College 4 deals with magnetic excitations.

The main instruments used for College 4 proposals are:

• Triple-axis spectrometers: LAGRANGE (IN1), IN3, IN8, IN12 (CRG), ThALES, IN20, IN22 (CRG)
• Time-of-flight spectrometers: IN4C, IN5, IN6-Sharp (CRG) , D7, BRISP (CRG)
• High-Resolution Backscattering Spectrometers: IN13 (CRG), IN16B
• Spin-Echo Spectrometers: IN11, IN15, WASP (waiting for commissioning)

If you want to come to the ILL and give a seminar, please apply to the college secretary.
Travel and expenses for your stay may be reimbursed. Do not hesitate  if you are coming for an experiment in Grenoble (ILL, ESRF, EMBL, CEA, CNRS, ...).
