The quadrennial Asia-Oceania Conference on Neutron Scattering plays a complementary role in the tripolar regional neutron conferences, along with the ACNS (American Conference on Neutron Scattering, organized by NSSA) and the ECNS (European Conference Neutron Scattering, organized by ENSA).
These conferences cover all scientific areas of neutron scattering including fundamental physics, material science, magnetism, chemistry, disordered systems, biology, soft matter, surface/interface science and instrumentation. The scientific programs consist of a plenary lecture, invited lectures, poster presentations and AONSA Prize lecture.
