ESS Get Involved! Patrik Carlsson Allen Weeks
What is ESS? A European facility for materials research Lund 2025: The European Spallation Source (5 MW) One of Europe's largest planned research infrastructures 17 European partner countries Will bring new insights to the grand challenges of science and innovation 2014: Start of construction phase for the world's most powerful proton accelerator 2020: Providing the world's most advanced tools for studying materials with neutrons
Why Neutrons? Research with neutrons gives us knowledge that improves our everyday lives, our health and our environment. Neutrons provide unique and important information. Neutrons show where atoms are and what they do.
