Future plans for MEIS

Thursday 8 Dec 2011, 08:00 → 18:00 Europe/London

Shorehead Building SG/09 (Huddersfield University)

An open meeting for users (and potential users) of the Medium Energy Ion Scattering Facility, which is moving from STFC Daresbury Laboratory to Huddersfield University. The system will be available for research and commercial use: we hope that outside researchers will use it as fruitfully as they have done in the past, or even more so. This meeting is to set up a dialogue between the user community and the university to discuss how arrangements can be made, new facilities that might be useful, and basically everything that can be done to make the move a success.
The meeting is in the Shorehead Building of the Queensgate campus. For a map and directions see http://www2.hud.ac.uk/shared/shared_visitinguswg/Maps_PDFs/HUDcampus-map.pdf
