ROADSHOW 2013
Le infrastrutture ESRF, ILL e ISIS per le aree di ricerca del CNR
http://www.research-infrastructures.it
A seguito del convegno sulle Infrastrutture europee dello scorso febbraio al CNR, ROADSHOWS 2013 ha lo scopo di promuovere le opportunità di ricerca e le modalità di accesso presso le Infrastrutture di Ricerca (IR) di Luce di Sincrotrone ESRF (Grenoble, F) e di Neutroni, ILL (Grenoble, F) e ISIS (Oxfordshire, UK). L’iniziativa nasce su idea del Presidente del CNR a seguito delle sue visite presso le sopraindicate infrastrutture:“[...] ho rafforzato ancor di più la convinzione che si debba consolidare la partecipazione italiana alle grandi infrastrutture di ricerca, partecipazione che permette ai nostri ricercatori di continuare a produrre scienza ad alto livello, di svolgere ricerche di frontiera e sviluppare metodologie di avanguardia per una vasta gamma di potenziali applicazioni.Tenuto conto che la partecipazione del CNR è suscettibile di un consistente miglioramento, è stata concordata con il management dei laboratori europei di Grenoble e di Oxfordshire un’azione di ‘sensibilizzazione’ presso tutti i nostri Dipartimenti sulle potenzialità di queste grandi infrastrutture di ricerca nei settori quali ambiente, energia, materiali, salute, beni culturali.”
International Neutron Scattering Instrumentation School (INSIS)
About the School
| INSIS is a new international school aimed at providing a comprehensive training in the fundamental concepts of instrumentation for neutron scattering experiments.The INSIS school is aimed at PhD students, post-doctoral researchers and early career scientists who wish to be involved in the design and development of novel instrumentation and components at present and future neutron sources. The course will provide basic and advanced lectures, simulation activities and tutorials about neutron scattering instrumentation.The school is intended as a ‘pipeline’ initiative, to promote increased activities in instrument design and develop the next generation of instrument designers with a target audience of about 25 students. The school is composed of two distinct parts: the first week (15th – 20th July) will introduce basic instrumentation and components used in neutron scattering research; and the second week (22nd – 27th July) will provide a more in depth insight into neutron detector technologies. Students may participate in the first week, the second week, or both.This school is partially supported by the CNR, INFN, University of Rome Tor Vergata, University of Milano Bicocca, U.S. National Science Foundation and the European NMI3.web site: http://neutrons.ornl.gov/conf/insis2012/Application Deadline: June 7, 2012 A piano concert by Maestro Adolfo Barabino will be held at Pontificio Istituto di Musica Sacra at Sunday, July 15th at 19:30. |

NAST researchers awarded the American Ceramic Society ACerS Ross Coffin Purdy Award 2011
NAST researchers awarded the American Ceramic Society ACerS Ross Coffin Purdy Award 2011
NAST Members Alessandra D’Epifanio, Elisabetta Di Bartolomeo, Silvia Licoccia, Giuseppe Balestrino and Enrico Traversa, together with colleagues Daniele Pergolesi and Emiliana Fabbri (National Institute for Material Science, Japan), and Antonello Tebano and Simone Sanna (Department of Mechanical Engineering) have been given the award because of their paper “High proton conduction in grain-boundary-free yttrium-doped barium zirconate films grown by pulsed laser deposition” that was published in Nature Materials in 2010. The Purdy award is given to the author or authors who made the most valuable contribution to ceramic technical literature during the calendar year prior to the selection.
