AXAA 2011
6-11 February 2011
Star City, Sydney, NSW

The AXAA 2011 Schools, Advanced Workshops, Conference and Exhibition provide opportunities for people working in the fields of laboratory x-ray fluorescence and x-ray diffraction, and in synchrotron, neutron and other complementary scattering techniques, to participate in discussions, knowledge-sharing and networking. The meeting will showcase recent scientific results and exciting new developments in related instrumentation, software, and techniques of analysis. It will focus on advances in industrial and fundamental research, particularly those achieved though new developments in techniques.

IXS2010
11-14 October 2010
World Trade Center, Grenoble, France

The 7th International Conference on Inelastic X-ray Scattering is hosted by ESRF and Politecnico di Milano. It will provide a forum for presentation of novel results, discussion of present and future trends, and interaction between participants who use different IXS techniques for a wide variety of applications. The conference will cover electronic resonant and non-resonant scattering (soft and hard x-rays), emission spectroscopy, meV-resolved atomic dynamics, nuclear inelastic scattering, Compton scattering, and thermal diffuse scattering.
