Conference Themes

The relationship between the structure, dynamics and properties of matter is key to many fields of scientific research. This includes areas such as the kinetic processes controlling intra-cellular trafficking and signaling in our bodies, as well as how crystal structure affects the lifetime of batteries and catalysts.

Researchers are studying functional structures in real time under working conditions. The toolbox for in situ time- and space-resolved characterisation is constantly growing. Advances include new, brighter synchrotron and neutron sources and free electron lasers for time-resolved scattering studies with sub -millisecond resolution. Improved computational methods can now simulate processes with increasing levels of molecular detail.

TWF 2018

TWF 2018 workshop will focus on time-resolved synchrotron and neutron techniques for a range of scientific applications, including:

  • Catalysis
  • Materials synthesis
  • Soft Matter
  • Biological Materials
  • Energy Materials
  • Chemical Dynamics
  • Functional Inorganic Materials

The event will provide a forum for leading specialists, users and scientists to share their views and discuss challenges in this fast-growing field.

Programme

There will be four sessions with plenary lectures, talks by invited speakers and presentations from selected delegates. You are invited to submit abstracts for oral presentations or posters.
