These last decades, scientists in Materials science have progressively gained easier and easier access to an increasing number of large scale facilities in Europe (ILL, LLB, DESY, ESRF, SOLEIL, Diamond, GANIL, LNCMI…) so that these outstanding installations are now considered as unavoidable standard tools for most studies of materials.
These include the basic problem of atomic structure determination using sophisticated diffraction techniques, single crystal and powder diffractions, anomalous scattering, EXAFS, standing waves and absorption spectroscopy.
Local chemical analyses are now very accurate with X-ray absorption (XAS), and X-ray emission spectroscopies (XES) for chemical characterization including low Z materials. High flux and high prenetration have also permitted the X-ray imaging techniques to be developped in order to reveal the internal structure of engineering materials (X ray radio and tomography).
This new (3D) way of imaging the structure are today used routinely at a very high temporal (fast in situ experiments) and spatial resolution (nano imaging). Also, because of the very intense incident beams, time resolved studies of phase transformations down to millisecond resolution are now possible that help deciphering the mechanisms at atomic scale. Electronic structures and studies on magnetism have considerably beneficed on magnetic scattering and nuclear resonant scattering techniques with dynamics in the nanosecond to microsecond time regime. Also, new original materials are now available that are prepared under extreme conditions like intense magnetic fields or high pressure and/or high temperature.
Finally, structural dynamics and inelastic properties are studied by measuring collective excitations in disordered materials and phonon spectra in crystals through inelastic X-ray and nuclear (resonance) scattering, thus allowing the study of atomic diffusion and rotational motions.
The purpose of the symposium is to gather materials scientists specialists of these large installations in order to sketch the state of the art with some of the most significant results in materials science, and discuss the new possibities of investigations offered by the last generations of these installations.
