    NEUTRON SCATTERING IN NOVEL MATERIALS
    Proceedings of the Eighth Summer School on Neutron Scattering
    Zuoz, Switzerland, 5 – 11 August 2000

    edited by Albert Furrer (ETH Zurich & Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland)

    This book provides an introduction to the basic principles of neutron scattering and its application to current problems in condensed matter science and technology. Experiments on novel materials are particularly emphasized.
