Neutrons are a unique probe to study the structure and dynamics of matter. The advent of High Current Accelerator-driven Neutron Sources (HiCANS) will make access to  neutrons easier than today’s sources. With HiCANS, large universities and research centres will be able to host their own neutron sources, gaining independence from large facilities using nuclear reactors or spallation sources.

IMoH Conference 2026 will analyse the following main topics:

Day 1. Recent developments and remaining challenges on HiCANS

Day 2. Neutron Science in the context of the current scientific challenges

Day 3. Neutron science in the context of the current industrial and technological challenges
