Welcome to the website of the
Société Française de la Neutronique

The SFN is a learned society created in 1994 to promote neutronics within the scientific community and to federate the French neutronics community, covering a wide range of scientific fields (physics, chemistry, biology, etc.).

Every year, it organises the Journées de la Diffusion Neutronique, during which it awards its thesis prize to a young scientist.

Thematic Schools are held regularly, with courses published and freely accessible.

Finally, this website is at your disposal: it provides a forum for exchanging information about neutronics. Don’t hesitate to contact us and provide new ideas of contents!

SFN documents

The SFN has drawn up a text calling for an ambitious French policy for neutron scattering. This text has been sent in 2023 to the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, the CNRS and the CEA.

A ‘table ronde’ about HiCANS and the ICONE project took place during the JDN2023 in Erquy.

Bulletin SFN-2FDN

The latest SFN-2FDN monthly newsletter is now available!

This newsletter is dedicated to the community of neutron scattering users. It is co-edited by 2FDN and SFN.
