Technical Tour
On Thursday 17 March two technical tours are planned for delegates of the RRFM/IGORR 2016 conference:
All available places for the Technical Visits have been taken. It is currently not possible anymore to register for Technical Visits.
Technical Tour to the Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin
The Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin operates two scientific large-scale facilities for research on the structure and function of matter: research reactor BER II for neutron experiments and synchrotron radiation source BESSY II, which generates highly brilliant synchrotron radiation from the terahertz to the X-ray spectrum. Both facilities are equipped with highly specialized sample environments. Experiments can be performed under the most sophisticated conditions like high magnetic fields, extremely low temperatures, or high pressures. The instruments’ continued refinement at the two large-scale facilities is one the Center’s main jobs.
The tour will focus on the Lise-Meitner-Campus and the Neutron Scattering Experiments at the BER II Research Reactor.
Departure from the conference hotel: 9.00
Return at the conference hotel: 13.00
The number of participants for this group is limited to 50.
Technical Tour to the EUREF Campus
The tour will have three different parts:
Introductory Tour „EUREF Campus – An urban district of the future – already today“
The EUREF Campus (www.euref.de) is a model of sustainable construction with carbon-free maintenance and smart energy management systems like the Micro Smart Grid. The campus shows the idea of the intelligent city of tomorrow. The guide will present the history and vision of the campus and its different topics: mobility, energy and green buildings.
