QENS/WINS 2022

The next joint celebration QENS/WINS will constitute the 14th Edition of the QENS series and the 9th of the WINS workshops. The face-to-face Conference (QENS/WINS2022) will take place in San Sebastian, 23-27 May 2022. QENS focusses on the discussion and exchange of scientific ideas related to the investigation of atomic and molecular motions, while WINS deals with instrumental aspects of quasielastic and inelastic neutron scattering techniques. Though originally QENS and WINS were held in an independent way, the added value of their joint celebration has been put forward since it enhances their scope and impact on the scientific community related with the quasielastic and inelastic neutron scattering techniques. Young scientists involved in neutron scattering investigations can particularly profit from this joint event (and are especially welcome).
