The 2019 Walter Hälg Prize Winner: Kell Mortensen
Kell has been a world leader in the application of small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) to soft matter systems, in particular, polymers for three decades. He has contributed numerous fundamental advances to our understanding of the thermodynamics and dynamics of soft materials along with developing innovative in-situ techniques. Scientifically his work on Polymer I Block copolymer …

Hello Neutron Scatterers!
Welcome to the new website of the European Neutron Scattering Association (ENSA). We, ENSA, represent the scientists that use large-scale research infrastructures that operate a neutron source, like research reactors and accelerator-based spallation sources. Half of the worlds mass actually consists of neutrons. Half of you consists of neutrons. Neutrons bind together the protons in …
