IKON10 - The Tenth In-Kind Contributions Meeting for Neutron Science for ESS

16 Feb 2016, 09:00 → 18 Feb 2016, 17:00 Europe/Stockholm

Lindner Congress Hotel Düsseldorf

The IKON meetings are a regular forum centered around the design and construction of the ESS neutron instruments and their associated support facilities.
 
By bringing together current and future partners, the meetings aim to provide an overview on the various activities and fertilise exchange that is vital to our success.
Scientists from ESS member countries currently not engaged in in-kind activities but interested in joining are encouraged to participate.
