"International Meeting for Construction and Utilization
of
We would like to inform you to have an International
Meeting for Construction and Utilization of
A single crystal diffractometer for structural biology
is under construction in order to promote industrial applications for neutron
beam in J-PARC. It will cover the majority of biologically important samples
from organic materials to macromolecules up to 135 angstrom in unit cell. This
machine is aiming to measure about one hundred macromolecular crystals of 2mm
cubic in volume per year.
In this meeting two main topics will be focused on; one is a data reduction
software which includes de-convolution of overlapped peaks due to the coupled
moderator, the other is the latest results, the trend and the perspective of
the neutron crystallography of macromolecules and organic compounds in the
world for potential users to have much interest of neutrons.
We also welcome your contributions such
as talks and posters related topics. In details, please visit our homepage
below or ask organizers.
