NDRA 2018 - Summer School on Neutron Detectors
Venue: Riva del Garda Centro Congressi - Parco Lido, 1, Riva del Garda - Trento
The aim of the school is to illustrate principles, methodologies and most recent applications of neutron detection technologies. In particular, the school will tackle various arguments that span from neutron interaction principles, materials for neutrons detectors, neutron sources, Monte Carlo simulation codes, up to applications with neutrons.
The school is addressed to PhD students, Post-Docs and young researchers with backgrounds in Engineering and Physics.
Kindly notice: On Sunday 1 July, at 18.00 a Welcolme cocktail is organized at the Centro Congressi Courtyard. In the meantime it will be possible to check in for the School
