DESCRIPTION:\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\nJoin us in
  Lund for a lunch-to-lunch workshop from Monday (10th) to Wednesday (12th)
  of December!\n\nThe Lund Institute of Advanced Neutron and X-ray Science 
 (LINXS) is organizing its first thematic workshop titled Scattering and Dy
 namics of Flowing Soft Material. The goal is to bring together leading exp
 erts in the field of flows of soft materials\, with a particular focus on 
 neutrons and X-rays\, but also complementary techniques including NMR\, co
 nfocal microscopy\, theory and computer modeling. \n\nTopics\n\n- Polymer
 s\n- Associated systems\n- Colloids\n\nNew instruments and methods can be 
 immersed within the above topics. Each session will have 3-4 invited spea
 kers and the same number of contributed talks. There will also be a poster
  session to encourage student participation. All PhD students should subm
 it an abstract.\n\nInvited speakers\n\nDr. Qian Huang - Chemical Engineer

 of Crete\, Greece\n\nWorkshop Description\n\nSoft matter is a convenient t
 erm encompassing a wide range of materials\, such as polymers\, surfactant
 s\, colloids\, emulsions\, liquid crystals and various biological material
 s. These diverse materials may exhibit time-dependent structures under tra
 nsient or out-of-equilibrium conditions resulting from for example self-as
 sembly processes\, phase transitions or in response to external fields\, s
 uch as flow. These time-dependent or flow-dependent structures may in turn
  influence their viscoelastic behavior or vice versa and be triggered by i
 nstabilities. Shear and extensional flow fields are ubiquitous in the manu
 facture\, processing and use of these everyday materials and yet\, typical
  experimental techniques\, like small angle scattering\, only provide info
 rmation about the quiescent or time-averaged state. The combination of new
  time- and spatial-resolved experimental methods combined with computation
 al and theoretical approaches is required to determine the complex nonline
 ar and time-varying response to deformations which is often also non-homog
 eneous. Thus\, the study of flowing soft matter presents new opportunities
  and challenges of great scientific and technological interest carving out
  the path for new discoveries and innovations of flowing soft materials.\n
