Scientists discuss neutrons in Japan

Abstract The Neutron Symposium—the annual meeting of the Neutron Scattering Association of Japan (NSAJ) was held inTokai, Japan from December 8–10, 1997. This symposium started in 1992 when NSAJ was established as a representation of the neutron scattering community of Japan. The purpose of this symposium is to gather together to present the latest results of research and to exchange information. Future plans on neutron sciences, not only in Japan but also in Asian countries, are also discussed. (The present president of NSAJ, Y. Fujii (ISSP), will review the activities of NSAJ in a forthcoming issue of Neutron News.)
