Strategy Meeting for High Pressure Spallation Science

6 Jul 2017, 09:00 → 7 Jul 2017, 17:00 Europe/Stockholm

Tänkartanken (ESS HQ, Lund)

Haberl Bianca (SNS), John Paul Attfield (University of Edinburgh), Malcolm Guthrie (European Spallation Source ERIC), Stefan Klotz (Université P&M Curie), Ulrich Häussermann (Stockholm University)

High-pressure neutron science is evolving rapidly in response to developments both of neutron sources and ancillary technologies such as pressure cell design and CVD diamond production. The next 10 years is a critical period that will see substantial expansion of technical capabilities enabling new science. Of particular relevance is identifying high-profile early science at the ESS, and forming a strategy to realise the requisite advances in sample-environments needed to achieve this.
