Dear friends of the NEUWAVE workshop,

As the year is coming to an end, and following the tremendous success of NEUWAVE-11 in Tokyo, we are excited to announce the upcoming NEUWAVE-12 workshop to be held in 2024.

Feel free to forward this information to anyone in your organization – and outside!- that might be interested in joining. More information will come in due time, we hope to see you soon in Lund for an exciting workshop and, meanwhile, we wish you all a very happy holiday season!

Dear friends and colleagues,

we inform that we are organizing an informal workshop dedicated to the use of neutron techniques applied to the characterization of metal samples produced using additive manufacturing methods.

Our teams at CNR-IFAC and INFN-LNGS are involved in the development of a national project (called NAMOR) dedicated to the use of neutron imaging (both neutron tomography and Bragg Edge Neutron Transmission) and neutron diffraction for the analysis of morphological and microstructural characteristics of metal AM samples, produced according to different manufacturing strategies and materials.

Since we observed a general interest in the topic, we decided to organize a 3 day workshop in the days 21-23 May 2024 at the INFN - Laboratori Nazionali Gran Sasso site (fairly close to Roma, Abruzzo, Italy) in order to gather together all people interested and active in such a topic and discuss about current research, results, method development and future plans.

Details of the program and participation + abstract submission modules can be found at the dedicated webpage: https://namor.sites.lngs.infn.it/

registration link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd_DwCFMasuPQkSIyWY7IeAviLUYBheyGCnuBBflaPibuvtCQ/viewform

We kindly ask you to spread around the link to colleagues who might be interested in participating.

There is no participation fee and, due to the informal approach we intend to pursue and the goal to start a mutual collaboration network, we decided to not foresee the possibility for remote connection participation (we evaluated that hybrid form doesn't work to ease mutual communication).

If you have any question or curiosity you can contact us at f.grazzi@ifac.cnr.it donato.orlandi@lngs.infn.it daniele.cortis@lngs.infn.it

Thank you and hope to see you soon,

Francesco, Donato and Daniele

The 12^th World Conference on Neutron Radiography (WCNR-12) is hosted by the Idaho National Laboratory at Hilton Garden Inn, Idaho Falls, ID, USA, on June 2, 2024 – June 7, 2024. The Call for Abstracts is opened. For more information visit the WCNR-12 website. 

For all ISNR-members who have submitted their updated data and an initial password for accessing the pages for ISNR members only:

If your initial password had less then 12 characters please double or triple it (without additional blanks) until it has at least 12 characters (e.g. if your initial password is "ABC_9" (i.e. 5 characters) then use "ABC_9ABC_9ABC_9" (i.e. three times your initial password, now having 15 characters). 

We are still working on implementing some missing topics (e. g. work of the Task Groups of ISNR) as well as on the general design.

In case you identify errors in the implemented contents, please inform on this by e-mail to secretary@isnr.de.
