MDANSE is a three-day, hands-on workshop where participants work through both the conceptual foundations and practical workflows behind calculating dynamical and vibrational properties of materials. Density functional theory, lattice dynamics, and classical molecular dynamics will be used to generate realistic simulated data, including inelastic and quasi-elastic neutron scattering spectra. The computational toolkit ASE is also introduced as part of the curriculum.

Europe’s two neutron facilities, European Spallation Source ERIC and ILL - Institut Laue Langevin, invite the neutron scattering community to the joint ESS-ILL User Meeting. Day 1 - European Spallati…

We are pleased to announce that pre-registations for the SFN school on TOF spectroscopy are now open. The school will take place 7-10th of December 2026 at the Institut Laue-Langevin in Grenoble. The objective of this school is to accompany the French neutron community towards the use of Time-of-flight spectrometers in spallation sources, and especially in preparation for the use of the upcoming instruments suite at the ESS. This school is addressed to participants (permanent and non-permanent) who are already familiar with neutron spectroscopy. To ensure a high pedagogical quality and interactions during tutorials and practicals, attendance will be limited to 30 participants. Selection will be based on a short CV and brief statement of motivation. Priority will be given to participants from the French community but registration may be extended to international users depending on attendance. Please submit your application before October 16th 2026. Full details, including important dates, registration information and program are available on the website (which is now working) : https://workshops.ill.fr/e/SFN2ESS For any questions, please contact us at : SFN2ESS@ill.fr Looking forward to seeing you in Grenoble, The organizing committee on behalf of the SFN Victor Balédent Dalila Bounoua Stéphane Longeville Stéphane Rols Manila Songvilay
