International Collaboration on Advanced Neutron Sources

Home page: http://www.pns.anl.gov/related/icans.shtml

ICANS is an informal network of laboratories whose scientists are involved in developing pulsed neutron sources and accelerator based spallation neutron sources. The attention of the Collaboration is on the subjects of accelerator development, source (target) and moderator development, and neutron scattering instrumentation development.
