On Thursday, June 11, LENS will launch its new live webinar series with a talk by Marc Jamin from the University Grenoble-Alpes, who will speak about the latest Covid-19 research and how we use neutrons to combat viruses.

The Canadian Neutron Initiative has published their vision for Neutrons Canada resulting from January's roundtable event in the Canadian capitol, which included European perspectives from ESS, ILL and LENS.

Soft matter researchers using the UK's ISIS Neutron & Muon Source relied on the first deuterated compound synthesised by DEMAX at ESS.

In a new essay in the CERN Courier, LENS Chair Helmut Schober highlights the enormous potential for growth in Europe’s world-leading neutron science ecosystem.

A dozen ESS ILOs met with members of the ESS strategy and procurement teams over videoconference for the 14th ESS ILO Network meeting.

As with HIV before it, Europe’s advanced neutron sources will make an essential contribution to the fight against the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

INFN-LNS served as host for a two-day workshop for the ILOs and In-Kind Field Coordinators of ESS. BrightnESS²’s innovation and industry work package sponsored the February 19-20 event as part of the project’s mandate to expand and strengthen the ESS innovation framework.

Register now for the February 11th LENS Colloquium: How neutrons contribute to mission-based research. The event will feature neutron scientists, LENS facility directors and EC decision-makers in an intimate forum intended to facilitate the exchange of up-to-date knowledge and activities.

Three neutron science research reactors in Europe have ceased operations in 2019. The League of advanced European Neutron Sources, LENS, and the European Neutron Scattering Association, ENSA, warn of a “neutron gap” that could impact scientific research across multiple fields in physics, materials science, chemistry, biology, medical science and engineering. Together, LENS and ENSA are working on a new vision to maintain Europe’s leading position in neutron science. 

The main goal of this seminar is to increase the knowledge, visibility and opportunities of neutrons to the Israeli academic community, and promote innovative multidisciplinary research with neutrons.
