Modern neutron sources sit next to synchrotron x-rays sources!

The closing address to ICNS was given by a lyrical Sunil Sinha, in great form. Sunil reviewed the impact of neutron scattering methods on major fields of science, stressing the uniqueness of neutrons but also the complementarity with synchrotron x-rays. He said, and he was absolutely right, that modern neutron sources sit next to synchrotron x-rays sources. This is why ESS will be built next to the MAX IV synchrotron!
