Abstract
In this webinar, we look into methodology development based on neutron scattering techniques to “visualize” the complex phenomena. This visualization must integrate scattering experimental analysis, simulation, and theory to provide real space images of such phenomena. And their use in understanding energy systems, medical materials/imaging, and engineering processes is highly promising. Exploratory neutron scattering methodology development for molten salts as energy storage medium will be discussed in the presentation.
