Welcome to the website of the
Société Française de la Neutronique
Welcome to the website of the
Société Française de la Neutronique
The SFN is a learned society created in 1994 to promote neutronics within the scientific community and to federate the French neutronics community, covering a wide range of scientific fields (physics, chemistry, biology, etc.).
Every year, it organises the Journées de la Diffusion Neutronique, during which it awards its thesis prize to a young scientist.
Thematic Schools are held regularly, with courses published and freely accessible.
Finally, this website is at your disposal: it provides a forum for exchanging information about neutronics. Don’t hesitate to contact us and provide new ideas of contents!
SFN documents
- Please find here the report of the round table on the future of French neutron scattering held during JDN2024.
- A round table on HiCANS and the ICONE project was held during the JDN2023. Please find here a summary of the discussion.
- The SFN calls for an ambitious French policy for neutron scattering. A letter has been sent in 2023 to the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, the CNRS and the CEA.
Bulletin SFN-2FDN
The latest SFN-2FDN monthly newsletter is now available!
This newsletter is dedicated to the community of neutron scattering users. It is co-edited by 2FDN and SFN.
