we have the pleasure to announce the

TRIGA MAINZ Lab Course on Reactor Operation and Nuclear Chemistry

Within the ARIEL project (H2020 ARIEL EU project (ariel-h2020.eu) the Johannes Gutenberg University (JGU) in Mainz will organize a Lab Course in Reactor Operation and Nuclear Chemistry to be held November 19-24, 2023 at the TRIGA Mainz research reactor of JGU. The course is open for advanced Master students. PhD students and Post-Docs working in the the field of chemistry, physics, nuclear engineering and related areas.The participants will learn how to operate the TRIGA Mainz research reactor in steady state as well as in pulsed mode and study the effect Cd-samples on the reactivity. In short term irradiation of an Os-sample and subsequent gammaspectroscopical analysis low lying rotational bands in Os-190m are studied. Furthermore ß-delayed neutron measurements using He-3 counting tubes are planned. For this, samples of U-235 and Th-232 are irradiated with and without Cd-shielding. In the Nuclear Chemistry part of the course the participants will repeat the classical experiment of Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann that led to the discovery of nuclear fission. The experimental programe will be accompanied by a series of lectures about the discovery of nuclear fission, applications of research reactors for science and industry and the operation and the special design features of TRIGA reactors. Furthermore, a lecture about the OKLO-reactor is planned.

The registration fee, travel and accommodation costs will be covered by the H2020 ARIEL Project (www.ariel-h2020.eu).

Registration is now open. Please register before September 15, 2023 @

We are pleased to inform you of the H2020-ARIEL Hands-on school on nuclear data from Research Reactors organized by the Centre for Energy Research & Institute of Nuclear Techniques, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, in Budapest, Hungary. Registration and a call for flash presentations are now open

Date: 25-29 September 2023 

Place: Budapest, Hungary

Registration closing on 30 August 2023

School information & registration are available at https://indico.cern.ch/event/1290109/

The school will demonstrate how reactor neutrons can be used to measure nuclear data for testing nuclear theories and for applications by ensuring the safe operation of nuclear reactors, producing radionuclides for medical purposes, analyzing the composition of materials, and understanding the synthesis of elements. The school is open for up to 24 participants. The target audience comprises young researchers, i.e. Master's students, Ph.D. students, and young postdocs. The selection of participants will be based on the "University learning and working history letter (CV)" and the "Motivation letter" to be filled in on the registration form. The expenses of the selected participants will be covered by the ARIEL project.

We are pleased to announce the H2020-ARIEL "HISPANOS Hands-On school on the production, detection and use of neutron beams" that will be held at the Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) in Seville, Spain. 

The school, organized by the Universidad de Sevilla in the framework of the H2020 ARIEL project (www.ariel-h2020.eu), aims at covering the experimental aspects related to the production, detection and use of neutron beams. To this purpose, the core of the school consists of  a series of experiments that will be carried out (September, 26th to 30th) at the HiSPANoS facility at the Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) in Seville, Spain

  • Introduction to detectors, acquisition systems and data analysis. 
  • Time-of-flight experiments using fast pulsed neutron beams and detectors providing pulse shape discrimination. 
  • Neutron capture MACS measurements by activation using an epithermal neutron beam. 
  • Neutron radiography with thermal neutrons via full moderation of an initially fast neutron beam. 
  • Study of the neutron distribution from fission with the miniBELEN detector. 

The experiments will be complemented with a selected number of lectures (Interaction of neutrons with matter, production of neutron beams and detection of neutrons) and seminars (The role of neutrons in astrophysics, nuclear technology, medicine and related experiments) that will be given online during two days (September, 21st and 22nd) in the week prior to the on-site experiments.  

The target audience comprises young researchers, which can be Master or PhD students as well as young postdocs; with the number of participants lmited to 24. The registration, travel and accommodation costs will be fully covered by the H2020 ARIEL project.

Announcement: "NUDATAPATH - 1st international on-line school on nuclear data: the path from the detector to the reactor calculation".

The school is organised by CIEMAT in the framework of the H2020 ARIEL project (www.ariel-h2020.eu).

The goal of the school is to provide to PhD students and young researchers a global overview of the complete nuclear data cycle, starting from the definition of the nuclear data, going through the definition of priorities and target accuracies, needs and conduction of new experiments, experimental data analysis and evaluation of the disseminated nuclear data, and ending with the validation with integral experiments. Experts in the different topics will guide the students through this exciting field through a series of theory seminars and hands-on lectures. In this way, students will learn the relevant theoretical concepts and be able run remote calculations such as sensitivity analyses, perform virtual cross section measurements and data analyses and data validations based on integral experiments.

The school is targeted to young researchers, including advanced Master or PhD students and also young postdocs. The selection of the 24 participants is the responsibility of the International Advisory Committee and will be based on the CV and the motivation letter to be attached to the registration form.

The school is on-line and thus a reasonable computer and a good internet connection will be required. The lectures will be taught in morning sessions over a period of 2 weeks, from the 21st of February till the 4th of March 2022.

The applications have to be done via the School web site https://agenda.ciemat.es/e/nudatapath and the deadline will be the 1st of November.
