NCNR Expansion Initiative Workshop

held July 17-19, 2006, Bethesda, MD

125 scientists from academia, industry, and government, covering a broad array of disciplines, met to provide written suggestions to NCNR management regarding the details of the expansion project. The outcome was very useful, with many good ideas emerging about new and improved neutron instrumentation, based on projected scientific and measurement needs. The participants represented experts from a broad research community and were broken into working groups listed below. A substantial report resulting from the workshop is being used to guide planning for the enhanced facility. To see the report's Executive Summary, click on one of the following links.
