutronique) is a scientific society that was founded in 1994 to promote neutrons in the scientific community and to federate the French community of neutron scatterers from all scientific fields. This site serves as a space for sharing information on neutron scattering, please send us your input!
The council of the SFN has written a letter to call for an ambitious strategy for the future of neutron scattering in France, supporting a sustainable ecosystem. This letter is addressed to the Minister, CNRS and CEA.
The ICONE project document (in french) for a new neutron source is available -here-.
The last Journées de la Diffusion Neutronique took place in Erquy on 9-12 October 2023.
The workshop HIRES (Synergies in High Resolution Spectroscopy) will take place at the ILL (Grenoble) on 12-15 December 2023.
The 2nd French-Swiss meeting SANS for Soft Matter will take place on 24-25 January 2024 at PSI (Villigen).
The French-Swedish school FASEM2024 will take place on 11-15 March 2024 in Lund.
HERCULES is a European course for PhD students and young researchers using Neutrons and Synchrotron Radiation for applications in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Hard & Soft Condensed Matter.
The next session will take place in March 2024.
The 16th Bombannes Summer School on "Scattering Methods Applied to Soft Condensed Matter" will be held on 4-11 June 2024 at the vacation centre "Les Bruyères" in Bombannes/Carcans-Maubuisson, France.
Le réseau MITI-CNRS RECIPROCS fédère depuis plus de 10 ans des chercheurs, ingénieurs et techniciens travaillant dans les domaines de la diffraction et diffusion. RECIPROCS vient de créer un forum SAXS/SANS, disponible ici.
Pour y accéder, vous devez au préalable adhérer à RECIPROCS (gratuit) par simple envoi d'un email à reciprocs-contact(at)services.cnrs.fr.
Dans le cadre de cette création de forum SAXS/SANS, le réseau organise cette année 2 demi-journées les 20-21 novembre 2023 au CRPP de Bordeaux. Programme et inscription accessible sous ce lien.
The Actualité Chimique (October 2022) contains a special issue on neutron scattering!
