A review article published this week marks a major milestone in the development of novel detector technologies that will enable scientific research at ESS.
On July 5, the ILOs representing France at several Big Science organisations met in Paris for a day of discussions and best practice on how to create a more collaborative network.
As part of its contribution toward the delivery of the European Spallation Source, the EU sponsored a three-year, €20 million project through its Horizon2020 framework programme. As the project winds down, the 18 BrightnESS partners took the opportunity to highlight the substantial impact their work has had not only in delivering ESS but on European neutron science generally.
On 15 – 17 May, the International Workshop on Position Sensitive Neutron Detectors PSND2018) took place in Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany, with support from BrightnESS.
On 6-11 May, Budapest Neutron Centre (consortium of MTA Wigner Research Centre for Physics and MTA Centre for Energy Research) hosted the 12th Central European neutron school. The objective of the school was to provide an insight into the different neutron techniques: neutron scattering, imaging and elemental analysis.
The Council of the European Spallation Source has ratified the accession of Spain as a founding member with full rights in the consortium participated by 15 members and observer’s European countries, committed in the construction of the most important scientific-technological infrastructure that Europe will have in the next decade.
Science is an important field for women, with many opportunities. Therefore, on 26 April 2018, MTA EK joined the Hungarian NATE (Women in Science) in celebrating International Girls in Science Day.
