Scope of school
Various technical problems of neutron holography are to be studied: optimization of experimental setups for holography starting from standard instruments such as diffractometers or triple axis spectrometers will be an important topic.

It shall be analyzed in which fields future applications of neutron holography may typically arise. Among those there are substances containing substantial amounts of hydrogen (hydrogen storage materials, organic substances, minerals of geological importance) as well as novel magnetic materials and intermetallic compounds.
