AONSA - Asia-Oceania Neutron Scattering Association

The Asia-Oceania Neutron Scattering Association (AONSA) has now formed. It is an affiliation of neutron scattering societies and committees which directly represent users in the Asia-Oceania Region. The overriding purposes of the Association are to provide a platform for discussion and a focus for action in neutron scattering and related topics in the Asia-Oceania Region, with members from the ANBUG committee representing Australia. The 1st AONSA neutron school was held at KAIST, Korea in August 2008.
