Programm

The scientific programme will consist of invited lectures as well as oral and poster contributions on the following topics:

  • Real-time small-angle scattering from soft and hard matter
  • Response to periodic  perturbation (stress, temperature, pressure, fields )
  • Field induced ordering and relaxation in magnetic  and ferroelectric systems
  • Dynamics in flux lines lattices
  • Mobility in colloidal systems, macromolecules, micelles
      • Prospects of time-resolved Reflectometry:surface reactions, electro-chemical processes, polymer wetting, diffusion processes
      • Present and future instrumentation on SANS and Reflectometry for dynamical studies in the time range from seconds to microseconds
      • Discussion of methods such as single-shot kinetics, stroboscopic techniques, TISANE , MIEZE and Larmor encoding
      • Special sample environments for kinetic and dynamic investigations
      • Complementary techniques probing dynamics and kinetic processes
