QENS/WINS 2020 San Sebastian

The QENS/WINS 2020 Conference will be celebrated in San Sebastian (Spain), from June 8 to June 12, 2020

This event will constitute the 14th Edition of the QENS series and the 9th of the WINS workshops.

The main purpose of QENS 2020 is to cover the broad spectrum of scientific activities related with the investigation of dynamical processes in different systems using quasi-elastic neutron scattering techniques. QENS 2020 will offer a platform for discussion and exchange of scientific ideas among the experts in this field, and a general overview to newcomers about the capabilities of QENS in exploring atomic and molecular motions and relaxation processes of novel materials, soft matter and biological systems. As a novelty, this QENS Edition will explore and exploit the potential synergies between different methods (including experimental techniques and simulations), in order to face diverse scientific challenges emerging in different research fields.

WINS 2020 will cover innovative aspects of neutron instrument design. Progresses on new spectrometer projects will be presented. As in previous editions, the theme of “New idea, New concept, New design, New instrumentation for New sciences” will be followed. New developments in the application of polarization analysis, magnetic field, pressure, or improvements in sample environments for soft matter systems will be covered. Software for data acquisition, analysis and instrument simulation will be also part of the program. In analogy with the spirit of QENS 2020, the synergy with complementary methods –in this case mainly with advanced simulations and extensive Monte Carlo simulations—will be emphasized.
